overeating is not just triggered by  the msg and sugar and processed foods  

it’s triggered by the flavorings you know nowadays  nothing tastes like anything anymore things  

becoming more bland okay tomatoes for example just  completely void and empty of any nutrition it’s  

like eating like nothing yet i remember growing  up taking this tomato from our garden it was just  

incredible you know i did a trip a while ago to  italy and um i heard about these tomatoes they  

were so amazing right and we were going on a food  tour so we had to meet at this court courtyard  

so as we’re waiting for the tour guide i  look across the street and there was a little  

little shop that had vegetables so i walked  over there and i noticed they had some tomatoes  

and so i bought a little bag i mean it must have  been probably the equivalent of two tomatoes but  

it was these small little tomatoes so i started  eating them and they were delicious it was amazing  

the flavor the taste of those tomatoes  so i come back to my wife karen and i’m  

like you’re not gonna believe how delicious these  tomatoes were she goes did you bring me any i go  

uh actually i ate them all um but here’s  the point i was so satisfied i was so  

filled when i went on the tour i literally  couldn’t eat anything else because i was so  

filled up why because of the nutrients in those  tomatoes i don’t know if you know this but  

for example chicken breast okay you’d buy chicken  breasts at the store skinless chicken breasts did  

you realize they have to now put chicken flavor  in the chicken to make it taste like chicken  

or else it’ll just taste like nothing in fact  next time you buy chicken look at the label you’ll  

see chicken chicken broth and flavorings okay  they’re trying to make it taste like chicken the  

flavorings trigger eating okay it makes you want  to eat them in fact it gives you a lot of pleasure  

the problem is that there’s empty calories  in that processed food there’s low nutrients  

and because there’s low nutrients when you’re  going to eat way more than you normally would  

not to mention the sugar the msg the fat the salt  and all that that’s a whole different thing now  

flavors are really a survival mechanism in  nature the foods with the highest nutrients  

have the most flavors so you’re attracted  to those flavors you’ll end up getting the  

most nutrients and you’ll survive better but  now we have this artificial flavoring thing  

and even though it’s natural flavorings the  brain doesn’t know the difference so this is  

why you are addicted to those chips late at night  now if you do the keto desserts or snacks okay  

you may have already found that out because  it’s very difficult to consume a lot of keto  

desserts or those keto bombs and yes they have a  lot of fat but there’s also more nutrients they’re  

not empty which is a good thing so that’s why you  can get by with having just a small amount of this  

if you’re new to this concept i challenge you  to make a substitution for these dessert and  

sweet foods things like that and start doing  keto friendly low carb nutrient dense like  

snacks or desserts of course you’d want to  eat the snack at the meal not in between  

so your focus should be not just on flavors  but the nutrients and that way you can actually  

have this turn off mechanism and actually be  satisfied which is going to be a very good thing

hey before you go real quick i have  a course entitled how to bulletproof  

your immune system it’s a free course  i want you to take it and here’s why  

here’s you here is your environment everyone  is focused on this over here avoiding  

your environment but what about here what about  strengthening your immune system that’s what’s  

missing this course will show you how to  bulletproof yourself and so you can tolerate  

and resist your environment much better by  strengthening your own immune system i put
