The TOP FOODS You Absolutely Should Not Eat To LIVE LONGER! | Dr. William Li
SUBSCRIBE to our NEW Tom Bilyeu Español Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMEJfAwHJkdpiHXuFVaFsIw/featured
On Today’s Episode:
If we made eating for optimal health a priority at every meal, we’d all be super healthy, hospitals and pharmaceutical companies would be out of business and processed food manufacturers would have to turn into farmers to survive. The problem with adopting a healthy diet isn’t that people don’t want to be healthy, the problem is that there are so many misleading and contradictory messages out there that even when you decide to eat healthy you’re still tricked into consuming sugar, chemicals, artificial coloring and everything else that causes metabolic disease and poor gut microbiomes.
So let’s just focus on the widespread messages that are common among several experts in the field and make at least one improve today to live a healthier and happier tomorrow.
Dr. William Li is a Harvard trained medical doctor, researcher and the NY Times bestselling author of the book, Eat to Beat Disease. Listen to his full interview with Tom, The Best Foods that Heal the Body: https://youtu.be/X_4JxOuMHLQ

I don’t think Biden really care. I think you should try and send a letter to President Trump because they’re killing us with the food that they allowing to be so in this country. And it’s way too much sugar and preservatives. Please write a letter again to President Trump.

Very confused between those who in spells the carnivore diet, and this doctor. Interesting to note they did studies on people that lived in the Antarctic the natives, and found out they did not suffer from cancer. All they did was eat meat. When they were relocated from their Arctic conditions and introduced to the western diet of flour, rice, plants, etc. they started developing cancers. So no I do not believe what he’s talking about

One has to separate processed meat and mass produced red meat from grass fed pasture raised organic red meat that is really good for you. Our cave men ancestors ate plenty of meat as wildlife was abundant then.

Dr Foundry is an Overweight Fat Quack taking advantage of people that don't do their research before throwing their money away, just look at how he sits during interviews blocking his Fat Belly, what a Joke!!!!

I recently stumbled upon @Dr.healingstrain oN InSta and I couldn't be more grateful! This amazing mycologist has truly changed my life with their mushrooms. After struggling with depression and anxiety for years, I was skeptical about trying something new, but I am so glad I did. The effects of these mushrooms were almost immediate, and I felt a sense of peace and clarity that I haven't experienced in a long time. @Dr.healingstrain is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about their work, and they take the time to educate and support their customers. I highly recommend giving them a try if you're looking for a natural way to improve your mental health. Thank you @Dr.healingstrain for bringing joy and happiness back into my life!

Should Not eat white sugar and white flour products. Bread, crackers, white rice, pastas, etc. Carbs that convert to blood sugar quickly and can result in insulin resistance and lead to diabetes and heart disease. Never eat processed meats, diet sodas, foods with MSG, excess sodium, grilled meats, fried foods, fast foods, energy drinks, and alcoholic beverage. Don't smoke. Stay active, get off your butt. Eat more fruits and veggies, period. Get quality sleep.

Despite that such interviews are so topnotch, it is so difficult to really listen to and appreciate these two-hour interviews. It would be really great if Tim could condense them to about 15 minutes.

2 months ago
12-years ago I found Dr. Li right after I was diagnosed with throat cancer (SCC type).
I ate exactly as he instructed and in the five and a half weeks from starting on the foods to when I began the traditional Cancer treatment of surgery, Chemotherapy, and Radiation the doctors had scheduled for me, the primary cancer site(remaining tonsil tissue) was clear of cancer, and the 5 lymph-nodes behind it that were full of cancer had shrunk by almost 30-percent. This triggered the doctors to review all the original scans and scan reports because they questioned the change in measurements. No errors were found.
We proceeded with the scheduled traditional treatment and I continued as much as I could with the foods from Dr. Li’s directives.
I am 12-years cancer free as of today. So I for one am going to say YES to eating this way.

Cancer cells don't need oxygen. They get their energy by fermentation, feeding on glucose and glutamine. They have damaged mitochondria. #drthomasseyfried #warburgeffect

Some good info. here , I’m 59& have tried many different ways of eating over the yrs. The worst for me was plant based, became Anemic & low iron. Im more keto carnivore at this point, down 30 lbs& blood work is Great! My take away is we are All different & it’s All very individualizes. One Size doesn’t fit All.
