Animal-Based Grocery Haul at Trader Joe’s

Here’s my animal-based grocery haul at Trader Joe’s…

If you can’t get fresh heart & liver in your diet, try our 100% grass-fed desiccated beef organs at Heart & Soil: https://shop.heartandsoil.co/products/beef-organs

It’s easy to find good quality animal-based foods almost anywhere…

It’s always meat / organs / fruit / honey / raw dairy.

This is an ANIMAL-BASED diet, and I believe this is the most optimal diet for humans on the planet…

I’m a Trader Joe’s in Santa Monica I’m going to take you along on my grocery haul this is what I am going to buy here right in the door we’re going to just make a left turn away from the vegetables and go over here to get some

Fruit they got some organic Fuji apples that are going to be pretty good I might eat these or maybe even juice them medle dates these are good organic bananas going to need some time for these puppies to ripen but we got other fruit in the meantime or organic

Avocados got a little jug all In it’s all right these are not ripe you’re allowed to juggle the unripe avocados they not round it’s really hard to Juggle organic Naval oranges these will most likely get Juiced they got some squash here that I’m going to get they got some organic zucchini squash squash is a fruit so I think it’s actually pretty good you think of it as a vegetable but vegetables are really leaves and stems and roots and seeds

Zucchini or fruit saut these guys up put them on a steak be pretty good we’re going to skip the bread aisle you guys know I don’t eat bread I don’t eat grains grains are seeds lots of problematic things in there for humans digestive enzyme Inhibitors phytic acid which prevents the absorption of

Minerals in the gut gluten which is a major problem for More Humans so I’m going to skip all the bread and I skipped all the vegetables you guys probably know about that more defense chemicals not really any unique nutrients that I can’t get in fruit for

Plant foods and really my goal when I’m thinking about food is the most nutrients with the least amount of toxins we haven’t gotten to the animal Foods yet the meat the cheese the eggs and the dairy that’s where the real nutrients are they definitely are nutrients in fruit and there’s nutrients

In vegetables but I don’t think there’s any unique nutrient Nuri and vegetables that I can’t get in organs meat fruit honey and raw dairy on an animal based diet and by eliminating the vegetables I’m getting rid of and avoiding the defense chemicals things like oxalates which can accumulate in the joints ftic

Acid like in the bread which can prevent the absorption of minerals all kinds of things so we skip the vegetables potatoes are delicious but it’s a root and they actually have a pretty good amount of oxalates in them so I avoid the potatoes and I get my carbohydrates

From things like the fruit or honey even sweet potatoes are decently high in oxalates so if you want to eat white potatoes or sweet potatoes cook the crap out of them if you have joint issues if you have autoimmune issues if you have sleep issues it’s worthwhile considering

A low oxalate diet one of the highest oxalate Foods in most grocery stores things like turmeric powder spinach chard and almonds are the big ones or beet greens but a lot of people will eat significant amounts of potatoes both sweet potatoes and white potatoes and if you have issues

Getting rid of those and decreasing the oxalates in your diet is probably not a bad idea spaghetti squash here this is a fruit this is a much better substitute in your diet than something like wheat pasta so I’ll get some spaghetti squash cook it up with some raw butter could be

Good I’m going to skip the chicken because i’ prefer to get red meat but if you do eat chicken opt for something like the organic free range chicken 95% of what I eat is red meat grass-fed red meat I’m not a huge fan of fish because of the contaminants in the

Oceans but if you’re going to eat fish do not eat Farm ra salmon even though this salmon looks fancy you can see on the label very clearly that it is Norwegian farm raised know that all Atlantic salmon is farm raised and as you can see on the label color is added

You don’t want salmon like that if I were going to eat salmon I would eat something like a wild salmon much better color Trader Joe’s actually has some decent options for meat they’ve got a 8515 organic ground beef and they’ve got grass-fed ribe eyes so I’ll get a couple of these I’m going

To skip the strawberries I’m just not really feeling strawberries these days but if you do get strawberries make sure you get organic strawberries tons of pesticides on strawberries they’re usually the top of the dirty desen from the environmental working group suggesting that they have perhaps the highest amounts of pesticides even

Berries of any kind I would not eat non-organic raspberries blackberries or blueberries because berries have tons of pesticides while I’m here I’ll get some blueberries this is the most incredibly humorous section of the Trader Joe’s store you’ve got beefless ground beef I uh I parked my porsch Porsche

Outside of Trader Joe’s we’ll show you guys that at the end of the video it’s actually a Toyota Camera I’m joking but you got the idea I don’t know how you can call something beefless ground beef uh and on the label as you can see it’s

Full of things like seed oils and gums there’s canola oil there and gu gum so gums like guar gum xantham gum keragen I think these are some of the least appreciated problematic foods for humans kerogen and other gums create issues in the human gut so definitely avoid these

Kind of things beefless ground beef next to the impossible Burger which claims that it’s beef made from Plants the only thing that makes beef from plants or cows so that’s ridiculous there’s actually studies that show that these plant-based Meats when they’re given to animals create gut inflammation and I’m

Sure they create gut inflammation in humans turkeyless ground mush to me that just looks like I don’t even know I don’t even know what this looks this looks like something I played with in uh Elementary School some kind of sludge that I would give to kids to make uh clay animals or something

That’s horrible up here you’ve got eggless eggs plant-based eggs that’s a complete oxymoron I don’t know how they get away with this stuff the ingredients on this one are crazy Lupin protein concentrate what even is that and sunflower oil and the hits keep coming Anthem gum this is this stuff’s horrible

Guys I think that it’s clear that humans crave animal products We crave meat and eggs this is what we like that’s why so many of these plant-based products try to imitate these things to appeal to our our brains the parts of our brains that no matter what we eat always crave meat

There’s actually a study that shows that that if you look at the brains in vegans and vegetarians and you show these people images of meat their brains still crave the meat I’m not a fan of the processed Meats Trader Joe’s actually has raw cheese this stuff’s pretty good

This greier it’s raw and they’ve got raw parmesano reganos so I’m going to grab some raw cheese I’m a big fan of raw dairy they don’t have any raw milk here unfortunately but I’m a fan of raw dairy there’s good studies multiple studies that show that kids who drink raw milk

Have lower rates of eczema asthma and allergies as adults probably due to beneficial qualities of the whey protein in raw dairy that is changed the raw dairy is denatured when you heat the milk so that’s why I prefer to drink raw milk and get raw cheese when I can

Unfortunately Trader Joe’s doesn’t have any raw milk or yogurt but they’ve got goat milk cafir which is probably the best thing they’ve got here so get some of that so in terms of eggs the uh the best eggs of Trader Joe’s are the organic pasture raised

Eggs not bad probably would eat most of those as raw yolks rather than cooking them I don’t eat the whites raw because raw egg whites contain avidin which binds Biotin and I just find that um I digest eggs better when I don’t have the whites people some people react to egg whites more

Than the yolks so I eat the yolks raw when I’m eating eggs Trader Joe’s has some decent butter here um organic butter but there’s other places where I can get raw butter I don’t have any olive oil in my diet they actually don’t sell Tallow here um but my favorite fats

Are Tallow butter and ghee but if you want to know how to pick an olive oil um in short I would look for something that is organic extra virgin single source and cold pressed there’s only one here at Trader Joe’s that fits the bill for

That again I don’t use olive oil in my diet I think you want the lowest amount of linolic acid in your diet possible olive oil is higher in linolic acid significantly than Tallow and butter and ghee the latter have about 2% linolic acid olive oils can have 10 to 15%

Trader Joe’s is all about sauces but I just avoid all this stuff it’s it’s just not my jam it has a lot of seed oils in it especially the dressings um even this green dragon hot sauce that apparently people love at Trader Joe’s full of seed

Oils bro get some people like sardines I hate these things guys I hate them for one they’re in a tin which is going to have BPA in the plastic and if not BPA in the plastic they’re going to have some xenoestrogens in the plastic and I mean these sardines contain natural

Flavor which I would never eat and every time I eat sardines I get like a burping sensation I just hate that I imagine all the fish in these tins are spoiled and oxidized and I think it’s gross you guys thought I was going to eat peanut butter

I’m not going to eat peanut butter I’m just going to tell you why I don’t like it you can see here all this peanut oil on top of the peanut butter that’s a seed oil peanut oil is a seed oil this has a lot of linolic acid in it this

Omega 6 18 carbon polyunsaturated fatty acid that I think is the major driver of illness in humans and it’s in peanuts peanuts are beans beans are seeds seed oil is is in peanut butter it’s oxidized not good for humans and peanuts are hard for humans to digest

Anyway so I don’t do any peanut butter and if you look at these other ones like cocoa almond spread which is Trader Joe’s imitation Nutella it’s it’s full of seed oils I mean look at this um right there canola oil on the label terms of Honey at Trader Joe’s I

Probably I’m going to get this one it’s a local raw honey I’m a big fan of honey and fruit and carbohydrates in general the audience on YouTube seems to always lose their mind when I talk about eating honey but I’ll put a study here that shows that diabetics who are given

Honey um actually decrease their fasting glucose and fasting insulin so I I believe that honey is very beneficial for humans I’m a very active human and including carbohydrates in my diet whether fruit or honey definitely improved my thyroid function and improved my hormones lowered sex hormone binding globuline which led to higher

Levels of free hormones improve my sleep and improve my electrolyte balance no longer did I need to have tons and tons of salt to even maintain any semblance of not cramping all the time when I was keto when I included carbohydrates so if you’re keto uh and you’re having issues

With cramping that is an electrolyte issue because you are not including carbohydrates in your diet it’s easily fixable there’s really no good evidence to suggest that Whole Food forms of sugar like fruit or honey are harmful for humans at all I’ve done other videos about this on YouTube about how the

Research regarding fructose gets confused and conflated the study suggesting that fructose is harmful for humans are almost exclusively looking at animal studies which do not translate to humans and they’re looking at processed fructose or isolated fructose not in Whole Food form Trader Joe actually has a pretty good organic maple syrup that

I’ll add to the regimen I add that to uh raw milk I know the the keto zealots in the audience are losing their mind right now but I’ll uh I’ll twist the knife in your guys heart uh this is fine for humans doesn’t cause insulin resistance I promise it’s just really

Delicious I don’t do any alcohol guys Trader Joe’s is famous for Charles Shaw Two Buck Chuck but there’s really solid evidence that even lowlevel consumption of alcohol one two drinks a day over the course of a week longterm can thin the neocortex of the brain brain atrophy and

We know that even small amounts of alcohol are harmful for the gut causing opening of The Gap Junctions in the gastrointestinal epithelium which is colloquially known as leaky gut so I do not drink alcohol I don’t think you need alcohol either you are smart enough good-looking enough and interesting

Enough uh and can talk to girls or guys without alcohol but I’ll leave it up to you guys but I don’t drink alcohol all right so that’s my Trader Joe’s grocery haul we don’t have any organs but I brought Harden soil supplements to Los Angeles with me and that will fit the

Bill for that this is what an animal- based diet is about the most nutrient-rich foods with the least amount of toxins possible that is how humans Thrive so that’s how I solve the equation which I think is the human thriving equation how do you get the most amount of nutrients with the least

Amount of toxins don’t over complicate it and think about what you would prefer when you were in the wild foods that are sweet seasonal fruit and hunting of animals eating nose to tail that’s the Trader Joe’s Hall
