Simply Health ME E56 Healthy Diets Gone Wrong
Manage episode 217090768 series 2363511
You can do any “healthy” diet poorly
Nutrition is not religion
- A “poor healthy” diet will work for a while Because it is probably better then SAD At some point, you will hit a plateau in your goals (weight loss/health) All diets CAN be healthy or unhealthy Nutrition is not Religion A reminder that genetics may determine which diet works for us
Ways that any diet can be unhealthy
- Vegetable Oils
- In all processed food Soybean, canola (organic doesn't make it healthy) Paleo, vegan, keto baked goods, cookies, crackers etc. “Fake” vegan cheese
- Added Sugar
- See above Honey in moderation may be okay but tons of added sweetener Artificial sweeteners in “low carb”sweets
- Foods that you have an intolerance for
- Grains, dairy “One man's food is another man’s poison” - Titus Lucretius Carus aka: Lucretius
- Processed Food
- See above (veggie oils, processed carbs, sugar) Meat can be processed too
- Weird Ingredients
- E.g the ice cream we got last night If you don’t know what it is, you probably shouldn't eat it
- Nutrient Deficiencies
- B vitamins NEED to be supplemented Vitamin C possibly in Carnivore
Just because it says “organic”, “paleo”, “low carb”, “vegan”, does not mean its healthy
If it has a label on it, its not real food.
No human population ever ate only plants or only meat, we are omnivores
