Either you pay the farmer or you pay the doctor.
I like the idea of the farmers market in front of the hospital
Good idea. Last time I went to a market no nlueberries,strawberries or black berries. Boy was I disapointed.i cant have a lot of fruit and breads cause of the Atkins keto diet. So I dinnt think it was worth going without blueberries there!
Me, too!! 😃😃😃😃😃😃

JUST SAYING x h vothe vis byjbjnn tthe bobcats bb BC but by ubbb
I'm the meth head.
The farm lady was right: organic fruits and vegetables have better taste, texture and nutrition than the stuff in the supermarket.
The farmers look so healthy, probably because they eat real food.
Luis Martinez Bro calm down.
Pay the farmer or pay the doctor..... Your choice. You WILL pay.
more doctors need to be like Dr. Maring, he had a good idea
The current heavy subsidizing of corn production in the US should really be shifted towards supporting the production of fruit & veg. The corn subsidies distort market competition in such a negative way, considering that a major percentage of the corn is used for the production of unhealthy ingredients like corn syrup.
It strikes me as almost immoral that the US government is publicly funding the junk food industry like that, especially with the current obesity crisis worsening every year.

Most fruits contain more fructose than high fructose corn syrup.
Hypercarnivore yes but at least they’re filled with essential vitamins and minerals and they also keep you fuller for longer. It’s a no brainer as to which is healthier.
Yep! Also full of fiber, which most people do not get nearly enough of.
@@HammerheadGuitar Fruit also has fiber, I don't eat a lot of fruit, berries are very healthy - HFCS is one of the worst products you can ingest - if you argue that it is ok then you are clueless. Trump supporter right?
Whenever the government gets involved in giving subsidies it always ends in disaster -- this time the entire nation is paying with its health.
At some point you really just have to call out the policymakers that insist on keeping this system as evil. They know that people are dying from eating too much of the only things they pay farmers to produce, while they also make sure that people cannot afford to pay for more of what they need. It's predatory behaviour.
I love how everything you were taught in the 80s about food was exactly wrong.
Dr. Maring is making happen what every M.D. should be making: preventing and treating diseases with optimum nutrition.
Couldn't stop smiling during the Farmer's Market segment
Americans need to come together to demand a change in our food policies. It takes the policy makers, farmers, food supplier and the family to make for a healthier people.
I could listen to Susan Combs all day. She makes a lot of sense. I also have a crush on the tone of her voice. ☺
Another thing I noticed is that people need to learn how to cook / make yummy meals. It’s so much easier to eat healthy if the food tastes good. I thought I wasn’t a salad person until I found recipes online that I did like.
I still do not understand why it has to be "small farmer". In Europe (Spain, Italy) we got big farmers that grow up tomatoes, broccolis, carrots, and make money. They send it to the markets (not local markets, just city markets) in big boxes in refrigerated trucks, and the sellers gives you the amount of fruit/vegetable you need (1 kg, 2, kg...). No need for strange equipment, just fridges and 20-30 kg boxes (and food is cheaper, btw)
I bought FRESH broccoli 🥦 2 bunches 3.00 let’s stop with the money thing ..people need to take responsibility for their health …my parents made me eat vegetables as a kid .period
I cook from scratch, I was working in a healthcare facility and a resident would not eat, then one day I gave her some of my dinner 15 bean and bacon soup. She enjoyed it so much and I started bringing extra for her a few times a week.
God bless you!
What nice looking produce,kudos to places that are making them available for schools,hospitals, ect.Great looking dishes!
Good documentary. Im am still always shocked by the amount of package and plastic is used by the Americans. Meals in school and in the hospital - all is one-way/ throw away dishes wrapped in foil and plastics and aluminium. Don't you have dishwashers? Aren't you horrified by the amount of rubbish and waste that is produced and that you use?
In Germany, the number of obese people is also rising, but it is still much much less and people are rarely as obese as in UK and USA. In our stores, we also don't find as much processed food and ready-meals. People also want to be served good food in canteens and schools. There is always vegetables and different sorts of salads and raw veggie. Of course, some canteens are better, some worse. Also depends on the price. But I guess we also walk more, use more public transport (meaning: You have to walk and stand, too) and ride our bikes. We don't have that aggressive advertisement from Kellogg's & Co. During children's program on the public television, there is no advertisement. That's not the case with the (more in number, of course) private TV-stations. TV-Shows and programs in the US-TV are also often interrupted by advertisement. We don't have that as much. Guess, it all adds up to being still not as obese as the US or UK. But who knows, children are more often obese or at least overweight compared to before. Adults are more often overweight or obese. Problem is: the poorer part of the population (and you don't have to be really poor, but earning just below average) and fresh food (fruit and vegetables) are expensive, if not bought at a discount supermarket, where fruits often don't taste very good.
Still: So much fresh food is being thrown away. Day by day. Who can understand??
also someone mentions subsidizing. They subsidize because thats what we are buying which means thats what they are making money from. If we stop eating like crap they will have no choice but to stop. It starts with US
You make the best sense. Its basic supply and demand. We have to want the fruits and vegetables as a nation, if not then fat chance that anything will change. Especially, when you gave this fat acceptance movement that says or thinks that can be healthy at any size!
But why don't people want to eat healthily? Because food has been engineered to be more delicious and addictive. It is true that the individual must change but it does ignore that the supply came before the demand. Many have been raised on this stuff.
You forgot : THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF LOCAL FRESH
FOOD, ETC,ETC
I have unfortunately, been in the hospital several times. If a patient isn’t on a restricted diet, the amount of junk food on the menu is shocking. Interesting 11 years later, I think there would be a lot more discussion about proteins.
People eat what they have access to. Your location and your $$$ determines what you eat. So yes, eating healthy is great but if you don't have access either because of location (there not being any stores) or lack of $$ you aren't eating tomatotes.
I don't live in a so-called food desert and yet, there are obese people everywhere. I think we offer too many excuses for lazy, self-indulgent behavior. It's not the government's fault, not the school's fault, not the vending machine at work, either. It's what you shove in your pie hole, plain and simple. Nobody is holding fat people down and force feeding them soda pop and pepperoni pizza.
nothing about sugar subsidies.
At least this doctor cares
The "thumbs up"-guy (the regional farmers logistics guy) has access to fresh regional food and is so overweight. I don't get it. Also: Oranges cut one day and served the next day, same with the salad portions: I guess, the will stand in the freezer room overnight. That is a lot of energy to keep it more or less fresh. At least it will look kind of fresh, vitamins partly gone. And also: Plastic and one-time-use-cups. You have to change that! I mean, you wouldn't get lobster on plastic or styrofoam-plates here. In the US: no problem at all.
I am sure, the staff in the hospital kitchen are much happier now with really cooking and preparing real food (not only opening tins and boxes and stirring with water and heating it up).
It must suck living in the Mid-West where healthy food isn't abundant. I'm glad I live in Southern CA.
I've had several hospital stays and found it hard to eat healthy. Weird.
your missing the point. WHy die in missory and pain. and why spend tons of money on other peoples health issues if we can help them make better choices
Team EX3
You saw how the Country scoffed at Michel Obama's efforts to feed kids a more wholesome diet...
Please, type in Ingrid Newkirk's 'Animal kind', thank you.
What is it about?
So many people resented Michel Obama's 'interfering' with what our kids are eating saying they didn't think the Government should be telling us what to eat. Ha! Little do people realize that's already been going on for years and our tax dollars are paying for the the fat consequences...☠️
‘Everything is hurting now’ ..I wonder why? 😮
some people would not eat free broccoli and pay double for ice cream
6:16 Does this guy really buy into nutrition? He laments the subsidies for corn/wheat/soybeans but he didn’t get so obese by eating fruits and vegetables.
Ohhhh! Give me a cookie!😩😟😬😬😬😬
The answer is: hydroponics.
iphone + cloths > healty food
That did not look like a blood orange
Fruits are overrated. As a matter of fact I would keep fruit consumption low. It's the sugar and fast carbs that creates trouble. You need alot of insulin to break that down. Eat low GI. Eat lean meat and protein in general and add natural fat plus veggies. That way you'll avoid spikes in blood sugar levels and ensure low insulin level.
If you’re getting daily exercise and enough sleep then a couple of pieces of fruit a day won’t hurt. I agree too much is unhealthy. But fruit is not what’s causing the western worlds obesity epidemic.
metabolism. Disagree I think fruits are bad too. Better to stick with one fourth of cup of berries, pray with more breads,candy refined sugar pop mabey diet is ok but limit it. An obese person cant have but only one fruit per day. Meats and healthy fats. Back in the 50s they blame fats but it's when the sugar and bread industry came along b4 that bread was not so heavenly processed but now it's bad. That's we hat created obesity high process foods junk foods and gmo fruits and veggies with pesticides and herbicides that make a person hungry. Also get plenty of sleep. And stress can make you gain weight without eating cause it raises cortisone levels in your body. You can be doing everything right and still gain weight! Dam just looking at food and ha ing a bad life can do it. I know people in ludington me who eat deviant and exercise and still gain weight so it h
Helps to keep stress out! If possible!
@spirals 73 well of course if you've got a specific medical condition you should limit consumption. The point I'm trying to make is most people are drinking sodas and eating candies that are all sugar and have no nutritional value. But if you are living a healthy lifestyle with daily exercise, stress management, healthy diet and enough sleep, and you don't have medical condition such as you do, then a bit of fruit here and there shouldn't cause you issues. I love a bit of watermelon on a hot day.
Most Americans are not eating enough fruit but they are overrated!😂 You do know there are certain fruits that will not spike blood sugar, right? 🤔
@@residentjess Yes. Tomato is a fruit with very low GI. Many people think its a vegetable, some say it's both. Some Mango types are low on carbs too. But I stay clear of most fruits to lower my blood sugar and keep insulin low.
Only the rich can afford to feed whole families on fresh, good vegetables in Australia
That's not true.
it's what we put "ON" our foods that have a big impact also. a baked potato is good = fries dipped in ketchup is not
Good doctor, what's up with his eye tho
It's a glass eye you rocket scientist.
MDs fountain pop buy a liter for a buck and a free refill and seen people here going up to the pop fountain three and four times the obeas people in there makes me sick to look at them.I dont go there for a coffee anymore.I went to lemon water.when you see people waddle I shake my head in what in the hell is this person doing with a liter glass of pop and and a dollar ice cream in the other hand MDs shame on you .speaking from pictou county Nova Scotia Canada .the obesity is out of control here.
If you worry your kids don't get enough fruits and vegetables, you're not alone. That's why Apple and Eve created Fruitables, fruit and vegetable juice blend. Fruitables are the convenient way to give your kids one full serving of fruits and vegetables. They naturally have one-third less sugar, and come in three fruit flavors kids love. Give your kids the healthier juice box: Fruitables, fruit and vegetable juice blends.
FYI, information for better shopping.
Idk why this video had me smiling so much man.
to all obese folks .
i challenge you to try this diet for a year. 2 palm sized servings of grilled lean meat a day. 600 mls of low fat milk a day. 2 big bowls of greens with 2 table spoons of extra virgin olive oil a day. a bowl of oats a day. all the whole apples you can eat.
I'm going keto carnavoir. Our ancestors ate nothing but meat. And berries and were thinner. Yes a little bit of exercise is helpful but its.modtly your deit,genetics and your metabalism.
This programme is not reflecting the real cause of obesity.
I appreciate the small farmers concerns and their will to move into increasing production...reaching broad markets and changing consumers attitudes.
However..this video looks like vegan diet propaganda.
Never takes under consideration whatsoever fact that it's SUGAR ..STARCHES AND VEGETABLE OILS that are true reason for obesity epidemic...to point to just the basic few.
Nobody mentions meat farmers either .
WHY!?
Meat..as fatty as possible..full cheese...full milk...butter...eggs ect. are the paramount in proper nutrition ...and by that..keeping ppl slimmer and healthy.
Many fruits are NOT A desired choice for they contain excessive amounts of fructose or starch and not enough desirable nutrients.
Ie. banana.. pineapple..mango..evrn an apple is controversial.
Focus on good fats ..as saturated as possible...fatty meats..fatty fish..leafy veggies and ..somr fruits..mostly berries.
Adios obesity!!!
Some fruits are sweeter than others. Also, keep in mind that fruits have fiber in them. I have yet to meet someone that eats too many vegetables and fruits but I have met people that eat too much meats and animal products. So most Americans would benefit from eating fruits and veggies. Did you miss the part where it said not enough Americans are consuming these? Did you also miss the fact that industrial farming is not producing the most nutritious fruits and veggies?
Kids are mostly just bored .....they have nothing to do unless we as parents teach them...let them walk to school ...if that concerns you walk with them ...I did...and enjoyed the time. Teach them about nutrition ....stop giving them money to buy fast food because your to lazy to cook for them!!!
If you allow them to shop and prepare with them they can understand. Stop parking them in front of computer.....give them some chores ....there are so many ways to help around the house and garden ....stop giving them so much money ....give a small allowance let them spend part of it on their treats. Teach them to budget ...get off your lazy butts and do your job as a caretaker .
here is my advise for your health if you keep eating the white mans toxic junk food one day you will get cancer or heart disease ; How to stay healthy ...; kenogenic meet diet and eating fat will give you heart disease ,liver disease , kidney desease - dyalisis , it will give you a fatty liver , Gallbladder disease and will plug up the pancreas ducts with fat and make you insulin resistant dont eat any type of oil or fat , no chease , no dairy .I have a question. Which is worse, millions of of poor Africans starving to death or Millions of Americans Eating them selves to death ?...Americans eating to death are worse, because they actually "can make a "choice" not to eat too much. They're lacking of self control , ""discipline"" . Those poor Africans do not have choices but to starve.
The biggest problem with controlling diabetes and weight through diet is the lazy human variable. You can lead a horse to water but cant force them to drink. Most people rather eat fast food , factory frozen food ,protein powder made in china full of casein ,
pills or shoot insulin than to change their shitty eating habits. We live in an "instant gratification"
society full of people with 0 discipline or work ethic.
Sad but true .....
"Fasting" and "intermediate fasting" is the cure (controlling insulin)....... for those people who are over weight
and UN-healthy , you should get
this book by Dr. Jason Fung from Toronto Canada his book will cure
obesity and type two diabetes the book is called ; The Obesity Code: Unlocking the Secrets of Weight Loss , go to Amazon and check the reviews ; www.amazon.com/Obesity-Code-Unlocking-Secrets-Weight/dp/1771641258
if you want to lose weight watch your intake of carbs, but be careful since the equivalent of 12
teaspoons
of sugar happens very quickly.
For example:
• 1 cup of milk equals = 2 teaspoons of sugar
• 1 cup of rice (cooked) equals = 9 teaspoons of sugar
• 1 banana equals equals = 5 teaspoons of sugar
• 1 baked potato equals = 7 teaspoons of sugar
• 1 sweet potato = 8 teaspoons of sugar
• 1 cup of strawberries equals = 2.5 teaspoons of sugar (low sugar)
• 1/2grapefruit = 2 teaspoons of sugar
- Coca cola (one can) - 8.25 teaspoons of sugar
- Raisin Bran cereal - 7.75 teaspoons of sugar (per 100grams)
- Grapes fruit - 4 teaspoons of sugar (per 100grams)
- Tomatoes - 0.7 teaspoons of sugar (per 100grams)
- 1 Muffin (one chocolate chip muffin) - 4.75 teaspoons of sugar
- Special K cereal - 3 teaspoons of sugar (per 100grams)
- Corn Flakes - 2.4 teaspoons of sugar (per 100grams)
- Alpen cereal - 5.75 teaspoons of sugar (per 100grams)
- Mangos fruit - 3.2 teaspoons of sugar (per 100grams)
- A cup of seedless prunes has, in effect, 25 teaspoons of sugar !
Scientists find in comparing the sugar levels in the blood after the
consumption of a snickers bar that has 8.5 teaspoons of sugar the same
as two bread slices ! . The sugar equivalent is of 1 large bagel a
whopping 12 teaspoons of sugar !
Lastly, it is worth noting that there are many breads that a single
slice of which will raise your blood sugar more than a US Snickers bar
(which has a GI of 68/97)…if the Glycemic Index can be believed. You
can browse the table yourself to see. I’ve included some of the more
interesting ones below.
Breads that have a higher Glycemic Index than a Snickers bar:
Also don't eat fruit if your plan is to lose weight ; all fruit will cause your insulin to go up .Every morning Instead eat one lime or lemon (organic) with warm filtered water everyday , natural vitamin c from lime or lemons make your arteries strong and healthy and cleans your liver and kidneys water and lemon (warm) cold water is bad for your liver .
If you have heart disease take 1000 mg of magnesium every day and watch this video about heart disease by Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn MD

The more meat and dairy you eat the more fat you eat and alcohol you
drink ; The more weight you gain . Fat and alcohol creates more Estrogen
in your body ...more Estrogen in the body more weight you gain ...and
The more hormone-cancers like breast cancer and prostate cancer.The
solution is to eat a plant base organic diet (Vegetarian ) coffee ,
sweets, beer , junk food , red meat dairy raises your estrogen in the
body . Vegetarian diet and exercise will bring down estrogen . life is
about the choice you make in life ! alcohol , red meat ,
dairy & fat equals = estrogen------------more estrogen in your body
equals = lots of weight gain Vegetarian plant base diet , no sugar, no wheat , no
alcohol , no coffee , and exercise every day is the solution to lose
weight and bring down estrogen . if you're not
born with the skinny gene ! than you have only one solution eating low
fat healthy diet and exercise .and sleep 9 hours at least , go to bed
early so your hormones are not out of control . I you don't get good
sleep you will not lose weight . you must fast , and not eat every hour
.control your insulin ! You must not use any type of sweetners , no
Stevia either , Stevia also raises your insulin and you gain weight !
no sugar no sweeteners .Insulin resistance comes primarily sugar ,carbs and from the fat we eat . fat accumulates in the pancreas ducts and slowly you become insulin resistant... Eat a organic whole food plant based diets are very low in fat and the fat we wear.. being over fat causes fats to be put into the blood and recirculated back to fat cells. Although a bit over simplified this characterization of the problem helps persons understand why by cutting fats out of their diet their serum glucoses improve quickly. As they lose fat off their body and get down to normal weight and they continue to improve but more gradually .
"Chicken poultry" ; contains a "virus" that cause "obesity" "google chicken virus causes obesity : don't eat chicken , red meat or any dairy . Eat organic and only eat two meals a day . Intermediate fasting will shrink your stomach naturally ; when you're hungry eat "resistant starches" like half green banana , Artichokes , "barley" is great it will make you full and is so healthy, Use Barley instead of rice or cereals .Eat barley every day make sure its organic and sleep 10 hours a night ,
if you can't sleep at night take 2 mg of melotonin on empty stomach 2 hour before bed time .Melotonin will bring down estrogen and help you lose weight and help you with insulin resistant and many other diseases. If you are over 40 you should take melotonin every night . If you're over 50 yrs old you can take 50 mg. of DHEA hormone will give you energy and help you lose weight ,,.40 mg. of zinc also good for older folks
. and last do light weights Walk 12 thousand steps a day after dinner .Don't over exercise or it will make you over eat .and last don't eat chocolate , chocolate is a stimulant .
This is the best Book for people who 'are diabetic its very old book but it will help you cure type two ; its called ; Diabetes and the hypoglycemic syndrome: Facts, findings and natural treatments :

Fruits are very high in carbs.for example an apple has the same amount of carbs and sugar a apple does.25 carbs in a apple plus 25 grams of sugar in it since its genetically modified. So only have one half a apple when you eat it or one fourth of a apple. Bananas are the same as apples. I believe an orange has got 30 total carbs and sugar. Blueberries blackberries raspberries is a lot lower.i only can have one eight cup of nlueberries.2 pieces of meat per day and a tablespoon of fat on them since I get lean. On the Atkins keto diet. No bread! Cakes,pies,chips ecvept pork rines in.moderation. nuts are in moderation more more than 6 to 10 nuts.
Forget carbs... It's ALL about fiber consumption. Female 25 grams daily make 30-38 grams daily.
To a food addict that all sounds like severe restriction and mental torture. It’s hard to imagine eating right when you’ve been doing it wrong your entire life.
Get this before TRUMP
i'd rather eat fruits and veggies then junk food but my paychecks can't cover the cost of the produce
Have you looked at something like SNAP benefits? Anyways I hope your situation has improved.
I hate greenhouse tomato's
Thanks to the republicans!
The worst advice you can give an obese person is to eat more fruit.
Bullshit.
That's crap
No, the worst advice you can give is for them to change nothing.
Bullshit! Eat whatever you like. Obesity is a matter of choice. It is simply a question of personal responsibility to limit the quantity of what you eat.
BULLSHIT! Eat whatever you like. The problem is not the quality of the food you eat... it is the quantity! I have never heard of anyone getting fat on what they did NOT eat. You get what you expect. Have you ever heard of the placebo or nobebo effect? Check it out.
The quality of food does matter. Do you really think processed foods have the same nutritional value as fresh foods?! Yeah, processed foods might be okay in tiny quantities but it should not make the bulk of someone’s diet.
