  • Nimai Delgado discusses how he used his mechanical engineering background to optimize his health by choosing the right fuel for optimal human performance and became an elite professional bodybuilder on a fully plant based diet.
    What is most shocking, is that Nimai has never eaten any meat in his life. He was raised in a Hindu farm community in Mississippi and describes how his unique childhood experiences shaped his perspective on life. Nimai has gone against the grain his entire life and learned some interesting lessons we can all apply to increase health, performance, longevity and benefit the environment.

    I'm a 64 year old woman who just found your amazing presentation and I thank you for it! I became vegan 11 years ago, vegetarian before that for about 15 and my health is excellent overall. I've just started going to the gym to put a little 'curve' to my skinny arms and I feel fantastic! Feeling so strong and healthy at my age is an amazing achievement I think, especially in an era of potential lower lifespans for kids my grandchildren's age!
    So thanks for the fabulous video and I'm going to be sharing it around because you did such a beautiful, low key job of presenting the facts on EVERYTHING. Thank you and God bless!

These diets are appropriate for all stages of the life cycle, including pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood, adolescence, older adulthood, and for athletes. Plant-based diets are more environmentally sustainable than diets rich in animal products because they use fewer natural resources and are associated with much less environmental damage.

    Dairy intolerance is completely natural. All mammals are supposed to consume their mother's milk from birth until they are old enough that they do not need it any longer. Humans included. During this time in which they are consuming their mother's milk, they are consuming quite a lot of it. Infant mammals are born with the ability to produce an enzyme which is specific to digesting their mother's milk. Their mother's milk, likewise, also contains some of these enzymes, but also many other nutrients which a growing mammal needs, specific to the species. The mother's body, through the nipples, can adjust it's contents depending on the 'feedback' it receives via the infant's saliva. Now, after an infant mammal has stopped consuming its mother's milk, the body no longer has any need to produce this enzyme and it will stop producing it. Not all at once, but slowly over time, and there is no known way to stimulate the body to produce this enzyme again; once the body reduces production of it, that's it, there's no going back. Most culture around the world do not consume animal milks, and those that do consume very small quantities of it, mostly in the form of fermented milk products, i.e. cheeses etc., which are easier to digest than the milk which they were made from. Now, if someone never in their life consumed any dairy after they stopped consuming mother's milk, they would produce either very little or none of this enzyme being produced compared to those cultures who continue into adulthood to consume varying amounts of milk from other animals. So, if you have the occasional ice-cream or cheese or yogourt etc. you likely stimulating a small amount of production of this enzyme and still produce enough of it along with the fact that the product you are consuming has only a small percentage of actual dairy in there, that you will not notice anything. But one day, you might, for whatever reason, decide as an adult to drink a whole large glass of milk, then suddenly notice digestive discomfort as you cannot any-longer digest such large quantities. The dairy industry likes to call this "lactose intolerance" and has influenced the medical establishment in certain countries to use this phrase because that makes it seem like you have some kind of medical condition or problem, but in reality, it is perfectly natural; a perfectly natural part of being a mammal, and being a human as we do not require milk once past the suckling stage. I learnt this from a Russian scientist I met who lived in the same building as i did at the time, and he was very surprised that I did not already know this. I, on the other hand, was shocked at the information as it went against not only my culture, but everything I had been told about consuming the milk of other animals, which, looking back on it, should have been quite obvious, as, why on Earth would one animal be dependent on the milk of other animals -- it makes no sense; especially when we must remove their infant in order to take the milk which was for its consumption. Seems to blatantly obvious to me now, but back then, I never questioned it as it was just the way things were.

      Many northern Europeans have no problem digesting fresh milk. I for one eat a lot of dairy and have no issues at 55 y.o. A lot of people who have problems with milk have candidiasis and lack the probiotics to digest it. That's the result of a medical industry that recklessly prescribes antibiotics to a sugar and carb loaded society. Yeast (Candida) loves sugar and starch. Another problem with modern milk is that it contains casein A1 which causes inflammation. Two thousand years ago or more there was only casein A2. Modern herds of Holsteins produce only the more harmful casein A1 type.

    What an excellent, succinct, informative speaker! This is by far one of the most excellent speeches ever heard in my lifetime anywhere in the world at the highest intellectual institutions, compounded by the immense positive impacts of applying what he teaches. Kudos, one of the most meaningful career paths you could have ever chosen. Thank you, you are saving lives and planet. Will be saving and sharing this talk widely for the rest of my days. It is solidly science-backed, containing some irrefutable, perennial truths. Blessings to your parents for doing a great job, and to you for getting it. ♡
    Btw, the official name of the UN Specialized Agency you cited is the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), headquartered in Rome, Italy.
    Also, a natural vegan source of vitamin B12 is nutritional yeast, that can be added to virtually any meal or drink, and actually has a pleasant cheesy or miso broth flavour.
    Finally, for those doing Keto, there are some very good Keto Vegan recipes throughout the internet and youtube. One very good youtube channel for this is called "Heavenly Fan," with Vegan Keto versions of just about any food you could crave. However, a big part of this lifestyle change is to cease craving unhealthy foods altogether, and start developing a palate for foods you know are good for you and the planet.
    I will never forget that one of the most prominent, highly awarded environmental conservation scientists globally, in his parting retirement speech at one of the world's top conservation congresses, gave the message that veganism was the top action humanity could adopt to save the planet from climate change, and a series of other scourges, besides being more humane. That was his number one message of departure to the world today: Go Vegan.
    Namaskar 🙏☀️

I have been over consuming and eating meat and junk food my whole life. I have had a lot of healthy fruits and salad and nuts but it has never been consistent.

    We cook a soaked mix of all of those in the pressure cooker, then we get a more tolerable protein, than what is available in meat. The taste of meat is slowly being copied with extracts from roots. The hemoglobin taste will come from plant roots, when they are on the market.

    Just putting this out there, since there is so much misinformation regarding eating plant-based.
    This is a quote from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics; which is the largest organisation on nutritional research in the world, wit over 100.000 certified nutritionists, dietiticians and researchers, and this is what they have to say about a whole foods plant based vegan diet:
    "It is the position of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics that appropriately planned vegetarian, including vegan, diets are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits for the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. These diets are appropriate for all stages of the life cycle, including pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood, adolescence, older adulthood, and for athletes. Plant-based diets are more environmentally sustainable than diets rich in animal products because they use fewer natural resources and are associated with much less environmental damage. Vegetarians and vegans are at reduced risk of certain health conditions, including ischemic heart disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, certain types of cancer, and obesity."
