Unlike smoking, People MUST EAT! So take back control of your eating. Make balanced home cooked meals that are low in salt, sugar and fat. Eat a pound of vegetables a day from food that is well grown.

Buy Organic or R.G.B.H. free Milk from cows that have not been shot up with growth hormones and that are grass feed. Grass feed beef and grass fed chickens. Animals eating grass in a pasture have benefits. Make a decision to be a conscious eater.

@annajanuary

I eat organic as much as possible - but if i were dirt poor and ill informed, i wouldn't be able to!! I don't make a huge amount, but even i feel the 'wow!' when i get to the checkout at the health food store. Organic beans are $3+, regular Goya are $1.50, an organic cauliflower is close to $7, a regular one (with pesticides) is about $2. This is almost 5 dollars more for just 2 items! So, although people who CAN afford to MUST buy organic, what about people who can't afford it?

[areyouquitemad]

Respond to this video... Also, i buy free range eggs a whooping $4.25!! The regular ones are a little over a dollar!! A dollar!! how can this be right??!! If you have 2 growing kids, a wife and a husband making 35K a year, they're not gonna think twice about not only the violence that the chicken lived with, but with the chemicals teh chicken was pumped with and whose family is being fed this garbage!

Very informative.  Thank you for posting.

I think the major take away message from this speech could be that one of the main impacts of foods is its psychological impact, which is actually the most useful and efficacious and actually one of the most profound effects of food . Moreover, simple tips like balanced wholesome meals and not eating till fullness.... just getting back to basics.

[creativescientist]

If we are suffering from approximately 10% unemployment (in the United States) and only less than 1% of our population is producing our food, isn't it better to employ some of these people to grow and producer our food and quit subsiding these 1% producers?

[JobLeonard]

@T3mporal: if anything this guy is pro-science. He's not falling in the fallacy of "science is wrong because it's changing", he's saying nutritional science isn't ready for drawing the conclusions we're drawing right now.

[vearheart42]

Natural/Organic/Health foods are in general. . . Bullshit.

[elfootman]

Food Rules?? so simple! dont eat food that contain stuff a kid can not read. eat

home grown vegies, fruits, sea food some meat, avoid soda, and processed stuff

[T3mporal]

Aww, come on! As long as I see this video, MORE AND MORE fallacies I keep catching up, MORE AND MORE angry I keep getting.

.

Bad speech is BAD. End of rant.

[T3mporal]

AND he is falling in the fallacy of "science is bad because it keeps changing".

Again: Bad comparison is BAD.

[T3mporal]

The comparison with religion is a joke. NOBODY can test a god or see ANY benefit from it.

.

In the other side, we can test anything a scientist says. All we need is money and some lab rats to do the testing. AND we CAN SEE the benefits from it. Doesn't really matter what a nutrient looks are, the same way that doesn't matter the REAL looks of an atom, as long as we can explain its behavior and predict from it with accuracy.

.

Bad comparison is BAD.

[Melthornal]

@T3mporal Nutritionism ISN'T a science. That is what he is saying. He isn't talking about science at all, on any level. He is talking about the danger of believing in PSEUDOscience. As in, people who use scientific terminology to express completely unscientific opinions. Things that haven't been tested, and even if they have been tested the results are irrelevant (in the minds of the nutritionists).

[T3mporal]

@Melthornal Oh my. I forgot that Brazil and USA are different things. Here we have a Nutritionist that is legally protected under law and that needs to study like 6 years before getting the grade.

.

I hate globalization (I keed).

[vearheart42]

@T3mporal Marketing has a lot to do with the Psuedo-Science that is the "Health movement."

[sierrageneve]

@T3mporal there are ppl that seem to want to test god. and most ppl aren't going to test anything in a lab so they're taking the experts word that things are what they say they are. his comparison seems valid

[ergoplex]

@T3mporal You know, there isn't much to say besides the fact that you are just stupid. Everything I had to say has already been written in other reply comments so really, all that's left is that you're just stupid.

[liewecz]

true, true
