Kills vitamins and enzymes. Some veggies are more resistant to that than other + frying on oil is dangerous and unhealthy regardless on what you fry. Fun fact: Frying tomatoes turns them so acidic that they break down some of the pan surface which you then consume -> this may lead to Alzheimer's development.

@Charlotte you may also try Sun Chlorella as an alternative. Also good on Vitamin D and B12. They may be a bit pricey but 1500 pieces will last you for a while. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sun-Chlorella-Pack-1500-Tablets/dp/B0011UJCWK/ref=sr_1_3_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1536751080&sr=8-3&keywords=sun+chlorella 10 of these tablets will get you around 3mg portion of iron which I believe is quite close to daily requirement for females (3-4)? This product is Highly absorbable as they use a powerful blending technique to break the cellular wall. Company is based in Kyoto, Japan and is probablu one of the highest quality Chlorella in the world cultivated in very tightly controlled environment unlike some crappy Chinese Chlorellas. If you top it up to like 20 a day, I'd say your values get back pretty quickly unless there is something else going on.

To connect with your followers on a bit more personal level

Usually, any social anxiety is a negative belief or some sort of "demon" hidden on the inside. An experience in the past such as being ridiculed by a girl or being seen without pants on or being the "ugly kid" at school or even severe ones like being molested by a father or raped.....you know what I mean. These may create a life-long avoidance of certain situations that could lead to it repeating itself and the person having to re-live the unpleasant experience. I'd suggest first of all you work on figuring out what the deep issue is by starting to journal on a notepad or contemplate in your mind. Reserve a time of 30-60 minutes a couple times a week, put all distractions aside and focus 100% on this thing. I think Leo had a video called "uncovering your childhoow vows" that could also help you as well as the "contemplation" videos. Meditation is also gonna be helpful to calm your mind and help you dig a bit deeper in the past.

Tens of thousands of deaths every year, broken marriages, traumatic childhoods and destroyed dreams would tell you that alcohol is not the best substance to consume. There is a great value in using it to create herbal tinctures which is why some hard alcohol is believed to have "medicinal properties" like Jagermeister or any herbal liquor but that has nothing to do with the alcohol itself, it is merely it, being the catalyst stimulating the healing effect of those herbs. The entire French Paradox is bonkers and drinking red wine every day has been proven to be untrue. The only other benefit I see is a temporary breakdown of social barriers but that just indicates the lack of deep work and personal development.

Most plant foods are sources of vitamin C. Rarely do people eat oysters on their own or without having a salad before or after. Most of them still live I assume...

i you feel that your LP is inauthenthic and can't move towards the real one, than do it. Better than losing 10 years pursuing the wrong thing. You can skip the "theory" in the beginning and get on with te practical stuff although it never huts to rewind the core principles

I want to see someone who is genuinely passionate about the travel and places they visit. I don't care about fake smiles, "heeeey guuuuuys" faking youtube "models" who thumblink every video with their pircure in bikini, these videos make me sick literally. Drop any excessive makeup, cleavage revealing shirts and obvious click-batey clothes. What I miss in travel blogs is more history and description. For example while visiting an ancient site, in the background give us some interesting facts about the place, add a nice music etc. Try to find out something exciting about your destination's history. For example if it was a city that has in the past been besieged by roman army and fought them for days eventually leading to utter distruction and slaughter of every citizen, make sure to mention that. Add tips on what to avoid, what are the tourist traps or how not to get ripped of by local salesmen or taxi drivers. Tips on public transport tickets, schedules and costs,, currency exchange places, great budget hidden restaurants and tips for vegans, vegetarians. Be genuine and most of all be yourself. Don't fake anything. If you hate anything about the destination, tell the viewer. Never pretend that every place is gold. If you get lost, angry or upset, add that to the vlog too so that the viewer sees the reality of the place. All the best with the channel

not the best idea IMO. You will most likely already struggle with energy levels during a long term fast and should conserve as much energy as possible. Long fast should be aimed at healing and cleansing. Exercise is neither as it produces acids in the body that take a lot of effort and energy to be buffered. Of course light walks and yoga are perfectly fine just don't go doing heavy heart pounding, hard breathing workout.

@bejapuskas not a fan of his work This guy bashes on lentils like a madman. His audience are people with digestive issues that haven't been diagnosed and fixed properly. It is an elimination diet that takes away some of the most powerful category from the plant kingdom but does not fix the underlying issue. Not to mention he is a pill-pusher for Lectin shields and all sorts of crap. Of course many will benefit from eliminating lectins but the research clearly demonstrates that these foods prolong life and protect from a lot of chronic diseases.

The sciatica is just a symptom of the herniation and sciatic nerve compression, you want to treat the herniation locally. First of all, the inflammation is there for a reason. It IS NOT a bad thing. The inflammation is your second line immuno-defence mechanism because it means your body is vasodilating and increasing permeability of local capillaries to improve the healing. Antiinflammatories is the last thing you want to do in case of acute inflammation. The pain is there on purpose so that you don't move the area which slows down the healing. If taking them, at least make sure they are NSAIDs (meaning non-steroidal) Try to chat to a naturopath or acupuncturer to see if there is anything to help the healing process. Or some herbs that improve lower circulation. I wouldn't put a lot of strain but mild swimming seems like a good idea as well as taking walks. Generlly the body knows what it is doing and can fix a lot of things provided that the fluid leakage from the herniated disc wasn't too significant or that the dislocation needs a manual adjustment.

I used to compete in Judo from my 7 till 21 and can absolutely understand the passion and discipline that comes from martial arts. While I am all for having ambitious goals in life, trying to be THE BEST is always a losing game eventually. You put yourself in a shoes of competitor and your life will be based on always looking behind shoulder, always striving to be ahead of competition and keeping your golden throne. Eventually this is what drives many guys down the road of chemical substances and using whatever means available to stay on the top. This is one of the reasons I left the competing because many guys took it way way too seriously and relied on a lot of gear from what I've learned later on True life purpose should be about giving back and sharing your greatest gifts with the world, this is by far more rewarding than being awarded the best fighter...in a long term at least. That being said, perhaps at this stage of life you need to go and compete, you need to spend couple years pushing your way upwards in the ladder and making a name for yourself in the fighter community. And if that feels like you, then go do it, absolutely. Don't listen to anyone in here but your heart ( I know that sounds cliche). Your intuition will tell you when you've had enough competing and are ready to start giving back. There is a process to follow and I don't think one can just jump straight to the end.

@Charlotte 1 cup a day is fine Charlotte Just make sure to time it well, outside of your main dose of iron. Just wondering though...have you been tested for low iron or diagnosed with anaemia?

@bejapuskas of course you can. A Remember that on plant-based diets, the number one problem so many people struggle with lack of energy and hunger is simply not eating enough. Also maybe look up Derek's video called "tips for new vegans" that goes through a lot of struggles people face on plant based diets. Meat and dairy are calorically dense foods and when you take those away and do not replace properly, your energy levels will suffer potentially triggering a cascade of signs & symptoms eventually leading to iron-deficiency or B12/B9 deficiency anaemias , hair loss, weight loss and anxiety. Lots of great tips by @Feel Good above, make sure to consider those as well. Good luck !!

probably the Intro into Systems Thinking and the whole spiral dynamics series was godly!

Check out some of Simnet Nutrition's videos on youtube. He has many titled "what i eat in a day". The guy is an epitome of thriving on plant based diet. Lots of tips on recipes, sauces, nutrition and working out by an extremely humble and likeable dude

@Alex90 @Feel Good noted, cheers guys btw even whole grains are not always as bad. Take for example a wheatgrass which is a baby wheat sprouted, it is super nutritious and a wheatgrass juice is incredibly cleansing and nutritious. Some people even pour it up their bums during enemas. But yeah, generally any processed grain will lose most of its value, while some of them may cause a lot of problems down the road if eaten too frequently

Great suggestion with the Vitamin C ! I'd also add caution with drinks heavy on tannins like green tea and coffee. They block some iron absorbtion. Green tea is great but plan its consumption wisely : ) as per coffee...well that is a controversial topic on itself. Also, I'd suggest you look up "Gojiman" on youtube and his video in relationship to "iron". The dude is super knowledgeable and makes very educated videos about plant-based nutrition. And finally, make sure that in case your iron is low, there is not an underlying condition such as gastrointestinal bleeding somewhere in the digestive tract.

Buckwheat , quinoa and black rice are still wholegrains dude, no need to go scaremongering about them. Wholegrains are unlikely to give you an autoimmune disease unless you have an inflammatory bowel disease, leaky gut, or something of that nature that couldresult in SIBO, the gut bacteria entering the blood circulation or landing on peritoneum and giving you systemic inflammation. As per the pesticides, you can decide to soak and sprout your whole grains to make it more digestible and nutritious which will effectively remove large chunk of the pesticides. Agreed on grains being acidic. Our bodies have powerful buffering systems to balance the PH of any meals but it is wise to control the intake of acidic foods which is pretty much every cooked food and food of animal origin.

@NicAndStuff I'd say it if its simply for the purpose of competing and becoming the top of the league, than maybe not so but if its to pass down the knowledge, teach people how to defend themselves, improve their flexibility, agility and stamina than absolutely. On the top of that, imagine you could combine a combat school with retreats to nature, early morning meditation followed by combat practice. Making it a deeper experience as it used to be in times of Samurai. Adding new elements to it like learning about the body, various herbs, ways to survive in nature etc...I can see a powerful life purpose right there my friend.

such a great post, love it ! Modern medicine is a wonder tool for those who have been hurt or in an accident, no question about it. Anyone who wants to see miracles happen should go sit in the emergency room for 3 hours after midnight.Being an ER surgeon is one of the most rewardig jobs because you clearly see success day in day out. The treatment of chronic diseases is where man has lost himself in thoughts, ideas, ego and delusion. These people have become so far-fetched from reality with years of academical brainwashing. It is great that more and more people are becoming interested in the alternative healing that alows the body to do what it has to instead of suppressing all its defense mechanisms.

There are tens of thousands debates exactly like this one all over 4 chan , quora digest, facebook, twitter..... What's the point folks? Nobody in this loop is changing their opinion anyways. Let's just all go our own way and burry the axe.

"War of Art" is quite good on procrastination but not sure it is what you are looking for. Perhaps Stephen Covey's "7 habits". It is a classic and full of wisdom and tips on productivity.

the exact version of mine is: "To study health and the body, to help people live longer, better and to thrive in life." That's the fancy title at least....., the reality is still being stuck in corporate job , figuring out next steps and following a lucky star
