  • Thirty days of going vegan is in the books and I have to say this one was a bit more difficult than keto for me as it took me out of my comfort zone. This Vegan 30 day challenge certainly surprised me in several ways and at the end of the day, I think it is a reasonable diet to follow as long as it's planned adequately.
    If you have an idea of something you want me to cover in depth, please let me know because I take your requests seriously. We will be back with more Doctor Reacts Series & Responding to Comments so please submit more names of shows/episodes & questions you'd like for me to watch. Love you all!

      Burning everything that isn't recyclable isn't really equivalent to zero waste. I know many farms do it so no fault to you or your family but in terms of the goals of zero waste, the environmental impact of burning is significantly worse than landfill/mulching. Simple way to think about it is if every landfill, instead of being big piles of dirt/debris is now a forever fire because all the trash is constantly being burned.

Going vegan actually made me develop an interest in cooking and researching how to make alternatives to the foods I use to like. But at the end of the day, everyone needs to listen to their body and do what is best for them.

      The average person doesn’t get anywhere near what they should in terms of their fibre intake, so if you decide to try a whole foods vegan diet, the trick is to increase your fibre intake very gradually (or apply the FODMAP principles which will reap similar results). Consistency is key with fibre. It will take a little while for your tummy to adjust - but it’s absolutely worth persevering. I used to get colds all the time, but since adopting a whole foods approach, I hardly ever get colds, and when I do, they’re over so much quicker. I credit all those immune boosting fruit and veggies, the spices such as turmeric, ginger, garlic etc - and elimination of foods which tend to encourage production of mucus (dairy). If you need a home remedy to replace the Manuka honey, date syrup or maple syrup would be good and cheaper too.

Most notably, as a woman, my reproductive health suffered immensely. When I went vegan, I reversed my endometriosis, had a happy and healthy pregnancy, periods don’t hurt whatsoever! AND I’m eating 2300+ calories a day without putting on a pound! I’ve been able to maintain my weight at a healthy BMI (at the lower end of a normal BMI).

    I became vegetarian in 2nd grade after reading a book of food facts, which also included how hot dogs were made. I realized then that meat came from animals. My family didn't respect my choices AT ALL. I was excluded from family meals. They'd all sit at the table and eat while my little 7-year-old self was in the kitchen trying to cook for myself. Becoming vegetarian was a trial by fire. The entire world was against me but I stayed strong and eventually my family accepted it wasn't changing. Transitioning to veganism was harder for me because I thought it was something I could overcome through sheer willpower like becoming vegetarian. But Dr. Mike is right that planning is critical. The first two times I tried to become vegan overnight and I failed. The third time, I did transition overnight but I did it in tandem with research and planning out what I would do from there. And I've been happily vegan since 2019 :)

      I don't understand why vegans are anti eggs and milk. Cows would die if they aren't milked regularly. Sure, there probably is some negativity in drinking milk from a different species, but aside from that, drinking milk does not harm cows. Honey is also a weird thing to be annoyed over.

    Hello! This is my first time ever commenting on a RUclips video, but I had to reach out. I absolutely love that you did a video on this (although it seems I am 3 years late to this party). I have personally been a vegetarian for over 13 years and I definitely understand where you are coming from as far as both will power to do other things as well as your body adjusting with added flatulence. I can say from personal experience, both of those DO get better with time, and eventually it will be completely second nature so you are not putting in so much mental effort into your diet. I was a vegetarian for about 5 years before becoming vegan for a year and I experienced the same stomach problems making EACH transition. It was odd, but it did go away after a few weeks of getting readjusted. My diet is so much a part of me now I barely even think about it, so no extra energy is being used forcing myself to eat a certain way. Obviously you know what's best for your needs, and I am definitely not trying to convert anybody, but know IT DOES GET EASIER.

      @Aniruddh Sharma I'm not vegan, but mate, you should really do some basic research before calling anybody ridiculous. No vegans I ever heard of are against breastfeeding at all, where did you even get that? In fact, if anything, I heard of many vegans breastfeeding for longer than usual, until the baby weans off naturally or something, not sure what the proper terminology is. Anyway, longer than your average mom. And the reason why vegans stay away from dairy is the ethical issues, same as all other restrictions they have. Cows are mammals, so in order for a cow to produce milk she needs to get impregnated (artificially) and shortly after giving birth the calf is taken away and the milk she produces is taken. The calf is either taken to the veil industry, raised to repeat the mother's fate (if female) or just killed. Those cows also obviously live in shitty conditions, get impregnated as often as possible and have way shorter lifespans than they would naturally (because it's not profitable to let them live for long). Vegans don't think that is appropriate to treat animals like this, same as most "regular" people wouldn't like the idea of same thing happening to dogs/cats. I hope that was somewhat helpful!

    I am late to the party but from my experience the first few weeks are the hardest because we all are so controlled by our habits. After this first couple weeks it gets easier an easier till you can't understand why not everybody is doing it. This last point is probably one reason for the fights between vegans and non-vegans.
    A Tip for people who want to look into vegan food: try ist once every week and after a while maybe do it full time, as long as you feel happy about it.

    In 2017, somebody challenged me to go vegan. I was brought up Ukrainian Canadian, one thing you'll see in all Ukrainian Canadian households where I live is that beef, chicken and pork are the life force, they gave their lives to feed us and we have them with every meal. But, regardless I went vegan and the most surprising thing happened during my last week on the treatment. One day, I woke up feeling light, not like I'd lost weight but my mind was bright, I was happy, chipper, and had energy stores galore. It was like I'd spent my entire life with a loaded hockey bag on my shoulders 24/7 and someone lifted it off.
    Now, I didn't stay vegan, but I didn't regress far either. I went to vegetarianism where dairy is allowed, fish is allowed, and you can eat meat once a month and that's where I've been ever since. I still like beef and I love curried goat, but it's better saved for once a month.
    For the bloating and gas, chai tea. Black chai tea is a good fix for any GI issues, it doesn't solve any of them but it pushes them to the background until you can deal with them.

    Here's the situation, from my perspective. Mike was eating what seems like a lot of processed vegan food. That'll make you pretty tired even on a non vegan diet. You're obviously going to be better off, whether you're vegan or not, eating foods that aren't processed.
    If you plan on going vegan, I recommend eating more raw vegetables, and foods that aren't specifically advertised as vegan. So, maybe avoid 'vegan cheese'.
    It's going to take a while for your digestive system to become used to a whole new diet. Cutting out a large "food group" is definitely going to give you gas or mess up your digestion somehow, but that'll probably stop once your body gets used to the change. For me, it took at least 4 or 5 weeks.
    I'd also bear in mind that a plant-based diet won't always result in weight loss, if that's your goal. There are a lot of plant-based alternatives to meat or dairy, which probably contain more calories, saturated fats, etc.

      One of his biggest problems were digestion and not getting enough calories, so eating only unprocessed vegan foods (beans, whole grains, raw(!) vegetables etc) would make it better? Those things are super hard to digest and higher im volume (means you need to eat way more to get enough calories). Seems pretty counterproductive, but maybe that's just me. I tried going vegan too and had to give up after a few months. I used cronometer and took supplements to hit all my nutrient targets, cooked from scratch, but my digestion killed me. Was in pain pretty much 24/7 except in the morning before I ate breakfast and I tried every hack I could find to make beans more digestible. 🤷🏼‍♀️

    as a vegetarian with IBS, yes the struggle is real when the options are lentils, chickpea or beans lol. I have to find other protein sources which is why I cannot go fully vegan according to my nutritionist.
    When I started this diet, I used to go 4-5 times a day lmao I always had bad farts, and now i barely fart and it's never smelly.
    Loving this diet and couldn't recommend it enough. Do your part for the world, then also do what's best for your body!!!

      Honestly.. I grew up with a Mediterranean and Middle Eastern diet and it’s therefore natural for me to eat this way, but I’ve seen some videos made by Americans etc. on how to do the Mediterranean diet and it’s just not correct.. people overthink it.. some basic tips are
      1. Eat natural none processed foods
      2. olive oil in and on everything
      3. Tomatoes and lemons are your best friend
      4. Fish, beans and legumes over meat
      5. Nuts, fruits and sun goes a long way 😆

    When you suddenly increase your fiber intake, it can cause gas and bloating. This is because the bacteria in your gut are not used to breaking down that amount of fiber, which leads to increased gas production.
    For people who don't consume enough fiber, this can be a common issue. According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, only about 5% of Americans consume the recommended amount of fiber per day, which is about 25-38 grams for adults. This means that 1 in every 5 people may not be getting enough fiber in their diet.
    To avoid or reduce the symptoms of gas and bloating, it's recommended to gradually increase your fiber intake over several days or weeks, drink plenty of water, and spread fiber intake throughout the day. It's also important to choose fiber-rich foods that are easier to digest, such as cooked vegetables, fruits, and whole grains.

    Gas is usually the result of eating something you don't normally eat or eating a much larger quantity than you're accustomed to. It could be something as seemingly benign as a spice or food additive. Generally once you identify the problem food or additive, you need to back off then slowly increase it until your gut flora adjust -- assuming it's something you want to eat.
    I can eat a whole pound of beans or broccoli with no problems, but I suspect that something as simple as silicon dioxide in a store-bought spice blend can give me hours of gas and bloating.

    "It's a restrictive diet" I've been vegan for eleven years now and low FODMAP for eight years. It was much harder for me not being able to eat wheat, rye, spelt and barley anymore than being vegan, but I got used to it. No trouble getting my calories in, even when I went to the gym up to seven hours a week, and no deficiencies. It can be done! But I agree it does take an effort, you need to invest time in learning about food and cooking new dishes.
    What made me go plant-based was a combination of lactose intolerance and having severe pain after eating meat. Crying on the floor kind of pain. My ideas about animal welfare developed afterwards, when I could let go of the idea that eating meat was normal and necessary, as I was raised to believe.

      @argheighteen 5 лет назад +8

      Honey is for bees to eat. You take it from them and they have to work harder to make more. On top of that, farmers smoke the hives to drive the bees away from the hives. What is their first reaction to being smoked? The bees will save as much honey as they can. So please don't say we are not harming the bees.
