  1. Of Course you can't get it here in the USA!
    If it was toxic or sugar you would have no problem getting it! LOL
    Thanks for the Video!!

  2. Ate this for the first time this summer because of you! 🌵😄 You are Cara should join the Rejuvenation Olympics. It would be so awesome to have raw vegans in the top spots 🥬🫛🌱🥒🥦💚💚💚💚💚

  3. I am so stressed right now. Taking care of aging parents, one of whom is dying with a failing heart and on hospice. My Mom needs help with household chores. I spent 4 out of 5 days there last week. Then i got sick. Im the oldeat in my 50s with relative good health.. im going to get a cactus ear sometime this coming week. Maybe it will help me to be atronger and more energetic. Idk

  4. My heart is full of love for you Markus and Cara. Your kindness towards everything alive on earth moves me. I'm with you. I'm waiting for your company with the next video…❤

  5. Because of Marcus I've been making the aloe vera Cactus pads smoothie and I love it! Then my Mexican friend told me her grandma used to put it in everything that she could, or that we normally use green peppers in because it was free and she just diced it up raw in salads, put it in stews, scrambled eggs and lentils etc. So i started doing that & it is excellent. To be honest, i dont even taste it. ❤❤💋

  6. Where I live, it’s kind of in the desert and the cactus just grow everywhere with the fruit. The needles are so thick on the plants so I don’t dare get them and put them in the blender. Fear that I’m gonna get one of those big old long things in my throat or esophagus and have to have surgery. Markus am I being too paranoid?

  7. My father is diabetic and he makes the cactus drink from 2012 video every day and his diabetes is controlled even though he still eats like crap lol so i imagine if he changed his diet he would be healed .DO IT FOLKS you wont regret it.

  8. I’m lucky. My town is filled with stores where I can get this and other gems quite cheap. Right now I’ve got persimmons! They are so delicious 😋

  9. Maarkus, Drs Berry, Chaffee, and Dr. Shawn Baker all teach that we do Not need fiber! Oh how I wish I knew the truth. Used to be vegan until all my health problems started. Now, you're saying we should have fiber???? I'm so confused and not sure about anything anymore, please please tell me the truth.

  10. 1:48
    carnivore diet isnt even that good in ADEK
    A yes (at least if u do organs like kidney or liver or something), D depends if animals got sun, E hardly at all…, K1 almost none (K2 only when fermented, but then plants got more even)
    carni isnt too shabby for choline iron zinc o3 tho 🧐

  11. This brings back good memories of first discovering your channel years ago! I was just going through the popular videos on your channel the other day and was reminded of your old super popular cactus video!

  12. So COOL to see Cara and you enjoying nopales, and the tunas (the fruit). If you like sour, I truly recommend you guys check out the variant Xoconostle(the x in náhuatl has an "sh" sound) that concentrates its seeds in the center and is very SOUR, the total opposite of the tunas the nopales produce. And considering you both like berries, check out also the Myrtilo Cactus, it grows to the size of a small peach tree, but each spring it blooms numerous flowers (just like the fruit trees) and by may thru june we can harvest the garambuyos, as sweet as blueberries, just one downside, they're loaded with numerous, tiny black seeds.🌵👍🤠

  13. Markus, I'm guessing the cactus really targeted the gastric cancer well because it obviously enters the stomach. Do you think that in addition to eating it (plus doing your regimens), it might help kill breast cancer if applied topically? I've tried many things topically, currently mullein & lobelia. I might have to cut out low glycemic fruit.

  14. Markus, I love beef jerky, so for giggles, I tried vegan Jerky from Beyond Meat, and I was completely surprised. It tasted like beef jerky and the texture was identical to beef jerky. I would love to see you make a video about how far vegan meat has come.

  15. Hey Markus, I have just watched your cactus aloe video, but have low vision, and so was not sure if you threw in an entire aloe leaf or just the gel???

  16. We celebrated Thanksgiving on Sunday, October 13, at my parents' house. Growing up in an Italian household, prickly pears are a cherished staple during their season.

  17. always interested in plants that can make dry lands more appealing or livable , didn't realize the nopales could be had like that. I had been told by some friends in Kenya they saw it online and it really helped them… I love how we have some aloe vera here for deworming and gut cleansing. I like drinking aloe juice even though it is bitter it's so refreshing. This seems like it would be great with some mint and sugarcane or citrus like you did

  18. Hi Marcus! So thankful for you and the wealth of information you share. My QUESTION: You talked in a video with Dr Sloan about Ozone therapy. Do we need to worry about killing our gut probiotics (we worked really hard to restore) when doing rectally or orally?

    I would appreciate any resource or knowledge you can share. My wife (39) daughter (6.5) and I (40) will be doing the therapy.

  19. Got some prickly pears and i peal them with a potato peeler. I put 3 of them in your Green smoothie. It’s delicious.
