Can the right foods hold the key to unlocking a world of sharper vision, enhanced cognition, and optimal brain health? Food is medicine. It’s more than simply a catchy phrase; it’s an empowering statement that can change your life. You can use modern knowledge to make daily decisions on what foods to eat that can not only prevent disease, but preserve your vision and cognition as you age.
I’m excited to welcome Dr. William Li as our guest on the show today. Dr. Li is an internationally renowned physician and scientist whose research has laid the foundation for over forty new medical treatments and impact care for over seventy diseases. He’s here to talk about his latest book, Eat to Beat Your Diet: Burn Fat, Heal Your Metabolism, and Live Longer: amzn.to/3TkT2rh
When it comes to visual and cognitive decline, research shows that they’re usually tied to the same common causes. That’s why it’s possible to use nutrition as an effective and powerful prevention tool. Listen in as Dr. Li shares how to eat to beat vision loss and cognitive decline with foods that you can begin integrating into your diet today.

3. Broccoli 🥦
Thank you!
Bless you🙏🏾
B&B!😊
Thank you! 😂
Thank You🙏🙏💯
There are always negative comments and skeptics but let me say this….. I followed Dr. Lis advice and eat 1-3 kiwi fruit a day, cut out sugar totally along with flour. This wasn’t the goal but I am now free of arthritis! ! ! Wholesome foods play a big part on your wellness.
I'm 81 year old I don't wear eye glasses
Wearing glasses in the genes too on my mom’s family side nobody wearing glasses even her mom remembering she was a nurse died on her late nineties never wear glasses my mom aunties uncles me too 🇵🇭🇺🇸
Amazing-what is your secret, please share.@@anitasodawalla1761
Educated Practical reasoning, balanced diet, proper proportion, and exercise = Healthy mind, body, spirit..........
Interesting
The foods mentioned are what I like, and we buy them, but the NUTRITIONAL value is an eye opener. like many I have a negative reaction to pepperoni and omega 6 foods from some meats. Omega 3 is found in fish but you need to do your homework and check for wild caught! At 83 I am In good Shape and NOT on meds!
My Dr. told me to drink more water, my lipids profile is great, blood pressure is good and not mentioned is your need for exercise to make the body healthy!
At 83, I'm STILL learning and Dr. Li is VERY interesting!
The word DOCTOR means? There are drs. of Medicine, MD, of philosophy PH, a Dr. In mechanical engineering. So what does Dr. Mean? The word "DOCTOR" means TEACHER, and Dr William Li is one of the best, and I get a FRONT ROW seat at ALL his lectures! 😊
Amen
Excellent video. Thank you, gentlemen.
Mentioned:
Watercress, Kale, Broccoli, Red Bell Pepper, Persimmons, Tomatoes, Carrots
Why? Watch the video
Study: 1 cup of Organic Strawberries daily for 6 weeks = ___________ __________ benefits. Watch the video.
Include:
Grand Slammer Foods =
health improvements
- Teas (watch video for types) - sugar free, milk free
- Berries (all); (fresh or frozen)
- Brassica (all)
Avoid = Cut down or Cut out:
- Diet and Regular Sodas
- Ultra Processed foods (example: Chips)
- Ultra Processed Meats (examples: bologna, salami, pepperoni)
Okay, I'm already there. Now I need three more to cut and three more to add.
Thanks for the summary.
Or buy rain boots😂
He's right but just be careful about one thing, you can actually overdo the brassicas. I was strict vegan doing broccoli, cauliflower, kale, cabbage, brussle sprouts, etc. to the point where I got slowed down thyroid (first sign is cold hands) and actually felt fatigued despite strong exercise program and no junk food. I swapped out some of the brassica and made sure to include dark leafies like steamed parsley or arugula (Ultimate concentrated mineral source is seaweed) and got better. Make sure and include carrots and other non-green colors and you'll be in good shape (conversely you can treat anxiety/hyperactivity with deep greens, garlic a nervous system relaxant too it will lower blood pressure.
You're an angel :)
The fact that we get free medical videos from Jim on TH-cam is priceless ... Keeping education and knowledge alive. 🙏
It is not all so altruistic. The material, the videos posted by Jim Kwik are HIS BUSINESS, and they are also structured to promote himself.
Bingo!!! It's all over the Internet what the super foods are. Too many people want the magic pill!
I looked at the transcript, and the 3 foods are:
1) Tea (Green, black, oolong, puer, etc...)
2) Berries (all of them) ok if frozen
3), Brassica. (Vegetables.) (Bok choy, green leafy, califlower, broccoli., Etc...)
So...TBB for short.
The transcripts are helpful, I think.
Forget where, the claim was earl grey tea came out #1, then green tea.
👍
❤ YOU ARE MARVELOUS ❤
Thank you for your time ❤❤
He left out nuts, ginger, fruits, greens ( spinach), turmeric , garlic etc. may be another video!😊
I just had an eye exam where they photographed my inner eye and the doctor told me my eyes looked perfect! I was shocked because two years before another eye doctor told me I had stage 1 cataracts... but now there was no evidence of it. The only thing I have done in the past 2 years is eat organic food, probably 90%. I take trace minerals, vit D3/K2, and a thyroid/adrenal supplement, all food based supplements.
Can you share the supplement you taking for thyroids? Thank you.
I am an octogenarian, and I also had a beginning of cataracts. In the last years I have been improving my metabolism with all the latest theories on nutrition, and I now feel that I am free from cataracts. I have also read that cataracts can be reversed. Our learning about nutrition is very empowering.
What lovely news. Do you want to share your supplements with us? It would be really appreciated 😊
The retina(inner eye) and cataracts are 2 different things, but keep up the good work with the supplements.
Remember to take your B12!
Dr Li is thorough and a teacher to trust he does his research. Jim Kwik did what seemed to be impossible: He found out how to learn self-taught. He persisted and finally shared his successes in college to learning troubled students. Persistent study and research opened new brain paths around damaged areas in his brain. He is a genius! 😁. Get his work and learn...
Last century there was a study showing that vision loss was easier to live with than loss of hearing in those who experienced one of them. In anticipation, vision loss was more feared, but the reality was that people suffered from more isolation without hearing.
Dr Li and Jim,
Your wisdom and guidance have been invaluable to me, and I am deeply grateful for the knowledge you've shared. Your teachings are truly a precious gift that I will treasure and continue to learn from. Thank you for your commitment . Your impact on my life is immeasurable, and I am forever indebted to your kindness.
Please keep it up!
Thank you! Now I come to realize why I don't get sick easily, as a senior, as those 3 foods that you mentioned are my daily foods, my protein is hard boiled egg, and I also believe in alternative medicine. Revelation 22:2 - "x x x The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations."
Your work on restoring vision with food is amazing as it is capable of changing the trajectory of several blind person across the world. Continue the good work.
Yay! I get to eat more strawberries and blueberries and greens
I appreciate all your hard work. Thank you so much.
Me too!!!!
😋 yum...no argh face here☺️. 😝nope❤️
I love this doctor! Explains so well. Very clear. Thank younso much for all the info
41:21 My parents, who were immigrants from China, cooked dishes with a lot of fresh vegetables with minimal amount of meat. We hardly used canned vegetables. As I got older, I realized their diet was so much healthier by eating whole foods. I enjoyed listening and learning how simple changes in food choices can improve my health in the long run.
You are correct!! Asian diets only flaw is high sodium and high msg. If removed it would be the best diet. 😊 Chinese food tastes delicious...oyster sauce, soy sauce etc. They are killers.
Thank you Dr Li & Jim for this valuable concise straight to the point easy to understand. ❤❤❤
Wonderful podcast! I really appreciate how Dr. Li pointed out the connection between the eyes and the brain. Thank you Jim Kwik and Dr. Li!
This is kind of silly because the eyes are a part of your brain so, that should be a given 🤭
I have been fasting this week. No breakfast or lunch Monday to Thursday. Breakfast and evening meal Friday to Sunday and i have lost 4 lbs. Drink plenty of water with a splash of fruit juice and i havent felt hungry or had any cravings. It may not work for everyone but it works for me. I have both of Dr Li’s books and have been vegetarian for over 30 years and vegan for 4. But i havent been as active as i was 30 years ago so for 30 years i have gained weight. It has been a nightmare to get off. Diets dont work but following a lot of what Dr Li says has really helped. I was always thin until i reached 30. Then it just went down hill. My biggest issue was portion sizes. Always eat healthily but far too much at each sitting so fasting has helped me get back on track. Just try some of what Dr Li says he does make sense by making sure you understand the benefits of food and what they do for you. The right foods and the right quantities.
Fruit juice has sugar in it, it'll break your fast. Add hymalayan sea salt instead
And good job!
Thanks for this. I've eaten healthily for years also, but the last several months have had to rely on yogurt, berries, and Trader Joe's pre-made salads-due to being away from home 11 hours, 5 days per week driving a school bus. I GAINED WEIGHT! How is that? Has to be the lack of exercise. Now I know what to focus on.
It’s always wonderful for me to listen to those experts who are so excited and speak with joy about their subject! Thank you Dr. Li!
I love this episode. Thanks Jim and Thanks Dr Li
Amazing work here. I am honored to have this information. Thank you Jim Kwik once again.
Thanks to you Jim Kwik and Dr Li...brilliantly simple, straightforward...I've bought the book ... now to read it...and because of this program, I've got a clear vision of 3 categories of what to eat and what to avoid even before I get into the more detailled "stuff" in Dr Li's book.
Cheers from Australia😀
He healed his own mother from cancer
How did he do that. Is there a video where he talks about. Amazing how eating good can heal!
I love this wonderful doctor and he should teach doctors to be and the world would be a healthy place to live. Dr Li, thank you so very much for all of your God given knowledge! You are so appreciated and your very caring spirit.
He can teach all the doctors he likes but pharma and medical insurance are and always will be in control.
After 33 minutes, you FINALLY got to the point! Finally, to topic. 4 of 41 minutes to topic.
Ungrateful. Rude a nd valueless response whereas a simple thank you Drs would suffice
Top of the line free contribution to our health, quality of life and longevity. Try to find a school that teaches class.
Ya, grrrr....
Dr. William would make a great politician.
This person is the schoolmate who just wants the answer without wanting to understand the why or how... but only the what. These people will never learn!
You need the high definition not the thumb nail view to fully understand!
Thank You ❤
I have been following Dr Li for a while now,I listen to one episode over and over I'm up there in age and use your recommendations as a health guide blessings to you and shalom❤
Excellent information!!! The only thing I would like to add is if somehow you could make your books Jim Kwik and all of your learning methods more affordable for the less fortunate. People who need this information most are the lower socioeconomic group.
Good to hear tea is good for you as I've heard mixed opinions, thank you for sharing, appreciated
❤🎉 I absolutely love Dr. Li and his work!!! So empowering - he is so passionate about food as medicine and he is changing the world with his work!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Thankyou, Jim.
This was wonderful information! So glad I tuned in!
Thank you sooo much!
Great info ! I have known for years that food is medicine! I am so happy to hear this from Dr. Li and to better understand the how and why of it all 😂❤❤❤😊😊😊
Thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks for sharing. All knowledge I have learned as getting my PhD at 62, but love that the foods are listed and discussed with such helpful information.
Dr. Li is my favorite doctor bar none! So much useful, easy to understand information about health and healing.
We all have choices and the most important thing is to develop healthy habits. Thank you for the suggestions!
There is nothing wrong with my brain yet , but my eyes need support. Thank you.Dr Li.👀👀💖
Add raw preferably organic Carrots.
@@ArifAli-hg1eq Yes I consume it.🙂
@@albertnetoth-xn6of wear glasses like him
@@billhamilton7524 WHO Is HE??
@@albertnetoth-xn6of you mean him haha ,,the guy {doctor} in video wearing glasses
Thank you so much. Enjoyed listening to your Jim Kwik audio with Dr Li on vision/brain nutrition. Always major nutritional information helping us to improve our lives.
Thanks soooo much. Have followed you true healers for a long time👏❤️
Lots of useful information! God bless TY
At around 58 yrs if age, I had LASIK surgery on left and right eyes here in the Philippines. Minutes later I had 20/20 vision! ❤
It was the most amazing eye test! ❤❤❤😻😍🤩
I had to do it because of scuba diving
I was farsighted with astigmatism.
I also had Lasix in California for SCUBA diving. Cost $5000 on both eyes for presbyopia. It lasted about 6 months. The doc did Lasix again after 2 years. It still didn't last. Perhaps I should go to your doc.
Did you not let it heal properly
Maybe you have cataracts??
Thanks for sharing
Thank you Dr Li,I have learnt so much from you and some other remarkable Doctors who have given podcasts or featured on podcasts and I am on my way to recovery.
Thank you!!
This is an amazing opportunity to learn from a medical professional for free! I’ll take it
This is amazing! I got the latest book Dr Li published, excellent!!! Thank you for sharing Jim
Thank you both
Awesome information and explanations! I knew most of this but I needed to hear Dr. Li say out loud how bad (soda, chips, processed foods) and how good (tea, berries, all types of greens) these foods are for vision and brain health. I appreciate this video 🙏❤️🙏
This is great information. I am 66 with presbyopia. I am going to try increasing greens, berries and tea.
Thank you🎉
I am on a journey of better health. Dr. Li is very helpful and easily understandable. Thank you!
Thanks!
Woooow I am loving this topic so much!! I lost my vision suddenly for 4 yrs now I had a surgery, I can now see clearly so THIS TEACHING will help me maintain the clarity of my eyes. Thank you to you both doctors for taking your time to explain this secret to us👏👏✅✅
Great show,
Thank you,
Thank you so very much Dr Li for sharing your knowledge ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yay! Two of my favorite minds 😆🙏
Thanks for this great interview that focused on what seems to be a lesser emphasis--our vision. I recently learned that those 8-12 glasses of water a day we should drink every day are also vital to vision.
8-12 glasses of water. I always have trouble with that. I don't like drinking water, you are right, it's necessary. But 8 glasses! 😢
@@yuyito1326It would help to be 8 glasses thirsty. Sigh. Drink anyway.
@@yuyito1326 I do green tea and black so it's helped
Thanks for sharing. GOD bless.
Thank you Doctors
There are more worse eye problems than needing glasses (i.e. macular degeneration). Wish wearing glasses to correct my vision would be the least of my problems 😮
Amen!
Many thanks to you both, I am currently taking Areds I can’t believe I can see this keyboard on my iPad all of the letters. 69 year old female . 😮 much love, stay well.❤❤❤
Were do you buy your Areds?
Thanks so much for your advice.
Thank you!
As a person with age related macular degeneration a local Opthamologist put me on AREDS 2 because occasionally I saw a shadow on ceiling that would go away before I could get out of bed. It’s been about 3 months now and never have that symptom. I have worn glasses since grade school and still do. That should help you understand why he still wears glasses. Glasses are no help for macular degeneration. The Macula of the eye needs that med, over the counter from Wal*Mart and is made by Bausch and Lomb. Glasses are to focus light on retina. So it is macular for Areds2 and glasses for retina.
Glasses for the lens
Thanks I'm?a cancer fighter I think that will help me
I wonder why people make negative comments when this guy clearly has studied all this information I mean do you really need the attention that bad
Ìts ĺight relief if you are struggling like most of us are they are supper bright doctors and specialists , we are so so lucky to be able to try to help ourselves now with the internett and get this shared info thank god and people who use the hipocratuc oath as a real thing not as a money maker! We are truly blessed
Have his book. Love listening to his knowledge.
Thank you very much for your information 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I had a mini stroke that affected my left eye for 3 months. I've been afraid going forward about the blood vessels erupting again. I never knew there were supplements that I could take to strengthen my eyes. We all learned abouts carrorts, of course. I trust his advice.
Great episode-it just dawned on me that our blood vessels perform the same functions as mycelium networks perform for nature-moving oxygen, nutrients, sending stress signals etc
Thank u Dr. Kwik and Dr. Li really you both bring a wealth of info for seniors like myself to benefit from. God bless you both for your charity
Thanks so much
Thank you very much for this interesting content: l wonder what s about drinking wine?! Mediterran - Habit - healthy on a Daily Basis ? Thank you in advance for your answer!🌼
Thank all for the positive comments. I was about to give up half way through and no actual suggested foods
Brothe
kindly go back and read the Holy Bible
It tells you what to eat and not what to eat
I have been following Dr Li for the past 2 years. For some reason I see him looking a lot younger.
Great information🎉🎉. Thank you. God bless you.
I had 50mg Zinc a day during covid and my cataracts have disappeared.
Great stuff. Liked and Subscribed (ALL)
Thank you
Thank you so much this is very informative and necessary information for our current nutritional and health conscious knowledge
Can you get to the point about the foods we need to add to our diet???????? Thank you!😮
Can you forward or just Google it or just relax?
A healthy diet can also help you overcome a very short attention span.
Great info! Thanks!
Thank you for interesting information.
Super foods: broccoli, blueberries, amla powder (india gooseberries), hemp hearts , tumeric, matcha tea,
Beans (black , garbonzo, kidney), kiwi. Love cole slaw nd broccoli slaw mix with shreadded carrots. And zuchinni and yellow squash with onions. Favorite meal on the go, banana and almonds. Sugar substitute Lakunta classic Monkefruit and allulose. Fast meal sweet potato wash, stab with fork, cook 5 minutes each side in microwave add salt, pepper and butter. Ezekiel bread or sourdough. Best snack white button mushrooms wash, remove stems, fill with cream cheese and bake in oven until really hot and darken a little. Best fermented foods that i will actually eat greek yogurt, dill pickles, Lindsay black olives, sourdough bread. Fish: salmon, starkist albacore tuna, Snows minced clams wild caught. Best omega 3's: walnuts in chicken (canned chicken breast) and tuna salad, hemp hearts, flax seed fresh ground, chia seeds soaked. Tuna patties, salmon patties and homemade bread with almond flour. Love egg salad. Love creamy potato leek soup with minced clams. Worst cheat: love mexican three kind shreadded cheese and Lipton iced tea. Nobody's perfect. Also 1 pound of hamburger each month, oil well drained for tacos or burgers. Not a diet. A lifestyle change. Healthy seeds and nuts (in moderation), spices and herbs. My processed food cheats Angelos Eggplant Parmesan and Barber Cordon Blue chicken. Extra Virgin Olive Oil and alvacado oil or alvacado.
Ditch the microwave pronto! We settled on a countertop convection oven to replace it. Microwave ovens make food unrecognizable to the body. They also leak the EMF energy, very harmful stuff.
Thank you so much Judy ❤ I appreciate your complete list ….
Thanks for sharing
.
Awesome!!! However...not good to put sweet potatoes, incredible sweet potatoe,under any circumstances, do not pit on microwave oven! Convection oven much much better and just as fast!!!
Microwave bad, alters food, body doesn't recognize and raises cholesterol trying to fight unknown food. Microwave nothing, not even water.
Can you now please get to the foods. Am halfway into the episode, and still, you haven't mentioned even one!
Exactly
@trizz358 start watching from minutes 21:06

I have been growing elderberry and putting it in Mason jars after I clean the plat from the leaves and such, I take about2 tablespoon s with natural honey and mix a table spoon of honey mixed with my dry elderberry s mix and eat this daily. I take a capsule of turmeric most every day I'm in my 50s and have had to wear prescription glasses for 9 years. I noticed that my eye site has improved so much that I don't need my glasses now. I am so surprised and happy. The only other thing I eat weekly is 3 can s of sardines and several cloves of garlic. I'm not sure but really believe its the elderberry and honey helping me with my eyes😁🦄🐕
If you store the elderberries in a vacuumed container will keep fresh much longer. You can find ways to do on internet.
I love to learn anything that is about the human body and our health, and knowing about internally and more 👍🏻 thank you Dr. Li and Jim for sharing so much valuable information 💋🥰❤️🙏
This doctor was excellent! Thank you for the great interview.
