Abbey, I went by your recommendation and got me some Built bars. Tasty! I love the marshmallow type texture. I wish I'd paid more attention before ordering a mixed box, though. The Mint Chocolate Brownie flavor has 130 calories, and Chocolate Peanut Butter and Coconut Almond have 180. Sometimes that 60 calories make a difference in my daily limit I have to lose weight. Next time! Thank you for the discount code.
Hey Abbey, I was wondering if you could dig into the Smalletics Petite Power program by April Wittney. It's an expensive program, but as a petite person myself trying to lose a lot of weight, it's an enticing program.
I know Abbey has her trigger warnings and disclaimers but as someone who does struggle with ED and ED tendencies I’ve actually found her content to be more helpful than harmful. the hungry crushing combos are life changing and she’s really taught me the “how to add to your meal to avoid a binge later” stepping stones.
watching abbey's face journey in the lefthand corner as soon as she hears "warm lemon water".... priceless
I think Abbey should just re-use the segments she tapes debunking the lemon water myth. You know, just drop the prepared version in every time she does an analysis where someone mentions lemon water. It would save a lot of time.
@@nanettemorton4054 it really would lol
Warm lemon water.. disgusting. Sorry not sorry 🤢
Your content just gets better and better! I’m a nursing student and I really look up to you for your respect for evidence-based practices and your ability to share it with us! You have been a huge resource for me in my ED recovery journey. 🌷
Aw thank you! I'm so glad my videos have been helpful for you ❤️
Just be aware Abbey has her own biases, make sure you are looking up to many different health experts. She is good at helping in ED recovery as I have seen many comment, but not everything she says is 100% accurate overall according to our best information
@@haylaebay could you give an example on the "inaccuracy" you're referring to?🤔
@@sadderdaze4197 I would also like an example, as yes it’s good to always do your own evidence-based research, but considering Abbey is an expert in her field as well as cites what other experts (such as sports dietitians) she consulted with for a video and always shows the study she is referring to on the screen, I’m not sure what she’s been “proven” to be incorrect about? I’m not sure what “best information” would be unless it is supported by multiple objective studies, and even then I don’t have degree to know I’m interpreting the studies correctly. The only thing I can think of is the fiasco where she misinterpreted someone’s lunch a few years ago, which was more an editing issue than anything. Alternatively, the whole “people hate intuitive eating” thing, which she has a disclaimer for specifically saying it’s not for everyone.
Idk much but i'm NOT trusting anyone that references Gwyneth Paltrow
Yup haha! Thoughts of steaming vaginas and detoxes is enough to turn me off and basically block out anything someone says after the say they believe anything to do with Gwyneth Paltrow. Lol
This comment needs more likes....
i’ve had a problem with her diet advice for a long time and felt weird that no one was talking about it. thank god
Me too, thank god her views dropped off. Protect the young people !!
I hope this review was helpful!
Me too!!! It's all opinion based - not credible sources at all. It's so much about weight loss too even if it's worded in a different way.
ME TOO.
Same same! Been waiting for this one for a long time!
As someone with IBS it's always so weird to me when people talk about "eat and do this for a healthy gut." It's too individual. For example, I cannot drink coffee at all. Most high fodmap foods are actually trigger foods for me BUT I can eat literal cups of raw kale and be fine. But a single spinach leaf will destroy me. Keep track of what you're eating and how it makes you feel and go from there 🤷♀️
So true. I have a friend that has Crohns and yes, spinach does bad things to him. Poor guy thought he was being healthy throwing spinach into his smoothies but learned kale is so much better for his situation.
That's so true, thanks for mentioning this point!
To me, this is what intuitive eating is. It's about making a connection between what you eat, and how it makes you feel.
@@firefly314 I went through the same thing! Took me forever to find out that was a trigger because I had no clue that was a thing! I can tolerate cooked spinach though.
Yes! Half the general recommendations would make me sick, but half the IBS-related recommendations aren't useful to me either (more or less). I can do about a half cup of beans once or twice a week--unless I'm already reacting. Coffee in limited amounts is usually fine. Fresca (I think the sorbitol) is an instant long-term trip to the toilet, but sugar-free gum is OK. Carbonated beverages (mostly fizzy water, but occasionally soda if I've gone wobbly) actually settle my system down--I burp a lot, but it really relieves pressure. Onions are usually OK, garlic is mostly OK when cooked fresh, but raw or garlicky leftovers have unpleasant consequences. I have to be really on top of what I'm feeling to eat well. I'm IBS-M and I think that's why so much is sometimes/maybe/usually. I literally can't get my sh*t together!
Reminder that unless you have gastritis or gastroenteritis, a bloated stomach AFTER EATING is a completely normal, expected process from, you know, filling an empty stomach with ✨ food ✨
Actually bloating is not normal, especially after eating.
@@annie9206 said who
@annie9206 Yes it's a well known fact when you out something in a bag the bag doesn't look more full 😂
I started off on fitness CZcams watching Sam, which eventually led me to Abbey's content. We have come full circle.
Wow!
all these people who claim that their guts are leaking left and right sure do love to consume raw kale
😂
I wonder if it’s connected somehow? 🤔😒
Yup! 😂
Oh gosh yes! I get so sick to my stomach if I eat a number of different veggies, including kale, raw! I always find it interesting when various influencers talk about their tummy troubles while chowing down on raw veg.
Sam is the queen of pseudoscience. I unfollowed her because of that and her claims that the reason she can own two homes is because she "manifested" them and not acknowledging her obvious privilege. She seems like a sweet person I just didn't vibe with her channel I guess.
Ya I can see your point. I just try think of it as, maybe her manifestation helped her be successful enough to be able to afford two homes. ☺️
I've been thinking about unfollowing her for a while. Admittedly, I kept following her because I think her daughter is just adorable. But there's something about Sam the rubs me the wrong way. I'm gonna unfollow.
I understand why it would be triggering!
@@sweetness371 ugh me too. I unfollowed her a while back bc of the same reasons. I can’t put my finger on what it is about her that bugs the shit out of me. Maybe just seems kinda fake ? Idk 🤔
I unfollowed Sam a year ago simply because her content always made me feel bad. Now having a dietician debunk a lot of the claims it makes me know I did the right thing. All of videos use moral language around food
Oh my gosh, I'm so happy you're finally reviewing her! She blocked me on Instagram when I called her out for spreading false information about alkaline water, she didn't seem to have any proof to back up the claims she was making.
Me too! She changes what she talks about based on sponsors! She’s so full of crap and needs to be called out!
Oh wow! I hope the review was helpful!
@@AbbeysKitchen it was! I actually suggested reviewing her about a year and a half ago
Lol wow! She blocked my sister when talking about BLM, my sister reached out to her super friendly with some important resources on how to speak out about BLM as a white person and she flipped out 🙃
@@Sharleen91 eww she's gross (Sam)
Couldn’t have clicked faster! I love Sam’s personality and lifestyle cin aren’t but her diet and health advice I usually take with a grain of diet culture pink Himalayan salt or just ignore completely. Haven’t seen the video yet but excited to see what you have to say.
Thank you, I hope you enjoyed the review!
Can you do a video where you discuss caffeine? Like how much is too much,benefits,side effects,and just like caffeine in general specifically coffee? It would be great
yess i would love this
I think it would be good for people to know that coffee on an empty stomach may cause acity and the related stomach problems. Now a day I eat a banana before my coffe although it's hard
Also maybe talk about the differences in tea and coffee or things like Starbucks refreshers that use green tea extract for caffeine
I feel so much better when I don’t drink it every day I stick to once a week cause I can’t sleep get anxious seem to put on weight from cortisol (which I’m sensitive to) but you can really just try for yourself to see what happens if you stop for a bit and if you feel better.
I'm also surprised she thinks it can just get better over time with cortisol, it seems to make me more and more of a wreck the longer I drink it and weight just seemed to pile on for me.
Also no matter how long I drank it I definitely went to the toilet releasing wayyy more water than I drank, having to get up two to three times a night just to go to the toilet even if I hadn't drank any water for five hours or more.
So yes I think in that case for me it is dehydrating..
@@francescaknapp yesss i have recently stopped drinking coffee i haven‘t had it in nearly 3 weeks im drinking green tea now although it still has caffeine its better for me
“The after body is an amazing thing…” thank you for that message today, Abbey. Although my kiddos are now 4 & 5, my body is still different than “before” and that can still be difficult to accept. Thank you for the reminder, mama 💕
So glad that was helpful ❤️
It’s so sad when people say “I’m bloated” when in reality it’s just your stomach pushing out because it’s filled with yummy food, and will go down in an hour or so.
Completely agree. Don’t need the suss after having a great meal. The food belly is aok as long as your dr is good with it. But mention it. Frustrating when people give stress over it. Be balanced and healthy, be happy and enjoy ,food is not poison.
I know 😫
if anything I see it as a sign my tummy is happy abd full, I love the feeling after a good fullfilling meal🌸
A full stomach right after eating a meal is not the same as the bloating and gas that can occur further down, a couple hours after eating
@@tawnipargman8237 that’s what I’m saying.. a lot of people are confusing bloating with just being full after a meal. It’s sad because people then restrict / try crazy diet changes to stop this, when really it’s just them being full. ❤️
i’ve always loved lemon water for the taste but damn these influencers are beginning to make me hate it. i can’t even order it at a restaurant without triggering an eye roll from myself! haha
😂 that’s great if you enjoy it!
Yeah I love it cause It helps me drink more water since I love lemon not because it “detoxes me first thing in the morning” like all these influencers are saying
I definitely could not wait till 12pm for my 1st cup of coffee. I get up at 4:30 a.m. to do my workout and walk the dog and by the time I get the kids up and ready for school, and then myself into work I am very much looking forward to my first cup of coffee at 9 a.m.. ahhhh that first sip of coffee is always the nicest☕😊 xx
Impressed you get all that done BEFORE your first coffee
Agreed, it's the best!
I hate the way people leap to the conclusion that just because a certain food isn't tolerated by some, it must be bad for everyone. I went through a period of terrible gastritis where I had to cut a ton of food out of my diet. Dairy was one of the few things that DIDN'T irritate my stomach. Skim milk, low fat yogurt, and cottage cheese were absolute lifesavers and my main source of protein during that period. So glad I didn't listen to those people who insist that "we're not meant to digest dairy and it's always best to go dairy-free just in case!"
For sure! I'm glad that was helpful!
Agree! my daughter Hates milk but would devour yogurt,cheese,eggs. her pediatric wven told me if she is getting her calcium from other dairy products there is no need to drink milk
I can't digest dairy but I still find my mental health is better when I eat dairy. I just have to take digestive enzymes with it.
That collagen taste horrible too lol, I'm glad I found you a while ago you always help me not fall into the diet culture and waste my money on useless things.
I'm so glad my videos have been helpful for you!
I'm 3 weeks postpartum and loved your message!! It's such an overwhelming and joyous time getting to know my baby...and trying to eat ( let alone brush my own teeth or shower) often seems challenging. Definitely giving myself grace and focusing on taking care of me and baby boy 💕great video.
I’m so glad it was helpful ❤️
Hello, I just wanted to say you've helped me so much and I'm glad that I've met you and watched your videos 😆
Aw thank you, I’m so glad!
I love your videos! They help so much in putting my perspective hat on! when watching the you tubers videos I immediately think it's a template, but as a science kid myself I love to see the rationales!
I’m so glad it was helpful!
Could you discuss antidepressants and diet? How some can cause weight gain and how to manage water/sodium retention that accompanies these medications?
"The belly" situation is also very much dependant on the type of delivery (vaginal birth vs c-section) and whether it's your first child. Also, your age. I had my first child at 29, my third at 37, deliveries also differed, and I can tell you that after my first birth (vaginal and I was young), my belly was back to normal within 2 days, without any belts, special diets and lemon water. Now, my post-partum body nr 2 and 3, however was a completely different story and it took a long time and a lot of effort to get to somewhat normal. Thankfully, the older I get the more I understand that a flat belly is at the bottom of my life priorities. Enjoy your pregnancies and your babies, discover motherhood, it all goes by so fast!
Same! I had my first baby at 29 and gained 50 pounds. Losing the weight took a while but I got there in time to have my second where I gained 60 (eating during that pregnancy was fun and I fully enjoyed all the foods I craved). I lost that weight quite easily afterwards. Maybe it was because she was an easier newborn than my first and I didn’t have any PP depression compared to my first. Fast forward to surprise baby #3 at 37. I only gained 21 pounds the entire pregnancy but man, it was so difficult to find my new post-children body. I managed my expectations and I am no where near where I was before children but really don’t think that is realistic anyway.
I agree- the flat belly is way low on my priority list and would rather enjoy my kids as they grow up. My goal is to model a healthy relationship with my body especially for my tween daughter. She’s definitely worth it ❤️
You girls are talking about flat bellies post partum...some people don't have flat bellies in the first place (like me)! 😁
On a serious note, you are right. We should not be held to unreasonable expectations to look "the same way" after birth. What mom wants to think about losing weight or looking a certain way when she has to wake up every 3 hours to feed her baby? Plus, stress can make it hard to lose weight, and there is plenty of stress when a new baby arrives. It makes me sad that society puts so much pressure on women with children, that some feel the need to get surgery.
Very interesting! That's a great point, thanks for sharing your experience!
@@AbbeysKitchen As a younger person, I’d be very interested to hear whether or not you and other moms always knew you wanted to be moms and raise children or if you felt differently as a younger woman
I did not grow up wanting to be a mom. My husband and I were married for seven years before we decided to have kids. Now we have 3. Enjoy doing all the”young” things at this stage of your life and be open to changing your mind later in life if the situation presents itself.
Sam Ozkural is the literal poster child of CA diet culture
I actually unsubscribed to Sam because she seems obsessed with all things diet culture and she only ever posts content when she’s sponsoring some brand.
I understand
I did too. It made me sad because I used to love her content and I became a mom around the same time. I was hoping to see more relatable life things, but unfortunately she's making all diet and exercise type videos now
Same here. I got so annoyed that every video is sponsored. I understand that’s how she makes money but it’s literally every video… also, what she’s promoting is more and more unsustainable
I gained 19lbs with my first pregnancy vs. 50lbs with my second pregnancy. Guess which one was the healthy pregnancy??
The one where I gained 50lbs! I carried to full term and had no sickness, ate a balanced diet, exercised several times a week, but had a big appetite.
The one where I gained 19lbs I was sick for 22 weeks, then got preeclampsia at 25 weeks, and my life was in danger and I delivered baby 6 weeks early. Sure I lost the weight fast but I never touched a vegetable or exercised once. Plus the NICU will crush anyone’s soul.
Minimal weight gain =/= healthy pregnancy
Oh wow! Thanks for sharing your experience!
I am 25 weeks pregnant and was feeling down about the weight gain. Along with Abbey's mention in the video that every pregnancy is different, this puts it into perspective
@@letthePigeondrivethebus Every pregnancy is very different and you just do you. Embrace this time of serenity. This is your season, your pregnancy.
This is so true!!! 👍
So so true. As long as you eat balanced, not overeat chocolate bars and such, workout and feel good, it will be the best for you and your baby. I gained about 18 kg with my prior pregnancies and seem to do so this time around. But we were always 100% healthy and I felt good. So I was happily ignoring any comments on weight gain or the „hugeness“ of my belly. Which it was btw, but hey, there was a human being inside! 😅😅
Yey, so happy to see my "requested "video. Love your channel it is funny and educational and it helps me question some food stigmas that I have created.
Thank you! So glad the videos are helpful for you
I watch her videos because of her personality, I guess. I see how she changes her diet philosophy a lot thorough the years. Thank you for reviewing her channel ❤️
I hope you enjoyed the review!
13 dollars a burrata?? Woo!! my Italian ass feels extremely lucky 😂 I can get it at 2 euros at every supermarket and if I really want it to be extremely good i pay 5 euros at max... Poor you abbey 😂❤️
😂yup!
Used to watch her because of her positivity and productivity tips, but unfortunately I did end up unsubscribing awhile back (before she even got pregnant) due to the amount of misinformation and how wishy washy she was about what she ate. I just couldn't support it anymore. Too bad to see not much has changed
I understand 🙁
I loooove how nuanced you are about everything and are your claims/critique is backed up with research.
Loved this episode as I've been a wee bit confused about gut health so this was a help. Also loved seeing the pretty light change in the video, you look so glowy in that warm light towards the end, Abbey!
Thank you so much!
I haven't even watched the video and I already know I am going to love it! Ha! I watch Sam's videos all the time and love her channel but every time I see a "health" video from her I can just hear Abbey's voice in my head with all her awesome No BS Dietician tips haha
😂 so glad the tips are helpful!
Hi Abby! I’m on a weight loss journey after a past of orthorexia and binge eating. I made a pact to myself to let go of my restrictive habits as they totally damaged my mental health, but then went 0 to 100 and starting binge eating multiple times a week which then negatively effected my blood pressure; so weight loss is now the goal again. In fear that I would go back to my old ways I’ve been watching your videos and you have given me so much hope that happiness and health can happen at the same time! Super excited for balanced meals and great mindset. Thank you so so much. You are saving lives 🖤
I’m not really one to comment on CZcams videos but I just wanted to thank you for your videos. You along with Natasha Ocean have literally changed my life and healed my relationship with food. I used to struggle with weight loss and I so desperately wanted to be skinny but strong and muscular. I think I had orthorexia and when I got pregnant for the first time I was so upset about what I was craving. My morning sickness lasted for the entire pregnancy (but I didn’t throw up all that much) and I pretty much had to eat all the time to reduce the nausea. And I didn’t want to only ever eat salad...I wanted all the pizza and ice cream and sweets! So I was really down after having my baby when I hopped on the scales and saw that I was heavier than I’d ever been. I was breastfeeding so I thought I’d lose the weight really fast but I didn’t lose any. I tried intermittent fasting but nearly fainted on day 3 so gave that up straight away. Anyway, I got pregnant again when my baby was 10 months old the eating was the same. I needed food constantly just to feel ok but during this pregnancy I started watching you and Natasha. My husband had also taken up running and I was so desperate to get out and run too but I had SPD so there was no chance in starting that until I’d given birth. Once I had, I started intuitive eating and I found I liked to eat 3 big meals a day to feel satisfied. I didn’t weigh myself too much because I know that weight fluctuates throughout the month anyway but along with running 2-3 times a week (no longer than 40mins) I saw the weight coming off. I don’t want to talk too much about weight but basically I have gotten to the point where I don’t have to worry about what I eat. I have treats whenever I want. I’m not worried that pasta will make me fat or if I have a piece of cake then the “healthy lifestyle” is ruined. I’m nearly 30 pounds down and I didn’t even try! (This is over the course of a year, weight loss takes time for it to be sustainable!!)
People at work asked me what I ate to lose the baby weight and the honest truth is that there has been no dieting. I eat whatever the heck I want! Its great!!!!! So thank you for these videos. Sometimes I start to feel like my old ways are trying to sneak back in but your videos help me to keep it real and stop worrying about calories and all that junk! I used to work out twice a day and eat separately to my husband. I didn’t spend much time with him because I was so consumed with the “it’s not a diet, it’s a lifestyle” mentality. I used to feel sad when I would think back to how “healthy” I was because I felt like I had failed. But really I hadn’t failed at all. Seriously, I can’t thank you enough. Eat more food guys. It’s nice to feel full and have energy. Especially when you have kids to chase after 😂 I don’t let what I eat make me feel guilty anymore and it’s amazing. Thank you for everything 🥰
Thank you for sharing your experience! I'm so glad my videos have been helpful for you and that you're doing better now ❤️
I’ve been waiting for this one 🙌🏼 so excited!
I hope you enjoy it!
so no one’s gonna talk about how good the edit for build bar is?
Aw thanks!
She blocked me on Instagram because dm’d her about the importance of folate during pregnancy after she told her followers they don’t need a prenatal supplement
That's actually scary 🥺
Oh wow
Yeah I was troubled with this as well
I'm on an anti anxiety medication that really affects my gut, and the thoughts of eating like she does is actually terrifying to me because I'm like hun, where is the fibre?? No fruit?? No water soluble fibre supplements?? How do you poop????
😫
PLEASE can you do a video about IBS, With some recipe recommendations? My boyfriend got diagnosed earlier this year and I want to understand it better as well as take your cooking advice so I can help to alleviate his symptoms. You’ve got a really old video up so please I find your content so so helpful
Hi Abby I really enjoy your content, I’ve learnt a lot myself on how to balance better my meals thanks to you. In this video Sam mentioned ‘be well by Kelly’ and I’d love to hear your thoughts on her weight loss methods and lifestyle since it’s basically sugar free and how sustainable it is. Just and idea 💡 xoxo
It's interesting that she cares about having a fruitless smoothie that would contain the fiber that would prevent blood sugar spikes, but putting sweet cream in the coffee is okay?
Maybe she likes fruit less than sweet cream, so she wanted to just do one sweet option. It's just an assumption though, so I don't claim that's this is exactly what she thought
That's true, I'm not sure!
@@katetempleton9669 yeah, totally possible. She probably just makes an exception because she wants to fully enjoy her coffee. 😉
ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!
I’ll put this on my list to discuss!
It’s so interesting about the warm food theory being beneficial. My mom and mother in law (who are both Mexican) always insist on giving me warm food like soups, stews and oatmeals to help me “heal” after giving birth. I hope there’s more research on this.
I always appreciate your no-BS science-backed information and it is helping me to make healthy, balanced decisions. I’d love to see a review of Daily Harvest. 💖
Really appreciate this! I’ve always enjoyed Sams videos and overall attitude but have always watched her food/diet ones slightly cringing (and recently avoided her food videos altogether because her advice pretty felt off to me). It’s great to hear a educated break down of it.
Loved your analysis of Sam's diet Abbey! Obsessed with both of your content! 😍👌🏻
Thank you!
Thank you for debunking the coffee thing! I've been waiting an hour to have my coffee since hearing that and honestly it makes me feel like I'd just rather be fat. 😭😭😭
Oh wow, I'm sorry! I hope this was helpful
Contrary to diet culture/wellness influencers, I struggled with the most digestive issues when I was under fuelling. I have IBS, but the biggest trigger is simply not getting enough food. Bloating can be a sign of a gastro issue, or food intolerance, but it can also be a result of inadequate fuel. I wish we would encourage more abundance in our diets, as opposed to focus on elimination and restriction as a “cure”.
I totally agree!
When i underate a lot it would take me at least a week
I have been waiting for this video! I started following Sam a long time ago and will say the videos you watched are some of her less off-the-wall food/diet claims. I always raise an eyebrow at some of the stuff she says. I don't think she is a bad person or says any of it to intentionally give bad info. I honestly just find her misguided at points but was happy to see how she handled her pregnancy for the most part. I feel like sadly now I seeing a lot more about diet trends on her channel.
Hey Abbey! This is a great video! I would love it if you could maybe do a video on the Fab Four Smoothie, the Body Love books, and Kelly’s whole food philosophy. Thank you! 💕
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!! Yes Abby yes!!!
Hope it was helpful!
Love this and that you mention about fodmaps, it's been a struggle for me with garlic and onion.
Ps love your blue head band!
Abbey, you have helped me eat healthy.. not just healthy foods but have healthy food habits 💜
finally i’ve been waiting for this one!!
I hope it was helpful!
Thank you for the information! I'd appreciate a video with tips for an optimal diet while breastfeeding :)
I have a bunch of posts about this topic on my blog! Here’s an example: www.abbeyskitchen.com/how-to-increase-breast-milk-supply/
Thanks for bringing up Dr. Axe. I wonder if he a financial conflict of interest with essential oils like some of these people do who make all kinds of wild, silly claims about essential oils
That’s true too!
YES! 💕 so thankful for you.
❤️❤️
I always discover new crazy people on the internet thanks to Abbey😂👍🏻
I'm glad!
Same here!! Never heard of these channels previously but then l don't follow "health and wellness" channels 👍
These people speak so confidently about things they don't know anything about lol. I could never
@@Sophya7 exactly.
@@AbbeysKitchen :D
I was just about to request this. You read my mind.
Wow!
I spent so long in my uni days restricting my diet and carb intake in a similar way, and wondering why I was bloated, gassy and in digestive discomfort all the time. I tried so many things....but the only thing that worked was eating more.
Wow. I'm sorry for your experience but I'm glad you're feeling better now!
Would love to see a review 'tone it up' nutrition plan. Thanks 😁
I’ll have a look!
Yes been waiting for you to post
Hope you enjoyed it!
Looove your videos abby really helps me learn to eat intuitively
I’m so glad!
I love Sams content she is an inspiration to me now you and Doc Mike are my fav Docs
Built Bar Related: I got the churro puffs built bars recently and just tried the microwave and whipped cream trick...OMG so good. Thanks Abbey!
I gained weight breastfeeding too! I didn’t really loose the weight until now- a year postpartum ☺️ thank you for bringing this up! So many of my friends couldn’t relate to me at all on this.
I'm glad that was helpful!
Be Well By Kelly (including her smoothies) is very Keto adjacent and I'm glad you named that--I had to let it go for those reasons after being drawn to the content initially.
I understand!
Hey Abbey! Love your content, thank you for it! I have some digestive issues and my nutritionist got me on omega 3 and glutamine suplements and I really felt a differente from the first days having it. After a month, I have a lot less constipation and bloating. Have you tried it? And if so, how was your experience with it?
Thank you for debunking the coffee myths. I am a toddler mom so I am someone who NEEDS coffee first thing in the morning before I do anything else. I have been hard on myself lately really trying to drink a bottle of water first but I just cannot do it. I also think that the effects of caffeine are so individual and even fluctuate over your lifetime. Recently I have noticed myself getting extra stressed and irritable if I have a lot of coffee on an empty stomach but I also suffer from anxiety and am just highly sensitive in general.
I totally understand, I need my coffee too!
I gotta ask, how do any of you feel satisfied after a smoothie? I've even made the "balanced" ones, full of fat, protein and fiber, and might I add, high calorie, and I am hungry an hour later, I don't even feel satisfied after I drink it. However, I can make some bacon, eggs and a side of fruit and not feel hungry for hours. Need something to chew I guess.
I’m never satisfied from a smoothie on its own. But if I add two slices of toast with some avocado, peanut butter, some cream cheese, that hits the spot.
I have one every day and it’s how I get enough fiber. I put one banana, a little over a cup of frozen fruit, almond milk, a cup of Greek yogurt and a really good amount of peanut butter and a tablespoon of cacao. It’s cheap and helps control my appetite for the whole day. The yogurt makes a big difference.
Yeah it’s the chewing aspect, or lack of. It’s one of many reasons I love smoothies (I have a small appetite and am in recovery from under eating), it’s an easy way to get an extra boost of everything. I think our bodies don’t register drinking and eating in quite the same way so it can take longer to feel the satisfaction of a beverage. You could try adding oats into it for more ‘bite’.
One thing to note about lemon water - as well as not actually having any benefits over normal water, it can increase the risk of toothwear! I'm a dentist and I'm seeing more an more patients with toothwear because o this. Toothwear can cause sensitivity and increase the risk of other dental problems later on. Not a nutritional point but something to note :)
Can you do a video on nutrition, exercise ideas and supplements for hormone health? I have pcos and endometriosis and am always looking for new ideas to try!
Hey Abbey, can you review Amelie Zilber’s what at I eat in a day??
+I love your content💙💙
On my list!
Love the talk about how the intestines clean house - migratory motor complex? and the timings. So interesting. x
YESSSSSSS I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!
I hope it was helpful!
@@AbbeysKitchen Yes, I enjoyed it! Thanks!!
A note for the Kale. I buy the frozen kale it's easier to add to soup or eggs anything someone would like because it doesn't usually have large leaves. Easier on the tum.
Great idea!
I used to love sam but the more I watched your channel and then see hers it made me roll my eyes at her because she is very much feeding into the diet culture
🙁
I’ve been waiting for this! I used to love watching her but as i’ve evolved on my view of healthy eating, the more ehhhhh her language has been feeling for me…
I totally understand
Same
Can you do a video on "leaky gut" and whether there's any evidence for it as an actual condition?
I will put this on my list to discuss!
Leaking guts is life threatning and thankfully not common at all
@@sintara8442 that's not true. Many common digestive disorders display 'leaky gut' as a symptom (i.e coeliac disease) but leaky gut in and of itself is not inherently life threatening. Co-morbid symptoms are. Leaky gut syndrome on its own doesn't have any true scientific backing, only 'leaky' gut as a symptom.
I actually lost my last 10 lbs after I stopped breastfeeding. My theory is that my body needed the extra weight to produce milk.
Interesting!
Me too 👍🏼
Same here!
me too!!!
I am noticing the baby weight coming off faster now that I am breastfeeding less. I'm sure the rest will drop as I bring breastfeeding to a close.
Can you do a video on missfitandnerdy’s most recent video what I eat for fat loss? It’s sponsored by thryve “gut health” test and I’m very curious about how much of it is BS!
I'll have a look!
I really like your slogan "science and sass". Everything is better with a little bit of sass!
Agreed!
I was constantly complimented during my pregnancy for staying small and not gaining weight. Wanna know my secret? Here it is: I vomited CONSTANTLY! Sometimes 10-12 times a day! I vomited so much I went on medication. I vomited so much I had to go to urgent care because I hadn't peed for 24 hours. I vomited so much my iron levels plummeted to unsafe levels, and I had to fix 13 cavities in my back teeth. But I was THIN postpartum so I guess that means I was a model of pregnancy health after all 🙄
Oh wow, I’m so sorry for your experience!
I'm not even pregnant and I'm sitting here thinking about how I am going to 'get back my body' post partum. hurray for not worrying about weight loss or goals until winnings done with!
Omg same here girl! 😂👌🏻
I've been waiting for this one! Thank you for another thoughtful review :)
I would love to hear your take on Kelly Leveque, the creator of the Fab 4 smoothie Sam referenced.
I’ll have a look!
I’m so happy you reviewed her eating!! I used to watch Sam until I realized about 2 years ago how toxic she was in regards to “health” advice.
I hope the review was helpful!
FINALLY!!! I used to follow this woman when I was in college and now that i'm older I realize how many things are SO SO off about her channel - the toxic dieting, the horrible mis information on home buying process, the list goes on and on.
I just wish she would admit that she was able to manifest all of her home buying with the help of a very generous inheritance. It changed the way I look at her. I thought she was completely self made. Not true. it's great she used the money wisely. But if we all had the starter money she did, we would have an easier time to get as far as she is at her age.
Hello Abbey, would you be able to do a video speaking about leaky gut? Thank you
On my list to discuss!
Hey Abbey I NEVER NEVER EVER miss a video! 😂not first though
😊❤️
"Everyone and their pseudodoctor" I'm dead hahahaha
I never believe in herbal medicines until l met a friend of mine who was also cured with herbal medicine, l decided to give it a try by Contacting and ordering herbs from Dr ado on CZcams and behold within 13 days of using l was cured from HPV AND2 thank you so much Dr ado
She said, "which feels hella unrealistic as a mom" about the instagramable snack platter. 🤣🤣 So true!! I ain't got time for that.
😂 yup!
Hi Abby. I don't know if you recognize my handle but I really appreciate you taking a moment to even mention Ayurveda in this. I know a lot of these practices don't have like clinical trial style testing behind them, and I think it's important to express that as an influencer. I personally follow some Ayurvedic principles and practice in my own life. I love the system. I appreciate that you took the time to look into Ayurveda.
I ate more deep into a bikini contest prep 😳 love your videos especially the nutritional advice for pregnancy and post partum! In my first pregnancy right now 😊
lol the way you looked at the camera IMMEDIATELY when she said the word "clean"

I love how you mentioned that soup isn’t for everyone, my mother gets a lot of gut discomfort whenever she eats soup so she tends to avoid it.
For sure, glad that was helpful!
Where can I find more videos on gut health and everything you covered here. So helpful! Also I just read that the motor complex is when our stomach growls. If we eat before it growls are we missing the motor complex from sweeping?
So glad you did this one! I used to love her channel but I stopped watching after a while because her videos were packed with misinformation about certain foods, pushing intermittent fasting 24/7, and it seemed like EVERY video was like "how I'm losing baby weight!" and it just felt toxic.
Oh no, I'm so sorry it was triggering for you!
