I have been making my own Organic Greek style Yoghurt, Kefir, and Sauerkrout for the last year. I am 81 and feel really healthy using these . Organic Whole milk, Purchased Kefir Grains and brought them to life and Fresh Cabbage, not old Supermarket rubbish.
I eat salad for breakfast, with lots of olive oil and apple cider vinegar dressing, fully loaded with tomatoes, peppers, cukes, avocado and sometimes broccoli. I eat a few handfuls of nuts too.
I’ve tried it all been sick for 60 years trying to find what’s wrong and now doctors are saying grains and some fibers affect people with IBS, I finally feel so much better. Thanks for the information it really is hard finding low sugar or no sugar. I stay with eggs or yogurt with veggies and fruit low sugar
I stayed away from oats for a while because of the bad publicity. But I like oatmeal. I don't eat the oatmeal packets. But I do get the rolled oats or the whole oats... And I'll put a teaspoon of molasses(molasses has a lot of benefits). Maybe a pad of butter and some cinnamon(possibly some figs and chia or flax)in there and that satisfies me for the whole morning. Other days I'll have some eggs and berries. Another days. It's just fruit and a sausage... I think you're if you have a variety of things. You'll get all the necessary nutrition you need...
I love oats and the organic, less processed options are ideal. However oats can have grain terpene or maybe mold affecting them. I became sensitive to that. I still love oats that are free of terps.
I love the fact that you promote diversity......and you discuss pros and cons of each food so each person can make decisions that is best for their own health. There is so much information out there that can be so confusing.
what I eat in the morning approx 4x per.week is : the evening before, I put yoghurt in a bowl, add oats and chia seed and I vary with hempseed or broken flagseed. The next morning it is all soaked and mushy and I eat it. No cooking. Is that bad?
Some interesting information on the difference between greek and greek style yoghurt .(I would go for fewest ingredients and higher fat ones as was mentioned on the video If you’re opting for Greek yogurt because of its incredible health benefits, then do not choose a “Greek-style” yogurt thinking it’s the same thing. These usually contain cream, gelatine, gum blends, stabilisers, preservatives, milk solids and more, to thicken the yogurt and quicken the straining process. They also detract from the natural Greek yogurt’s nutritional benefits and can be problematic especially for lactose intolerance sufferers who may believe that they can eat Greek-style because it’s the same as Greek. Simply put, a Greek-style yogurt gets its name because there is some straining going on, like they do in Greece. But that’s where the comparison begins and ends.
Thank you very much for sharing these informations 🙏🏻 I would like to know your thoughts on adding organic pea protein to the breakfast for plant based vegans. I eat mainly whole plant foods but use pea protein for extra protein. Many thanks 😊
Interesting 👍 Oat porridge used to be a staple breakfast in elderly care, cooked the old fashioned way, slowly on a stove with whole milk. It helped with regularity, reduced need for laxatives, and was easier to chew. Staff enjoyed it too.
my standard breakfast like I just finished this morning is a breakfast burrito made with firm tofu for the egg, add garlic powder, smoked paprika, fresh ground black pepper, Turmeric, red pepper flakes, at the end I add black salt for that eggy flavor, I make my own breakfast "sausage" out of TVP and spices that taste exactly like regular meat sausage. I add vegan cheese at the end to melt into the tofu scramble then I roll that up into a flax seed tortilla that very high in fiber and protein. a very high protein breakfast, at least 45gr protein with no meat. no eggs, no dairy
Can you advise whether Indian cheese (paneer) is good source of protein? Also I’ve been using coconut milk in some of my dishes, would you recommend or not.
I soak 40g of organic oats in milk overnight and for my breakfast I'll fry the oats along with 3 eggs and 30g of organic cheddar cheese in a little avacado oil. I just throw the whole lot into the frying pan and stir until egg is cooked/scrambled. I don't know if this is a healthy breakfast but it sure keeps me satiated for a long time, much more that having cereal followed by toast. Mind you, although I'm 67, I train 6 days a week, 3 in the gym and 3 running.
You didnt watch . He suggested 7 or less eggs a week . I can do 3 to 4 eggs a week and never 2 at a time . I can eat Oats . 1/ 4 cup steel cut at a time and combine them with plain yogurt fruit seeds nuts fresh fruit .
As with not all oats are the same,or offer the same benefits ,with eggs or any other animal product, it's worth sourcing the best in terms of what the animals were fed on. It's worth remembering what the food writer Michael Pollen stated :, 'We are what we eat EATS '. For example- pasture fed eggs or meat offers more benefits and better fats than a mainly grain or cereal diet. Here's some info on that here : Eggs from pasture-raised chickens are generally healthier than eggs from chickens raised on grain feed:  Pasture-raised eggs contain more vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids, and less omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, than eggs from conventionally-raised chickens: Vitamin D: Pasture-raised eggs can contain up to three times more vitamin D than eggs from hens raised on traditional feed Vitamin E: Pasture-raised eggs can contain up to four times more vitamin E than eggs from hens raised on traditional feed Omega-3: Pasture-raised eggs can contain up to twice as much omega-3 fat than eggs from hens raised on traditional feed
I used to force myself to eat porridge oats due to the supposed health benefits. I gave up eventually because I didn't like the taste, smell or consistency. Worst of all I felt absolutely lousy afterwards. Life's too short, right. But I felt uneasy about my decision. Same story for bananas too. Glad I eventually listened to my body. As we know now personal responses to food vary greatly according to your own physiology which calls into question the simplistic healthy/bad food argument. I have since found that oats (and bananas) cause huge blood glucose swings for me hence feeling awful. However, barley has the opposite effect. So I have different breakfasts every day and now use barley flakes if I do fancy porridge. I also substitute them in any recipe requiring oats.
Bananas... they are quite constipating for some people. make my blood sugars bad. I once had oats with banana and nearly collapsed from low blood sugar. you are spot on - listen to your body we are all different.
I usually eat two eggs for breakfast at least three days a week or leftover dinner (for the last forty years) but once in while have oats - with bad results... I recently experimented with oats again because I was told they are good for me, (don't care about my cholesterol at all) - there's nothing wrong with my gut health but everyone is always bleating on about gut health all the time now... so I tried the whole chopped up kernel not the steamed and rolled variety - soaked and cooked up long slow, changed the water, served with with soaked crushed almonds and had protein powder milk with them. I felt quite bloated all day. thought it was just because it's a new food but after a week still feel bloated and they are constipating for me and fattening. Did notice the bigger tummy from the bloat. I remembered why I stopped eating them as a kid - they don't suit me - used to give me the shakes and 'explosive' poop back then. I was raised by a hippy mother who was into 'health foods' so I'm not new to 'healthy' eating. Bircher oats and muesli were part of our life - I think I had IBS looking back - I always had a bad tummy - bloated and pain from all the grains and stuff and raw foods. Back in the day when dieticians were saying how good oats were I always used to think they were not good for me. If I don't add a lot of fat and protein I have bad blood sugar issues. Anyway I'm going back to my normal breakfast of two eggs, with avacado and some fish or meat or leftover dinner etc. (Sometimes that's ground beef and quinoa and veggies). I eat small serves of grains but oats and me don't really suit each other. Too low in protein for me, so if I"m adding protein powder might as well have meat fish and eggs. Don't like being bloated and farting all day. Oats with honey and banana is a disaster!
Steel cut oats yogurts seasonal fruit walnut or pepitas or almonds or sunflower seed . No bloating and it's 4 before I am hungry again .mostly I eat a japanese brekky ( natto rice tofu miso daikon carrot etc) but when fruit is in season I di a few oats brekkies
I’ll have to tell you a lot of people can’t eat grains and most fibers because of IBS. I’m the same been dealing for 60 years finally the doctors are researching and finding out that a lot of fiber and grains affect people with IBS. So good for you.
You are eating groats not oats. It is probably the germ, endosperm or bran causing the issues. Try steal cut oats. If they still give issues I would say oats are not for you.
I'm afraid I am with Zoe Harcombe in that there are no essential carbohydrates and I eat at least a dozen eggs a week - have lost over 2 stone (28 pounds) and never felt better.
Most likely pesticides as non organic oats are sprayed. Oats don’t contain gluten but often rolled in the same mills as wheat so organic gluten free oats will be worth trying.
Wish I could heal and know what to do foodwise so many opinions and praying for direction and healing for so long and Just getting worse and more disease and uncurable progressive damage
Ty I have high potassium in my blood because of 1 kidney. Now my dr doesn't want me eating more than 1500 MG. Of potassium per day so very difficult to follow a healthy diet.😊
Please don't take your health advice from this man who is using outdated science on cholesterol. It's pretty common knowledge that the cholesterol in eggs does not affect blood cholesterol. Whether that is even a good marker for heart health in the first place is to be debated and high LDL cholesterol may even be protective! This man can't even get the basics correct. Please take his information with a pinch of salt. Also, spending 13 minutes talking about oats as if they are the holy grail is absolute cringe. The nutrition in oats look quite good on paper, however poor bio availability and very difficult to digest. Eggs on the other hand, perfect human nutrition, still absolutely a true superfood and has lots of heart healthy essential vitamins and minerals! Zero mention of anti nutrients or nutrient bio availability is worrying to say the least.
I eat raw organic oats with lots of diffrend seeds and nuts, different fruits, with a spoon ful of orgainic greek yoghurt and soya milk, this is why I hardly ever eat lunch, im still not hungery 😂
Dislike most of the 'epidemiological research' rationalised by theoretical mechanisms. For me, oats (traditional porridge) just make me super hungry 2hrs later. I dont get hungry before lunch if i dont eat breakfast. Do your own test. 'Highly debated in the nutrition world' , the formal/academic nutrition world has not done us well over the last 50 years. Saturated fat is no longer a 'nutrient of concern' and i dont WANT to lower my LDL
A question about oats - does it matter whether they are cooked or 'raw' (or rather, steamed, I think, as part of the rolling process)? I make my own muesli from organic jumbo oats, 3 types of broken nuts and a small amount of dried cranberries (for that sweet/sharp flavour that turns the museli from just OK/boring to something I look forward to eating). I let all that soak for a while in a mixture of goat milk and goat kefir, to soften the oats a little. I precede or follow the muesli with a separate serving of fresh fruit. I prefer the texture of my muesli to porridge, but are the oats better or worse for me that way than cooked in porridge?
Thank you, Fabulous Video! 👏🏻🎉🎊 I soak my oats.. There appear to be fewer of us still eating oats🎉 I heard brown Rice has higher levels of Oxalate! So for those who Trying to eat low oxalate..

Oats arre dreid off with pesticide before harvest. I always buy organic oats since learning this.
Like wheat and All grains, glyphosate is sprayed to dessicate ( dry) the grains, to make harvesting easier!

I’ve been buying sprouted organic rolled oats. Hope it’s a good choice.

I buy the organic rolled sprouted oats at Costco and microwave them for 4 mins at 50% so the oats don’t overflow the bowl. Works perfectly and is fast
I have my dal kichdi in the morning with an avocado and then Joghurt nuts n berries as well :) wholesome savory breakfast!

Oats in the US havebeen proven to conttain harmful chemicals, even the organic oats.
Flaxseed need to be ground, for the body to utilise.
