WHY is it so Difficult to Eat Healthily? | FAT: A Documentary 2 | ENDEVR Documentary

[@ENDEVRDocs]

FAT: A Documentary 2 is the sequel to the international sensation that delves deeper into the lies and myths surrounding the age old question: "What should I be eating?" "Common knowledge" regarding healthy eating has grown more and more confusing seemingly by the day. Vinnie Tortorich and a host of health experts talk about the conflicts between plant eaters and meat eaters and how hidden machinations in the food industry are the reasons why we believe what we do about food and optimal health.

@@m33265I’m sorry, but that’s BS. Carbs and especially sugar make you more hungry. If you eat a fatty steak, you get full, you probably can’t even finish it, if you eat carbs and sugar you can go right on eating all night with no end in sight, feeling cruddier and cruddier, then even sick the next day.

[@m33265]

@@LoriDRBlake You are righ, I am wrong. Of course sugars rise your hunger. Again ang again, rise your insulin, you became insulin resistant, gives you tons of energy and no nutrient value at all or very small amount, malnutrition is next part of obesity problem. Who wants to loose weight must eat themselve again by nutrient dense food with almost none or none carbs at all. Carnivore diet is best version of keto diet, iam in for 3 months. Carbs (all, pastas, bakery, starch, fructose... ending in blood as higher sugar) will make you fat, fat (yes, animal fat, same as your own) will make you loose weiht. Because in fact loosing weight is only allowing your body to burn your own storage fat whenever you body goes out of energy in blood, high insuling or high blood glucose stops burning fat as energy source (" Randle Cycle", insulin for example blocks enzyme allowing triglycerides release from fat cells back to blood to give body energy). Big drop of energy after cleaning excess glucose from your blood stream by insulin causes big hunger again and again. Fat loss = take control above insulin back by eating right food, fat. Teach your body again burn fat. From diet or your own storage. Good way to start is eat a lot of quality butter, from real milk. Lot of saturated fat and very low or no lactose (milk sugar). So avoiding carbs of any kind leads to weight loss, carbs are cause of obesity, high clucose in blood is damaging your vascular system etc. etc. Stop carbs, eat more fat instead, but do it slowly, fat adaptation takes weeks, your sugar loving gut bacteria will not be happy to die. Cholesterol lies, you need fiber (lie, next polysacharide) etc. etc. Fat will give you more stable energy, stable insulin, lean people have insulin under control, some people naturally produce not enough insulin to even became fat, can eat what they want all day long and have problem to became fat, the cant. Being lean on other side doesnt guarantee beeing metabolically healthy, especially fructose (glucose-fructose syrup) makes fatty liver. Good way to start loosing weight is find video "butter makes you pants fall off" on youtube.

I do agree with you, but we still have a biology to respect, and we do have a species appropriate diet like any other animal. Just look at our physiology: low pH stomach acid, we get fat when eating carbs/sugar, we can't grind our teeth from side to side, we have a small weak digestive system, we have a large brain, we have no cecum or rumen : those are all carnivore traits.

[@AstonAcademia]

@@D4rkBl4de While it's understandable to look for patterns in our biology, it's important to consider the broader picture. While some human traits might superficially resemble those of carnivores, we are actually omnivores with a digestive system adapted to a wide range of foods. Claims like humans having a "weak digestive system" or being primarily suited to a meat-based diet are oversimplifications. Our physiology is far more complex. Weight gain is influenced by overall calorie intake, not solely by carbohydrate consumption. It's essential to approach nutrition with a holistic perspective, considering various factors beyond isolated traits. A balanced diet that includes a variety of plant and animal foods often supports optimal health.

I agree with you once a person becomes metabolically. Until then, though, going keto or even low-carb reduces insulin levels which allows your body to burn your body fat for energy, thus avoiding hunger while losing weight. Helped me to lose 80 lbs, so admit I’m biased in favor of avoiding: foods with added sugar, grains, and/or seed oils. Even though I’m no longer insulin-resistant, carbs like grains, or even too much fruit, spikes my blood glucose too much.

After eliminating all junk food and ultra-processed items from my diet for nearly three years, I found myself grappling with prediabetes despite my significant weight loss. The situation was baffling until further research directed me to a plant-based diet-a concept I initially found off-putting. As someone who was raised on a meat-centric diet, the transition to veganism felt inconceivable. However, embracing this change has been transformative. I am no longer prediabetic, and my doctor is consistently amazed by the condition of my 46-year-old body, which rivals that of men half my age. My annual lab results are exceptional, with metrics such as an LDL level of 33 and a resting heart rate of 47. I experience remarkable energy levels and the only supplement I take is Vitamin B12. Contrary to claims of constant hunger, I struggle to eat more than two meals a day-something I could never have imagined during my previous meat-heavy diet.

So . . . I'm mostly organic plant-based since 2017 because it has made me very healthy. I'm 70 y.o. female on zero medications. Plants have the phytonutrients and fibers that our bodies need; animals have none of those. But also - look at the way corporate animal husbandry raises animals in the USA - which is over 80% of our food supply. There is an overuse of medications in all animals that is NOT eliminated in the plastic-wrapped meat and dairy products sold in most markets. An organic plant-based diet avoids the medication remnants found in commercial meats and dairy products. Avoiding those products is what has made my migraines diminish to zero in the last 2 years.

It’s not hard to eat healthily. Just make the right decisions.

[@LoriDRBlake]

If it’s so easy, why can’t people naturally do it? Read Taubes books. It’s not so easy once you have a problem with metabolism, bcz the foods that were created to be low fat turned out to be horribly addictive, as well. Addictive. Sugar, itself, is unnatural to the body and addictive. Sugar turns out to be the culprit of most of the health related issues that fat was accused of. Obviously this movie didn’t answer that question. There’s another movie by ENDVR that does discuss sugar. Don’t make pretend that a healthy lifestyle is that easy when there’s more behind the scenes than just diet choices. If it were that easy people wouldn’t have any issues with compliance. And I’ll just go one step further, probably shooting myself in the foot that I’m putting in my mouth, but it’s very PC to call “them” “big people”, you might as well be referring to “adults”, but you mean FAT people. You might as well just say obese or overweight people. There are plenty of reasons for a high BMI, if that measurement even means anything, considering the nature of our standard, refined diet these days. Some people can get away with it, many cannot. And the longer the generational pass down of unhealthy genes due to diet, the worse it’s going to get.

They hardly eat meat, most of them are vegetarians, they consume a lot of carbs, bit indeed not a lot of sugar. So I assume they are able to keep their blood sugar levels steady. Looking at the variety of diets people consume all over the world that are healthy and live long, it kind of boils down to me to just a handful important points. Eat food that is in season and locally available. Cook from scratch with fresh ingredients. Eat as divers as possible.

Most importantly is to Do your own research in whatever you do, learn it and understand it, read books to get your mindset in the right direction. “As you think, so shall you become" - Bruce Lee and every other philosopher this world has seen. Another quote which is my fav is "For things to change, you have to change" - Jim Rohn Understand these two quotes and you have already won the first battle with your mind.

True that fruits will affect sugar levels but only if you go in crazy quantities. Eating in moderation will not have an affect to your insulin since the fiber will help the sugars to dissolve very slowly in your body. Balanced and not processed food according to your DNA is the best approach

[@lewis-mindscrambler987]

Nicely done. Good sequel. 👍

[@skeptik-ci5xo]

Many people are unhealthy and obese because hyper-palatable processed foods are abundant, available and addictive. And they are typically eaten, not for sustenance, but for pleasure or self-medication. People use food as a way to alter their moods and regulate their emotions in the same way that they would use drugs or alcohol. It has been established that our genes and microbiomes play a role in our propensity to become obese as well. So it's not just what we eat, it's why and how much, and how well our bodies and microbiota metabolize our food. It's not as simple as eating a ketogenic diet. We need fruits and vegetables for fiber, vitamins and minerals that are anti-oxidative and neuroprotective. Extreme diets are not healthy or sustainable. But balance and moderation are not sexy fodder for the media. Let's use some common sense, now, shall we?

The wrong way to do plant-based is replace everything with an alternative, not change your habits, do it only for the animals, not your health, replace all the vital nutrients from animals with... gluten... when you go "Vegan" you need to do it healthy and fresh. Bottom line, stop eating ultraprocessed, plastic packaged food filled with preservatives, numbers, weird words you cannot pronounce, Vegan or not. Listen to your body, know where you are in your health. Get rid of all ideologies and make sure what you do is from your own opinion and beliefs, not from an influence, which could be marketing from a corporation. HUMANS should eat WHOLE food. Not something with 10 ingredients to make 1 thing.

Look up C15, it's an essential fatty acid basically impossible to get from plants. Without it, every cell in the body breaks down faster than normal, but especially the red blood cells. Now the food with the most of this fatty acids is hard, aged cheese made with milk from grass-fed ruminants. So it would be possible to do things ethically, be healthy even without meat in your diet if you throw in a multivitamin, but that would require a nuanced approach, and people gravitate more towards easy answers.

You just have to look at what we evolved to eat. We are apex carnivores, top of the food chains. We are eating a ton of different foods that we're not adapted to eat since birth, sometimes since baby formula and we destroy our metabolism/organs/systems. We have no means to process plant toxins like omnivores and herbivores do. We have no cecum to achieve this. It's really simple: look at our digestive organs, it's similar to a carnivore's, and our acid pH is extremely low, even lower than a lion's. I went high fat carnivore and it fixed so many lifelong ills for me. Just takes a bit for your body to get adjusted to the new fat burning metabolism. But if you can get through the transition, it's all worth it. They tell us to eat a "balanced" diet but it's all a fraud, no solid science behind it. We just evolved eating fatty red meat and they demonize it. No wonder we're all sick! "aging" is just because we're not eating right. Eat according to your biology, and you'll feel like you're 20 at 60 years old.

Some of the healthiest cultures in the world eat rice, wheat/pasta/bread, legumes, etc... Visit any archeologically significant place in the US and you will see that our indigenous tribes grew a lot of carbs as a mainstay of their diets. Keto/low carb is almost entirely a US diet. We are not so different from other humans that we require a unique way of eating......so then we need to be asking WHAT is it that we consume that's so different than other countries. Look at what is allowed in our food supply that isn't allowed in other countries. Even our processing of meats isn't allowed in other countries (example, chlorinated chicken). We switched to home-milled, organic wheat and all of our labs improved tremendously just from that one, small switch.

Fruits, Greek yoghurt and a lot of vegetables have sugar in them which our body cannot process properly too, just like added sugars.
