    Hi Dr. Gundry,
    I'm very impressed by the amount of information you neatly packed into this short amount of time.
    Thank you for spreading good healthy values for us after your diligent, diligent research.
    As a Japanese my self living in Japan, I do feel the terms you introduced are something to look up to.
    It's kind of a "good old day" thing nowadays, and it's kinda hard to walk the path unless you're willing to.
    There are number of reasons I eat sweet potatoes as a snack rather than on the table.
    1. It's hard to differentiate non-organic and organic sweet potatoes.
    2. It's a bit sweet so blood rushes, making control hard for the body, and has less silica compared to normal potatoes.
    3. The outer peel gives gas. (so I can't eat the peel)
    A feed back as a guy who uses his body a lot, black rice which I regularly eat, gives exceptional amount of energy compared to other color rices.
    It might be phosphorous content, though the amount of energy definitely correlates to the darkness of color.
    Also a farmer told me about a professional sumo wrestler who only eats black rice, not other rices.
    Black rice in general is a luxury in Japan and is called "ancient rice".
    Usually it's only used in small quantities mixed with white rice which is a blood rusher.
    Anyway, great video! Hope for the best. Very encouraged by your videos always. Thank you.

    Good video. Yes, community is important. I lived on the mainland of Japan and now live in Okinawa. A good portion of rice though is served with lunch at public schools and in the commonly eaten lunch boxes that are bought at the convenience store/supermarket.
    I think they eat a little rice for breakast and dinner too at home. Although some say they don't
    eat carbs for dinner.
    Soybeans are also often mixed in with the
    lunch. But yes we often have miso soup too.

    It is pronounced ikigai (I-KI-GAI). Hello, Dr. Gundry. Yes, the Japanese live much longer. Thanks to their healthy lifestyle and excellent health care system. Yet, this is now a problem Japan is facing. According to the Japan Times, "A surge in elderly people presents problems for the country, affecting health care system improvements and efforts to reverse low birth rates and sustain regional communities." Yet, I agree with you. We can learn a lot from Japan. As you said, walking 2 miles every day once or twice a day is great. I always enjoy your health talks and keep your advice in mind and action. Kudos to you, Doc.

    very interesting points on Okinawan longevity. However, the fact that they move to Hawaii/US and their life expectancy lowers, could be the change in diet OR the air/water pollution OR stress (due to the ultra competitive American lifestyle). Many immigrants try to maintain their traditional diets when relocating - so it could be the lower quality of the food within the same type of diet. And last, but not least, after relocating they lack the social and family connection they had back home - so there could be many factors for which the life expectancy decreases....

      For all of us that can remember this far back, the "ultra competitive American lifestyle" is a direct result of American companies studying the Japanese way of industrialization, back in the 70's, if I remember correctly. Actually, American society began falling apart since the late 60's and early 70's. ☹️

    Thank you, Dr. Gundry, for the great info!
    I think the hot lunch system in public schools in Japan has been playing a really big role in keeping Japanese healthy at a really young age as well.
    Nutritionists are there in every school to make recipes for kids and serve a really nice hot meal everyday. We looked forward to the lunch time!
    All Japanese grew up eating well balanced meals at least once a day, and it only cost $30 per month/child.
    I think this system started more than a hundred years ago and that's a great investment by the government because they won't end up spending millions later in healthcare😊

    It's really interesting how demonized the idea of work being good and taking pride in your job has become in the US. So many Americans think work is such a horrible thing. What in the heck are you going to do with 14+ waking hours a day every day? Watch TV and scroll Facebook? Travel? If you are rich and you can afford to travel constantly then maybe that is worthwhile - I don't know. I really don't understand people's obsession with traveling? They are so discontent with themselves and their life that they need this constant escape. Getting to the airport 2 hours before my flight and going through security is not my idea of fun.
