I have a slew of health issues and it’s really taking a toll on my body. I feel like nothing is working and I am already on 2 medications at 32 years old. Today marks the first day of my vegan diet because I have to try to help myself . Praying I got this 🙌🏽
I wish you the best of health and healing in your journey! I will certainly keep you in my prayers. You got this!
How are you going with your diet?
How did you get on?
Eat a healthy plant based diet and exercise regularly.
Every adult and child should own a bicycle and ride it regularly.
Obesity is all too common today. Get off the couch.
Ride to work, ride to school, ride for fun.
Every city should be a bicycle city.
Speak up for bicycles in your community.
Yes, evreyone should live within five miles from work. Simple.
Or you could run. Lol.
I'm a little worried about cars hitting bikes. I know too many that have fallen off their bike and seriously hurt themselves or DIED!!!!
I walk 10,000 steps per day. Safer 🙏😎
@@adorable3817 It's laughable really, I sat at my desk and lost 30kg sitting on my six. All I ate was meat, fat and vegetables.
@@adorable3817 Cities need to do more to provide safe, protected bike lanes and trail so adults and children can ride bicycles safely. Bicycles are healthy exercise and fossil fuels free transportation. Helps reduce noise and pollution in cities.
Also, regarding Vit D: if your skin is darker, you have a better protection - but will also absorb less - and if you’re living where there’s not enough sun, you’re at higher risk of being deficient.
Apparently the folks in Azerbaijan and Indonesia are very enlightened!
The man speaks the truth. It is so wonderful to hear someone speaking the truth. He is a great soul.
I’m hooked up on this plant based diet.
HEY, did you know that Israelis are becoming Vegan? They have all my respect.
Retire all Animals who are not being eaten by humans? WOW, that’s sensational, a dream come true, and Dr Barnard is, at least, 100 year ahead of most humans
@Umbra If you're already hooked on a plant based diet, RUclips "Processed People Extended Talks". And then scroll thru to the !2 minutes from Caldwell Esselstyn
Very timely and relevant information. Thank you so much!
You need to tell people yes eat the whole food carbs like rice, beans and potatoes but stay away from the vegan butter and fats and oils otherwise they will gain weight! That’s a piece that needs to be emphasized. You can make great fat free sauces and vegan cheese sauces to use on them. There is a little fat in most vegetables naturally.
I “drink” 25 litres of olive evo oil from Sicily per year (TWO LITERS PER MONTH) and I am very very thin
@@AntonellaFavaretto I just hope that the arteries don’t tell her otherwise. Otherwise God bless🙏🏾
@@AntonellaFavaretto I use about the same amount of evoo as you do and, along with fresh-squeezed lemon juice, drizzle it on ALL my dishes! After drizzling I sprinkle a little granulated garlic and salt.
@@OboeDaCaccia Evoo?
@@gmr1241 Evoo = Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Some people give up eating potatoes because it causes them high blood sugar, but all they need do is ensure that they eat a smaller portion alongside protein or with lots of high fiber vegetables...or cool the potato after cooking to develop resistant starch.
Great episode!
Thank you for this podcast. Very informative.
Dr. Barnard is always delivers!!!*****
Thank you very much !
Love this channel and information that is always here for vegans like me! Many thanks to all of you!
Love and respect from India!
Outstanding presentation! Thanks to both Chuck and Dr B!
This is a lot of good information and is a good reminder for me. I have canned beans that have some salt. However, I prepared for the future to measure out my salt with an empty salt shaker and a 1/2 teaspoon to measure it daily, when the time comes. Also, I bought a multivitamin that has B12, but also helps me with some other nutrients I can be a little short during weight loss, including calcium, zinc. The weight loss will be done in 3 weeks tops. :-)
By the way, on all healthy carbs, I lowered my weight so far 78 lb. Of course, it's possible to overeat some more calorie dense carbs but I'm careful with that and to eat foods that seem to reduce my hunger, such as potatoes, which are less calorie dense. I do get hunger but it's tolerable. This is eating 1500 calories. I have days where I eat more, on rare occasion, but the potatoes reduces those special days.
Banana Nice Cream
I want to tell people about banana ice cream. It's very similar to ice cream, especially being so cold and the texture. I think the flavor is close but not exactly the same.
Take 2 bananas, break up into 1/3 inch pieces or about that size, and put in freezer bag. I freeze a long time to be sure, for 12 hours, I heard others say 4-8 hours.
Have a strong blender or food processor: put the bananas in there and blend up, and you can add things like cacao, which I do, 3 grams per banana.
*** I also add 1/4 cup of water per banana, and other people seem to like different types of plant milk, like soy milk.
I have to stop in the middle and use a spoon to get the big chunks down by the blade. I have to shake my blender some to get the big chunks down there. It's not the same taste as ice cream but it is very close and very good.
You must have a really strong Blended and not have to put any liquid in there
Do you just use cacao or cacao nibs and what type of blender do you have?
@@kingakuma7 I made a mistake and forgot to mention: 1/4 cup of water per banana. The blender is Nutribullet 900 series, which is smaller but fine for me a single person.
@@kingakuma7 Better Body Works cacao powder from Walmart, like $9 a for 1 lb.
Yes!!!! 😎👍 I eat it every day. I add frozen strawberries, 1/4 fresh apple, 1/2 fresh kiwi, mint leaves from the Garden, 1 dash of Cinnamon and few drops of vanilla.
Also, I drink a bitter tea each morning, and put the contents of used teabag into the nice cream.
SUUUUUPER delicious 🥰
Great video Chuck Carroll and Dr. Barnard giving vegans the essential information we need.
Dr Barnard is my favourite doctor 🥇
Hello Chuck and Dr. Barnard. I've seen this episode so many times and now I've got a question, because I often notice this ingredient in vegan multivitamins: is d-biotin really vegan?
I was vegetarian, now I'm PBWF vegan. I love my beans 💪 I often recommend your RUclips channel around the world to family and friends. Since I am PBWF vegan, I'm always happy 🙂 Thank you very much for making the world a healthier place. Greetings from The Netherlands. Your big fan exam roomie, Tita.
Thx for sharing! =)
I look forward to your programme very informative
Excellent q&a today!
Congratulations Chuck!!!!
Wow!!! Nuts and avocados are a huge part of my plant based diet. I’ve been diagnosed when I was 36 with borderline cholesterol. Still, cannot give up nuts and avos. I eat 2 avocados a day. However, I recently had a blood test that was normal. (Now I’m 44.)Just a little low in iron. So I’m told by my doctor to take a multivitamin. I was actually against supplemented vitamins, but I found a whole food multivitamin that I’m trying.
I have been a vegetarian off and on vegan since I was a teenager, actually switched to raw vegan over the last few months. It’s not easy, but it’s a great feeling. I consume cooked foods once in awhile now but actually trying to get back to my raw vegan diet 100%. I’m going to try going without sunscreen for about 10 minutes in the morning while I water my plants. My dad died of melanoma at age 55 so I do still believe in wearing spf most of the time. Living in Southern California. Good information. Thanks for the video.
You can always take vitamin D instead of worrying about the sun. I got plenty of sun earlier and now I have spots. I live in California too. I use sunscreen all the time. My vitamin D is gone from 22 to over 60. I had that 22 after going All summer with sunscreen, so that’s why I use it💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Dr Barnard is very really good in repeating dietary❤. I really admire such communication passion 😂
We need to transform fishing communities to seaweed communities.
Please buy seaweed, to eat, as a sustainable veganic plant fertilizer, etc
But not from Costco as it contains bad oils in it
I love being an exam roomie! Great info. Glad you guys are getting reach and influencing others.
Thanks Dr for this great information ❤❤ what is the symptom of Cholesterol can you take B12 everyday
Excellent presentation. Thank you, gentlemen. Very professional and balanced. Re Peanut butter - I now only buy peanut butter that's 100% peanuts with no added sugar or salt. And absolutely no palm oil.
Neal Barnard is like the Michael Jordan of the vegan world
Love your podcasts!! I’ve been moving toward a plant-based diet, but have been having trouble with keeping on enough weight. My husband and I enjoy a bowl of popcorn every day and I like to add a tablespoon or two of olive oil. Is that going to be harmful if I’m trying to reduce my blood pressure and cholesterol?
Extra-virgin olive oil is the healthiest of all the refined oils. That being said, it is an oil that is also 2% saturated fat, it is also highly refined, and is incredibly calorie dense. It's not a whole food, and your body can absorb most of it. This is unlike eating foots high in fat like whole nuts; most of the fat in whole nuts doesn't get absorbed. Generally, refined oils will not help when it come to BP and cholesterol. I have replaced the oil on my air-pooped popcorn with water! It seems weird, but if you spray on water using a plastic food-friendly spray bottle you can sprinkle your toppings on (nutritional yeast, garlic, onion, cumin are my favourite) and they'll stay on and it will be delicious!
Clear information - and I love the fact that food can be used as Medicine - and there is no doubt that a whole food plant based diet super low in oil can heal the bodymind together with exercise 💚🍀 and dont forget your B12
Love from sweden 🇸🇪🌍❤️🍓😘
😁 Love from Colorado, USA!!
And love from New York, USA!!! 🇺🇸
💚 from Germany 🇩🇪 😎✌
These two on a vegan diet look so trim and fit. It add years to a person's life.
Just found this channel. Have you guys touched on the topic of fibroids as yet??? If not, I think you should. It's beginning to be a heavy issue in the female community, more so, the blacks... Love your channel!!!
I have been listening to your interviews regularly last time, especially everything related to lowering cholesterol. You never mention red yeast rice as a supplement. Is it a healthy way to lower your cholesterol in order to avoid statins? Next to eating plant based food, naturally.
Just an anecdote, but until recently, I relied on b12 from occasional fortified foods - and I’ve been vegan for 16 years! And no other supplements! In fact, I haven’t taken as much as an aspirin in over a decade! But I’m now taking b12, better safe than sorry, vegan or not. Why am I telling you this? Well, because many vegans, and non vegans, believe you have to take supplements to “maintain a vegan diet”, which is absolutely not true. But yea just take a b12, it’s dirt cheap.
Dr Barnard addresses this and more in the video. Some people may need vitamin D or iodine, as he says.
Great!! Loved to hear it!! People should share those kind of experience
Humans (meat eaters and vegans alike) should take B12, D3 and Iodine supplements pretty much daily.
I found out the really hard way!
I would go as far to say it is detrimental.
Especially here in Europe 90% of my friends have thyroid problems....and I almost did too!!!!!! 🙈 that's why I now take 150-300ug Iodine daily too.
If you need to supplement then something is missing in a vegan diet
may I ask what brand you take daily?
I have a question about eating a plant based diet and gout. Legumes shouldn't be eaten too much when you're a gout patient, right? What would be the best plant based diet for people who have problems with gout?
Do you have any preferences for vitamin D, ( liquid or tablet ) and should vitamin D be taken year round?
I have a question, I have heart problems and have a STENT implant. I've change from meaty eating to mostly veges,rice, beans, chicken breast and fish. MY PROBLEM IS I have high blood pressure and do intermittent fasting but my blood pressure goes skyrocket while fasting. ALWAYS WHILE I STAY AWAY FROM FOOD FOR MORE THAN 8 HRS PRESSURE IS HIGH??
The ONLY supplement needed is B12, that’s all I’ve used in the 37 years of being a v healthy and fit Wholefood Vegan! Poppyseed is rich in Iodine, also good for Copper, Zinc, Magnesium etc.
this was a great interview with lots of great advice. And on the subject of where will animals go if we dont use them for food?..someone said that if the animals arent needed for food etc..then eventually there will be no need for them to be born at all?..thats sad...i wonder what others think? thanks from UK
The animals that we see are selectively bred mutations, especially virtually hair free pigs. This won't happen in our lifetimes, and there will always be animals in the fields for one reason or another. Hopefully more sanctuaries than exploiting industries 😊🐾🌱
Dr. Barnard, no coconut oil? Why? That's the only oil i buy after switching from extra virgin olive oil. I love your channel. Thank you.
Coconut oil contains saturated fats.
@@soilikasanen I see, better go back to extra virgin olive oil then. Thank you.
@@monikapastor1958 Or even better - to use chia, hemp and flax seeds, and walnuts : )
@@monikapastor1958 The saturated fat in coconut oil risks heart disease in vegans. I prefer eating whole olives rather than olive oil.
@@davidthescottishvegan thank you David. It’s hard to keep track, what was god last year, no longer true this year. I do add flax seeds into my salads now. What do you use for cooking (oil)?
Processed foods are addictive. The idea of eating in moderation is wishful thinking.
Totally true! I have experienced this with (whole wheat) bread in particular. Hard to stop eating it
💯% agree!
Hi Chuck, how can I put my question? I have followed Dr Barnard vegan diet for just more than 6 months now. But I have a question to ask for Dr Barnard to help me with my issue. Please let me know how can I get my question to you on the show? Thank you. Mui Len from Australia.
I If a take nutritionnel in we have b12 inside, on the package for 2 tbsp is write 500%. if i take 1 tbs par day, and milk soya, i need a complement ?? Because normaly i have a good dose with mlk and nutritionnel
Hello folks! What would you recommend for a person having already 1 month on a plant based diet and as a result lowering to a normal range the systolic BP but still having a over 80 diastolic BP, even though they take medication for this condition? At the beginning of the said month total cholesterol was 220....They plan to maintain this lifestyle for at least 3 months before new blood tests. Also i could mention that erectile dysfunction is greatly improved already.
Stay the course ✌
Please can you help. What is the best bioavailable source of ZINC for a vegan ?
I take 500mcg of vitamin b12 every other day.. is it fine?? Thanks! More power Chuck!! Love this podcast!
Yes you do not need much
Take 500mcg daily - if u miss 1 or 2 not a big deal.
Eat a half of the tablet. everyday. if you miss one day or 2, 3 nothing to worry about!
Why would we need supplements if we can fortified oat milk with B12 in it, or Marmite (I'm from the UK). I get my vitamin D from the brown mushrooms we can buy here, and it's also in oat milk which I have every day in porridge and tea. I don't feel run down, so my iodine levels seem normal. Beans, spinach, and lentils are mostly where I get iron, and I get iodine from wholegrains, green beans, courgettes, etc. I'm coming up to seven years mostly plant-based now. I feel terrific.
Should I be supplementing with omega 3s?
Thank you for the advice re peanut butter. I had no idea and luckily the one in my cupboard is just peanuts and nothing else. :)
I am on statins and also following Neal's advice re diet. I do NOT like the idea that statins stop the production of cholesterol so much so that other functions in the body cannot occur.
My son all-day in sun 🌞 but d3 is low so doctor give supervision
when you take B12 is non gmo better ?
Omega 3 dha epa is way more noticeable than ALA alone. And that's coming from someone that was getting more than 10g of ALA a day for several years.
I notice in the Dean Ornish AD study that he is giving his participants.....Multivitamin, fish oil, curcumin, vitamin C, B12, CoQ10, lion's mane, probiotic, and magnesium.Other than B12 and possibly curcumin, I wonder if there might be any advantage to taking any of the other supplements? Thanks.
Can you do a video on.a WFPB lifestyle and type 2 diabetes and renal disease. That is probably 2 videos.(I don't like using the word "diet"...i think it has a negative energy influence that limits people from reaching dietary goals)
Thank you
Oil 15:00
Thank you I came here for this
I have a question I’m new to the plant based diet, and I don’t eat avocados or nuts because I am trying to lose weight, do I need to drink algae omega supplements to obtain the healthy fats that I need ?
Well..... you can eat Avocado and nuts, just less.
Trust me 🙏 been doing this for a long time.
Let me start by giving this piece of advice.
Your diet shouldn't just be something you do for a certain amount of time, to lose weight.
....but I understand trying to turbo the weightloss 😅
However, you can eat 1/4 or 1/2 Avocado per day, and you'll still be fine.
As for nuts, eat only ever just a Hand full.
Do this for YEARS 😁 ....forever!
I lost 20 lbs in 2 weeks following a WFPB diet - eating Avocado and nuts. Fat still melts off.
Just also avoid all flour products.
No more food after 6pm
Get into good habits - for a lifetime.
You'll still lose the weight 👍
@@adorable3817 I can’t seem to get off the crackers before bedtime, like around 10 pm..do you have any advice??
I have restless legs syndrome and was told that supplementing with iron can help. For those with RLS, is supplementing with iron safe/advised?
Finnish doctor found out that the root cause of restless legs is hypoxia. So, enhancing the blood flow by lifestyle that is beneficial to glycocalyx and eNOS, is a cure 😊 Dr Dean Ornish, Campbell Esselstyn, Michael Greger and Baxter Montgomery (also) know how.
@@soilikasanen , I appreciate you taking the time to post this. I am a huge fan Esselsyn and Greger. I started with googling their names and restless legs syndrome. Got nothing. Tried the other 2 (Ornish and Montgomery) . Unfortunately, nothing. Not sure how you found these links. Do you know the name of the Finnish doctor? Would love to see his research. Thanks, again.
@@kellys5442 Sorry, I wasn't clear with my answer. I ment: When most scientist try to make new pharmacological or diagnostic implications for managing diseases, these doctors I mentioned, know how to restore blood flow ( and diminish hypoxia) also in those tinyest vessels (called vasa nervorum). WFPBD, stress management etc. Also, endocronologist Zach Bush has a video about a 4min easy exercise, which boosts the release of nitric oxide (NO). Some medications can have adverse effects to blood flow. Sure, I can link that study tomorrow 🙂
@@soilikasanen , you're awesome! Thank you!

How often b12 shall be taken?
Doctor Barnard talked about palm oil in peanut butter. This is where label reading helps us. Many peanut butters are full of palm oil. DO NOT BUY. Avoid these. Some peanut butters are just ground peanuts and a bit of salt. These are fine. Look for these. (Peanut butter is still a high calorie food with a lot of oil. Don't eat massive amounts of it.) Look for peanut butter made from just ground peanuts. Avoid anything with palm oil.
Yes, carbs have 4 calories per gm and animal fats and proteins have 9 calories per gm. The difference is you still have to eat the same amount so you eat an enormous amount of vegetable matter compared to animal matter. That's the difference. Carnivores only eat once a day. How many times do vegans eat?
He talks about pure sugar having 4gms but they're empty calories, they are no good for you at all. All vegetable matter contain carbs, flour, rice, potatoes are all carbs.
OMG CHUCK! ❤️Thank you for answering my question on animal habitation!!😂
HI. MY DOCTOR JUST TOLD ME TO TAKE CALCIUM BECAUSE OF MY BONE TEST? HOW MUCH SHOULD I TAKE?
one question when you say no oils do you include olive oil, sunflower oil?
no oil is no oil. lol

Hello Doctor!
I am using thyronom for hypothyroidism from past 11 years. I am a vegan, yet my TSH numbers are not good. Where am I going wrong?
Thanks!
Are you taking iodine?
@@adorable3817 No. But iodized salt I consume
Hi, I wanted to ask if omega 3 oil is not good for men than what about cod liver oil, I'm a parent of a 17 yr old son who I give h I m and my daughter fish oil for children when they were 12 and when I was a small kid , my parents give us a teaspoon of cod liver oil every day before school, we never catch colds or got sick from school. So I would like to know then when my son turn 18, omega 3 is not good for men? Then what is another option to making sure he's getting DHA and EPA for good brain health.
b6 and b12 is in banana skin too.
@Mia Li Yes, in fact it's been eaten for many years by native populations. They taste best when more green than yellow (yellow is sweeter). Check Chef Jana's channel for some tasty recipes!
I love this podcast and Podcaster- Chuck Carroll. I am learning so much. Than you. I give you 5 stars for these podcasts . Love it Love it. My problem is getting my blood pressure. I have been on this plant base diet for three months.
Have you eliminated ALL animal AND processed foods AND high-fat plants (like avocado, nuts and seeds, durian)?
@@daraghosullivan1157 Chia seeds/ flax seeds/hemp seeds and walnuts are healthy and a great sources of Omega-3, which is essential.
Check colour of your urine. Drink so much water that it's only slightly yellow. Minimize salt. Blood pressure also raises during stress (for what ever reason) and pain (which is stress).
New to vegan diet just ordered a vegan multi vitamin from Amazon and it has 50mcg of b12 in is this safe
Try NutritionFacts dot org also - they have a series on vitamin B12. You need B12 no matter how perfect your vegan diet is. I just think that they said B12 is best absorbed as a separate tablet, meaning that it doesn't really work to get it as part of a multivitamin. Dr Barnard has emphasized B12 and 2000 micrograms vitamin D as a must for all vegans.
Sorry, meant to say 2000 IU of vitamin D (IU= International Units)
It is - just the right amount 🙂
Don't even bother with multi vitamins. they don't work. and on the contrary mv's contain vitamin A aswell, which is really bad for health in supplement form.
Aren't moderate amounts of avocado and virgin olive oil good for you?
thanks for sharing... from vet vegan:)))
👍🌱🙏
Are cruciforous vegetables bad for hypo tyroid
No, on the contrary🙂 Check out Dr. Greger's Nutrition.Facts.Org about that subject.
Make sure your iodine intake is 150 micrograms and you should be okay.
@@laurieparis2203 Excellent remark! If seaweeds are the source, 400-600 ug iodine/day (micrograms) is even better. The amount doesn't need to be the same every day, but even occasionally 2000 ug =2 mg should not be exceeded.
@@soilikasanen I find that 300 ug is like the sweet spot
@@carnistpolice Yes. Our bodies can regulate the absorption from food (seaweeds) and that's why amount derived from them can be higher. I don't recommend over 600 ug doses of iodine keeping intake it in acceptable limits.
I heard flaxseed were highly estrogenic
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We aren't plants so phyto-estrogens don't affect us
17:38 My doctor couldn't care less about why my iron is low. She just said to take iron supplements. That's it.
morning star breakfast links contain EGG WHITES!
So are we supposed to buy SODIUM in some form to add to our cooking? he didn’t explain how/where to get it!...
Take 300g Himalaya salt crystals (the larger the better), add 1 Liter well water - and let stand for 16-24 hours.
Add 1 teaspoon of this salt water to small glass of water - Kind of like a large shot glass.
Drink on empty stomach first thing in the morning.
I follow a WFPB diet, eating absolutely NO processed foods - so I also don't get enough sodium from my diet.
😎✌
How long does it take on a whole food plant based diet to see a drop in cholesterol.
I’ve seen documentaries (like PlantPure Nation) where 10 days caused a good decrease.
Thank you
Information is interesting, but I have to disagree on coconut in its natural form. Coming from the tropics its been consumed for many eons. Not to forget if it was bad for you our creator would not have made it.
Japan has a rich culture of eating Pork and seafood.
Yet they are rarely obese. I'm not advertising eating pork and seafood btw.
@@rebelraccoon9018 Exactly my point. Though Japan has a low consumption of processed foods and wheat(with a preference for rice). There are multiple factors at play which from a scientific prespective makes it harder to give one a negative or positive value.
Now they eat a lot of seafood, pork, and chicken but years ago those foods were too expensive so only rich Japanese ate a lot. I also used to watch what elderly bought and their carts had mostly veggies. I miss buying fresh tofu!
@@rebelraccoon9018 No this has changed. Obesity is common in Japan now. When I lived there in 2000 impossible to buy plus sizes. Then plus size= American 10 dress. Now I can buy plus sizes easily. Even walking around I see chubbies. They used to be very thin, but with introduction of fast food, milk, cheese, ultraprocessed foods obesity is not far behind.
@@happycook6737 Japan has had access to milk and cheese for a while. I agree on the processed foods though, no good can come out of eating that crap.Japan did have a brief dip in pork consumption however it bounced back very quickly post war. Everytime a society starts frequently consuming processed foods(whether meats or carbs) they get fat and sick.
I don't wish to be argumentative but what he says about arsenic isn't really right, in India and Pakistan some of the rice is high arsenic and in America a lot of the rice is high arsenic because of pesticides used in the past. Also what is lacking is the proven benefits of very low oil diets, what does it mean in terms of lifespan or cardiovascular health. Not comparing American junk food but with healthy high-fat or healthy low-fat, I don't know but it would be interesting if there was more data
One thing I noticed with no salt or little salt people is their neck girth gets as small as their wrist, lol. Then maybe from lack of oils ...their voices become dry and raspy. Maybe a little coconut oil, flax oil or just increase the amount of walnuts. I notice when I put nuts in a grinder they stick to the side and when I scrape them out they are stuck together and oily. So nice to know I am getting fresh nut oil this way. You can't be a dry voiced non oil person and be a professional singer.
Remember this before you listen to this doctor. Two thirds of your brain is fat. Not to mention your skin and liver.
@@toni4729 interesting thought.
"Some people are taking the 1950s prescription"
The best half an hour in the world 🤓🎓🖤
Why would you want to live on no fat at all when you're brain is two thirds fat.
@@toni4729 go and watch Sherzai's interviews please
@@mikigiusti1239 So? He goes on about demetia but he what is it caused by? It's not caused by Meat and fat. We've been eating that since we creawled out of the trees and started fighting for it and fishing. We didn't suffer dimentia until the past hundred years or so.
And why? Think about it. We've been eating sugar, the stuff that we never ever ate until the slave trade brought it back from the West Indies. Potoatoes came back from South America, Rice from the East. We've never ever had so much sugar and carbs in our diet in our lives. And now, it's got a whole load of chemicals added to it with colours and flavours and preservatives and this wonderful doctor of yours is blaming on the meat and fish that we've been eating since the beginning of time. THANK YOU SIR, OR MADAM.
I have been Whole Food Plant-Based no oil or vegan butter or faux cheese or cashew cream for years. I even gave up guacamole and hummus. But I didn't lose weight almost at all until I started doing Dr. Greger's 21 tweaks. I had such bad blood sugar spikes that I would eat 7 cups of potato and broccoli soup for dinner and still feel like I was starving and then have rebound hunger 2 hours later. The apple cider vinegar and the other spices and amla have changed my life. Three years into this process, without really changing what I eat, I am now losing 2 or 3 pounds per week. 2 or 3 pounds per week almost 3 years into this diet after not losing weight that whole time. I suddenly LOVE amla and apple cider vinegar and garlic and black cumin and whatever else was on the list.
Did you get this information from reading how not to diet?
B12 is in nutrition yeast in abundance...
Nutritional Yeast only has B12 if the particular brand you are using is fortified with B12. If it is fortified, the packaging will so indicate.
chemical supplements fills only some gap, the only way to guarantee that children adsorb all the nutrients that they need is to feed them meat and dairy products. Luci Daniels, a pediatric dietitian and former chairwomen of the British Dietetic Association , says. It is unsurprising that adding meat to a child's diet improves their development.
That's the only way anybody can get adequate nutrition.
@@granddaddyofthemall6320 Ridiculous.
Test
Dr. Neal looking emaciated
His views concerning carbs intake and body wt control are too simplistic. It's not just about calories❗
Our brain is two thirds fat and twenty percent cholesterol. In my opinion this man is off his head. Listen to Dr. Georgia Ede and Dr. Zoe Harcombe. They have a few things to say.
@@toni4729 All vegan are off their heads.
@@granddaddyofthemall6320 Thanks for noticing.
@Mia Li While your good doctor sits and looks the public in the face and tells blatant lies I will never leave it alone. Have a nice day. Vegans have been around only since the 1960s and they can't prove a word they sprout.
@@toni4729 I sense that you're in a cult, kid
Healthy carbs are not rice and beans, but 9 cups of greens. THAT is healthy carbs
Wow carnivores need none
Not true. Our soil is depleted. So animals are not getting the bacteria in the soil.
@@joelleaittama1416 I know carnivores that are deficient in Vitamin D, Calcium ( the main reason osteoporosis exists) and Iron and other vitamins and minerals that carnivores claim vegans will be deficient in.
@@davidthescottishvegan If a carnivore is eating red meat they can't be deficient in iron.
@@granddaddyofthemall6320 It might be true but Vitamin C is needed to asborb it. There's been independent research done by non biased scientists and they tested carnivores, vegetarians and vegans for the amount of iron they had and the results showed vegans had high intake of iron than both vegetarians and carnivores.
@@davidthescottishvegan Vitamin C is in liver. You must not know what you are talking about. Vegans and vegetarians suffer more from anemia than anybody.
What are you talking about doctor???? To take supplements like vitamin B12?? B12 you get it from fish, chicken etc you preach that animal products are bad for our body but yet you need B12 as a vegan
If you're a vegan then you don't get it from fish or chicken. There are some healthy fiber-rich cereals that are fortified with vitamin B12. For instance a small serving of All-bran provides 25% of the RDA...
@@hr0201 : Also, nutritional yeast, fortified plant-based milk (Silk: Almond/Coconut Beverage being my favourite).
@@hr0201 what I was trying to say it's from supplements you don't get what you get from real products. How can doctor say that animal products are not healthy when our grandparents lived with them especially in countryside what you have around the house is chicken, pigs, cow.....We are in 2021 and these are not good anymore, plant based diet - that's why our grandparents lived longer and our day at age 34 46 50 people die. Don't you find this a little bit weird???I bet after his speech the doctor had a nice meat meal.
@@DC-sy5qb It may also be that your grandparents were not exposed to as much chemicals as we are today.
@@DC-sy5qb that may be true about our grandparents living longer. However, these days there are more chemicals put in animal products, and it is not healthy for us.
why does the doctor look so emancipated if he knows what to eat???
The body needs all fats and so does the brain.
Well, you live on the sugar and your teeth can fall out and we'll live on the meat. You go without fats and serve your brain (which is two thirds fat) and I'll keep my brain.
Okay caveman
There are 8.7 million species of omnivores. When they can get just one of those 8.7 million to convert to a herbivore vegan type diet with long term success then they can try it on humans last, not humans first.
@@beepbeepnj2658 I don't care what you eat, you live on another living thing and that living thing lives on another living thing. That's the only way humanity has ever survived. Good luck if you can think of any other way.
@@beepbeepnj2658 BTW, I think you meant Billion and you're quite wrong.
@@toni4729 Read again carefully. There are 8.7 million animal species that are omnivores. When humans can get them first, to switch to a vegan herbivore diet with long term success, then they can contact me and all the other 8 Billion humans and try to get them to go vegan. But first try on animals first not humans first. I see they are trying this experiment on humans first and I am against that.
Taking advice from this Dr. is straight up dangerous.
Quack
