- 0:47Speaker 3: Hello and welcome. I'm doctor Troy. You know, for years
- 0:50Speaker 3: I've always wondered about eating burnt things and overly done
- 0:55Speaker 3: things and hearing that they were bad, but not really
- 0:58Speaker 3: understanding why and was it just scarcinogenic? What was going
- 1:02Speaker 3: on besides the other things of eating something that is
- 1:06Speaker 3: burnt and it technically being destroyed proteins apparently in the
- 1:11Speaker 3: browning process of anything, even French fries, even bread. Oh
- 1:18Speaker 3: I love that just lightly golden brown toast. It's just
- 1:23Speaker 3: about to turn brown and it's perfect. That's the way
- 1:26Speaker 3: I've always liked it, unless it's an English muffin, then
- 1:31Speaker 3: I wanted brown. But anyways, I digress. And so the
- 1:35Speaker 3: chemical that's produced when we brown things are overly processed food.
- 1:40Speaker 3: So here we have all these boxed, canned, process refined
- 1:43Speaker 3: fast foods, and we're still producing some amounts of chemicals.
- 1:47Speaker 3: And this particular chemical that we're looking at today is
- 1:49Speaker 3: called acrylamide, or could even be pronounced a krylamide, but
- 1:55Speaker 3: I doubt it. It's probably like acrylamide. So acrylamide. When
- 1:59Speaker 3: we brown things, whether it's hash browns, whether it's an egg,
- 2:02Speaker 3: whether it's eating extruded cereal, you might be like, what's
- 2:06Speaker 3: an extruded cereal? Any kind of shaped cereal like an
- 2:11Speaker 3: O or a star or whatever shape that the little
- 2:16Speaker 3: structure that's hard is in. It's an extruded cereal. And
- 2:19Speaker 3: so it's done in a very hot, high temperature process,
- 2:23Speaker 3: not to the point of brown, but definitely, oh, I'm
- 2:27Speaker 3: sure producing a krylamide. So you might be saying, well,
- 2:30Speaker 3: what's acrylamide. It's just one of those chemicals that's produced
- 2:34Speaker 3: when food breaks down, So some molecule is turning into
- 2:38Speaker 3: a krylamide. Now, this acrylamide can accumulate, and I've got
- 2:43Speaker 3: some good news for you that apparently, to make a
- 2:47Speaker 3: detrimental effect on your body, you'd have to eat a
- 2:51Speaker 3: bunch of toast that's burnt. So here's the numbers. A
- 2:56Speaker 3: brown piece of toast, it's brown, it's not golden brown,
- 3:00Speaker 3: and it's brown brown. That produces roughly about four point
- 3:04Speaker 3: eight micrograms of acrylamide a burnt piece of toast. It
- 3:09Speaker 3: doubles that. You'd have to eat roughly one hundred and
- 3:12Speaker 3: sixty pieces of burnt toast a day to have a
- 3:15Speaker 3: negative impact on your diet. But the problem is is
- 3:19Speaker 3: that there's all this hidden stuff. What if we throw
- 3:22Speaker 3: a steak on the grill and we sear it and
- 3:25Speaker 3: it's brown. Okay, you're producing more acrylamide. How much I
- 3:29Speaker 3: don't know. Here we are eating extruded cereals, so your
- 3:32Speaker 3: favorite breakfast cereal may also now have a bunch of acrylamide.
- 3:38Speaker 3: If you're eating anything processed, canned, boxed, you are having
- 3:42Speaker 3: more and more acrylamide. Let's say that you are cooking, oh,
- 3:47Speaker 3: your favorite pasta dish like a feticini and you're browning
- 3:51Speaker 3: the meat in the pan, and then you're browning maybe
- 3:54Speaker 3: even onions, or browning the whole mixture. That's this wonderful fat,
- 4:02Speaker 3: heavy dense Alfredo sauce with pasta in the pan and
- 4:06Speaker 3: it's browning it. You're getting a bunch there too, And
- 4:10Speaker 3: so it's not just the bread that we're looking at.
- 4:12Speaker 3: Let's say that they're posting your coffee beans. Guess what
- 4:16Speaker 3: a kryllamide. So you may be getting a lot more
- 4:19Speaker 3: akrylamide than you think. And studies show that between thirty
- 4:23Speaker 3: two and fifty seven micrograms is about average for the
- 4:27Speaker 3: average person. And I thought it was kind of interesting
- 4:30Speaker 3: that they actually tried to figure out that if it
- 4:32Speaker 3: was one hundred and sixty pieces of burnt toast, that's
- 4:36Speaker 3: like one and a half grams of a krylamide. I
- 4:39Speaker 3: suppose there's some people out there that are putting that
- 4:42Speaker 3: kind of amount of acrylamide away. Now, let's say I
- 4:45Speaker 3: go to my favorite fast food restaurant and they're toasting
- 4:48Speaker 3: the bun as well as obviously cooking the meat on
- 4:52Speaker 3: some type of big flat iron grill of some sort,
- 4:57Speaker 3: and they're grilling things over and over and over on
- 5:01Speaker 3: that grill. Could I be expecting a fair amount of
- 5:05Speaker 3: acrylamide there? Yes, yes I could, and probably a lot
- 5:08Speaker 3: more than we'd care to think about. So we may
- 5:11Speaker 3: want to think twice before having all these foods that
- 5:14Speaker 3: are heavily browned or burnt. If you're out there thinking, yeah,
- 5:17Speaker 3: but I really like well done food, I'm sorry for you,
- 5:22Speaker 3: because that's definitely producing more acrylamide. You might say, well,
- 5:25Speaker 3: then what do I do? I don't want to lose
- 5:27Speaker 3: the taste of my food. Then you would want to
- 5:30Speaker 3: do some things that we're going to be more in
- 5:33Speaker 3: line with detoxification. So there are some simple ways to
- 5:38Speaker 3: detox the body. I have a couple of products in
- 5:40Speaker 3: the office that we use. Some are literally a seven
- 5:44Speaker 3: day program summer ten, summer thirty. Just depends on what
- 5:47Speaker 3: you're doing. But even just basic things like if we
- 5:50Speaker 3: look at what is cleansing of the body, what runs
- 5:53Speaker 3: phase one in phase two detox that would help us out.
- 5:56Speaker 3: If you're eating a lot of acrylamide, we would turn
- 5:58Speaker 3: to anything that is a crucifier vegetable. What's a crucifer's vegetable, Well,
- 6:03Speaker 3: it's kale, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, things of that nature, cabbage,
- 6:08Speaker 3: So those would be things that are excellent detox. So
- 6:11Speaker 3: would beats be excellent detox As we look around and think, okay, well,
- 6:15Speaker 3: I want to get some of these foods in my
- 6:17Speaker 3: diet to kind of help me with this whole issue
- 6:20Speaker 3: of eating the foods that I would like to as
- 6:22Speaker 3: brown as I would like to. So should we run
- 6:24Speaker 3: screaming from the kitchen because we like brown food? No,
- 6:29Speaker 3: but we do want to think a little bit better
- 6:31Speaker 3: about that. Now here was a kicker. They also tend
- 6:34Speaker 3: to have somewhat of a damning evidence on air fryers.
- 6:40Speaker 3: So some of these new ways of cooking things more
- 6:42Speaker 3: quickly can produce more acrylamide. So while it does aid
- 6:48Speaker 3: for convenience, it often is a detriment when it comes
- 6:51Speaker 3: to our health. So if we're going to do things
- 6:55Speaker 3: like that, then at least up your ability to intake
- 6:59Speaker 3: some foods that we more detoxification in and of itself. Now,
- 7:03Speaker 3: let's say that you're making a soup and you might
- 7:05Speaker 3: cook some meter brown it on low and like at
- 7:08Speaker 3: least get it done so it's not pink. Okay, that's fair.
- 7:11Speaker 3: Let's say that you saw taste some onions briefly and
- 7:14Speaker 3: it's not too overcooked. Great. Let's say you saw taste
- 7:18Speaker 3: some mushrooms and some other vegetables fine, added to the
- 7:21Speaker 3: soup and you've got your stock. Anything brought slowly to
- 7:24Speaker 3: a simmer and kept there is much better off than
- 7:27Speaker 3: high heat trying to get the food warm. Right now,
- 7:31Speaker 3: I am guilty of trying to cook things faster and
- 7:34Speaker 3: burning the tar out of something. I think we've all
- 7:37Speaker 3: been there, done that, until I realize, you know what,
- 7:39Speaker 3: the slow way is the best way. So preparing things
- 7:43Speaker 3: and we take a little bit more time, that's going
- 7:46Speaker 3: to be a key for all of us. So again,
- 7:49Speaker 3: we look at times past where we would sit down
- 7:52Speaker 3: and have a lunch that was an hour, hour and
- 7:54Speaker 3: a half. Those days are probably gone, but they were
- 7:59Speaker 3: probably the wisest things that we did was to sit
- 8:02Speaker 3: down and relax, have a meal, eat somewhat slowly, take
- 8:07Speaker 3: time to prepare our meal. It doesn't have to be
- 8:10Speaker 3: so darn fast, and enjoy life a little bit more
- 8:13Speaker 3: without the speed of light that we like to live by.
- 8:17Speaker 3: Now a little easier, a little less fast, And I'm
- 8:21Speaker 3: always amazed when they taste that much better. So until
- 8:25Speaker 3: next time, I'm doctor Troy, and remember there's way more
- 8:29Speaker 3: right with you than there is wrong with you. Thanks
