 You can add it to whatever you want in order to trick yourself and believe this actually tastes really like meat. All right, guys, welcome back to the channel. If you're new, my name is Bobby, guys, today we're going to watch Sweet Potato Soul. She is a vegan YouTuber that came out with a video called how to outsmart your cravings. Amazing stuff. Let's have a look. Hi, guys. Hello. So I know a lot of people are going vegan. I'm doing like a series of videos that will help you if you are becoming vegan or restarting your vegan lifestyle that will just help you, basically. I asked people on my Instagram, what questions did you have about going vegan and saying vegan and all those things? And one of the most common questions was how do I satisfy my cravings for unhealthy food, for meat? That's fantastic. So the most asked question is how do I satisfy my cravings on a vegan diet? Very telling. Just in general for non-vegan things. So this video is all about that. I'm going to give you your tips on satisfying those cravings, basically. Help me. The first thing I want to say is oftentimes when you're having a craving, you need to drink water. I can say this totally from experience. Yeah, that makes sense. Even now, you know, I drink a lot of water and I've been vegan for a long time. Okay, I said it 10,000 times before here on this channel. Water is dehydrating. I know this is mind-blowing information. How can that be? Listen, guys, when you drink water, all you do is flush out your minerals. It's easy as that. If you would drink raw coconut water, certain juices, then you could use it as a replenishment. However, if you're drinking water, you just flush out minerals, nothing more and nothing less. In this case here, all you're doing is stuffing your gut with water so you feel full. Of course, you're not satisfying your cravings. Cravings are your body signalizing what you should eat. Long time and I eat pretty well, but often I'll have a craving for something. Instead of just going for it, for me, it's typically salty snacks like tortilla chips and such. I'll drink water. Fantastic. Yet again, a chip's craving which can be linked to a protein deficiency, a mineral deficiency as well. This is why you crave potato chips because of the salt, because of the electrolyte. You're flushing everything out with the water and then your body craves minerals. Very easy to understand. First, give myself some time, maybe like five minutes after you drink the water. If the craving is still there, maybe I will indulge, but oftentimes the craving has just gone away. I was just thirsty. Often we also think we're hungry when we're thirsty. Learn to differentiate whether you're hungry or you're thirsty. A good way to know the difference is to just keep track of either mentally or maybe on an Apple in your phone of how much water you're consuming every day. Yeah, that makes perfect sense. Please tell me how much water I need to drink. Listen guys, if you hydrate your body, you can use some fruits for that. But even raw animal foods can be very hydrating. Obviously raw milk, but even raw salmon, raw sashimi and raw meat can be very hydrating for you. Meat is 80% water as well. To believe that you need an app in order to track how much you need to drink is absolutely insane. A large 32 ounce water bottle. Where is my water bottle? I exclusively drink from this water bottle though because otherwise I can't really keep track of how much water I'm drinking. My goal is to drink three of those 32 ounce water bottles a day. I always have it with me. Otherwise I don't really know how much water I'm drinking if I just am like drinking out of a cup. So you know, if that works for you, that works for you. Just keep track of how much water you're drinking so you can tell if you're thirsty or if you're actually hungry or are having an actual craving. Yeah, fantastic. That was the worst advice that I ever heard in my life. In the end she's just promoting dehydration and eating disorders. If you're hungry, just drink water then run to the toilet. Absolutely insane. Of course you can have cravings for different reasons. Sometimes you have a craving because you actually are deficient in some sort of nutrient. Your body is requesting that you put that nutrient into your body. Or you have some emotional attachment to such and such food. Or maybe you actually have a chemical addiction to something and that is causing your craving. The most common chemical addiction that I know of, at least from my own experience in my own life, is coffee. When I gave up coffee, I had cravings for coffee for an entire year. I was that into coffee. Another extremely common... That is good. On that note again, I know coffee lovers, you hate me. Coffee is a poison. It is simple as that. No, it is not a health food. No, it is not a super food. It is a poisonous bean soup. That is all. Every time you drink it, you poison your body and your body starts secreting adrenaline as a stress reaction. That is all. Addiction, not just a craving, but a literal addiction is for cheese. Yes. A lot of people would say, I would go vegan but I cannot give up cheese. Or the hardest thing about going vegan is giving up cheese. That is so cute. It is something you are just having a craving. Though it is a craving, but your body is actually addicted. There is something called esomorphins that are in cheese that attach to the morphine receptor in your brain. No wonder it is so hard to give up. And no wonder just by eating vegan... Amazing. It is 2020 and we still have the same misinformation. K-somorphins have nothing to do with real morphine. This is not an opiate addiction. You don't have to run to your dealer and get your cheese fixed. It is ridiculous. Your body recognizes the calcium, the bioavailable protein, of course, the K2 and all the other bioavailable nutrients that you cannot find in anything but dairy. Dairy is a superfood. Mother's milk, the perfect food for humans, obviously. To speak of an addiction is just yet again another sign of a total mental disorder, a.k.a. brainwashing through veganism. Cheese. You still might crave dairy cheese. But be kind to yourself, be patient with yourself and know that that addiction will eventually go away. When I gave up coffee... The addiction, the cheese addiction will go away. This is amazing, man. And what will you replace it with? With poisonous cashew cheese, with super processed vegan cheese. Is that better for your body? Come on, guys. I actually transitioned myself off of it slowly. I still do drink caffeine, but now I've replaced my coffee with matcha green tea. Congrats. It still has plenty of caffeine. It gives me the boost in the morning, though I don't have that same dependency on it and it doesn't give me jitters and make my stomach hurt. Yeah, absolutely ridiculous. So she swapped one drug for the other. However, that is not even the point here. We do understand that most vegans are addicted to caffeine because they cannot extract enough energy from their foods. That is not the point. The point is that she asked the question where do those cravings come from? But she failed to deliver an answer. Guys, if you have cravings for meat, could it be that your body wants to eat meat? Could that be? Think about it logically. Please use your brains. It is very simple. Your body is an ancient machine. It has been around here forever. It knows what to eat. You can trust your cravings. This is why so many vegans crave salmon. What happens after they eat it? They feel normal again. Trust your body. If you are craving meat, it could be that you're craving some sort of nutrient in meat or you're most likely craving the taste of it. It's the umami taste specifically. But luckily umami is also a taste that's present in plant-based foods. This is so insane. You're so deluded or willfully ignorant in order to promote your channel. After all, veganism is your business. You just crave the umami flavor. That is ridiculous. As I said, most vegans simply crave raw salmon after veganism. So there is no umami flavor in that. However, please rationalize this. Your body has certain needs. There are certain ways to signalize to you up here, upstairs, how to get nutrients. So when you put something into your mouth, your tongue, your body recognizes nutrition. Once it recognizes nutrition, it decides if it should eat it or not. That of course functions over the smell as well. All you try to do within veganism is trick your biology. You try to outsmart your biology. This is veganism. You replicate certain foods and you delude yourself into believing that this could be meat. You trick your body. All you're left with is nutritional deficiencies and cravings. This is why you have to make videos like this. Outsmart your cravings. Yeah, sure. You're going to outsmart your biology. Vegan logic. Cook with things like soy sauce and tomato paste. You need meat. You need bioavailable iron and protein. And cook with a lot of mushrooms. I also highly recommend using something called porcini mushroom powder. It's exactly what it sounds like. And you can add that to soups and to stews and you can add it to your broths or you can add it to... You can add it to whatever you want in order to trick yourself and believe that it actually tastes really like meat. It is insane. You want meat. Your body wants meat. You are restricting yourself. You are torturing your body. Dressings and sauces and all sorts of things. I used it a couple of times in my cookbook and I reference it a lot because it is such a wonderful way to add umami into your food. But just understand that if you're having a craving for meat it just might be the umami because meat does. Yeah, it just might be the umami. It couldn't be the iron. It couldn't be the protein. And you can add paprika also. Use smoked paprika. Amazing. Best video ever. But if you are craving the sensation and the texture of meat not only are mushrooms going to be your best friend they're wonderful though they're not plants but anyway mushrooms are great. Also use lentils. Lentils are wonderful. I make a lentil bolognese sauce lentil meatballs. Just carbs. Again, just carbs. The beef with the beans. It is ridiculous. Don't you see the pasta itself is just carbs. And then you add the lentils to it. What do you get? A little bit of mediocre plant protein with another bunch of carbs. This is nothing. This is no nutrition. You're just trying to replicate animal foods. Loaf lentils are just all around great. Another thing you can do like in my lentil bolognese sauce you also use walnuts. So that combination gives that nice like ground meat texture. You know guys that nice meat ground texture you want meat. But we're living in scarcity. We're living in 2020 where we do not have any access to meat anymore. We have to eat like peasants like in third world countries we have to make a lentil bolognese sauce because of what? You have all the food abundance in the world. But the West is starving themselves on purpose. Amazing. Basically. And it's so so tasty. So so tasty. Also I don't know if I have a video for this but another really nice way to replicate it believe it or not cauliflower and walnuts to make like a taco meat that you can put in tacos, burritos. Fantastic cauliflower and walnuts. And then we have pepper, some plant oils and nothing exactly nothing but digestive upset. Meanwhile you could have meat. Fantastic choice vegans. Foodables. Anyway you would use taco meat or ground meat. It's pretty good too. Actually it's not pretty good. It's delicious. Sure is. I believe you. So we already talked a little bit about the actual addiction to cheese that people have to satisfy that craving for cheese. Vegan cheese is like there are so many different types of vegan cheese. It's amazing. Made out of cashews. Made out of soy. Made out of tapioca root. There's all different types of vegan cheese. All right. Let's have a look at this beautiful, wonderful healthy alternative vegan cheese. Ingredients. Filtered water. Tapioca flour. Expeller pressed. Non GMO. Canola and or sunflower oil. Coconut oil. Pea protein. Salt. Vegan natural flavors. Whatever that means. Inactive yeast. Vegetable glycerin. Xanthan gum. Citric acid. Vegan for flavor. Titanium dioxide. A natural occurring mineral. Fantastic choice. Don't get addicted to cheese kits. Get the vegan cheese instead. The kind that melts. The kind that's aged and hard. There's little cheese slices. Any type of cheese you want there's a vegan cheese alternative for that. So check those out. Those are really helpful. No thanks. Also if you want like a cheesy taste, make sure you're using nutritional yeast. Nutritional yeast is wonderful. You can make your own vegan cheese sauces. Help me. Using it. That's so ridiculous. Now if you have a lot of sweet cravings that can be intense. When you're eating a lot of sweets and a lot of sugar and more sweets and more sugar. And by the way with all of these cravings your body's bacteria and your gut gets used to eating it and certain type of bacteria begin to proliferate. What are you talking about? There is some sort of nutritional advisor. Everybody knows vegans eat nothing but sugar. Actually make you crave those foods. That goes with sweets. That goes with meat. That goes with dairy. That goes with everything. So understand that as you start to eat healthier or to eat vegan, you got to give yourself be patient with yourself basically. Because it's not just you doing the craving. It's also your gut bacteria. There's a lot more of them than there are of you. So if you're having cravings or sweets, make sure you drink more water. Make sure you don't eat artificial sweeteners. Artificial sweeteners are shown to make you crave sugar even more. Makes sense. But eat more nutritious foods and even replace the more processed sweeteners with healthier, more wholesome sweeteners like maple syrup and dates. Those are... What is wholesome about maple syrup? Please explain. Vegans have no idea what they're talking about. Sugar is sugar. No matter if you wrap it in fiber, no matter if it comes in forms of dates or maple syrup or what not. In the end you're left with carbs. They're wonderful. But you still don't want to eat so much of that either. I think the biggest thing you can do is to just focus on eating more nutritious foods. Even sweet vegetables and fruits are much better than eating processed sweets. So sweet potatoes, of course, carrots are so great and eat lots of fruit. Replace your ice cream with banana and ice cream, which so, so good. Yes, so, so good. Obviously banana and ice cream is better than vegan ice cream. However, if you would eat a natural, real ice cream, ideally made out of raw milk and honey, man, you cannot beat that. That is the perfect food. Super healthy for you. Vegans always have to look for alternatives because their foods are already poison. Eggs. And lastly, a lot of people tell me that they crave eggs, especially in the morning and they can't go vegan because they can't give up eggs. Now I'm not going to say to eat the artificial eggs. I'm just going to eat tofu scrambles. They're really, really great. And in order to make your... They're really, really great if you want to disrupt your hormones. Fantastic choice. Tofu scrambles taste even more eggy. Use black salt. I admit I don't really like that sulfur eggy taste, so I don't use it. But if you do, black salt is going to be your best friend. Tofu is very high in protein. It's very filling. It's very easy to make, just like your regular... I said it many times before. As a vegan, you need protein sauce. Therefore, you choose soy. Yes, it is true. Soy has a lot of protein. Plant protein is really not absorbable. You don't even absorb 50% of that stuff. Fermented soy, like tempeh, is the better option. But by no means is it healthy for you on a daily basis. Eggs, on the other hand, you can have every single morning for the rest of your life. It is a perfect food. But with soy, you will just disrupt your hormones. It will lead to digestive upset. It is absolutely terrible. The eggs are just at that black salt. You set it off. You'll be so happy. You don't have to worry about eating eggs anymore. Oh, you don't have to worry. I was worrying so much. Thank you that you gave me the relief. Now I can eat the holy food that is given to us by our overlords. Thank you. Okay, so those are all my tips for satisfying your cravings.
