Very underrated channel. Love the content, Jonas.

[@suecollins3246]

Jonas, I _really_ enjoy your videos! Just keep them coming!

[@annamanuelle2699]

Once again an amazing video Jonas😍! What do you think about Dr Sebi’s statement that “the environmental factors of Africa and the general lifestyle supported the predetermined state of homeostasis in the body of a plant-centered diets of the early Africans, and that the reliance on meat was introduced by the Neanderthal emigrants, for their lack of appropriate climate to accomplish such diet? I became particularly curious, because a lot of his work revolves more or less around the Terrain Theory, only that you two have very contrasting statements, that are both just as intelligible. I would also love more videos on the Terrain Theory! Hugs from Brazil🤩

Hello Anna thanks your comment, glad you are enjoying my content! I have a lot of respect for Dr. Sebi and think he had a lot of good ideas, however when it comes to the plant based diet, I couldn't disagree more with him. No homo sapiens evolved on a plant based diet, and especially not Africans. Take a look at some of the indigenous African tribes like the Masai, who also happen to be some of the healthiest, tallest and most athletic people in the world. They almost exclusively live off of meat, dairy and other animal products. As I say in the video, I am NOT against plants, and I enjoy them a lot myself, and maybe some people can even benefit from a plant based diet in the short term, but long term they will inevitably become sick and malnourished. You can see this with Dr. Sebi himself, he did not look healthy towards the end of his life, and is showing very clear and obvious signs of malnourishment from years on a vegan diet. Hope this is helpful 😄

This channel has low views but deep debates. Keep it up!

Great video!

Jonas you're the man. Keep the healthpills coming! XD

Do probiotics in kefir make the vitamins and minerals in plant foods more bioavalible?

[@jonas_westh]

To a certain extent yes, but not anywhere near the levels of animal foods.

[@maxdecleyn]

How would you have been eating animals during the period in which you did not have the tools to catch or prepare them? In either religion (evolution or creation) this seems to be a problem.

[@blackprotestant6856]

Great videos. Keep in mind that animal products are to be eaten raw. Raw, uncooked, unpasteurized meat, eggs, milk, honey, etc... See also books by Aajonous Vanderplanitz.

What are your thoughts on honey and rice? Thanks

[@jonas_westh]

Both are very good sources of carbohydrate energy and if you go with Raw honey it even has some probiotics in there to feed your gut. Very important that you go organic, especially with the rice, otherwise it can be a chemical bomb. I consume both of these relatively often.

Hey so I was thinking about the animals that do eat grasses and such, they get the nutrients out of that food through the fermentation process usually through multiple stomach chambers. So I was wondering if humans could be more successful on a vegan or vegetarian diet if they fermented most of their food? I'm personally not interested in trying the diets, but lately I've been having more family and friends asking me questions about nutrition and health.

[@jonas_westh]

You are absolutely correct, fermenting plant foods is the best way to remove the antinutrients, and make the plant precursors more available. That said animal nutrition will always be superior, and contain many important compounds that are simply impossible to get from plants. Short term vegan/vegetarian diets can work well, because you remove a lot of negatives (like junk food, refined sugar etc.), but long term you will be malnourished, and have serious health issues.

Time to buy an omega supplement. You have any suggestions?

[@jonas_westh]

I would highly reccommend a good cod liver oil, it can be powerfull stuff and is filled with omega-3, but also other nutrients. If you are in the U.S I have heard good things about the fermented cod liver oil from this company: www.greenpasture.org/

[@roebbiej]

@@jonas_westh I'm from the Netherlands so I'll have to find a source myself. But thanks so much, your channel is an amazing find! I'll be checking out your website as well.

Hello Jonas, first let me tell you that your videos are interesting, I would like you to guide me nutritionally in a conversation, but unfortunately I am not fluent in English. I imagine you are British or Australian because of your accent. I think that now there are hidden interests of certain powerful people in humans becoming vegans and creating a population addicted to unhealthy food. I have certain doubts, it is clear that grains, seeds and certain plants have antinutrients, but what about ancestral foods such as quinoa, fonio, chia seeds, amaranth seeds, sesame, cocoa. I am Central American, we have varieties of cocoa, cocoa is high in tannins which is an antinutrient, but according to studies, the Mayans fermented the beans, roasted them to prepare drinks. Now it is said that cocoa has high concentrations of antinutrients, the Westorn Price Foundation talks about a good way to eliminate antinutrients is fermentation, soaking, etc. In the case of oats, quinoa, amaranth, beans, leave them to soak in an acid medium such as lemon juice, vinegar or whey, the soaking will vary depending on each grain or seed. in the case of almonds, walnuts, they are soaked with salt. Although there are studies that these antinutrients are reduced to a good level, they are not completely removed. What about the quinoa, chia seeds? When indigenous Incas or Aztecs consumed it in their time, past civilizations knew what they were doing using soaking, fermentation or in the case of cocoa the Mayans used fermentation in cocoa beans, now I feel discouraged because I can't find what things I can eat and which ones no, I usually eat cocoa nibs or quinoa (soaking), plants such as chard, spinach.I try to soak them as well and use a little hot water, in order to lower antinutrients, but do not steam them so as not to lose certain nutrients, although now I combine between raw and cooked. Now I am afraid of losing nutrients due to the fact of eating certain foods, apart from digestive enzyme supplements, when we are not able to digest fats, carbohydrates or proteins well, and we cannot be able to absorb all those nutrients, I do not know up to where it is necessary to be able to be necessary to supplement ourselves and not fall into a false trap of certain millionaire industries so that we buy their products such as multivitamins, protein powders, etc.

[@jonas_westh]

Yes you are correct, the best way to consume grains, seeds and nuts is to ferment, soak or sprout them, and this is exactly what ancient indegenous groups understood and did. For example I myself eat oats almost everyday, but I always soak them for atleast 12 hours in good water, and apple cider vinegar. However even civilizations who ate high amounts of these grains, understood that you didn't want to eat a lot of them at the same time. These grains are great as a side dish, and source of caloric/carbohydrate energy, however animal nutrition is where you are going to be getting the vital nutrition your body needs. So keep it balanced, and make sure you have enough animal nutrition in your diet, and you will be fine with some properly prepared grains.
