[@isesfox]

I relly like how you explain everything, just like Dr. Berg. Very calm and easy to digest.

[@krankywitch]

Fall vegetables stored well before refrigeration was available because of their starch, and the starch provided needed body fuel to keep warm through the colder months when most people worked outdoors or in unheated factories. These vegetables are not ‘bad’, we’ve just progressed beyond them. Anyone working outdoors in an harsh winter region would still value them.

[@splufford]

Your videos are really easy to understand! I was searching for a diet channel that didn't blind me with science and I think you have the balance about right. Really helpful, thank you.

[@rpan5441]

You nailed this one, Beck. Always refreshing to watch learn incorporate well researched knowledge. Pleasure.

[@markfrank0924]

As always good information, presented in a cogent and efficient manner, no time is ever wasted. No, fluff, just the facts which is really appreciated.

[@francesca7093]

I'm on your 0-1-2-3 Diet and it's working. Thank you Dr. Gillaspy :) - I was eating the wrong food thinking it was light and healthy and I was wrong. You have been a life saver.

[@beckygillaspy]

So great to hear, Francesca!

[@lovelondonmansi1272]

The best explanation I have found so far! You are doing a great job. Keep up the good work. Thanks for sharing this info!

[@khottasikka4700]

Wow, i was confused about starchy and non starchy vegetables. Thank you.

[@aperson2020]

Yes, one of the things i like. Your calm tone. It lowers my BP and raises my NQ - nutrition quotient. 🙂👍💜

[@jamesavickers5961]

Thank you so much I am learning so much about diabetes diets.. I am in the uk and on a Dieabites prevention corse free on the national health..I lost 16 pounds over Christmas wow ..the way you explain nutrition is excellent..I mean this sincerely..I watch all your vlogs thank you Becky grazie Mille ciao ciao

[@mitchellmiller3176]

I just started a non-sugar / starchy food diet. Been trying really hard to find Foods that have complex carbs without all the starch. This definitely was helpful

[@allwaysfarm3087]

Thanks for your simple and easy to follow descriptions/instructions - very useful…

[@BloomLionesstv]

Thank you for all your information, It is always so helpful. Also, the most think that I really appreciated is the simplicity that you explain. I am so grateful to have come across your channel.

[@standstill0641]

Would be really good if you could do a similar clip but on fruit. Which fruit is best for low spiking insulin friendly and which fruit is high spiking insulin fruit. Also a good reminder is vegetables grown underground are normally root and starchy vegetables, vegetables grown above ground are starchy free and insulin friendly.

[@doniseeverett2209]

I really enjoy your videos, this was a great one, as I always wondered what the difference was, thank you

[@Nettsinthewoods]

Thank you Becky, simple and clear. I do miss peas, but isn’t it great that the bulk of the veg is non starchy

[@MrBoxer1200]

I enjoy your content and I also like your wood stove. Just getting started in this lifestyle. Thanks

[@beckygillaspy]

Thanks, James! I wish you the best!

[@reyleon1382]

I wish you would have been my teacher! Well explained and i can tell you care about what you teach. Cheers doc!

[@tonyhowe4104]

Really like your presentations. Im 69 and trying to loose weight and get stronger to maintain bone health. I'm trying to maintain a low carb nutritional lifestyle.....(lets not call it a "diet" because they are seen as short term approaches). Great presentations.........and thanks for getting the lapel microphone ...makes huge difference 😀👍

[@ProactiveMinistries]

Discovered parsnips on a trip in Scotland and WOW - they were delicious.

[@davidkulkarni2949]

It would be very helpful to include “ethnic” food like plantains, “yuca”, etc They are usually deep fried and served with oily food in the same plate… Like pork stew, beef stew, chicken stew. Thank you! ( Olga K.)

[@balasandarkalieannan300]

Great info, Becky! Thank you for all you do 🤗

[@bheegibilli2847]

[@colettecarter7157]

The information that you give is really good becky I really appreciate it I’m trying to change my lifestyle habits and it’s been a day by day thing

[@rosalvamartinez582]

Awesome video... Thank you for sharing your videos

[@LordStanley94]

You are great Becky. Very educational. Thanks. Changed my lifestyle to Keto.

[@deborahs8941]

I discovered jicama low-carb, found air fryer recipes on Pinterest. They were delicious taste, similar to french fries.

[@vernessajameson2687]

Wow. Great information. Thank you Dr.Becks

[@rodolfofarfan6589]

Great info! This cleared things up for me. Thanks so much

[@stuartpierce121]

Thanks like physical demonstration! Thanks again Jennifer 😃

[@gmo709]

Starchy, dense stuff.. limit.. unless running a distance race or something or grocery store is far away and you have no car. Non-starchy.. keep em coming. Got it.

[@fariborzkhorramzadeh5091]

I got a lots of knowledge from yuor Video s. Just thanks alot..... You are the best.

[@apple25481]

We eat starchy vegetabless almost daily for satiety, but I always make sure we eat mostly non-starchy vegetables, also, for fibre.

[@thechickincharge1073]

Once every two week cycle we eat starchy vegetables. We love carrots, rutabagas, spaghetti squash and such, but we eat far more of the non starchy ones. I think it is so important that we understand why the starchy ones are good too, not just why not....

[@graceandbeauty4u]

Your videos are very informative and simple. Great info.

[@judylee3589]

Very helpful and clear. Thank you.

[@selinaserenelli153]

This information is very helpful. I just didn’t want it to be true. I love all vegetables especially the starchy variety. 😲

[@greenacres1739]

Should you deseed your tomatoes and cucumbers before eating do to lectins etc?

[@Anonymous-mk3uk]

thank you so so much!! finally a good explanation

[@LowStarchLife]

Very informative Becky, thank you.

[@raunaq1984]

Beautifully explained Becky , I'm gonna highly recommend everyone to watch share and like this video especially for people like me with very little to no knowledge on what veggies to eat when on a low carb diet .👍🙌

[@beckygillaspy]

Thanks, Raunaq!

[@celiaescalante]

I like soups with non-starchy vegetables. I count my carbs by cups. Milk is 12 grams of carbohydrates, so that's my threshold for a meal or snack. I try to have my fruit in the morning, so I get the most energy when I wake up. Otherwise, I dance at night because of the energy from dinner or late night snack.

[@bettypecoraro8104]

Thanks Dr Becky. Very informative, as usual.

[@palalabssweety7910]

So i made the ryt choice on eating those non starchy veg..

[@gigigo126]

Starchy vegetables have a longer shelf life, can be stored longer in a cool dry place. Is it the sugar that enables them to do that?

[@renae0007]

Thanks for for this video- very helpful

[@LolaCocobanner2024]

This has been so helpful ❤️

[@nynthworld4152]

Dr. Becky what about tomatoes and peppers being nightshade vegetables.?

[@orinyellowhair8278]

Love ur kitchen and fireplace :-) Thank you for the info ... :-)

[@rldr2011]

Thank you for for great information..

[@ialy9]

Thanks for the tricks! Love it

[@susannay.3437]

Very helpful! 🌷❤

[@JenniferEmeryPhotographer]

thanks for this. How does Jicama fall into a category? I read that it is considered a starchy veg, but low in calories/sugar/ fat and high in fiber.

[@DustyCowdog]

Howdy... Curious, on keto, can I eat beans, like pinto, Lima, etc? I love beans! Thanks again and great video. Cheers!

[@beckygillaspy]

They would likely be an issue on keto, but I include them in the low-carb meal plans in my coaching program. The program has meal plans ranging from low-carb to keto because not everyone needs to push their carbs to the keto range.

[@DustyCowdog]

@@beckygillaspy -- I had a feeling, thanks for the quick reply! Kick the bean habit... I'm going to need a bean rehab 😂. Have a good one...

[@peterjensen7533]

Excellent video, I am in school, thank you!

[@kapuly183]

BECKY YOU ARE MY HEROOO!!!!!

[@JustEndah]

Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️

[@MICbubucaca]

How about edamame beans and broad beans? Are they starchy beans or protein beans or vegetable beans?

[@kmc562kmc]

Awesome video. I’m confused about peas. Are frozen peas good or bad.

[@aperson2020]

Yes,

[@abrilia1595]

And, would rice and Quinoa be non starchy? Or they are straight forward carbs? Thank you so much!!

[@dessiereestewart5520]

I love your videos.👍❤

[@abraham3901]

thank you.

[@namubirubarbara5597]

Are beans ,peas and groundunts starchy More so r they good for weight lose.thxs

[@astronaut205]

excellent video 🙏 ty

[@rachkate76]

Basically avoid below ground vegetables....

[@beckygillaspy]

Hi Rach, yes, root vegetables tend to be higher in starch.

[@sonarsphere]

Radishes, onions, garlic, carrots and beets are below ground and they are non-starchy.

[@carusmike]

yes, exactly. Lower percentage of carbs naturally increases the percentages of proteins and fats. So what level of protein do you eat? What a wonderful study that was..... "A Reduced Ratio of Dietary Carbohydrate to Protein Improves Body Composition and Blood Lipid Profiles During Weight Loss in Adult Women" Excellent study. Conclusion? This study demonstrates that increasing the proportion of protein to carbohydrate in the diet of adult women has positive effects on body composition, blood lipids, glucose homeostasis and satiety during weight loss. Wonderful. And very very dangerous. See all those vegetables, I eat them all (except canned). I'm overweight but now losing weight fast, only 4 months in. Sure I could lose weight faster on a low carb diet. But, and here is the difference, I want to increase drastically my chances of living a long life. That is why I eat all those lovely carbs. Because I do not dismiss professor T. Colin Campbell. That's why. Oh, and I do not want to inflict emotional anguish on my loved ones, either.

[@DannyB-cs9vx]

@@sonarsphere Carrots raise my blood sugar, so if they don't have starch, they have sugar.

[@sandracarli1110]

The problem is... without healthy starchy vegetables, we tend to binge on fast food.

[@1019caveman]

Yes, I think it's a pretty good rule of thumb to only eat veg that grows above ground. Even onions, which are not starchy are higher in net carbs. But they are the only veg that I can't do without. Imagine making a curry or a chilli without onions? Still, I've lost 20lbs.

[@mariamtee]

That’s exactly what the Jains taught us thousands of years ago

[@hello991122]

Fried eggplants are great

[@joeadd5911]

Thank you!!!

[@annettemonkey1998]

Very informative video, Thankyou. However I agree with Dr McDougall, high starch program is far better and safer.

[@alijaved3964]

Great

[@cherylgaston479]

Hi was wondering why you had a can of corn there, instead of on the cob ,can veg has too much salt in them them

[@michaelrollhaus7875]

Once you hit a higher glycemic level does it make much of a difference? You will need the same amount of time to get back to a lower level of insulin? Love your videos Thanks DR BECKY

[@beckygillaspy]

Hi Michael, theoretically, you could argue that the higher a food is on the glycemic index, the longer it would take for your blood sugar and insulin to return to normal. However, there would be a lot of factors involved including how insulin sensitive the person is and what other foods they ate at the same time.

[@michaelrollhaus7875]

Is it ok to take a long time to eat lunch for example? I am doing intermittent fasting and lunch (approx 12-15 hours fast) I eat in my car or at my desk sometimes for an hour and half (savoring my food) should I eat more quickly to get my insulin back down? Thanks

[@beckygillaspy]

I don't think eating slowly will cause a noticeable issue for you.

[@savisingh6998]

Thank you, now I know a lot more how to differentiate starchy from non starchy vegetables.

[@shobhachhabria-morant2091]

I thought pumpkin though.high on Glycemic Index has low glycemic load. Please do comment .

[@addpuppets9326]

where do you place Spaghetti squash? Is radish closer to carrots in terms of starch?

[@TroysHobbies]

Thanks Doc!

[@iceboogie827]

Is honey better to use THAN sugar for a substitute

[@thearb2003]

what are your thoughts on frozen Veggies?

[@beckygillaspy]

They are fine.

[@JuanGomez-vt1mi]

Thank you mi love

[@spottedbybarbie]

how about jicama?

[@myknittingblog]

Of course it's the starchy ones that I love the most!

[@bmangla68]

Thanks for the information

[@carapolley9354]

Thanks

[@janegnojek5734]

What is the rule for fruits? I notice there is no mention of fruits in these videos. I know they have sugar, but it isn't glucose. So...what do we do?

[@beckygillaspy]

Hi Jane, here is my video on fruit: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGqueWiYm52WfsU

[@sharonnunn3385]

Great tips! Is there a reason my kids only want starchy veggies? So hard to get the others into them without protest.

[@beckygillaspy]

Well, starchy vegetables are sweeter :).

[@litahsr.8226]

my starchy food is spiking thanks for teaching on the good food vs the bad food, this here looks good but chicken would be prefect with it 3:48
