7 Foods to Avoid

today we're going to talk about the seven foods that you must avoid as well as the ones that you should replace them with when I'm at the grocery store I'll see people putting these Foods in the cart all the time and I just want to walk up to them and tell them don't eat that today we're going to tell you why so let's dive in with the first one liquid sugar not just soda talking about juice too both of these products are just as bad they both have roughly the same amount of sugar the juice

has a little more sugar and it is true that some of the soda out there has the high fructose corn syrup and that's actually worse than the sugar in the fruit but not by much sometimes even with orange juice they have to concentrate sometimes they store it up to a year in this huge container before they ship it and reconstitute it by adding water and put it on the Shelf this stuff is like liquid candy or liquid sugar it's not natural it's a massive amount of refined carbohydrate and sugar and without the protection of all

the nutrients that are extracted from the fruit juice and the fruit juice is so refined and so concentrated with sugar without nutrients like vitamins and minerals that actually help you process and digest the sugar when you consume either a soda or a juice you're really depleting your body of the reserves because the amount of damage that processing that fuel goes through if you want a good alternative other than just drinking water you can do Zia that's real popular it's one that I keep around the house for um people that come by I I I don't

consume a lot of it it's too sweet for me but at least it doesn't have all this other crap in it number two this type of cheese right here pasteurized cheese product if a product has less than 51% of it cheese they can't call it cheese they have to call it something else processed cheese cheese food or pasteurize cheese product in fact in Europe they definitely don't even use the word cheese if something doesn't have over 51% cheese only America so why would I tell you to avoid this uh wonderful thing I don't know if

you call it food that will melt easily on your nachos well let's take a look at the ingredients number one we have skim milk canola oil milk protein concentrate modified food starch modified food starch is just more corn starch but it could be coming from another starch and just so you know modified food starch is sugar then they add some whey protein maltodextrin more preservatives a tremendous amount of salt there is zero cheese but they still call it a pasteurized cheese product amazing they do advertise it melts better than cheddar cheese and guess what you

don't have to refrigerate it wow what does that tell you number three protein bars most of the protein bars out there worse than candy bars even the ones that claim to be low carb like the Ain bars if you ever read the ingredients you will be shocked this concept of like wow it's a protein bar you're getting all this protein you're getting some protein but you're getting a plant-based protein it's usually soy protein isolate sometimes they add casine or concentrated milk protein the cheapest type of protein you could possibly imagine and really is that the

soy protein they process it and make it with you know solvents like hexane and other chemicals because if you think about it how are they going to get the isolated protein out of that soybean the amount of sugar in these protein bars are just crazy high with a brief scan I found between 30 G to 47 G per bar now that's not even counting all the hidden starches that also are sugar as well they usually don't even use cane sugar it's probably too expensive they use rice syrup tapioca syrup corn syrup these are just so

highly processed many of them have the vegetable oils which are the seed oils which is just another common alter processed food ingredient and I'm talking about in The Cliff Bars Kine bars Luna bars which I'm going to read off right now from the label protein grain blend soy protein isolate rolled oats rice flour roasted soybeans soy flour brown rice syrup peanuts then we get some cane suger wow a little peanut butter in there chory fiber syrup vegetable glycerin peanut flour Palm kernel solids sunflower and soybean oil natural flavors and it has 23 g of carbohydrates

and 12 gram of fiber so it's very very high in fiber but these fibers are not not like vegetable fibers they're the junk food fibers beware of them because when you consume them you're going to bloat you're going to have intestinal pain it's coming from that and then you have uh the Quest Bar there's one ingredient I need to mention ISO Malto Alo saccharides it's advertised as a 100% natural Prebiotic I'll tell you right now I don't care if it's a Prebiotic it's basically a sugar and it's going to raise your blood sugar and then

they also add sucralose which is made from a Chlor compound it's going to disrupt your uh gastrointestinal area it's been known to increase the risk of insulin resistance so avoid these protein bars they're made with the cheapest ingredient I've really had a hard time finding any that I even liked so I would recommend getting your protein if you wanted a protein to go bring some boiled eggs maybe some cheese dehydrated meat number four seed oil mayonnaise 99% of all the mayonnaise that you see on the Shelf if you look at the ingredients you will see

the first first ingredient being soy oil soy oil is a seed oil and it is highly processed goes through 10 chemical changes they have to use solvents like hexane to extract certain things they have to use high Heats they have to take the odor out they have to bleach it they have to decolorize it de gum it and after they completely alter it they put it in this bottle so when you consume something like this you are consuming something that is highly INF inflammatory that's very very heavy on the Omega 6 and very low if

any on the omega3 out of all of the oil that people consume in the United States over 55% of it is in the form of soy oil 95% of that is GMO soy that means it's been sprayed with glyphosate which is an herbicide it's the most widely consumed vegetable oil in the United States and other parts of the world as well a lot of people have an allergy to it and they don't realize that soya is hidden in so many different foods in one study soy oil created more obesity and more diabetes than fructose it

also has been linked to a fatty liver sometimes you read the ingredients with mayonnaise and you'll see that it's a olive oil mayonnaise and then you actually read the back label and you find out most of this product is soy with just a little bit of olive oil so you have to kind of uh hunt and Peck for alternatives to this that I have found that don't have soy oil these are made with avocado oil which is so much better you have the Primal kitchen brand and then you have another brand called chosen number five

sweetened and flavored yogurt 70% of all yogurt that people buy is this sweetened flavored yogurt and if you actually do the calculation on the back of the label you will find there is more sugar per ounce in the sweet and flavored yogurt than there is an ice cream and of course if you read the label it help have artificial colorings artificial flavorings red dye number 40 which so many children are sensitive to one thing you have to realize about when you consume a food high in sugar it's going to support the pathogens in your gut

it's not going to support the friendly microbes so here you are consuming a yogurt thinking you're getting a probiotic when in fact you're just supporting the bad guys not the good bacteria so this is just a gimmick to get you to think that you're getting something that's going to help your gut and realize that a lot of these yogurts will say low fat and they just replace it with higher sugar sometimes it'll say real fruit but it's like only like 1% fruit in the form of some Jam that they put in there and of course

as a thickening agent they add corn starch now cornstarch is not going to be in the area of sugars even though it acts like a sugar it's going to be in the total carbohydrate as a starch but it won't be listed as a starch it won't say starch but what you have to realize is that corn starch will act like sugar in fact even worse than sugar on the glycemic index it's going to just spike your sugar and the main purpose of this cornstarch is purely a filler to add more bulk to the product the

only benefit of that yogurt is the calcium the problem is with all that Sugar it's going to prevent you from absorbing that little bit of calcium that's now going to be nullified so I would highly recommend to consume plain whole fat grass-fed yogurt from A2 protein cows okay it's a certain type of protein now I also consume organic Bulgarian yogurt I like that but my ideal type of yogurt is not even a yogurt it's a kefir I like the whole fat kefir from grass-fed cows or grass-fed sheep or goat and then if you want to

just add some berries to it just add actual berries and blend it it's delicious and definitely don't give your kids the sweet and flavored yogurt it's not going to help them number six soy protein I already mentioned this ingredient but I wanted to bring it up as a category because it's in so many foods it's a very cheap protein it's going to mess up your gut your liver probably because it has traces of hexane we don't know for sure but it's very refined isolated product that is not natural to consume that not to mention being

GMO consume real protein meat eggs Fish seafood and the last one I'm going to talk about number seven is the modified starches I already mentioned this as well but I wanted to talk about it as a category of food because it's not really even a food it really was a byproduct of Industry someone had this idea like oh let's see I tell you what you know what we could do we could put this starch in the food supply right because it's so cheap and its primary goal is that it's a filler realize the starch is

a chain of sugars but it's not sweet but it will definitely act like sugar in fact worse than sugar cuz it really will spike your blood sugar the modified starches was a byproduct of the Corn Sy industry as well so someone said hey let's just put this in food and create an industry around it which they did because now it's a 12 billion industry an average consumer consumes 30 lbs of modified starch every single year and there's over 50 different names to camouflage the starch not going to go through all 50 but multitran modifi food

starch and to make it you have to go through 10 chemical processes you have to gum it take the color out bleach it and the FDA allows up to 55% of it to be in a food product but you can't go over 55% Doritos is 53% modified starch and yes it will cause insulin resistance I also noticed when I was looking at different cauliflower crust for pizza every one of them had this modified food starch or tapioca flour or starch it's in soups BAC Goods Meats everything and its primary goal is to add bulk because

it's just a filler if you wanted a starch do it like a natural starch butternut squash beets plantains or even if you want to give a starch to your child give them like purple or red potatoes that's a major step up from the modified food starch
