Best and Worst Beverages - Grocery Haul (energy drinks and more)

[@kay6025]

wow, every single time i have any health/diet related question, i just type it into youtube and pray one of your vids pop up... and they always do!! thank you x 1000!!

[@FrancescaReviews]

Can we all take a second to appreciate how well he pronounces all those big words?

[@brentgarcia7815]

He's just making up the words. 😂 jp

[@SebMagicXVI]

Mannnn, the amount of knowledge you have about nutrition and science is just crazy. If everybody had only 5% of your knowledge when it comes to decide what to eat and drink, a lot less people would be sick. Thanks for all you good videos and devotion!

[@Stormy_Dawn]

"You're going to bloat city" Haha! This is such a great video.

[@eileennicely3940]

LOVE that you called out all the people who don't purchase what they tell you is good for us on keto. Too many people just trying to put out content to put out content. Especially the ones who you can tell have never seen an item before they are going to tell you if it's "approved" for keto or not. Or who don't know what the terms they are using mean. Or ask if the viewers have tried it because they haven't, but don't buy to try what they are recommending. I really appreciate your knowledge, integrity and honest.

[@goffenhiemer]

"Real Sugar... that's also REAL diabetes" made me LOL

LMAO YES!! I died on that one.

[@chipkelly1952]

[@chipkelly1952]

Phantom Warrior oh well some of you are over the top with this shit it’s still better then every other drink but water and I been drinking them and still losing weight

[@billiecomeaux]

I recently made the switch from regular diet soda (Diet Dr. Pepper), to stevia sweetened sodas (Zevia, Blue Sky), as well as monkfruit in my coffee. I have to say I really enjoy them!

[@yogimaster1]

My favorite beverage is lemon water, so I buy lots of lemons. I use the peels after squeezing them as a natural rub on deodorant and it works better than anything I've ever used. I learned recently that erythritol gives me bad reactions so stevia is my only sweetener since I'm trying to stay in ketosis. Keto is fantastic!

[@katie_moore]

Thomas - could you do a video on best ways to stay keto during the holidays? it's been a huge struggle for us two years in a row!! thanks for everything you do...we LOVE your channel :)

[@amandayahl3510]

Thank you for all your helpful videos! From one nerd to another they way you say all those big words without getting tongue tied really turns me on! 😂😍 Seriously though, I love how you break everything down with the effects it has on your body.

[@rebeccalucas6063]

I love the Bragg's vinegar drinks. Thank you for this breakdown.

[@axtasticbee5677]

Can't find them anywhere!

[@guardshack9606]

Do they taste like feet like the plain apple cider vinegar? Or are they actually sweet?

[@ShredZ23]

They are sweet.You can find them in publix if you have one in your area.The Concord grape acai flavor is the sweetest one I've tried but the apple cinnamon one is good too.

[@elviswjr]

I am so glad you mentioned pH water! It’s such a common myth that you can change the pH of your body and that there’s health benefits to doing so. I’m glad to see you got the facts straight.

[@tjegan1417]

My previous question about erythritol was answered near the end of the video when it was stated that erythritol mixed with carbonation can cause bloating

[@markeboy1658]

pretty sure water works just fine. gave up soda and other drinks for good...except coffee...must have coffee..lol

[@RickMartinYouTube]

Soda drinker for decade (diet stuff)....glad I quit it a year or two ago. No desire. Now if I can stay away from light beer....

[@BaQu82]

@@RickMartinKZbin ofc you can.You just have to want to stop. If you can't stop it just means you want it too much. Find a product you want more that replaces it. For me it was fizzy water with lemon. Sounds boring but it doesn't have to be.

[@RickMartinYouTube]

@@BaQu82 good advice, thanks

[@MrFredstt]

I drink raw milk and water with some coffee in the morning

[@charliechan6892]

I also gave up coffee, try sparkling water and the flavors, sometimes I'll do vitamin water zero, cause drinking water all the time gets boring lol

[@Apathymiller]

I'd like to see the kool-aid like beverages. Like crystal lite , jolly ranger etc etc

[@oktomcat]

I do not know why stores do not want you to video record. You are buying things and you are promoting their store. Thank you for doing this. Drinks is a tough one because I want flavor but got to watch out for what flavors they put in the drink. Again, I love that you point out that just because something is healthy, it doesn't mean that it is good for you to have a lot of it, such as coconut and juice. A lot of people think that drinking a lot of fruit is good for you. Again, you taught me a lot and helped me be able to make better choices when it comes to buying drinks. I didn't know that organic hot drinks were important.

[@ajithsidhu7183]

Can you please do one on androgen recpotors and how to make it more sensitive

[@Johnroz38]

Great information. I'm thinking you might need to break this down a bit more and do one just on coffee, tea and energy drinks

[@wakjob961]

My favorite sparkling beverage...White Claw!

[@theironforce3000]

Great video. Finally something outside of Whole Foods and outside your kitchen studio. I know very well all those products mentioned. I also liked this vid as it felt more natural, amateur style, not scripted w. special editing, etc. More relateable :D

[@jeremides]

The density of the information is worth having notifications on for new videos.

[@SherryEllesson]

Thomas, fwiw Aldi carries a brand of lightly flavored sparkling water a la LaCroix but their own generic brand that's less than $3 for a 12-pack of cans. Glad you covered the point about buying both coffee and tea organic. I get my organic regular coffee at Aldi and order organic decaf from VitaCost.

[@pteronarcyscalifornica694]

With regard to the first can of Yerba Mate, 8g of erythritol is calorically equivalent to 0.4g of sugar (0.2kcal/g vs 4kcal/g).

[@maui_808]

Great video! I was hoping you would’ve gotten to Bai, as I love drinking that to curb my sugar cravings or as a meal replacement. What is your take on Bai? I mainly drink the antioxidant infusion ones. Mahalo!

[@Randemoller]

Tatiana Martinez the Bai Antioxidant infusion is the most keto friendly one

[@axtasticbee5677]

Omg i love the 🍉

[@akhilsharma83]

just have to stop in the middle and give this guy credit for giving so much information for free!!!

[@MrNYCman530]

Erythritol is considered a lot safer than other added sweeteners. And absorbs more slowly. I won't have it in a drink, but it's good in the Enlightened Ice Cream.

[@laniyoung3020]

Thank you so much! Your videos have helped me so much especially when I’m shopping!

[@simplytine2939]

Matcha is staple in our house. I have both ceremonial and culinary only first premium and 2nd harvest. I drink my 2nd harvest at work 😆 save the best for last Which is ceremonial at home

[@tjegan1417]

For inorganic tea one could give the tea bag a quick rinse in hot water, and then steep it a little longer in hot water for the desired strength. I think this would help in ridding some the the pesticide residue that may be on the leaves.

[@scottm806]

FYI Thomas I learned Ceremonial grade Matcha is made from 90% shaded for at least 20 days tencha, picked by hand, stone ground and when brewed made with 90 degree water. Phenomenal video on Mei Leaf called Finding Best Matcha | Japan Trip. Thomas, you said you really like tea and I think you will really find this one interesting.

Thanks for the video. Would love a video on the best kinds of bottled water to drink. I'm a long-haul truck driver so I rely on bottled water

[@Dtyler171]

FYI the best thing taurine does is cut back lactic acid buildup, which is great for recovery from heavy workouts. This is one of the huge reasons that athletic people can see more benefits from energy drinks over a more sedentary person.

[@Jamzz0rMeakz]

Sparkling ice drink: Carbonated water, citric acid, natural flavor, grapefruit juice concentrate, potassium benzoate, sucralose, ester gum, calcium disodium EDTA, color. 0 everything, 10mg sodium. Is this ok for keto???

[@jenni1111100]

It's pointless trying to wash pesticides off plants as it's also inside them. Organic is better but we really dont know the history of the farm where organic foods are grown. After 3 years of no pesticides, land is considered organic. (Nevermind the fact that the same dirt had pesticides dumped on it for 50 years prior to that!)

[@Xstr3ngthz]

What are people gunna eat then? Ice cubes?

[@TheBeneFitters]

Did a review on a healthy energy drink called TAKA™. One of the flavors is hibiscus and when you mix it with hot water instead of cold, it's just like a hibiscus tea. Delicious.
