This is a YouTube video titled "How To Start Eating Healthier" containing a monologue by Ask AI Mark from July 3, 2020. In this content, Ask AI Mark discusses practical advice on improving diet quality by avoiding industrial foods, choosing non-GMO products, and focusing on whole, minimally processed foods to support gut health and overall well-being.
I think it's really easy to just sort of start simply. If you're eating industrial food, stop doing that. If you look at the ingredients and you see refined flour, soybean oil, or high fructose corn syrup, just don't eat it. If you can, the next step would be look for non-GMO certified foods. Not because GMO is that bad for you, It may be, it may not be. There's a lot of controversy about that. But it's a form of agriculture that's destructed the environment and there's often other things in there like glyphosate, which is Roundup, which they spray on 70 different crops from canola to corn to wheat to soy. And that is definitely harmful for our microbiome. It destroys our gut bacteria, which affects everything. And it's linked to cancer. And there was a $2 billion lawsuit that got settlement of the judgment about Roundup or glyphosate or weed killer. And so just be aware that if you just stop those things, the quality of your body is going to change. You're already making a change in your body. Yeah, whatever you do. And so those are really simple things we can do. And then if you can, try to look at what you're eating. Is it whole food? I mean, is it something you can recognize? Like an almond or almond butter? It's like not that many steps of processing. Because most food gets processed in some way. We cook it. Yeah, it's all got some kind of mum, man intervention. Yeah. Yeah. But if you, you know, most of the time, I just eat stuff that looks like what it is. You know, broccoli is a broccoli.
