What was the most surprising point made in this talk?

[fembot]

So eliminate dairy, wheat, corn, soy, eggs, peanuts/peanut butter and sugar (all forms). You're welcome!

I'm so glad her son was ok. I went through a very similar event when my oldest was 2. I didn't give up on him even tho they said he'd be in a vegatative state all his life. He's in college now. I think spirit goes farther than science.

I'm removing everything in my life that gives me craving. I's the best decision I've made. It includes sugar, coffee.... really anything that I crave I now reject. I'm only invested in my passions: software, music, cinema, books, ideas. It's so good to feel free, because any craving ends up enslaving you. Satisfying cravings give you instantaneous joy, but at the cost of long-term satisfaction. And replacing cravings with dreams and ambitions, that gives you not just joy but true happiness.

I went on the JJ Virgin diet and it changed my life! I had ballooned to just over 265 lbs. (morbidly obese!) because I was eating anything and everything I wanted. I accidently found the JJ Virgin diet and thought I would give it a shot. What did I have to lose, right? I dropped to 219 lbs., so far! Before, I couldn't put my socks on without the help of a device. I was too fat to bend over! Now, I can put my socks on normally. Before, it was very painful to walk around the mall with my wife. My hips and back killed me! And I got worn out in no time! Now, I can walk as much as I like, and have the energy I never dreamed of! This diet is the real deal! I highly recommend it to everyone with any sort of weight or health issues!

Never trust somebody who tries to keep you watching by delaying the message.

Glucose and sugar are not the same thing. Every cell in your body runs on glucose. This kind of mindset gave me bulimia for 12 years and embracing fruit and whole food carbs saved my life.

[Suge]

After months of listening to different nutritionists give lectures on the internet, I am 100% convinced that ALL foods are unhealthy and you simply shouldn't eat ANYTHING!

[mysticaltyger]

I think the 12-14 hour fast between dinner and breakfast really makes a difference, too. I have been doing that already and it really does help.

[evelynvelna]

"Gluten, dairy, corn, soy, eggs, peanuts" @ 12:40 and before anyone gets after me and says "but that's only six!" I can count, thanks. I can also listen. The 7th is sugar, mostly fructose. You're welcome.

She never said "don't eat fruit, " she said it's not a free food. You can't just sub it for unhealthy food because it's natural. Gotta make sure you eat veggies too. That's all. Calm down.

It's Jim Rohm who said "don't wish things to get easier, but wish yourself to be stronger!"

[OliverWilliams]

Damn I was just about to have my daily Burger with sugar on top.

[KianaMonique]

Wow I've watched a lot of informative videos on digestion and health and what you should or shouldn't be eating. Not only does she have a good sense of humor and a touching story, her approach to healing seems realistically achievable. I don't know what it is that makes this video different but it's giving me motivation and hope, so thanks!

[TotalNewTrish-N]

I've been doing this and have lost 50 lbs and feel amazing.

[ecolou]

This lady is the real deal. I have made these changes so far I have lost 5.5 kgs. Listen to what she says if you have tried everything then listen.

As someone who went from diabetic to pre diabetic in less than two weeks by following Dr Mark Hyman's 10 Day Detox, I can say she is at least in the same ballpark. The main thing is that fat is not the problem, carbs are. For those of us (and there are millions around the world) who have pre diabetes or diabetes, eliminating sugar and foods that spike sugar and insulin are the number one priority.
Eggs are not a problem, unless you are allergic, some types of dairy are not a problem, unless you are allergic. Fruit is a problem because it is processed as sugar. Fiber and micro nutrients aside, it is processed by the liver and pancreas as sugar. I have berries in very small amounts, and very dark (85% or higher) chocolate in very very small amounts, and not every day. I have a teaspoon or less of full fat cream (not creamer or half and half) in my occasional coffee. I cut out ALL grain based foods: flour, pasta, bread, rice, oats, quinoa, etc etc. No potatoes - white or sweet for the time being. No legumes - although they are high in protein they are processed as a starch and spike sugar.
If you don't have a problem with sugars, then you might be able to eat a broader range of foods, but for now, I consider myself glucose and carb intolerant.
And of course, exercise is very important - but do what you can - walk for 20 minutes a day, if possible - or do more.

Very true because the best I ever feel is when I'm on my low iodine diet for my thyroid cancer body scan. The first week has me ddyyiiinnng & by the 2nd week I feel terrific since I can't consume *any* dairy or dairy byproducts, no bread, low salt (basically zero junk food), no eggs, no chocolate. My skin feels and looks amazing, sleeping patterns are amazing and energy/focus through the roof. I've generally maintained this diet since my surgery two years ago. Unfortunately, I've eaten Mcds twice this month and haven't been eating properly, the brain fog is strong, difficulty staying asleep, stressed out. I need to get back on track.

10:08 - “Our body is a chemistry lab, and food is information. One of the fastest things you can do to change your health and change everything is to change what’s at the end of your fork.”

This is just so amazing...For so many days I kept wondering that why wasn't I losing fat on my waistline....I got the answer...May you and your sons have a happy
