Which of JC’s burning questions did you want answered during this episode? We’ll share the results on this week’s Instagram Live!

[@auntkathy9141]

I made a huge change in my food intake a year ago. My body was in a crisis and I hurt constantly. And had 2-3 migraines a week. NOW I eat No processed foods, no glutens: only fresh or frozen fruits , chicken, fish, eggs, whole wheat. I’ve had only 2 migraines in a year! My head is clearer and mental health is balanced. Now I’m adding an exercise program. Feeling so good! Food is medicine!!!

[@jts3505]

I love Mayim's frank honesty about not wanting to live to 120 after dealing with autoimmune and chronic issues for most of life thus far. I don't think someone who hasn't dealt with what we have can even fathom the pain and challenges that come from every direction. My health is teetering at 48, but I am now under water with bills and have to work, while being a single mother. I have tried all of the things for my issues. I have no money, time or energy for more.

[@StoryTimeMagic13-r7k]

Hey Mayim! I love your channel. I've been following you for a young time. I want you to know I come to your channel a lot especially when I'm feeling down because hearing these stories still give me hope that everything isn't over for me yet. I suffer from severe inferiority complex❤❤❤

[@kalifiael3826]

Try doing positive affirmations, practicing gratitude, and hypnotherapy ❤

[@jadomonell]

I think a big problem is the lack of time and money that financially strained families experience. Who can afford (financially and time-wise) to eat whole foods? It’s not easy in the unites states

[@ReikiRosie]

I love Dr. Hyman and you too Dr. Bialak! ❤❤❤

[@lisabaugus8360]

Fantastic!!! I have recently began watching Barbara O'Neill with Misty Mountain Retreat. She explains the questions Jonathan has. After seeing her lectures I want to go to Australia just to visit her retreat. *** no matter the cost.

[@MissSothePeacefulObserver]

I was just diagnosed pre-diabetic recently, so I need to work on my weight. I have no desire to live longer, but I want to be healthier while I'm here to avoid more issues as I get older.

[@brockreynolds870]

Also, keep in mind, "pre diabetic" has different definitions if you are going by the American Diabetic Association guidelines, or by WHO guidelines. And all these guidelines have been LOWERED 15 years ago, so more people would fall into that gategory, and more people can be MEDICATED for it.

[@Sigma1_969]

@@MissSothePeacefulObserver sorry about your diagnosis, if you wouldn't mind sharing.. how much do you weigh, how old are you, and how tall are you.. I'm asking because I helped somebody I knew who weighed 640 lbs lose 200 lbs in 8 months, he was on a diet of fast food, had clogged arteries and was mostly bed ridden.. he was laughed at by medical staff.. and was given less than a year to live. I put him on a strict diet.. he lived another 7 years.. unfortunately the damage had already been done. I am a chef and would be happy to give you advice.

[@christinakoch2738]

Another great episode, Mayim! ❤️ I appreciate that you get into topics that a lot of people don’t talk about

[@coolbreeze5683]

Eating a basic healthy diet, getting a good night's sleep and getting out in pure nature used to be accessible to everyone. Now, our soil is so leached of nutrients that even eating fruits and vegetable only give us 50% of the nutrients it used to just decades ago. The food that is more accessible is full of chemicals. Most areas have so much noise and light pollution that sleep isn't easy for some people either, plus the common stresses of life. There are less green spaces and the skies are full of smog anyway so breathing that in isn't good for our health either. Why would someone want to live a long life on this planet where money and economies are worth more than quality of health for everyone and every living thing.

[@Sigma1_969]

This is a great subject for me.. I am a chef, have been for over 25 years, it is so difficult to get people to transition from major processed food to healthy eating.. I've had many difficulties trying to get people to understand how unhealthy most food is, especially fast food, which i find the most disgusting of all, knowing what goes into all that crap. However, what bothers me the most is this.. all that bad food is there for a reason, bad food leads to chronic bad health which leads to people needing bad medications which feeds the pharmaceutical companies which feed the elites who own the companies who rely on people eating that bad food to help line their pockets so they can get richer. Soda pop drinks, potato crisps/chips, chocolate bars, cakes, pastries.. just to name a few, they are all designed to make you addicted and unhealthy. Processed foods are full of sugars and salts and other preservatives. Babies and young children need certain fats in their diets to help their bodies grow, I believe we have been brainwashed into thinking it is alright to eat whatever we want as long as we exercise.. that is wrong, moderation is also wrong.. it is not o.k. to eat ,say, McDonald's and then go to the gym to try and work it out, it is more harmful to do that. We need to do our own "brainwashing" from an early age, I say 6 is a good age to start engineering our children to believe that fast food/processed foods are dangerous to us. I won't go on.. this message is long enough and I don't want to bore you all with my theories, so I'll end with this.. be better to your bodies and brain, pass that on to your children and someday, hopefully soon, we will have a healthy world where everyone is accustomed to eating and living well. Good luck.

[@Sue.M]

You are so not boring, I’ve read every word. One day come back and tell me your theories !!!

[@kalifiael3826]

Teach children from birth, like I did! My son was never given soda as a child because I prefer water and know how bad it is. He's now 20, never liked soda and the only one of his 3 roommates that even knows how to cook simple, healthy meals. Teach your children how to cook so they won't rely on fast food when they go to college or move out!

@@kalifiael3826 I humbly applaud your efforts.. congratulations on being a wonderful parent.

[@louisbonilla6780]

It was great that Jonathan asked Dr Hyman for sn overview because he was right I was overwhelmed with the fact that one of the secrets to health is a lot of mathematics - great episode Mayim ❤

[@danastonerock9987]

This is all really great stuff and I do like Dr. Mark, but at times there are those typical doctor 'bedside manners' that come up for me, or just in general, how certain doctor's react or respond to people/patient's and how humans go about things. When he kept saying " it's really not that hard"...it is for many, many folks. socioeconomic status, environments, lifestyle, habits, all the things Mayim brought up. We can't just dismiss all of those factors and not back up " it's really not that hard" with nothing. There is definitely the side of things where , yes, people are ill-informed, mis-informed, have no support by family or friends, resources, etc. That certainly plays a role in trying to get healthier or get into better habits/routines. But I really appreciate Mayim's very first reply back to Dr. Mark in the beginning of the episode about , "well, no, do you think people have ears for nothing" ? There are impediments for sure! she really did put him in his place and it was very necessary to do that.

[@genealvivergara955]

would never skip a dr mayim bialik video

[@thunderbirduk]

Really great to see the Lue Elizondo episode. Being well into the UAP topic for many years, it's great to see a scientist like you come at it with an open mind, humour and respect, and was a nice change from UAP podcasts in a way, though they're all fab. It looked like he really enjoyed it too. Nice work Mrs xx

I've had quite a few ancestors who've lived into their late 90's to past 100+ years. Hopefully that's a good sign. I have to kick a horrible habit and I'm working on it. I'm meditating more and more active which is a good thing. 10:59

I'm calling out that there's a wait list, I had no code and was able to sign up within minutes of being on the wait list 😂😂 I don't always subscribe to what he says but I love listening to him, he gets you thinking and questioning in a good way (for me). I like to think I'm a healthy skeptic.

[@cathyray6030]

Thank you! I agree that the formula I grew up with: eat healthy whole foods, exercise, and 8 hours of sleep is the way to go for a long and productive life! And, I would add: moderation in all thungs... 🙏🙂❤

[@miladylaughalot]

You are what you eat. Health and wellness begins with the food you put in your mouth. Whole Foods and no refined sugars. Pay a little more now on healthy food so you don’t pay it later for meds and doctor visits hospital stays because you’re fighting disease and frailty.

[@brockreynolds870]

Also, keep in mind, "pre diabetic" has different definitions if you are going by the American Diabetic Association guidelines, or by WHO guidelines. And all these guidelines have been LOWERED 15 years ago, so more people would fall into that gategory, and more people can be MEDICATED for it. The threshold for Type2 Diabetes today, according to the ADA, is above 125 fasting blood sugar level. 30, 40, 50 years ago, the thresehold was above 140! Big Pharma lobbies to get these guidelines lowered so more people will be eilgible for their medication.

[@randyholloway920]

Did Dr Hyman say when Function will be available outside the continental US?

[@pitasag123]

For me it's both fight or flight as well as the food (eating vegetarian mostly) has been not very good. I thought I was eating healthier and I literally can't hold in a salad w/o running to the restroom. 😢 I'm a work in progress for sure 3:45

Sorry but this doesn't really apply to poor people. And most of us are poor.

[@VeronicaVeroVero]

I'm poor and my family and I eat healthy. It's actually MORE affordable to eat healthy than it is eating all the processed and boxed stuff. Unless you shop at Whole Foods or eat all organic. We don't. The poor people who live in what are known as "food deserts" where they don't have access to healthy food because not only do they live in those zones; they most likely don't have transportation to reach healthy food......those are the only "poor " people who don't have a CHOICE.

[@karenkingrey6142]

Thank you.

[@kar0047]

Yes this all absolutely does apply to poor people… coming from a fellow poor person.

[@heidiiiiiiii]

​@@VeronicaVeroVero ​ agreed...I'd say it's a safe bet to say people don't stay satisfied/satiated/full on cheap processed food, so they eat more of it. Therefore, it costs more to eat processed. People can spend a few dollars on beans, rice, and frozen fruits/vegetables and make many meals. A pack of meat/protein of choice can be portioned out across multiple meals. People overeat, they don't portion so they run through food quicker than they need to. People don't experiment with their meals so they'll always think poor means you can't eat well. A bag of rice and beans can go a long way. Many poor people cook, my mom did when she actually did it. Poor doesn't equate to not knowing how to do something. Sometimes you just have to plan more or be more resourceful, willing to learn/experiment.

[@brittanywilcox7377]

Mayim, I enjoy your show, but this is blatant fear mongering. And while I hate the word ableist, it's appropriate here. A store bought fruit smoothie preserved with vitamin C to improve shelf life is considered ultra processed. Come on, seriously. People with disabilities of all kinds are the ones reaching for simple, affordable, ready to eat options. This discussion does not include the reality of disorders like ARFID, income restrictions, or the limitations of those who may not be able to cook or exercise for a variety of reasons. I expect better from a woman who claims to be a scientist.
