    I am an Italian physician living in the Northern part, I finished my first Master in nutrition one year ago and I am currently on my way to conclude the second. I am vegan since about 10 years and lacro-ovo vegetarian since I was 14.
    Pellagra is still a quite famous name among grannies in my neighborhood. Most of people affected were poor class people needing a big amount of calories because of manual labour, with a highly corn based diet consisting largely in polenta (maybe you could find it interesting that, to be able to gobble that corn mud, "richer" families in the area used to add salted fish to rub on the polenta to make it less awful to repetitively eat it,as a sole calorie intake).
    The really interesting part of this interview that got my attention was the discussion over nice and comforting decent food. One of the things I really noticed moving to Germany for work reasons is the lack of fresh herbs to use as spices. This and the excesssive amount of chemically flavoured, highly processed food, combined with a price of fresh vegetables about 2-3 times more expensive than in Italy,associated with a wide spread of obesity between Germans, led me to really think that in a Bolognese sauce the most interesting part is the wise use of natural aromas and the lipid mixture due to the red wine put in the cooking phase. I am wondering how impacting a really good sauce is in the effects of the main nutrients on appetite and craving.
    I would like to thank you for your effort in this channel. It is always well researched and it already gave me more than one good hint, along with a wider understanding of what the "western diet" that you indirecly or directly criticise might look like.
    Most of the Italians I know who came to the US, came back telling wonders about the society and other aspects, but all of them told me the food was just not right and gained kilos just being on vacation there.
    Sorry for the long comment. Hope you are not reading it eating doritos!

    I found a bulletproof way of eating that I find very satisfying. It's a variation on the Esselstyn diet. Five servings of leafy green vegetables, 3 servings of legumes, 2 servings of nuts, a serving of sweet potato, a serving of seeds, 2 servings of whole grains and 3 servings of fruit. I seldom have cravings and my BMI is is a rock solid 23.6. After a lifetime of weight management difficulties, it seems like magic to me.

    I just finished the Dorito Effect! Absolutely fascinating book. Loved this interview. I went down a rabbit hole in February when I searched "what is healthy food?". 8 months, several books, dozens of hours of documebtaries/videos and subscribing to this channel later, I now eat plant based and I have another book to buy. Keep up the great work!

      Beedubs had to reply when I read "I went down a rabbit hole" because that is exactly what I feel I am doing now, since June and escalated in July while trying to understand what I should be eating. I have been deterred by the Keto/carnivores who seem so self-assured and confident that what they are doing is correct. I know persons (including one of my doctors) who have had great results weight wise on these diet....but the saturated fat made me wary and sure enough I found studies about the longer term effects such as elevated cholesterols and have not been able to find any long term studies related to mortality on these diets. Then found Plant CHompers videos on how old were influencers when they died. In May I made one change in my diet....I cut out almost all "added sugars" and that was transformative for me. For the first time I was not thinking about food all day and this led me to try to understand why...and so I am here, still in the rabbit hole but much more knowledgeable about what I should be eating. Best wishes on this journey.

    Excellent video! When he mentioned how whole foods are getting blander and processed foods are getting more flavorful, that made me think of tomatoes. I've heard so many times from people that eating a home grown tomato right off the vine will be the best tomato you've ever had. You'd never be able to eat store bought tomatoes ever again. I've never grown my own tomatoes but hope to some day.
    I also understand when he talked about liking something and wanting something. I specifically remember one time my friend took me to Dairy Queen and we grabbed some burgers and fries and ice cream. It was really way too much food but I kept eating even after eating stopped being fun and became work. It's your typical struggle of wanting to clear your plate even though you're really full and don't actually want to. But you feel the need to do it. Apparently it shown on my face or something because she asked me how I was and I said I'm so full eating isn't fun anymore. She told me it's ok to stop so I did. It was good thing too because I probably would have thrown up otherwise.
    Before I started changing the way I ate, I had a BMI over 40. Eating a low fat WFPB vegan diet has gotten me down to a BMI of 27. I'm at the last stretch of 15 pounds to be in the normal weight range. :) This is where it'll take real work and dedication to lose weight. It was actually pretty easy up until this point.

      Wow wow WOW!!! BMI 40 ==> 27 is just amazing. 👏💪💥😎 Congratulations. As Mark said in the interview, not many people can achieve that. I hope you can lose the last 15 and keep it off. I know people who've done it like my son-in-law, but it seems to be a very small percent of people who try. WFPB for the win.

      @@Viva-Longevity Thanks! I first started going plant-based in 2019 for health reasons. The PLAN was to eat 100% plants on my own time then have an unhealthy meat-based meal when out with friends to avoid the whole social problem. But that's not how it worked out. I would do my 100% plants just fine but after I ate that bad meal, I would spiral into bad eating for like a month. It would take an extreme effort of will to stop doing it. By then, I had regained most of the weight I had lost. But apparently I ate well enough that I was steadily losing weight so it was very motivating for me.
      Then COVID hit and everyone was sent home. Since I had already been going plant-based for about a year, going 100% wasn't hard. Not being invited out to eat all the time made it so easy. And watching some special presentations about addiction made me realize I basically have a food addiction. Eating that bad food was a trigger for me. Once I realized that, a lot of my behavior made sense. Then I did research on zoonotic disease and simply decided I wasn't going to fund those industries anymore.
      However, that left room for when I go visit family out of state to eat animal products during the holidays since THEY are going to buy the food whether I'm there or not. So last year I ate turkey and all that for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
      Then I learned about how diseased the animals are and what the FDA and USDA says is legally allowed to be fed and done to the animals. Since I have no interest in eating diseased cannibalistic animals, I did not partake in the turkey feast this year. My sister-in-law was nice and made some roasted butternut squash with vegetables so I would have one thing I could eat. lol
      Consistency is the key to losing weight and the only real way to have consistency is to have that motivating factor. As long as I don't get sucked into vegan junk food too heavily, I plan on keeping this weight off and getting even healthier. :)

    I've gone almost entirely vegan since I started watching your videos. That 'almost entirely' might sound like a mealy (or meaty) mouthed euphemism, but the truth is, having experienced just how good this makes me feel, I don't really want to eat anything but good quality whole plant foods now. Yesterday I was in a café at closing time and they offered me and my nephews free pastries. I took a cinnamon roll to be polite and out of vague curiosity about how it would land with me. I had it with coffee this morning and it felt more a chore than a treat, basically pointless as I was eating it and faintly depleting in the aftermath.

Also Carrots are great, you can chew allot on them. And apples from the frige, they keep you full.

The brain knew it had gotten cheated out of those sweet calories! This was a wakeup call for me to quit using stevia, which I had been using in ever-increasing amounts due to my parallel increase in sweet cravings!!

I've never been overweight but I've dealt with binge eating as a result of food scarcity, and Mark's mention of "true enjoyment" struck a chord with me because to me a plate of fresh vegetables and tomato sauce mixed with pasta is way more enjoyable than substituting a meal with nuts, even though nuts are still "real" food compared to chips (I personally don't care for chips).
    I've also binged on nuts before in an effort to find satisfaction in eating. Or the idea of wanting vs. liking food - I barely enjoyed food when I was binging, especially when I started binging on what I don't find very satisfying, like oatmeal, rather than instantly palatable foods like sugary pastries, but it felt like a desperate desire just to eat.

    Wow! Great video. One aspect of your videos that I really value and appreciate is that you most often offer the perspective of the (nutrition) road less traveled. I vote that you take the last 8 minutes of this episode and make a few follow on videos.

I oftetn watch videos more than once as they are so full and rich with information. Thank you so much for being the voice of reason.

    Mouth feel + salt and oil really pull me in and that's exactly what's in processed foods. Stopped eating them and now if I try to eat a plant based sausage or pizza the taste is really overpowering and I can see how it pulls me in. "Resistance is futile" is probably every junk food manufacturers mantra/goal. Does make eating real food harder but only in the beginning. Loose the taste and you're finally free. Freedom from xyz more important than ever. Can't quite believe how far I've come.... vegan, wfpb, non alcohol/smoking/drugs ... and discovered the gym at 57 woohoo what a combo.. xxx

    Chris - very good episode. Please may I suggest you interview David Raubenheimer and Stephen Simpsin, authors of book - Eat Like The Animals. These two entomologist scientists have taken the nutrition world by storm, showing we eat until our need for protein is satisfied - and as very many highly processed foods have low protein content, we over eat them to our detriment... My lesson - as a whole food plant based eater - make sure theirs a useful moderate or high protein food on the plate to satiate and satisfy...

    WOW! WOW! WOW! BRILLIANT! Schatzker is amazing. Fascinating , new, and unexpected insights. Part of this conversation about how our brains work goes so far beyond food. These insights can inform why we do stupid stuff and even goes to the fallacy of mass incarceration. Is that a leap? Think about it. Not at all.

  • @AndrewPawley11
    @AndrewPawley11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    That's a fabulous interview. Having lived in Italy for 3 years I would venture to suggest Mark's presentation of Italian life is somewhat romanticized. Italians do eat a lot of foods that don't quite live up to the standards he describes. However, the thrust of his arguments still carries great force.

    Reminds me a lot of the studies into "mindful eating" like Thich Nhat Hanh's book "Savor". Plant-based eating can seem like a chore or taking your "medicine". Well thought out and not often spoken of topics. I saw that one of your videos hit the PBN channel - I hope that happens much more often.

  • @BigAussieDonkey
    @BigAussieDonkey 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    A related observation... when I'm deliberately overfeeding (to build muscle), my sense of taste changes. Foods that I eat when I am trying to lose weight don't taste as good when I am trying to gain weight. In fact, the only foods that still taste good when I am trying to gain weight are the highly processed foods. It is hard to bulk up on whole foods.

    Amazing stuff, I totally agree. After you can refuse produced food (it has to do something with reason, your brains - hey, we can not always work instinctively) you can learn to distinguish the taste and listen your body, since it tells you what are you missing or there is to many.
    The things about Goetje and organic beings, I totally agree. As well as with Italian mentality. They talk a lot about what they're doing but the do it with passion. Perhaps the result is not a German precision, but is beautiful, tasty, satisfying.
    At the end of the day it is all about the harmony, as the artist would say about their product.
    Keep up the good work.

  • @bohditony

    In US foods are supplemented with high fructose corn syrup/ whey/ bone broth/ cheese/milk - not only vitamins. That contorts our taste buds from whole fresh plant food. Then it’s advertised/ advertised/ advertised as “mychoice” to eat those. How about in Italy is this done

    @plantchompers I had an experience with salt you may be interested in. I started upping my iodine, and my salt cravings ended. 3 servings of dulce a day and the salt shaker no longer is appealing. Before this, the salt shaker was irresistible. It feels like the light at the end of the salt tunnel!
    Has anyone else felt this??

    • @Viva-Longevity

    • @apriljohnson6191
      @apriljohnson6191 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@Viva-Longevity​​⁠I did not, unfortunately. I was trying to solve my salt addiction and tried upping my intake of iodine to rule out the possibility. I could not seem to live on less than extra 3 servings of iodized salt per day. Recalling this video gave me the idea. Now it feels like I turned off a craving switch.
      Now I wish I had done so, to confirm it was an iodine issue. Otherwise this is an anecdotal story. Know of anyone who might be able to do a study on it?

I have seen several TH-cam videos of ex vegans who decided they needed to eat beef liver because of the high niacin content…it just makes me wonder if they were craving niacin for some other reason nothing to do with eating plant based 🤔 anyways this interview really makes you think which is so important so thank you Chris!!!

    10:10 Adverse effects of B6 supplementation have never been observed with daily intakes up to 1400% DV. And there are several studies suggesting potential health benefits of supplementing B6 with doses well above 100% DV. In the EU, a product must have at least 100% RDA (2 mg) of B6 for you to be able to claim that it "stimulates mental capacities", for example.
