you know I’ve done videos on some of

these fake Meats fake cheese fake eggs

and in this video I want to share with

you my thoughts on why it’s really never

going to go mainstream recently I was at

an outdoor restaurant and um

I saw on the sign it said Burgers right

so I ordered a burger and she says you

know that’s it’s a vegan burger and I

said no thank you she said no no they’re

really really healthy I mean everyone’s

doing them I said no thank you if you

don’t have any real meat

um what else do you have and they said

well we have omelets with real eggs

perfect

so I ordered the omelette with feta

cheese I quickly realized there was

something not right because my my throat

was itching and I was like what the heck

is going on with my throat and um

it was real eggs but the feta cheese was

fake cheese okay and so I went up to the

person and I said what are the

ingredients you guys serve real cheese

or is it some other ingredients and then

they showed me the ingredients of the

cheese and this is what it had it had

canola oil which is super processed

highly inflammatory it also had tofu

which is not a fermented product it also

had soy protein which of course is GMO

and highly processed it had something

called bottleized yeast which no one

knows what’s in that and then another

ingredient called carrageenan okay so

any one of those ingredients could

create an irritation in my throat and I

don’t know exactly which one it was but

my body totally let me know don’t eat

that so what’s gonna happen over time as

more and more people are testing out

some of these alternative animal

products their health is going to suffer

because the ingredients are not healthy

I think a lot of people have bought the

Kool-Aid that beef is a very unhealthy

food and it’s destroying the planet and

we must get rid of cows and of course

I’m not talking about the factory

farming cows I’m talking about Farmers

that actually let their cows graze on

pasture I mean what is wrong with 100

grass-fed beef uh it’s actually a super

healthy food and it’s extremely healthy

for the environment before we get into

that I want to mention something about

the impossible burger and I think

there’s another one called Beyond Burger

so here’s a list of the ingredients in

the impossible Burger soy protein

isolates which again are GMO you also

have potato protein okay I mean how much

protein is in a potato and is it really

complete or partial protein or amino

acids it also has cultured dextrose okay

so we have this cultured synthetic sugar

we also have modified food starch and

just so you know modified food starch is

maltodextrin okay it’s

higher than sugar on the glycemic index

so we’re going to add this sugar to the

protein not a good combination it also

has something called methyl cellulose

okay that is for texture and who knows

what that’s going to do in your gut

microbes it’s definitely a synthetically

made product

and it’s processed and it’s inflammatory

but they have to use it to give you the

texture of meat then you have another

ingredient called soy leg hemoglobin now

what the heck is that

well it’s basically a bioengineered

protein from soy which gives you the

taste of meat the texture of meat but

it’s not meat and because it’s not

really classified as a food it’s not

recognized as being safe there’s really

no long-term safety studies so who knows

what it’s going to do to the population

then we have another burger called the

Beyond Burger and this one we have pea

protein isolates very highly processed

protein out of peas and if I’m not

mistaken the way that they process it

they have to use things like hexane just

like they do in canola oil and other

seed oils but the point is they’re not

just taking peace from the farm and you

know making this in the burger they’re

actually turning it into a highly

processed product and of course canola

oil which is another GMO oil and then

rice protein and then mung bean protein

and then we have to add the methyl

cellulose which we’ve just mentioned

before and to put the ice cream the cake

we have potato starch just to make it

taste a little bit better so we mix this

starch or sugar with the protein and we

get this glycation not good for your

body you see in regular grass-fed beef

you don’t have potato starch you don’t

have seed oils you don’t have to add

things that give it texture so

unfortunately you’re in a big experiment

right now so as far as sustainability

they’re not sustainable for your health

and they’re not sustainable for the

environment but the bigger message of

this video is something that’s very very

important what is it about cows that are

grazing in the pasture that is so

healthy well um I want to show you this

book right here this book called soil

grass and cancer okay

cost me 250 it’s it’s like you can’t

find something uh Kindle this is the

link between human and animal health and

mineral balance of the soil okay I read

this I’m on my second time through it’s

a fascinating uh book on the

relationship between what’s going on in

soil what’s going on in the plant what’s

going on in the animal and then how that

relates to our human bodies as far as

our health if there’s something missing

in this chain it can greatly affect our

health I mean if you think about if you

take um land let’s take the worst case

scenario like you have just dirt right I

mean there’s no fertility in that soil

how are you going to make that soil

fertile you can’t do it without putting

an animal on that land so cows are the

best way to make soil very very fertile

and how do they do that well through a

cow pie okay manure the cow pie is the

ultimate fertilizer it’s loaded with

nitrogen

phosphorus potassium that goes right

back in the soil it also has carbon that

is put back into the soil as well

but more than all of those things it

puts the microbes back in the soil but

it’s really the concentration the

density of those microbes in the soil

that makes the plant nutrient dense the

animal nutrient dense

it all comes from the microbe now I

recently did a video on this one topic

and I interviewed Dr James White who has

his PhD in plant biology and it’s

fascinating discussion because the way

that a plan gets its nutrients is

through the microbes dissolving minerals

from rocks and then exchanging with the

plant root carbohydrates that feed the

microbe and then the microbes give the

plant nutrients like certain minerals

but there’s something new that I just

learned that just was actually

mind-blowing there’s another mechanism

where a plant gets its nutrients it’ll

actually attract microbes and suck the

microbe right into the root and into the

plant and extract nutrients from the

microbe like nitrogen phosphorus and

other minerals so in other words it’s

not just the exchange of microbes at the

root level it’s actually pulling the

microbe in taking out the nutrients and

then pushing this microbe back out into

the soil to recycle and get more

nutrition to bring it right back in

there’s a whole machine going on in the

soil level that that plant is dependent

on that microbe and that’s called the

rhizoph phagy cycle rhizo meaning roots

and phagy meaning eat so the roots that

eat microbes that pull the nutrition in

there so to create Health we need

nutrient dense foods okay and the only

way to get the nutrient dense foods is

to consume food that’s grown on nutrient

dense soils and so I will guarantee the

plants that are in the impossible burger

that are in the fake cheese that are on

the Beyond Burger are using genetically

modified things which then inhibit this

microbial growth I mean even take a look

at glyphosate right which is a Roundup

Ready they classified that as an

antibiotic what do you think that does

to the soil microbial life and so if you

haven’t seen my video on some recent

mind-blowing research

comparing grass-fed grass-finished beef

to grain-fed beef

you have to check that out I put it up

right here
