I’m so grateful I grew up poor in asia that my parents can’t afford snacks/candy or chocolate. I grew up eating vegetables cooked fresh daily so I grew up having no addiction to sweet stuff. I don’t like candy or chocolate cake or any deserts...unless it’s dark chocolate. I’m actually watching this video while snacking on almonds and blueberries

[@miac2382]

When I grew up I did not eat a lot of candies my mom wouldn't let me and forced me to eat vegetables lol But sometimes I got candy and chocolate and I loved it but it was like a treat. I do love cholcate milk though and I drink that when I workout or cleaning my apartment for hours but I try to not get it all the time but I feel it gives me an energy boast and pick me up personally and rehydrates me

Americans don't have a "diet" lol There is no specific diet you can eat whatever you want.

Then I became like a sweet addicted and still it is hard for me but I feel it is ok to let kids have a treat sometimes. Mostly only on my birthday I got treats and could eat sweets

Avocado smoothie with Spirulina. Blueberries, pomegranate, grapes, carrots. You name it, I love all those. Especially raw carrot juice. I drink it on a daily basis. Salmon fish, yummy twice a week. No processed foods. And I love water. No soda or caffeine. I’m 42 years old and some say I look 30 years old. Also, having a positive mindset and meditation helps a whole lot. Thank you Doc ❤️❤️❤️

[@HoneeyBee3]

But even tea with caffeine?? I've been drinking green tea and oolong tea to keep me on track with my weight loss goals. I dont drink sodas though

[@annwilliams6438]

About smoothie. Yuk! Green puke.

[@emilia13ful]

Maybe wild caught salmon. I don't drink, smoke or eat sugar, just 75% dark chocolate and eat healthy and yet I have too may wrinkles around my eyes because I have insomnia problems from time to time.

[@miac2382]

I don't have the time or money to smoothie everyday and I don't really like fruit it upsets my stomach a lot of times for some reason than vegetables don't really have a taste or good taste to me but I eat them anyways. The only fish I like is tune fish all the other fish I tired I don't like the taste. I mostly drink water and unsweetened tea but I drink milk and chocolate sometime too sometimes off and on. Soda I don't really drink anymore unless I'm having pizza than I will do soda or sweet tea. But growing up my mom did not allow sweets or junk food so I feel when I got on my own I went crazy especially with the sweets lol So I don't think it is good to completely restrict a kid and they see all their friends getting to eat it but they never get to but on the other hand not good to always allow junk food. I know someone else her mother would never let her eat sweets and she went crazy too like me on sweets when she got older lol So I'm not sure that is so good either to never treat yourself or let your kid have sweet treat sometimes

[@miac2382]

But we do need to eat more healthy in America. Growing up I eat healthy though because my mom cooked healthy and with a lot of vegetables. I didn't drink any green drinks or stuff blended together though. We need to eat more vegetables on the side and in our food and cook more healthy and drink water mostly. And exercise

Thank you Dr. Youn. I am a retired RN and now I am Master Esthetician in WA state. I am glad that you did this great video and ebook. My school of esthetics is holistic and educates new esthetician about healthy eating. My favorite books to recommend to all of my clients are The Water Secret by Howard Murad, MD and Eating for Beauty by David Wolfe. Vegetables not only provide antioxidants but provide water to our cells that have the energy to pass through the cellular membrane. My favorite seed for my skin are raw or sprouted pumpkin seeds.

Sugar binds to collagen, which makes the collagen more brittle. Sugar also binds to testosterone receptors especially in Leydig cells thus preventing them from producing testosterone.
