Casually Explained: Being Healthy

There can't be 3500 calories in a pound of body fat because the maths doesn't add up, this is just one of those phrases that gets chucked around like the oh-so-stupid phrase "Muscle weighs more than fat" (But how MUCH muscle or fat are you talking about here?? A pound of fat weighs the same as a pound of muscle dummy!!). 1 gram of fat equals 9 calories, therefore a pound of fat contains 4077 calories.

So sad that detoxifying credit is given to these nonsense products rather the liver and kidneys.

Wait, blueberries under tongue ????

you sleep until noon, that does not matter because technically the first meal of the day IS your breakfast, if you had food at 2pm thats your breakfast

The average adult woman burn about 1600-1900 calories just being alive with their basic metabolic rate (bmr) and average adult man about 2000-2300 I think, so there’s a difference with what gender you are❤

Overnight oats are delicious! I love peanut butter and raspberry oatmeal. Recipe I do:
- 1/2 cup oats
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional)
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- pinch of salt

Toppings:
- 1/4 cup toasted walnuts (toasted bc raw is bitter)
- 1/4-1/2 cup frozen raspberries
- 2-4 tbsp peanut butter
- 1 tbsp of chia seeds (makes for great crunch sprinkled on top)
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (or honey, white sugar, just a sweetener)
- 1 or 1/2 of a banana (optional)

I mix up the oats, milk, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and pinch of salt together and set it in the fridge overnight. Then, in the morning, I get a bowl and add my raspberries in there. I thaw them in the microwave for about a minute and a half. Then I add my peanut butter into the raspberries as it's easier to mix this way. Then I add some maple syrup, mix some more, add my oats, and mix that all together. Then add the toasted walnuts on top as well as the chia seeds and, optionally, a sliced banana.

It tastes like a fancy peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Detoxification is real. That blueberry smoothie contains compounds that signal liver cells to upregulate detoxification pathways.

What about roids? :DD

The way breakfast became the "most importent meal of the day" is actually really interesting. Long story short this dude wanted to sell more of his brand of bacon and had a doctor come up with a bs report saying that you should always eat breakfast because blah blah blah, then he branded bacon as a high in protein and nutrience food "perfect for breakfast" thus making more moneyyyyy. So skip breakfast and fight the patriarchy ig

Talking about the gym is why I rock climb. You get to feel like spider man, you fall off things and its fun, and then you are exhausted and sore but it was fun. Unlike going to the gym which is all pain and no fun.

pop in a blueberry just like a senzu bean!!!! tf bro hahaha

Once your heart eventually recovers you will have more love to give 💯

Lime and/or salt has helped me become accustomed to eating raw veggies on whim, for lunch I had a whole beet and green pepper, ‘‘twas delicious

wheres the raw food

I go on a diet called "eating whatever mommy makes".

My boyfriend literally suggested doing a juice cleanse together & I asked him “you mean what my liver does for me everyday?” & his real response was “this would be extra, like a double cleanse”. Oh honey. No. I have tried keto, it was awful.

"gotta go at a moderate pace for a sustained period of time" 🤣

two things he skipped is N.E.A.T. (just look it up) and that both carbs and protein do have 4 calories per gram but carbs take less energy for your body to digest. And protein takes more energy to digest. So your body literally consumes calories to absorb the calories, and it consumes more calories to absorb protein than carbs. So carbs are a bit more calorie dense.

You can imagine my grandma's face when I told her I skip both breakfast and lunch lol
It works tho

There is a scientific proof about brekky being the most important meal of the day. My mum said so when I was like 5 or 6 or so. And she said if I skip bfast I'll have a tummy ache. Naturally, being the rebel I still am, I skipped the bfast. And guess what, I got a tummy ache soon after. Coincidence? I doubt it. Check mate, atheist

Putting oil in a Tesla wouldn’t be good In anyway

"Brought back Steve Irwin with a smoothie" Too flippant for me.

I miss Steve Irwin..

24 pack of beer a day keeps training away

PLZ THE PINTEREST CALLED ME OUT

No joke, ever since I learned that the body starts to burn fat around 12 hours after your last meal I've been passing off my destroyed sleep schedule as a way for me to do intermittent fasting.

Is smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol considered vegetarian? If so, I must be vegetarian. And if being a vegetarian is considered healthy, I must be a very healthy man.

I love the intermittent fasting joke "in reality I just wake up at noon" lmfao

I neeeeeeeeeeed that sonic t-shirt! Plz make it!

fat is 7, ethanol is 9. you got it switched

Saw this vid when it came out and decided to lose weight. 4 years later and im 100lbs lighter. Neat how a little knowledge can change your life👌

I went KETO and added hardcor at the GYM and lost 190 pounds

Too much fruit can give you diabetes.

I get so triggered when people say they don't want to get too bulky. That's like saying "I can't download call of duty, I don't want to become a pro videogame player"

The importance of breakfast really boils down to your lifestyle. If u an early bird then it's good.

that banana was pretty chill ngl

The preferred fuel source for the body is fat. Just have plenty of healthy fat with meat and you’re straight.

As someone who does intermittent fasting I can confirm we eat plates with a big red cross on them

I call BS on the "limited food choices" for vegetarianism. The only things which are limited are meat and fish. I can make a different vegetarian meal every day for a year and still have thousands of meals left to try. This week: Cheese & Lentil Bake with Roasted Vegetables & Gravy, Sag Aloo with Fresh Onion Chutney and Mint Raitha; Linguini Napoli with Parmesan & Salad; Chilli con Veggy with Plain Yoghourt, Rice & Salad; Root Vegetable & Barley Stew with Stir-Fried Herby Courgettes; Cheesy Coleslaw and Salad Wraps; Stir-Fied Vegetables with Plum Sauce & Noodles; Baked Potato with Cheese and Garlic Beans; Spanish Chickpea and Potato Stew ... limited choices, my eye.

Pauline the father of vitamin C mega dose faked his data and died of cancer claimin mega dose of Vit C would cure cancer. He was taking 5000 mg per day.

I think breakfast is the most important meal based on what you got planned for the day and or what job you do. If you work a physical job or plan to do an intense workout you should probably eat breakfast. If you job also requires focus you should eat breakfast

People don't skip breakfast so their metabolism doesn't slow down, that's why they say skipping lunch is ok

oh yeah, i forgot to mention that plant based diets aren't actually as sustainable as people think due to how much we rely on livestock to feed us and the plants. especially since livestock can be raised on land where you can't grow crops and they can turn various plants which are inedible to us (like grass) into a good source of protein, fat and other nutrients.
all this falls more under the agriculture side of things, but i find it important to bring up how it's just as nuanced as nutrition
