Like if you're an omnivore, you would have some combination of meat and then a combination of different plants. And that's your plate. And that's pretty basic. And that's like actually a formula for success in 2025. Like, it's amazing how far we've drifted that we have to make an argument to eat real food to try to bring people back to normal. It's insane.

And it's 30 different? 30 different. But first of all, let me say this, because sometimes I think people hear this and they kind of panic. It feels too much. Okay. So this is not 30 different vegetables. This is not 30 different raw vegetables. This is all fruits, vegetables, whole grains, seeds, nuts, legumes, herbs, spices, all that counts.

Every single one. And if we, you know, here's the issue, Nick, like truly that our food system will not do this for you. So if you're relying on the food system to help you to make choices of what you put into your body, it will fail. And then your body fails as a result of that.

The flip side is that if I successfully install this into your consciousness so that when you walk through the door of that supermarket, I'm not just talking about the fresh produce section. I'm talking about the whole supermarket. When you walk through that door, if you're thinking, what can I add? What can I add? You're going to be successful.

And it's not a matter of, did he hit this magic number of 30? Because that's not what it's really about. It's about where are you today? And then where can we move this to increase the variety of different plant-based foods in your diet? And the reason why, by the way, this is so important is that we have to think about what is the makeup of our food?

And when it comes to plant-based foods, there's certain specific things that we should be chasing in our diet that we get from unique plants. And that includes fiber. Fiber is not a generic thing. That's like saying protein is a generic thing. That would be like saying that the protein in a bean is the same as the protein from a steak. They're not the same. Right?

The protein, the fiber in a plant is unique to the individual plant. So every plant has unique types of fiber and those unique types of fiber will feed different families of microbes. So when you eat kale, it's not the same effect on your microbiome as if you grabbing a handful of nuts, they're not the same. That's why we want both because then we can feed all the different families.
