0:00 hi i'm going to be reviewing random tiktok videos and youtube shorts is mcdonald's a good option are you all right can you just do me six plain burger patties on their own please i like how he says that it's a fact that it drives heart disease whereas in reality it's just a belief based on nothing a shit

[video] 0:28 Can I just ask as well, are they cooked in any oil? No, don't worry, there's no healthy polyunsaturated fat, just the saturated shit.

0:35 No healthy polyunsaturated fat, by which he means seed oils.

[video] 0:41 What I'm doing here is showing you you can still stay relatively healthy and stay on track, even at a place like McDonald's. Not content with trying to dissuade you from eating protective whole plant foods and trying to make you double down on saturated fat rich meat when every credible nutrition association tells you to limit...

0:57 That's a fallacious argument, seeing as you're simply saying that some people who work for some companies say that eating seeds and plants is healthy for humans. Who cares what they say? All that matters is what your instincts tell you.

[video] 1:18 saturated fat now he's telling you to eat the shittest meat of all i hate to say this but if you're gonna trust an uneducated scientifically illiterate yes you shouldn't eat at mcdonald's but it would be healthier than eating a vegan diet it's influencer over the experts and the scientific consensus i almost feel like

1:41 What scientific consensus, some epidemiological correlation, association studies are not scientific. That's your problem. You somehow never understood that.

[video] 1:56 You deserve what's coming to you.

1:59 Yes, we can agree on that. If you eat the way you eat, you deserve what's coming to you.

[video] 2:08 Does anybody actually buy this? I can't imagine it. I guess that a few people have, but must be very few.

2:13 Hench herbivore looks really unhealthy, actually sick.

2:31 He's on steroids, which is the only reason that he's able to maintain some muscle mass. But who cares? Nobody wants to take his advice just because of how ill he looks.

[video] 2:47 When we were all in the caves, half of everyone born was dead before the age of 30. Jesus. Fast forward to...

3:01 Why would you die before 30? He didn't give an actual reason.

[video] 3:07 1840. Sure. That number went up to 35. What?

3:15 There's tons of records of people living to 140, even beyond 150, two, 300 years ago. Why would you die at 35? You're just living and then you drop dead for no reason. What is he talking about? I don't know what he means. He's not giving an actual argument.

[video] 3:35 Half of everyone born was dead by the time they were 35.

3:38 So... Why? Why would you die at 35?

[video] 3:44 And the guy is nodding. I guess that he's agreeing with him.

3:47 What are you talking about? Does anybody understand him?

4:06 There's tons of people who lived to way beyond 100, hundreds, thousands of years ago. If you don't want to believe in the historical records, that's fine. It's just beliefs. But why would you then believe that people died at 35?

4:26 And just don't believe any of it, but then give an actual argument as to why somebody would just die at 35.

[video] 4:33 By the way, everyone back then was eating organic. Just saying. And the water was clear, the air ran pure.

4:45 Yes, that's why they lived more than double as long as we do today. Of course, if you... Trust, which you shouldn't necessarily, but if you want to trust all of the historical records, then all over the earth, people lived, as I said, more than double as long as we do.

[video] 5:07 The game was free range. Didn't make a damn bit of difference. Science matters here. You're directing this at me as if I'm RFK Jr. I'm not.

5:16 What science? You're just talking about beliefs anyway. This is the opposite of science.

[video] 5:24 Yes, but still, 35? Still doesn't make any sense. We understand that he meant the average.

[video] 5:45 But again, that's not science, that's a belief. The germ theory is a so-called theory, and it's not even really that, it's more so a hypothesis.

6:12 And can you even call it that? It's really just a religious belief because it has never been proven in a scientific experiment. Never. To this day in 2026, we have no proof for it. It's just a belief, the opposite of science.

[video] 6:26 ...on cadavers and then immediately going to deliver babies without washing their hands. But even if...

6:33 no really that cannot be that's what all animals do but yes they all die from the invisible germs the boogeyman if you made it past childhood you could still die of what a tooth infection gangrene i don't know everything back then sounds awful and i will stick with modernity Out of 10. Okay, bye. Absolutely everything was better back in the day. Everybody was healthier, happier. People lived longer lives. There's just nothing that you could possibly name that is better today.

[video] 7:14 I'm 6'7", 245 pounds. And this is my dad. You drink your milk when you were younger? Yeah, I'd had my share. How old are you? 66. Looking pretty good for 66. Gotta get some more exercise in, but yeah. Why do you think...

7:26 Gotta get more exercise. Nobody ever used to say that up until 10 years ago. Now everybody believes that they have a stress deficiency. It's got so tall.

[video] 7:39 Good food, good living. I think your mom had a lot to do with it.

7:42 Good food, good living. Okay. Some of the foods that we would eat.

[video] 7:47 What you would need would be sugar, refined foods. I can't remember if I ever had a pop when I was younger. None of that. The one up I had, and look how tall I am. That's funny.

7:58 It would have been more interesting to hear what he actually did consume. a lot of milk, meat, eggs. Not eating junk food helped for sure, but you won't grow that tall just because you avoid grain sludge and all kinds of poisonous plants. You actually need to consume healthy foods to develop a strong and also a tall body, which is partly inherited, obviously, Maybe from the mom's side, maybe there were a lot of tall men in the family. But I've seen a lot of cases where the children grow taller than the father. It happens.

[video] 8:47 I'm going to make some noodle soup. My friend just gave me a bag of stinging.

8:51 What?

8:55 What a great friend. A bag of green poisonous leaves that will sting you. Nutritious?

[video] 9:03 What does that even really mean? You don't even know yourself. It's just green poisonous leaves that sting you.

9:20 They taste horrible for a reason.

[video] 9:23 They have little stingers under their leaves, but you can eat them fresh without getting stung by just kind of rolling them up and shoving them in your mouth. They taste good.

9:31 Okay, they don't taste good. I don't know why you lie. Is it just for the video? Nobody believes that green leaves taste good, no matter what kind of green leaves you're talking about.

[video] 9:42 Like springy and fresh, but we're not going to eat all these raw. First, we're going to rinse them.

9:47 Yes, but if they taste good, if it's food, why don't you eat them raw? That's the question.

[video] 9:52 And while I cook, I might as well make a cup of nettle tea. Ow, I got a sting. Fine, I'll use a glove.

[video] 10:01 First, we prep the nettles. Salted boiling water. We blanch them. for like 20 seconds and then straight into ice water this way they'll be cooked but their color stays nice and bright now they shouldn't sting anymore we're gonna make like a basic potato leek soup except we only have this one crusty leek and there was none at the store it'll be fine the nettle is a nutritive herb which means that its powers come from just how much nutrition is in the plant it is classed as a superfood and i would say it's a famine food too it has a really high protein wait wait wait what did she just call it a famine food let me go back She said famine food, no? Which is what I always say. This is what you would maybe eat during a famine.

10:47 I can't believe that she actually said that.

[video] 10:50 A really high protein content. It has three or four times as much iron as spinach. So I don't know why Popeye wasn't eating nettles. They're exceptionally high in calcium.

10:58 Popeye wasn't eating nettles because people are afraid of eating nettles. And Popeye was eating spinach because it's a cartoon that was created to manipulate children into eating vegetables. which are poisonous for the most part.

[video] 11:17 calcium magnesium potassium and trace minerals and they're packing a weirdly high amount of some harder to get vitamins particularly vitamin a retinol really good for like your eye health your cell function and also a strangely high amount of vitamin k which is very uncommon particularly in vegetables and it's really important for like bone health and wound healing really anti-inflammatory really good for your blood sugar but then they've also got like vitamin c vitamin e some b vitamin and we're literally just spraying roundup on them only a conspiracy theorist but like okay i'm gonna solve

11:44 This is the problem nowadays. People just read something online. Oh, vitamin A, K, where are those vitamins? Well, I don't know. They must be in those green poisonous leaves. And then they eat that imagining that their skin and their bones will be healthy. You're eating green leaves. Look at the reality of what's going on. Stop imagining something.

[video] 12:11 This really well. Let it cook down. Oh, my eyes. Ah! Cover it with the broth so that you don't taste it. Exactly, as always. Every video of these idiots eating green leaves and seeds

12:42 It's the same, they just cover up the taste because they hate all of it. Because it is famine food.

[video] 12:50 Some heavy cream, duh.

12:52 Fats are important so we get all the new... God damn it, that looks super disgusting. That reminds me of that video where those kids were making kale soup. That was a nightmare.

[video] 13:04 Kale soup time! She is out of the nettles. And now we put in the nettles. This couldn't have come at a better time because honestly I'm teetering on the edge of burnout. Plants tend to come to you exactly.

13:14 Wow, I can't man. Nobody wants to eat some green soup slime, whatever that's supposed to be. You're crazy. when you need them and nettle is so nutritive that it's known as a vitality tonic it's cooling which helps reduce inflammation and symptoms of burnout and happens to be traditionally used to reverse exhaustion and support the adrenals yeah the adrenals because it's poisonous you will have a so-called adrenalized body that's not a good sign it means that it's a stimulant stimulants are not good for you they just make you stressed

[video] 13:55 It tastes just like a bright, fresh...

13:57 Shut the f*** up, man. Nobody believes you.

[video] 14:00 Potato leek soup. And could I have just used spinach? Sure. But is spinach a magical stinging superfood that came to me in my time of need? No. This chart shows brain size over the course of evolution. So our brains got way bigger and now...

14:16 Yes, but this is just something that people imagine. It's not as if there's any proof for that.

[video] 14:22 Yes, and that's because humans are degenerating. I do believe that our brains are shrinking and that's because the whole skull and really the whole body is shrinking faster

14:50 The bodies are becoming more narrow. You can see this all around you, but it's still just a belief.

[video] 14:56 ...compared to our body size, which should be an issue because the bigger brains require a lot of energy. Up to 20% of your body's total energy. That's a lot of energy for one organ. A shorter digestive tract can't really support that. So scientists think that we outsourced some of the work to fire. Cooking food breaks down starches and unravels proteins, making it easier to die.

15:14 those proteins, those animations. I love these videos. And it breaks them down. It doesn't just destroy the foods. No, because cooking, heat, fire brings you life and vitality. It doesn't do the opposite.

[video] 15:36 This is a widely accepted theory about how we got big brains. But the problem is, this leap happened long before we have any physical evidence that our ancestors could control.

15:45 You have no evidence anyway.

[video] 15:49 So there's still a lot of scientific questions here, including... What scientific questions?

15:55 You're talking about beliefs, for the most part religious beliefs.

[video] 16:00 This now. Our brains are getting smaller, but maybe smaller is better? To learn more, subscribe.

16:07 How is smaller better? I don't know what she means. I don't even care. I don't want to find out. But smaller, when it comes to your brain, your skull, your overall body cannot be better. You're weaker. You are arguably dumber. We can assume that if your brain is smaller. And this is very visible.

16:32 I better not say that. Whatever, my point is simply that nobody wants to have this kind of a body because then life becomes hard. It's harder to survive, to reproduce also. Everything is harder. Maybe she came up with some stupid idea that it's somehow better for us to have smaller skulls and also brains, but... You could only come to this kind of a conclusion with a smaller brain, ironically.

[video] 17:05 Three snacks I would never give my kids as an environmental scientist. Number one, chicken nuggets. They say they're 100% natural, but these chicken parts are chlorine bathed with soybean oil.

17:15 How can they say that when it's a manmade food? Makes no sense. The word natural doesn't mean anything nowadays, especially when it comes to food labels.

[video] 17:25 The vegetable oil, the cornstarch and these preservatives, this is not going to fuel your child's body. Phosphate is hard on your liver. It's going to steal from it. Number two, tater tots. Yes, there's potatoes in here, but there's soap in vegetable oil. This is poison to your child's body, affecting your metabolism. It's even linked to fat storage, causing low grade inflammation and even weight gain in your child. It even has preservatives. My kid asked for these as a snack food. I'd throw them in the garbage before I put them on their plate.

17:47 Okay, that's great. I don't know this guy. I wonder what he does actually feed his children. I don't think that it's much of a discovery that there's seed oils or so-called vegetable oils in all of these foods nowadays. Is this really a surprise to anybody watching this? Not to my audience, for sure. I guess that maybe regular people are unaware.

[video] 18:17 Number three, goldfish. Baked, natural colors, 100% cheddar cheese. It looks healthy, but it's not. It contains...

18:23 But it doesn't even look healthy and some kind of foods from a package will not be healthy unless you put raw meat inside of the package.

[video] 18:34 bioengineered ingredients, a cocktail of vegetable seed oils, which we know aren't good for your...

18:39 Yes, and it's inside of most of the fake foods nowadays. You could go to any of the fake foods in the supermarket and you would find seed oils in probably most of them. Why just pick out three of them?

18:59 I guess that it's an okay video for regular people, but really you should just go to supermarket and say that you shouldn't eat most of what is found in supermarkets nowadays. That's what I would do if I would create such a video. That's why the video is a little bit useless.

[video] 19:21 Your child, and on top of that, more phosphate-based preservatives. Instead, offer them beef jerky, beef sticks, crack...

19:27 Beef jerky, beef sticks, it's better, obviously, but beef jerky has salt, which is toxic, but also all kinds of other toxic ingredients. Why not just tell people to eat whole foods?

[video] 19:46 Peppers and cheese are great. Different raw nuts and seeds.

19:50 Raw nuts and seeds. Seeds. Seeds are not good for you.

19:58 and some dried fruit. These are going to fuel them. He tells people not to consume seed oils, but then tells them to eat seeds, which have the seed oils inside of them. Makes sense.

[video] 20:11 Body, brain and metabolism. And trust me, if they're hungry enough, they're going to eat it. Here's why I stopped eating grass fed beef.

20:19 This should be interesting.

[video] 20:20 Most people see grass fed on the label and assume it's automatically healthier. But here's what almost nobody is telling you. In 2016, the USDA removed the official definition of the term grass-fed. How nice. That, of course, changed everything. Because once the definition disappeared, the label became far less meaningful. And the beef industry, those guys know this. Many cattle sold as grass-fed may spend part of their life on a pasture, but in the final months before slaughter, some are moved into feedlots, where they are...

20:49 Right, I'm sure that a lot of people who eat meat, especially raw meat, are aware of this, but it's good that he's informing the rest.

[video] 20:59 That large amount of what's called DDGS, dried distiller grains with solubles. DDGS is essentially the junk that's left over after corn has been processed and turned into fuel. Yuck. That means every bite of grass-fed beef you consume, you are essentially eating this DDGS toxic fuel byproduct.

21:19 Not every bite, why does he say that? But it's common and they feed all of the animals, also chickens and pigs, all kinds of garbage, of course, waste products, stuff that humans wouldn't eat. Humans wouldn't even really be able to eat a lot of that expired items.

[video] 21:47 Yes. In addition, the nutritional profile can be very different than truly grass-fed beef. So when you buy grass-fed beef, look for these three words. First, 100% grass-fed, 100% grass-finished, or even better, look for third-party certifications like the American Grass-Fed Association.

22:06 Grass-fed, grass-finished, even better, just find some farm. Thankfully, there are still many out there nowadays. and just talk to the people who work on the farm, ask them about the animals, what they get fed, and if they get any you know what. That's also important. That's more important, actually. And if they don't, then you hit the jackpot, then just buy the meat from them or ideally just get wild meat. That's also not that hard.

[video] 22:42 Because this healthy grass-fed beef filled with leftover corn fuel can be hard on your liver, kidneys, and lymph. This guy was attempting to impress his daughters with his physique, but it quickly backfired.

22:57 Natural reactions.

[video] 23:05 What?

[video] 23:12 A couple of nights ago, I was called immediately into the trauma bay for an elderly man in severe respiratory distress. His lungs were failing, his oxygen levels were in the 70s despite maximal support, and his blood pressure was 77 or 34. He had an advance directive, do not resuscitate, do not intubate. I spoke with his daughter who wanted to call the rest of the family so that they could come say goodbye, but he was deteriorating really quickly and I didn't think that he would make it. So while we kept him comfortable with morphine and lorazepam, I asked the daughter for permission to start a norepinephrine infusion just enough to support his blood pressure so the family could arrive an hour later.

23:43 It's interesting how nowadays in hospitals their first thought is to give the so-called patients all kinds of drugs.

23:55 It's not as if it was that different decades ago, but when you look back even further, so to speak, then we can see that hospitals used to actually heal people instead of just covering up the symptoms, which is mainly what they do today. Of course, surgeries are still very useful. That's clear. But pumping a guy full of drugs, painkillers is obviously not going to help him. It cannot even.

[video] 24:34 Later, my patient's wife, children, and grandchildren made it in. I gave them time and space to settle in and spend time together, and when they were ready, we gave them more medication for comfort, and then I turned off the oxygen in the norepinephrine infusion pump, and his blood pressure dropped immediately and his breathing slowed down. The family was gathered around him, his wife held his hand, his children stroked his head while soft music played in the background, and then gradually, his breathing stopped. I went in, checked a pulse, listened for breath sounds, and then I said a few words and asked for a moment of silence. And in that silence, there were quiet sobs and I found myself thinking how incredibly lucky this man was. I never got to know him, but you don't leave this world surrounded like that unless you've spent a lifetime building something real because you can't fake that kind of love.

25:15 Sure, you could say that it's real. It's not imaginary. The people are there and you can sense that they really care. But the thing is that He still died, it doesn't matter to him seeing as he's dead. If there's people around him crying, I don't understand the jealousy part.

[video] 25:43 And in a moment like this, your career, your achievements, your money, none of it matters.

25:49 Right, but none of that ever matters because it doesn't exist. It's all imaginary. Your achievements, what your world records, where are they in your mind? Your money, the career, where is it? Can I smell it, touch it? No, it's imaginary. That never mattered. And when you are very sick or when you're about to die anyway, then you realize that oftentimes, oftentimes people really snap back into this reality. And then they realize that everything that they were imagining in their life never actually mattered. And then what matters is what is real. And your body is real. And that's why...

26:43 I don't understand how you could be jealous of him as such, as far as the family goes and everything, sure. If that's the message, I get it.

[video] 26:54 And it made me wonder if we've completely misunderstood what success actually is.

26:58 Yes, we have, exactly. How do you achieve something in this reality? By actually doing something physically. not by imagining something, which is what most people do today. If that's what you actually realize, then great, but I don't think so.

[video] 27:19 Because if I even have one or two people at my side when my time comes, I'll feel incredibly lucky and I'll know that I did something right.

27:28 Yes, when you're sick and you're conscious that you're actually dying, then... If there's people around you, then you can at least understand that they care about you. That's cool, but it would be even better if you would be healthy. And if it wouldn't get to that point, then you would really know that you did something right. If you would actually die from so-called natural causes beyond the age of 100, Then I would say that you actually did something right.

[video] 28:06 Check this out. This guy was convinced 23andMe wasn't legit.

28:10 No. Why did he think that?

[video] 28:13 He decided to take some of the saliva from his lizard and send in some...

28:19 They have also done this with... Cats, dogs, pigs, you name it. I made a whole video about it not that long ago. If you're a girl and you want to send in your DNA sample, then you could also ask your boyfriend to send in his sample instead. And they will come back with the result that your boyfriend is you. It's all nonsense. Lizard DNA. Just try it. My point is that they base it on the information that they have on you, seeing as you're not allowed to send in blind samples. And obviously he didn't send in his lizard's DNA because we haven't observed such a thing as DNA. It's something that you imagine.

[video] 29:14 Now, see what Tweety3andMe comes back with. And you would be shocked. It comes back with a makeup of 40% Iranian, Caucasian.

29:27 I'm not shocked whatsoever.

29:31 Yeah, but people who have no idea about it may find this interesting.

[video] 29:36 6%, you know, whatever, all the different percentages showing all the different places that you'd come from, even like what kind of food you'd like, what area you've come from. It's a lizard. It's a lizard.

29:50 As we can see, most people nowadays misuse the word science. You should be talking about your knowledge, what you actually know, when you talk about science, but most people talk about their beliefs when they talk about science, and beliefs are the opposite of science. Unfortunately, most people don't realize this nowadays. When you talk about science, then you should be talking about what you sense, because otherwise you're automatically talking about beliefs. And that's why when you talk about the supposed brain size, how long people used to live, then you're of course talking about beliefs which have nothing to do with science, seeing as you cannot actually do scientific experiments

30:46 to know how long people used to live, how big their skulls were. But you can do a lot of research, you can gather beliefs, you can think about all of these topics. I'm not saying that you shouldn't do that, but you should realize that none of it has anything to do with science. Thanks for watching.
