The Shocking Truth About Your Daily Diet

[@johnaweiss]

Phenomenal information, fantastically presented, as always. Thanks for SHOCKING us again! There's only one thing wrong with this video: too few likes.

I wondered (as a non-baker) why the whole grain flour from the bulk bin at my local food co-op was so different texture wise to the 100% whole wheat flour at the national chain nearby. I was thinking the co-op flour was just coarsely milled, but thanks to you I need to do more research on their supplier and find out what's going on! My wholewheat flour tortillas will benefit from the knowledge I've learned, thank you!

[@m0L3ify]

I'm Celiac but we get our bread from a local bakery who just uses a flour mix from "whole grain rice" etc and water. Just flour and water. I don't know if they actually grind the flour themselves, so I'm not sure what definition of "whole grains" they're using, but they ferment their own starter for each batch and it's absolutely delicious! It's so hard to find commercial GF bread that doesn't contain eggs so I hope this bakery stays in business forever! Otherwise, it's bye bye bread for us, although I didn't know you could buy your own grinder and make your own that way. I may have to look into that!

[@Viva-Longevity]

Fascinating! Really sorry to hear about the Celiac. Do you have to avoid oats too?

[@m0L3ify]

@@Viva-Longevity No, but it has to be certified gluten free because they grow and store oats with wheat, so it has to be oats that are grown and stored separately. Annoying, but it works. Some celiacs say they have issues with oats anyway, but I've found Bob's Red Mill GF does the trick for me. I eat them all the time!

[@shuttersteph]

My husband is Celia and can’t do oats, even gluten-free ones. It’s a big bummer.

Hi Plant Choppers! Really enjoy your videos - in fact forget Netflix, I have been binging on your videos today. I wonder if you have a grain mill you would recommend, I am interested in milling my own grain to make my own bread.

[@Viva-Longevity]

You know, we have a Magic Mill stone grinder that we've put to hard use since 1976, if you can believe it. We love it but they are no longer available. My wife knows of some interesting mills tho and she said she'd answer after she has a chance to track some of them down.

[@KCorange]

Thank you for these videos! Please share the mill and bread maker your family uses. Thanks!

[@Viva-Longevity]

Our wheat grinder is actually called a Magic Mill and we've had it for 50 years, but they are out of business. It uses stones. The one I used in an episode (can't remember if it was this one or the one on wheat) is a spare because we thought the Magic Mill was dying (we fixed it). Our bread maker must be 15 years olde...and I suspect modern ones are way better.

[@KCorange]

Thank you for the reply. 😀 Sounds like you have a great mill and bread maker.

[@Natalie-nw4po]

Fantastic video! When you said for something to be considered a whole grain it only needs to be 51% whole grain does that refer to the product or the flour itself? For instance can a "100% whole wheat" pasta with the only ingredient "whole wheat semolina flour" still be 49% white flour?

[@Viva-Longevity]

Unfortunately, that's my understanding, that 100% whole wheat can be 49% white flour and no germ. 😢 I would love for someone to correct me.

[@HealingLifeKwikly]

Problem with CAC scores is the vast majority of people in wealthy nations have had steadily worsening heart disease since childhood but most still have CAC scores of zero until their mid-fifties (men) or mid-sixties (women). Bizarrely low-carb and keto advocates in their 30s, 40s, and 50s keep bragging about CAC scores of zero as if that proves something about their diet (it doesn't).

Tested all these breads with a CGM and bread period is high glycemic and great recipe for type 2 diabetes.

[@HealingLifeKwikly]

Blood glucose levels are dependent upon how much fat you have eaten in the past/recently AND how slim you are AND how much fat and protein you eat with the bread (AND whether the fat or protein come from plant of animal sources), so if you are eating a very high fat diet (as you are), the blood glucose response could be triple for you after eating a slice of bread as it would be for me on a VLF WFPB diet. You have to look at the big picture to understand nutrition.

[@GregariousAntithesis]

@@HealingLifeKwikly how would you know how your glycemic response is Carl you never test your blood glucose and dont even own a glucose meter.

[@GregariousAntithesis]

@@HealingLifeKwikly There is one very glaring problem with your theory about nutrition. Why did my HDL go up, my Triglycerides go down on a high saturated fat low carb diet? Do you understand what triglycerides are and what they indicate Carl? Hint, its usually an indication of eating excess carbs, usually but not always, it can also indicate something else.

[@HealingLifeKwikly]

@@GregariousAntithesis There are studies that have varied the fat intake and carb intake of people, and you consistently get lower glucose spikes at a higher ratio of carbs to fat--that's actual lower glucose levels from eating MORE carbs, as long as fat intake was lowered. I'v e never had elevated glucose or A1c, so I don't need a glucose meter. The point is that science demonstrates how these things work, so it's impossible to state the exact glucose effect of any food as a fixed amount of rise in glucose because that depends enormously on a lot of other factors. Eat certain types of animal fat and protein with the carbs, and the glucose rise gets bigger, eat some types of plant fats and proteins with the carbs, and the rise in glucose gets smaller. It's like you are trying to predict the effects of running ONE specific play in a football game without knowing what plays were run before, whether the team has a good or poor offensive line, etc. It makes no sense, but THIS is exactly the kind of craziness that reductionist thinking has introduced into our nutrition discussions.

[@HealingLifeKwikly]

@@GregariousAntithesis "There is one very glaring problem with your theory about nutrition. Why did my HDL go up?" Not surprising at all, your diet is raising your LDL levels, and you need more HDL to clear it away. Your body knows that and is responding. However, don't get too excited, experimental studies seem to indicate that HDL levels are not causally related to heart disease rates. Why would your TG go down? Again, not surprising in the slightest. You are not just eating a high fat diet, you are eating a ketogenic diet, forcing your body to switch to fat consumption for energy for more of the day. That gobbles up TG. So no, nothing about your experience poses any challenges to what we know about nutrition (it's not "my" theory). News flash: TG:HDL ratios are only somewhat helpful in predicting relative CVD risk amongst people who already have much higher CVD risk due to elevated LDL levels (and in your case LP(a) ). However, you wipe out CVD risk by getting your biomarkers into the healthy range, and if your LDL-C and LDL-P are in the healthy range for a lifetime, rates of CVD events drop to essentially zero.

[@HealingLifeKwikly]

Despite the sloppiness of the definitions, after controlling for other variables, "whole grain" consumption is still strongly associated with less inflammation, being slimmer, having better heart and brain health, and greater longevity. In the most recent Global Burden of Diseases Study, too little whole grain consumption was one of the top three modifiable factors that could improve longevity.
