if you were to instead add guacamole

every day to your diet you would be much

much better off so let’s talk about it

so I just love avocados and especially

guacamole on my eggs on my burger on

other Foods put it on the salad I use

keto chips or keto crackers and that’s

really the biggest problem with

guacamole is how do you consume it with

a chip that is you know it’s not filled

with corn and corn oil and vegetable

oils that are highly inflammatory right

that’s the problem with guacamole you’re

at a restaurant and um what are you

going to eat it with a spoon well you

know people like those chips and then

they start feeling pain and inflammation

in their joints and so if you consumed

it with healthier foods you would be

actually in really good shape but

guacamole has some really good things in

it that I want to talk about and I will

put a really good recipe down below

exactly how to make it it’s really

really simple so let’s start with the

avocado why are they so healthy right

everyone keeps talking about this

monounsaturated fatty acid right it’s

the same fat in olive oil and apparently

it’s really good for insulin resistance

and supporting a healthy heart so

avocados have like 71 percent

monounsaturated fatty acids and olive

oil has roughly about the same but just

FYI lard is about 50 percent

monounsaturated talo which is beef fat

is about 50 percent

monounsaturated and butter has about 29

percent of it monounsaturated fatty

acids without getting too distracted I

just want to mention one thing about

saturated fats every single study that

I’ve seen that state that saturated fats

are bad for your heart etc etc

are not differentiating between the high

fat diet and the high carbohydrate diet

they all come with high carbohydrates so

how can anyone say that it’s the fat

that’s causing the damage and not the

high carb or even the combination of

both which creates glycation which is a

kind of The Binding of your fats with

your proteins creating a big problem

with your heart and your eyes and it

plugs everything up there is a very

huge study involving 135

000 Canadians okay and they looked at

the difference between what happens when

you eat a low carb versus a high fat

diet and which one of those is more

significant in relationship to mortality

and this is what they found it’s the

lowering of the carbohydrates

not the lowering of fat will extend your

life I mean significant like 23 lower

risk of dying and also an 18 lowering

risk of getting a stroke which is pretty

significant but consuming avocados and

other fats on a healthy Keto Plan with

intermittent fasting it does several

things it helps make you more satisfied

it allows you to fast longer which will

then really get you into ketosis much

better because it’s that frequent hunger

and frequent eating that really kind of

raises insulin so this is one of the big

reasons why you want to add fat to your

meal so you can fast longer and avocados

are a great way to do it avocados have a

lot of other things as well

phytonutrients they also have

glutathione which is a very powerful

antioxidant for your liver they have

carotenoids that help your vision and

also to prevent macular degeneration

avocados are good for inflammation and

your arteries in your brain and so

overall it’s a very healthy food next

ingredient is lime or lemon okay I’ve

done a lot of videos on this first of

all if you actually have a lime or a

lemon and you just put that on it

instead of the juice you get a good

amount of vitamin C okay so that’s one

thing number two you get citric acid

that can actually prevent kidney stones

if you’re on the ketogenic plan that

could be a potential problem for some

people who are at risk but not if you

drink enough water like 2.5 liters per

day as well as having citrates citrates

bind with the oxalates and prevent those

stones also vitamin C is good to prevent

fat from accumulating in your liver it’s

good for the liver in general and it’s

also good for overall weight loss okay

we have avocados lime or lemon and then

sea salt right sea salt has like at

least 84 different minerals all the main

minerals plus a lot of trace minerals

that are hard to get in our foods and if

you’re on the ketogenic plan you

definitely need more sea salt if you’re

deficient in salt you’ll feel weaker

okay that’s one of the common symptoms

if you’re concerned about too much

sodium there’s a great type of salt that

is lower in sodium but higher in these

other minerals I’ll put that link down

below and then we have the Tomato you

know there’s a lot of different

varieties or types of tomato nowadays

unfortunately in the grocery store

they’re just basically you know

tasteless but if you get a good tomato

and put in your guacamole it can really

help you with many different things and

one being lycopene lycopene is a

phytonutrient that’s really good for the

heart it’s an anti-inflammatory it’s

good to protect your skin from

ultraviolet radiation it can act as a

sunscreen it also has anti-cancer

properties and is good for your bone and

then we get to the onion and if you can

get a red onion it’s a little bit better

because it’s going to be higher in this

main phytonutrient called quercetin

quercetin or Kirsten however you

pronounce it

is a very interesting compound

especially for allergies lowering

histamines but anything related to

allergies it’s really good hay fever

things like that it’s also good for

lowering blood pressure it’s good for

gout it’s really good for your immune

system and it can even decrease your

risk of certain types of cancer and if

you can’t get red onions just do any

onions because all onions have this

compound but red tends to have more and

also onions are really high in vitamin C

this is why the used to way back when

they had a scurvy the sailors used to

consume onions to get their full vitamin

C complex onions also with this next

ingredient garlic really help your liver

complete this phase one phase two

detoxification right which is really

important in converting poisons to

harmless particles so they go from fat

soluble chemicals and toxins to

water-soluble chemicals the main

phytonutrient that a lot of people know

about is Allison and this compound does

a lot garlic is the heavy hitter with so

many things especially antimicrobial so

if you have you know parasites or too

much of the wrong unfriendly pathogens

in your body whether it’s virus or

bacteria or a fungus or Yeast or mold or

candida boy garlic is what you need to

take garlic could be considered a

natural antibiotic but without the side

effects garlic also is great to act as a

natural blood thinner so it’s really

good for the heart it’s really good to

lower your blood pressure it’s really

good to prevent cancer and it’s also

good for your gut microbes it’s also a

potent anti-inflammatory so if you can

just stick that in any different types

of foods that you’re eating the more the

better and then we come to another

ingredient in guacamole called cilantro

cilantro has some really interesting

things as well specifically to protect

the liver again against heavy metals

okay so connect to bind with these heavy

metals and act as a natural chelator

which means to claw or to bind and to

pull out these heavy metals cilantro

also has been studied for seizures

because it has anti-convulsant

properties which is interesting so as

you can see guacamole is

a great heavy hitter of something that

can improve your health so if you were

to consume that every day on your Foods

uh this is what would happen number one

your blood sugars would be much better

because you would be able to fast longer

you would have an improved

cardiovascular system

you would have less pathogens in your

body you would have a stronger immune

system you would definitely have more

energy and less inflammation and all of

this on top of the benefits of being on

the healthy version of Keto and

intermittent fasting I think hands down

guacamole is something that you should

include on a regular basis so please

comment Down Below on your thoughts

about guacamole in general if you like

it and since I talked about putting

guacamole on a burger you should really

check out this video I did on one of the

healthiest foods which happens to be the

burger I put it up right here
