I don't think it's as simple as this video states. Eating slowly is much
better, everyone knows this. But additionally, the French eat foods higher
in fat and fat intake increases the protein hormone leptin in the body
which is a great appetite and metabolic regulator. They also walk much
more. They also cook their own food more often which means they eat fresh
veg etc.
I think not snacking between meals is a very important factor to the French
paradox.

Canada is awesome till the part where they speak English. That French part
sucks. I mean, I was clubbing in Montreal and asked those French girls to
dance with me and all I got was " I dont speak English ". I mean, who in
21st century does not fucking speak English. I can go to Moscow, Dubai
,Stockholm or Rome and be able to speak English with any young lady if I
want to. Perhaps USA should have invaded it and force English into that
stupid French part.
I'm Canadian and find it super annoying that we always have to point out
when someone famous is Canadian. To me it's like people here have the
hugest inferiority complex because it matters to them so much when
Americans acknowledge Canadians. They become overly proud when they really
shouldn't give a shit either way.
+nimo a No, it really doesn't matter. But we Canadians are allowed to have some pride when of our own makes it big in show business. We have a proud tradition of it.
The standard "American" accent is the correct way to speak. "Out" is not
pronounced "Oot." Just as "Joust" is not pronounced "Joost."
The odd thing is, that Canadians would argue the opposite. Linguistics is
awfully stressful to study. However, all English speaking countries have
an "Oxford Dictionary" which states directly that the American way of
speaking is correct. (Read the pronunciation key). I find it very odd that
Oxford is in Europe, yet it caters to American English perfectly.
+Steve Holmgren You're an idiot. There is no correct accent. Where does the Oxford dictionary state that?

GMO, Global Alert
French researchers secretly studied, for two years, 200 rats fed with transgenic maize. Tumors, serious disorders... full-fledged slaughter. And a bomb for the ...
+Dan S One thing that Anthony Samsel found out recently is that even the control groups were getting GM feed. It was in the Purina chow fed to all lab animals. He tested many of the chows out there used for the control groups in studies. So, that means all these test used to put this GMO junk on our plates were not good tests. 3 months does not get you very far in the life of a rat. Our children have been the guinea pigs for the last 20 years and if you take a look at Nancy Swanson's charts which show the rise of disease compared to the rise in the use of RoundUp and Glyphosate, you get a pretty good picture of what the chemical companies have done to the health of our population.
+Dan S Activists = people who care enough about something to spend their time volunteering to bring awareness to others. That is what I have found. Never in my wildest dreams would I have believed anyone who told me 20+ years ago that I would become an activist, but now I am one and proud of it. It rather be an activist than a millionaire paid by Monsanto or any of the other chemical companies. They are ruining the planet. All those chemicals don't just vanish. They are in our air, water, and soil. They are ruining our health as they kill off the good guys in our human microbiome. We need to get off our chemical dependence as a society. Watch Microbiome Madness which is a video of doctors teaching doctors about the microbiome.
+Paul S there is more info out now. Monsanto did do longer studies that they didn't publish, but hid them behind a "trade secrets" curtain. Anthony Samsel has the information and Tony Mitra has done several interviews with him. I am thankful the the Seralini Team for getting this information out there. The moms I know who take their kids off GMO foods have seen terrific results.
And certainly if we continue to conflate gmos with pesticides nobody will every learn another about either. Apples and oranges. But while on the subject of pesticides, the 30, 000 doctor thing reminds me of the 30, 000 science undergrads and engineers who signed a petition against the IPCC to refute global warming. They are doctors who know nothing about the toxicity of glyphosate but would call for a ban on the most benign pesticide known to man so if successful, farmers can use more harmful pesticides. Hope they are proud of themselves when they achieve this.
Luckily, we can all conduct our own food experiments.see: 30,000 Doctors and Health Professionals Demand Ban on GlyphosateGuess we are not all :round-up ready" :)Countries who ban GMO: //naturalrevolution.org/list-countries-banned-genetically-modified-food/
Yes, for some one anecdote trumps all of science and therefore they must give their (unscientific) opinions publicly decrying the work of scientists that are simply trying to give us answers.
The week I switched to organics the bleeding stopped. Enough "evidence" for me. :) Like I said before, I don't need a scientist to tell me smoke makes me cough. :D
Brilliant, you make the statement about a company holding a patent on the TECHNOLOGY and put up a list of PRODUCTS on which companies hold patents. Do I have to explain the difference or are you going to keep showing exactly where your opposition to gmos comes from (it rhymes with fignorance).
GMO and Novel Foods patent holders-> Health Canada: //www.hc-sc.gc.ca/fn-an/gmf-agm/appro/index-eng.php American Academy of Science.. funded by biotech: //www.cspinet.org/integrity/corp_funding.html +Dan S
+Kim Hunter The World Health Organization, The American Academy of Science, European Commission, etc etc, are biotech/chemical corps?? are you in your right mind ? Further, there is NO PATENT on transgenic technology. It is not product, it is a technique . You are delirious.
+Dan S Your source is from the same biotech / chemical corps. who own the patents to this questionable food "technology".Your "geneticliteracyproject" link -> John Entine -> Syngenta & Monsanto. :/
+Kim Hunter That would be some interesting considering the European Commission statement on the safety of gmos. I agree that we are lucky to have independent research in science. And as for the European Commissions public statement on gmo safety, you will find it in the easy to read infographic at this link along with other major independant science academies around the world. //www.geneticliteracyproject.org/2014/07/08/climate-change-vs-gmos-comparing-the-independent-global-scientific-consensus/It seems we are getting our respective information from different sources. I tend to stick to the rigorously studied and peer reviewed stuff rather than hanging my hat on one study that has not passed scientific scrutiny to date.
Take it up with the European Food Safety Authority who will now use the Seralini Study as the standard for GMO studies..or perhaps all the other studies who use the same rats. Perhaps the people involved in the National US Class Action Lawsuit against Monsanto is more up your alley. Pleanty of resources out there without ties to Monsanto.We are lucky to have the resources to research independently today. Stay Healthy. :)
+Kim Hunter You need to expand your sources. The biggest reason for the retraction was that Seralini did not release the raw data in the first publication. A move unheard of in science. The politicizing is clearly on the side of Seralini and not the other way around. It has not yet undergone the peer review process. From what I've read, there will be problems explaining why control rats also developed tumors. The idea that the scientists condemned the study was done so "for political reasons" reeks of the same mentality of climate change deniers. That somehow a plethora of independent scientists are somehow bought out by companies like Monsanto. Seeing as how the food biotech industry is the homeless man compared to the fossil fuel industry being Bill Gates, I wonder how the scientists could not be bought off by big oil but bought off by Monsanto. If you have the faculties to recognize a conspiracy theory, you should employ them soon, else be embarrassed in the near future.
+Dan S Seralini has been republished. The retraction was "political" This one journal has since boycotted by 1400 scientists for "Violating Science and Ethics" A Monsanto appointee pulled the paper a year after it's publication. See: Republication of the Séralini study: Science speaks for itself Seralini validated by new EFSA guidelines on long-term GMO experiments
+Paul S I'm really not sure what the problem is. The Seralini studied was retracted. I suppose you can decide if you thought it should be, the fact of the matter is that after Seralini finally released the study methods, the study failed the peer reviewed process. There were many problems with the methods, and one of the most telling? The control rats (not fed BT Corn) also developed tumors. I would suggest that you look at studies done on GMO seeds and keep the farming practices (done by farmers) separate as it is not related to gmo. GMO tells you only how the seed was made. I would also recommend going to the National Academies that reviewed the collective of gmo plant studies for scientific conclusions rather than the opinions of laymen. We just don't get to decide that the science is wrong without equally credible scientific studies.
I went to and quoted from the retraction letter/press release of the original journal publisher itself (Elsevier), as Wikipedia is rather well known for this thing you call "confirmation bias". (I went to the horse's mouth, so to speak. I provided the source link but perhaps you didn't see that.) I was not convinced and I stated my reasons why. Their argument was not convincing enough to warrant a retraction in my opinion or even to change the results to being "inconclusive" for that matter. It seems like another journal (that did publish the paper) agreed, as did over 100+ scientists. (I'm for the truth and I'm for health. I have no bias. I stated my reasons quite plainly.)
+Paul S There is a thing in science that scientists know you must be aware of, its called "confirmation bias" where, instead of following the evidence, you seek out information that confirms what you WANT the answer to be. Instead of going directly to the scientific journals and statements from the world major, public science academies, you are seeking from"opinion sources". The ones you are linking me to have known ideological opposition. They do things like conflate gmos with pesticides, quote activist documentaries, etc. Its not scientific and, as I have come to find out, about as credible and climate change denial.
"The low number of animals had been identified as a cause for concern during the initial review process, but the peer review decision ultimately weighed that the work still had merit despite this limitation. A more in-depth look at the raw data revealed that no definitive conclusions can be reached with this small sample size regarding the role of either NK603 or glyphosate in regards to overall mortality or tumor incidence. Given the known high incidence of tumors in the Sprague-Dawley rat, normal variability cannot be excluded as the cause of the higher mortality and incidence observed in the treated groups." - Source: //www.elsevier.com/about/press-releases/research-and-journals/elsevier-announces-article-retraction-from-journal-food-and-chemical-toxicology#sthash.8whp7bzG.dpufMy two cents: A rather weak argument for retraction. First, this somewhat small sample size has been approved for peer review publication in the past. Second, there was a control group and this control did not get those tumors, increased mortality rates, etc. Sure this result could be due to "normal variability" of this type of rat but I believe the chances that these rats just happened to be by coincidence in the GMO/Glyposate treated group would be rather small, but yes not "definitive". But then again, very few studies (if any) are (truly definitive).

Low Calories, Vegan in France, Favourite Recipes & Aggressive Meat Eaters | Q&A
Make sure you follow me on instagram @mango.margaux and on tumblr at mangomargaux.tumblr.com --- Give this video a thumbs up if you want more And let ...
+mango.margaux Nice vid and nice shoutout to anti religion.Walking on water isn't even hard though. I do it every winter.It's nothing special you just have to wait for it to cool off and freeze is all.
Please don't juge until you've experienced it. Let us know when you'll be
in France... it might be disappointing for you ! I get that it's not an
excuse for not eating vegan but don't make it seem like it's easy and
people are picky and complicated. It might be okay from time to time but on
a regular basis eating out is hell.
Even vegetarians options are hard to find! Last time I asked if a coffee
place had anything vegetarian (hoping that I'll be able to ask it without
cheese after, because anything vegetarian in France is basically cheese)...
they offered me a tuna sandwich...
There is absolutely nothing vegan on regular supermarkets. We even had a
scandal a few months ago about canned veggies soaked in meat broth while it
wasn't even stated in the ingredients list.
So sure you can have rice/pasta/fruits but I don't feel like debating 15+
minutes over what you are ordering, paying a high price for the quality you
get and being hungry after. Maybe it's better in fancy places, but as a
student, I can't afford that!
Most of the time you even have to justify why you are asking for a plate
without its main ingredients and some places refused to serve it without
animal products because "there will be nothing on the plate except 2
potatoes otherwise..." Cheese is a religion here.
Oh and last time I managed to ask a plate of pasta... it was full of
BUTTER. "but butter ain't dairy lady"
Don't get this wrong, I love the message you're spreading and all of your
videos :) I was just attempting to give you a more "realistic" way of what
it is like here, compare to countries were it might be accepted and spread
largely.
Yeah my comment was mainly about eating out because we sure have some nice cheap vegetables here and all the basic (beans, pasta, rice, potatoes etc) for making awesome meals at home so that part is not a problem at all. Like +30527mye said, when I did not have enough food at home to take to uni or I am with some friends in a random place, it is a struggle to order and end up feeling like I'm being annoying or bothering everyone :( But sure, hummus, guac, bread, small salads and fruits are usually what i end up with :)
+Ana I really agree with you on this one. It is easy to be vegan at home when you prepare everything from scratch yourself and that's what I do and it makes me happy to fill my body with nature goodness but eating out is tough in France. The fact is you can be vegan wherever you go, in the same time we want people to see how easy and all the benefits they can have by eating a plant base diet, if non vegans see you struggling they are going to walk away from it. Non vegans need to bee inspired and I am sorry eating a bowl of rice before eating out makes you look like a lunatic who is not sure she will find something to eat or if people do not know you've already eaten like a tiny bird who eats half portions.
+Ana for me if im out and need food, ill usually go to the supermarket and buy some juice, or some ripe fruit, or dried fruit, or like some carrot and hummus... that stuff is universal :)
+Ana There is nothing vegan in regular supermarkets??? no fruits? veggies? rice? potatoes? pasta? beans? juice? bread?I understand and know what it is like in french restaurants, ive spent a lot of time in France. But like I said, eat before. And if you want to order something once you've eaten at home, order une salade de crudites, or des legumes a la vapeur. Tell them you are allergic to dairy including butter. Ive travelled in several countries as a vegan where I was told it wouldn't be possible, and i have NEVER had any problems. Its all about adapting and not being complicated. If you want to eat out, pizza places, falafel places, fast food places like subway even, etc, asian restaurants!
