I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of the positive messages and words of encouragement. It makes a huge difference seeing the amount of people that care about me and my well-being. I will not give up! This is just another obstacle in the way. I love you all ❤️
I feel you on the frustration 😒 I have changed my diet several times to be tons healthier. I am diagnosed with fibromyalgia arthritis and neuropathy along with intestinal issues. But I still struggle and it's very hard ... depressing but you need to do what's right for your body your health which includes your mental health. You got this keep your head up. God is with us every step of the way
Your story really hit home bro. I have similar issues as you (keratoconus, scalp problems) and I tried so many different things. I never thought I might be allergic to gluten and wheat until now so that's something I'm going to keep an eye on now. I went vegan 9 months ago and for the most part its been great but I also workout 5-6 times a week and I noticed over the past few months im struggling to add muscle or even maintain what I already have since I went vegan. I'm going to slowly add in a couple animal products (grilled chicken, eggs) a few times a week to see if it makes a difference. Prayers up bro you aren't alone.
A few things. It sounds like you've had health problems throughout your life, even well before you were plant-based. Your situation reminds me "Vegetable Police", who has jumped from diet to diet, each time the new diet being "the right one", until 6-12 months later when he would change again due to health problems once again rising to the surface. The key point with him, and probably you, is that there's an underlying health condition going on that can be exacerbated by any diet, if it has certain triggers in it. In addition, you could have SIBO, or some other GI bacterial issues, etc., that have been triggered by certain specific foods, not just by being plant-based in general. Veganism is not a diet, but a philosophy, btw. As for your nutritionist/dietitian, there are many out there who really don't know what they're talking about, and have no clue on plant-based diets. She clearly is one of them. You need a new nutritionist. The fact that she told you to eat butter, and that you NEED animal products shows that she is grossly misinformed. Telling you to eat butter is just flat-out dangerous, long-term. If you're serious about "veganism", you should find a plant-based nutritionist to help you through your ways. Where there's a will, there's a way, and it can be done through a plant-based diet. You have to eat whole-food plant-based and nothing or almost zero processed things, not Moriningstar burgers, etc. You have to really eat 100% WFPB. And you can be plant-based and be gluten-free, as that might be one of your triggers. You kept talking about gluten and conflating it with plant-based, but they are not one and the same. (And it's easy to get more than 90 grams of protein btw. There are many plant-based athletes killin' it out there). I am commenting not with anger towards you, it just seems that you're way of thinking this through is quite flawed. Stay away from animal products, being "grass-fed" doesn't make them magical or uber-healthy, there's not a scientific consensus on that, only blogger BS. Stay away from dairy and try avoiding gluten in your case. You should follow "Nutrition Made Simple" on RUclips, he's quite on point on nutrition, more so than your nutritionist. And find a new nutritionist....peace.....
You’re clearly biased in this case and that’s okay. Please don’t try to discredit others work and you have no idea who they are and what they stand for. I appreciate you for watching though. Have a great day ❤️
Don't worry you will get better. I was vegetarian vegan and pescotarian off and on for over 25 years. It was when I went vegan this last time I realized how deficient I was. I now eat meat. I had the most horrible hive breakouts , its been 2 years since I've been eating meat and I have no breakouts anymore. My body became so sensitive to anything I ate. Literally everytime I ate I had a horrible break out. My body gained muscle without me exercising once I changed my diet. You should watch the channel vegan deterioration she has a lot of vegan stories from different peoples perspective also groatis and sveirge channel. I may have spelled the last one wrong. You are not alone. I hope you heal 🙏 soon.
Hey handsome, please don’t let this bring you down. You’ve been to the doctors and you have no MAJOR problems. Keep working on your nutrition, you’ll get over it ! I NEVER went to a doctor until I got old. Had a phone call a month ago from my primary dr. Possibility I had cancer. Got results of biopsy today…no cancer!! You will beat this because you care about your body. I think the stress and depression is what is making you feel fatigued. Think positively ! You can do it ! There are a lot of people who care about you ! ❤️
Tyrell, I am praying for your perseverance. I understand 100%. I tried a vegan diet for a while but I lost too much weight, relied on carbs too much, and it zapped my energy. I think a vegan diet has many amazing benefits, but our biome needs certain things. I would suggest simply making sure you still get a good amount of veggies, fruits, and legumes. Take it one day at a time. 😊 hello, Argos!
Thank you Ginia! I felt good when I first switched honestly but ultimately everyone body is different. And of course. Thank you for watching and commenting 🙏🏾❤️
I went vegan for 1 yr in 2018-2019 too, and It was easy since i did not like meat much that time. But honestly my mental health was badly affected although my physical was good. I felt very cold since my body needed fats lol. Cant say much of what happened, but I feel great now.... God bless you!!❤ PS: love the dog at 17:20 🤣🤣
What's up Tyrell!! Started watching your video with Argos because my family and I are thinking of getting a lab pit mix. Cool video and funny as hell when you dressed him up for his birthday and Halloween together. Saw this video and wanted to help out. You seem like a mad cool dude and hate to see bad things happen to good people. Yes definitely avoid wheat at all costs. Gluten causes alot of inflammation in the body. I hear ya about Gardein. Almost everything has wheat or soy. For that it has to be the veggie or black bean burgers. Make sure to always check the labels. Stop dairy altogether. Try coconut milk, oatmilk, almond if you don't have an allergy towards it. Chobani makes an awesome plant based milk and coffee creamer which is delicious. Try to incorporate a prebiotic and probiotic to cleanse and feed your gut with good bacteria. Try kimchi, sauerkraut, yogurt but make sure it has no dairy. Brands like So Delicious are good for that. Going vegan is good but again tons of wheat and people don't realize that. Eat your veggies dude. Broccoli, kale, brussel sprouts all the good green cruciferous ones. I hope this helps out a little bit. It's not a diet, your making a lifestyle change for the better. Try and shop at Whole Foods if there is one near you. I also shop at Sprouts. I'm in Charlotte. A more natural store, organic non GMO's. Hope you feel better. Argos and the people in your life need ya. Peace out brother.
@@TyrellFrye No problem. Glad to help out and hope the best for you. We got a beautiful 7 week old lab pit mix. She is adorable. My family and I couldn't be happier. Lots of Joy!!!
Hey.. thanks for sharing your story. I listened to it properly. To let you know I have failed on a vegan diet 2 times before becoming successful the third time.. It's a very hard diet but also when you do get it right it's the optimal diet to prevent heart disease and cancer. I feel at the peak of my calisthenics sessions. If you still want to go back to vegan diet I can help you.. @11:50 you said about Vitamin D.. That's right natural sources of vitamin D is fish, eggs and liver. Either eat them more regularly or take a supplement. Anyway Americans are deficient in vitamin D.. but anyway I am here to help whether you choose vegan diet or omnivore diet.. @12:15 You said which was probably connected to depression. Depression is extremely complex subject. You can get help with r/depression on reddit but my opinion would be to spend less time on screen and RUclips or in your house and go out interact with people more face to face. @12:30 Stomach hurts because we consume fake meat and refined bread and products. Every food that does not naturally exist in nature is a GUT KILLER. sooner or later you develop IBS. My opinion here would be to eat natural, whether you choose meat or plants does not matter but eat natural whole cooked foods at home. @12:45 Meat produces a lot of heat in the body. Since you stopped eating it you were more cold. This is talked in Ayurveda. If you want to feel warm you will need to eat nuts and mangoes for heat in the body. There is complex reaction behind all this. But Eating mangoes in excess will cause stomach problems again because gut does not tolerate high fructose in diet which comes in fruit. @13:20 Doctor says it on the basis of range. It's always advisable to look at the blood test yourself just to check whether you are on the lower end of normal range or too high end in the normal range. For example Vit D and B12 people don't feel alright even in the normal range but towards the lower end of 'normal'. @13:50 Taking multivitamins regularly without any reason can cause toxicity in blood creating numerous problems. It's only B12, low dose of Vit and omega 3(EPA,DHA) from algae capsules you are supposed to take. But I will tell you more about it since vegan diet is very hard. @17:10 Yes, wheat was introduced in the human diet very recently in the industrial era. I also avoid dairy and gluten products. I go for oats. @18:00 Yes, again a random vegan does not tell you that you also will have thyroid problems unless you eat sea weed regularly, but then again you can overdose. So I go for iodized salt.. I add salt in my food so I get enough iodine from diet through iodized salt. Very common among vegetarian population to use iodized salt in their food. @18:30 Since I see you are dealing with stress and pressure, don't go on a vegan diet. Eat a balanced omnivore diet with more plants in it. You did water fasting on a vegan diet, definitely not needed since it's already high in antioxidants.. Fasting is awesome for people who eat lot of meat and they find health improvements through it.. But on a whole food vegan diet fasting will cause problems because of not eating enough, and since it's already high in antioxidants. @18:50 Totally agreed... vegan diet is extremely hard for people who don't know what they are doing.. I failed 2 times before getting it right the third time... You will need to track your nutrition on cronometer and you will see that daily you are not hitting your requirements.. don't get me wrong.. I still learnt all of it and now I find it easy because now I know what I need to eat in order to get everything without stuffing too much food. @19:40 exactly.. natural sources over supplements.. but you need to see what price your body pays.. it's complex.. despite of failing two times I am still on a vegan diet because my calisthenics performance are through the roof on it, plus I don't want to trigger cancer or heart disease on a omnivore diet..but no need to be afraid. You don't need to live a optimal life.. Just eat a balanced omnivore diet.. mediterranean style..learn the patterns from the blue zones on how much meat to eat without overdosing. @20:00 on a vegan diet if you need 100+ gms of protein per day, you will need to eat boiled lentils two times a day.. and nope you can't eat it all at one meal.. you need to eat three times a day.. breakfast oats, lunch and dinner being lentils, veggies and oats both times.. @22:30 don't eat processed food from supermarkets which have gluten.. @22:45 One meal a day a very bad idea on a vegan diet. In long run it will cause acidity problems even on a omnivore diet.. Eat three times a day.. But if you eat too much meat then yea fasting is alright. @22:55 Don't eat processed pizza whether it's vegan or not does not matter.. bring discipline in life eat outside food only once a month. Remember that every time you eat processed food vegan or not is gut killer. It all sounds extreme but I see since you are suffering so I think you are ready to incorparte some discipline in your life.. I do have friends who drink coca cola and burger daily and they are alright.. but that's rare... In general people suffer eventually. @23:18 nope.. cook your own food at home @23:40 bloating is very common even among omnivores.. you can see Mr Olympia tucking in their bellies..regarding Fiber your body eventually gets used to fiber in 6 months. @25:00 soy is good.. what you hear on internet is Bro science.. longest living populations japan eat a lot of soy.. estrogen in soy is plant estrogen.. estrogen from milk is the one that we should be concerned about which does cause hormonal problems. @25:30 sir get off processed stuff.. You are eating a lot of them. eat a healthy omnivore diet.. @27:22 Alright let me help you.. eat home cooked chicken 4 times a week.. eat home cooked fish 3 times a week.. eggs 2-3 times a week.. (eggs can cause gut problems in some people).. and eat beans veggies oats.. you will be fine.. your health problems will go away.. but do supplement vitamin D occasionally.. but if you want to give veganism a try again.. Then you must use cronometer. To give you an idea... Breakfast : Oats, berries , 2 table spoon of each - 1. ground - Flax seeds, Sunflower Seeds, hemp seeds, Chia seeds, pumpkin seeds.. after grinding them up I mix it in oats.. plus few walnuts.. That's breakfast.. 2. Lunch - Boiled lentils (boiled in pressure cooker for 1 hour.) 1 brinjal , some mushrooms, whatever else veggie you want to add, and oats.. 3- Dinner same as lunch but I add whole boiled soya chunks.. Supplements - 1. B12 sublingual (under the tongue) 2. Vit D low dose depending on the Sun you get..daily 3. Omega EPA/DHA low dose from algae daily.. 4. iodized salt in your food.. USE CRONOMETER.. plus to be at peak of your body.. good to supplement B complex ONLY ONCE a week.. do more and you suffer.. All the best... If it all seems hard.. yes it is that's what no one tells you... but why I do it?? because it's superb for longevity and health.. and performance.. But if you are suffering from depression I would highly suggest to not push yourself and instead eat a omnivore diet.. get social with people talk with them face to face.. improve other aspects of your life.. all the best buddy..
A vegan diet is really only good for a temporary detox imo. Maybe do it a month or two a year. We're omnivores and function best when we eat a wide variety of foods. There are just too many beneficial nutrients that aren't in plants. You might also want to look into eating for blood type. A lot of us that are of African descent are blood type O. It's said that's the "hunter gatherer" blood type. So it's said people with this blood type thrive on a diet of foods you either hunt, catch, or pick off a tree or bush. So basically meat and fruits.
In may last year i stopped being vegan after 2 years, 10 months later 95% animal based and the best i've ever felt Truth is that most plants are full of defence chemicals like oxalates, lectins and anti nutrients (phytic acid), vegans will say ridiculous things like 'why eat animals when you can get protein directly from the source'. Humans don't have the digestive tracks like cows do, we on the other hand are able to digest meat and absorb the nutrients from there because it's our natural diet Saturated fat and cholesterol is essential for healthy sex hormones and testosterone production and the vegan diet has none of it, not to mention how plant foods have no vitamin A, B6, B12, D, F OR K2 and multiple amino acids such as creatine which is essential for building muscle. High quality animal products that are grass fed, organic etc. will always be the best foods for nourishment and overall health (our brains are made out saturated fat and vegans want you to be scared of it, makes no sense right?) When it comes to the issues with gut health and inflammatory foods continue staying away from gluten, there's no nutrients and minerals in it anyways the body doesn't want it or need it. Pasteurised dairy is also something you should stay away from unless it's high quality (sheep/goats is more digestible than cow)
Hey friend, it sounds like you are on the right path. I have a friend who has been gluten free for many years and it cleared up most of his health problems. Many of the things you mentioned are supposed to be affected by gluten. Itching skin and lesions are some symptoms that improve greatly on a gluten free diet. You should have absolutely no shame in trying to improve your health. I have Lyme disease and understand your journey. Keep doing you and try to enjoy each day in the process. Hugs to Argos. I will be praying for you. Being vegan ,definitely is not for everyone. P1
My man, I miss filming those chef t episodes! Proud of you bro, definitely do what’s best for you and your health. Hopefully we see some gluten-free recipes coming soon. Love you brother
I have so many questions. I may have the same issues. I look forward to seeing your new lifestyle change even though I just discovered you today 😅 I believe in you, and good for you taking care of yourself and your passion is so beautiful
Wheat, along with other grains contain a lot of glyphosates and it is tearing up a lot of people's stomachs. I would switch to rice and potatoes and leave corn, wheat, and maybe even beans off of the table for now. The vegan diet has so many anti nutrients like phytates. Almond milk has phytates and lectins, which bind to minerals in the food you eat thus inhibiting absorption.
@@TyrellFrye when you eat foods high in phytic acid (almonds) , they bind to minerals like zinc, calcium, magnesium, and iron in the intestinal tract before you can absorb them and they are excreted with these minerals attached. This can cause deficiencies. You cannot absorb these minerals once they bind with phytic acid, because human do not naturally possess the enzymes required for breaking them down from food ( phytase is the enzyme)you will just excrete them and if you take almond with certain supplements it will lower the availability depending on the nutrient. Lectins will bind to carbs and other vitamins and are high resistant to human digestion. All of this to say that these foods will rob you of micronutrients rather than replenish them. Seeds do not want to be eaten and these are their defense strategies
If being vegan is too harsh on your health, consider switching to vegetarian or pescatarian. Fish has a lot of protein and omega 3 fatty acids, mix it up with some free-range eggs and you will feel better. My favorite meal in the morning is a piece of integral toast with salmon, avocado and a poached egg, sometimes I put tuna or some other type of fish, but it is the most nutritious breakfast you could have and it’s so easy to make.
Wow man I've tried the same. I couldn't understand what the problem has been all thease years. IfvI want to stay regular I'm gonna have to give up wheat and gluten. I have not much to eat I love meat though
Sending you so much love and light! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯I wish I could give you a big hug and help you get better somehow. The food industry is always changing and not for our benefit, so try to be open and understand that even when you find things that work, it can change because the brand may have changed the way they make it for whatever reason. At the end of the day, trust yourself and just do your best. I trust that you will find your way to good health. 🙏🏾❤️😊
Tyrell, you are dealing with a lot. Please prioritize your health over diet. When you are feeling better, do try a vegan diet again if you desire. I agree with your nutritionist. It sounds like you have a gluten intolerance. This does make maintaining a vegan diet more complex, but not impossible. Here are a couple of tips for trying out a vegan diet again: 1) Supplement at least a couple of times a week with a chewable vitamin B12 supplement (at least 2500 micrograms per week). 2) Additional supplements that are not required but good to take: vegan D3 (at least 2000IU) and DHA/EPA (at least 200 mg) at least a couple of times a week. Also try to include chia or flax every day (good sources of ALA). These omega 3 fats decrease inflammation. 3) protein is your friend. Don’t believe the bro science. Soy is healthy and nutritious. It’s the only plant based complete protein (same as animal products)! Tofu, soy milk, soy protein powder are all tasty. I easily get at least 120g of protein each day focusing on soy products. I hope you are well.
One more thing. You mentioned you had abnormal thyroid levels. Make sure you consume close to the RDA for iodine each day. I use iodized salt and my multivitamin has 100% DV.
SOYA WARNING! Heya ;) Thank you for sharing your experience and hope you find what is right for you. Please note there s no study finding estrogen in soya having an effect on men. There are legit sources online to show this. For further peace of mind there is not even oestrogen in soya milk. On the flip side, Soya has been a staple for some of the oldest and healthiest communities ever. for example, the Okinawans (Japan), are 98% plant-based and live 10 years longer than everyone else. I am incredibly active using all the vegan protein sources and My testosterone blood results are all optimal.
Actually soy have tons of estrogens . And is a goitrogen. My girlfriend was drinking soy milk in the coffee and after a moth her breasts were getting super sensitive, the same with flax ,they both are super estrogenic the beer as well. Leave the stupid studies ,many times they dont show anything ,trust the body .The body has more wisdom than so called '' experts'' who changing their mind and finding knew things every 3 months.
Honestly my guy I think maybe you are jumping off board a bit prematurely and not looking to just alter your plant based diet if you think it has things to be improved upon . Reality Is like you said in the comment section numerous times everyone’s body is different and to add to that everyone’s body is imperfect in different ways. You are aging and going through cycles of change like everyone else it’s just reality, no diet will make you feel perfect all the time and we all will have some issues regardless of diet most will come and go some are genetic and will be harder to overcome if they can be overcome. You could be facing the very same issues regardless of diet. While it is an important factor in health it doesn’t create or solve all problems within the body. Anyway putting foods like eggs that promote inflammation back into your diet in order to heal and prevent inflammation is counterintuitive. Honestly man you said so many things in this video that were factually incorrect. “Protein on a vegan diet comes from carbs” how does this make sense, those are separate macronutrients and plenty of vegan protein sources are relatively low in carbs like pumpkin and hemp seeds. Eating protein with carbs is what basically every human does I.e. ham sandwich or steak and potatoes. “Vegan diets just don’t give you certain nutrients” literally every nutrient the human body needs is either available from plants or the body can synthesize it from building block nutrients from plants(with the exception of vitamin d which is obviously a sunlight issue, and vitamin b12 which is neither plant or animal obtained, those two are a problem just due to the modern lifestyle and should be supplemented by everyone to be safe regardless of diet, I may sure you know this they even supplement the livestock with b12 because they are fed antibiotics which destroy it in the gut, one of the reasons many humans have a lifelong deficiency...they have had multiple cycles of antibiotics.)”Soy isn’t good for men because it has estrogen” first of all it has phytoestrogens which mimic estrogen with the plant but aren’t biologically the same and which have been studied and don’t impact the production of testosterone in the body. They are also found in other plants I do believe. Reality is milk and even meat contain actual mammalian estrogen which does have endocrine disrupting potential and can effect hormone production“I just can’t gain muscle on a vegan diet” this one haha I would buy from other people, but come on man you are a big guy already muscle isn’t a problem for you that’s obvious, we have a limit in terms of how much muscle we will gain naturally you are probably just about there everyone plateaus and even declines and if they don’t make extreme efforts after a certain period of time and age to keep it on. Most of those people who are insanely ripped and able to seeming keep packing on the muscle...one of two things is going on, steroids or they are just genetically freakish. You always seemed like such a great guy and I’m just trying to help. I have watched your typical day diet videos, you weren’t eating a Whole Foods die, and vegan or not processed food isn’t good. bloating also can be caused by too much sodium something to consider all those processed foods can be crazy high in sodium . I just don’t want to see you making decisions because you don’t feel good “which I understand” and are listening to sketchy information (which can be disproven not just disputed) and a nutritionist which may have poor training and or preconceived ideas and biases against plant based diets. I have been vegan for 15 years watched my body change mostly for the better, but of course I have issues like anyone else. We sometimes expect a diet to be a silver bullet cure to all our ailments and potential pitfalls in terms of health. Reality is that just won’t happen. Good luck though my friend.
I appreciate your comment. It’s a lot to respond to but most of the “high protein” foods on a vegan diet comes beans. Beans have about more carbs than protein especially when eating lots of it. Adding rice to the beans makes up for more carbs. I track my macros and on average I’ll finish the day with 275-285 carbs and 90 grams of protein. Those are on days that I eat beyond burgers which gives me around 20-25 grams of protein but also 16-20 grams of fats. Add in bananas, toast, almond milk and that’s even more carbs. I’m not the biggest fan of tofu because of the high amounts of soy. It’s not about me feeling perfect it’s about me feeling better than I am currently. Everything doesn’t work for everyone. I definitely appreciate you watching and commenting. Much love brother
@@TyrellFrye Have you considered carnivore? You can get a lot of information about it by watching videos by Dr. Ken Berry, Black Carnivore, the Diet Doctor, Dr. Anthony Chaffee, Dr. Paul Mason, Dr. David Unwin, Dr. Gary Fettke, Dr. Georgia Ede, Judy Cho, There are also specific videos regarding psoriasis. I am also gluten and lactose intolerant. I had out-of-control blood pressure, elevated blood sugar and severe acid reflux. I had back and neck pain and pain, tendon and joint pain that just wouldn't go away. I know from personal experience that health issues can really depress you and make life seem miserable. After 3 days on carnivore to try to resolve my extreme acid reflux (it was absolutely unbearable) I got out of bed and noticed that I didn't have any back, tendon or joint pain. I hadn't expected that. After 1-2 weeks, my blood pressure (which I couldn't control even though my doctor had increased the dosages of my medication), was under control. As for my blood sugar, I am due to get that measured (HbA1c) at my next appointment, as well as having them measure my resting insulin levels, and doing a C Peptide test. Since I haven't been eating any carbohydrates, I imagine these values will also be lowered to normal ranges. I recognize that though the vegan diet is often better than the typical Western diet or the Standard American Diet (SAD), unfortunately, it cannot provide all of the nutrients that we need as humans. Meat and meat products such as beef, eggs, poultry, fish and seafood can supply all of the nutrients your body needs (carbohydrate is not an essential nutrient). ALL vitamins and nutrients are bioavailable in these foods, including Vitamin C (in chicken liver, clams and salmon roe). And you can have all of the nutrients without having to consume any dairy at all. Other than cutting out carbs and sugar, cutting out seed oils will get rid of those last vestiges of inflammation. Carnivore is not usually for people who want to lose weight, even though that is one of the benefits. People try carnivore to resolve health issues, especially metabolic and auto-immune issues (such as psoriasis), that have been caused by high carbohydrate, often high sugar (including hidden sugars) and seed oil intake. I know it may sound crazy after all of the advice we've been given over decades regarding fat (especially saturated fat) and animal protein, especially in the form of red meat, but I really would ask you to watch some videos, get some information, and seriously consider it. I suggest this only because you have health issues. If that had not been the case, I wouldn't make any suggestions at all regarding your dietary choices. Strict carnivore (which is a great place to start) can at least act as a form of elimination diet. Consuming only beef, water and salt can help you cut out foods that may be causing or contributing to health issues. I hope you'll watch the videos and inform yourself fully about carnivore. Wishing you all the best.
What a major milestone for you to publicly share what you are going through and being transparent about your journey! However, would you believe that most of what you are dealing with may also be linked with a spiritual battle as well ! Keep pushing, God has greater things in store for you .. your destiny is linked with promises, you just have to have the faith to believe and spring fourth in it !
I'm a plant based nutritionist and ultra runner, run over 150 miles most weeks, been vegan 14 years. This is a clssic example of a "nutritionist" who doesn't have a clue wtf they're talking about. To say that you CAN'T get all the nutrients from vegan is a disgrace and they should stop seeing clients until they educate themselves. Eating animal products is linked to low thyroid. How many animal eaters have low thyroid? Millions of them. The only nutrient which you probably weren't getting that you need for thyroid is iodine. I have all my patients consume at least 1 tablespoon a day of dulse flakes.
@@TyrellFrye Of course, even I do the same. Also get rid of any of the processed crap, beyond burgers etc. Anything like that can affect tsh levels as well. I let all my patients have a cheat day once every few weeks depending on their levels where they can include things like the vegan junk foods but 99 percent of the time keep it as unprocessed as possible. Definitely add in the dulse flakes as well they're loaded with iodine. At least 1 tbsp a day.
vegan diets can be low in iodine, unless you eat a lot of potatoes but even then, any type of seaweed has much more iodine and consistent levels. Potatoes appear to vary in their amounts depending on the type and where they're grown.
My scalp is flaky too. I'm going to the dermatologist soon. Hopefully I don't get anything I tried before. Ketoconazole was what they always give but the Selsun Blue Medicated with Menthol Dandruff Shampo clears mines up just returns but not as bad
Shame to hear, man. I'm also 3 years in ;) You may very well have gluten issues, but these can be tested for and avoided if necessary. You do what you have to do. However, the idea of missing nutrients on vegan diets is not true. There are f'sure nutrients to keep an eye on (and the normal b12 and D), but this is the 'well-planned' that is referred to by various health advisors in regard to eating a vegan diet.
Yeah most of my diet consisted of beans and rice so it was very high carbs. Congrats on making it 3 years though! Like I said in the video everyone body is different. Some people thrive on certain diets and others don’t. I appreciate you for watching and leaving feedback ❤️
" the idea of missing nutrients on vegan diets is not true." There are plenty of boxes the Vegan diet does not check without supplementation. Why would you say this?
@@joebenson528 In most cases, the only requirement is for b12 and D. But these are also recommended for the general population, as deficiencies aren’t solely the preserve of vegans. There are nutrients of concern, but normally these can easily be met if enough quantity and variety of plant-foods are eaten.
@@hummushero9428 "Synthesis of those nutrients occurs in the body" The only mineral synthesized in our body is Vitamin D and that is assuming people absorb enough through the sun. And clothes are very good at inhibiting Vit D Synthesis. So unless you are tanning daily (not good for you) you need to get it through your diet as well. The vegan diet does not provide enough Magnesium, Iron, Vitamin B12, Zinc, DHA, EPA, calcium (without the oxalates from Spinach, Kale etc) etc Ignore the dogma and look up the science.
It's always nice to see you back, as well as Argos. You don't have to apologize. I'm so sorry you're going through a rough time time health-wise, I sure hope you find balance soon. Sending love
It's sad man the good people suffer the most. I am so sorry you are dealing with this Tyrell. You are in my thoughts & prayers brother. Bro don't say sorry about not uploading. You come, first man.
Have you tried meditation to heal yourself? I used to have a lot of health problems. Changing your mindset may help it helped me a lot. Hope everything works out for u!
I had eczema growing up and as I got older it got really painful. In my 30’s I went gluten and dairy free. The eczema disappeared and I have never had a breakout since. I can now eat wheat without any skin issues. I do not eat gluten regularly though, I am so afraid of having health issues that are preventable.
I am here from a comment I saw of yours from 3 yrs ago on earthling Ed's channel. A reply to your comment said give it 3yrs. I guess their prediction was right.
Sweetheart, trust you will overcome this. Start by eating beef liver, grassfeed meats like lamb, beef and only use butter , ghee when cooking. Look at Dr. BERG channel. I was vegan and almost 👀 myself .
It’s very difficult when you find something that originally works for you only for it to be temporary. I just found your channel and your story is relevant to mine in a way. Praying you find strength to keep going and not give up on finding a healthy solution. Healthy fats and good locally sourced meats have benefited some people when it comes to gluten intolerance. I’ve found that works best for me. I hope you find what helps for you. Good luck on your journey. Btw. Your dog is beautiful and so is your spirit. Keep pushing and don’t give up.
@@TyrellFrye yea I do too. It could be milk or cheese and it doesn’t sit well with me. I was vegan for 4 years but haven’t been since 2020. I still eat a lot of vegan meals and still choose some vegan options for common stuff like Mayo, yogurt, milk, coffee creamer, etc.
Keep your head up my guy. No matter what happens, keep striving for better and never give up. You’ll get everything you want or need in all aspects of my life one day. Take of yourself and Argos first because we’ll always be here for you bro. Looking forward to future life updates and videos💪
Kudos to you for paying attention to your body & taking the necessary steps to feel better. Continue to see your doctor and nutritionist. You’ll be just fine my friend. 🙏🏽
No need to explain you are definitely in my prayers all I ask is that you never give in or up if it doesn't work try something else just don't ever feel like your in it by yourself cause at the end of the day we all have shyt were going thru
Argos has matured so beautifully! I have my own dog companion now, too! Really interested in what you have to say about veganism in this video and your honesty. You can do it! You are an inspiring person. I have met people who have thrived on gluten-free diets. Take care!
I keep having to search for you, and I have been a subscriber since Argos was a puppy. Im glad I decided to look for you today. Glad you are on the mend, and know what is working for your body. I miss you guys.
Weird that people would comment on your contacts ... wow and I thought wearing glasses was annoying.. that's alot you going through ❤ I'm always cold too hmm.. praying for healing in your whole body!
Yeah I love making eye contacting when I’m talking to someone and it’s the first thing everyone notices because they’re bigger Han normal contacts. Thank you for that! ❤️
Tyrell just to say you are beautiful young man who humble and honest and thank you for story I'm sorry to hear what you went through but not only has this made you stronger but it can also help others who are going through similar situation and I thank you for that but I would say this you do what is best for you because we all have one life that God has blessed us with as well being unique and there is nothing to be forgiven for and to see you so low I just want to give you a 🤗 I praying for God to heal you and extract all the issues you are facing and to give you better health because you deserve to have a fulfilling life with beautiful dog Argos as well as being with your family and friends and I thank God for them for being in your life just take heart just believe in Our Lord and Saviour and you will see the difference in your health and wellbeing God Bless You and keep you and your family in Jesus Name Amen🙏 🙂❤
I’m about halfway through and I also started feeling off. And even though the blood test came back fine, I didn’t feel fine. I felt soo off! Random pains, low energy, lack of sleep, cramping, digestion issues, headaches, like so off. I even started doing IV because I thought I was dehydrated. Needless to say, once I started including some animal products I started feeling so much better! I didn’t want to eat animals. I wanted to be vegan forever. I cried a lot. But I’ve come to terms with it and have decided that it is what it is.
I appreciate your honesty. Your vibration was a lot higher when you were vegan though… Scrolling through all of your old videos. I hope you go vegan again!!!
Good to hear. There's lots of misinformation about food, we definitely need meat. B12 is not the only nutrient that is completely lacking in plants. Be glad this happened sooner rather than later.
I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of the positive messages and words of encouragement. It makes a huge difference seeing the amount of people that care about me and my well-being. I will not give up! This is just another obstacle in the way. I love you all ❤️
Your the best thanks Your so honest
I feel you on the frustration 😒 I have changed my diet several times to be tons healthier. I am diagnosed with fibromyalgia arthritis and neuropathy along with intestinal issues. But I still struggle and it's very hard ... depressing but you need to do what's right for your body your health which includes your mental health. You got this keep your head up. God is with us every step of the way
Amen to that 🙏🏾❤️
Your story really hit home bro. I have similar issues as you (keratoconus, scalp problems) and I tried so many different things. I never thought I might be allergic to gluten and wheat until now so that's something I'm going to keep an eye on now. I went vegan 9 months ago and for the most part its been great but I also workout 5-6 times a week and I noticed over the past few months im struggling to add muscle or even maintain what I already have since I went vegan. I'm going to slowly add in a couple animal products (grilled chicken, eggs) a few times a week to see if it makes a difference. Prayers up bro you aren't alone.
Wow bro it’s crazy how you have the same problems bro. I’m going to continue things out until I find something!
A few things. It sounds like you've had health problems throughout your life, even well before you were plant-based. Your situation reminds me "Vegetable Police", who has jumped from diet to diet, each time the new diet being "the right one", until 6-12 months later when he would change again due to health problems once again rising to the surface. The key point with him, and probably you, is that there's an underlying health condition going on that can be exacerbated by any diet, if it has certain triggers in it. In addition, you could have SIBO, or some other GI bacterial issues, etc., that have been triggered by certain specific foods, not just by being plant-based in general. Veganism is not a diet, but a philosophy, btw. As for your nutritionist/dietitian, there are many out there who really don't know what they're talking about, and have no clue on plant-based diets. She clearly is one of them. You need a new nutritionist. The fact that she told you to eat butter, and that you NEED animal products shows that she is grossly misinformed. Telling you to eat butter is just flat-out dangerous, long-term. If you're serious about "veganism", you should find a plant-based nutritionist to help you through your ways. Where there's a will, there's a way, and it can be done through a plant-based diet. You have to eat whole-food plant-based and nothing or almost zero processed things, not Moriningstar burgers, etc. You have to really eat 100% WFPB. And you can be plant-based and be gluten-free, as that might be one of your triggers. You kept talking about gluten and conflating it with plant-based, but they are not one and the same. (And it's easy to get more than 90 grams of protein btw. There are many plant-based athletes killin' it out there). I am commenting not with anger towards you, it just seems that you're way of thinking this through is quite flawed. Stay away from animal products, being "grass-fed" doesn't make them magical or uber-healthy, there's not a scientific consensus on that, only blogger BS. Stay away from dairy and try avoiding gluten in your case. You should follow "Nutrition Made Simple" on RUclips, he's quite on point on nutrition, more so than your nutritionist. And find a new nutritionist....peace.....
You’re clearly biased in this case and that’s okay. Please don’t try to discredit others work and you have no idea who they are and what they stand for. I appreciate you for watching though. Have a great day ❤️
Typical vegan cult nonsense and hypocrisy
Don't worry you will get better. I was vegetarian vegan and pescotarian off and on for over 25 years. It was when I went vegan this last time I realized how deficient I was. I now eat meat. I had the most horrible hive breakouts , its been 2 years since I've been eating meat and I have no breakouts anymore. My body became so sensitive to anything I ate. Literally everytime I ate I had a horrible break out. My body gained muscle without me exercising once I changed my diet. You should watch the channel vegan deterioration she has a lot of vegan stories from different peoples perspective also groatis and sveirge channel. I may have spelled the last one wrong. You are not alone. I hope you heal 🙏 soon.
Thank you for that!
@@TyrellFrye no problem. Happy healing to you.
Hey handsome, please don’t let this bring you down. You’ve been to the doctors and you have no MAJOR problems. Keep working on your nutrition, you’ll get over it ! I NEVER went to a doctor until I got old. Had a phone call a month ago from my primary dr. Possibility I had cancer. Got results of biopsy today…no cancer!! You will beat this because you care about your body. I think the stress and depression is what is making you feel fatigued. Think positively ! You can do it ! There are a lot of people who care about you ! ❤️
And you beat me with the Vitamin D thing !! My number was 18. Had no idea I had low D levels ! Today it’s ok.
Thank you Cheryl! That means so much. Yes now I’m on high quality supplements, oils and vitamins!
Tyrell, I am praying for your perseverance. I understand 100%. I tried a vegan diet for a while but I lost too much weight, relied on carbs too much, and it zapped my energy. I think a vegan diet has many amazing benefits, but our biome needs certain things. I would suggest simply making sure you still get a good amount of veggies, fruits, and legumes. Take it one day at a time. 😊 hello, Argos!
Thank you Ginia! I felt good when I first switched honestly but ultimately everyone body is different. And of course. Thank you for watching and commenting 🙏🏾❤️
vegans are running running purly on sugar
@@darrenmcintosh8471 it can turn into a lot of sugar real fast! All the carbs, fruits, etc.
I went vegan for 1 yr in 2018-2019 too, and It was easy since i did not like meat much that time. But honestly my mental health was badly affected although my physical was good. I felt very cold since my body needed fats lol. Cant say much of what happened, but I feel great now.... God bless you!!❤
PS: love the dog at 17:20 🤣🤣
Hey thank you so much for watching and commenting. I’m feeling much better now but have ways to go!
What's up Tyrell!! Started watching your video with Argos because my family and I are thinking of getting a lab pit mix. Cool video and funny as hell when you dressed him up for his birthday and Halloween together. Saw this video and wanted to help out. You seem like a mad cool dude and hate to see bad things happen to good people. Yes definitely avoid wheat at all costs. Gluten causes alot of inflammation in the body. I hear ya about Gardein. Almost everything has wheat or soy. For that it has to be the veggie or black bean burgers. Make sure to always check the labels. Stop dairy altogether. Try coconut milk, oatmilk, almond if you don't have an allergy towards it. Chobani makes an awesome plant based milk and coffee creamer which is delicious. Try to incorporate a prebiotic and probiotic to cleanse and feed your gut with good bacteria. Try kimchi, sauerkraut, yogurt but make sure it has no dairy. Brands like So Delicious are good for that. Going vegan is good but again tons of wheat and people don't realize that. Eat your veggies dude. Broccoli, kale, brussel sprouts all the good green cruciferous ones. I hope this helps out a little bit. It's not a diet, your making a lifestyle change for the better. Try and shop at Whole Foods if there is one near you. I also shop at Sprouts. I'm in Charlotte. A more natural store, organic non GMO's. Hope you feel better. Argos and the people in your life need ya. Peace out brother.
Thank you so much for this comment! It means a lot to me 🙏🏾❤️
@@TyrellFrye No problem. Glad to help out and hope the best for you. We got a beautiful 7 week old lab pit mix. She is adorable. My family and I couldn't be happier. Lots of Joy!!!
@@Scottyguns hey, I got a 3 month old lap pit also. I would like to see a pic of your pup and see how it's doing.
You did what was Right for your Health, Peoples body are not the same when Eating a Vegan Diet,
Yeah for sure. Thank you for watching!
Hey.. thanks for sharing your story. I listened to it properly. To let you know I have failed on a vegan diet 2 times before becoming successful the third time..
It's a very hard diet but also when you do get it right it's the optimal diet to prevent heart disease and cancer. I feel at the peak of my calisthenics sessions.
If you still want to go back to vegan diet I can help you..
@11:50 you said about Vitamin D.. That's right natural sources of vitamin D is fish, eggs and liver. Either eat them more regularly or take a supplement. Anyway Americans are deficient in vitamin D.. but anyway I am here to help whether you choose vegan diet or omnivore diet..
@12:15 You said which was probably connected to depression. Depression is extremely complex subject. You can get help with r/depression on reddit but my opinion would be to spend less time on screen and RUclips or in your house and go out interact with people more face to face.
@12:30 Stomach hurts because we consume fake meat and refined bread and products. Every food that does not naturally exist in nature is a GUT KILLER. sooner or later you develop IBS. My opinion here would be to eat natural, whether you choose meat or plants does not matter but eat natural whole cooked foods at home.
@12:45 Meat produces a lot of heat in the body. Since you stopped eating it you were more cold. This is talked in Ayurveda. If you want to feel warm you will need to eat nuts and mangoes for heat in the body. There is complex reaction behind all this. But Eating mangoes in excess will cause stomach problems again because gut does not tolerate high fructose in diet which comes in fruit.
@13:20 Doctor says it on the basis of range. It's always advisable to look at the blood test yourself just to check whether you are on the lower end of normal range or too high end in the normal range. For example Vit D and B12 people don't feel alright even in the normal range but towards the lower end of 'normal'.
@13:50 Taking multivitamins regularly without any reason can cause toxicity in blood creating numerous problems. It's only B12, low dose of Vit and omega 3(EPA,DHA) from algae capsules you are supposed to take. But I will tell you more about it since vegan diet is very hard.
@17:10 Yes, wheat was introduced in the human diet very recently in the industrial era. I also avoid dairy and gluten products. I go for oats.
@18:00 Yes, again a random vegan does not tell you that you also will have thyroid problems unless you eat sea weed regularly, but then again you can overdose. So I go for iodized salt.. I add salt in my food so I get enough iodine from diet through iodized salt. Very common among vegetarian population to use iodized salt in their food.
@18:30 Since I see you are dealing with stress and pressure, don't go on a vegan diet. Eat a balanced omnivore diet with more plants in it. You did water fasting on a vegan diet, definitely not needed since it's already high in antioxidants.. Fasting is awesome for people who eat lot of meat and they find health improvements through it.. But on a whole food vegan diet fasting will cause problems because of not eating enough, and since it's already high in antioxidants.
@18:50 Totally agreed... vegan diet is extremely hard for people who don't know what they are doing.. I failed 2 times before getting it right the third time... You will need to track your nutrition on cronometer and you will see that daily you are not hitting your requirements.. don't get me wrong.. I still learnt all of it and now I find it easy because now I know what I need to eat in order to get everything without stuffing too much food.
@19:40 exactly.. natural sources over supplements.. but you need to see what price your body pays.. it's complex.. despite of failing two times I am still on a vegan diet because my calisthenics performance are through the roof on it, plus I don't want to trigger cancer or heart disease on a omnivore diet..but no need to be afraid. You don't need to live a optimal life.. Just eat a balanced omnivore diet.. mediterranean style..learn the patterns from the blue zones on how much meat to eat without overdosing.
@20:00 on a vegan diet if you need 100+ gms of protein per day, you will need to eat boiled lentils two times a day.. and nope you can't eat it all at one meal.. you need to eat three times a day.. breakfast oats, lunch and dinner being lentils, veggies and oats both times..
@22:30 don't eat processed food from supermarkets which have gluten..
@22:45 One meal a day a very bad idea on a vegan diet. In long run it will cause acidity problems even on a omnivore diet.. Eat three times a day.. But if you eat too much meat then yea fasting is alright.
@22:55 Don't eat processed pizza whether it's vegan or not does not matter.. bring discipline in life eat outside food only once a month. Remember that every time you eat processed food vegan or not is gut killer. It all sounds extreme but I see since you are suffering so I think you are ready to incorparte some discipline in your life.. I do have friends who drink coca cola and burger daily and they are alright.. but that's rare... In general people suffer eventually.
@23:18 nope.. cook your own food at home
@23:40 bloating is very common even among omnivores.. you can see Mr Olympia tucking in their bellies..regarding Fiber your body eventually gets used to fiber in 6 months.
@25:00 soy is good.. what you hear on internet is Bro science.. longest living populations japan eat a lot of soy.. estrogen in soy is plant estrogen.. estrogen from milk is the one that we should be concerned about which does cause hormonal problems.
@25:30 sir get off processed stuff.. You are eating a lot of them. eat a healthy omnivore diet..
@27:22 Alright let me help you.. eat home cooked chicken 4 times a week.. eat home cooked fish 3 times a week.. eggs 2-3 times a week.. (eggs can cause gut problems in some people).. and eat beans veggies oats.. you will be fine.. your health problems will go away.. but do supplement vitamin D occasionally..
but if you want to give veganism a try again.. Then you must use cronometer. To give you an idea... Breakfast : Oats, berries , 2 table spoon of each -
1. ground - Flax seeds, Sunflower Seeds, hemp seeds, Chia seeds, pumpkin seeds.. after grinding them up I mix it in oats..
plus few walnuts.. That's breakfast..
2. Lunch - Boiled lentils (boiled in pressure cooker for 1 hour.) 1 brinjal , some mushrooms, whatever else veggie you want to add, and oats..
3- Dinner same as lunch but I add whole boiled soya chunks..
Supplements - 1. B12 sublingual (under the tongue)
2. Vit D low dose depending on the Sun you get..daily
3. Omega EPA/DHA low dose from algae daily..
4. iodized salt in your food..
USE CRONOMETER.. plus to be at peak of your body.. good to supplement B complex ONLY ONCE a week.. do more and you suffer..
All the best... If it all seems hard.. yes it is that's what no one tells you... but why I do it?? because it's superb for longevity and health.. and performance.. But if you are suffering from depression I would highly suggest to not push yourself and instead eat a omnivore diet.. get social with people talk with them face to face.. improve other aspects of your life..
all the best buddy..
Thank you for all of the feedback I definitely appreciate it!!
A vegan diet is really only good for a temporary detox imo. Maybe do it a month or two a year. We're omnivores and function best when we eat a wide variety of foods. There are just too many beneficial nutrients that aren't in plants. You might also want to look into eating for blood type. A lot of us that are of African descent are blood type O. It's said that's the "hunter gatherer" blood type. So it's said people with this blood type thrive on a diet of foods you either hunt, catch, or pick off a tree or bush. So basically meat and fruits.
veganism isn't for everyone, one size doesn't fit all. We must listen to our bodies instead of the narratives around food!
100%!!
I PRAY ALL IS WELL FROM HERE ON OUT !💝💝
Thank you so much! 🙏🏾
In may last year i stopped being vegan after 2 years, 10 months later 95% animal based and the best i've ever felt
Truth is that most plants are full of defence chemicals like oxalates, lectins and anti nutrients (phytic acid), vegans will say ridiculous things like 'why eat animals when you can get protein directly from the source'. Humans don't have the digestive tracks like cows do, we on the other hand are able to digest meat and absorb the nutrients from there because it's our natural diet
Saturated fat and cholesterol is essential for healthy sex hormones and testosterone production and the vegan diet has none of it, not to mention how plant foods have no vitamin A, B6, B12, D, F OR K2 and multiple amino acids such as creatine which is essential for building muscle. High quality animal products that are grass fed, organic etc. will always be the best foods for nourishment and overall health (our brains are made out saturated fat and vegans want you to be scared of it, makes no sense right?)
When it comes to the issues with gut health and inflammatory foods continue staying away from gluten, there's no nutrients and minerals in it anyways the body doesn't want it or need it. Pasteurised dairy is also something you should stay away from unless it's high quality (sheep/goats is more digestible than cow)
Thank you for watching and commenting! What made you want to switch? Did you start feeling ill?
Hey friend, it sounds like you are on the right path. I have a friend who has been gluten free for many years and it cleared up most of his health problems. Many of the things you mentioned are supposed to be affected by gluten.
Itching skin and lesions are some symptoms that improve greatly on a gluten free diet.
You should have absolutely no shame in trying to improve your health.
I have Lyme disease and understand your journey.
Keep doing you and try to enjoy each day in the process.
Hugs to Argos. I will be praying for you. Being vegan ,definitely is not for everyone.

Thank you so much for sharing and commenting! I definitely think there’s a connection with Gluten and wheat with my body
My man, I miss filming those chef t episodes! Proud of you bro, definitely do what’s best for you and your health. Hopefully we see some gluten-free recipes coming soon. Love you brother
Love you bro. It’s been amazing filming all of those videos! I definitely miss it. Fun times man ❤️
Check out brother Yahki Awakened his teachings might help you
Thank you!
I have so many questions. I may have the same issues. I look forward to seeing your new lifestyle change even though I just discovered you today 😅 I believe in you, and good for you taking care of yourself and your passion is so beautiful
Thank you so much ❤️
Wheat, along with other grains contain a lot of glyphosates and it is tearing up a lot of people's stomachs. I would switch to rice and potatoes and leave corn, wheat, and maybe even beans off of the table for now. The vegan diet has so many anti nutrients like phytates. Almond milk has phytates and lectins, which bind to minerals in the food you eat thus inhibiting absorption.
Can you explain that almond milk a little bit more?
@@TyrellFrye when you eat foods high in phytic acid (almonds) , they bind to minerals like zinc, calcium, magnesium, and iron in the intestinal tract before you can absorb them and they are excreted with these minerals attached. This can cause deficiencies. You cannot absorb these minerals once they bind with phytic acid, because human do not naturally possess the enzymes required for breaking them down from food ( phytase is the enzyme)you will just excrete them and if you take almond with certain supplements it will lower the availability depending on the nutrient.
Lectins will bind to carbs and other vitamins and are high resistant to human digestion.
All of this to say that these foods will rob you of micronutrients rather than replenish them. Seeds do not want to be eaten and these are their defense strategies
If being vegan is too harsh on your health, consider switching to vegetarian or pescatarian. Fish has a lot of protein and omega 3 fatty acids, mix it up with some free-range eggs and you will feel better. My favorite meal in the morning is a piece of integral toast with salmon, avocado and a poached egg, sometimes I put tuna or some other type of fish, but it is the most nutritious breakfast you could have and it’s so easy to make.
Thank you for the advice!
Wow man I've tried the same. I couldn't understand what the problem has been all thease years. IfvI want to stay regular I'm gonna have to give up wheat and gluten. I have not much to eat I love meat though
It’s definitely a journey!
All that processed vegan meat is awful....its literally fried gluten. I was eating a lot of it and it raised my cholesterol so much.
Yeah seriously!
Sending you so much love and light! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯I wish I could give you a big hug and help you get better somehow. The food industry is always changing and not for our benefit, so try to be open and understand that even when you find things that work, it can change because the brand may have changed the way they make it for whatever reason. At the end of the day, trust yourself and just do your best. I trust that you will find your way to good health. 🙏🏾❤️😊
100%. I really appreciate the positive message. It truly means a lot 🙏🏾❤️
your health is never gonna be picture perfect homie, no diet will make you that way. do what works for you and dont feel bad about it
Thank you for that 🙏🏾
Love you ❤️
Love you too cuz! 🤞🏾❤️
Take vitamin D3 +K2 Carlson brand
That’s actually the brand my nutritionist recommended lol
Can I get a shout out
I truly thank you for sharing some of your journey, it is truly inspiring
Thank you brother for that 🙏🏾
Tyrell, you are dealing with a lot. Please prioritize your health over diet. When you are feeling better, do try a vegan diet again if you desire. I agree with your nutritionist. It sounds like you have a gluten intolerance. This does make maintaining a vegan diet more complex, but not impossible. Here are a couple of tips for trying out a vegan diet again:
1) Supplement at least a couple of times a week with a chewable vitamin B12 supplement (at least 2500 micrograms per week).
2) Additional supplements that are not required but good to take: vegan D3 (at least 2000IU) and DHA/EPA (at least 200 mg) at least a couple of times a week. Also try to include chia or flax every day (good sources of ALA). These omega 3 fats decrease inflammation.
3) protein is your friend. Don’t believe the bro science. Soy is healthy and nutritious. It’s the only plant based complete protein (same as animal products)! Tofu, soy milk, soy protein powder are all tasty. I easily get at least 120g of protein each day focusing on soy products.
I hope you are well.
One more thing. You mentioned you had abnormal thyroid levels. Make sure you consume close to the RDA for iodine each day. I use iodized salt and my multivitamin has 100% DV.
Thank you so much!
You got this 💕, I love how you’re being open with us
Thank you! That’s all I can do 🙏🏾❤️
SOYA WARNING! Heya ;) Thank you for sharing your experience and hope you find what is right for you. Please note there s no study finding estrogen in soya having an effect on men. There are legit sources online to show this. For further peace of mind there is not even oestrogen in soya milk. On the flip side, Soya has been a staple for some of the oldest and healthiest communities ever. for example, the Okinawans (Japan), are 98% plant-based and live 10 years longer than everyone else. I am incredibly active using all the vegan protein sources and My testosterone blood results are all optimal.
Thank you for sharing! Everyone is different and I’m glad you’re able to thrive on this diet!
Actually soy have tons of estrogens . And is a goitrogen. My girlfriend was drinking soy milk in the coffee and after a moth her breasts were getting super sensitive, the same with flax ,they both are super estrogenic the beer as well. Leave the stupid studies ,many times they dont show anything ,trust the body .The body has more wisdom than so called '' experts'' who changing their mind and finding knew things every 3 months.
Honestly my guy I think maybe you are jumping off board a bit prematurely and not looking to just alter your plant based diet if you think it has things to be improved upon . Reality Is like you said in the comment section numerous times everyone’s body is different and to add to that everyone’s body is imperfect in different ways. You are aging and going through cycles of change like everyone else it’s just reality, no diet will make you feel perfect all the time and we all will have some issues regardless of diet most will come and go some are genetic and will be harder to overcome if they can be overcome. You could be facing the very same issues regardless of diet. While it is an important factor in health it doesn’t create or solve all problems within the body. Anyway putting foods like eggs that promote inflammation back into your diet in order to heal and prevent inflammation is counterintuitive.
Honestly man you said so many things in this video that were factually incorrect. “Protein on a vegan diet comes from carbs” how does this make sense, those are separate macronutrients and plenty of vegan protein sources are relatively low in carbs like pumpkin and hemp seeds. Eating protein with carbs is what basically every human does I.e. ham sandwich or steak and potatoes. “Vegan diets just don’t give you certain nutrients” literally every nutrient the human body needs is either available from plants or the body can synthesize it from building block nutrients from plants(with the exception of vitamin d which is obviously a sunlight issue, and vitamin b12 which is neither plant or animal obtained, those two are a problem just due to the modern lifestyle and should be supplemented by everyone to be safe regardless of diet, I may sure you know this they even supplement the livestock with b12 because they are fed antibiotics which destroy it in the gut, one of the reasons many humans have a lifelong deficiency...they have had multiple cycles of antibiotics.)”Soy isn’t good for men because it has estrogen” first of all it has phytoestrogens which mimic estrogen with the plant but aren’t biologically the same and which have been studied and don’t impact the production of testosterone in the body. They are also found in other plants I do believe. Reality is milk and even meat contain actual mammalian estrogen which does have endocrine disrupting potential and can effect hormone production“I just can’t gain muscle on a vegan diet” this one haha I would buy from other people, but come on man you are a big guy already muscle isn’t a problem for you that’s obvious, we have a limit in terms of how much muscle we will gain naturally you are probably just about there everyone plateaus and even declines and if they don’t make extreme efforts after a certain period of time and age to keep it on. Most of those people who are insanely ripped and able to seeming keep packing on the muscle...one of two things is going on, steroids or they are just genetically freakish.
You always seemed like such a great guy and I’m just trying to help. I have watched your typical day diet videos, you weren’t eating a Whole Foods die, and vegan or not processed food isn’t good. bloating also can be caused by too much sodium something to consider all those processed foods can be crazy high in sodium . I just don’t want to see you making decisions because you don’t feel good “which I understand” and are listening to sketchy information (which can be disproven not just disputed) and a nutritionist which may have poor training and or preconceived ideas and biases against plant based diets. I have been vegan for 15 years watched my body change mostly for the better, but of course I have issues like anyone else. We sometimes expect a diet to be a silver bullet cure to all our ailments and potential pitfalls in terms of health. Reality is that just won’t happen. Good luck though my friend.
I appreciate your comment. It’s a lot to respond to but most of the “high protein” foods on a vegan diet comes beans. Beans have about more carbs than protein especially when eating lots of it. Adding rice to the beans makes up for more carbs. I track my macros and on average I’ll finish the day with 275-285 carbs and 90 grams of protein. Those are on days that I eat beyond burgers which gives me around 20-25 grams of protein but also 16-20 grams of fats. Add in bananas, toast, almond milk and that’s even more carbs. I’m not the biggest fan of tofu because of the high amounts of soy.
It’s not about me feeling perfect it’s about me feeling better than I am currently. Everything doesn’t work for everyone. I definitely appreciate you watching and commenting. Much love brother
@@TyrellFrye Have you considered carnivore? You can get a lot of information about it by watching videos by Dr. Ken Berry, Black Carnivore, the Diet Doctor, Dr. Anthony Chaffee, Dr. Paul Mason, Dr. David Unwin, Dr. Gary Fettke, Dr. Georgia Ede, Judy Cho, There are also specific videos regarding psoriasis.
I am also gluten and lactose intolerant. I had out-of-control blood pressure, elevated blood sugar and severe acid reflux. I had back and neck pain and pain, tendon and joint pain that just wouldn't go away. I know from personal experience that health issues can really depress you and make life seem miserable. After 3 days on carnivore to try to resolve my extreme acid reflux (it was absolutely unbearable) I got out of bed and noticed that I didn't have any back, tendon or joint pain. I hadn't expected that. After 1-2 weeks, my blood pressure (which I couldn't control even though my doctor had increased the dosages of my medication), was under control. As for my blood sugar, I am due to get that measured (HbA1c) at my next appointment, as well as having them measure my resting insulin levels, and doing a C Peptide test. Since I haven't been eating any carbohydrates, I imagine these values will also be lowered to normal ranges.
I recognize that though the vegan diet is often better than the typical Western diet or the Standard American Diet (SAD), unfortunately, it cannot provide all of the nutrients that we need as humans.
Meat and meat products such as beef, eggs, poultry, fish and seafood can supply all of the nutrients your body needs (carbohydrate is not an essential nutrient). ALL vitamins and nutrients are bioavailable in these foods, including Vitamin C (in chicken liver, clams and salmon roe). And you can have all of the nutrients without having to consume any dairy at all.
Other than cutting out carbs and sugar, cutting out seed oils will get rid of those last vestiges of inflammation.
Carnivore is not usually for people who want to lose weight, even though that is one of the benefits. People try carnivore to resolve health issues, especially metabolic and auto-immune issues (such as psoriasis), that have been caused by high carbohydrate, often high sugar (including hidden sugars) and seed oil intake. I know it may sound crazy after all of the advice we've been given over decades regarding fat (especially saturated fat) and animal protein, especially in the form of red meat, but I really would ask you to watch some videos, get some information, and seriously consider it. I suggest this only because you have health issues. If that had not been the case, I wouldn't make any suggestions at all regarding your dietary choices.
Strict carnivore (which is a great place to start) can at least act as a form of elimination diet. Consuming only beef, water and salt can help you cut out foods that may be causing or contributing to health issues.
I hope you'll watch the videos and inform yourself fully about carnivore.
Wishing you all the best.
Hey Ex Vegan here ! Check Thyriod, try eating fermented seaweed salad it's rich in Iodine.
Where do you get that?
@@TyrellFrye Mom's Grocery store.
What a major milestone for you to publicly share what you are going through and being transparent about your journey! However, would you believe that most of what you are dealing with may also be linked with a spiritual battle as well ! Keep pushing, God has greater things in store for you .. your destiny is linked with promises, you just have to have the faith to believe and spring fourth in it !
Thank you so much for that! 🙏🏾❤️
You’re welcome and may God continue to bless you on your journey!
I don't think it was becoming vegan I think it is other stuff but you should try seamoss gel. Seamoss gel and tumeric teas and tumeric supplements.
Yes TYRELL we all go thu health issues at lease ur doing sum10 about it were always rooting for u many blessings to u &argos an ur family 🤎🤎✌🏾✌🏾🥰🥰
Much love! ❤️❤️
I'm a plant based nutritionist and ultra runner, run over 150 miles most weeks, been vegan 14 years. This is a clssic example of a "nutritionist" who doesn't have a clue wtf they're talking about. To say that you CAN'T get all the nutrients from vegan is a disgrace and they should stop seeing clients until they educate themselves. Eating animal products is linked to low thyroid. How many animal eaters have low thyroid? Millions of them. The only nutrient which you probably weren't getting that you need for thyroid is iodine. I have all my patients consume at least 1 tablespoon a day of dulse flakes.
Thank you for your insight. I’m just trying everything until I find the best solution for me. Still searching! 🙏🏾
@@TyrellFrye Of course, even I do the same. Also get rid of any of the processed crap, beyond burgers etc. Anything like that can affect tsh levels as well. I let all my patients have a cheat day once every few weeks depending on their levels where they can include things like the vegan junk foods but 99 percent of the time keep it as unprocessed as possible. Definitely add in the dulse flakes as well they're loaded with iodine. At least 1 tbsp a day.
vegan diets can be low in iodine, unless you eat a lot of potatoes but even then, any type of seaweed has much more iodine and consistent levels. Potatoes appear to vary in their amounts depending on the type and where they're grown.
can't you be a gluten free vegan? I agree - you just have to sort through it - health is #1
My scalp is flaky too. I'm going to the dermatologist soon. Hopefully I don't get anything I tried before. Ketoconazole was what they always give but the Selsun Blue Medicated with Menthol Dandruff Shampo clears mines up just returns but not as bad
Best Substitute teacher ♥♥♥♥
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Shame to hear, man. I'm also 3 years in ;)
You may very well have gluten issues, but these can be tested for and avoided if necessary.
You do what you have to do. However, the idea of missing nutrients on vegan diets is not true. There are f'sure nutrients to keep an eye on (and the normal b12 and D), but this is the 'well-planned' that is referred to by various health advisors in regard to eating a vegan diet.
Yeah most of my diet consisted of beans and rice so it was very high carbs. Congrats on making it 3 years though! Like I said in the video everyone body is different. Some people thrive on certain diets and others don’t. I appreciate you for watching and leaving feedback ❤️
" the idea of missing nutrients on vegan diets is not true."
There are plenty of boxes the Vegan diet does not check without supplementation. Why would you say this?
@@joebenson528 In most cases, the only requirement is for b12 and D. But these are also recommended for the general population, as deficiencies aren’t solely the preserve of vegans. There are nutrients of concern, but normally these can easily be met if enough quantity and variety of plant-foods are eaten.
@@joebenson528 and those boxes are? You aren’t realizing that synthesis of those nutrients occurs within the body.
@@hummushero9428
"Synthesis of those nutrients occurs in the body"
The only mineral synthesized in our body is Vitamin D and that is assuming people absorb enough through the sun. And clothes are very good at inhibiting Vit D Synthesis. So unless you are tanning daily (not good for you) you need to get it through your diet as well.
The vegan diet does not provide enough Magnesium, Iron, Vitamin B12, Zinc, DHA, EPA, calcium (without the oxalates from Spinach, Kale etc) etc
Ignore the dogma and look up the science.
Awww 🥰 Tyrell u made my day I get too see my baby Argos I miss him soo much I miss seeing u too Argos getting big 🥰
He’s grown so well 😊
Regular milk is nasty. It tears my stomach up. I prefer almond
It's always nice to see you back, as well as Argos. You don't have to apologize. I'm so sorry you're going through a rough time time health-wise, I sure hope you find balance soon.
Sending love
Thank you for the positivity and understanding ❤️
It's sad man the good people suffer the most. I am so sorry you are dealing with this Tyrell. You are in my thoughts & prayers brother. Bro don't say sorry about not uploading. You come, first man.
Thank you for that! You’ve been constantly supporting me and it means so much 🙏🏾❤️
@@TyrellFrye Always man. That's why you are my song out to my videos lol. Keep grinding man.
Hey!
Heyyy!
Have you tried meditation to heal yourself? I used to have a lot of health problems. Changing your mindset may help it helped me a lot. Hope everything works out for u!
I haven’t used meditation for healing but I’ve used it for peace of mind. I’m getting more into it and Yoga!
I had eczema growing up and as I got older it got really painful. In my 30’s I went gluten and dairy free. The eczema disappeared and I have never had a breakout since. I can now eat wheat without any skin issues. I do not eat gluten regularly though, I am so afraid of having health issues that are preventable.
That's really interesting. Thank you for sharing
I was getting sick and every food I had in the house was repulsive and nauseating......I went keto/carnivore....great move
How’s that working for you now?
I am here from a comment I saw of yours from 3 yrs ago on earthling Ed's channel. A reply to your comment said give it 3yrs. I guess their prediction was right.
Health wise I guess so. I didn’t stop going vegan because I wanted to
Give it a year, work out and eat healthy. Take your probiotics and supplements and you’ll be surprised at what you can accomplish! Proud of you!
Thank you for that ❤️❤️
Is Argo still vegan?
Hey Tyrell, whenever you have time I recomend to check out Yahki Awakened's channel on RUclips, it might help.
Thank you so much!!
Sweetheart, trust you will overcome this. Start by eating beef liver, grassfeed meats like lamb, beef and only use butter , ghee when cooking. Look at Dr. BERG channel. I was vegan and almost 👀 myself .
That’s wild she also recommended me to use butter when cooking lol
that's a heart attack diet in the long run
@@veganfortheanimals6994 my guy you probably eat beyond meat lathered in seeds oils please lmao
It’s very difficult when you find something that originally works for you only for it to be temporary. I just found your channel and your story is relevant to mine in a way.
Praying you find strength to keep going and not give up on finding a healthy solution. Healthy fats and good locally sourced meats have benefited some people when it comes to gluten intolerance. I’ve found that works best for me. I hope you find what helps for you.
Good luck on your journey. Btw. Your dog is beautiful and so is your spirit. Keep pushing and don’t give up.
Thank you so much!
Your fur BABY IS A BEAUTIFUL CHOCOLATE PIT WOW YOUR TAKING GREAT CARE OF HIM!!😍😘💝💝🐾🐾🐾🐾🌼🌞🌼🌞
Thank you so much Priscilla!
Missed you and Argo. Very much, so glad you’re back!
❤️❤️
While milk has lactulose in it THTS wht make ur stomach hurt 2% is better without lactulose I use it.
I think I just have a bad reaction to dairy in general tbh
@@TyrellFrye yea I do too. It could be milk or cheese and it doesn’t sit well with me. I was vegan for 4 years but haven’t been since 2020. I still eat a lot of vegan meals and still choose some vegan options for common stuff like Mayo, yogurt, milk, coffee creamer, etc.
@@melissabereading yeah a lot of non dairy stuff is vegan which is probably what I’ll be doing!
Keep your head up my guy. No matter what happens, keep striving for better and never give up. You’ll get everything you want or need in all aspects of my life one day. Take of yourself and Argos first because we’ll always be here for you bro. Looking forward to future life updates and videos💪
My guy Wizard! Thank you bro fr. You’ve been amazing support ❤️✊🏾
Good luck on your journey in figuring out what works for you as far as food choices go.Wish nothing but the best for you!Argos is looking good!
Thank you so much! 🙏🏾❤️
Kudos to you for paying attention to your body & taking the necessary steps to feel better. Continue to see your doctor and nutritionist. You’ll be just fine my friend. 🙏🏽
Thank you for that ❤️
Just subscribed hopping to see your recovery update

Thank you so much! 🙏🏾
No need to explain you are definitely in my prayers all I ask is that you never give in or up if it doesn't work try something else just don't ever feel like your in it by yourself cause at the end of the day we all have shyt were going thru
I appreciate that! I won’t stop 🙏🏾❤️

Argos has matured so beautifully! I have my own dog companion now, too! Really interested in what you have to say about veganism in this video and your honesty. You can do it! You are an inspiring person. I have met people who have thrived on gluten-free diets. Take care!
Thank you! 🙏🏾
I keep having to search for you, and I have been a subscriber since Argos was a puppy. Im glad I decided to look for you today. Glad you are on the mend, and know what is working for your body. I miss you guys.

Hey Tyrell & Argos! ❤️🙏🏽
Helllloooooo 😊😊
With you through all your journeys man 🩸
Aye that’s love bro fr 🤞🏾
Come back to RUclips
We backkkk
I’m about halfway through and I also started feeling off. And even though the blood test came back fine, I didn’t feel fine. I felt soo off! Random pains, low energy, lack of sleep, cramping, digestion issues, headaches, like so off. I even started doing IV because I thought I was dehydrated. Needless to say, once I started including some animal products I started feeling so much better! I didn’t want to eat animals. I wanted to be vegan forever. I cried a lot. But I’ve come to terms with it and have decided that it is what it is.
Wow that’s very similar to me. You have to listen to your body! I appreciate you for commenting and sharing your experience!
You got this cousin 🙏🏾🤙🏾
Thank you fam ✊🏾🙏🏾
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💕
❤️❤️❤️
I appreciate your honesty. Your vibration was a lot higher when you were vegan though… Scrolling through all of your old videos. I hope you go vegan again!!!
Not sure if that’s because it was hard to make this video and I was emotional or not. But I appreciate you!
Good to hear. There's lots of misinformation about food, we definitely need meat. B12 is not the only nutrient that is completely lacking in plants. Be glad this happened sooner rather than later.
Yeah for sure
Not true
@@dannyspitzer1267 Actually it is. Provide a study instead of making claims because you don't like the truth.
@@dannyspitzer1267 like I said in the video. I think everyone body is different and do what’s best for you and your body
