    Plus, nutritionists …
    Plus, nutritionists are all stupid anyways. Even doctors are stupid. Even doctors are only trained to do what they do. They know nothing of science. (In my research lab again, sighing at American stupidity)

  2. LZKS says:

    @BurntToast422 …
    @BurntToast422 Absolutely. The whole antioxidants is way over-stressed anyways. Antioxidants stop oxidation reaction which is actually NECESSARY for life. Overdose will only cause body to counter it. The only reason why you would ever lack antioxidants is if you only eat meat and carbos with no veggies at all. Ultimately, it’s just balance. Stupid Americans spending millions on antioxidants.

    Pretty much all …
    Pretty much all fruits and vegetables have their own health benefits. The ones that are “more” beneficial are the ones pushed by to pay their own scientists to do biased studies. Don’t bother wasting your money on these ridiculously overpriced fruits, since most of the money is just going into their advertising and scientific “research.”

    What’s better than …
    What’s better than food based antioxidents? An antioxident catalyst that turns on production of your own antioxident enzymes inside your cells! Watch my video from ABC’s Primetime. Then watch my exclusive video of nationally renowned neurologist, Dr. David Perlmutter, and my exclusive video of Montel Williams. This is bigger than big and it’s just getting starting NOW!

    the more fruits we all eat the better ? i advice you to double check that idea.

  15. dbloodline says:

    high insulin levels …
    high insulin levels is the root of most diseases but it seems like you not aware of this yet so why dont you do a little basic research before you open your mouth and call someone else an idiot when in reality you are the real ignorant idiot. she mentioned many fruits and even potatoes which are near 100 in the GI Index which you probably dont even know about either and which people shouldnt eat much of if they want to keep healthy insulin sensitivity.

    Best is fresh and alive! Grow these fruits and vegies. See seedsavers video on native Australian plum. Jude Fanton

    that faulse.. MANY other foods got more antioxidants than strawberries and potatoes, and even blueberries..

    Example: Astaxin (gets it from krill and “alger”- in norwegiaN)

    Acai berries, from the amazonas, has proven to have twice as much antioxidants than blueberries, Granat-apple… and so much more.. This would maybe be the “top most eaten antioxidant food”

    cuz of carbs? idiot.. carbs raise insulin

    she forgot to mention to watch out with the insulin raise some of those foods could cause making the antioxidants useless. fruits are not healthy for everbody.

    I don’t understand your question? Can you pose it another way? I’d be more than happy to get back to you on this!

    I think you are …
    I think you are right. When the USDA conducted their tests, they may have included the most popular fruits and veggies .. thus, black currants are probably a super fruit as well. The way I look at it, the more fruits and veggies we all eat, the better!
    Thanks for your comment.

  23. theTeabag says:

    I also asked why …
    I also asked why wild and cultivated blueberries differ in antioxidant levels?? This is very weird.

    BTW bilberries (easily available where I live) have much more antioxidants than blueberries.

    ~MealMakeoverTV, I think I was commenting Your video and my post seems to have disappeared.

    It’s a shame because I was hoping to get an answer why blackcurrants haven’t been listed even though they are known to contain more anthocyanins than blueberries, cranberries, grapes, apples etc. plus they have record ammounts of vitamin C????
    I suggested that maybe the study investigates only the most promoted products on American market.
