Eat healthy, do exercise, take vitamin tabs and sleep well. That's what I've done and it's my 90th birthday next week. 😊

I think the tipping point in any diet is getting rid of processed foods especially sugar.
-
She is an advocate of a whole food plant based diet. You're welcome.

Lord, have mercy... I feel like so much was left out of that speech. I expected so much more detail from a person who escaped cancer.

Dear TED, when presenter shows slides, data, we too wish to see the same !!! Pl tell your camera crew......
-
Since everyone on YT comments threads are trained professionals with years of academia and scientific experience, I am just gonna read the comments, and skip the video.
-
She talks about animals at that time as very lean, which is probably true. But she doesn't mention the fact that the whole animal was eaten, including the fatty organs such as the brain.
-
The truth is that the more we distance from human nature, the most we suffer the consequences. This lady is so right. Great video.
-
Keto, paleo, vegan.. when you think about it are all basically saying the same thing. Eat real food, don't eat processed junk, and don't consume sugar.
-
Exercise- run 4-5 miles daily - don’t jog. No sugar, no alcohol, no processed foods. Follow 16 hour fasting and 8 hour eating regimen. Relieve stress, sleep 8-9 hours !!! That’s it.
-
Just lay off breads, flour of any kind! Lay off sugar … even fructose! And get PLENTY of active exercise , sunshine, and lots of restful sleep, and you’ll be fine!👍❤️

I still recommend that people that are interested in diet and "What should I eat", go take about 2 hours of a non stop presentation in You Tube by the late Nicholas Gonzalez, "What should I eat"? that was presented in 2010. For everyone that thinks they have to be a Vegan, Vegetarian, follow paleo, keto, Atkins, South Beach, Ornish, Pritikin, Oprah, and a thousand other diets, please take the time to listen to him. Then you will have better clarity. Best wishes.

One topic that I have never seen much information on is whether the depleted soils we grow our food in really have the levels of nutrition we expect. After a while, the fertilizer makes the plants manufacture starch---and not much else. Anyone else think this might be a part of the obesity epidemic in US. Never reaching the point of satiety due to lack of trace nutrients. . . .

I've resolved so many problems on carnivore. Sugar was part of my problem. Sugar is in nearly everything. Fake sugar was also a part of my problem. So cutting everything else out and eating high quality meat has made me healthier than I have been in years. Dr. Ken Berry, on YouTube, presents it very well. Plants have chemicals that are intended to protect them. Animals have teeth and claws. This the animal based food is less inflammatory than plant based food. Good luck. Whatever you do, don't stop trying to learn and improve!

Thank you, Ted Talks, TEDxWilmington, and Galit Goldfarb, for this is the presentation that resonates most with me of my entire existence. I studied biological anthropology at UCSD to follow this thread that astounds me at how I experience passion as the information is presented. I am wholly grateful and in alignment.
-
So great speech 👏🏻 Amazed that you have recovered from cancer by learning and following a healthy diet .. bravo .. I love you 💕
-
I’ve been watching many videos on dietary issues and solutions, and I find it a bit interesting that people who focused on Keto and carnivore diet actually talk about what happens in the body while most vegans and vegetarians and plant based diet people talk about the world and statistics instead of the chemistry that actually happens in your body when you consume the things you consume
-
Her diet changes would have inproved her symptoms though and well done to her for having empowered herself and being symptom-free
-
I must have been reading the wrong books all my life. I thought carrots, onions ect where a product of agriculture rather than just randomly found in the Savannah (or anywhere else for that matter). You could only find inedible wild berries and perhaps some mushroom in nature. Therefore the diet was more likely to be fish and meat back then!
