Alright guys, I recently did a video on why you need to consume vegetables, okay?

This is a continuation of that when not to consume vegetables, okay?

In the last video, just to quickly summarize, you want vegetables between 7 to 10 cups for this

reason. One is to get the nutrients that you need. So, vegetables provide the nutrients,

especially potassium magnesium. Also, the fiber in the vegetables because we're not doing grains,

feed the microbes. And microbes need this fiber to actually survive. And they will give you

a friendly acid, it's called butyuric acid, that then feeds your colon, helps normalize blood sugar,

decreases inflammation. Now, final nutrients, that would be like carotenoids. All the final nutrients

lutein that go beyond just regular vitamins and minerals that give you additional health benefits.

Okay, this is very, very important and the oxidants, things like that. Also, the vegetables

buffer the pH. So, if you're just doing meat, you're going to acidify things a bit too much,

and the vegetables act as a great buffer for the pH. So, it's not always so acidic.

Alright, now, when not to do vegetables? Well, when you have this condition called sebow,

small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. Okay, what is that? That's a situation where your microbes

are not all located in the large intestine. The last part of this huge tube that you have,

which is like 27 feet long, I think it's like 31 feet long. The last part, the last 5 feet

is the large intestine. That's where most of the microbes should live. But in sebow, you have

those microbes now living in the wrong place. They live in the small intestine, which is the

first part of the tube. Okay? So, if you have these microbes, it's called flora, or microbiome,

living in the small intestine, when it should be in the large intestine, they can compete for nutrients.

So, basically, you're supposed to absorb all this nutrient in the small intestine. Well,

these bacteria will eat that up and keep you deficient in nutrients. So, that's not good.
