    John,
    Great show! I'm approaching 70 and had my doctor recommend a wheat free diet for me. I've been 'wheat free' for 3 months, and although I really miss a lot of foods, I have to tell you my joint pains have almost disappeared and I'm off all pain meds....
    I'm mentioning this because diets really do make a difference and I admire and respect your decision to educate/encourage us to grow our own food.

    John thank you very much. I am vegan and have been for 7 years and I am so overweight. Everyone looks at me and says " How in the world are you so heavy with the way you eat so healthy" listening to you I am not eating healthy. My biggest problem is cashew cheese, cashew cheesecake, lots of nut mixes and coconut oil. You have shown me why I am so heavy. Thank you and please send me a site that I can get more information. Thank you both.

    Love this vid, very validating. Been fruits/veggies for 3 mos. now, no overt fats whatsoever. Don't plan on doing this forever, but open to it. Feel fantastic, yet keep reading others who say I'm deficient in something. Yet the people saying this don't look healthy to me. Looks like a low Omega 6 intake ALLOWS the body to do its own internal conversion to get ALL of the necessary nutrients.

    Does ratio applys for exmaple: for every gram of omega 3 there should not be more of 4 grams of omega 6? i'm a bit condusef, cause cronometar is working on %, but the minimum intake (default on cronometar) is 1.6g for omega 3 and 17g for omega 6, so should i look at % or grams?

    the enzyme part makes a lot of sense to me because when I was eating a high amount of omega 6's and didn't feel well I decided to add in enzymes which then helped me digest the omega 6s more efficiently, but if staying away from supplements was my main goal making sure the ratio is balanced would be the best way to go

    • @XYZ-nw1dh
      @XYZ-nw1dh 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tony Zamberlin... There is *no* DHA and EPA in fruits and veg. Our bodies must take the precursor, ALA and convert it first.
      As the doc explained, if you are eating too many foods high in omega 6, you will not convert well.
      I recommend you use Cronometer app to check your intake. Although it cannot tell you how well you're converting. So, it is still just a rough estimate.
      Some people convert better than others. I expect genes are part of this. My genetic test showed poor ability to convert ALA to EPA and DHA.
      Some vegans now use algae oil for preformed EPA and DHA. They can be expensive or unavailable in some places though.

  • @sandrabentley1420
    @sandrabentley1420 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    The big problem for vegans is eating too many carbs with too many fats, this combination is deadly because it promotes insulin resistance. So inflammation is really insulin resistance. Not as bad as SAD diet, but can be pretty bad if you eat tons of fruit and high carb veggies with too much fat.

  • @ellena858

    Been raw vegan plus herbs for 6 months. This is my second attempt at raw vegan because while many health issues clear up, I get extreme fatigue. Can Omega 3’s account for that?

      Ellen Boemer How are you doing 2 months later? Have you added more omega 3's and reduced omega 6's? From watching this video I got the feeling that Dr. Rick Dina could actually help with your issue, since you're eating well and don't know why you feel so tired, he can test your levels and give you customized advice. Hope that helps! 💛

      It's like vitamins and minerals. If they are out of ratio, then there are problems. Omega 3s and 6s need to be in balance at certain ratio, unfortunately I can't remember what it is...the thing that is not spoken about is that you get most of your omega 6 fats from plants...because they are mostly 6 fats.

    2 Things:
    1) A lot of great information in this video and I'll be sure to remember it when I look up more information regarding Fatty Acid balance. I always like getting multiple sources and comparing them regarding nutrition & health.
    2) The initials "D.C." that follow Dr. Rick Dina's name stands for "Doctor of Chiropractic." He never went to medical school for a medical degree or graduate school for a PhD. No initials aren't everything, but you always need to consider your source.

      Many Chiropractors do other practices as well because the laws are loose about what they can call a client base or practice. Often chiropractors are taught homeopathic medicine because it is a healing art...but you are correct, there are pros and cons to this. If the person seems honest otherwise, it is probably a strong interest that they are trying out. :)

      I don't know why you would eat that much at once. Flax is a very concentrated food. In what form did you consume that amount of flax? You don't need much to get the benefits, esp if they are freshly ground. Premade flaxseed meal is not really healthy though.

    • @Erenm
      @Erenm 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      "Flaxseeds contain an agent called cyanogenic glycosides, a chemical that occurs in over 2,000 plants. These compounds are part of the sugar molecules in the plant and convert to cyanide, a poison, in the human gut. If you consume too much of these compounds from plants you could become very ill, or it could be fatal.
      However, you would have to consume a huge amount, 200-300 ppm, in a short period of time, for these compounds to adversely affect you as the human body rapidly breaks down cyanide compounds within 30 minutes. A lethal dose would be 0.5mg to 3.5 mg per kilogram of body weight in 30 minutes.
      Even though it is highly unlikely anyone would intake a fatal dose of these compounds in using flaxseeds, it is important to be careful giving them to small children and adults with low body weights. Make sure they are stored in an area that a small child cannot get into and accidentally ingest more than they should."
      Might not have been the omega 3's that got you that effect..

    Hey guys are non-inflammatory foods the ticket for dealing with inflammatory bowel disease? It's not an obvious question to me since there is an auto-immune mechanism they don't seem to understand really well.
    I just had some fresh pineapple specifically because some fruits are anti-inflammatory. Some foods give an immediate sense of positive feedback, that the body is saying 'yeah yeah, this is the right thing you should eat today.'

      +Lawrence Low I would say at least 2 grams of DHA per day for optimal health and disease prevention. You will not achieve that with a vegan diet unless you take algae oil supplements. A vegan diet contains zero DHA and EPA. They are only found in animal products and algae. Our bodies are not efficient at converting ALA to DHA. To keep eating seed oils in the hopes that you'll eventually eat enough so you'll you can end up with enough DHA due to conversion is kind of pointless. Just go to the source (animal products and fish) or supplement.

    Virunga National Park is Africa's oldest national park. It could soon become Africa's newest oil field.
    British oil company Soco International PLC plans to explore for oil inside the park, even though the park is protected under Democratic Republic of Congo law. More than 27,000 people fish in Lake Edward and it provides drinking water to 50,000 people. But thousands more benefit from locally sourced fish, renewable energy and other park-related activities. Virunga has been a national park since 1925 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979.
    Oil development in the park would threaten local communities that rely on the park's natural resources and jeopardize the region's potential for long-term income from sustainable development. Join us in telling Soco and government leaders that Virunga is too important to open up for oil exploration.

    Excess equal ratios of fatty acids in no way shape or form ever get stored as fat. If insulin is not present, the fat we eat is what we use to anti-age and literally build your brain and immune system. And yet you tell me not to eat too much fat? Yet again John it seems as if there are still unconscious assumptions in you that were put into you by the FDA as a child. You haven't tried this approach so you DONT KNOW.
    .(please don't take that to heart I love you)The fat we "wear" is frm none other than excess glucose. And the cause of all dis eases; esp cancer and heart disease. And then lack of fat is the leader for Alzheimer's dementia Parkinson's depression etc. Consider intermittent fasting and then using fats herbs and leafy greens as a primary fuel source(while high healthy carb cycling once a month. Being healthy implies muscle definition. And by using fat as a primary fuel source, muscle growth will always naturally happen. Bc I know u garden hard. Get some Gainz from your garde
