Thanks 👍

[@katipohl2431]

Cruciferaceae family, some tubers and storage roots, brown mushrooms, okra, dark bitter greens like arugula, swiss chard etc. ....

[@chezsonson]

Happy to hear that most of these foods (mushrooms, dark bitter greens, root vegetables, ochra) are very common everyday foods in Asia. We grew up eating these on a daily basis, thinking that we were deprived because we couldn't afford to eat meat and cheese.

[@pattyberryman3037]

Thank you Dr Gundry for your amazing work.

[@Edlas22158]

Thanks, I love your videos and follow your diet. I have changed the way I ate totally and feel much better.

[@maricarmenlira4927]

All the videos you made are super informative. Thanks Dr. Gundry

[@mohammadaminkawosa2544]

It is highly appreciated that you listed out the 5 vegetables for good health. While discussing the cruciferous group of vegetables, you said that overload of cruciferous vegetable causes Thyroid suppression. But you did not say how much is more. Please specify the quantity in grams of uncooked form one must take daily. That would be useful, otherwise it looks ambiguous. . You have not included bitter gourd in the group of bitter dark green vegetables. please clear , why? I am from a distant corner of world and your podcasts are amazing and very helpful. Thanks. May anyone else also clear the point.

[@mgsa5722]

Doubt he knows the Quantity himself. Too much wud be if u r eating the crucif everyday. Bitter gourd is not available all over d world so Dr Grundy never ate them probably. But u shud eat them if u get them

[@happydays3678]

Just common sense. Depending on amounts, you could eat a little every day, or a decent portion several times a week. No set amounts here.

[@atmology7]

Koreans don't eat gourds. Since the past, the plant has been considered not to eat. The main ingredient of kimchi is cross fig vegetables. No matter how much you eat, cross-fig vegetables do not adversely affect your body. We've eaten it for thousands of years and verified it.

[@slvalive]

I lost close to 28 pounds (since October 2022) after reading your book....I eat a lot of veggies on your yes list....but still have some chicken and ground turkey on weekends....working at getting off the meat...feel better...no bloating...feel more empty....hopefully will stick to it....

Hmm... In researching my dogs liver cancer I ran across information stating that frozen broccoli no longer contains the beneficial myrosinase/sulforphane enzymes? They're destroyed by the temperatures attained in the blanching process for freezing. I love your response?

[@snackwelln7292]

Dear Doctor, do you have any type of from pdf file or video where you talk about the cooking time for beans, tomato, pepper, potato in pressure cooker please ?

[@linnemarchand1628]

You can find the instant pot prep and cooking times for a variety of beans on page 232 of The Plant Paradox Family Cookbook. Also try online.

[@BeckyMalicsiAACCCFL]

Dr Gundry thank you for all these informations. I have been eating them and I feel good and healthy I look younger too than most of the seniors. I do exercise too since . Love all these 4 vegetables Greetings from Orlando Florida.

[@lucysphotosfromar]

Met a lady who was also in line for a Chinese Food pick up. I told her I talked the cook into just Woking my veggies with almost no oil, no salt or other seasonings (broccoli, onions, cabbage, mushrooms, cauliflower, etc.) since I hate to cook. She suggested I try MUSTARD on the broccoli. I did and it's fantastic. Zero calories and gives the veggies the zip they need.

[@jimreese1520]

Thank you!

[@2coryman]

Excellent info, thanks much dr Gundry

[@camperjack2620]

Thanks for the tip about eating raw carrots and not too many cruciferous.

[@CaseyJones-yj5kn]

Go to your nearest Asian store and get bittergourd…wow…very bitter but known for its health properties. Mixing it with eggs is probably the most common dish 😍

[@sundarr7497]

In one of your videos, you have mentioned how good green banana is for your gut. ( obviously, you consider green banana as a fruit) In India, raw banana is consumed as a vegetable. We cook it and make curry out of it. From my experience , I can vouch this does wonders to one's gut. Thank you for making me realize the value of our traditional food in South India.

[@yolandafonseca5900]

Dr. Tomatoes question. Take away the skin and seeds in tomatoes good for you ?

[@Angrymobs62]

Love Love Love the fruit! 🍅

[@MarkShinnick]

That's what's he said as to removing the lecten harm.. Also referring to Italian law.

[@alwaysright5901]

Yes, at a minimum. Dr. Gundry said he pressure cooks them to remove the lectins but under if he also removes the skin and seeds also or just throws the whole tomato in the cooker...

[@miroslavivanov6682]

when i was kid my parents make dish call giuvech with bell pepper, tomatoes, eggplant and always with a lot of okra. but it was only in the summer for the season. they live long life 90+. how okra interacts with lectins?

[@sigma_six]

Brilliant this is a keeper... just learned about Okra! that's news to me, thanks Dr Gundry

[@AmazingPhilippines1]

I will have to try the okra chips. Thanks Dr. Gundry.

[@africanissimaggmbh]

[@mpbenva]

A clarification for these video presentations - do you consistently mention if a recommended food source is more be beneficial raw vs cooked?

[@dennisevans4739]

Ground mustard seed has a restorative effect on sulphur...

[@sherrypluard4226]

I have anemia and have been reading that the tannins in vegetables cause problems with the absorption of iron, and for those reasons I should have more meat/meat products. What is your perspective?

[@fredericdudley6184]

You should expand the explanation for “chopping broccoli”. The glucosinolate- myrocinase - mustard oil bomb relationship is fascinating. (Maybe only if one is a chemist.)

[@fredericdudley6184]

I’m thinking maybe you could juice and discard the supernatant containing the sugars? Would the glucosinolate and/or myrocinase stay or go out with the bath water?

[@Esther216]

i must say, started doing mushroom coffee every morining and was shocked to feel the differance, just in my BRAIN from day one did not expect that much

[@fredericdudley6184]

If chopping is necessary for the cruciferous vegetables, how about using a Vita Mix or immersion blender to release the enzyme?

[@michellesiderio1010]

Your dad also grew up in a different era where farmers did not add growth hormones to meat or antibiotics.

[@nogahorovitch1417]

I would like to know more, if it is possible a link to the reference, regarding the chopping of cruciferous. That if you do not chop the cruciferous before cooking, the myrosinase will not be released.

[@ewolnai]

This glucosinolate-myrosinase defence system is stored via compartmentalisation, that is to say, they are inert and stored adjacent to one another but in separate cells. This means that when the plant experiences tissue damage and these cells break down, they release their contents so the glucosinolate and myrosinase come into contact with each other to activate the defence system, deterring insect predators (Bones & Rossiter, 1996, Andréasson et al., 2001; Sulforaphane glucosinolate. Monograph, 2010)

[@outbackwack368]

Unfortunately, I tested off the charts for cabbage sensitivity, so stopped eating them a year ago.

[@roadwarrior280]

Great info.If your sensitive to oxalates,be aware of which foods are loaded with them

[@fredericdudley6184]

Rhubarb. Barkeeper’s Friend uses the leaves to derive the oxalate.

[@innosanto]

And there is also approach to take, if spinach is boiled oxalates get reduced.

[@roadwarrior280]

@@innosanto yes, but people are not aware of the oxalate content of many foods e.g sweet potatoes, carrots , almonds, cashews etc . From my perspective, for instance sweet potatoes. I eat two slices , 3x a week. I limit the amount , not completely eliminating foods that have other healthful properties

[@ki5ngau]

I wonder if bitter melon make the list.

[@KJ-md2wj]

Broccoli is high in oxalate and not recommended esp. with gout, kidney issues.

[@Shiv1971]

You need oxalates a couple of times a week to remove carcinogens (cancer causing agents). Perhaps taking some organic lime or lemon juice (a cup's worth - ideally with the skin also juiced and consumed). I would do this on an empty stomach and then not eat for 8 hours - after which taking a multivitamin/mineral pill (ideally liposomal) with your next meal will replenish some of the mineral losses. All veggies should be organic. This protocol could be done twice a week.

[@Peekaboo-Kitty]

Good luck finding "Lion's Mane Mushroom" in the stores!

You said melons aren't that good but what about Bitter Melon? It's very bitter.

[@johnmoore5293]

You didn't say okra also has lectins and lectins can help protect cells from.damage. Cooking foods thar contain lectins break down the lectin. A lectin free diet is not typically recommended by dietitians. You seem to be agianst beans ( legumes) but they are part of a healthy diet around the world.

[@johnmoore5293]

There is more science supporting eating foods with lectins than perceived support to avoid foods with lectins. Please do not spread information that science does not support.

[@vickiewells2761]

Can you please be more specific, how much cruciferous vegetables is too much?

Dr. Gundry likes coffee. He drinks his black without cream or sugar. If desperate you can add unsweetened coconut milk. No artificial sweeteners permitted. Get a copy of The Plant Paradox for additional diet tips, foods to avoid, and recipes. Good luck.

[@andreaspeters3773]

👍Lastly I've heard in a vid, can't remember if it's Dr G., that black coffee has polyphenols. But it's only usable for the body without milk ! !
