Orange Efficiency w/ Rorion Gracie

[@iFlowWithTheGo]

WOW even the Gracie family have made eating an orange efficient!

[@benbrooks98ify]

More like the biggest waste of an orange I’ve ever seen. The pulp is delicious!!

[@salavila9244]

I'm in awe of how I can experience what it must have been like to grow up in the Gracie household through my computer monitor. Coming from a background of dysfunction, I did not get a sense of life, lifestyle or family. At the age of almost 40, I decided to join a local Gracie training facility, am now at my 3rd stripe on my white belt and have lost about 28lbs, and even adapting to the Gracie lifestyle because I feel this is something invaluable I can pass on to my child, something I wasn't given nor my siblings, who were as lost as me. I use these videos along with my regular training to have a better sense of jiu jitsu and the Gracie lifestyle. I regret I should have started a lot younger, but I need something..i have nothing else but the Gracies to look up to.

[@graciegjj]

Nice! And even Rorion did a video of him feeding a baby, I would like more tips from them on raising a child, the diet part basically! :D Good luck, anytime is a good time to start something good in your life, of course young is best most of the time because we think quicker but hey we are all going to get old so we should not just stop but keep going best we can! Be well!

[@Delta3angle]

It takes me 20 minutes just to peel one of those!!! It took him 10 seconds!!! You need to post a Gracie breakdown on just peeling oranges:)

[@RyleHN]

I could watch this forever.

[@Diego-wm3ey]

It's the same clip twice. You only see him eating one orange.

[@TheAlvarotz]

why dont eat them complete?

[@CobraUniverse]

Cos he is an idiot

[@Ascension314]

So just drink fresh squeezed orange juice?

[@lehman]

why no pulp?

[@allroundp4p]

why did he leave half of the orange uneaten?

[@ChipKempston]

Ok, serious question. How is this different from drinking a big glass of Tropicana?

[@maexpert11]

Is that a challenge to an orange eating contest?

[@nclaxboy99]

its because he is using the cutco paring knife. let me know if you want one

[@Eastbay007]

Yes, I deviate from the Gracie method a little by using a juicer. And I usually drink about 12 oranges worth of juice once a week. Breakfast is the best time to do it because that way you can ensure that your evening meal is fully digested. Believe it or not, it really seems to help the urinary system a bit. My wife had bladder problems for years until starting the Gracie diet. Hasn't had an incident since.

[@itubecollection1623]

What's wrong with just eating the orange?

[@cev17pr]

I really hope you compost!

[@kkplfc]

is he actually eating the orange or just sucking the juice out of it?

[@cobeetrice]

Does Rorion eat 100% raw food? or is he vegetarian?

[@frigginjoe]

There's plenty of pulp ingested eating this way (when you eat frickin' 18 of them) and I'm thinking he doesn't eat the outer part due to it being a group D food, not to be mixed with what comprises everything but the juice and pulp.

[@HoodBridgeBolo]

Can a person with diabetes eat 18 oranges? That's my main issue with the Gracie Diet, how good is it for ppl with diabetes.

[@Maeggoel]

Well with only having limited knowledge about the Gracie diet, it actually seems to be perfect for jiujitsu. I'll say you need a lot more protein (as in a A LOT more) and less fat. They hit the carbs pretty good, but they could cut that down too. Why is it good for BJJ? Good fats!!! What is the most common injuries in judo and jiujitsu in the long term? Joint-problems. What fixes it (or helps atleast)? Good fats that can grease the joints and the celle-membranes.

[@feeldontbelieve6577]

So what wrong with the flesh of the orange? Is it hard or harder to digest the flesh?

[@39Hundred]

18 oranges every day?

[@stalemate225]

lol if you dont want to eat the pulp why didnt you juice it?

[@alexycho]

Why not juice juice the oranges?

[@syncopoly]

Why don't you eat the orange, instead of sucking the juice? Is the solid part bad for you?

[@beginwitheuclid]

I believe the reason he does that is because he can get fiber from a lot of other sources. The fiber from the orange isn't bad but if you have fiber from other meals in the day you might not want it from the orange.

[@syncopoly]

Makes sense. Thanks!

[@babiioup]

maybe he dont like the fiber of the orange, some people are like him. me i eat all of my orange but like the grapefruit i cannot, i eat it slowly and just the inside of it so their last only the white part

[@mikedelgadillo4647]

+sabrina suunie The white of grapefruit is particularly healthful - and bitter. I got used to it.

[@Actueel68]

How's the enamel holding up?

[@MrAnonymousboxer]

According to Tropicana it takes "18 oranges to make 64 oz. (1.893 L) of juice". Rorion has consumed that same amount of product the freshest and most food secure way possible. Using a juicer like the Champion may be more efficient though, but it would have too be tested. It would be interesting to see how long it took Rorion from start to finish to consume these 18 oranges the way he did in the video vs. Rorion putting these oranges through the juicer and drinking the juice.

[@johnnyboy6429]

Gracieacademy, I was wondering how often any of the strict Gracie Diet practitioners get sick (seeing as there is nothing but healthy foods)

[@Nola213]

It says once a week for breakfast. I don't know if he ever eats them for lunch. But I don't think he eats 18 oranges everyday. If so..., that's alot of oranges.

[@1iguerra]

know what you're talking about before posting about it please.

[@Eastbay007]

12 Oranges may sound like a lot, but I can usually pick up a bag of 12 oranges at Wal-Mart for about $4. Pretty cheap for a meal, when you think about it.

[@pitbylllson]

what is this video good for? can he upload when takes a dump aswell?

[@NoviceGenius]

Those oranges looked really good/fresh... I am jelly.

[@lambosnicko]

it contains fibre which fills you up a lot more. he wants juice which takes longer to get you to 80% full which means you get a lot more vitamins from all the juice. he can get his fibre from other meals in the day.

[@peterbrown3157]

if rener made this video it would be 58 minutes long

[@meditationtears6725]

Helio gracie era vegetariano... ele tem um video falando sobre

[@ImZeaH]

So basically he eats 19 oranges for breakfast?

[@Eastbay007]

You can eat the pulp (if you need the fiber), they're just believers of the idea that you can fill your stomach with more nutrition by just taking in the juice. I just peel the oranges and juice them for my group D meal. I try to get as much out of the oranges as possible.

[@MrAnonymousboxer]

Rorion is doing his impression of the "Human Champion Juicer":) 18 oranges seems like a lot, but it takes about that many oranges to make 1L of fresh squeezed no water added orange juice.

[@AndyWillyRuss92]

Eating an orange is just like a successful marriage.

[@FrankVarvik]

I was like, why is he in such a rush eating that thing, and after the "18 oranges later" i got it, would have taken a normal person forever

[@kramer911]

Interesting. I will use that circular cutting technique. its way more efficent

[@Kev80ification]

I'd hate to have to share a bathroom after Rorion. After all those oranges he could pebble dash the toilet for you!

[@NeroMC]

18?? Porque 18 laranjas, campeão??

[@HealthyMBS1]

If that is how Rorion eats oranges, that is now how I eat oranges.

[@macaluso48]

I prefer to juice 8-9 naval oranges makes about 1 liter aka 4 cups drink it slow I have acidic meal once a week on the morning

[@Veraplay]

I wish I could eat that many oranges but my teeth start irritating bc of the sugar.

[@Starking_45]

I wish I could incorporate the Gracie diet into my life lol

[@Eastbay007]

That your last evening meal is digested is a very important Gracie Diet concept since oranges are a "Group D" food - not to be eaten in combination with anything else.

[@TheChampionInMe]

I have no idea what you just said.

[@ShenaniganMaster]

Now that is a cool guy, and great way to eat oranges.

[@Noone-rt6pw]

Everyone is looking at the J.D. Rockefeller of Jiu Jitsu in the 21st Century. Question, what do you do with a Hulk Hogan that's a blackbelt in Jiu Jitsu?

[@IamJ3RSY]

that exactly what i do when i eat oranges. but i cant eat 18

[@JesseMMA91]

That's how I use to eat Oranges when I was little....I thought I was the only one who did it that way lol

[@MrMZaccone]

I don't claim it has too much acid, just too little protein.

[@Yophillips3272]

I dont do this but I chew the slices and spit the pulp out, just searched to see if I was the only 1 lol

[@Tony007corp]

I love the Gracies but a lot of their meals make me wonder about blood sugar 18 oranges is a lot of sugar i mean sure you'll have energy and its natural but its still a lot also The Acai bowl they eat gives me energy but its like 60% frozen grapes more sugar...i wonder if any of the older graces had diabetes.

[@j23araluce]

i love all the Gracies!!!

[@wladfiggs]

can't hear anything

[@keelanwalker]

actually, 18 oranges is really not good for you, many nutritionist will tell argue that too much acid changes the ph of the body...

[@natures4us]

Whats the point?

[@TheCajunTNPer]

Yes but citric acid is not what nutritionists worry about very much. Fresh orange juice contains only 9 grams of citric acid per liter (0.9%) which isnt much. 18 oranges is still far healthier than a single serving of coke which contains enough phosphoric acid to dissolve a steak in 48hrs. Any cola also contains high amounts of dissolved CO2 which is very acidic and requires Calcium from the bones to buffer, and that is the big problem.

[@rileyisamazin]

oh a kickflip? WE GOT A BADASS OVER HERE!

[@jeffreymullins5392]

I tried, and I puked after 6

[@nickboyle3349]

insulin pump not included

[@AFiB1999]

You got that right!

[@korinstower202]

the juice in the carton alot more sugar and preservatives

[@lightningmunk]

The shirt definitely fits with the theme of that breakfast: patience :)

[@BenU314159]

WTF.... 18 oranges?

[@lambosnicko]

The gracies recomend no more than 1 - 2 acidic fruit meals a week.

[@billbradleymusic]

I love it!

[@Jussi138]

I think that, an easier way is to cut the orange into four segments without peeling the the fruit and then suck the juices... that way we ate oranges in elementary school. :)

[@mynameisyourname1739]

Comma splice.

[@graciegjj]

Yeah that is the way I just did, but then peeled the orange off the peal too :) easy peasy!

[@Julipapa]

This really rustles my Jimmies Why not EAT them??? (like everything but the peel?) I honestly don't understand

[@Nola213]

I thought they were kidding when they wrote "18 oranges later". I couldn't eat that many oranges. But I love drinking a lot of orange juice.Most definitely not as good for you, but better than nothing.

[@bdglfr07]

why not buy a gallon of orange juice with pulp

[@Serjohn]

relax RORION noone is going to steal your orange !!

[@Maeggoel]

And it is not speculations - I'm just talking about basic macro nutrition. Something EVERYBODY should know, but instead use way to much time reading Lady's magazine about diets.

[@j.campbellscmb1740]

You have CutCo knives, it's the Hélio of knives

[@Eastbay007]

Don't knock it until you try it. The Gracies have a well-documented history of living long and healthy lives.

[@cruciferousvegetable]

Chew your juice and drink your food. Fruits and veggies is the way to go!

[@zroguemin]

wtf 18 oranges later. i eat like 4-5 and i feel sick

[@Stoogemeister420]

i have no idea why im watching a man eat oranges

[@MikeDeanOfficials]

i love oranges. But I understand it can affect some people negatively if intollerant to acid in fruit. Way better than raw eggs imo haha

[@mikedelgadillo4647]

Introducing the new Gracie Mouth Juicing Machine.

[@scrego]

Hes not "eating" the oranges hes only sucking the juice. The meat he throws away. Basically, hes just having freshly squeezed oj.

[@donkeydonkey33]

eat the pulp bro

[@lo0nytnt]

question i have is...they juice everything..they not this lol

[@lambosnicko]

i have tried the body building rubbish before i was introduced to GJJ and the GD and it sucked. i was always tired and energyless. At the end of the day im yet to see any food regime that has been practised for as long as the gracie diet has. The effects of the diet are clearly around for everyone to see, helio and carlos gracie lived well into their nineties, perfectly healthy, still doing the jui-jitsu and could look after themselves. say what you want but its all just speculation at the end.

[@199jl]

holy shit u have the skills man..... guess i gotta work on my orange skills as well as my ju jitsu

[@Cloud9Kennels]

JUICING WITHOUT A JUICER.. I DO THIS ALL THE TIME!!

[@Brucelee-pv6uf]

Dammmmn bro 8 oranges ❤

[@RenoScruggs]

18 oranges wow

[@katodmx007]

very well said. this should be top the comment.

[@CocoAndFish]

MORE VIDEOS!!! DO A DAILY VLOG?

[@chrisSosa1]

18 oranges? thats one expensive diet,,,

[@chavamma]

It all goes back to their diet its a great diet in my opinion in terms of living a long life they know what the system does to most of the produce, meats & drinks this country consumes so therefore restrict their diet to raw organic content which is phenomenal people should be more educated... & Yes I know I went off topic just it does reffer to your question. Pardon -Kind Regards-

[@fightinginsight]

U mean the best way to drink an orange? 😁

[@bethanybirch3927]

Southern Cali oranges are the best.

[@jefbazulbasilio4448]

Cara quer ensinar a chupar laranja... É sério?
