Food Theory: Superfoods Are a SCAM!

Superfoods are a SCAM! If you’ve taken a stroll down the produce section of your grocery store, you may have come across this term before. This buzzword promotes near-magical health benefits but can one single food actually meet most of your nutritional needs? I fear the food industry is just feeding us more lies…

What makes you think that the research at 15:00 isn't just as biased and paid for to get people to eat less healthy and more junk food, make them sick and profit off them?
This channel is a scam*
There. Fixed your title
Super food super food
Nothing is as good as they say and nothing is as bad as they say. Lol 😂
Literally all foods have some benefit, it's what food is
This is basically why I was raised to eat varied meals, not focused on only one type of food.
A healthy diet is a varied diet!
Surprisingly good video for a channel that doesn't get into the niddy griddy of health science and biology.
Variety is good. If people try to eat more whole foods with a focus on meat from healthy animals, that solves a lot of health problems for most people.
I'm guessing that green tortilla chips might not have the same nutrients as the alleged superfood ingredient. Probably tasty, though.
I’ve never eaten it because it was healthy, I’ve always eaten it because it “tasted” better.
These 'superfoods' are nice additions, but they cannot do anything if your baseline nutrients aren't good
why did i think for a moment he sounded like matpat.
edit: somehow the name came to me at the end of the video.
Honestly, this has to be one of my favorite food theories. It’s such a universal topic in the US. Honestly, each food group could have its own video. Absolutely great work, longtime follower. ❤️❤️❤️
The best superfood is whatever tastes good and makes you feel good both short and long term.
Everyone's body is different and may need different things at different times. Learn to listen to your body's signals and maybe try something new every once in a while; one day it may be exactly what your body needs.
Also adjacent to this, learn to not only taste with your mouth, but the rest of your body too. There's a lot of foods, particularly candies and most fast food, that may taste really good at first but it makes you really not feel that great the following hours after.
7:39 acie 😂🎉
@theplantslant2431 is good for being truthful about food health and calling out fake food facts
Honey is the real super food, especially manuka honey
jesus saves soul confess sins
As someone who eats Salmon and Avocado on a regular basis yey super foods taste good but the won’t solve all your health problems
Water is wet, news at 11
Well i don't buy superfood or vegan or helth potions enyway so only marketing of low prices work on me.
Now they charge for orange juice like there's a shortage 🙄
When I worked at Whole Foods in the early 2010’s the only “superfoods” were spirulina & chlorella, and kale due to the fact you could “survive solely on these foods and not have any deficiencies” as the defining factor. When did all of this happen?!?
We need a new internet dictionary, one that traces back how a word emerged, and determines whether it is scientific, colloquial, political, commercial…
Well all carbs are a scam so there’s that. Then add to that, “Heart Healthy”, “Pasture Raised” and “Organic”, it’s all a scam.
I would have never expected to see felt face in a food theory
Moms catching strays
Santi’s pronunciation fo quinoa keeps catching me by surprise
right after he said especially sweet potatoes, i knew why it was a scam, way before finishing the theory, heck im at 1:07 right now
Matcha and protein in literally everything is the new trend it seems
5:51😭😭”like my mother”
PERFECT Randy Feltface placement on the "BLUEBERRIES ARE NOT BLUE"
Food theory idea:
Does warm milk actually help you fall asleep? What other foods actually do help you fall asleep?
is this a repost? because i feel like i already seen a video about superfood by food theory
even the joke about sweet potato at the start
1:02 it eat McDonald’s my guy…
Im pretty sure antioxidants do have an effect. As if they dont help.
You know, since every crop and animal that we farm and ranch is basically entirely unnatural and was selectively bred back during times when we had no idea about Molecular Nutrition, what are the chances that foods that were selectively bred for visible characteristics like size and speed of production have been rendered nutritionally deficient? Like, it's commonly 'known' that Iceburg Lettuce has very little nutrition in it- but what about other foods? Are our crops the living equivalents of Fast Food, in terms of nutritional density, compared to what they used to be?
Or are our crops stripping the soil of micronutrients to the point where farmland no longer has the micronutrients required to grow food without large quantities of fertilizer?
science has no buisness being objective, it should only be used to promote corporate interests!
I've been saying superfoods are a buzzword-based marketing scam since they first started making the rounds. Sorta like how "organic" is way more of a marketing term than a descriptor.
