His explanation on the benefits of greens was awesome, clear, and very understandable. I've never heard what he said before and should be taught in our local public schools. My family and I really need to eat more plants. I've incorporated more greens and vegetables in general but it is not easy since we've been eating junk for years. Now my husband is recovering from stroke and I'm over weight and one out of 4 of my children struggle with autism. Pray for us that we can make this transition and get healthy and stay healthy.
@@ziggyziggy6860 Does he usually include watercress? I'm thinking maybe it varies from recitation to recitation. B/c he didn't list 'beets' in the 'rap' but they were in the "Top 5". & I think 'collards' and 'collard greens' are the exact same thing?? So maybe that should'a been "collard greens, beets, beet greens" instead of "collards, collard greens, beet greens"...just trying to write them all down! :)
Strokes run in my family and my Lipoprotein (a) was elevated and I’m 48 years old. I need to follow this life style. No one around me wants to do it, but I have to. I wish I could go live with this family for a year❤️🤗. Thank you for doing what you all do🥰Much blessing
@@wrongworld I wish I could say I have been eating the amount of greens like they say to, but I haven’t. I did give up meat and dairy for a while, but my calcium and bun/creatinine went low. So I added back in low fat dairy and lean meats and that did help. My diet has gotten worse, eating out to much and sweets. I haven’t been taken care of myself at all. I do for everyone else and then Im exhausted to take care of myself. Im just in a rut right now, but I truly feel God is with me and Im going to get myself together. Just you asking me this question I feel was a blessing. I know I have to keep trying to take care of myself. I know for me I can’t go full vegan, but I can add more of the greens into my diet. I pray you stay well. Good luck ❤️
It's so sweet how Jane looks at her dad as he's talking...so adoringly. She is definitely his 'mini me' and you can tell she absolutely loves him (and mom ☺️).
I love you all not only because you have changed my health but also because you are sweet and fun and silly and knowledgable. Thanks for another greens reminder.
When my kids were small I told them that Brussels Sprouts were just for adults because it made them smarter, but if they didn’t tell anyone I would sneak them a few. Forbidden treats taste best, lol! They both love Brussels Sprouts now.
regarding organic, i was told by a produce manager at a market that sells all organic only veggies and fruit that the only difference between organic and non organic is the amount of spray that is used. He said both are treated with some kind of spray. Typically the organic are treated once with a LOT of spray vs the non organic which is treated multiple times throughout the growing season. He asked me..when is the last time you saw a wormy apple in a grocery store, whether it was organic or not organic..it's been a long long time. He said, that is because both are treated
An old gardener advised me years ago to “treat cut greens like cut flowers”. So I keep mine in a vase on the kitchen windowsill. If the end of the stalk has already dried up and died, I’ll trim it off before putting it in the vase. Then when I start cooking I pick leaves out of the vase as I need them.
I wish I could, but they don't sell them in bunches where I live. There are all sorts of cabbages and lettuces that you can buy whole and sometimes andivi, kale comes pre-shredded in plastic bags (as a kid I had no idea what the plant looked like, only knew the bags and the flavour of the leaves) and most other greens they do not sell at all! I cannot get chard, collard greens, mustard greens or beet greens. I feel like we have so little variety in green leaves in the Netherlands, it makes me a bit sad...
@@firstclassstupid97 They're not so hard to grow, even in a pot in the kitchen. Arugula, especially, is a cut-and-come again veg. Once your seedlings reach a couple of inches, cut off half to eat and allow the rest to regrow.
I eat a pound of organic kale a day. I buy it in a 1lb bag and eat four hand fulls in my noon smoothie and the rest before dinner, steamed and put in a bowl with balsamic vinegar. Thanks Doc!
My dad passed in 93 at age 60 from his 3rd, and most massive heart attack. I wish I knew your dad many years ago! Thank you for this channel, and please give Dr. E a BIG BIG hug from me! I have already outlived my dad by a few years...and expect a lot more years to come xoxo
for storing the greens.... put all greens/veggies in sink with water to wash/rinse. Then the trick to make them last nice and PERKY for a week or so ( if they are not eaten first by then ) is in a tray or storage drawer, place them all in (i usually have tow or three on the go) is to PLACE A WET cotton clean dishtowel on top!!!! and throughout the week re-wet it. You will be amazed and how quick and time and money saving this is and much less waste.
Thanks very much! I put what you wrote in a list form for easy instructions for others. 🙂 To Store Greens & Veggies Wash/rinse greens & veggies in sink with water. Place them on a tray or in a storage drawer, then place a clean wet cotton dish towel on top. Throughout the week, re-wet the dish towel.
I like to roast halved Brussels sprouts (frozen, slightly thawed to cut) with chopped butternut squash and chopped Pink Lady or other apples. There is enough sweetness in this mixture you don't need syrup or any other seasoning. I roast them at 425F on parchment for about 45 minutes.
Susan Prepejchal I stumbled across your comment, did precisely as you suggested....absolutely amazing!!! Yummy!!! Thank you for sharing. Good health to you 😊🇦🇺
Greens tip: FOR CILANTRO: remove from package and put into jar/container with the stems in water, keep refrigerated. This GREATLY extends the "fridge life" of cilantro. I sorted this out myself in the last year--yes, like they show the kale, etc. here. ON BOILING---DRINK THE WATER!!! it's so tasty! Pot Liquor! (greens tea)
I blend the entire bunch in some water, pour into ice trays, freeze, add to my soups when done or throw into my smoothies. Do the same thing with parsley.
@@lucybellescott7531 i always prefer it roughly chopped, but this is a great idea for when I have some left that I know will not keep any longer, thanks!
@@martinemeeks5065 i chop mine up and ....throw it all in the bin! hahaaaa yes im one of those people who cant taste anything but SOAP when they eat cilantro.
I’ve had brussel sprouts before that I’ve loved and I’ve had them where they had too intense flavor that I didn’t like. I’ll try the maple syrup and or balsamic in the oven. Please do more of these videos on different greens. A spotlight on different ones and how to cook them. Just like you did in this video😀
I love you guys! You are both goofy and wise at the same time. My favorite line is "Lord, if you're never going to eat another cherry because it's not organic, it makes me sad." VERY enjoyable and educational. Thanks for your inspiration!
What a powerful presence this man has...I’m certain I forgot to breathe whilst he was speaking. Thank you from the bottom of my strong healthy 53 year old heart xxx
Ppl commenting he is out of breath. Remember, this guy is 90. Still walking around and sharp as a tack. I believe he still cycles, too. Ive seen footage. Pretty impressive. He always sounds out of breath ever since the 1990's but the fact that it hasnt caved in on him means its just a sound. Not-bad-for-90
Your dad is awesome! Now I'm definitely chewing my greens! Keep up the great videos and your mom is so wonderful and just love how she shows so much respect to your dad!
Brussels Sprouts are my favorite next to Tuscany Kale, I purchase a large bag or at least 2 lbs. of organic Brussels sprouts each week, and wash them in a big stainless bowl of reverse/osmosis water, then I toss off all the dead or lose leaves and compost that. I cut in halves each sprout, spray organic olive oil on them sprinkle with cumin, or curry powder, then bake face down at 350 degrees for 15 minutes, with sauteed onions, and minced Tuscany kale, use vegan mayo, Veganaise with lemon juice and eat them for a meal 1 Then sometimes, I shredded the Brussels Sprouts, with other organic veggies such as REd, or Green Cabbage, with raw red onions, shredded carrots, torn arugula, radicchio, kale, pumpkin seeds, and dried cranberries, or dried cherries both organic and soy-free Veganaise as a meal too!! I like varieties of veggies blended together, and eaten daily !!
What a great lesson, yet again, from Dr. Esselstyn. I’m new to this channel, just received the Woman Warrior cookbook and SO HAPPY I’m on my WFPB path. To true health!!
I cut brussels sprouts in half, put them on a tray, single layer, bake for 30 minutes at 350. They blacken a little. Then I just dip them in mustard. I can barely get them to the table they're so good.
@@lucybellescott7531 I never use my oven, its all 100% toaster oven for me. I have two of them, one is $30, other is a Convection Oven as well, cost me a little more but its great.
I absolutely love hearing Dr. Esselstyn talk about health. Thanks Ann and Jane for making everything taste so good. I like Chef AJ’s recipe for brussel sprouts with dijon and balsamic.
My hubby HATES Brussels sprouts, but walked in on the tail end of this video and said he'd give them a try if I prepared them the same way... SCORE! I eat them steamed, in the airfryer sprayed with balsamic vinegar and coconut aminos and raw shaved in salads. LOVE them!
My daughters love Brussel spouts too!!! Our favorite way is to shred them with some garlic powder, onion powder, turmeric and curry powder and roast!!!! So yummy!!! I like mine with balsamic....
Halve the sprouts then cook them in an air fryer. It softens the sprouts while crisping the outer leaves to bring out the flavor. Tossed with sesame dressing and you have a meal!
I bought a bag of shredded Brussels sprouts at Wegman’s and did they roasting version. I left them in until I could smell them almost burning. They are now my new potato chip! Amazing!
Im learning so much. Im trying to reverse some health issues I have been noticing. On top of the fact that I am in my final semester of RN school and so many of my patients are Congestive heart failure or Heart failure patients. I can help with patient education with all of this information.
Oven roasted Brussels sprouts, halved, with maple syrup and balsamic vinegar is my family’s favorite way to eat them! I’ve never sliced or shaved them so that could be interesting.
Jane, to one of those questions about cooking greens, I would like to suggest use an instant pot if you own one! Then you don’t have to throw away any water since your greens are steaming rather than boiling! Highly recommend getting one if you can for quickly cooking beans and lentils!
So great to hear the actual science behind the 'eat more greens' message. I do not have heart disease, but it does occur in my family history, so I am now whole-food-plant-based, low SOS for prevention. My weight has normalized and I have much more energy than I did in the past, PLUS, I can eat as much as I want (and I love food) without gaining weight. Thank you for these videos, your books, and your ongoing support of plant-based lifestyles. Cheers!
This is the first time I've seen Doc show up with the ladies. Thank you for sharing your adorable family with us all these years. I live seeing Ann's face light up when she sees her groom
this is like part 2. i think the first lecture he gave on here was called GREENS GREENS GREENS or GREENS 6X A DAY? it was a beaut too. this episode here is like a continuation of it.
This is an excellent idea, I steam my lunch time veggies, always, kale, red or napa cabbage, collard greens, brussel sprouts, broccoli or cauliflower, and a choice of 2 other veggies and some mushrooms. When I have steamed the veggies the water in the bottom of the pay is a beautiful emerald green and I always dump it out, I will save it tomorrow and use it in some veggie soup.
@@martinemeeks5065 You'll be glad you did is really flavorful and when you use kale in a recipe cut the stalk in large pieces and put it in with the broth and then after you've cooked your broth or your soup you can take the stalks out!
@@mauricepowers3804 I think I am an oddball when it comes to kale, I really enjoy the stalks and never discard them, I am the same way with broccoli, I enjoy the stalk more than the tops. Today I will make soup for dinner with my veggie steam water left over from lunch. Thank you my friend.
Thank you Doctor Esselstyn for your guest appearance in today’s video ❤️ I am super excited to attend the March event in Cleveland ❤️ Thank you Jane and Ann for the yummy 😋 reminder to eat more GREENS 🥬 🥦
Also, thank you so much, Ann and Jane, for your amazing videos. And thank you so much, Dr. Esselstyn, for replicating the heart studies!!! You are a hero, for sure.
Good morning, I always cut my brussels sprouts in half, steam them for a few minutes and then put them in a bowl toss them in maple balsamic vinegar then air fry them for 12 minutes on 400° they come out wonderful. My grandchildren will scarf them up. Have a great day! Much love 💕
I'm a collard fan. With mushrooms, they make an excellent filling for tacos. And they also go very very well on pinto beans with salsa. But they don't seem to be part of traditional Mexican cuisine.
We steam and roast Brussels sprouts. And we grate them and drizzle with some Balsamic vinegar for a raw slaw. Or roast with some small red potatoes the same size with fresh rosemary. We grow green and purple ones.
I buy bags of flash frozen Brussels sprouts, broccoli and cauliflower put them in a glass bowl with a little water in a reservoir in the middle of the bowl. I then cover that and microwave for a few minutes. I bought some balsamic vinegar to dip them in.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting Dr. Esselstyn get his message out! I love listening to him talk. He needs to be your guest more often. Shredded brussels sprouts are so yummy!
Can I *like* this video five or ten times? So much to love about the Ann & Jane show-the unaffected joy of sharing their knowledge, background crashes and all!
It's an important point about using a mandoline. For newcomers... all you need to eat this way is a knife and a cutting board... and a pan, of course. Mainly, I'm saying thanks for showing how simple this plan is. I love the idea of drinking the cooking water instead of tea. Yum. I pretty much make one dish meals, so everything gets incorporated into the meal. I seldom 'boil' greens in water that needs to be thrown away, or used in some other way. Interesting. I hadn't even thought about that as an issue. Making one dish meals, is a great way to increase intake of all those greens and other wonderful vegis, that we (especially those new to the whole food plan) Plus I'm too lazy to make a lot of separate dishes... lol. It's been fun to include a lot of greens that I haven't tried before. Thanks for all the tips and introducing us to some fun ways to enjoy some great greens.
Oh my gosh! You're my new idols! I've been wanting to find some women around my age that care about their health. In my little town in Humboldt County Ca. I'm the only one in my circle of friends that really watches what I eat. Looking forward to binge-watching. Blessings.
I am so grateful to you all for your efforts in starting this Channel ty so much because it is obvious that a lot of care and concern goes into these videos by Dr Essylstyn and his family have for those willing to listen and to change and I have! Ty once again! 💚
I love that your mom loves the crunchy roasted veggies! My Brussel sprouts are slow cooked on the cut side until caramelized, the I toss in balsamic vinegar and toss with a dash of orange juice!
Love seeing you both -When using aluminium foil, better to layer the foil with baking paper first. Stops aluminium touching the food and leaching, at cooking temps, into your lovely veggies x
Thank you for having Dr. Esselstyn on! He is so informative and I learned so much! He also explains things so we can understand things! Hope to see more of him, by the way love you ladies as well, I’ve learned a lot from you both as well!😊🥬🍆🥦 I am a faithful follower and love your cookbook:))
I cannot even express the amount of respect and admiration that I have for Dr. Esselstyn. I adore you Jane and all your videos with your mom! You just have no idea how much your specific family has impacted my life. In addition to all the wonderful intelligent plant-based physicians out there! I developed fibromyalgia in my mid 40s in my entire world was flipped upside down. I was a vegetarian and I eat a lot of cheese… As a -based vegan my world has been flipped back right side up and I have this unbelievable amount of strength, and complete recovery from a pain that fibromyalgia put on me that is unexplainable. Thank you for all that you and your family do, sincerely from the bottom of my heart. Just a simple lady out in this world grateful for your videos!!!❤️
i like them cooked with sweet potatoes and mushrooms, especially woodsy kind I get at asian market or shitaki, on bit of veg juice, then some hummus, maybe bit of salsa, sprinkle of black sesame
This was really great. I know it was hard to let your dad have the complete podium, Jane. It's easy to see your respect for your parents and their love and respect for you. All of this was just what I needed to hear. Thanks!!! Can't wait for your next one.
My favorite cure for a headache. Boil about about a quart of quart of water, add a large bag of spinach. Cook until the water turns bright green. Save the spinach to eat later. Drink the “spinach broth “ while warm. You can add a pinch of pink salt. Headache will usually disappear within about 20 minutes. This was taught to me by my grandmother who said “any dark greens would do”.
I've never liked brussels sprouts but I'm willing to give them another try with that last method you used. Also, thank you Dr. Esselstyn for all the useful information:)
i really enjoyed and learned so much from listening to Dr Esselstyn about eating more greens . I also like that you can cook with what you have in your kitchen, I wouldn't have to buy some huge machines to process or pressure cook. Thank you.
I always find your videos informative. As someone who has experienced a heart attack, and received two stents, I absorb any information your father gives. Thank all of you!
I always look forward to your videos and learn a lot from them. Also, what a special treat it is to have the honorable Dr. Esselstyn remind us of the importance of greens and why we can't have oil (a hard for me. I needed the reminder.)
Wow, a few minutes here with Dr. Esselstyn has helped me so much! I have been plant-based and love love love greens with basalmic dressing. Wonderful to know what I love will help us! Thank you Jane, Ann and Dr. E!
I love the way Jane and Ann admire their Dad/husband. Yet he doesn't act snooty, he is so kind and loving. What a great man and his family!
Shred them in the food processor, add lime juice and minced garlic and stir fry with a tiny amount of veggie broth....delicious!
That sounds good
thank you, will try
This sounds delicious!
Sounds yummy! Thanks

My hubby HATES Brussels sprouts, but walked in on the tail end of this video and said he'd give them a try if I prepared them the same way... SCORE! I eat them steamed, in the airfryer sprayed with balsamic vinegar and coconut aminos and raw shaved in salads. LOVE them!
My daughters love Brussel spouts too!!! Our favorite way is to shred them with some garlic powder, onion powder, turmeric and curry powder and roast!!!! So yummy!!! I like mine with balsamic....
Halve the sprouts then cook them in an air fryer. It softens the sprouts while crisping the outer leaves to bring out the flavor. Tossed with sesame dressing and you have a meal!
I bought a bag of shredded Brussels sprouts at Wegman’s and did they roasting version. I left them in until I could smell them almost burning. They are now my new potato chip! Amazing!
Doc's voice is so soothing. I could sit rapt listening to him read the phone book.
Lol
Im learning so much. Im trying to reverse some health issues I have been noticing. On top of the fact that I am in my final semester of RN school and so many of my patients are Congestive heart failure or Heart failure patients. I can help with patient education with all of this information.
Dr. Esselstyn is fantastic! I so enjoy hearing his wealth of educational info!
I cannot always a Ford organic, but I wash my vegetables with white vinegar and baking soda and water cleans them really well
Oven roasted Brussels sprouts, halved, with maple syrup and balsamic vinegar is my family’s favorite way to eat them! I’ve never sliced or shaved them so that could be interesting.
I melted with the hugzzzz. ☺️ And I thought it was cute the camera had to pan up to get the Dr’s head in the frame!! Love you guys
I never get tired of watching the two of you, especially Ann! Wonderful, very informative videos EVERY time!
Jane, to one of those questions about cooking greens, I would like to suggest use an instant pot if you own one! Then you don’t have to throw away any water since your greens are steaming rather than boiling! Highly recommend getting one if you can for quickly cooking beans and lentils!
So great to hear the actual science behind the 'eat more greens' message. I do not have heart disease, but it does occur in my family history, so I am now whole-food-plant-based, low SOS for prevention. My weight has normalized and I have much more energy than I did in the past, PLUS, I can eat as much as I want (and I love food) without gaining weight. Thank you for these videos, your books, and your ongoing support of plant-based lifestyles. Cheers!
This is the first time I've seen Doc show up with the ladies. Thank you for sharing your adorable family with us all these years. I live seeing Ann's face light up when she sees her groom
this is like part 2. i think the first lecture he gave on here was called GREENS GREENS GREENS or GREENS 6X A DAY? it was a beaut too. this episode here is like a continuation of it.
I save all my water from potatoes kale carrots whatever I may have boiled I save it and use it for veggie stock
This is an excellent idea, I steam my lunch time veggies, always, kale, red or napa cabbage, collard greens, brussel sprouts, broccoli or cauliflower, and a choice of 2 other veggies and some mushrooms. When I have steamed the veggies the water in the bottom of the pay is a beautiful emerald green and I always dump it out, I will save it tomorrow and use it in some veggie soup.
@@martinemeeks5065 You'll be glad you did is really flavorful and when you use kale in a recipe cut the stalk in large pieces and put it in with the broth and then after you've cooked your broth or your soup you can take the stalks out!
@@mauricepowers3804 I think I am an oddball when it comes to kale, I really enjoy the stalks and never discard them, I am the same way with broccoli, I enjoy the stalk more than the tops. Today I will make soup for dinner with my veggie steam water left over from lunch. Thank you my friend.
Martine Meeks Do you steam the mushrooms? What are they liked steamed?
@@shariisaac1093 yes, I put them on the very top of all of the other veggies in teh steamer basket, they are kind of chewy and add nice texture
Thank you Doctor Esselstyn for your guest appearance in today’s video ❤️ I am super excited to attend the March event in Cleveland ❤️ Thank you Jane and Ann for the yummy 😋 reminder to eat more GREENS 🥬 🥦
Also, thank you so much, Ann and Jane, for your amazing videos. And thank you so much, Dr. Esselstyn, for replicating the heart studies!!! You are a hero, for sure.
Good morning, I always cut my brussels sprouts in half, steam them for a few minutes and then put them in a bowl toss them in maple balsamic vinegar then air fry them for 12 minutes on 400° they come out wonderful. My grandchildren will scarf them up. Have a great day! Much love 💕
Yum! Great idea. I am going to try it
Oh my gosh, I have to try that!
what is maple balsamic vinegar....is this a flavor of balsamic?
sounds fantastic...im gonna copy u!
I'm a collard fan. With mushrooms, they make an excellent filling for tacos. And they also go very very well on pinto beans with salsa. But they don't seem to be part of traditional Mexican cuisine.
How do you cook your collard greens for the tacos? I'm new to this.
@@happycook6737 I cut them up and steam them for 15 minutes
OMGoodness!!! What an amazing family!!! What a darling family!!! 💗🙏🌺
We steam and roast Brussels sprouts. And we grate them and drizzle with some Balsamic vinegar for a raw slaw. Or roast with some small red potatoes the same size with fresh rosemary. We grow green and purple ones.
I buy bags of flash frozen Brussels sprouts, broccoli and cauliflower put them in a glass bowl with a little water in a reservoir in the middle of the bowl. I then cover that and microwave for a few minutes.
I bought some balsamic vinegar to dip them in.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting Dr. Esselstyn get his message out! I love listening to him talk. He needs to be your guest more often. Shredded brussels sprouts are so yummy!
Can I *like* this video five or ten times? So much to love about the Ann & Jane show-the unaffected joy of sharing their knowledge, background crashes and all!
Watched 3 times! ❤️ LOVE the longer video time!👏 Wish we were neighbors, but this is next best thing! 🌱 Love you all.
It's an important point about using a mandoline. For newcomers... all you need to eat this way is a knife and a cutting board... and a pan, of course. Mainly, I'm saying thanks for showing how simple this plan is. I love the idea of drinking the cooking water instead of tea. Yum. I pretty much make one dish meals, so everything gets incorporated into the meal. I seldom 'boil' greens in water that needs to be thrown away, or used in some other way. Interesting. I hadn't even thought about that as an issue. Making one dish meals, is a great way to increase intake of all those greens and other wonderful vegis, that we (especially those new to the whole food plan) Plus I'm too lazy to make a lot of separate dishes... lol. It's been fun to include a lot of greens that I haven't tried before. Thanks for all the tips and introducing us to some fun ways to enjoy some great greens.
Oh my gosh! You're my new idols! I've been wanting to find some women around my age that care about their health. In my little town in Humboldt County Ca. I'm the only one in my circle of friends that really watches what I eat. Looking forward to binge-watching. Blessings.
I am so grateful to you all for your efforts in starting this Channel ty so much because it is obvious that a lot of care and concern goes into these videos by Dr Essylstyn and his family have for those willing to listen and to change and I have! Ty once again! 💚
Y'all are so cute! I love the way you both showed such honor towards your daddy!❤️
I love that your mom loves the crunchy roasted veggies!
My Brussel sprouts are slow cooked on the cut side until caramelized, the I toss in balsamic vinegar and toss with a dash of orange juice!
Love seeing you both -When using aluminium foil, better to layer the foil with baking paper first. Stops aluminium touching the food and leaching, at cooking temps, into your lovely veggies x
Great idea, I’ve never ever thought about that!
Thank you for inviting us into your kitchen and allowing us to be part of your family.
Brussel sprouts are lovely shredded and eaten raw some rice wine vinegar and fresh chilli. I have it as a side salad.
Thank you for the encouragement to go plant based.
Thank you for having Dr. Esselstyn on! He is so informative and I learned so much! He also explains things so we can understand things! Hope to see more of him, by the way love you ladies as well, I’ve learned a lot from you both as well!😊🥬🍆🥦 I am a faithful follower and love your cookbook:))
Love Dr Esselstyn and the whole Esselstyn family.
Ann, your smile warms my heart.
I cannot even express the amount of respect and admiration that I have for Dr. Esselstyn. I adore you Jane and all your videos with your mom! You just have no idea how much your specific family has impacted my life. In addition to all the wonderful intelligent plant-based physicians out there! I developed fibromyalgia in my mid 40s in my entire world was flipped upside down. I was a vegetarian and I eat a lot of cheese… As a -based vegan my world has been flipped back right side up and I have this unbelievable amount of strength, and complete recovery from a pain that fibromyalgia put on me that is unexplainable. Thank you for all that you and your family do, sincerely from the bottom of my heart. Just a simple lady out in this world grateful for your videos!!!❤️
Great video. Way to let the doc speak through everything!:)
Dr. Esselstyn--you are wonderful!!!!!
Cotton pillow cases work great for storing greens and mushrooms!
I purchased flour sake dish towels for this purpose. Also works great in replacing cheese cloth as they're washable.
@@savedbygrace1582 yes, I have very old linen dish towels that I use for those kind of things too.
Great idea!
Don't forget to cook mushrooms. Raw mushrooms are dangerous.
@@maureenk1635 I always eat raw! Why are they dangerous?
Awesome people, thank you for all you do!
i like them cooked with sweet potatoes and mushrooms, especially woodsy kind I get at asian market or shitaki, on bit of veg juice, then some hummus, maybe bit of salsa, sprinkle of black sesame
I m excited!you r doing somthing really good for the future generations!! 💕 Frm India!!
This was really great. I know it was hard to let your dad have the complete podium, Jane. It's easy to see your respect for your parents and their love and respect for you. All of this was just what I needed to hear. Thanks!!! Can't wait for your next one.

My favorite cure for a headache. Boil about about a quart of quart of water, add a large bag of spinach. Cook until the water turns bright green. Save the spinach to eat later. Drink the “spinach broth “ while warm. You can add a pinch of pink salt. Headache will usually disappear within about 20 minutes. This was taught to me by my grandmother who said “any dark greens would do”.
I've never liked brussels sprouts but I'm willing to give them another try with that last method you used.
Also, thank you Dr. Esselstyn for all the useful information:)
Love this family, especially the mom so funny 😂
Just love the Esselstyn gals! Truly helping me to follow Dr. E’s recommendations with awesome cooking ideas. 🙏🏻
i really enjoyed and learned so much from listening to Dr Esselstyn about eating more greens . I also like that you can cook with what you have in your kitchen, I wouldn't have to buy some huge machines to process or pressure cook. Thank you.
I just love watching you beautiful ladies every day! And yes I could hear the crunch! Yum!!
I always find your videos informative. As someone who has experienced a heart attack, and received two stents, I absorb any information your father gives. Thank all of you!
I'd love to have Dr Esselstyn do his list of greens to a little beat. It would be a great ringtone.
It would actually 😂
thanx. essy's work is revolutionary. thanx for enlightening humanity. the cooking channel is putting this into action. amazing team. important work.
I always look forward to your videos and learn a lot from them. Also, what a special treat it is to have the honorable Dr. Esselstyn remind us of the importance of greens and why we can't have oil (a hard for me. I needed the reminder.)
Love Doctor Esselstyn’s information. Should continue having him.❤
I made shredded brussel sprouts last night and I added a little ginger....wonderful zing!
Wow, a few minutes here with Dr. Esselstyn has helped me so much! I have been plant-based and love love love greens with basalmic dressing. Wonderful to know what I love will help us! Thank you Jane, Ann and Dr. E!
