Doctor Reveals "Healthiest" Grocery Store Items

My mom said when I was little she would put vegetables in almost every food without us knowing to make us like vegetables when we were older. It WORKED

I love that he emphasises that each person has a different healthy diet for them. Because of stomach issues, my diet is low fiber, low fat. Because of a heart issue, I need high sodium. Which is very different from most people, but it’s the healthiest diet for me!

My only critique Doc is that you should always purchase your frozen food 2nd to last and then refrigeration last. This aids in ensuring your cold food has less time to rise to room temperature. Just a little tip from me to you 😁

Congrats on 10 million

Dr Mike waking up at night and cracking open a can of sardines is gonna live rent free in my head now😂

4:13 100% true. As a kid in America, we never ever ever had junk food in my house. I did not eat my first fruit by the foot or pop tart until my late teens. I was not exposed to fast food until my late teens early 20s. This made a huge difference in my diet and my lifestyle.

Can we just appreciate how mike knows all the nutritional information off the top of his head 😂

This was so cool. I was well aware that it was sponsored throughout... but it didn't feel corny. You truly took a sponsored opportunity and turned it into an educational one. 99% of people don't have an Amazon fresh store near by. So you sold the product.. without selling anything other than helpful knowledge. I had no idea that frozen berries still had the nutrients we need. I also paid a great deal of attention to what you DIDN'T buy. No pasta 😭 no easy frozen meals. This was the classiest and most helpful sponsored post I'd ever seen!

I would love to see a video on healthy shopping at places like dollar tree, dollar general, or big lots. A lot of us want to be healthy but live in places that don’t have a lot of fresh produce. What canned and frozen foods are the best?

I started watching Dr. Mike from a video with his nephews. He was telling them about how instagram images isn’t what real life people and life are like. After that, I subscribed immediately. As someone with two daughters, this is the education and awareness we need to spread to our young communities! Also, his advice is beneficial for health and he seems to have a very positive outlook on taking care of your health! 😊

"How a doctor goes shopping" I once watched my wife's nephrologist walk in to the hospital cafeteria and purchase 6 packaged egg salad sandwiches. We mentioned it in passing to our family doc and he says "oh yeah, those sandwiches are the only thing he eats, it's kind of scary". We all laughed, but it made me realize that doctors don't necessarily practice what they preach.

Doctor Mike has got to be one of the most Wholesome channels on YouTube. He doesn't pretend to be perfect and is always trying to grow and improve with us! Congrats on 10mil and please keep helping the world learn and take charge of our own health!

Thank you for talking about the importance of spices! I have so many spices in my kitchen it's overwhelming sometimes but my food is never boring. Just be careful what you are grabbing because some of those premixed seasonings have added stuff like sugar and starches.

You’re grocery list is literally mine haha. I’m a nutrition and dietetics major and I introduced my teacher to Dave’s Killer Bread. She was very impressed.

Sometimes I think that not having junk food in the house might make kids eat it more. Not being allowed something often makes kids really binge on it when they can have it. Every friend I had that wasn’t allowed junk food always bought junk and candy and sweets at school, where kids who had access to it generally craved it a lot less

As a Malaysian, sardines are the way to go! We usually add in some chillies, tomatoes, shallots and garlic to it and pair it with white rice. We don’t usually eat that specifically as snacks, but it’s affordable, filling and nutritious as a main course.

I genuinely would LOVE to see more content like this, because I'm someone who absolutely has NO idea what to do when it comes to food. Both in buying, and in preparing it, and I literally sat down and took notes for my next shopping trip because there was so much good, easily understandable information here that made me feel a lot more confident in what I could be buying that's better for me and my individual health. Thanks, Doctor Mike!

This set up of grocery shopping is an introverts dream

This video was really well-done and helpful, I have been searching for a doctor’s opinion on which foods to buy, how they help, and even exactly what vitamins are in them for a while now. I also watch all of your videos regularly. Thank you so much, Dr. Mike!
