Unfortunately, I have to use skim milk and low fat cream cheese and yogurt due to my lack of a gallbladder 😔 consuming anything higher than 7g of fat in a single day puts me in so much pain!!
Get papaya enzymes.
Everyone is different – so happy that you have low fat alternatives available! So long as you do your best to eat a varied diet in moderation, it all evens out ❤❤
I didn’t even know you could get low fat cream cheese. I’m sorry you have to eat low fat 🙁 but if it helps your condition that is a good thing. I freaking love bread, but I’m gluten sensitive and I get bad bloating if I indulge. So I feel your pain, at least a little.
Thanks. Love it like all of your videos. But some constructive feedback: if you slightly speed up especially videos that contain specific (e.g. chemical) terminology, it is very hard for me as a none native speaker to get everything. Maybe you want to consider that. Thanks again and greetings from Berlin!
Thank you ! I came here wanting to add this exact comment.
I had to watch this video 3 times, plus add subtitles, to understand fully all of this very interesting content.
Quite frustrating, particularly since I really enjoy Abby’s videos.
Hi from France.
Thank you this!!
Full fat dairy also just tastes better IMO
That’s a fact ✌🏽
I once ate low fat cheese and it tasted fine. I would like to eat low-fat despite the research, ’cause I’m a firm believer in CICO (calories in, calories out). The problem is I wanna buy organic dairy and they don’t have low fat options in my country 🤷♀️
@@soybean3423even though its worst you you will eat or
Nothing like full fat real yogurt! Such a versatile ingredient too
I accidentally bought low fat creamer instead of the regular kind. It wasn’t creamy and I hated it. Still trying to get through it to use it up.
Could you get your regular and mix them, 1:2 ratio, low fat to regular ? It will make your full fat creamer last longer and you will use up the low fat one ? May not work but might increase your enjoyment instead of battling through using the low fat one til it is gone x
mix it with a full fat
thank you for the suggestion. will try that the next time i make coffee. lets hope the low fat vanilla one mixes with a full fat hazelnut one haha.
You can always mix it with half and half.
Wow, low fat creamer sounds like an oxymoron lol
Thank you! I’ve been arguing with my PCP for years about this. Low-fat just makes me more hungry for something more. Full fat fills me up, making me much less likely to reach for bad choices.
Nevermind the sugar contents are more in fat and low fat dairy
I hate when doctors get like this. They should be happy that you’re reaching for dairy over processed junk.
@@karintraut8151 LMAO Only if you go for a sweetened, flavored variety. If you get plain yogurt, you add your own choice. As for milk, it’s been proven that the sugar absorption rate is very limited because of the fat content.
That’s probably why I’m so healthy. I’ve never eaten lowfat anything.
Recently, I’ve started loving eating kefir yoghurt. It doesn’t taste as amazing as full fat yoghurt but it makes me feel like I’m doing something good for my gut health 😂
I really appreciate this clarification! You have inspired me to take a nutrition class at my uni, but one of their biggest recommendations they were teaching was to opt for lower fat dairy products. I knew it was different from what you suggest, so thanks for telling us why! ❤
So your classes are going to be based on what’s evidence based scientific research on what’s best for most people or what leads to the least amount of harm. Therefore, what they are teaching is true. Just because one dietitian on the Internet has her opinions, doesn’t discount decades worth of research suggesting high fat dairy items can be more harmful in other areas. Any nutrient that could be found in high fat dairy can be found elsewhere in less harmful foods.
@@jassy0903the dietitian on the internet brought the research. The old guidelines are constantly being proven inadequate.
@@pattyofurnitureyou are correct that some things evolve over time as we build on what we know. What isn’t true is the erasure of all the evidence we have from reputable researchers over the last 50 years because the dairy counsel paid for articles to be written on their behalf. An article with a fancy title isn’t research. Now if we hear something from NIH about a randomly selected, double blind, placebo controlled cohort, then we can start thinking differently. It’s a whole other conversation on how the FTC is now requiring RD’s to link to credible research any time they make a health claim. Not just whatever they can find that looks “good enough” to fool an audience
I used to drink low fat milk. When I switched back to whole milk my weight didn’t go up. I enjoyed it more but ate less.
This was one of the best things I learned about healthy eating! I took the full fat dairy and never looked back. The taste is far superior.
I love whole milk. It tastes so much better and i usually have a glass of it if i have the munchies
Love my 11% Greek yogurt 😋 ❤
I would love to hear your thoughts on the studies looking at the food derived opiates in dairy and the effects on our physiology. It’s super interesting and I think you’d have major insights.
What % would your recommend for milk? Whole milk @ 3.25?
I wish I could have yogurt with fat, but I’m lactose intolerant so all I can have is Liberte’s lactose free Greek which is 0%. I love it though and I’m glad there’s at least an option.
My adhd brain does not understand the fast forwarded videos 😭😭😭😭
Yeah I wish she’d add subtitles
Yes! I use some fats in my diet to buffer my body’s response to carbs as a diabetic and find it super helpful particularly when I’m eating out and low carb options are harder to find.
When we’d have an abundance of milk in the summer from our cows and lots of cream for butter and our coffee – I’ll just shake a gallon together cream and all (usually a good quart of cream to a gallon) it’s delicious
I eat both – full fat on occasion and fat free frequently. My family has a health history that warrants me to be careful of eating full fat foods.
