80 10 10 Diet - Dr. Doug Graham

[vrataFF]

what about growing children ?

[TheCoolVegetarian]

@vrataFF What about them?

[LeppardPrintAnimal]

Also, he makes out that he's a medical doctor and he is not, he's a chiropractor.

[opiumpoppy]

@LeppardPrintAnimal Uh, he is trained as an MD, and a nutritionist. He just specialized in chiropractic medicine - that is like saying a podiatrist or a dermatologist isn't a doctor.

And he does look good, he's like 60. How many 60 year olds do you know that look like him!

[LeppardPrintAnimal]

He doesn't look good. He's not a good advert for his diet.

[RhetoricalSyndicate]

@elmondark Thats right, when you mix there is a problem, so if you run your body off carbs from sweet fruit, your body doesn't need fat as an energy source, so it looses it. The fat prevents insulin from binding to the insulin receptor, leading to a high blood sugar level and what is eventually known to be diabetes. Fat stores toxins also.

I eat 5kg or more of fruit a day, and heaps of greens and veggies. Heals the body so well and makes you so happy :D

[AdamantFireheart]

Hmmm what about eating raw soaked brown rice,buckwheat and quinoa,cause i really like em :D

[elmondark]

@AdamantFireheart those are crap. we're not made to eat that. we've just eaten it for a very short time period, and it's nothing good about it.

just eat lots of fruits if you wanna be vegan, and stay away from rice, wheat and such ^^

[AdamantFireheart]

@elmondark yeah fruits are fine if i was not: Strength training with weights , doing calisthenics , training martial arts and tricking and also parkour , oh yeah and i finish my workout with high intensity interval training , so yeah if it wasn`t for seeds and nuts and some of the grains i would have probably been dead by now.I`m trying to do only fruits and veggies , but my muscles don`t seem very happy about that.

[TheCoolVegetarian]

@AdamantFireheart Good question! You might want to read Dr. Grahams' short book "Grain Damage". I believe the answer lies there :)

[AdamantFireheart]

@TheCoolVegetarian Thanks i`ll get into that matter, my guts don`t agree with grains very well anyways :D By the way the only "grain" i got no problems with is buckwheat , guess what , it turns out it`s actually a fruit :D

[TheCoolVegetarian]

@AdamantFireheart Really? That's neat. I always thought they were seeds :)

[natureasintended]

This is extremely informative. Love it! (twice lol)

[TheCoolVegetarian]

@natureasintended Glad to hear! :)

[TheCoolVegetarian]

@SuperRJA1991 That's Great!!!

[hoppimike]

I like the bit about once you do it your health improves and you don't wanna change!

There's definitely truth there. I'm still learning about diet, but when I steer my diet more in this direction I can feel the improvements.

There's definitely a lot to learn from this at the very least :)

[TheCoolVegetarian]

@hoppimike so glad you like ! i think dr graham rawks !! check out all the vids of him that i have posted here

[Oloimpresive]

funny finger

[IronCladBen]

So wait you're just supposed to shop in the produce section and eat fruits and vegetables all day? That sounds way too uncomplicated to work. Besides how can he make any money without selling pills, powders and supplements?

[MarcusNorberg]

@IronCladBen

His retreats I presume. But spreading a message doesn't necessarily have to do with making money :)

[TheCoolVegetarian]

@MarcusNorberg 'ironcladben' was joking not serious i think * 

[TheCoolVegetarian]

@IronCladBen haha ! thats great ! 

[newgtguy]

@IronCladBen Nice!

[angelbe88]

Fruit is the tastiest food on the planet.

[MichaeLightify]

@angelbe88 hmm I suppose thats debatable... I know a lot of non-fruit foods that are super tasty

[angelbe88]

@MichaeLightify

such as?

[MichaeLightify]

@angelbe88 almost anything can be tasty!

nuts and seeds, raw and steamed veggies- (sweet) potatoes, beets, rice and other grains,

also most cooked food dishes can be quite tasty if the right person is preparing them :)

[angelbe88]

@MichaeLightify

Agreed except I'm speaking of the food that tastes the best as is, no adulterations no additional ingredients : )

[MichaeLightify]

@angelbe88 well in that case... maybe fruit win :)

[TheCoolVegetarian]

@angelbe88 if we count tomatoes i agree !!

[imperfectionKillz]

Do lentils, beans and quinoa have too much protein in them?

[thatfruitarianchick]

@imperfectionKillz Yes I´d say so. I believe fruits and vegetables are better for the 80 10 10.

[TheCoolVegetarian]

@imperfectionKillz lentils and beans are hard to digest and assimilate. quinoa is good sprouted

[charmainey2010]
