hey dr. Burke here in this video we’re

going to talk about protein and the

different types of protein I always get

this question what type of protein

should I consume and so let me just kind

of go through some things with you we

have red meat right here and this

conclude lamb and beef and bison there’s

some positives to this number one it’s a

complete protein and there’s very few

people who have allergies against this

meat the negatives are that it’s a

little bit harder to digest for some

people if they get a little older okay

because their stomachs you have to it

takes a good digestive system to digest

red meats one way that you can do this

is just to chew it longer and also have

a smaller piece instead of a texas-style

steak okay do you drawback is that not

all of its usable or bioavailable so we

can we digest a good portion but not the

whole thing there’s other types of

protein that are a little bit more

bioavailable but this is not a bad thing

people are freaked out about it but

really what you should be freaked out

about is the commercial factory farm

beef because there are so many

antibiotics hormones and even the the

grains that they feed these animals are

all GMO especially you’d like the soy in

the corn so you need if you’re going to

consume red meat you’re gonna have to do

the grass-fed or organic or high that

has a higher omega-3 fatty acid or

pasture-raised

okay so that’s the best way to consume

meat but the problem is going to a

restaurant so be careful with that

because of those antibiotics poultry

chicken turkey easier to digest less

expensive than red meat unless it’s

organic you’re getting a large amount of

arsenic and formaldehyde I’m sorry

that’s where your guess what’s in there

they use fill-out formaldehyde for the

feed for poultry as a binder and it’s

legal I don’t know why they’re even

using prozac for these chickens to chill

them out so they’re the de meat is not

as more tender because we’re so stressed

out because they’re factory

and a histamines benadryl caffeine this

is crazy so when you go out to dinner

and you consume chicken or you go to a

fast food place or you go to the grocery

store realize that unless you’re doing

the organic you’re getting all this crap

in here so organic is non-gmo feeds

free-range you know use smaller farms

like a small farmer like from a local

place that is around your your

neighborhood is a lot better and then

I’m going to talk about eggs down here

but I just want to mention since they’re

connected is it the chicken of the egg

well let’s talk about the chicken egg

yolks are very very healthy for you

it’s almost as if it’s a a multivitamin

mineral and eggs are probably the most

perfect food you can eat you can pretty

much live on eggs but a problem the

problem is you want to have them organic

if the egg yolk is organic and pasture

raised if it’s really good and it’s and

these chickens are eating I found the

grass and other types of feed that’s not

all grain GMO grain then the yolks will

be very bright orange okay so I think

there’s a really good what’s called the

Shenandoah Valley eggs if I’m not

mistaken I’ll actually put a link down

here I’ll go I’ll actually find that the

type of eggs that I eat and I’ll put a

little link underneath it but anyway we

have the egg yolks should be bright and

when you crack them this should be kind

of hard to break

not so flimsy and easy that just means

there’s more calcium in the shells okay

egg yolks that are grass-fed had a lot

of vitamin k2 that’s good for the

arteries and then one of the best

quality proteins very nutrient-dense but

if it’s not organic there’s a lot of

antibiotics and hormones okay so again

we want the grass-fed I like the small

farms it’s a little more expensive but

if you’re paying even five dollars for a

dozen that’s not expensive I mean you

pretty much only need you know two

three four eggs at a time and you can

get quite a few meals out of that so it

still comes out pretty good because it

says high-quality protein I like eggs

the best out of everything okay so now

poultry and then we talk about fish

high-quality protein no carbs great

omega-3 fatty acids

okay so fish is really good but if it’s

farm-raised there’s higher amounts of

mercury there’s lower omega-3 fatty

acids there’s other problems with the

other things they put in the feed and

dioxins so we want to consume

wild-caught fish as the ideal scene okay

all right pork highly digestible now any

worse than the red meat or poultry

because of all this stuff right here

very high in vitamin b1 but you want to

avoid pork from third world countries

because they pretty much eat garbage and

waist-high antibiotic injections unless

it’s organic so if you consume pork that

is free-range but it’s very rare to find

it I don’t think there’s a problem with

it if that’s a clean animal I do not

think there’s a problem with it

compared to this I mean I don’t know why

people would have chicken and not pork

they think it’s a dirty animal these are

the dirty animals right through here

both these unless it’s pasture raised

farm unless it’s not farm factory farm

okay let’s talk about Dairy Dairy most

milk is cooked at 160 degrees it’s kind

of a dead protein and there’s a lot of

problems with it

hormone wise antibiotic wise if you can

find raw milk from a farmer that’s great

but in our state it’s illegal so that’s

a problem so there’s a lot of people a

lot of people are allergic to it too the

casein protein and also the lactose

intolerant and also pasteurization

destroys most of the nutrition okay so

milk by itself is not good but when you

ferment the milk and you make yogurt

that’s a little bit better because

you’re getting the friendly bacteria so

fermentation increases the protein amino

acid content

and and the microbes that will help your

gut so but yogurt is a little bit higher

in carbohydrates than cheese so I would

recommend if you’re trying to lose

weight do more cheese than yogurt okay

so we want to do whole milk yogurt don’t

buy the low-fat yogurt don’t buy the no

fat yogurt it’s hard to find it and I

don’t know why people are taking the fat

out that’s the best part nutrition wise

you have all these fat soluble vitamins

in there but it’s not going to put

weight on you

so I I always go for the whole milk with

the cream on top if you can find it

cheese very high quality protein I’m not

talking about Velveeta though I’m

talking about European cheeses that you

can get from Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods

or some of the store that has cheese

that is not with hormones that are

grass-fed cows or sheep or goat cheese

on in other places like France

Switzerland Australia they all have

really good cheeses that are grass-fed

and so that’s what I consume higher

protein very low sugar very low

allergies in a high quality Chief’s by

the way and there’s no hormones or

antibiotics so I do consume cheese and

yes I am from Wisconsin so that’s a good

source keeper is way better than yogurt

it’s a sour type of fermented drink it’s

less sugar more microbes make sure you

get the grass-fed that’s the best and

you’re good to go

we talked about eggs soy it’s a high

protein food if it’s fermented it might

be okay in small quantities if it’s

organic unless you’re trying to reduce

estrogen but typically most people are

highly allergic to it it’s one of the

most destroyed products because they 90

I think over 90 percent of all the soil

is genetically modified so that’s the

problem so you would have to get organic

and most the diet programs use soy

protein isolates which is really bad

it’s in morning sorry it’s in a lot of

the prepackaged foods and that creates

major problems in our digestive system

and other in our livers so I do not

recommend it and so we want to avoid soy

unless the small quantities if you want

to do it I mean I don’t know I think if

you tried everything and you’re

menopausal and you have hot flashes and

nothing’s working for the hot flashes

take some fermented organic soy I have

no problem with that in small amounts it

will help you okay

chlorella that’s kind of like a algae

and it’s a plant protein very complete

but because it’s grown on lakes it you

can pull some toxins from that lake so

that’s one of the problems in chlorella

can detoxify your body so a lot of times

people want to consume it too much they

can detox and get a detox reaction the

other problem the drawback is it’s very

very expensive but you can have it in

small amounts okay spirulina is a good

source of protein - very available it

doesn’t have any cell wall so it goes in

like a rocket ship but it can also pull

toxins and it’s like 15 to 80 dollars a

pound with protein so it’s a little more

cheaper to have some of these other

proteins up here and it tastes like like

grass and seaweed okay hemp protein okay

so that’s similar to our blood protein

you do it’s a good source of protein not

all it’s not very complete but it has

some protein but it does create some

bloating unfortunately so that’s kind of

a drawback so that’s pretty much my

summary of the protein I pretty much

consumed some red meat grass-fed poultry

some fish I even do occasionally at pork

if I find it but not too much I do a lot

of cheese and eggs and I do kefir that’s

that’s what I do
