Sally Fallon DVD Part 2 "NOURISHING TRADITIONAL DIETS"

[ChildOL]

I find it interesting that she mentions getting pancreatic cancer when considering that Steve Jobs was a vegetarian but died of pancreatic cancer complications.

Hey there! Have you thought about intellectus 424 diet (do a google search)? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my friend lost tons of weight with it.

[avinashkr4uraju]

Hello! Have you considered intellectus 424 diet (do a google search)? Ive heard some unbelivable things about it and my sister lost tons of weight with it.

[tekrajc]

longest lived people and longest without disease: Abkhazias, Hunzas, Wilcabambas, Okinawans, what do they have in common= 99% vegan, high carb intake. The countries that have the highest rate of cancer,heart disease, diabetes, MS, Osteoporosis and Arthritis are the countries with the highest meat intake. Denmark= highest red meat intake, Denmark=highest cancer rate in the world.

Finland= highest dairy intake, Finland= Highest OSteoporosis rate. Weston Price was nothing more than a dentist.

[noriko5959]

just giving correct information to @KingOfKingz911

Okinawans are haevy meat eaters, mate. they eat lots of traditional pig meat. They are NEVER vegan!! They are the heaviest meat eaters in Japan but live longest in Japan.

2:00 is a good point about the stomachs

[turuanu]

Well, I live in Central America now and people here love their corn tortillas, or corn anything and cooked beans, that they don't even soak! For the beans, I think it's a terrible waste of fuel; fact remains that Costa Rica is one of the blue zones, where ppl get to live over 100 years. Mind you, I don't like those cardboard tasting tortillas, and am all for sprouts and fermented food, but her facts and these facts don't coincide, as much as I have enjoyed these videos. Feel free to illumine me.

[sylphiengel]

@turuanu, corn in South America has traditionally been soaked in lime before consumption. This is an extremely important to preparing corn, and why traditional diets in places like Costa Rica work, while Americans in the who ate too much corn developed pellagra.

[turuanu]

@sylphiengel But even the corn used for flour was soaked?

[sylphiengel]

@turuanu That is my understanding, yes. Here in the US, you can find lime-treated cornmeal in specialty Mexican/South American food stores/sections, called masa or masa nixtamalera. (Remember that the lime here is not the fruit, but saturated calcium hydroxide solution, made from pickling lime, a rock.)

[turuanu]

@sylphiengel Here in Costa Rica they call it nixtamalizada, that's what the heck it means! But that's the white, cardboard-tasting flour. We buy masa P.A.N. which is yellow and the closest to cornmeal the way I know it. It's supposed to be precooked, whatever that means.

[hachiman2012]

Is it ok to eat cooked mung beans? I sprout them too but I find them harder to digest that way...also, when I eat dairy I get sinus problems, does this still happen with raw dairy?

[andersenedith]

She bases her theories on the work of a dentis and a Dr. Frederick Stare, former head of the nutrition dept. at Harvard, quoting him as saying silly things like Coca makes a good snack. He was head of nutrition dept. at Harvard, yes, but he was appointed in 1941 - I think we've ALL learned a good bit about nutrition in the 60+ years since then!! But she never mentions how old this info is in her book. Problem. I want to buy into her speech, but she doesn't look like she believes it.

[potteranna]

@andersenedith The whole point of this philosophy is that what we "think" we've "learned" is incorrect, misleading, and bad for our health. What she is saying, and you'd better believe she believes it, is that a more traditional diet is better for us than eating according to the guidelines set forth by those who've "learned a good bit about nutrition in the 60+ years since then". What they've learned, and hence tried to teach us, has made us unhealthy and fat.

[durianriders]

How come Sally Fallon is real fat these days?

[bradthompson86]

@durianriders Wow, if you think she is fat then there is something seriously wrong with you

[dromycatcher]

I thought tofu and soy milk are also modern foods and not tradional / fermented

[TreachMarkets]

Good info! I personally know a few people who had health problems from soy.

[jaytee3baxter]

Sally is my hero.

[TerraRyzer]

no shes not. the FDA is youre hero and YOU WILL admit that.

[jaytee3baxter]

Huh? No, the FDA is not my hero. I'm a former health-care industry journalist and have no love for the FDA, but I have tremendous admiration for Sally Fallon. What makes you think you know better than I do who I admire?

[ZaftigWoman]

I agree. She's my hero too.

[Squabbles10]

Don Tolman has a series of 8 videos on here explaining exactly what you are talking about. Watch them and let me know what you think ?

[rockymountainwomen]

Very important information about soy. As an ex-vegetarian who developed thyroid problems possibly as a result of eating high amounts of soy foods (many processed--e.g. veggie burgers for many years. Nourishing Traditions changes the way I eat and hopefully enhanced my health.

[AppleSouffle]

Rockymountainwomen, thank you for your story about soy.

On the forums I read, the vegetarians are so fixed in their views, totally unwilling to even consider that vegetarianism might have some down sides.

Barry Groves, a British chap, is very knowledgeable about healthy foods. I watched a splendid, 36 minute talk he did at the Wise Traditions conference. If you search on 'Barry Groves' 'Wise Traditions' you'll find it. I found it at a website called Vimeo.

A well deserved thumbs up to you!

[turuanu]

@rockymountainwomen Ex-vegetarian just because you couldn't eat soy??

[rockymountainwomen]

@turuanu I think there are ethical reasons not to eat meat; however, I think the nutritional reasons are the subject of a debate that will continue. The goitrogen effect of soy was not the only reason I stopped eating a vegetarian diet: I developed blood sugar issues eating a high carbohydrate vegetarian diet. That said, I think we are all unique: one person may do well on a high-carbohydrate, vegetarian diet; whereas, another person ,may do better on a high protein, low-carbo diet.

[Cairokmt]

@rockymountainwomen Me too- I have hypothyroidism. I was a vegetarian, raw foodist & now eat meat. I ate a lot of fake veggie burgers- non-fermented GMO soy, artif. flavors, etc., too many raw cruciferous veggies, green smoothies &strawberry smoothies (which have goitrogens).And I abused coffee. Now I only eat real (non-processsed) food- cooked veggies, fruit, fermented grains, no coffee, and organic teas. Got rid of the flouride (tootpaste, tap water) and eat org grass fed & finished meat.

[HomesteadProvocateur]

Excellent commentary on anti-nutrients. I'm fermenting some Scottish oats as this video plays.. This morning had some fermented Quinoa with yoghurt in addition to some sprouted lentils which were slightly sauteed and some raw sunflower sprouts with raw honey. It was not too tasty but It kept me full all day. All I ate other than that was a few strawberries and some freshly made kefir with strawberries. I feel soo full right now.. Weird.

[2Halifaxion2]

How do you ferment your quinoa? I eat the stuff all the time.

[HomesteadProvocateur]

You ferment quinoa first by soaking it for a night in water and then adding some Kefir or vinegar or Lemon Juice to the mixture and letting it sit for a couple more days. Then you are good to go!

[deionc]

have you read her cookbook? there are tons of tasty recipes and techniques.

[HomesteadProvocateur]

Absolutely!!! It is actually my FAVORITE book EVER!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT..

[Squabbles10]

Awesome. What about honey ?

[VelikiBedak]

I am not 100% sure, but although honey is basically simple sugar it has antibacterial properties so it is not as detrimental to teeth as someone might thought.

[almayim]

@Squabbles10 Honey is very good for you but it is a medicine, it is one food that should not be heated as it becomes toxic and without the beneficial bacteria, nutrients and enzymes it is basically a sugar, with some minerals. Also you must be very careful where you buy it from as many large honey farms steal ALL the honey and replace it with white sugar or these days HFCS for the bees to eat, which is very damaging. Bee exploiters Juliette Levy said. I use honey raw but do not bake with it.

[ladymagnoliaa]

omg!!!!!!
