    All Natalie’s videos on youtube are great. Even if I can’t get whole organic food all the time, these tips even help make some of the processed foods healthier.

    What about the phytoestrogen and other stuff in the soy. Isn’t that a cause for concern? Check out mercola’s video about soy…

    Soy should be fermented. Soy beans and soy milk are not so good, tofu is good, some tofu yoghurts or tempeh might be OK, if they are fermented.

    there are so many protein powders on the market. i use muscle milk. which one do you use?

    Yes but apparently the more processed soy is, the better, because of all the nasty stuff that it contains naturally. The fermenting process filters out all the dangerous anti-nutriens and toxins.

    I suppose it is difficult to address everybody at once on all levels. RE: FAT - It is good to excercise and keep in shape that way instead of buying all theses low calories products usualy distorted with some chemicals. Some processes of removing fat are actually damaging to food and give us problems instead of benefits.

    I’m for it, to a degree. The only forms of soy I consume and recommend are edamame (soybeans) and soymilk. I feel that all other forms are very processed, especially tofu.

    I do agree with your comment. I do purchase organic butter, cheese, etc. But there does have to be a balance in calories, especially for those trying to lose weight. I’m not suggesting at all that the alternative is nonfat spray or other manmade chemical-laden “calorie free” products, but rather natural alternatives.

    If you read up on hemp protein powder you’ll find it’s excellent. Supplements are always the second best option, first choice is eating the right foods. I still believe that most people can benefit from them though.

    It depends on what temperature you are cooking at and for how long. About halfway through before the mixture becomes bread texture, you can fold in the yogurt. I can’t guarantee that all the bacteria exists, but it certainly gives them a better chance of surviving through the temperature change. I still believe it’s a better choice than sourcream.

    Not all - soy flour, soybeans are not fermented products.

    But Natalie we do need fat in our diet. Organic butter is not unhealthy at all. Not everything is about calories or taste - this is a bit too biased for me, unless you targeting MacDonald public here. Other than that your video is full of good info as usual.

    All the stuff that you can buy in shops is fermented already, cos apparently before the fermentation it’s close to unfit for human consumption, and causes growth problems in animals.

    Right, I ca’t use soy at all, unless is fermented and then in very small amounts.

    Hey thanks for this video. I don’t like using protein powder and I’m surprised Natalie recommends it, but the other tips are great.
