My wife’s grandpa is 104 years old as I type this. He lived in rural Thailand his whole life. Modern medicine hadn’t reached his village until maybe just 30 years ago. He had covid when he was 102. I asked my wife about what he eats and ate through the years. She said almost all he ate was white rice and fruit, all grown locally. He’s semi bed-ridden at this stage but that’s only fairly recently. He was moving around, gardening, playing with his great grandchildren into his 99th year.
+Alexandra R check out this video it has more info: Dr. Don Show Radio Interview with Dr. Rosati and Kitty Rosati A patient is mentioned, she ate grapefruit and oats for breakfast, 2 fruits for lunch and rice, and 2 fruits for dinner and rice.
I was on the rice diet for months. I actually enjoyed the diet. I have tried different types of rice and the one that I have enjoyed the most was the medium grain rice. It is moist and flavorful. I used medium grain white rice with predominately berries. With in short time period on the diet, My blood shot eye and yellowish tinted eyes had cleared up. My blood pressure dropped so much that I had to add up slowly vegetables. Several positive things came out of the rice diet. My itching shins completely disappeared. I had so much energy. I felt like running a marathon. I’m starting the rice diet again to clear up a side effects from the Covid immunization vaccine. But this time, I would try to use different starches like sweet potatoes, red potatoes, oatmeal and etc.
I add a few tablespoons of Raisins to my White rice I cook in the Instapot. I eat one cup of rice along with an Apple, or an Orange. Or sometimes I will even cut up a Banana in my Raisin rice.
I'm on day five. Rice snd kimchi for me. I never tire if the stuff! Haven't had any for a long time, as I've been avoiding carbs luke the plague; and now here I am, all the way over at the high carb, low fat and protein end of the dietary soectrum. Fingers crossed, but so far so good!
It's a fast of sorts. Or a Mary's mini, or a potato reset (I know, it's rice) but it eliminates the salt and high potassium of the potato diet. I always lose faster when I eat rice, I eat brown rice, than I do with potatoes. It may be that I just eat differently. Love both, and love the lovely foods I can create with them and all the other starches available. I'm really thankful for these men who were so dedicated in deveoping these diets, having suffered my whole life with diet problems. Can't say I like the corporal punishment they used when they weren't happy when someone got off track. Thankfully we have the wonderful people we have like you, Dr. Greger to impart the actuall research to us.

Since this diet removes fats, salts and proteins and your condition improves, it means running your body on pure carbs is the best thing for your health. What could be more obvious? The food industries try to tell us we need tons of protein and "good fats" to be healthy.....we follow that idea and lead the world in heart attack deaths.
@@contrarian717 This is why the vegan doctors are very sneaky. They do not explain this to you to the point of lying. Kempner's diet starts at only 400-800calories of rice at the first stage. Then they slowly add table sugar and fruits later and then more rice. This will take months until you stabilize at 2400calories. What happened there? They restricted your intake of carbohydrates. They could have given you 400calories of snickers and the result will be the same. This diet is very hard to follow because you are starving.

You have a choice today on where your meat comes from and how it was treated and culled. There are now farmers raising grass fed beef and culling them humanely..the way Temple Grandin advised. Same goes for chicken and fish. The answer is not to stop eating meat. Humans are Omnivores..we were made to eat meat and it is why we are here today. The answer is how to do it more humanely.
Some of my friends need to be dropped off on a deserted island (not a desert island) without cigarettes/smokes and alcohol and with only rice and fruit and some vegetables to survive on. Then they would surly quit smoking ;) and quit drinking ;) and become healthier as a result. I had often figured that if I were rich I'd have them kidnapped and parachuted in, monitored and picked up if they so chose when they reached a healthy state. Now though, I should probably join them and also so they didn't suspect me. :) One can only hope. In the mean time I'll just work on myself.

Yes. You may drop the sugar however - it's only added to make rice more palatable. Plain potatoes are also a good choice - they have even less fat than rice.

Thank you so much for that video! I had a discussion recently about Kempner's rice diet, and critics brought up this statement from Kempner himself: Kempner (1949): "The treatment of heart and kidney disease and of hypertensive and arteriosclerotic vascular disease with the rice diet is either ineffective or dangerous, unless it is done under rigidly controlled conditions. Ineffective, because small or "minimal" additions to the diet may spoil the entire therapeutic result; dangerous, because a strict observance of the diet may lead to a deficiency of vitally important elements unless care is taken that the equilibrium between intake and loss of these substances is maintained. For both reasons, therefore, continuous supervision, over a long period of time, including constant checks of blood and urine chemistry, is essential." Could someone please explain this?
Mmh? What's to explain, exactly? His point is that you must monitor very specific medical signs to determine whether or not this approach is effective, as it's very easy to create critical unbalances which can have severe results if not properly balanced with the necessary adjustments.
Alex DeLarge Okay makes sense, but I did this at home for ten days (only), and I don't think it's any dangerous. But of course, people see it as an opposing argument why the rice diet would be bad for your health.
Nadja NoCheese Anything you say can and will be used against you ;p It can be really be dangerous though, especially long term (salt deprivation in particular seems kinda unnecessary to me, even when we're talking of patients suffering from hypertension), but it's not a diet designed to go on long-term anyway, neither it's a diet designed for people with risk factors that would matter (think Addison). All in all there are better options available, and Kempner's diet was more of a draft of the modern "healing" diets than something I'd experiment nowadays. To each their own though!
***** You should lock yourself in with a big bag of rice and potatoes! I'm living on the McDougall diet for 4 months now and feel incredible, have also lost lots of weight! GO GO GO FOR IT!
I understand Kempner's frustrations. Sometimes people don't care about their health and it is so frustrating because their families are going to be the ones picking up the pieces when these morons end up disabled or croaking from something preventable.
I had Pancreatic cancer a total death sentence. I started out eating eating 3 a day then increased until I got to 30 a day. broken up into morning and evening. Let me tell you, the stories and testimonials are true. My Dr could not believe it! 'And yet when I told him what I was doing he didn't want to hear it saying it couldn't be true or the ACS would be all over it. Bottom line it works.
Can't belive that my country is so outdated in nutrition!!! We need new minds, can't belive that I had to read Esselstyn work in english because I couldn't find it in spanish.
Used to eat lots of rice. Did nothing for my high blood pressure, except put on the weight. After cutting rice, bread, and processed sugar out, I have been loosing a 1/2 pound a day and it feels like my blood pressure is going down.
tubejim101 No, I think shubus's point is you didn't, as researchers say, isolate the difficulty. It is possible your organism just doesn't respond to rice, but it's likely you were eating lots of other things that were implicated in your weight gain and unchanged high blood pressure. Hypertension isn't usually caused by carbohydrates, unless they are very high in salt, so it's odd that merely eliminating these things is helping you.
He ate himself into an early grave, so no thanks. He also hadn't drawn a single breath without wheezing for 25 years at least. But this is an effective way to heal and start fresh.
@@madeleinegrayson8372 Dr McDougall was crippled at 18 when he got a heart attack. But he managed to prolong and improve his life a lot due to his eating and exercise.
@@peteroffpist1621 that in no way explains his terrible health, falls or wheezing, lol. Man, cult members will justify anything. His crappy diet did all of that.
*********************************** QUESTION: How much rice does the patient eat? & How many times per day? *********************************************************************
Doesn't the Rice Diet contradict Dr. Greger's stance on sugar? The patients in Kempner's program averaged eating 100 grams of sugar a day and the diet allowed up to 500 grams of sugar per day (over a pound).
That was for patients on deaths door step, that needed calories but absolutely no protein. For me with ailing Kidneys I just ate more fruit if I felt like it. I cooked my Rice with a half cup of Raisins in the Instapot.
your body needs sugar (and other forms of energy foods) for many things- especially if you are sick- you body has to get energy to fight the illness- just don't overdo it- everything in moderation-
Hi, is the rice diet effective for chronic kidney disease patient on the verge of being placed on dialysis? Also, how long should a person stay on the rice diet before transitioning to a whole food plant based diet?
@@markmaxwell4890 I was not able to keep doing my very physically demanding job and the rice diet at the same time. But it did help. But the Cordyceps really helped.
Those people probably had diabetes also, so that rice, sugar, fruit, and juice diet can also be safely given to people with diabetes? I am asking because my mom has diabetes, hypertension, and obesity. I am wondering if the diet can work for her.
there was a famous experiment before kempner's. I forget the name, they fed type 2 diabetics like 500g of sugar a day and it seemed to reverse their type2 diabetes.
rice is a staple food in the southern part of India and we have got the highest Diabetes issues in the world.Doctors say Rice is the main reason because they have too much of carbs.Rice is been eaten since ages but the diabetes problem has started since three or two decades,dont know what is the reason for this problem exactly.
Their consumption of vegetable oils exploded: www.business-standard.com/article/markets/india-s-per-capita-consumption-of-edible-oil-might-rise-4-113032300184_1.html
He was German, " they have ways of making you lose weight." Really, who cares what he and she did as consenting adults? If your smart, it's not the doctor's that convince you of anything, it's feeling better. My gallbladder doesn't hurt anymore, I'm no longer so stiff and sore, that's motivation.
It is most disturbing, how it is common knowledge that you can make people eat meat dairy and eggs through screening short acts of happiness and wellbeing in the media. Nevertheless doctors said to Mr. Esselstyn, that they know of no way to make the person follow any diet. And therefore it is presumed, that it is only possible to treat them pharmaceutically (short therm effort, long time influence), poking them with a needle (short therm physical violence), under threat of illness or death if not treated (psychological violence). These methods are somehow considered more acceptable, than isoliting people (like Dr. Arnoldo Cantani did) or beating them with a whip (like Dr. Kempner did), although I see the same violence but with better results. While stating that it is impossible for a prolonged influence on patients in order for them to stick to the diet - the doctors fail to recognize, that prolonged influence on people is the monopoly of the media. Which is done not only by the food, but also the pharma industry, which are forcing pills and food down into our hands and down our throats through psychological and neurolinguistic trickery. Only difference is, that this trickery is done not in favor of health, but in order for us to buy more food and pills, even if we don't need them. Also the food mostly sold is of a different sort (high fat, high protein, low carb) than a person requires for health. Taking all what I have written into account one may only see two options: an uneven battle of advertisement budgets between the healthy diet promoting doctors and the food industry plus the cardio, cancer and heart associations sponsored by those same industries. Or a new type of video-therapy, where the person is isolated from regular advertisement and given specially designed healthy advertisement by the doctor.
I did this diet for months. I put rice and water in a rice cooker, that is all. It is bland but you get used to it. The rice is not the problem. After a while I added other vegetables, spices, and small amounts of fish. When Dr Kempner started he only had his patients on rice and fruit for a few weeks until their condition stabilized then added vegetables and fish or chicken (1 serving of fish or chicken a week).
Kempner's patients were eating under 1200 calories a day. That is more likely to have been the beneficial component. Rice and fruit diet, especially eating normal calories will lead to hyperglycaemia for most Westerners. Buy a blood glucose monitor and test your blood 30 and 45 minutes after eating rice.
Too bad my "other half " doesn't believe me about the vegan diet, & he sometimes makes fun of me, & especially in a restaurant where I have super limited choices, or literally there's nothing on the menu for me. :( Let's just keep in mind that I'm 5'2, 102 pounds, & he's, idk, but his jeans are 38, shirts are a 2xL. My jeans are either 00, 0, & occasionally 1. My shirts are a size XS. Yet he still won't accept the reality.
That's sad that he is intimidated by your strength of character and health. The ones who redicule you, are the very ones who need your wisdom the most, and may die too young from food related illnesses.
Thai people have a sweet sticky rice with mango and coconut cream ? What if we just ate that ? How about Vietnamese sweet sticky rice with mung beans and coconut shreds and ground peanuts ? Chinese sweet red bean soup with lemon rind and maybe coconut cream ?
Great video. Does anyone knows what the actual diet is? Detail? Calories?…etc I tried to find the actual paper to read, but could not find it? Anyone knows where to find the paper online? Thank you .
Vasco Amaral Grillo Durianrider can get away with it because he is very active physically, however the kempner's rice diet is being falsely represented. The original rice diet is actually restricting the amount of carbs or calories you eat. It starts with just 400 calories of rice and table sugar and gradually increase it to 2400 calories in many months. It works because of carbohydrate restriction.
No. the original Kempner diet was eucaloric, later slightly deficient in calories. You don't want large caloric deficit, because then again you'll get too much of fatty acids in the blood.
"FDR's fatal event could have been averted" YES, and we should add that Harry Truman would not have succeeded him as president. This is REALLY important as, according to William O. Douglas, FDR would not have used the atom bomb on Japan.
White rice can contribute to a thiamine deficiency - be sure to get ample thiamine throughout the day, every day, otherwise risk cardiovascular, neurological and cognitive issues. Everyone dealing with any of the above should be avoiding wheat and getting as much thiamine as frequently as possible.
The diet contains in 2000 calories about 15-25g protein 4-6g fat and 460-470 g of carbs. you choose to focus on the plant based diet rather than the calorie deficit which might been the reason of the health benefits or at least contributed to the results, I'm not saying vegan diet is bad but this video might be misleading
so kempner ided ofa heart attack who practiced the rice died and teddy roosevelt died of a heart disease but then you say the rice diet could of helped teddy roosevelt but obviously not so much then huh thats a slight contradiction isn't it?
Absolutely. It is adding fat to Carbs that causes the problems. Potatoes are fine and you will lose weight on them, add butter and now you just ruined it. Tastes good though right?
@@conniealldis yep. If you look at the bear studies you will see that bears hunt and eat lots of animals before going into hibernation, after all that animal fat their insulin receptors become desensitized so they stop eating honey. And when they're in this coma sleep, they burn off all the fat they gained from those animals so that when they wake up again, they can restore insulin sensitivity and regain their ability to eat honey. 🤯🤯🤯
As long as the body produces adequate insulin it vmcan deal with high carb meals. As the 3 meals a day ideal popularized in the west became increasingly used in the east, so too did diabetes. Why? Bcz frequent eating increases insulin secretion. This will, over time, lead to insulin resistance. Hence diabetes. If they go to eating less frequently, eliminate snacking, practice some form of intermittent fasting, insulin production will decline and then so too insulin resistance. So then some rice and/or other high carb foods will be tolerated, in small amounts. But since man cannot survive well on rice alone, meat will still need to be a significant part of the diet, you imbeciles

Read Dr. Neal Barnard's Reversing Diabetes. Fat causes type 2 diabetes as it coats the cells and blocks the effectiveness of insulin. I eat tons of potatoes, rice, big banana smoothies and my blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure and weight are incredible.
Bear in mind that he was treating cardiovascular diseases and diseases associated with excess protein intake. None among hypertension (sodium, in this case), renal failure (proteins), papilledema (proteins again, in this case), congestive heart failure (supposedly a mix of sodium/fat?) is directly affected by glycemia, so he simply wasn't treating patients that needed therapy for that. We often put together diabetes and the other signs of metabolic syndrome, but, like in this case, they can be separated from each other.
Plant foods seems to address all these issues including diabetes, basically the avoidance of animal products that we aren't really well suited for consuming.

This was very entertaining, especially about how the doctors tried to keep their patients in line with the diet. 🙂
Thank you so much for that video!
I had a discussion recently about Kempner's rice diet, and critics brought up this statement from Kempner himself:
Kempner (1949):
"The treatment of heart and kidney disease and of hypertensive and arteriosclerotic vascular disease with the rice diet is either ineffective or dangerous, unless it is done under rigidly controlled conditions. Ineffective, because small or "minimal" additions to the diet may spoil the entire therapeutic result; dangerous, because a strict observance of the diet may lead to a deficiency of vitally important elements unless care is taken that the equilibrium between intake and loss of these substances is maintained. For both reasons, therefore, continuous supervision, over a long period of time, including constant checks of blood and urine chemistry, is essential."
Could someone please explain this?
Mmh? What's to explain, exactly? His point is that you must monitor very specific medical signs to determine whether or not this approach is effective, as it's very easy to create critical unbalances which can have severe results if not properly balanced with the necessary adjustments.
Alex DeLarge Okay makes sense, but I did this at home for ten days (only), and I don't think it's any dangerous. But of course, people see it as an opposing argument why the rice diet would be bad for your health.
Nadja NoCheese Anything you say can and will be used against you ;p
It can be really be dangerous though, especially long term (salt deprivation in particular seems kinda unnecessary to me, even when we're talking of patients suffering from hypertension), but it's not a diet designed to go on long-term anyway, neither it's a diet designed for people with risk factors that would matter (think Addison). All in all there are better options available, and Kempner's diet was more of a draft of the modern "healing" diets than something I'd experiment nowadays. To each their own though!
Dr. McDougall explains it on his website: www.drmcdougall.com/2013/12/31/walter-kempner-md-founder-of-the-rice-diet/
***** You should lock yourself in with a big bag of rice and potatoes! I'm living on the McDougall diet for 4 months now and feel incredible, have also lost lots of weight!
GO GO GO FOR IT!
I was just diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes...I'm DEFINITELY trying this!
How was it?
@@rawcamino7227 i wanna know aswell
Did it work?
And how's it going???
@@conniealldis I am currently following Dr. Roy Taylor's protocol for Diabetes. Will update after my blood work next month.
The ultimate ad whip diet! ))
I understand Kempner's frustrations. Sometimes people don't care about their health and it is so frustrating because their families are going to be the ones picking up the pieces when these morons end up disabled or croaking from something preventable.
basmati4lyf
It`s hard watching family eat their way to an earlier grave than should be :(
It's hard watching someone drink their way to the grave too. Alcoholism in this country is off the charts.
But whipping them like a slave tho?😂 How is that going to motivate anyone?
I'd really appreciate if you could do a video on whether vitamin B17 is quackery or actually works. Thanks
I had Pancreatic cancer a total death sentence. I started out eating eating 3 a day then increased until I got to 30 a day. broken up into morning and evening. Let me tell you, the stories and testimonials are true. My Dr could not believe it! 'And yet when I told him what I was doing he didn't want to hear it saying it couldn't be true or the ACS would be all over it. Bottom line it works.
Can't belive that my country is so outdated in nutrition!!! We need new minds, can't belive that I had to read Esselstyn work in english because I couldn't find it in spanish.
That’s all by design to keep people sick. We must research long and hard ourselves.
Used to eat lots of rice. Did nothing for my high blood pressure, except put on the weight. After cutting rice, bread, and processed sugar out, I have been loosing a 1/2 pound a day and it feels like my blood pressure is going down.
shubus
Point is, there is nothing magical about eating rice, and lowing high blood pressure.
tubejim101
No, I think shubus's point is you didn't, as researchers say, isolate the difficulty. It is possible your organism just doesn't respond to rice, but it's likely you were eating lots of other things that were implicated in your weight gain and unchanged high blood pressure. Hypertension isn't usually caused by carbohydrates, unless they are very high in salt, so it's odd that merely eliminating these things is helping you.
on a vegan diet?
Because u ate fat
That's because you probably ate fat, meat and salt as well.
White rice and fruit? Where do I sign up?
Plus sugar.
Honey instead of sugar?
Rice, Potato’s, , Corn, Pasta whole grain or bread whole grain all work. Together with some fruits, nuts and seeds. Check out Dr. McDougall.
He ate himself into an early grave, so no thanks. He also hadn't drawn a single breath without wheezing for 25 years at least.
But this is an effective way to heal and start fresh.
@@madeleinegrayson8372 Dr McDougall was crippled at 18 when he got a heart attack. But he managed to prolong and improve his life a lot due to his eating and exercise.
@@peteroffpist1621 that in no way explains his terrible health, falls or wheezing, lol. Man, cult members will justify anything. His crappy diet did all of that.
*********************************** QUESTION: How much rice does the patient eat? & How many times per day? *********************************************************************
Doesn't the Rice Diet contradict Dr. Greger's stance on sugar? The patients in Kempner's program averaged eating 100 grams of sugar a day and the diet allowed up to 500 grams of sugar per day (over a pound).
sugar is not harmful as long as the diet provides no excess calories and replaces no required nutrients.
That was for patients on deaths door step, that needed calories but absolutely no protein. For me with ailing Kidneys I just ate more fruit if I felt like it. I cooked my Rice with a half cup of Raisins in the Instapot.
your body needs sugar (and other forms of energy foods) for many things- especially if you are sick- you body has to get energy to fight the illness- just don't overdo it- everything in moderation-
Hi, is the rice diet effective for chronic kidney disease patient on the verge of being placed on dialysis? Also, how long should a person stay on the rice diet before transitioning to a whole food plant based diet?
So how did it go? The Rice diet really turned my Kidneys around from 78 to 117 and I am in my 50's
@@conniealldis did rice heal your kidneys ?
@@markmaxwell4890 I was not able to keep doing my very physically demanding job and the rice diet at the same time. But it did help. But the Cordyceps really helped.
would there be any problems using spices with the rice
No.
Cardamon, cinnamon, flavored balsamic vinegar’s, savory: garlic powder, curry powder, nutritional yeast, black/white pepper, chili peppers flakes
Interesting background to the Duke Univ rice diet. Too bad that Duke University ended this program in recent years.
Takes away lifelong customers. 😂
Those people probably had diabetes also, so that rice, sugar, fruit, and juice diet can also be safely given to people with diabetes? I am asking because my mom has diabetes, hypertension, and obesity. I am wondering if the diet can work for her.
there was a famous experiment before kempner's. I forget the name, they fed type 2 diabetics like 500g of sugar a day and it seemed to reverse their type2 diabetes.
WFPBD - whole food plant based diet - yes!
@@markbarbdearman2157 but the Kempner rice diet is not a WFPB diet.
You're better off with a whole food plant based diet
rice is a staple food in the southern part of India and we have got the highest Diabetes issues in the world.Doctors say Rice is the main reason because they have too much of carbs.Rice is been eaten since ages but the diabetes problem has started since three or two decades,dont know what is the reason for this problem exactly.
High animal product.
Before animal products were more expencive and difficult to get.. they were also healthier
Their consumption of vegetable oils exploded: www.business-standard.com/article/markets/india-s-per-capita-consumption-of-edible-oil-might-rise-4-113032300184_1.html
It is the fat and oil consumed in conjunction with the carbs. Carbs alone will not cause diabetes
In India you use SOO much oil with everything. It’s the oil

@@arihaviv8510not relevant to the subject.
It is most disturbing, how it is common knowledge that you can make people eat meat dairy and eggs through screening short acts of happiness and wellbeing in the media. Nevertheless doctors said to Mr. Esselstyn, that they know of no way to make the person follow any diet. And therefore it is presumed, that it is only possible to treat them pharmaceutically (short therm effort, long time influence), poking them with a needle (short therm physical violence), under threat of illness or death if not treated (psychological violence). These methods are somehow considered more acceptable, than isoliting people (like Dr. Arnoldo Cantani did) or beating them with a whip (like Dr. Kempner did), although I see the same violence but with better results. While stating that it is impossible for a prolonged influence on patients in order for them to stick to the diet - the doctors fail to recognize, that prolonged influence on people is the monopoly of the media. Which is done not only by the food, but also the pharma industry, which are forcing pills and food down into our hands and down our throats through psychological and neurolinguistic trickery. Only difference is, that this trickery is done not in favor of health, but in order for us to buy more food and pills, even if we don't need them. Also the food mostly sold is of a different sort (high fat, high protein, low carb) than a person requires for health. Taking all what I have written into account one may only see two options: an uneven battle of advertisement budgets between the healthy diet promoting doctors and the food industry plus the cardio, cancer and heart associations sponsored by those same industries. Or a new type of video-therapy, where the person is isolated from regular advertisement and given specially designed healthy advertisement by the doctor.
Even jasmine rice with a gi of 115?
Yes.
yeah i reckon if i were gonna get whipped for non-compliance, i'd bloody well stay on my diet!
Thanks for the funny realism :)
im all for losing weight and starting this diet but how do i make rice without salt or oil?
the rice will taste very bland .
by adding and changing some healthy spices. mandatory add and one pill with all necessary vitamins and minerals daily.
I did this diet for months. I put rice and water in a rice cooker, that is all. It is bland but you get used to it. The rice is not the problem. After a while I added other vegetables, spices, and small amounts of fish. When Dr Kempner started he only had his patients on rice and fruit for a few weeks until their condition stabilized then added vegetables and fish or chicken (1 serving of fish or chicken a week).
I add a half cup of raisins to my white rice that I cook in the Instapot, and then I cut up a banana over it. It is really good.
One will get used to it and gradually lose the need for salt - I did (a former saltoholic)😊
Kempner's patients were eating under 1200 calories a day. That is more likely to have been the beneficial component. Rice and fruit diet, especially eating normal calories will lead to hyperglycaemia for most Westerners. Buy a blood glucose monitor and test your blood 30 and 45 minutes after eating rice.
It was 2400kcal.
Any of you who are diabetic try this? Thanks! :)
Too bad my "other half " doesn't believe me about the vegan diet, & he sometimes makes fun of me, & especially in a restaurant where I have super limited choices, or literally there's nothing on the menu for me. :(

Don't let him drag you down, Rebecca. You do you girl.
That's sad that he is intimidated by your strength of character and health. The ones who redicule you, are the very ones who need your wisdom the most, and may die too young from food related illnesses.
Thai people have a sweet sticky rice with mango and coconut cream ? What if we just ate that ? How about Vietnamese sweet sticky rice with mung beans and coconut shreds and ground peanuts ? Chinese sweet red bean soup with lemon rind and maybe coconut cream ?
They don't want you to add oils on this diet: coconuts an peanuts.
No oils/fat!
No oil, fat or salt.

are you saying I can mix fruits with rice? some told me it would not digest properly... I bet bananas, mangoes, and persimmons will go nice with rice.
The untold secret here is the restriction of carbohydrates. You could do it faster with keto diet or fasting.
this is a high carb diet
@@decathlete2000

Great video.
Does anyone knows what the actual diet is? Detail? Calories?…etc
I tried to find the actual paper to read, but could not find it? Anyone knows where to find the paper online?
Thank you .
This is so remarkable! Durianrider (ruclips.net/user/durianriders) has also been saying that for 20 years!
durianrider is legit
Vasco Amaral Grillo Durianrider can get away with it because he is very active physically, however the kempner's rice diet is being falsely represented. The original rice diet is actually restricting the amount of carbs or calories you eat. It starts with just 400 calories of rice and table sugar and gradually increase it to 2400 calories in many months. It works because of carbohydrate restriction.
isn't kempber diet ultra low calorie
No. the original Kempner diet was eucaloric, later slightly deficient in calories. You don't want large caloric deficit, because then again you'll get too much of fatty acids in the blood.
"FDR's fatal event could have been averted" YES, and we should add that Harry Truman would not have succeeded him as president. This is REALLY important as, according to William O. Douglas, FDR would not have used the atom bomb on Japan.
FDR was poisoned.
White rice can contribute to a thiamine deficiency - be sure to get ample thiamine throughout the day, every day, otherwise risk cardiovascular, neurological and cognitive issues.
Everyone dealing with any of the above should be avoiding wheat and getting as much thiamine as frequently as possible.
The diet contains in 2000 calories about 15-25g protein 4-6g fat and 460-470 g of carbs. you choose to focus on the plant based diet rather than the calorie deficit which might been the reason of the health benefits or at least contributed to the results, I'm not saying vegan diet is bad but this video might be misleading
+Robin Wendel How is 2000 calories a deficit?
It really turned my ailing kidneys around from 78 to 117. And I lost a ton of weight, from 276 to 215lbs my goal is 188lbs
@@conniealldis what were you eating exactly? and the portion of this diet ?
If you lose weight (besides water), it's always because of a caloric deficit, not the type of food. Basic science 101
That’s a real doctor right there, he knew his method worked
so kempner ided ofa heart attack who practiced the rice died and teddy roosevelt died of a heart disease but then you say the rice diet could of helped teddy roosevelt but obviously not so much then huh thats a slight contradiction isn't it?
thebraininsideahead At age 94, any system in your body can fail for any reason. Doesn’t mean Kempener didn’t watch his health.
He cannot be expected to be immortal! He died at the ripe age of 94!
Wudda Cudda Shudda. History might have been very different indeed.
then this means they've lied to us bout starch
Absolutely. It is adding fat to Carbs that causes the problems. Potatoes are fine and you will lose weight on them, add butter and now you just ruined it. Tastes good though right?
Yes! Take a look at Dr. McDougall he says about starches. He wrote a book called The Starch Solution.
@@conniealldis yep. If you look at the bear studies you will see that bears hunt and eat lots of animals before going into hibernation, after all that animal fat their insulin receptors become desensitized so they stop eating honey. And when they're in this coma sleep, they burn off all the fat they gained from those animals so that when they wake up again, they can restore insulin sensitivity and regain their ability to eat honey.

Hey Fatty! I watch his vids when I need a kick in the ass
Dude
You just spent how many videos on how bad rice is (arsenic) and now it saves lives. Head is spinning....
The arsenal if any, goes when you wash it twice. We in India have been using rice for centuries and it has never had any such risks.
But is it an ad libitum diet? can you eat all the rice you need to be satisfied?
No, it was ad whip diet - they never wanted to each that much.
Rice contain arsenic what to do?🤔
Research best sources, and take charcoal or bentonite clay.
Doesn't rice have high levels of arsenic?
the cat is out of the bag
According to The WHO China has the highest diabetes rates in the world.
And 1980 diabetes hardly existed in China. So, rice is hardly a culprit.

Because meat consumption went up and it helps rice spike up insulin
As long as the body produces adequate insulin it vmcan deal with high carb meals. As the 3 meals a day ideal popularized in the west became increasingly used in the east, so too did diabetes. Why? Bcz frequent eating increases insulin secretion. This will, over time, lead to insulin resistance. Hence diabetes. If they go to eating less frequently, eliminate snacking, practice some form of intermittent fasting, insulin production will decline and then so too insulin resistance. So then some rice and/or other high carb foods will be tolerated, in small amounts. But since man cannot survive well on rice alone, meat will still need to be a significant part of the diet, you imbeciles

White rice diet and fruits? Isn't it a recipe for spikes in insulin levels?
Read Dr. Neal Barnard's Reversing Diabetes. Fat causes type 2 diabetes as it coats the cells and blocks the effectiveness of insulin. I eat tons of potatoes, rice, big banana smoothies and my blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure and weight are incredible.
Bear in mind that he was treating cardiovascular diseases and diseases associated with excess protein intake. None among hypertension (sodium, in this case), renal failure (proteins), papilledema (proteins again, in this case), congestive heart failure (supposedly a mix of sodium/fat?) is directly affected by glycemia, so he simply wasn't treating patients that needed therapy for that.
We often put together diabetes and the other signs of metabolic syndrome, but, like in this case, they can be separated from each other.
Plant foods seems to address all these issues including diabetes, basically the avoidance of animal products that we aren't really well suited for consuming.
Potato Strong Hi PotatoSTrong I follow you a lot. You may have answered this but do you eat brown or white rice?P Are you afraid of the arsenic that is in rice? I think brown has even more than white.
