Enjoy!
When I was healing from breast tumors I just drank green juice & carrot juice. That was it. The tumors (size of nearly golf balls), dissolved!
Now I'm having a new health issue so I'm getting back on the wagon. Thank you for the inspiration to get started again!
Wendi Anne the things you do to get in a state of health are the same things that keep you in a state of health..
@Steriods of Soldier Well battling Epstein Barr Virus left ear and face & overall exhaustion. I had the shingles 7 yrs previous, so it is attacking that area. My only relief I've found is ozone therapy 1x weekly. Getting back into juicing but not exclusively yet.
@@gypsiemomm have you heard of dmso?
@@Emily-pm5gr I have heard of it, but haven't researched it as much. I was considering MMS "Miracle Mineral Solution" I don't know of anyone using either, so I'm hesitant.
Wendi- That is incredible! Do you know if your tumors were malignant? Did you do a juice fast or did you eat regular meals as well.
THIS is what I've been looking for, for sooo long. I have PCOS which makes me unbelievably sensitive to Insulin and thus cant just sustain myself on fruit. It makes me break out like crazy and so many other symptoms. It's sooo hard tho, to find inspirational videos on a vegetable-based lower sugar raw diet and I'm so glad I found this channel
Purchased the NC800 from John a few weeks ago and loving all the FREE content he provides to get more fruits/vegetables in my life. Omega horizontal juicer crushes everything I drop in and looking at buying another one for my Mom.
thanks for going into detail 👍
My husband..Steve Gerlach....lived with Ann Wigmore....around 1987..he lived in her brownstone..he has all her books. If you want to connect he would love to share!
I’m still watching...
But I’ve been following Brooke Goldner’s autoimmune protocol and it’s pretty amazing. I guess it’s more of a balanced approach to to raw foods like you were saying. It’s got more than 10% fat, but all the overt fats are from omega 3 sources or avocados if you choose to eat those.
1.5 lbs to 2 lbs or more of dark leafy greens or cruciferous vegetables
MINIMUM 1/2 CUP CHIA OR FLAX SEED
MINIMUM ONE GALLON OF WATER
Maximum 3 cups per day of fruit (or about 25% fruit and 75% vegetables by volume). You can also have avocados - as much as you want as long as you get your minimum amount of greens in.
I feel way more satisfied on this raw diet than on any other. Intellectually speaking, the fruit/ greens diet (801010 or natural hygiene style) makes sense to me. But it was hard to stick to and I could never get all those greens in because they didn’t taste good unless you added fat or juiced them (like you’re doing. And juicing greens was not really allowed on 801010). So we’ll see how it goes, but she heals people’s autoimmune diseases this way and I have zero cravings because I’m getting the nutrients I need and satiety from the fat.
Rebecca, are you still following Dr. Goldner's protocol (a year later)? Have you been able to stick to it? And how has it affected your weight? I'd love to hear from you!😊
@@dorotheelouis9162 Yes, I’m still following it, though not 100% because it’s hard to do in a restaurant or when eating with friends and family. I’m 5’4”. I started out at about 142 lbs and I am down to 124 lbs now. 😊
I’m doing it now to heal digestion. I can’t do as much fruit as she allows. Hopefully once I heal I can so my cals have been low but I’m not going hungry. Definitely losing fat.
Great video John, you started me and my husband growing a garden. Thank you so much.
Wow i really appreciate the depth of information john! Much love!
Thank you very much I appreciate all your information and your humor 😀
Great video! Thanks! Thank you so much for this informative video! I got so much out of it.
Love your videos John! Watching you for 6 years and still learning and using what you have taught me. Thanks for everything.
Are you a raw vegan?
Always inspirational dude! I bought my first juicer from Jack Lalaine! I’ve gone back-and-forth for years, I found your channel and Marcus Rothkrantz Channel about seven years ago. And slowly over time I’ve learned a lot. Thanks for all the great videos
At this point, I'm probably closer to roughly 60% calories from fruit 40% from veggies - give or take a little
If you put up the speed, John sounds like he's on something or had too much coffee. It's pretty funny. Thanks for all the work you do, John. You're a wealth of information on healthy eating. I'm not raw, but I am eating a whole foods vegan diet with a lot of raw foods. I'm going to get back into juicing very soon.
I love your videos!!! Thank you!!!
Looking forward to your next video with Paul Nissan. Like you he's honest with his journey.
It's also possible to become over-obsessed with eating and sometimes does more harm than doing your best. There's and old saying, " It's not what you do 5% of the time, but 95% of the time.
Thankies John 👌
You got me into gardening 3 years ago
ya i was high fruit, and then my teeth started to hurt, i switched to 2 meals vegetables one meal fruit and i found my balance and sharper clearer thinking. you can't be purest, you have to cater it to you and ur meals.
Same happened to me when I was eating low-quality fruit, but switching to high-quality fruit solved it completely. Tried eating less fruit and more vegetables too, but that sucked in comparison. It's really about the fruit quality.
@@nicholastidemann9384 hmm, i got the best i could, some organic, some not, but i feel good and clear thinking now.
@@BintGumby: the best you can is often not good enough in our society full of modern cultivars which are mineral deficient and high in sucrose, as well as most fruit being picked acidic and unripe. Organic or not is rarely the matter, the problem is finding fruit which is ripe and fresh, mineral-dense (will generally have stronger color, aroma, and taste), as well as all its sucrose having been reduced to glucose and fructose in the ripening process (the primary cariogenic bacterium of the human mouth, S. mutans, only uses sucrose to create the sticky biofilm which turns into plaque over time; it can metabolize fructose and glucose too, but only lactic acid will be produced, which can easily be neutralized by saliva and the alkalinity properly ripe and mineral-rich fruits bring).
I also felt better with some greens than when I was eating low-quality fruit, but eating high-quality fruit is even better than both.
@@nicholastidemann9384 I agree. I respect John and his research and years of videos, but I think he's lost his way in a sense, I don't think eating so many foods in the enormous amounts he does is reasonable or even healthy. And low fruit? We're primates! Raw vegetables are largely unpalatable for a reason. If anyone says that fruit is not the ideal food for humans, they lose me. Of course, the points both of you make are valid, and if you get garbage fruit you have to do the best you can
That's a great nutritional app, Cronometer.com, especially the minerals and vitamins (B12 and D sources) sections.
It's such a great app, I got the pay version.
thanks so much for this
You cover ... everything!
Awesome!
Is that an EMF protecting pendant you're wearing? If so, what brand/type is it? Thanks for all your informative posts!
what have you found is the best juicer to make your green juice?
John, I'm still not sure about nightsade veggies. Could you provide an alternative?
What juicer are you using for greens and veg?
If you get your calories from starch (complex carbohydrates) like you do, you will have to juice on daly basis or and eat fermented foods. Fermented foods and sweet fruit don't go well together :) There are better ways to enhance nutrition which is very important in this age of depleted soils, but for calories at the end we all eat sugar, hehe.
very good info video.please make a video how to sprout black beans. and other beans and chickpeas etc and where do you find Natto organic,I ive in sweden.cannot find natto here.And sadly braggs cliquid aminos I cannot find any where in sweden anymore.cannot eat iodine have no thyroid and therefor I cannot east seasalt alges that are in all aminos. tamaris etc sadly enough.nothing copares to that flavor.Do you know any aminos without seasalt alges to have in food to get that taste?
How do you get proteins in your diet?
I did this adding my nutritious diet great results too and just for fun I imagined eating my fully carnivore friends diet only meat for the day and and popped into chronometer and was interesting to see in theory how out of balance just eating meat would be 0 fibre 0 vitamin c ect and my raw vegan protein levels were comparable
Hey Jon,
so when using a vaccume seal its okay to leave that much air inside your juice jars? they wont oxidate?
when you vacuum seal, it removes the excess oxygen in the container. So air space is moot.
A better mic and camera would be a good investment. Sound and video quality do not match the quality of the content.
I am so confused about the protein on chronometer. If I had to guess how much protein was in the 3 jars, I would think not more than 50. Natto by itself can have 10 g of protein for one ounce. In one microgreen video, I saw him add nutritional yeast, so that can add 8 g protein for 15g yeast. But where is the protein coming from with just cucumber celery, romaine and carrot? One quart of carrot juice has 8 grams of protein. John, do you ever consume plant protein powder? One scoop is 20g protein, like Nutiva hemp 15g.
Juice, nuts then fruit? Looks like the fruit would have its path hindered by the rice/nut meal. The juices don't really count as veggie portions. Fibre is a safeguard for quantity and taste, holds antioxidants and regulates digestion speed.
Do u exercise...run at all? Olives?
Shoutout to Karen & Rick Dina!
Very interesting John I guess roughly my question would be if you don’t have a garden and if someone tried to duplicate that I’m gonna throw a while number and say it would take you cost you at least $25 a day maybe even a hair more especially all those berries per day to eat for one person would you say that’s close to accurate
depends where you live and where you shop. The organic berries cost me $1 a package at the dollar store, so thats like $3 a pound, if they are out, costco or sams has organic berries, and can average $5-$7 a pound. Otherwise get frozen berries, at Trader Joes, $2.49/lb for wild blueberries. My roots generally average 60 cents a pound for carrots, $1 a pound for beets, and got org jicima for $1.39 a pound, although normally get non organic and its 50 cents a pound. org or hothouse Cucumbers can cost from 50 cents each to $1 each and my org celery is about $1.50 for 1.75- 2 pounds (generally) . I personally think for how I eat, I eat really "cheap" but for some without the means to buy wholesale, and/or get extreme prices (that is a whole nuther video) that being said, it would cost less to eat more beans and rice and less veggies, but if done right, you can maximize your phytonutrients at low cost. I would say I eat for around $20 a day more or less, (depends on the day) and what Im eating. You gotta spend your money somewhere. I choose to spend it on the most important thing I have, my health. As a comparison, eating out a nice dinner may cost someone easily $20 for one meal. All my meals are homemade.

💯Raw is nutty
It is insane though. You're overdoing vitamin A. I had the question of "is juicing processing?" for years and these days I can safely say - yes, yes it is . Some processing is okay but relying on processed veggies is going the other way too far. Seek balance.
Im not eating ANY Vitamin A. How can I over do it?
Beta-carotene is a type of substance called a carotenoid. Carotenoids give plants such as carrots, sweet potatoes, and apricots t heir reddish-violet colors. Beta-carotene is a provitamin. This means it's used by your body to make vitamin A. It's only found in plants. Vitamin A is also found in foods from animals. Vitamin A from animal sources is called preformed. This means it is in a form your body can use directly. It's found in dairy products, fish oils, eggs, and meat (especially liver). The vitamin A your body makes from beta-carotene doesn’t build up in your body to toxic levels. But vitamin A from animal sources can. Vitamin A is available in multivitamins and as a stand-alone supplement. Vitamin A supplements can contain only beta-carotene, only preformed vitamin A, or a combination of both types of vitamin A. If your body doesn't use all the beta-carotene you eat to make vitamin A, the beta-carotene that remains circulates in your body. Beta-carotene is also an antioxidant. It helps keep cells healthy.
@@growingyourgreens @Agni Das
Most people are very inefficient at converting beta-carotenes into retinol (animal form of vitamin A, that our body uses). Some people can't at all. Not to mention, the bioavailability of beta-carotenes can be super low. Meaning that regardless of the amount of carotenes in the food, it is impossible for the body to absorb quite a lot of that. So a low bioavailability + a low convertability = barely any retinol if any at all. I'm more concerned he is MISSING vitamin A. The carotenes that keep circulating are very taxing and actually toxic for the liver and the kidneys. Over time they can get very damaged from continuous overdose of carotenoids. And another thing, you can't actually overdose on retinol. That myth only came to be because of a case study of a handful of inuit that ate a polar bear liver and got sick. But it was found later that it was not the vitamin A, but a heavy metal toxicity from the liver as the polar bear ate some toxic trash from a ship most likely. To this day, there is no proof that naturally occurring retinol (not lab-made retinol-like substances!) causes any kind of overload / toxicity.
academic.oup.com/ajcn/article/96/5/1193S/4577160
Plants only have beta-carotene which is poorly absorbed anywhere from 65% down to 5%. So vitamin A through beta-carotene is mostly lost, but you will turn orange so that's kinda cool I guess lol
@@JasonJohnSwartz yeah and you also have to keep in mind that not all of the absorbed beta carotene turns into retinol. Many people can't or can barely transform any. I'd worry he's getting too little vitamin A lol
@@kamillatoth3433 I agree. I would be concerned about to little vitamin A. I did a few recent anti-vegan videos recently. Come check them out if ever your bored
my buckwheat won't sprout, ive tried 3 times now
tray a different source. I had that issue also. I believe some "raw buckwheat" may be heat processed so it will not sprout.
@@growingyourgreens ya im noticing some sell it not saying its raw or toasted. trying a different one now.
Thank you so much for this video, i once again learned a lot.
You say vegetables are a nutritional powerhouse but what about foods like salmon roe or grass fed beef liver? Now those are true nutritional powerhouses!
Where are the antioxidants in those foods?
I'm allergic to those foods.
I think this is great, if and when you can afford the amount of vegetables it requires to make these juices, however, on the other hand, I ponder this:
If I were to think back to a time pre-discovery of fire, a time before we had all of our fancy technology and tools, a time when we had only our hands and teeth to consume a meal, what would we have eaten and how much of it? I'm kind of guessing here but this would have also been a time when mankind lived closer to the equator and experienced a better climate. So, since there was no technology, no fire to cook with or keep warm by, I'm assuming the climate was warm all the time without the threat of freezing. On that note, there would have been no means of keeping foods refrigerated to preserve them and quite possibly, no means of digging up salt to ferment foods with even?
So, I think it is safe to say we would have consumed a lot of fruits to give us energy, given the fact that vegetables are quite low in calories. Also we may have taken in some veggies and leafy greens for the minerals and sodium contents to balance things out. Sort of like eating fruit for fuel and veggies for vitamins and minerals.
In order to get enough calories from greens and vegetables, the people of that era would have had to eat all day long to consume the volume of food it takes to provide 400 calories in that jar of juice. That's a lot of chewing. I honestly don't think we are meant to be juicing our foods unless we do so with our teeth. Our bodies are designed with a shut off mechanism that tells us when it has received enough nutrition. When we juice, albeit it is great for those in dire need of a digestive reboot and healing, it sends all the wrong signals in my opinion because many people just drink the juice and don't "chew" it. Chewing is required to activate the amylase enzymes to begin breaking the food down for digestion. Digestion starts in our mouths. Not everyone knows this or understands it.
All in all, this is a great video and very informative. Thank you for sharing!
While I do Agree, that I would eat much different living near the tropics and without electricity/appliances before fire, I personally dont think that would provide our IDEAL nutrition needs for a healthy life, as depending on the plants/trees available, it would be a very "limited" diet. Surely humans are adaptable. Some peoples live on meats, some on fast food, and many people do "ok". Im looking to provide my body with all the essential nutrients (known and unknown) for the best health/longevity. But everyone is free to eat as they see fit. The world is not a pre-fire world anymore. There are even MORE toxins in the environment now, than ever before. This can cause excess stress on the body, which the body uses more phytonutrients because of this.
Mostly looks good but Zinc to Copper ratio is really bad here.. You should be getting at least 10 mg of Zinc per 1 mg of copper because they both compete for absorption.
thanks for the heads up 8x is also a recommended ratio, mine is 4x on this day. I sometimes take supplemental zinc as needed. Of course, every day is a little different. Will pay a bit more attention about this ratio on upcoming testing.
John all well, you must remember not all of us live in a tropical or semi tropical climate. Our growing seasons are different in different parts of the US/ World . Yes I love to eat like yiu, go in my Garden and pick....nit reality unfortunately. Whe have cold Winters, hot summers where the stuff latterly burns because 8000ft - 90000 ftabove sea-level is like beeing under a broiler and dry climate as well. The store organics are so so expensive 😫 now it will be more because transport gas gone up. Besides eating raw when it is cold is not the best. A hot rice veggie soup with corn tortilla is yummy, potato soap. Bought a Jackfruit last summer cost $42.00. You need to get a bit more realistic with the rest off us. What is a person's food bill an the diet? It's different from the North to the west south and east.
1 head of organic red leave @Kingd Soper hear is $2.49 I can eat that smal head myself.
They trim it down so much to fit in the space they allow, that was the answere I got. It is ridiculous expensive. I been plantbad for 7 years now and loke it. My health is great no meds @ 65 and hubby @ 72. We do not look our age. Have a blessed day.
Love you, John. Your passion, your energy, just who you are. God bless you and all your loved ones. May all the work of your hands be successful and every word you speak breathe life. In Jesus’ Holy Name. Amen, amen and amen!
😁👍🏼❤️
How old are now?
@Truman Burbank I was asking because he looks so good and never seems to age. If you look at the very start of his channel, years ago, he looks exactly the same.
@Truman Burbank I agree, Asians, in general, do tend to age very well. However, diet does play a part in aging well.
Eat more vegetables on my raw meat only diet? Hold my butter
the body can only absorb what it needs, you spend alot of time on what you eat for no reason imo, i imagine if its in juice form it goes through you so fast you arent getting a whole lot from it, i could be wrong, but i know people who dont eat any vegetables or fruit who love there life, the ignorance is bliss effect, i feel like i care too much about what i eat for what my brain can handle and it consumes my life but you take it to a whole new level, are you ok? cause im kinda stressed personally worrying about food
youl need to eat even more to make up for all the sickness in society, we all need to grow our own food .
Eat more? What are you talking about?
@@sowhat... John joked hed have to eat more veg to make up for all the people who dont
Lentils and beans too!
He’s 83 you know.
A beautiful back drop would be nice : )
He’s beautiful! Doesn’t need beautiful back drop!
Native Americans ate meat 🥩 but Lean meats.
Brian J. Mader BS look up rabbit starvation and Pemican
Aura Glasswerks lol 😂 you think native Americans only ate rabbits 😂😂😂😂😂😂
John says he encourages everyone to do what they believe works for them. I personally eat some meat, I used to eat all raw vegan. It all depends on how you feel and what you like.
You gotta shorten you’re videos please
*your but I agree
I’m a raw foodist far different than what you recommend. My diet is primarily the same every day. I believe humans are not herbivores and not able to digest the amount of plant matter you suggest. Humans don’t have multiple stomachs like true herbivores. Most of it passes through you undigested and not used by your body. This is why so many vegans and raw foodists look so gaunt and unhealthy. Juicing fruits and veggies is not natural. Our ancestors never juiced fruits or veggies. This is a recent fad which was introduced with the invention of the juicer.
Another issue with this diet is you have to supplement to make up for nutrients you’re not getting. Taking supplements and vitamins is not natural. There are two main reason why you have to take supplement. Either your diet is lacking or your GI tract is compromised. In most cases with vegans it’s a Combination of both. Eating raw plant matter irritates the gut lining .
My diet consists of raw milk kefir which is one of the healthiest foods you can consume. I also consume raw milk and cheese. I occasional eat raw meat including liver. I don’t eat any veggies and the only Fruit I eat are some wild berries. I don’t eat any nuts or seeds and don’t consume any industrial seed oils either. I don’t consume any processed or fat foods most others do. All of my food I consume comes from a local farm. I don’t take any supplements or vitamins. No protein shakes or anything else. No b12 or vit d either. Everything I need is in the food I eat. I have never been sick in nearly 40 years.
@Purple Carrot Depending on my activity level I general eat 2-3 times each day. My meals are always the same. First meal is a liter or raw milk kefir with about 1-2 cups of wild blueberries. I buy the raw milk and make the kefir at home. Kefir is medicine for humans. You will not find a more powerful beneficial food on the planet. It can heal any digestive ailment. It has the ability to colonize bacteria in your gut promoting a very healthy GI system. If you have any kind of GI discomfort like IBS, Chrons, heartburn or anything related to your gut it can cure it. It’s a wonder food unlike any other. If you have allergies of any kind including food it means your gut is compromised. Most ailments in the body can be traced to your gut. If you ever want to truly heal yourself it starts with your gut.
My second meal consists of a liter of raw milk and my last meal varies a bit. I sometimes have raw meat.not a lot. I’m not real fond of animal flesh but it’s extremely healthy and easy to digest when in the raw state. Organ meat especially is probably the healthiest animal protein you can eat. I like fish but don’t eat it very often since the waters have become so polluted. I also eat raw cheese like Gouda and raw yogurt all sourced from the same local family farm who treats and cares for their animals properly. I sometimes eat eggs also generally 5-6 at a time but only the yolks since this is where most of the nutrition is. I do not buy commercial produce found in the local grocery store expect for wild berries.
I do not eat any grains nuts seeds beans veggies fruit except for wild berries or any kind of oil since these foods are highly inflammatory and cause a lot of GI distress. I only eat wild berries since they’re native to North America and Canada and haven’t been hybridized like all other fruits. Another issue is the blood sugar spikes when eating these foods. Many vegans are sugar addicts like the person in this video. They need to eat constantly throughout the day to maintain their sugar level. My blood sugar level is the same morning noon and night. It’s stays between 75-85 all day long.
I also eat only when I’m hungry and not by the clock. Sometimes my body only wants to fed once per day and other times 3 meals per day so it really depends from day to day. Generally when I only eat once per day it will consist of 6-8 ounces of raw meat, 8-10 ounces of raw cheese and maybe some raw yogurt. All of this food is very soothing and healing to the gut lining. I generally have a bowel movement 2 times per week. I don’t think it’s very healthy going more than once per 48 hours since that tells me your body is not utilizing what you’re eating it’s going right through you. Most vegans have bowel movements 2-3-4 times a day v/c they eat so much fiber which can not be digested by humans. That is extremely unhealthy and tells you whatever they’re eating is not being absorbed. Most people think eating loads of fiber is healthy but it isn’t. A little bit is all you need to feed the microbial in your gut.
Im glad you found something that is working for you. I personally would rather make fresh juice from vegetables and fruits vs drink milk from Animals other than human creatures (which IMO is not natural). I do drink coconut kefir and coconut yogurt and many other fermented foods. There is new emerging research that shows that the wider varieties of fiber containing foods you have, the greater diversity in your microbiome, that can improve your digestion, that IMO is critical for health. I would personally rather eat the foods animals eat, than eat animals, as IMO eating animals can be problematic on many levels. Of course, we are adaptable, and what works for me, may not work for you, and vice versa, due to my ethnicity, I have been told I am lactose intolerant.
Decklyn ive tried making kefir so so many times, could you explain? just letting the milk ferment? and what about yogurt? sometimes i get the constinecy but other times it just doesnt, it just separates into cheese
Purple Carrot ive done that twice, alone with yogurt culture and nothing happened......
@Decklin - am interested to know who r your influencers ie your mentors ? Do u follow Dr Shaun Baker ? Have u looked at www.zerocarbzen.com ? I tried carnivore diet - but my bowel motions were abnormal & I also got bad infections. . my cholesterol levels were v high.
so basically just eat carrots lol
aw bro u gonna get nutrient burn lol
