So, Dr. Patrick, you are about to teach us how you make the smoothie that you have every day.

And for those of you that are listening, I'm just going to tell you, I see kale, I see blueberry, I see avocado, I see protein, and I see something I can't pronounce.

Okay.

It's a beta-glucan powder made from barley.

Before we get into the smoothie I make every day, I kind of want to give a little bit of reason why I like to do a smoothie every day.

And it really has to...it comes down to realizing

that what we do in our lifestyle and our diet really is impactful on the way we age and our life expectancy.

A lot of people think genetics are the most important thing.

And when it comes down to it, really 80% of how long we live and how well we live has to do with our lifestyle.

Hold on.

80%?

80%. About 80%.

Yeah.

I would say about 20% to 25% is genetics.

But what I'm going to tell you is this study that actually came out of Harvard here in Boston.

And it was really, I mean, it was a few years ago, but it was really a compelling study

because what it did was looked at people's diet and lifestyle

and their life expectancy and found that if people followed just like five different lifestyle factors,

it could increase their life expectancy between 12 and 14 years.

So women on average that were not doing all five of these lifestyle factors, which is a big part of it is what we're going be looking at here,

they lived on average about 79 years.

If they did include all five of the lifestyle factors, they lived to the age of about...

They added 14 years.

So they lived to about 93.

What?

14 years?

14 years.

If they started at age 50, five different healthy lifestyle factors included all five, they lived to age 93.

So it was a 14-year increase in life expectancy.

For men that started at age 50, it was a 12-year increased life expectancy.

So they were living on average 75.5 years, and they went up to about 86 years.

And just what are quickly those five?

Yes.

The five are adopting a healthy lifestyle pattern, which we're going to talk about.

Not smoking.

Doing three and a half hours of moderate or vigorous intensity per week.

We talked a lot about the vigorous intensity exercise, 10 minutes a day.

That would be 70 minutes a week.

And so you're basically going to add on to that by doing some of the more moderate intensity exercise.

Okay.

So that was number three.

Number four is not consuming excess alcohol.

So women were consuming fewer than one drink per day and men consumed about one drink per day or fewer.

Okay.

And then the last one is maintaining a healthy BMI.

Those were the five lifestyle factors that could add between 12 to 14 years to your life expectancy.

And on top of that, those individuals were free from diseases like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, cancer, right?

So you're living healthy years, which is what you want.

The nutrition part is a big component of this.

So those individuals were eating...

They were in the top 40% of what's called the alternative healthy eating pattern.

And what that includes is, first and foremost, you have to have four to five servings of fruits and vegetables per day.

So those vegetables, what's a serving is the question.

A serving was either a cup of leafy greens.

So you have to have four to five of that.

And so you can see here, this is a measuring cup.

This is a cup for those people, that person that's listening.

And she's packing, just regular old kale, nothing fancy about it, right into the one cup, metal measuring cup.

Kale, and remember, you got to get five of these per day.

And this is why this is efficient.

We've been talking about efficient.

We've been talking about what can we do that's easy, that's going to give us the biggest bang for our buck.

I find it's easiest for me to get five servings of vegetables if I can at least, you know, get a smoothie in.

So here's the kale.

That's one cup.

I'm going to add another cup here.

You're getting two servings in.

I'm getting two servings.

I'm probably going to get around three servings of kale into that smoothie.

Three cups of kale.

So three cups of kale.

There we go.

And that is.. and then I can substitute the rest with my salad.

Kale is really high in lutein.

Lutein is that thing that's going to prevent your eyes from macular degeneration.

It also seems to protect the brain.

It improves cognitive processing, cognitive speed, fluid intelligence.

That's the kind of intelligence that you've accumulated throughout a lifetime and then can still incorporate when you're older.

That's what we want, right?

So kale has a lot of that.

It also has magnesium.

It has calcium.

It has vitamin K.

It's got a lot of these micronutrients that we need to get from our diet.

The next thing I like to add is blueberries.

And blueberries are part of that serving size of fruit and vegetables.

And again, it's about a half a cup as a serving.

So if you want five servings of that, you're going to get about two and a half cups of the blueberries.

I also like blueberries because they're high in polyphenols, a specific type of polyphenol called anthocyanins.

And those have been shown in randomized placebo-controlled studies that's very important because placebo effect is real, as we've talked about.

But the blueberries have been shown one cup a day to improve cognition.

That's important, right?

We all want to improve cognition.

It's been shown in young adults.

It's been shown in older adults.

It's been shown in adults with mild cognitive decline.

So everyone has every reason to try to take at least one cup of blueberries a day.

So I'm going to put one cup.

Yep.

100

And we use frozen, which I also like.

101

They're frozen, yes they're cheaper than buying them fresh.

102

And I do have, I do like to usually use organic because I don't want a lot of pesticides.

103

But I do like frozen also because it keeps the smoothie cold and it just gives it a better, like you don't want your smoothie really warm.

104

So I got two cups.

105

Two cups of blueberries.

106

Three cups of caitlin.

107

I'm going to do two and a half cups.

108

Wow, okay.

109

Two and a half cups of blueberries.

110

And then one thing I do not add to my smoothie is a banana.

111

Now, why don't you like bananas?

112

I mean, I love bananas.

113

I love bananas.

114

They're high in potassium.

115

They're good to refuel.

116

I love to do them before a run.

117

It gives me enough fuel without cramping, right?

118

But I used to put them in my smoothies.

119

Dr. Patrick, what happens when you put a banana in a smoothie?

120

What happens is there's something in the banana called polyphenol oxidase.

121

That doesn't sound good.

122

Doesn't sound good.

123

Polyphenols are what I just said are beneficial.

124

Yes.

125

Oxidase, polyphenol oxidase, is essentially an enzyme that's breaking down the polyphenols.

126

And there have now been studies that have come out showing if you add bananas to blueberries, you're not getting as many polyphenols.

127

In fact, it's quite a bit lower.

128

So the banana is killing the benefit of the...

129

See, this is why I need you, because I am sitting here making smoothies thinking I like the texture of the banana in it.

130

It gives a little heft, creams it out a little bit.

131

But then I'm putting in my blueberries and I just blew it because the banana canceled the blueberries.

132

It's true.

133

I also used to add it to my blueberries for the exact reason plus the taste.

134

If you go to any smoothie place, you'll see they always add bananas to any blueberry smoothie.

135

Yes, of course.

136

But that's where the avocado comes in.

137

Because now you're going to get the creamy texture that you want, which is what I also want.

138

Yes.

139

And on top on top of that, there have been studies showing that the fat, so this monounsaturated fat in this avocado,

140

it actually increases the bioavailability of the lutein and another carotenoid called zeaxanthin in the kale by fourfold.

141

Okay, well, hold on.

142

Let me just make sure I'm tracking with this.

143

So if I sub the avocado for the banana, right, then the fact that the avocado,

144

which is a good, healthy fat source, is gonna dance around and mix it up with the kale, that fat source superpowers the benefit of the kale?

145

It does.

146

That's cool.

147

It makes it where you're, so getting rid of the banana makes it where you're getting the polyphenols from the blueberries, and then adding the avocado gives you the creaminess

148

and it helps you superpower and get those carotenoids

149

that are in the kale that are so beneficial for our eyes

150

and brains and making it fourfold more likely to be absorbed.

151

So you're getting a lot more.

152

And there are studies showing this.

153

Adding an avocado, carrots have carotenoids in them, so you can get the beta carotene is probably the most well-known carotenoid.

154

You get fourfold more beta carotene.

155

So you could even add a carrot in here if you want.

156

In fact, I often like to add carrots as well.

157

So I'm going to just use my fingers and put that.

158

I usually do about half of an avocado and you can save the other half for the next day.

159

And then you know what I do?

160

I put this little top that's empty on top of the other one and then it doesn't like turn brown.

161

Right.

162

You can add a little lemon juice as well that'll prevent it from oxidizing.

163

A little tent.

164

All right so this is really the core of the smoothie here.

165

Now these are the optionals here.

166

I like to add some protein powder, particularly on days when I'm really busy.

167

I'm not getting, I know I'm skipping a meal because I'm not getting all the protein that I need for the day,

168

which is about 1.2 to 1.6 grams per kilogram body weight per day.

169

And so I'll add sometimes a little bit of whey protein powder as well.

170

You don't have to do that if you're getting your protein.

171

This is again an optional add.

172

I think it's very hard to get the amount of protein we're supposed to get

173

so i'm always adding it in a lot like i do

174

so i'm gonna go ahead

175

and add the protein powder i do like i'm not i have no affiliation with momentous currently right now

176

and but i do like their protein powder

177

because it doesn't have any fillers that affect my gut and

178

so i'm just scooping down to get their scooper

179

because their scooper is the actual serving size there it is It's so funny, they're always hidden down there.

180

Okay.

181

So I'm going to take one scoop of protein powder,

182

which for this one has 23 grams.

183

So here, in it goes.

184

If you're sharing it, you can do two scoops.

185

So I think I'll do like a scoop and a half.

186

Does that mean you're sharing it with me?

187

I hope it does.

188

Oops.

189

Okay.

190

And then an optional ad...so this is actually a type of prebiotic fiber.

191

You've probably heard of that.

192

It's like prebiotic fiber.

193

You've heard of probiotics.

194

I've heard of fiber, and I've heard of probiotics.

195

Okay.

196

Probiotics are the beneficial bacteria.

197

If you take those, it helps.

198

Prebiotics are the type of fiber, soluble fiber, fermentable fiber, that feed the bacteria in your gut.

199

Okay.

200

So that's why it's called a prebiotic.

201

Got it.

202

Okay.

203

Feeding it.

204

of prebiotic is beta-glucan and it's isolated from barley in this case.

205

The reason why I have now added this to my, I would say, regimen, soon-to-be smoothie regimen,

206

is because this has been shown in studies, one, to lower LDL cholesterol,

207

which is a type of cholesterol that can build up in your arteries and play a role in cardiovascular disease.

208

But what really peaked my attention was the fact that there's studies showing that beta-glucans can decrease the amount of forever chemicals,

209

the PFAS, forever chemicals that usually last in your body anywhere between 2 to 5 years.

210

They're associated with cancer.

211

It's really terrible.

212

And we're being exposed to them all the time, even on our fruits and vegetables.

213

They're in the soil.

214

You know, it's something that even kids are being exposed to.

215

So now I'm something that I've been giving to my whole family.

216

Okay, how much do I need?

217

So usually I do one gram and one gram, it says here's three tablespoons.

218

So I'm going to grab that tablespoon.

219

Oh, okay.

220

Okay.

221

One, two, three.

222

Plus a count stored fiber, which is great.

223

Yes.

224

Okay.

225

Now the study that showed it reduced forever chemicals, it was three grams a day.

226

So you have to do the three tablespoons three times a day to get that.

227

Yeah.

228

It's a lot.

229

Yes.

230

Yeah.

231

Or you can add, perhaps you can add more and get it in one serving, but we're going to start with the three grams.

232

Okay.

233

Then add a little bit of water just to mix it up a little bit.

234

And as I'm standing here over the blender, Mel, I just want to point out one thing in that this blender is made of plastic.

235

Okay.

236

And there is a little bit of a concern

237

that plastic blenders can shed microplastics more readily because of the friction with everything that's in there.

238

So you should have a glass one

239

if you can have glass there's also some metal ones

240

that you can buy as well but you hear

241

that everybody we got to get a glass blender around here

242

okay thank you for giving us the pass dr patrick here

243

she is about to hit the blend everybody cover your ears here we go

244

oh that's really purple yeah i like the quality healthy

245

I just want to see what the consistency looks like.

246

Yeah, I think we're good.

247

Excellent.

248

Well, I got two wine glasses since we're not drinking alcohol.

249

We might as well.

250

It's polyphenol hour.

251

Yes, there we go.

252

Yeah, and the polyphenols, I feel them immediately.

253

It's been shown increased blood flow to the brain in older adults.

254

What exactly do you feel?

255

It improves my mood and gives me energy.

256

So I do take this midday.

257

Just do a little glass.

258

I'm actually kind of excited to try this.

259

Well, everything always tastes better when somebody else makes it.

260

I mean, that's true.

261

So polyphenol hour.

262

Cheers.

263

Cheers to your health, Dr. Patrick.

264

Let's try her new smoothie recipe.

265

Here we go. That tastes like health.

266

It's not sweet enough for me.

267

It's not bad.

268

It's not supposed to be sweet, though, right?

269

It's not.

270

You can add the extra cup of blueberries to make it sweeter.

271

And, of course, you can never get enough blueberries.

272

You definitely taste the kale.

273

And it has the same consistency as if we had put a banana.

274

It does.

275

It's creamy.

276

Yeah.

277

And I love the purple.

278

And actually, the prebiotic fiber didn't really mess with the consistency, to be honest.

279

Well, I don't know, because you're the one that makes this all the time.

280

Right.

281

So I wouldn't be able to tell a difference.

282

It really didn't.

283

No. Okay.

284

Now, if I'm putting that much fiber in my smoothie, do I need to drink more water?

285

Is that going to back me up?

286

No, this is not the kind of fiber that you have.

287

Don't worry about that.

288

This is prebiotic fiber that's a little bit different.

289

Because I know if you were doing like psyllium husk or some of the other stuff, you got to really make sure you're hydrating.

290

Right.

291

It's bringing, you got to make sure you get more water in you.

292

Right.

293

Amazing.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
