My opinion on two of the biggest problems with the American diet today. Lack of antioxidants and omega 3 fatty acids is potentially causing much of the health crisis facing America and other modern countries. As usual, by eating traditional, minimally processed foods this issue is generally addressed.

What’s better than …
What’s better than food based antioxidents? An antioxident catalyst that turns on production of your own antioxident enzymes inside your cells! Watch my video from ABC’s Primetime. Then watch my exclusive video of nationally renowned neurologist, Dr. David Perlmutter, and my exclusive video of Montel Williams. This is bigger than big and it’s just getting starting NOW!

It’s called ” …
It’s called “monetization” and it is essentially the thesis of capitalism. So long as maximization of profits is the goal it will continue. It’s value of having greater efficiency in the company’s use resources by obtaining greater profits from the same use. eg. One page with typical web traffic that redirects a greater number of people to profitable links.
Unfortunately, this has the effect of decreasing our efficiency by distracting us and eating up our time, focus, money, etc.

Wow..and I forgot about the ads right on the video just as I went to fullscreen. I think we need to start a campaign and boycott YouTube and let them know we will not stand for this and the reason for it. I find some of these videos informative and helpful but I mean come on. They will try to place ads anywhere they can. I will disclose a little bit about myself and say I have AD/HD and my attention can be diverted and too much info is not good for my functioning, but come on.

Ugh..why must humans try to make money anywhere they possibly can? They have to take something with potential and it up everytime. I guess it’s full screen for any video now. I mean..is anyone else annoyed by all of these ads? I notice the same thing with Facebook and I hardly bother with it anymore..info overload. I understand partly the business model behind sites like this but are there any ways to avoid the ads without fullscreen?

Most natural health …
Most natural health people tend to overrate how much of these nutrients people need. For instance, the 1:1 ratio between omega 3 and 6 EFA’s is not usually found in any natural diet, even though many alternative health people say that it is. There is almost no evidence that the original humans required these really high doses. The anti-inflammatory effects of omega 3′s seem to be vastly overrated.

Maybe in our natural habitat we don’t need any of this, but since we’ve dispersed throughout the north and south into these artificial means of survival, those nutrients are needed to patch things up for us.

thanks for the information. I’ve been soaking my beans and rice in water over night and trying to wean myself from splenda and other substances.
I purchased raw honey and have tried to make small changes gradually to my diet in attempt to return to what I call the ancestors diet. Keep up the good videos. Honored you posted a reply. Deeply respect your thoughtful videos. Makes youtube a valuable resource.

I was considering doing a video on that, but I think diet may be fairly individual in many cases. The starting point IMO is clearly minimally processed traditional foods (something almost no one accomplishes to begin with). But after that, it probably takes some experimenting to see what works best and is most convenient for you as an individual.

Today I contemplated on the beautiful geometrical patterns in my fruit and it reminded me of the water study, the snow flake structure in harmonious water. I wonder just how much significance this has for our bodies, opposed to the mish mash of dead stuff most people call food today.

People are said to be frugivores. We are designed to eat fruits. That’s why it is called the fruit knowledge of good and evil that Adam and Eve ate. In the garden of Eden there were many fruits.

the quality of nutrition that people have obtained has varied – it’s not like it’s been going strait down the last 2000 years- we probably hit a peak in the late 50s early 60s where we had a variety of food without the huge amount of junk food and people still sat down as a family to eat. As for what is lacking in the diet I’d like to say our minerals are not in good balance- the average person cares about calcium but not magnesium also sodium to potassium is not what it should be.

Many scientists no longer support megadoses of omega-3′s. And some others are starting to believe they are barely essential. Omega 3 (besides ALA) is not very high in most traditional diets unless they are eating fish. And to that point, what evidence is there that cultures with high omega 3 intake are healthier?
Not to take away from your points, but just a couple things to consider.

Although the corn industry launched that campaign to say high fructose corn syrup is safe it is not.
It pretty much kills your ability to produce insullin so you feel tired all of the time and eventually become diabetic, have higher blood pressure, get fat, have a risk for heart disease, etc…
If HFCS was banned in the US completely billions of dollars would be saved in medical care.
The AMA and corn lobby don’t want that.

Interesting, but I have one question: what was the average lifespan of a person before the 20th century? Basically, when people still ate traditional diets.
