@@dabblerdeluxe775 no no no no. You simply cannot reach a ketogenic state with that many carbs. The loss in weight is only caused by the caloric deficiency.
geigster this is something i wanted to test out with ketostix or a blood glucose monitor,I mean carbs turn into glucose then are stored in muscles/liver so shouldn't a caloric deficiency force the body to metabolize that first?
In order to really do this property, you heed to cut out caffeine and sugar and potentially alcohol two weeks prior to the challenge, it’s the addiction that’s making you feel like shit, your headaches and exhaustion not only are signs of not enough food, but also detoxing.

Potential solution: give refugees the almost expired food from supermarkets or extra food from restaurants...we just need an organization to organize this
Almost expired food is not expired food and therefore can still be sold. Unfortunately any food that was almost expired enough to not be sold but sent to the refugees would likey not make the trip and be distributed before it expires.
You guys are missing the point. You can never feel or experience what refugees go through unless you are also one of them. When you don't have any food to eat, even the worst food in the world feels like a dish from a Michelin star restaurant.

One of the spiritual connection one can get with the unfortunates is by fasting. Thats why during ramadhan muslims fast to get close to the less fortunate while partake in the spiritual experience
The same with being Catholic. We do a lot of fasting, too. That is to go without food day and night and only drink water. It makes you feel what those who have nothing go through. It's humbling, for sure.
This is why Allah wants Muslims to fast during ramadan so we can appreciate what we have and feel compassion for others and understand what they go through
The iron III complexes from any plant based source are absorbed 20 times less, meaning, you´d need 2.000% of your daily iron value if you plan to get it from plant sources only.
Another issue is he wasn't getting and fruits or fresh veggies in to absorb the iron. Iron needs vitamin c to absorb, otherwise you just pissing and pooping it away.
@@AyanaSioux You're actually just wrong. Iron can be in different ion states, theses states behave differently in terms of solubility. So iron 3 complexes will be absorbed less quickly as they won't be able to enter the blood stream as effectively.
3 years ago I was in a hostel in Athens, the was a young man who was always in the common areas. One day while I wAs making my pasta, he stated chatting with me, he help me arrange my letter Very carefully & neatly, usually guys never Get into arranging food neatly . Finally I asked Where he was from, he answered " Syria " I finally understand Why he was always around instead of going outside sightseeing. I Shared my meal with him. I hope he found help & his relatives some Where by now . . . I don't normaly need to Have 3 meals a day by choice & I try not to waste food , but I understand the feeling of not having enough food to fuel the body to function properly . . .
Wow Its reminds me of how I ate growing up in a third world country .I eat two cups of rice and I piece of fish everyday.I go to school I cant concentrate and I feel nauseous all the time.I also have poot visions.I feel sad to all the refugees and what they been through...
That's a perfectly ok diet. Flour and rice for a few viatmens and to bulk it up. Lentils are high in protein, and combined with the other food it seems pretty good. It seemed like you had withdrawal symptoms. These refugees eat fine. probably not enough food for active people however
Honestly that ration looks good. People in Syria actually know how to cook lentils, kidney beans, and chickpeas. They eat it with rice. It’s delicious and it just depends on wether you can cook or not.
Knowing how to cook good won't increase their needed calories for survival. In a point u said about knowing how to cook, anaemia can be easily prevented in cooking in iron or steel utensils but that doesn't hide the fact in couple of months or years they might die from starvation or heart failures because of their incomplete diet.
This is a really complicated issue, after spending a week in Paris it has changed my mind about letting in refugees. Refugees have turned this once great city into a bathroom. If you've been to Paris, you'll know what I'm talking about.
Hi, woud you prefer for all those people to just die? I don't understand. Stop creating fictional problems and focus on the real ones, Paris is fine, atleast refugees haven't done shit to make it worse. Maybe you shud shift the problem on those who don't let people have a normal livinghood in exange for wealth
Idk why in the comments people are saying that the refugees shouldn't be complaining and be grateful when infact in the entire video no refugee complained. It was the guy sharing his own opinions n experience. If they showed what the refugees said i m sure they wouldve been really thankful. Idk y all the negativity when the message was infact positive *shrugs*
Love the deflection. If terrible things are happening to people you don't like you can always shriek "Ignore them! We need to do something about people who are more like ME!" Of course, you won'd actually do shit about the problem you claim to care about. It's just a way of getting people to ignore the plight of people you hate.
@@HiAdrian Aww. When will the world ever be fair to the poor persecuted white man? The most exploited group around. For a group of people that are generally more well off than almost every group on earth there's a percentage of white men that really really like playing the victim.
Im swiss and starting next week ill be teaching a syrian refugee german (im swiss german). He already managed to get to about a C1 level by himself, but in order to truly get around he needs to practice normal conversations and writing. Getting that much experience with a regular teacher would cost a ton, so ill do it for free. I want to maybe become a high school teacher or a university teacher, so its also a great exercise for me, because i have to work at a supermarket part time (im a student) and cannot work in a job that would be closer to what i want to do later on (because such jobs like helping students with homework are cool jobs, but are a very instable income). Also i just think its the right thing to do Im writing this because i hope to inspire someone else to maybe help someone or somethig. Whether that is helping out at your local animal rescue, talking to elderly people and listening to them and make them feel less lonely or just basic kindness to strangers. Everyone can do something for someone, even if its small. Sometimes the smallest gestures can make the biggest impact.
Woah a privileged guy used to eating fancy food doesnt like what 90% of the world eats like. Crazy. Let's be real. This is way better than what they had going for them before.
I dont believe he ever said that it tasted bad, its just the radical change in diet and lack of sugars caused his brain to crash because it wasn't getting its normal(high) amounts of sugar and gut issues because he might have not had properly fully cooked the beans. (raw uncooked beans is a common cause for gut issues)
Quit hating on this video. The fact that a large platform brings attention to the refugee crisis abroad is a great thing. Stop trying pick at the fact that in western society people are seen as affluent and opulent. Tell me how you are bettering this situation by doing so. This crisis is already a major issue, according the UNHRC (The United Nations Human Rights Council) there are 40 million internationally displaced people and 25.4 million refugees. So why don't bring positive attention to videos like these to bring more awareness and aid.
mate, there are a lot of people don't even have enough food to eat on earth. And we are already kind enough to offer free food to them. what else you expect.
I worked in the kitchen of a refugee facility for almost two years. My experience is that many people were ungrateful that what we gave them to eat. It was even better than what I personally prepared. Somehow I feel lied to and betrayed. The refugees always wanted something grilled, but completely forgot that it was a refugee home and not a hotel. The food was always fresh. I don't understand...
Wow this is happening to me right now due to some circumstances im quite having a hard life having to ration my food. Its really hard what he describe about less polite, headache and sometime i get angry immediately im experiencing all of it. Im still struggling as of today luckily i still have some internet connection and electricity so im holding out. Those people who are suffering like me dont lose hope we might be able to comeback in this life :).
Nutrition fact: Plant-based iron source, like the kidney beans and lentils in the kit, provides iron, but is not absorbed as well as animal sourced heme iron. The amount of iron from these beans is also not sufficient judging from the amount he eats every day. These iron can be better absorbed if vitamin-C rich foods are in the meal, but they won't be very sufficient in these rations.
Honestly, it is better to have something to eat rather than nothing at all. I think a good way to improve the diet is to offer more lentils or beans since they have a ton of protein. Maybe soy as an example. At the end of the day though its hard to feed everyone and the fact that there is a program at all shows something about the world.
I use to be refugee in my brith place in aisa but I never felt unhappy, it was the best memories, I had great life, friends, ebpven my neighbor they always use to cook friend rice in the moring and they always call me in the moring because they knew fried rice was my fav with chai. My friend mom use to own a restaurant so we use to go there eat alot food after school, my life was great but sadly I had to come to USA. I still miss those food,
This video relieve my trauma of being starved everyday and cant eat anything. Now i am living in city and i swear i am working so hard for getting big income and still eating cheap but nutrition. I studied finance economy and business and that's not enough. Refugees are at least getting food, but i used live in commies when i was kid for one year less, all work labor hard and not getting food, and it's traumatized me enough to be scraping every opportunities i had and spending less what i see worthless.
Sometimes, I lose hope for mankind. We have far and beyond enough resources to feed every person everyday with balanced and fulfilling meals. However, we, in the privileged parts of world, do the most hoarding and wasting of vital resources that we could easily share with the general populous. We are so cruel to each other.
Iron deficiency is the most common deficiency BECUASE OF MENSTRUATION. Women lose a LOT of iron through menstruation, which is why so many people confuse anemia and iron deficiency.
did u even watch the video? 50% of all refugees are children. 50% of those children have, or have had anemia. how many of those kids are menstruating??? none.
nor mie this is why sex ed is important. Maybe watch the video again, because you aren't even quoting what was said in the video, but a misinterpretation of what was said. To make it easier, they said "...affecting around 50% of people (globally)" which includes them first world nourished folk. Alas, you've probably never had to deal with either menstruation nor anemia... Anemia is not fun, especially when its transfusion level bad. I think this probably isn't worth going any deeper on, the amount of education I'd have to do to bring you out of remedial level is quite sad, please, just go back to school.
I've eaten food that Jewish people eat and I felt a little good. The food had no salt, but, I delt with it, plus, I had to eat a loaf of bread in three days with unsalted sticky bread and vegetables, I got full for several hours a day. I went through Anemia.
What baffels me is the fact that iron deficiency is such an incredibly large issue, oats and cream of wheat/porridge is such a cheap and high iron/fibre option that has a very long shelf life, why aren't more foods like it being provided?
way to count on the EU giving out food rations with no salt. One of the most vital minerals. They take in all these refugees w/o any preparation or plan.
You should go to the Nepal where Bhutanese refugees live in refugee camp. They get 2 kgs of rice for a week. You’ll realize the real refugee life there. Not like this one with burgers and enough food
Honestly looks like plenty of food to me. I've been eating less than that for 3-4 months right now and it's not like I can't afford more food, I can, I just don't need anymore food. Especially if this is the same amount theyre giving to a child.
I unfortunately enough to work with Norwegian Refugee Council helping with the community in Bekaa Valley in Lebanon and in Zaatari Camp in Jordan so saying this video is really compelling.
placebo, and the fact your switching your diet dramatically, would be the reason behind mood changes. A lot of people eat very very similarly to this anyway (students, some athletes).
ankit tiwari it’s literally artwork doesn’t mean u have to agree with the context or person in artwork you know how Fidel Castro is on stenciled design on shirts and many things that been very popular and many people wear it doesn’t mean people have to necessarily agree with it
Bro from that i can makeout you are a chaiwala(current pm of our country india) bhakt. Always finding yourself superior and right over others and fake nationalistic aura you creat over yourself. Wake up fakenews shop. Or else someone has to rise again to make you see the truth.
Besides the detox comments (that I agree with from experience) some of those foods had enough protein and iron - you didn't have enough of it indeed but probably not by those estimates micro nutrients wise.
Lesson learned, We should count our Blessings... We tend to complain and whine about our food at the table but How about this people in this situation...
Besides having a shit ton of caffeine in my diet this is my cheap college diet. I do agree with the meh feeling it gives you. Interesting seeing this video now. Rice for every meal, oil added for calories, some dry beans every now and then, dry oatmeal, peanut butter, tuna, cheap frozen spring mix, black coffee. I definitely realized that even if you get more than enough calories you need to start eating more "real" meats and veggies or you really start to feel bad. Sugar was an n/a though as I had previously tried to cut it out. But yeah having bland for for every meal can be tough on you.
I've had Anemia for a while and it is really hard to function with it. I wasn't able to stay awake for long and I was fainting so much, I can't imagine having it in a place where I was not able to get treatment.
...that’s how I eat all the time because I’m broke...though I also have meat once or twice a month, and I drink lots of chai with milk and a little bit of sugar, and some salt in my rice. Other than that, I eat beans, lentils, and rice. My main iron intake is from my monthly meal with some meat and a cast iron pan. It’s hard to imagine an even worse diet, and my soul hurts for those who have to live off worse food.
We throw away so much fresh veggies and fruits and these people have to eat like this? The war needs to end as quickly as possible. There is no point in dragging out their suffering.
Be grateful you’re getting free food as a refugee and not dying on streets out of hunger. Being a refugee isn’t your recognition to public benefits. You are on mercy and out of choices. So stop complaining. Atleast you’re getting something from a country that owes you nothing but giving you shelter. Better start working and earn your bread.
So you chose to eat like a middle class person that makes too much money to get assistance yet barely makes enough to survive... how was the traumatic experience?
Honestly why can't we pay for a garden in these camps and perhaps a chicken coop and lamb stalls. It's sold sustaining. And there are plenty of people to maintain it.
Could be worse. They could be litterally starving to death. Also true story. Lost my room mates a couple years back and kept myself fed on about 25 $ a month until I found a new one. Nothing but potatoes and onions for three and a half months. You'd be amazed at what the human body can do when you're determined enough.
You were also cutting off from sugar and caffeine, that's how you feel for the first days when you don't eat them.
Exactly. The refugees are now multiple years/months/weeks without sugar and caffiene. These people are stupid
eitherway a ketogenic state is likely since a caloric deficiency would burn up the glucose relatively fast.
@@dabblerdeluxe775 no no no no. You simply cannot reach a ketogenic state with that many carbs. The loss in weight is only caused by the caloric deficiency.

definitely!
Kinda true but fresh foods can make you feel healthier
Potential solution: give refugees the almost expired food from supermarkets or extra food from restaurants...we just need an organization to organize this
yeah
Almost expired food is not expired food and therefore can still be sold. Unfortunately any food that was almost expired enough to not be sold but sent to the refugees would likey not make the trip and be distributed before it expires.
wouldn't work. liability issues
Nah, people had to be wasteful
Wont work. The food has to be package and non perishable.
If you hadn’t been eating at all, this food would be heaven.
You guys are missing the point. You can never feel or experience what refugees go through unless you are also one of them. When you don't have any food to eat, even the worst food in the world feels like a dish from a Michelin star restaurant.

Hey William! Thanks for your note! Did you watch the video all the way through?

Refugees are at least getting food, but i used live in commies when i was kid for one year less, all work labor hard and not getting food, and it's traumatized me enough to be scraping every opportunities i had and spending less what i see worthless.
I came from refugee camp and it was not bad also it all about society around you is what you gonna get used to.
"Omg i ate a bowl of rice and i felt like shit i know what its like guys"
@- TBL Productions - cool
/s
Troll lol
rice is nice
We eat that everyday three meals a Day but you eat it with dish, thats ignorant if you just eat Rice We dont do that
Basically me during college, had like 1 meal a day. Mostly dinner and sometimes snacks during break
Sometimes, I lose hope for mankind. We have far and beyond enough resources to feed every person everyday with balanced and fulfilling meals. However, we, in the privileged parts of world, do the most hoarding and wasting of vital resources that we could easily share with the general populous. We are so cruel to each other.
Iron deficiency is the most common deficiency BECUASE OF MENSTRUATION.
Women lose a LOT of iron through menstruation, which is why so many people confuse anemia and iron deficiency.
did u even watch the video? 50% of all refugees are children. 50% of those children have, or have had anemia. how many of those kids are menstruating??? none.
nor mie this is why sex ed is important. Maybe watch the video again, because you aren't even quoting what was said in the video, but a misinterpretation of what was said.
To make it easier, they said "...affecting around 50% of people (globally)" which includes them first world nourished folk.
Alas, you've probably never had to deal with either menstruation nor anemia... Anemia is not fun, especially when its transfusion level bad.
I think this probably isn't worth going any deeper on, the amount of education I'd have to do to bring you out of remedial level is quite sad, please, just go back to school.
I've eaten food that Jewish people eat and I felt a little good. The food had no salt, but, I delt with it, plus, I had to eat a loaf of bread in three days with unsalted sticky bread and vegetables, I got full for several hours a day. I went through Anemia.
He was filming himself looking away, not talking and being sad. A lot.
What baffels me is the fact that iron deficiency is such an incredibly large issue, oats and cream of wheat/porridge is such a cheap and high iron/fibre option that has a very long shelf life, why aren't more foods like it being provided?
Free food. More than I get
Wish I got free food
🎶Yeah you DON'T! HAVE! To EAT LIKE A REFUGEE!!!🎶
Your diet is literally how most asian eat, rice with small amount of side dish for taste
Not every Asian is poor
@@hmmtn4501 well, that's how i eat in indonesia
way to count on the EU giving out food rations with no salt. One of the most vital minerals. They take in all these refugees w/o any preparation or plan.
You should go to the Nepal where Bhutanese refugees live in refugee camp. They get 2 kgs of rice for a week. You’ll realize the real refugee life there. Not like this one with burgers and enough food
@Johnston Steiner when you are eating only rice its 1 kg for one person for one day, here we usually eat 2-3 bag of 50 kg rice for the family of 5
@Johnston Steiner trust me I can eat 600 gram in on plate, I don't think you are mouse that would last for a week
Honestly looks like plenty of food to me. I've been eating less than that for 3-4 months right now and it's not like I can't afford more food, I can, I just don't need anymore food. Especially if this is the same amount theyre giving to a child.
Rations are to help someone survive, not necessarily thrive.
Love your channel, keep up the good work!
I unfortunately enough to work with Norwegian Refugee Council helping with the community in Bekaa Valley in Lebanon and in Zaatari Camp in Jordan so saying this video is really compelling.
I remember my family saying they ate rice with water and salt.
so porridge?
I love finding channels like this!!!
placebo, and the fact your switching your diet dramatically, would be the reason behind mood changes. A lot of people eat very very similarly to this anyway (students, some athletes).
Cries about bad and low food ration but keeps communist Mao ding dong photo in his room
Lol Explains
Ha ha...Mao ding dong. LoL!
It's for a project. He doesn't worship him, he said it. Don't jump to conclusions.
ankit tiwari it’s literally artwork doesn’t mean u have to agree with the context or person in artwork you know how Fidel Castro is on stenciled design on shirts and many things that been very popular and many people wear it doesn’t mean people have to necessarily agree with it
China number 1 country aya
Bro from that i can makeout you are a chaiwala(current pm of our country india) bhakt. Always finding yourself superior and right over others and fake nationalistic aura you creat over yourself. Wake up fakenews shop. Or else someone has to rise again to make you see the truth.
Besides the detox comments (that I agree with from experience) some of those foods had enough protein and iron - you didn't have enough of it indeed but probably not by those estimates micro nutrients wise.
This food is meant for people who are starving to survive
As a RSW to be, this might be my thesis paper..
It’s disturbing how some countries treat their people like this. By that I mean the countries these refugees are running from.
I feel like adding extra rice was unfair.
Lesson learned, We should count our Blessings... We tend to complain and whine about our food at the table but How about this people in this situation...
Besides having a shit ton of caffeine in my diet this is my cheap college diet. I do agree with the meh feeling it gives you. Interesting seeing this video now. Rice for every meal, oil added for calories, some dry beans every now and then, dry oatmeal, peanut butter, tuna, cheap frozen spring mix, black coffee. I definitely realized that even if you get more than enough calories you need to start eating more "real" meats and veggies or you really start to feel bad. Sugar was an n/a though as I had previously tried to cut it out. But yeah having bland for for every meal can be tough on you.
Not to sound harsh, but it beats starving to death.
I want to go on a ration diet so i can lose weight
4:45 I love the facts that the controller wasn't even on
Well then...
I guess when you try to fake something the small details always get you
Atleast they have food. May be ration can include fresh food but its harsh reality of war
ADITYA GHOSH but partnering with local farmers will solve that problem. And its cheaper.
@@Rod.Machado who will be paying?
Thebbb the US pays more for military then anything. A cut by much less then 1% should be good enough
Where is the noodle place at the beginning of the clip?
seeing this after a whole year of g***cide in gaza is so painful, because we know they don't even have much access to food like this
5:55 woah beautiful eyes
no salt and pepper, use sand
a thing which lots of those reffugees have its salt and adds crunch
I've had Anemia for a while and it is really hard to function with it. I wasn't able to stay awake for long and I was fainting so much, I can't imagine having it in a place where I was not able to get treatment.
...that’s how I eat all the time because I’m broke...though I also have meat once or twice a month, and I drink lots of chai with milk and a little bit of sugar, and some salt in my rice. Other than that, I eat beans, lentils, and rice. My main iron intake is from my monthly meal with some meat and a cast iron pan. It’s hard to imagine an even worse diet, and my soul hurts for those who have to live off worse food.
For kids, it’s normal to have 3k-6k calories.
We throw away so much fresh veggies and fruits and these people have to eat like this? The war needs to end as quickly as possible. There is no point in dragging out their suffering.
Hopefull this crisis gets solved one day
Be grateful you’re getting free food as a refugee and not dying on streets out of hunger. Being a refugee isn’t your recognition to public benefits. You are on mercy and out of choices. So stop complaining. Atleast you’re getting something from a country that owes you nothing but giving you shelter. Better start working and earn your bread.
6:48 I thought he was going to say "If you're a refugee in a pinch, you'll probably have to eat a family pet at some point"

Almost every animal in the planet earth lived more difficult lives than 99% of humans

Privileged upper middle class person falls into a mental break down after eating like a normal person for a week
So you chose to eat like a middle class person that makes too much money to get assistance yet barely makes enough to survive... how was the traumatic experience?
Hello incel.
@@Inuitman good bait.
well people can’t live for free refugee or not that’s just life it self
Honestly why can't we pay for a garden in these camps and perhaps a chicken coop and lamb stalls. It's sold sustaining. And there are plenty of people to maintain it.
I feel bad for the poor refugees.
i love your video's ,so much information 😊
Its better than eating air. Ofc Its not a 5 Star meal, But it will make you live
Could be worse. They could be litterally starving to death. Also true story. Lost my room mates a couple years back and kept myself fed on about 25 $ a month until I found a new one. Nothing but potatoes and onions for three and a half months. You'd be amazed at what the human body can do when you're determined enough.
And Tom Petty joins in...
"No you don't have to eat like a refugee"
Don't have to eat like a refugee!
I see nothing wrong with this food? It's free and pretty nutritious, and the reactions shown in the video are typical of a radical diet change.
