Welcome to fit to be real and a little extra in the last day of Carly's life
She is on my last nerve right now. Apparently I'm making too much noise
She was like let me do all the things I'm not allowed to do to make noise into the microphone
And I'm gonna do them while you say okay ready go
She picked up her coffee mug to take a sip and I pressed record I
Worst I'm done
I'm
Laughing because I laughed really hard at it, and she did not find it funny. It's like I look really good right now
what
Happy day everyone oh my god Victoria needs a nap when she's 36
She's gonna start napping and that's all that would be so nice. You just need like a 20 minute siesta
That's the max you're supposed to do really 20 minutes anything more than that is when you wake up
And you're like it doesn't feel better. Yeah, when you take a long nap, and then you're like I feel like I'm more tired
Yeah, 20 minutes you don't get into the REM cycle, but you take like a good rest
So they've just learned something already in the first couple minutes
So that might be the max for today. So anything else is extra right enjoy the microphone banging and shifting and slurping
That's that's from our favorite co-host Carly
So we're talking about two different things today, but also they're the same
inflammation and sugar woo-hoo because it is
Halloween time mm-hmm and
They go hand-in-hand and if you are anything like I think the majority of the people at least in the United States
You like a good Halloween candy snack
I know what's hard for me sometimes is just you know you have the bowls of candy out and they're the minis and
And so you grab like a mini three musketeer or a mini milky way because you're like oh my gosh
They're so small, but then you do that eight times a day and
You might as well just have an enormous milky way and it's addicting and that's what we're gonna talk about today with sugar
I do like a musketeer so do I I like them frozen if you put them in the freezer. Oh my gosh
They're so good. I thought that was just Reese's Cups. No, what you put milky way three musketeers
You're gonna chip your teeth. No, it's they don't freeze all the way through. Is this a dentist's trick?
But if you have them around the house during this season because you're gonna have say I don't do that I
Do why well? We just had a Halloween party and I had candy all over the house for the kids to grab and it's out
What do what do I do with it? Put it away put it away
Throw throw it out when the party's over. I can't do that
I'm like mom instilled in us that there are people starving and I cannot throw food out. I guarantee
They don't want the processed American sugar that other countries have banned. That's true
We are the only country
That like McDonald's is is frightening. We really look at the ingredients list people the France has banned it
All of Europe actually think has banned
Meatless meat in McDonald's. Yeah the ingrate even the french fries. Wait, did you hear about fruit loops?
There's like a protest going on about fruit loops in the United States because fruit loops cereal has
Cancer carcinogens in them. Yeah, but I know that they say that for a lot of
Food and stuff and a lot of candy and a lot of kids foods
This one really has an enormous amount of it and there are people saying get it off the shelves like I have stopped buying that
Well, there's formaldehyde in cinnamon toast crunch. That's what you put in dead bodies to keep them preserved
Isn't that crazy, but it's in it read the box like that word is right there. It's not shocking to me
I just saw something
What is the red five or the yeah red five? Yeah, I don't know for like skittles and M&Ms like that the guy the dye
Red five. Yeah, it comes from bugs
That's crushed up bugs
What mm-hmm? It's a breakdown of this type of parasite
Oh, and it crushed up gives this red
Color color and that's disgusting used to dye
Swedish fish stop Swedish fish is like my favorite candy of all time about Swedish fish
What did I say speed is this?
This is going for method swish fish fish the when you said red
Five I was thinking yellow five and you remember when you're in grade school and you're like, oh boys
You can't eat the yellow ones because then you won't be able to have kids
Didn't you ever see that I?
Have never not known what you're talking about more and we can scroll back to all the times
I've never known what you were talking about
Boys can't have kids because they eat yellow food the yellow starburst and the yellow skittles and the yellow
I mean because of the yellow five well yellow fives and everything right but like
Used to be like the boys used to say no, I don't want the yellow one
I don't want the yellow one or to be funny. They'd be like give me the yellow one. I don't want kids so funny
That those are the kind of jokes we made in the 90s. Oh my god. I did not make that joke
Well, I
Wonder if that's from yellow parasites. I don't know. Maybe it's just something that I
I we made up probably had a parasite once
No, a tapeworm. No, I wish that
They thought I had a parasite. Oh, I took too many birth control pills. Oh, right, right, right, right
You were the power that was the best got it
I still remember it as you had a tape because they kept trying to tell me that I did and they just couldn't find it and then
Years later we realized oh wait, I was taking too many birth control pills at a time for six months
And it was you were told to I was told to I was told to by a doctor that is no longer a doctor anymore
by the way
But I ended up in the hospital and they kept saying oh because I was throwing up all she should run off of the train in New York
To throw up in the trash can and then give back on the train to try to make her destination college
destination college and
Yeah, it was cuz I was taking too many birth control pills a day
Isn't that I may kept saying oh no you have a parasite so I landed in the hospital obviously my god
She smelled so bad. I know
My insides were eating me. I mean, yeah, but you like thank God
Andrew she got a gift every day. He was next to me. Yeah, but he's he's still here
He's still here. We would have to take
Seconds to leave the room to breathe and then go back to be like Carly you're okay
You're you'll be okay, and then we would take full breaths out in the hallway. Oh
He was like, you know it we should have three kids
We should do this for like 20 years so far
Poor guy, but I didn't have a parasite never mind that has nothing to do with what we're talking about, but let's get into it
I
Take your last sniff
I'm Victoria. Hey guys, I'm Carly and I'm 39 believe it or not
She hasn't had any sugar today. No, I'm off the sauce I
As of yesterday well yes as of yesterday because Victoria and I just had this conversation
and it's interesting that we're doing this because I said I
Need to get all this out of my house because I am off the sauce. I am sick of feeling tired low energy
Bloated. Yeah, you don't look great
I'm sick of feeling tired
Good
Brain fog clearly yeah, so I'm off the sauce of sugar and I just I've decided I need to have willpower tell the people like what?
You're on the sauce looks like what does that mean like what were you doing?
Oh, I would just like I said I would be like oh there's a little mini twix
I'll have one of those and then like later. I'll have another one or like I
Would grab a handful of chocolate chips, but see I would gain 10 pounds in a week
It's you're not doing that. Well, yeah, I don't do it every day
But when I do when I do do it. Oh my god, it's like a it snowballs
Throughout the day. I'm like I only had like a couple chocolate chips
I can have some more later or I only had one little candy bar couple chocolate chips. You're a monster
Disgusting I'll just like grab or I'll like
Have a Oreo you all know I like Oreo cookies. I'll have an Oreo cookie and be like
Oh, I only had one like an hour later
I'll have another one an hour later. I'll have another one and then it's like a snowball effect
Wait, I had a client this morning. So Kathy and we were talking about snacks and you know bed habits
Whatever and she was like, you know like Carly and her Oreos
Her sleeve of Oreos, but that's what it turns into. I was like fact. We all do that. Thanks Kathy. Thanks for calling me out
It's the guitarist Jean
It's actually yes, but we're gonna talk about why that happens because sugar is a drug
Oh, well sure. Yeah, so we are gonna talk about how it's not just in my jeans, but it will affect my jeans. Yeah
Do you see what I do there? G E N E S and then G
We all took a second and then you continue to explain it
brain fog is a
symptom of inflammation
So we were thinking about what to talk about today and because that is the forefront of our mind
I've also I agree. I'm not necessarily off the sauce. I'm off all the sauces. Oh
Like I have been going out to eat. I have been messing up with my routine. I've been
Adding new things into my diet. Yeah, and not necessarily eliminating other things. I'm all I'm a mess
You're all over the place right now and I have gained some weight back and but I don't even care about the weight gain
We talk about this a lot. Yeah, I care about feeling bloated when I wake up in the morning
I feel gross. I feel totally inflamed when you look at your fingers and you're like, whoa, I can't take my rings off or
Cool like it feels different to try to pull my pants up over my little foop. Yeah
You all know I'm don't even play you all know it's such a horrible feeling to wake up like that horrible because then it's like
Yeah, let's start the day. Yeah
I feel horrible and it's sort of like I work so hard and I work out so hard and I work
Doesn't matter so hard eating well until a certain point and then I go off. Yeah my eating really badly and then it's like
What's the point so I continue it and then you wake up feeling gross and we do doing it again talk about this a lot
It's just a reoccurring
Cycle it just is and I know for a fact it's like this for so many people
So that's why I have no problems talking about this yet again
for our
90-second episode
Billy just wrote in a text message why I can't remember but he wrote in a group thread with you me and mom and
Said you can't outrun a poor diet. Oh, yeah
Meaning you can't get healthy because you're working out so much
If you're eating like crap, right? So you cannot overwork a bad
habit and so
That's I think where we are in two different ways for some reason you're eating who musketeers are not getting weight
So no, I am but that's the thing like that. I I mean I am I'm gaining it in the areas that I can see
Maybe others can't see but I can feel it and my body is changing because I your brain
Yeah, you're gaining it in your brain. You know, I'm gonna keep doing it then. Yeah
Welcome to our family chats. That was our brother Billy saying you can't outrun a bad diet
Shut up shut up
So
Inflammation sugar is a big inflammatory food
Big one but inflammation as a whole is a defense mechanism any inflammation that your body has if you're like wow
I'm really inflamed in my fingers a row. I just feel inflamed in my one muscle and the calf muscle
Why it's because it's sending defense. Yeah to something. Yeah, so it's something to think about when you're feeling
Bloated and inflamed your body is asking for help your body's like trying to defend it from a predator and
It's on the defense, right?
So why what are you doing? Like what are you putting in your body that your body's trying to like help you?
Right, that's what inflammation is and I never thought about it that way and I was like, oh my god
It's trying to save me for me
Which is like so amazing so horrible like why do we do that?
so it's our body's defense system but
anti-inflammatory foods
Help keep that inflammation down not necessarily like we want to have our defenses down, right?
But we want to keep our body from having to send inflammation, right? And there's a lot of foods, you know
That can help with that because inflammation leads to health issues other than just feeling bloated. It's like type 2 diabetes
Oh, yeah, I mean there's so many things right, right? Yeah, like in that talk about horrible inflammation
Arthritis. Oh my god
So and of course the worst thing we've talked about that gets inflamed. We did a whole episode on it the heart
Yeah, so cardiovascular disease so sugar is a big factor to all that because it adds fat and
adds inflammation via the fat and
It's saturated fats and trans fats not just like avocado fat. Yeah, no, it's the bad fats
So we're gonna talk about all it and help you much of it
Also inflammation gives brain fog. I'm gonna say it again. It's when you make those really stupid comments at work
You're like, ooh
No one reacted. I have said that
That's like me every day. Oh, I forgot to do all of the things on the list that I didn't make
It's also Carly every day
So we're really gonna trip up your nervous system here
We're gonna give you two different episodes at the same time
And we're gonna alternate facts so that your brain has to really work hard. That's like a good idea to both of us
You have to really pay attention. Yeah, so I'm gonna be giving you foods to eat to keep the body in an anti-inflammatory
functioning system and
I am gonna tell you some weird things that sugar does to your body. This is just stay with it people
So the first anti-inflammatory is beans because it's high fiber. Ah
And it keeps the butt. Are you okay?
Is that alright?
Yeah, that's great. It it's fiber and it prevents blood sugar spikes and that's a big factor when it comes to
inflammatory messengers throughout the body. So beans all types of beans
So, you know, I'm gonna sing it. Do you want me to do it? Do it? Do it? Do it? Do it?
Beans, beans, the musical fruit the more you eat the more you do the more you do the better you feel so eat your beans at every meal
Why was that the quietest you've ever been in the history of you? I was trying to rap
that what?
What? Did it not come across? It sounded like you were embarrassed to say too. No, I was trying to rap
I I've been watching a lot of like Eminem recently and I was trying to like
Well, that didn't sound like Eminem. I hate to tell you
Next one one of the weird things sugar does to your body is it makes your organs fat?
That's super weird. No, I'm sure you guys all know this and it's interesting because one of the
one of the statistics is
Americans eat
30 pounds of sugar every year over the limit of what we should be so like we're supposed to have like five
Teaspoons of sugar a day that's added sugar not like fruit
You know pineapple whatever the good sugar does the fruit. Thank you. You're welcome grapes. You all know I love grapes
We eat on average now. This isn't everybody
22
teaspoons of sugar over the limit a day. Isn't that just one soda?
Like oh, yeah something like 20 plus teaspoons in one like coke or so imagine if you had more than that
But like if you're having a coke and then you eat other things. Oh my god. I know oh my god
Just say if you have two coax every single day and that's where that 130 pounds over the limit of what we should be
Intaking and 22 teaspoons over the limit every single day. Yeah, that's a lot. That's a lot. So, you know over time
Those added sugar it it really triggers your liver to store fat around your organs which in turn goes to diabetes and
It's it's just some people are born with diabetes and I understand that there's no way to get around it a lot of Americans a lot of us
Cause it we are the cause. Yes. Yeah, so it's creating fat around your organs unnecessary fat
It is the unwanted unnecessary fat. So if you can stick to the five tape a
Table spoons now five teaspoons a day. I mean that's the healthy the healthy sugar. Yeah
Unless you're off the sauce unless you're off the sauce, but but I'm getting sugar in different ways. You should you need it
I'm just not getting added sugar processor processor. Yeah
All right anti-inflammatory foods to save the day
avocados and sweet potatoes
Can you say avocados again avocados?
That was like the Delcoist of the Delco avocados
Avocado
Avocado and sweet potato. They have inflammation
Fighting antioxidants. No, yeah, that's true. They do say it in English. That was English
But they've got good antioxidants to keep the body
I'm not inflamed sweet potatoes alone have
Something in the color and that's where the antioxidants come from so not just like a regular potato
But a sweet potato the orange is really important. I love sweet potatoes. Yeah
Dad does it with spicy mustard Dijon. Spice. No. Yeah spicy mustard same thing. No very different
Great poop all great
Do you remember those commercials? Yes, and he'd roll up with the limo and roll down the window
It'd be like great poop all great boom pole and he has a like a tiny little spoon
Mm-hmm. All right, so just eat those, you know, you know
Love it. Okay next one sugar creates tense blood vessels
So tense arteries are when the sugar
gets hard
It closes the artery walls and it puts you on a straight path to high blood pressure and ultimately
Creates a stroke or heart attack so the more sugar the more it's gonna clog those arteries and make it hard for the blood flow
so it really does create tense blood vessels and
You know, nobody wants those and results those are two not really great things that you don't want a stroke heart attack
So just
Limit your sugar intake. I'm gonna say that after everyone. Cool. Cool. Yeah
Listen to this when you go to bed
I don't need it. Love it. However do eat this citrus fruit. I don't need enough
Citrus well when I think of citrus fruit, I don't like oranges. I don't like oranges either. I like grapefruit
Yeah, I I think I OD'd on grapefruit when we were on a diet that you could only eat grapefruit
It was like 20 years ago. I know and I like OD'd on it. Wow
That's overdosed
Cool, cool, cool. I
I like a citrus. It also goes under the umbrella of lemon and lime
Okay, I like this you thought a little too hard about that well, I don't think I would be like downing some limes
Just squeezing it into your water. Yeah, I'm like thinking about eating chopping it up and just taking a bite
I was thinking about eating
Okay, citrus fruits contain the same thing that's in the sweet potato a polyphenol polyphenol
Polyphenol
All of them sound good. They help turn off the inflammation switch is what is the best way to describe it
So like if we have a switch that our bodies like defense mode switch on and someone flips the switch and then it's like inflammation inflammation inflammation
these
Polyphenols polyphenol, that's none of this is right. I love it. Cool
They citrus fruits keep the switch off where danger doesn't happen right because you don't need the danger to be happening
There's nothing that's inflamed. I really enjoy the way you're describing it so that I understand
I'm picturing spaceballs on my head. Yeah, spaceballs. What a good movie. I'm not gonna lie
When they're all freaking out in the spaceship. Yes, it's like danger, you know, there you go
No, that makes sense though. So the citrus fruits help that which is also what's in that color of the sweet potato. Oh
These polyphenols. Yeah, polyphenols. No, just keep saying it different way. I am I am just final. Let us know if we're wrong
All right, sugar turns you into a junkie. I
Know I know but listen
Sugar's a drug
It drug it really is it is addictive and it triggers the release of chemicals that set off the brain's pleasure center
So when you immediately have sugar, of course, it makes you so happy and then what does it do right after that?
Makes you crave more
What do you do? Sure, you go get more until your tolerance just like alcohol and anything else
Gets bigger and bigger and bigger. So your body craves more sugar more sugar. You're not that that little switch that Victoria just talked about
You have a sugar switch
So that happy sugar switch will turn on but you're gonna need more of it for it to be able to turn on eventually
So it it really and it gives you anxiety if it's taken away. Well, it's like the
Tolerance, yeah, your tolerance goes up. So you need more and then when you don't have it. What do you want?
That's all you want. Yeah, if somebody's taking like I'm saying about my kids all the time
Like somebody takes their video games away. They throw a fit a tantrum because somebody took it away. What does that mean?
You're addicted. So you have to for me. I
Have to take it away for myself like I got to get it out of the house
Because the temptation is too much. Oh, yeah for me to be able to handle, right?
So just like a drug which it is you got to get it out because it turns you into an animal that needs it
You know, it's horrible. All right anti-inflammatory and I'm really happy about this one because I really like this one
Okay extra virgin olive oil. I
Love all the way so do I but I didn't think that that was an anti-inflammatory
So it's a healthy fats like one of the healthiest yeah, you can eat which we do know and I think we've talked about that before
It's richness in the monosaturated fats, which is why it's the healthiest fat. Mm-hmm, but there's an antioxidant
Found in olive oil that's been compared to the anti-inflammatory properties of ibuprofen in olive oil
Everyone take a moment of silence for whatever sound just came out of Carly's mouth
I think the Greeks got it right then. Yeah, right
Studies show that olive oil extra virgin olive oil. You would that's a
It reduced the risk of heart disease cancer
dementia or dying from dementia specifically and
It's a staple in the Mediterranean diet and if you what's it called the blue zone the blue zone
There's like a blue zone. It's like the healthiest places in the world. Oh, okay live in this zone
Uh-huh Mediterranean diet, right is that this part of that zone Andrew was told to eat a Mediterranean diet by his doctor
I mean, it's it's just healthy fats meat and vegetables. It's nothing outlandish and like tricky, right?
It's just eat like nuts and yeah, yeah nuts. Well nuts is another anti-inflammatory food
You just stole my next one. I'm just gonna do it. Okay. Yeah, do it nuts are super super good
The problem with nuts though is that just like
Anything else if you don't measure it out, you could overeat nuts. I do it all the time
Oh, so do I you just get a handful of nuts and then another handful of nuts and then handfuls already too many right?
I know like a quarter cup is usually the serving size of any any nut no matter if it's like a huge walnut or like a tiny almond
Why are you laughing?
Are you not 39?
Not when I look in the mirror
Nuts
contain protein which helps blood sugar levels
Continue to be like stabilized. So they prevent me see if I can get this right they prevent
Excess insulin oh
Right, so it's connected to everything that we're talking about. So that's why they're good, but if you overeat
nuts
They can go into the fat department and not like the good right. I mean that's like anything in moderation. Yeah, if you think of like
If you think of your body having these empty boxes like these empty compartments and when you take in a food
Like you eat an apple and the apple gets dropped into the fruit and good sugar compartment
And then you eat a piece of chicken and it goes into the protein box, right?
And then you eat, you know avocado the good fat the good fat and then you eat the nuts and you're like, okay
Well, this is going into good fat and some of them are gonna go into protein
but now you've eaten too many nuts and
Those boxes can't be filled anymore. So it just goes into bad fat into bad fat
Yeah, like if you think of how you're eating into going to those compartments. That's how overeating
It just the only other option for it to go is to go into the fat box. This is a perfect
Segway into my next one. Oh good. We're gonna talk about this. It's called sugar turns you into a ravenous animal
Why I'll tell you it makes you feel hungry sugar makes you feel hungry
You've heard the term empty calories. Yeah, they
They sugar has a ton of calories and it doesn't make you feel full and they're empty like Carly's emotional box
That's so true it's never gonna get filled up
My therapist is crying somewhere
So listen, here's the thing she's ever seen those commercials that say like they're for popsicles and it's like a kid saying
Hey mom, look, there's no high-fructose corn syrup in this, you know, like whatever and you're you don't really think about it
You know the words but you don't really
Doesn't think about it
Yeah, well basically you can eat sugar sugar sugar sugar sugar and still say I'm starving and more sugar makes you more hungry
So those boxes Victoria was just talking about all that sugar. You think is going into one box is going into the
Bad fat box, right? So if you just had a handful of nuts
That would make you feel full it would shut the option
Correct fill up any box because you wouldn't be eating so fructose like high fructose
Corn syrup that's in a lot of kids foods
I think everything like so many things you don't even realize it messes with your hormones it messes with your insulin
That's why diabetics have a hard time with it. It messes with your
Leptin now I know Victoria's talked about this before and it means that your body feels hungry even when you're overeating
Yeah, so that's why it's so important that you take into account how much sugar you're eating and that's how you overeat
Yeah, it's in bread. It's in soma it's in pasta
It's in things that we think are quote-unquote harmless
that
The FDA has approved up. I just watched it so weird
I just watched this this morning and I saved it because I was gonna send it to you and I was gonna post it
Yeah, because it's so interesting and it was a woman on the Jay Shetty podcast
Talking about how years ago and she said the date so I'm not gonna try to be specific here
But the LA Times had this huge spread of an article, you know how they take up like a few pages
Mm-hmm, it's all like one article. Yes. It's like it was a big deal basically and it was how
Potato chips like lays or hers any type of potato chip they were trying to figure out and this when I say years ago it was like
Before we know things that we know now right so in reading it now
I think we would all be horrified to be like wow they put this out for the world to read
But nobody knew any better to know that it was like a trigger or a danger and
Our whole article was about how they were trying to find a chemical to coat and make these potato chips
That kept people hungry
So but there were two things it was to keep them
one chemical was to keep them salty and
taste good and
keep
Them preserved so that they really go bad. They can't go bad. Yeah
like a
Genetically modified type of chemical and then the second one
They were trying to figure out was how to keep the potato chip light so that the hand can keep going in the bag and
Not make the stomach feel full so there is a chemical on these foods that quite literally is meant and
Produced to keep you eating and keep you hungry
So that you buy more so that you buy more that's insane and it was like
People were just leisurely reading about it because we didn't know any better. Yeah, and
And now it's nothing's changed. That's how they make potatoes right right like it's not like they stopped doing that
No, they just figured out what the the genetically modified chemical is they just figured it out. I think that the
I guess yes, well, I am learning about that right now. My algorithm is all about conspiracy theories right now, but
on Instagram the
phrase when we were kids that had the rainbow and the star and it was like the more you know, you know
That really is the truth like I loved when that commercial would come on like after reading rainbow or something reading rainbow
reading rainbow
Very good. Thank you. I
Think about that now because if you don't know and you're uninformed you you just go along your life and
You don't know things. Oh
But but now we're I think not that we're not any smarter than before but there's
The material is out there for us to read or know about or watch on a documentary
It's there. It's almost on you if you don't know, right exactly. It's online. It's on social media
It's
It's if you're avoiding it or not if you don't want to know about it
You can avoid it if your heads in the hay
If you're an ostrich and your heads in the hay
Yes
But yeah, that's that's the truth the more you know
But then I think the reason why people put their head in the sand, whatever
Is that it's so overwhelming all of the bad things that are out there that our government allows and that other countries don't allow
I eat specifically food food. Yeah, and that like red dyes and everything and like it's been studied that it leads to autism
Right and if you eat a lot of it while you're pregnant like you're already starting that process
Or if you eat a lot as a kid and then of course there are the like boomers that are like we ate
Everything we smoked we drank and nothing, you know sometimes nothing came of it and sometimes all the cancers came from it like it
It goes both ways for any generation. We just get to know about it now. So it's up to you
To learn about it and take action how you need to for you
I and you know maybe help help your community or the world out in the process
But if you're just talking about yourself individually like you got to do you got to do you boo boo
Yeah, that was our first real tip ever you do you boo boo you really do because
There's just so much to know and I am one of those people that gets overwhelmed with the information because I just think
Everything's bad. So you sort of have to pick your bad
Everything's bad unless you just eat well
Yeah, and and you have to go out of your way to do it and you have to go out of your money budget
Unfortunately, yeah free range. What was that chicken and you know, you know, I love to butcher a good meme and it said
You know Santa
Or no black Friday black Friday everyone has their big flat screen TVs. Can you please put groceries on sale?
Oh my god, I would love that
Please please put groceries on sale instead of TVs on black Friday
Not just groceries put on like I was trying the free range chicken that don't have hormones added and
The uncaged fish the wild caught fish like that's the stuff that we need not just fish protein. Yeah
Chicken like it's yeah, specifically how they are bred and how we are getting it because it's so important
I'm telling you look at the teenagers today
The teenagers today
Look like 20 year olds. Oh, I know and it's because their hormones are wildly overly
Produced and it's I'm firm believer that it's from what's being put into the food
You know, yeah and hormones in the chicken you're feeding your what do you think your kids that they'll eat anything chicken in all forms
Well, what's in the chicken? Well, you don't have to be a firm believer
That's a fact and I'm reading it right now because melodies 10 and it's all about how girls are getting
Older and like hitting puberty were developed
Years before our generation did because of the food and the processed
Like meats that they're in taking and that's that's fat and everyone in the world for every generation after us needs to
Be flat-chested longer because that's what we had to do
But I never got mine you got yours and then lost them
You're a different anomaly
But like we had to suffer so everybody else needs to suffer I
Mean I we should post a picture of what we looked at 12 versus what these kids look at like at 12 because
We were the beasts from the East. It's it's horrible. It's horrible, but I would take that any day
Over a cross. Yeah, what's going through these kids bodies now might include it. I mean, yeah, I know
So moving on fatty fish is on an anti-inflammatory fatty fish wild caught fatty fish
Which is like salmon and tuna. I was gonna say give me a fatty salmon tuna
Fat a their omega-3 fatty acids which we know so there's a mega. Did you say hold on?
Did you just say fatty?
You didn't look at me so then I closed my mouth because I was like, oh my god
She didn't hear me and now we're just gonna bypass this. I heard it. It just gave me a five second delay
I have a brain fog as well
Cool cool. Well
So these polyunsaturated fatty acids from fish and the mega-3s
they
Have a secretion like a it's a chemical compound that triggers
Anti-inflamm it triggers the people running over to the inflammation switch to turn it off, right?
It like tells them hey the time is now so
Fishes it's just a really good option. I need more fish in my life like I we eat a lot of chicken
But I'd love to switch it up a little bit and eat more fish. I eat shrimp but not in not enough
Well, I'm a year in yeah, that's true super easy
I know way easier than I thought and not as expensive as
You thought it was gonna be
Yeah, and I'm gonna do that this year. I think I'm gonna eat more fish takes her a while but she comes around fatty
Okay, I'll punch you in the face
My last one for these sugar tips sugar turns your smile upside down
To rough brown
I said that with a smile
But what that means is the more you reach for the sugar to feel better the worse it makes you feel yeah for a multitude of reasons
But also because it triggers your brain so you get that initial high just like a drug and then you get the immediate crash
So the what they say is that the sugar?
Only makes it last about 30 minutes. Oh my god the high and then you're done
And then you want to reach for some more which is why it's called a drug
Yeah, and so there was a study that after they researched after six years those who ate the most junk food
had 40% higher
Risk of depression than those who ate the suggested amount of the five teaspoons. I believe that a day. Yeah
Because you're sitting around there's there's sugar in everything. There's sugar and potato chips
There's sugar and bread. There's like you really really have to watch it. It's not just candy bars
It's not just ice cream. It's not just chocolate cake
You really have to be aware of where the added sugar is but 40% of those people that had more junk food
Ended up with depression
Well depression is connected to addiction, right? So that makes a lot of sense and the people with insulin resistance
It appears the brain releases lower levels lower levels of the good dopamine, which is that good feeling
Yeah, but it's more stable more stable. Yes
All right, my last one is awesome for the connection with the sugar because it's berries
draw
Raz
Black you want a first name basis with these berries? Yeah, okay blue
And my favorite the crayon
Oh, oh, I don't like blueberries either. You I know and that's really good for heart disease like prevention
Oh my god, and I accidents and in blueberries. It's like insane. I know I love some raspberries
That's my favorite berry. Yeah, you know oatmeal. Mmm. So good. So
It contains berries contain a high concentration of a word that I can't say so I'm gonna say it and
Those
Cyanins I can't I can't with you and the cyanins
I'm not gonna teach my kids math. You cannot teach my kids reading
It's not reading pronunciation. I can read these letters. I cannot say them out loud
so they contain high high concentrations of that word and
That helps reduce inflammation and keeps your brain sharp
That's where the brain fog comes in. Well inflammation. Yeah, think of any type of inflammation
It's just cloudy like I hate bloating. It's bloating. It's creating air and space and
You know liquids and fats in the body. It goes to the brain, too. Yeah, it's not you know
It's not a separate neck up is not a separate thing
So berries help keep your brain sharp and if you add them to proteins and
They are the antioxidant you can have for like a breakfast to start your day or
Freeze them. Oh
And that's your sugar sweet tooth at the end of the day. Yeah put some
Yogurt some really good Greek yogurt with some frozen berries at the end of the night
That's literally with the article says really mm-hmm. Oh and some cinnamon and I think that's a great
That is a great end of the night snack. Yeah
That's not a revelant. You didn't just create that I I thought I did
Back up a little I have a hard time with people saying I don't like this. I don't like that. I don't like this
I don't like that. Well, guess what figured out
You got to start liking something that you don't normally eat and that is healthy or else
You're gonna just be doing living the same life that you've been living in the same brain fog in the same bloating in the same
State of body that you have start liking something figure out how to make it so that you do like it
But when people come up, I don't eat this. I don't eat that and I see you know my responses
I can't help you then. Yeah, I
Can't create a food that doesn't exist that you will like to make you feel better about yourself
Yeah, and that is all I talk about with people and like all right. Well, what if you die?
eliminating this food because it's horrible for you and
Replace the crunch that you need with this food and they're like, I don't eat that. I don't like that
It's like, okay. Well, let's try these three other options
I'm gonna give you and when those three other options are also vegetables that you don't like and can't
Swallow and can't chew
There's yeah, can't help you. Yeah, I'm you have maxed out. I am done
There's so many ways to make things
Eatable and flavorful eatable eatable edible. Oh edible
I was thinking flavorful like flavor
And yes eatable and
And flavorful, but if you don't have the want to try something new then you do not want it bad enough
Wait, I saw a meme the other day. This is nothing to do with what you're talking about. Okay, cool
That was like imagine you're in the early 2000s and you're on a game show where the prize is flavor-flavored
I was like, oh my god, yes sign me up I
Love that show. He is a is actually a really good guy. I've seen a lot of things lately about him doing good things for
Other people, but he was a hot mess in the early 2000s. I think he was living his best life
That's what I think. Oh, he's still wearing that clock. I know listen. We all gotta wear the clock
It's time into our
Later years in life and the only way to do that is to cut down processed sugar and to eat these anti-inflammatory
Foods and just pay attention. Yeah, yeah
attention, I
Mean just pay attention and but with that it you have to weed out the noise
And that's hard too. I think when it we talked about flipping the switch
But when you feel bad for long enough and you don't want to feel bad anymore
You'll do it
Yeah, like when you're sick of feeling sick
you'll do it
yeah, and
I'm gonna do it. I'm I'm I'm sick of the sugar feeling like I don't eat a lot of it all day long
But when I do I like binge I'm like a binger like I'll go for a week
And it's just like I said when you have sugar you want it when you don't have it in your diet
You no longer crave it because the drug doesn't have a hold on you. Yeah, and in turn you don't feel bloated
You don't wake up with brain fog. It like all goes together. So clean eating is the way to be people
I'll start Monday
My birthday birthday this week, so she's allowed you sound so happy about it. I just think you're on my pants
Stop thinking about your pants and think about how fun it's gonna be. Oh
yell at me for fatty
No, it's fatty
But see you'll say fatty, but you won't say
Was rapping like Eminem you're whispering just
