Why I started including Some Heat Processed Foods: th-cam.com/video/WXLmvGeKRo8/w-d-xo.html Responding to Comments about Eating Heat Processed foods: th-cam.com/video/9OLi3NnAHO0/w-d-xo.html
Our world is so caught up with labels and putting people in boxes. If you are raw vegan, but eat cooked food on occasion, you are still eating an incredibly healthy diet. I think using our diet as a means for identity is bs. You have been an inspiration and will continue to be an inspiration to me because you are eating incredibly healthy and that's what matters. Your recipes are incredible and thank you for posting this.
I don't think people use it to identify as a way to label or box themselves in. Most if not all people use it to explain how and what they eat. It's called using language. What's wrong with that?
@@SincerelyShireen I disagree with your statement that most if not all people are simply using it to describe how they eat. I haven’t found that to be the case coming from someone that eats a 100% raw vegan diet. Many who identify as ‘raw vegan’ believe their way of eating to be a major component in who they are as a person. A perfect example of this, is the people who tried to tear down John for eating some heat processed foods and say that he isn’t a raw foodist anymore even though 95% of his caloric intake comes from raw foods.
I’d also like to add that this is most likely the reason why John feels the need to clarify so much on his eating habits. Although I value his transparency, he tends to repeat himself sometimes and it comes from feedback he’s received from people eating a raw food diet and the ways in which many view cooked foods as toxic and will tell you that you aren’t a raw foodist if you eat any cooked food at all.
I'm starting my third year plant based, kicked cigarettes and alcohol in 2019. Your videos have helped me very much, especially early on. I respect your consistency and individuality. Peace.
@@rackcity-sz4oy I listened to a TH-cam playlist of reviews of the book “The Easy Way to stop smoking” by Allen Carr, probably for 8-10 hours while working around the house. I never actually have read the book. Quitting drinking came later on by fasting, prayer and Raw diet (slowly incorporated)
Yes i agree with John. I was completely raw vegan and I started to never be satisfied even though eating way and beyond my calorie needs, tired and depressed. My health suffered. My naturopath suggested adding in cooked root vegetables to help my gut micro biome….and the results are amazing. I feel it was the different fibre and wider diversity I gained like john talks about. I’m all raw, but adding small amounts of cooked root vegetables. It also adds more enjoyment, mental thinking and social interaction. Thankyou for this video john. You are a great inspiration 😀
This makes me happy, cause I couldn’t bring myself to go back to fully raw after I became a mom. I have no problem eating raw all day, but I live in Wyoming 🥶 and I really want to have a warm cooked dinner with my husband.
Just a thought - you do not need someone else to eat a certain way for you to not feel guilty eating in a manner that is best for you! Trust your body and eat what and how makes you feel happy and healthy. Eating raw has never been scientifically proven to be healthier than a whole foods plant based diet with lots of cooked foods.
@@Laura-je2uw actually for years I tried healing my health problems with a cooked plant base diet and never saw any difference. Doctors used to have me on almost 20 meds at a time and told me I would never have kids. After 6 months of raw I was taken off all my meds, and within a year my periods were like clockwork and I got pregnant with my son. So you may be able to get the same results with extra help from a Naturopath and supplements, but if you want the fastest healing possible without supplements then Raw works wonders.
@@kathrynkij5979 i am glad that you could heal and could fullfill your dream of having kids. I hope that you can now eat a more wide range of foods without any problems. Just please do not make your choices dependent on what someone else is doing, you are your best advisor. Bless you and your family♥️
Actually, in many cases, 'cooking' increases the bio-availability of many phytochemicals.......in Greece wild greens are a staple, but it is the cooking that dramatically increases the bio-availability of the important beneficial phytochemicals contained in them.......cooking tomatoes in good olive is another example (for the lycopene), as are the cooking of berries (breaks down the cellular shield that blocks the absorption of the beneficial compounds).
Great video John! I love how you continue to do you own thing, and stay true to your path/goals despite what people may say about you. It is clear that you care deeply about what gies into your body and that you do your research to continually uplevel you dietary regime. I learn from every one of your videos and appreciate them immensely!
I’ve been saying this for years. All of these raw food channels on TH-cam who were strictly raw were missing some things about health. There are certain foods that when cooked have many benefits. There is nothing wrong with eating a more balanced diet, raw food when appropriate and some cooked. Many will never stick to a 100 percent raw diet and can actually do more harm than good trying. Everyone’s body needs different things it’s not a one size fits all. Some people thrive being vegan or vegetarian while others develope health issues from it. I’ve seen it before when someone wants so badly to be vegetarian and their body can’t deal with it, add a bit of cooked food and bingo, they bounce back and thrive. I wish more people would understand this.
Before ANYONE criticizes anyone that eats cooked food, PLEASE first tackle and take on the meat and animal diary eaters. John, you’re just as perfect as you were, before you heated up some purple potatoes, lentils and shrooms. 🤴🏼👑🤴🏼
Juicing is really unnatural though. And anti-nutrients exists, which juicing concentrates. To me it's baffling why juicing is so big in the vegan community.
Yes yes yes. We are all on the same team here I really deplore when someone criticizes a raw vegan going to cooked food when the real battle is with the meat and dairy.
@@RipeLemon Your mouth is a natural juicer you chew the pulp and you drink the juice. Juicing forever alone is not recommended unless you're doing a cleanse or a fast on a temporary basis. Juicing has helped anyone that i know that has ever tried it.
Don’t take this the wrong way. It’s a genuine question your face seems to have got “puffy” and a bit podgy since going back to cooked. No judgment. But I’m just curious what you think could have caused it is it the heated foods or something else. Thanks.
I recently heard a raw vegan say she was incorporating more cooked foods because she was working out a lot more and needed more weight on her. Maybe that's what happens. Which good incentive to work out :)
instead of cooking the mushrooms u can alternatively also dehydrate the mushrooms at a non-raw temperature in the dehydrator (id imagine u heat them to get rid of that weak carcinogenic substance in them)...and then powder them and use them as a dressing thickener/umami agent - definitely more taste intense than boring boiled mushrooms
Hi, regarding your diversity of foods, I also neat mostly raw but eat certain legumes soaked/sprouted, then cooked, then cultured using my kimchi brings etc. However, I find that my diversity is greatly increased by eating wild plants. The typical diet consists of a smaller number of foods because so many foods belong to the same food groups like brassica foods. I enjoy all you r effort made to teach what you do to others. That's amazing. It's a real dedication to teach others. Great job and wonderful inspiration.
Thanks for all you do, John to educate everybody to maintain great health. Suggestion: get a nice background mural for your video production, something with green plants. Your content is great as is your knowledge. Polish up your presentation atmosphere and fly higher,
thank you for this wonderful video! i would just really like to see a disclaimer for everyone promoting turmeric juice - it is very high in oxalates and can cause some serious problems when consumed regularly or by anyone with kidney issues.
Agree 100%! My personal biomarkers are all that matters! Great video and thanks for showing a day in the dietary life of John. I couldn’t drink that much sweet juice but do love my juices.
Anybody watching plus remember that huge variety quality and level that John supplements with all kinds of different supplements he takes so it’s not just the food
John, one thing I'd challenge you to consider (since I know you're big on learning about the gut microbiome) - you've mentioned that you're not big on smoothies (but it seems you are big on juices). Pulp is fiber. It's what actually feeds gut bacteria. When you remove fiber by juicing, you basically take out the food for these different species living in your gut (juice doesn't make it there). Unless you eat that pulp in another form?
Interesting video. I notice that you do not appear to be including fermented foods. Do you do coconut? I have, most days, a hot drink made with miso, tahini, garlic, ginger, sea veg flakes & Himalayan salt. Thanks for all your videos. Great stuff!
Keep on 'CRUSHIN' IT' John, love ya bro, you're totally INSPIRATIONAL for the rest of us! 👍,thanks for sharing your journey thru life and greetings 👋from Mexico! 🤠
with all respect, no ofense but why are you lookig puffy lalety? i think you used to be more fit ? i want to try this diet but i dont want to gain weight or get inflamed. i have candida overgrowth so i have to be really carefull, just asking for that. thanks!
I’ve been really enjoying your videos! This one is very informative. Your channel has so much to offer! I also make cooking videos. I am so thankful to be able to learn from talented creators like you! Keep up the good work!
You can juice potatoes. Juiced potatoes are very healthy if consumed (best to mix with another item since flavor of potatoes is bland) or appplied to the skin for healing acne, scars, etc.
14:43 amen brother. Preach the truth. So many people think they can adjust the taste if theyre clever enough but its not about the taste. We dont eat ultra clean for the taste
"heat processed"... a safe word for COOKED? Eating like this is a FULL TIME JOB.... glad you can fit this into your lifestyle... but you don't have a "job", live in a warm climate with access to cheap, organic product, etc. This doesn't work for folks with a family, job (or 2!) and cold climates for 1/2 the year...
Exactly. And no way to down all those raw juices before heading out at 7am for a long commute to work on public transport with no access to a bathroom lol
@@caroldurand6803 believe me - we can all modify our life and eat better by incorporating this into our daily habits... but this type of eating is NOT for the average human.... it is not possible to maintain unless you are a single dude living in LV/LA and making TH-cam videos all day (or living at home with Mom/Dad in Houston with no worries like some other RAW TH-camrs...)
Now that I am changing my diet, since I want to eat healthier food this is a valuable information. Although this is kind to extreme change for me, slowly transition maybe I get there. For now I will drink the Green juice and detox shot since this seems to be a must. thanks.
havent tried it but eggplant looks like something that looks very "fermentable", maybe consider trying them that way instead of cooking if u havent yet, idk 😋
I’m going out of my way to eat the green bananas on occasion and basically the way the green banana goes in is the way it comes out fully formed at least for me sorry if that’s too much information but that’s what happens when I eat them it’s like my body doesn’t digest them at all but that’s just me
I wonder if flash heating mushrooms is sufficient enough? I love raw mushroom . At least a few days a week I eat a package of white mushrooms as a snack . No negative side effects yet , only eating them raw for decades . I don’t like them cooked, too tough and meat like . Will tossing them in boiling water for 20- 30 seconds take care of whatever the suggested issue is with raw?
Hi john the cold damage to fruit... can you explain that a a bit? Can it happen with bananas? When they’re dry and starchy despite being already black outside?..
You look like you have gained weight or are you experiencing some form of water retention? I ask because I am struggling to lose weight and am feeling like I am having to re-evaluate what my best eating plan should be. I would appreciate if you can point me in the right direction. Thanks.
Even Brian Clement from Hippocrates Health institute director who is been a rough guy for probably longer than John Kohler does eat a small amount of cooked food on occasion so if he does it and then cause he’s got the clinical data and he’s somewhere on the John he’s fanatical about what he eats and I love John I love his passion but John is fanatical and you have to have a Lotta time to be able to try to do exactly what he does now you can emulate and pick some of the things that I think they’re all good but to do his exact lifestylePlus a special garden that he has with special soil’s and he takes it to the highest levels you can go there’s a lot to learn from him though
Honestly. Why would you be concerned with people think? Do you. As in, what works best for your body. I’m vegan (not raw). But would happily incorporate more raw. Nothing to do with anyone else.
I so wish I could eat like this, I was raw for 1 1/2 years in 2012 and 2013 but really couldn't afford it, plus I don't have the ambition to make everything everyday, I just went back to a plant only diet as I had medical issues on Christmas day and had to go to the hospital, I spent 4 days in the ICU...
i call myself high raw...i eat frozen corn and pea all the time. on occasion i'll also have carnelian beans in the bag that was prepared in sea salt. but i'm constantly reading ingredients and seeking out fresh organic food as well as food that my body tolerates that is not organic. and i want to prepare healthy food for vegans that aren't quite at the high raw stage so I'm constantly tasting and testing.
@@danaprice8042 ok thank you...but I have been on plant based for 4,5 years now....so I am not sure it that is the case....I am not sure how long it took to grow your hair back...?
Idk why no one has suggested this, but you should go to a doctor to have your nutrient levels checked. Hair loss can be a sign of deficiency in nutrients such as iron and iodine.
Hi Jhon you don’t get severe diarrhea with that diet if I drink all that juice it diarrhea non stop till I stop drinking raw juice and all that raw food I don’t think my intestines like to much raw food raw diet is not suitable for people with IBS or Crohn’s someone that has Crohn’s or IBS or colitis definitely have to eat cooked vegetables in warm soups and bone broth I would like to know your guises comment on that what does a person do if they need to heal their intestines one of the things you need is collagen which is in bone broth
@@catherinebell122 I bring four cups of water to boil, then add two cups of amaranth. Reduce heat and simmer covered. Stir occasionally, and cook until water is merely gone.
this is what happened to me a few weeks ago. I started eating boiled veggies, and a few days later i started craving cooked indian food. Now I am addicted to cooked food again, and it triggers overeating (of cooked food). On raw food, I was not enjoying the process of eating that much. It was more ascetic. But the cooked food, triggers the pleasure factor like crazy, and then addiction sets in. I look at John now and he looks already 10 years older on "healthy, but dead" cooked potatoes and beans. For me switching to raw food means sacrificing the insane pleasure of eating cooked food - it is a huge sacrifce, worth it in the end.... With raw food, the body looks youthful and the craving "to eat a lot of tasty cooked food" is not there. People who eat cooked food look significantly older than raw foodists - this is the proof for me on which method is right.
What....Bananas now need to be green when eaten!!?? I suppose that's how some animals eat them, but my stomach can't take unrip bananas ....Probably depends on the body.
John I haven't seen your videos for a few years. I'm quite surprised by your appearance. I would hope that you are just using some sort of self tanner. if not, you look extremely jaundiced and yellow. Not bashing you in any way, just surprised by the drastic changes in your appearance and concerned for your health!
You should check out steakandbuttergal’s channel. She was vegan for 6 years, lost her period on year 4 of vegan diet. She switched to carnivore and got her period back on 3 months and cured all of her ailments and allergies. She completely changed her life on a carnivore diet and she celebrated her 3rd anniversary on carnivore diet.
Heat processed is just too funny. Raw is fine, but just so limiting. Some of us love grains and beans, and legumes and on and on and on. We can't all be living in sunny climes and enduring constant drought. Plants for the win.
Wow. You look so different from your video 6 months ago. Did you start weight training. Look like you put on some muscle. Maybe eating cooked eggplant is the secret 😉

instead of cooking the mushrooms u can alternatively also dehydrate the mushrooms at a non-raw temperature in the dehydrator (id imagine u heat them to get rid of that weak carcinogenic substance in them)...and then powder them and use them as a dressing thickener/umami agent - definitely more taste intense than boring boiled mushrooms

Even Brian Clement from Hippocrates Health institute director who is been a rough guy for probably longer than John Kohler does eat a small amount of cooked food on occasion so if he does it and then cause he’s got the clinical data and he’s somewhere on the John he’s fanatical about what he eats and I love John I love his passion but John is fanatical and you have to have a Lotta time to be able to try to do exactly what he does now you can emulate and pick some of the things that I think they’re all good but to do his exact lifestylePlus a special garden that he has with special soil’s and he takes it to the highest levels you can go there’s a lot to learn from him though
Appreciate ya man!
True blue all the way…..
Peace
Honestly. Why would you be concerned with people think?
Do you. As in, what works best for your body.
I’m vegan (not raw). But would happily incorporate more raw. Nothing to do with anyone else.
Hello 🫂 how are you doing today beautiful ❤️...?
I like this video. Great haircut.
Good for you!
I love chickpeas with salad
Have you ever thought of eating some eggs from Vital Farms? They are sustainably sourced from small family farms who treat their chickens right. 😊👍
Hello how are you doing today beautiful ❤️
But John, why no microgreens? I figured that would be the bees knees for health benefits
True…🌱
Hey John. Take a look into 80 acres farms. Theyre amazing
I so wish I could eat like this, I was raw for 1 1/2 years in 2012 and 2013 but really couldn't afford it, plus I don't have the ambition to make everything everyday, I just went back to a plant only diet as I had medical issues on Christmas day and had to go to the hospital, I spent 4 days in the ICU...
Thanks for this John!
Hello lnternetane
excellent video thank you
Love you John 🙏🏻
i call myself high raw...i eat frozen corn and pea all the time. on occasion i'll also have carnelian beans in the bag that was prepared in sea salt. but i'm constantly reading ingredients and seeking out fresh organic food as well as food that my body tolerates that is not organic. and i want to prepare healthy food for vegans that aren't quite at the high raw stage so I'm constantly tasting and testing.
You are WONDERFUL
Hello Sharon campuzano
Once again saw the comment doesn’t get lost what is Q 18 water
That's fucking right you do... Raw vegan diets were always wack
To each his own
John ...your the bomb :)
What happened to the time stsmps?
Hello 🫂🫂
Thank youuu
I am loosing hair on plant based diet...my hair are thin and I see people have the same problems but others no..not sure what is the issue...:(
Are you eating enough calories? Hair loss is a huge problem when people undereat.
@@jamie9663 well minimum is 2200 for me, today I had over 2700 calories...
Losing hair is natural when you are letting go of toxins. Your hair should grow in better once its purged. At least, this has been my experience.
@@danaprice8042 ok thank you...but I have been on plant based for 4,5 years now....so I am not sure it that is the case....I am not sure how long it took to grow your hair back...?
Idk why no one has suggested this, but you should go to a doctor to have your nutrient levels checked. Hair loss can be a sign of deficiency in nutrients such as iron and iodine.
Hi Jhon you don’t get severe diarrhea with that diet if I drink all that juice it diarrhea non stop till I stop drinking raw juice and all that raw food I don’t think my intestines like to much raw food raw diet is not suitable for people with IBS or Crohn’s someone that has Crohn’s or IBS or colitis definitely have to eat cooked vegetables in warm soups and bone broth I would like to know your guises comment on that what does a person do if they need to heal their intestines one of the things you need is collagen which is in bone broth
I eat cooked quinoa, amaranth, and beans. Everything else I eat is raw or sprouted.
How do you cook Amaranth?
@@catherinebell122 I bring four cups of water to boil, then add two cups of amaranth. Reduce heat and simmer covered. Stir occasionally, and cook until water is merely gone.
@@sacredromeo Thank you! Will cook mine up today😉
nice video!
this is what happened to me a few weeks ago. I started eating boiled veggies, and a few days later i started craving cooked indian food. Now I am addicted to cooked food again, and it triggers overeating (of cooked food). On raw food, I was not enjoying the process of eating that much. It was more ascetic. But the cooked food, triggers the pleasure factor like crazy, and then addiction sets in. I look at John now and he looks already 10 years older on "healthy, but dead" cooked potatoes and beans. For me switching to raw food means sacrificing the insane pleasure of eating cooked food - it is a huge sacrifce, worth it in the end.... With raw food, the body looks youthful and the craving "to eat a lot of tasty cooked food" is not there. People who eat cooked food look significantly older than raw foodists - this is the proof for me on which method is right.
💯💯💯
My dogs are always raiding my fruits and vegetables 😅
What....Bananas now need to be green when eaten!!?? I suppose that's how some animals eat them, but my stomach can't take unrip bananas ....Probably depends on the body.
Hello how are you
You don’t eat any grains?
John I haven't seen your videos for a few years. I'm quite surprised by your appearance. I would hope that you are just using some sort of self tanner. if not, you look extremely jaundiced and yellow. Not bashing you in any way, just surprised by the drastic changes in your appearance and concerned for your health!
"Urid dal" are lentils.
Have you ever thought about the possibility of you being wrong about your diet
You should check out steakandbuttergal’s channel. She was vegan for 6 years, lost her period on year 4 of vegan diet. She switched to carnivore and got her period back on 3 months and cured all of her ailments and allergies. She completely changed her life on a carnivore diet and she celebrated her 3rd anniversary on carnivore diet.
👍
When I seen your face on thumbnail I thought you were some little old Asian guy strange.
It looks like you are also packing on the pounds !!
Do you take adderall?
Heat processed is just too funny. Raw is fine, but just so limiting. Some of us love grains and beans, and legumes and on and on and on. We can't all be living in sunny climes and enduring constant drought. Plants for the win.
Wow. You look so different from your video 6 months ago. Did you start weight training. Look like you put on some muscle. Maybe eating cooked eggplant is the secret 😉
How do you gain weight?
