Dr. Lim, i first watched this video in mid December 2023 after which i made a choice to try mostly whole plant based diet. I have been overweight most of my life. i have had food addictions , especially unhealthy kinds. So i really appreciated the fact that you were not advocating for extremes and absolutes - but the acronym "eat food, not too much, mostly plants" has been my "guiding principle ever since". Today i weighed myself - , i have lost 7 kgs after adopting this principle, i don't starve myself, i don't crave sugary or salty foods anymore like i used to, I feel great. Every weekend i purpose to learn new plant based recipees and i am pleasantly surprised that they are quite tasty. I thank God for this video and for helping people use food as medicine. I am sharing the same with my family, friends and as many people as can care to listen. God bless you! Thankyou !

[@dhananjoysaha7420]

Great Dr

[@kentroskelley1389]

This is phenomenal, a young physician talking about the power and major importance of eating real whole plant food as a major path to a quality healthy life. We need to help all physicians learn to include nutrition in patient discussions. One of their first questions should be, what do you eat in a daily basis?

[@CinD956]

I struggled so much with asthma well in to my twenties. After experiencing severe environmental and food allergies. I decided to try the plant-based diet. I dropped weight, felt much better, and have yet to experience another asthma flare-up. It's been over a decade and I have no regrets in switching my diet. I see this as lifestyle and it has prompted me to try different exercises.

WHAT DO YOU NORMALLY EAT?

[@toniferris4648]

Dr. Kim, Your presentation on being a healthy version of ourselves was very informative. I appreciate you taking the time to speak in layman language for everyone to understand. I’m a plant based - vegan for 9 years. I credit my life choices to the reason I’m alive with CLL for 19 years. I encourage everyone to not eat and live how our government and television shows us. Take pride in what you put inside your body and be active.

[@bitfinesse]

I drive trucks as well. And I, too, eat what is most convenient for me. My schedule is insane - starting a new company, working 18-20hr days for 4-6 months at a time with no days off in between. Every six months I take two weeks off. So I eat potatoes and cabbage mostly. When I feel like I need a treat, I have broccoli. It’s a little less convenient so I don’t have it every day. But when I do, it’s very, very nice. Every now and then I find myself with an extra four hours of time before I need to be busy again. I party during these times with a medium black cup of coffee (maybe twice per month). Sometimes I feel like I want a delicious sweet snack - something I rarely have. At these times, I find a couple handfuls of grapes or a few ounces of berries. For the weeks I take off, I really pig out and go nuts with the food. But only while I’m home. So at these times I make food all day and kind of eat with no end in sight. I’ll steam maybe four or five vegetables per day and wolf down bowls of steamed vegetables topped with rice vinegar, garlic powder, ginger and bright red chile powder with the broth/pot liquor that’s created after steaming the vegetables. It’s such an enjoyable all-day buffet. Some may view eating this way as extremely restrictive. But anyone who takes a leap of faith and tries it faithfully for a month or two will discover the tremendous variety and the phenomenon of less-frequently-consumed vegetables (in my case, broccoli) becoming a wild extravaganza due to their restriction out of convenience. This is the case with potatoes, as well. I usually have yukon gold potatoes. But every now and then I’m able to find Japanese sweet potatoes or hawaiian sweet potatoes. I scoop up 20-30lbs and have them after filling my belly with vegetables. They’re the best desert because a pie or cake are never on my menu. So the sweet potatoes become the pie and the cake. What our brains recognize as DELICIOUS is RELATIVE to the most delicious thing we’re eating. I restrict my eating to mostly vegetables so the potatoes and fruits feel like a wild party. These foods wouldn’t be as enjoyable if I were stopping into McDonald’s. As weird as this may be, all I can say is that this works, keeps me very lean and trim even though I only have time to exercise for 5-10 minutes once or twice per day, maybe five days per week. Everything’s just so manageable and enjoyable. As far as refusing what every store and vendor has to offer, I just remind myself often, “I don’t allow the world to splash around in my blood - we’re at war.” Good luck to all who wish for a healthier, happier life. My willpower is on a serious decline these days. If I can do it, trust me, so can you.

Hello. Diagnosing the human gut should b the first diagnosis. Because not everyone can handle plant based diet due to gut dysbiosis. I am 1 of them. 🙏

[@antoncoetzee9996]

Follow dr Will Bulsiewicz, he will guide you

[@hugoapresname]

Same problem after ‚soft‘ antibiotics this year. I built biome for months. Gone just like that… I !slowly! raised ‚lacto’-fermenting bacteria. With a supplement too (big strain-MIX! with vitamins especially B-Vitamins), and my own Sauerkraut as meal starters! In the meantime I ate more pressure cooked rice and potatoes but moderately. About every other day threw in intermediate fasting to detox and regenerate (or degenerate) the gut mucus. Important for fasting is mineral management! (2 Lemons in the morning and alkalising minerals: Ca Mg Zinc, and Iodized ‚Natural’Salt 1/2-1 Tsp in water to get the *fish* going, don’t take different mineral supplements or salt together. NEVER!!! DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME!!!!!!!!!!!) I especially recommend Magnesium-Citrate (cheap) against congestion!!! Better have the stool too thin than fermenting like an aged cheese. There is prebiotic food that doesn’t trigger insulin in your blood. It‘s almost like continuing fasting. E.g. a „Mono-Meal“ like this: Avocado halves with only egg yokes baked, pepper+salt with some fresh strong flavoured Olive Oil (polyphenol rich). Since such a meal is only high (healthy/Omega3) fat it doesn’t trigger insulin, feeds the gut, the brain, all organs, nerve cells. In German there is Dr. Ulrich Selz. In English I recommend Dr. Steven Gundry‘s Books chronological order! William Davis Wheatbelly Sally Norton Superfoods Robert Lustig Metabolical Stool analysis can‘t hurt if available. Better than throwing away money for food and supplements that don’t help you at all, or even contribute to disbiosis. Sorry for throwing everything at you so short and compressed. I dearly hope something is of use 👍 🙏❤️🙏

[@PlantBasedPrimary]

B-12 is made by a bacteria in the soil. Due to soil degradation, animals are also now B-12 deficient. The animal agriculture industry now adds a B-12 supplement to feed. So, either way, you’re taking a B-12 supplement.

every living thing on earth relies upon the death of another living thing just to survive. What sort of sick bunny creates a world that is based upon suffering ?

So if a doctor doesn't address the root cause, then the patient should. C'mon, it's 2023 start educating yourself online!!

[@BUENDIAYBUENASNOCHES]

We cant rely on doctors anymore. I always tell everyone most of them dont really care about you they just want to do their assigned jobs and get paid, but the best person thst can do the best for your own helth is yourself, eat healthy, excercise and keep a good mimd set.

The best food for you is the one you are attracted to as is without any adulteration. No cooking no salting, no spices.

Had to turn it off at 10:17 when he put down olive oil. I believe oil oil, avocado and eggs are the best foods to consume.

[@Cristina-co5om]

I feel like im having a heart attack when i consume olive oil.

[@williamhenry3337]

@@Cristina-co5om Sorry to hear that. I had 6 straight tablespoons of olive oil today plus the olive oil in my home made olive oil & Braggs vinegar dressing on my salad. Keep eating healthy in whatever form works for you and have a great day.

[@laneeacannon1450]

Yes, like the pesticides they spray on everything, oats in particular if not organic. It does not have gluten in it, however. Gluten is wheat, not oats.

[@laneeacannon1450]

Yes, like pesticides they spray on everything. Oats in particular has been in the news for the dangerous pesticide, if not organic. It doesn't have gluten, however. Gluten is wheat, not oats.

olive oil : 390 calories approximatively per pound. 4000! absolutely not. Otherwise, I'm on a whole plant diet and I agree with everything else.

[@mariaespiritu9512]

1 teaspoon of olive oil has 40 calories, 1 teaspoon of olive oil weighs 0.167 oz, so 1 pound of olive oil (16 ounces) has (16/0.167 = 95.8) 95.8 teaspoons, and since 1 teaspoon of olive oil has 40 calories, it means that 1 pound of olive oil has (95.8 teaspoons x 40 calories per teaspoon = 3,832 calories) 3,832 calories in 1 pound of olive oil. So not exactly 4,000 calories per pound, but pretty damn close.

[@mariaespiritu9512]

You can Google amount of calories in 1 pound of olive oil, it comes up as 3,998, but I’m a math nerd and numbers don’t lie. And just check your olive oil bottle and look at the calories per tablespoon (which is 3 teaspoons), you’ll see it’s about 120 calories (or 40 calories per 1 teaspoon), which is the value I used for my calculations.

[@mariaespiritu9512]

The only way olive oil would be around 390 calories per pound, is if 1 tablespoon only had 12 calories (or 1 teaspoon 4 calories) and that’s not the case.
