Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminute Fasting podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weights.

Let's talk about the seven healthiest foods you can eat.

Now, the question is, what makes a food healthy?

But to figure that out, we must also look at what foods make us sick.

And at all the things that can make us sick, as you might know already, insulin is at the top of the list. So any foods that raise insulin, because your blood sugars are now raised,

would not only inhibit your health, but it's going to make you ill. Also, foods that deplete you

of nutrients will make you ill as well. So we want nutrient dense foods. We want foods that deplete you of nutrients will make you ill as well. So we want nutrient

dense foods. We want foods that enhance nutrient absorption. It means low carb as one of the

factors. Now the two foods that don't trigger insulin, don't create an insulin response

would be fiber and fat. Okay. And as far as protein goes, the leaner the

protein, the higher the insulin response. In other words, on the insulin index, weight protein,

and very low fat, lean protein really creates an insulin spike compared to fatlier protein. So we really want a

higher fat, lower protein ratio in foods, if possible. And then nutrient dense. Not only do we

want vitamins and minerals and trace minerals and essential fatty acids like omega-3 fatty acids, but we also would like phytonutrients

because the phytonutrients give us additional health benefits that go way beyond just the

regular vitamins and minerals. So the first food on our list is sourcrow. Okay, now what makes

sourcrow so down healthy? Well, in one cup of sourcrow,

you have only six grams of carbs with 4.1 grams of fiber, giving you a net carb of 1.9 grams. So it's

just under two grams of carbs for an entire cup. That's incredible. So that definitely fits the definition of low

carb, high fiber, and high nutrient because sauerkraut has the highest vitamin C of any food

out there. In fact, in one cup of sauerkraut, there's over 700 milligrams of vitamin C. And the daily requirements

that we need are only roughly around 75 milligrams. And one cup of sourcrow gives us 700 milligrams.
