I'm vegan for the animals and the planet, I'm whole food plant based for my health!
Me too! I went Vegan for my health but stayed for the planet and animals. however, I am raw vegan. It's just easier because I have sensitivity to grains and nightshades and it makes me feel the best. I don't have a problem with calories intake and I hit most all my RDI numbers with food. But I still take a vitamin. Listen to your body.
Wrong The first and the latter Both wrong It always takes killing to eat
@@katrienopsomer8012 you are right but wrong. Everything on our planet has life force energry. The difference is when you eat an animal there life force energy leaves with death. When you kill a plant or cut down a tree for a door it will still contain the life force energy. The real problem is The planet is dying and needs major change. Which will happen even if you are resistent. So it doesn't really matter what you think or I just keep your eyes open and watch the earth try to save it's self. 😉 Namaste
For your health you ? If you knew antinutrients science you wont be vegan that a fact.
@@peggygibson28 grains Is a gut Buster and nighshade áre toxic, i am starting to think you actually dont listen to your body,eat some bacon for earth sake.
Vegan for 24 Years, nice and healthy.
Dave Vinci nice I only lasted 3 months and felt like shit
@@IEEteammateMATT1 eating enough?
Jo Woo I tried to get 4000 calories in a day. And I was still losing weight like crazy. I couldn’t digest the plants anymore. I had full on green pieces of plant matter in my stool
@@IEEteammateMATT1 what kind of foods were you eating?
Jo Woo brown rice, sweet potatoes, beans of all types, kale, broccoli, pretty much lots of vegetables and brown rice. Barely any fruit
Okay so I switched to a plant based Whole Foods diet and my resting heart rate went from 100 - 101 to about between 72 to 60. It’s the best decision I’ve ever made in my life.
Whoaaaaaa. The same thing happened to me! When I donated blood and got my heart rate checked it was in the 60's. I was floored and so excited!!!!! My heart rate was never this low in my life. It would typically be 92ish. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Same here. Every time I went to the Dr my blood pressure read high.
She said we need to get you on meds. I had seen my parents go down the med option and needed to be on for life with added meds to control side effects.
I said no! I'm finding an alternative route, to which she said "My dear, you are a ticking time bomb!".
I researched and discovered that a meat rich diet could lead to heart problems.
Went cold Turkey (pardon the pun) and ditched meat products and cheese and butter.
Blood pressure dropped to normal within 3 months.
I had to record it on a monitor for 2 weeks and take it to the Dr before she would believe me 🤣.
I'm not vegan but my resting hearth rate is about 55
@@rickardrehnmark1650 good for you.
My resting heart rate is 65 and I eat mostly meat...
I was getting really confused lately because of all the you tube videos and was questioning my decision to go plant based even though I have never felt better in my life. Thank you so much for making this video I needed to see this.
I believe a lot of it is deliberately designed by big animal ag to counter vegan truths
“I did it because of science.” Yes! This is the only reason I went vegan in the first place, proper research and education is so key.
🙌🏻
Animals tho
@Pieter Jan Zijlstra why do you even comment all you do is exposing yr lack of knowledge don't even bother about yr lack of sense 🐒
Pieter Jan Zijlstra I’ve looked at both sides, because I desperately wanted an excuse to eat nostalgically, but all I found was tradition.... the passing down of habits, than It say anything about eating animal products is healthy. Never use just one source, and make sure the source you’re using can hold well under pressure( their sources are credible and the experiment is sound).

I was vegetarian for 18 years and absolutely no way as healthy as when I became vegan. I chose to stop the suffering of the innocent and moat vulnerable. I am 60 years old and I'm shocked at how healthy I feel and the compliments I receive regarding my health. It's such a surprise to me. I didn't think about my health when I went Vegan and I don't believe that's stupid - I believe that's ethical also take a good look at the number of extremely sick non vegans there are - it's a high percentage so obviously there's something wrong that non vegans are ignoring and laughing off. It's not funny to be sick and obiest and living of pharmaceutical drugs. I do not take any pharmaceutical drugs. I rarely take suppliments. I do use nutrional yeast which has b12 in it. Vegan is for the animals where's as these people making stupid videos about 'why I'm no longer Vegan' - they were Not Vegan - they were plant based for a fad.
Stop lying to yourself.
I had the same experience myself. I feel there is a significant difference between being vegan and vegetarian.
my health progressed eating paleo with some cheese. Good luck to you! This is no science
Vegan for 4 years. Now 65 (female). I agree with you Ava. I can't believe how fabulous I feel. And I did it for the Animals only. Never in my wildest dreams would I have known how much my health was going to improve. It's life changing.
Completely agree. Being vegan is a change in belief - primarily. When people go back to eating meat, they never changed their belief (that abstaining from meat and dairy is actually healthier and better than eating meat and dairy). There is a core belief that must be unshakable. Shallow people try vegan for a while. People that change their beliefs within to the positive and towards more honesty never go back to fear or selfish thinking. That’s REAL growth.
Had been plant based for nearly a decade. Had to acknowledge the dogmatism I had fully been indoctrinated into. Unfortunately had mounting mouth issues, including a rotted out tooth and oral thrush. Digestive issues including abdominal pain (sometimes severe) loose stool, and going 5 times a day. Also depression, anxiety, low energy and concentration issue. I find this video extremely downgrading, most people are having more issues than zits and bloating. To be clear, I love to cook from scratch, more than most. My diet had been full of beans, legumes, lentils, brown rice, tofu, tempeh, sweet potatoes, avocados, lots of leafy greens, morning fruit smoothies, lots of nuts etc... I also just couldn't stand constantly supporting the pharmaceutical industry and justifying my food being flown in from all over the world.
An unnatural depopulation diet.. They are saving the planet ;)
So you were a vegan, or still are? Not clear on what you’ve said here. Thx.
@@Mike-nq3lq I was vegan/ plant based, currently omnivore.

Who wants to see Dr. Garth Davis on the Joe Rogan podcast?
Rogan would never go for it, he is anti vegan and wouldn't like to be embarrassed.
Rogan couldn't win against facts 🙏🔥🔥
This would be bloody awesome!
Rogan would get SERVED by Dr. Garth. ❤️🌱✌🏻
That Kahn/Kresser trainwreck probably ruined our chances of seeing another debate on Rogan. I hope i'm wrong, Garth is the man for the task
A millennial that got a zit during a juice fast lmao 😂😂😂😂 Garth on FIRE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sounds like a great doctor with a lot of sympathy for his patients' problems, doesn't he? What a joke.

You'd rather have a doctor lie to you?
You do know that the corporations lobbied the US government to get obesity classified as a disease right?
Obesity is now a disease and not something that is caused by the overconsumption of food.
That's what the corporations did. Here is a doctor trying to tell the truth and you have a problem with that.
You must be a 400 pounder blaming the goddamn fork for your problems. And not the fact that you're shoving chili down your pie hole everyday.
Just sayin.
@@jiakabery3550 You can tell the truth without creating a needless strawman that insults people in the process. "Stopped being vegan because they got a zit on a juice cleanse" isn't "truth." It's dismissive.

I'm a millenial and vegan. I'm doing perfectly fine. It took me a bit of time to figure out what works for me, and I'm actually still learning. I found it helpful to reach out to other vegans who've been vegan for years to help me.
I went vegan 3 years ago, it was supposed to be a challenge I gave myself for a month. During that month, I started researching veganism (everything from animal farming, the environment to health benefits, all the pros and cons) and one evening I just came to the conclusion that from then on I was not going to just stick to the diet for good but actually become 99% vegan (I still eat mussels occasionally but not as keenly as I used to). I'm not vegan for health or for the planet, or for the animals, I'm vegan for all of these reasons combined. It just makes sense.
The way I see it... once a (true)vegan, always a vegan.
I will never go back to eating animal products.
Someone that can be so easily swayed back to eating animals again would never do that if they were truly vegan in the first place. ✌️🌱🐰💪 #studythescience
I would think that, too. However, I was a vegan for ethical reasons about 25 years ago or more. Watched a Donahue show with Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz talk about John Robbins' book Diet for a New America which I went and bought and read and became vegan as a result. I was about 30. Went through a pregnancy and a few more years of eating vegan and at some point I started shopping at "health food" stores where they sold "humane" animal products and I began to eat a few here and there and then eventually ate more, but still only from those "humane" sources. Fooling myself I think, forgetting the horror I had read about and seen in videos. I just really lost sight of why I was vegan after a while. Then about 4 years ago as I was recovering from some surgery I was surfing the internet and came across Gary Yurovskys best speech ever (which has changed since then) but when I saw those images again of the calves in the dairy industry I said, no wait, I bawled," Never again!" I can't do this again! I cannot support this cruelty!" and so here I am 4 years later still vegan and planning to remain so for the rest of my life. As many vegans will say, we do the best we can do at any time to cause the least amount of harm to animals. We are not always perfectly able to but we sure try real hard! I'm going to be real honest and say that I know many true vegans who are vegan for the animals, but have eaten an animal product here or there over their many years of not. I know some vegans who still wear their leather shoes they got before they became vegan because they cannot afford new shoes yet....we need to not be too quick to judge others. This is the thing that causes carnivores to not like us. This feeling that we think of ourselves as better than people who eat meat and animal products. People need to be allowed to travel their journey their own way. Also, it is much easier to eat vegan now than it was 27 years ago as far as all the ready made choices and substitutes we have now. I like to be grateful for any time a person chooses to eat/dress less cruelly even if not all the time.
Really? There are some well known people who were vegan for 20 years and switched over to a high fat diet. I'll let you guess who they are.
Ehhh wrong... 🍗🥑🍌🍍it’s not about ethics. In the long run it’s about health. And like homeostasis it’s all about balance.... eat too much for too long of any diet and it’s bad for health... and they learn this when. They develop illnesses on the long run (as Carnivores illnesses learn too much meat 4 too long is not good either) because we are omnivores. That means we need both... not to die
Ricebunny Moon only obligate omnivores require both.
Burton Blazek what? 🤔 I suppose you are young and don’t know on your own flesh about ilnesses, because when you are young the body works well even with pebbles 😂, jaja after 25 whatever you give your body will show or become a disease
but humans are omnivores, and WE NEED BOTH, e.g. vitamin C from plants 🍋 🍊 to avoid scurvy, and b12 FROM meat 🍖🥩 to avoid nerve damage and our brand going to mush to not die in the long run.
I’m glad he knows it! Too many really don’t get it. Vegan for life.
weCuOUTder not to mention that vaccines contain bovine fluids and stuff. Lmao literally injecting themselves with bovine! But that’s none of my business. *sips tea*
Simon Naylor I see people continuously shaming ex-vegans for not researching enough or not going to enough doctors to look into their symptoms or not eating enough of a particular thing or not taking enough supplements, etc, etc. Shouldn’t the fact that it takes around-the-clock effort, planning, strategy, several months or years of research, numerous supplements, the guidance of health professionals, etc for some people to fully nourish themselves on a vegan diet show that the vegan diet may not be the best natural choice for the human body? What about people in other countries who don’t have access to the variety of plant-based food or supplements? What if people don’t have access to the information you have on knowing exactly what to eat? What if people don’t have health insurance to see doctors when they become sick on vegan diets? If it’s so easy to go malnourished on a vegan diet, it leads me to believe that humans are omnivores after all....I always see vegans saying “It’s not the vegan diet that made you sick, it’s because you didn’t eat this and this and this and that or because you didn’t take these supplements or research that, this and this.” I don’t see people on standard diets going malnourished from making a couple wrong decisions throughout week. It takes little to no effort to nourish myself and my kids on a standard diet. Sure, you can argue that too much meat and fat affects your health and heart, and I would even agree, but not malnourishment. I especially see problems with vegan parents trying to keep their vegan kids nourished and being shamed for giving up when their kids drop too much weight. I see a lot of vegan people in privileged countries trying hard to do all the right things, and then going malnourished and quitting after years of trying. To me, that’s a problem seeing as not all humans have access to the internet or resources that privileged people do. The fact that you have to be strategic and have all these resources in order to not starve, isn’t really showing others that this is the natural way for the human body. I don’t eat a lot of animal products and detest most meats but I don’t have to constantly think hard throughout the day at all and be strategic about my food choices in order not to become malnourished. That speaks volumes to me. On an a standard diet you can afford to skip meals or fast and not feel weak, sick or affected. When I observe friends and family on vegan diets, missing a meal or not abiding by the perfect vegan lifestyle blueprint, they become discolored, easily fatigued and complain of feeling weak or sick. You don’t see that with most actual herbivore animals. Many plant-eating animals can even go days without a food source and don’t need extra supplements to remain healthy or strong. When it comes to humans on vegan diets who are supposedly “herbivores” too, however, they can literally die or become sick from simply not sticking to a specific script... ESPECIALLY growing children. In my humble opinion, it just doesn’t seem like a lifestyle that the majority of population can sustain without your internet guides and an access to a variety of vegetables, nuts, fruits, oils, supplements, etc... especially for people in colder climates, hot or dry climates, poorer countries, counties that don’t participate in international trade of particular goods, villages who only farm a handful of produce or people who simply haven’t run into the research that you’ve encountered in your vegan journey. If so many vegan people have failed while being privileged and living in first world countries with access to so many resources... what does that say for the rest of us in the world who aren’t so privileged and lucky?
Millions of people can do it by using common sense. Vegan isn't a diet.
Simon Naylor What a pretentious, condescending response to assume people who have been vegan for several years and give up because of health issues simply don’t have “common sense.” It’s a lot deeper than that. No wonder so many are afraid to be truthful about their health issues because vegans constantly shame people, call them “murderers” or imply they are stupid. My sister’s family went vegan and she and her middle child drastically dropped under weight. She was already a thin woman to begin with and once she became vegan, she couldn’t keep on weight no matter what she tried. She went to nutritionists, vegan doctors, tried many times to manipulate her diet, increased her calories, etc to try to get her and her son’s weight back up. Having to add animal products back to her diet was one of the hardest decisions of her life and she became depressed about it but ultimately had to make a decision for her and her son’s health. It’s seriously disgusting to see so many people shaming others who run into health issues and have to change their lifestyle. It’s sad. My sister won’t even admit to people in the vegan community that she’s no longer vegan and I never understood that until today, going through all these vegan videos. I feel silly because I really didn’t know what she meant and tried to convince her that vegans would be understanding since she and her son are at dangerous weights. But now reading through the comments I know what she means and why she keeps it a secret.
Kam Bizzle You don’t stop being a vegan. Either you believe in principle of contributing to the unnecessary suffering, exploitation, use, harm, and death of animals for food, clothing, entertainment, experimentation, products, etc or you don’t. If you believe in that, you don’t change. The people who change were not vegan. They are plant based diets. You can’t be an ex-vegan.
If you have a problem with your plant based diet, find out what essential nutrient you are lacking and then get it from a plant-based source. There is nothing in animal products we can’t get from plants, besides things like dietary cholesterol that give us heart disease. Veganism isn’t the problem. People not understanding what vegan means, not understanding they can get every nutrient they need from plants, and people thinking killing exploiting and harming animals is necessary or ok is the problem.
Was vegan for 4 years. Ruined my health. No longer vegan. - cheers mate
Same here
I've also learned that "getting a zit while doing a juice fast" could be your body getting rid of toxins.
I love being vegan. I went vegan Oct 1, 2018 after watching Dr. Goldhamer talk about his work at True North Health center. I read The China Study that same month. It made the decision SO EASY! I don’t even see animal products as a food anymore.
Wow, I went vegan Oct 1st 2017 😍 same veg Bday 😉
@Carl Peterson huh? The longest lived communities in the world are 95% plant based. Where is your data showing that "starvation, chronic disease and premature death" await vegans? The science shows just the opposite.
Nice, they are not food. Dont forget about the sea. Not you but, I hate when people start the move away and keep eating sea cretures. There is no such thing as sea food unless you mean kelps. Thems cool animals that dont want to go in your mouth, im pretty sure.
Bm F oh absolutely! Half of the pollution in the ocean is from the fishing industry. Plus, over fishing has caused entire eco system to collapse!
No its not. It might be tough like stciking with the gym but its a lifestyle. if youre doing it becasue its cool or popular, you may drop it but if yure doing for the ethical reasons. there is no truning back. Were failable humans but its the same as if our society ate its babies and you suddenly realized eating babies is terrible but went back becasue it was easier.
its your perspective and whetehr youre doing it for selfish reasons. i was vegan 23 years ago and lived in a palce wehre soy milk was hard to get. remeber the dried powdres and little hippy owned health food stores that smalled like chamomile. @@danathebridgeisout6057.
The choices for foods and resaraunts today, its crazy easy unless you dont care. It as become easier every year. the strong mind wont be swayed and has done a lot of research. I still learn new stuff after 2 + decades. Its still exciting and I feel great about who I am.
Were all messed up people but dont confuse you not caring enough with it actually being hard. missing bbq's i not tough. Missing your moms meatballs, not tough. No pressure could make a began eat meat. if anything< i would drop a friend like nothing. Not trying to be mean. I just am .
Dr. Davis is THE man!
I'm vegan because of Health but mainly for all the critters who have as much right to life as humans. Just breaks my heart that cruelty towards animals is so acceptable.
same for the animals but i'm healthy too
so many humans ignore the animal suffering and label vegans 'arrogant' because
we give a voice to the voiceless. Thank you for who you are.
I love these kind of videos, Dr. Davis and several other doctors have taught me so much about nutrition and how horrible animal farming is. Thank you
Lmao vegetables and other things that vegans eat require farming, which requires the slaughter of every rabbit, squirrel, chipmunk, snake, turtle, ground hog, raccoon, fox, deer, etc. if these animals were allowed to roam free on these farms, there wouldn’t be any crops to support your bullshit diet. The food you eat is meant for the animals that you don’t eat. You’re supposed to eat the animals that eat the plants that you eat because their bodies are designed to break down and convert nutrients that end up in the muscle, which ends up in your body for nutrition when your eat the meat, and their digestive system removes the toxins that end up in your body when YOU eat the plants. Only animals with multi chambered stomachs are supposed to eat plants. Humans have one stomach. Let the animals eat the plants, and let people eat the animals. It’s how the circle of life was always meant to be. I hate abusive and inhumane animal farming as well, which is why I get my meat from one of the greatest small town farmers in the country. He has the healthiest and happiest animals, and they taste great too!
My 13 yr old pediatrician actually had her get blood tests done to confirm she was not anemic due to her diet and her monthly cycle. If I was not in the medical field myself, I would’ve been completely appalled and angry over this blatant show of ignorance from a “so-called” professional. I am very aware of the poor amount of time spent on nutrition doctors receive in medical school, and instead of doing any research they are just as guilty of listening to TOM DICK AND HARRY as the next door neighbor. Thank you sir and PLANT BASED NEWS for all you folks do. Keep up the great work!
Your "13 yr old pediatrician"? Wow, she must've started uni early! lol ;)
Dara Berry my 10 year old got her monthly cycle once and then not again for the last 4 months so I know it’s going to start for real soon. I simply fed her more. I know I tend to be hungrier around that time so as a growing kid she has to be hungry. I’m lucky her doctor is great and pretty close to fully plant based himself so he agreed...just feed her more (certain foods of course). Both husbands parents are doctors and said feed her more. My Mom the CNA cried that she needed red meat daily now 🙄 First time I ever argued with my Mom so bad. She accused me of neglect so I accused her of brain damage. My MIL is a doctor first but also secondarily trained extensively in nutrition...my Mom thinks her CNA license makes her the expert 🙄 ignorance still exists. Not sure where my Mom went to nursing school but I’m pretty sure it was same place I went and only a couple years apart...our classes promoted plant based eating so I guess maybe she was absent that semester. Who knows but she has plenty of medical field friends who agree. One even told me feed my daughter liver during her monthly...how many 10 year olds would want to eat a liver? I can’t imagine eating liver being healthy considering the job it performs
Dara Berry - A 13 year old paediatrician?! Give her time: maybe she’ll get better with a few years more experience practising medicine.
@@dorianphilotheates3769 😂😂😂🤣
blood test do not proof nothing you can still have deficiencies which all vegans do

They weren't vegan in the first place.
@Beast Mode oxymoronic, but any efforts a good effort I guess
I bet many people wish they could go back and slap themselves into not making that mistake.
True that Edward.
Don't make the "no true Scotsman" fallacy, it won't help the vegan movement.. And I'm vegan.
Use "they weren't ethical vegans" instead.
@@darkensdiablos but that is also fallacious dude. Even the official definition of veganism says to do what is 'reasonable' and 'practicable' to reduce animal exploitation. Is it really reasonable and practicable to accept a gradual decline in your health? I have been trying for two years to eat the diet most optimal for digestion and skin and it has still steadily declined to a point where it's seriously affecting my quality of life - I know what the science says as I've spent many hours trying to 'school' my friends on said science but finally I am now feeling failed and lied to just like a great deal of other ex-vegans (I'm still eating plant based at this point) and the more I research with an open mind the more I see that no one is addressing the decline in digestion and skin health
Let's get more of these reality-check videos out there. The "Why I am not longer vegan" videos are very convincing, and of course, aimed at the most vulnerable. Even I have to remind myself, this is nonsense, when I watch one all the way through.
Why is it nonsense?
Because you can't face the truth?
They should make less conving videos, that will help the vegan cause.
Maybe if they try harder to not age so bad because the lack of colagen or be less crazy because lack of b12 and excessive sugar , maybe people will not take these videos as so convincing.
I dont take supplements nor have a B12 deficiency. Nor B11 nor B976. I do what feels good. Thats raw thats fasting thats organic where poss. Supernatural living. And cheap, minimalist, sustainable. Been doing this for decades. Love it!
Love this! I just want to mention that I have been vegan for five years and eat a well balanced diet. I don't follow vegan trends anymore because the benefits they provide are short term before you crash. I also want to say that I went on a 25 mile backpacking trip last summer and was always in the front of the group with the "big strong men", and I'm a 105 pound 20 year old female. I had more energy and stamina than almost everyone. Also I LOVE animals and the planet I live on, so duh, I'm vegan for life.
Okay, I’m a baby boomer (just) and I don’t usually “like” or comment on posts that use the f-bomb but I’ll make an exception. Good on you. I hope you continue. I wish I had gone vegan earlier. Fantastic that you’re starting young. 😘
💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
@Mark Anthony Why are the odds against me?
@Mark Anthony Fortunately I'm a person, not a statistic. I'm quite certain of my choices, but thanks for wishing me good luck?
Most ethical vegans don't give up veganism, most people who try a plant based diet for a while might give it up, there's quite a difference. If you really understand the truth about the animal product industries, you don't want to support them anymore.
These are the kind of videos we need more of; full of correct information about veganism, from actual educated professionals.
Millenials born 1981-1996. They aren't all 20 man.
Don't expect a boomer to know anything lol
@@Cbd_7ohm anything? and you know everything? no be fair.
I've been a vegan for over 6 years. Every month I donate blood platelets, I donate blood every three months.
Before I became a vegan, I could not do it for healthy reasons (bad liver tests).
Thanks to these regular subscriptions, I have a beautiful idea of blood images, iron and the like.
And you know what? I eat a varied diet and everything is still perfect. I feel great.
And especially in my head I feel that no one is suffering for me!
I get so much gas and you know what?
I just fart a lot.
VEGANISM ALL THE WAY!!!
Well you know what they say, the more you fart the better you feel so eat beans for every meal. Stay rooted, my friends!
Hahaha me too. 😂😂😂😂
The great thing about that is, vegan poots have no smell. I love this about being vegan. :)
Don't overeat and chew properly, helps alot. Don't drink much with meals.
why do vegans fart so much?
i used to fart when i are the wrong foods, and now I do not fart much at all throughout the week. Maybe 2-3 a week at most. Why are vegans always farting and proud of it, honestly?
The voice of reason! Thank you.
It’s been a month I started vegan, loving it
I'm proud of you me too
"I went vegan for 1 millisecond and I got pneumonia, hepatitis, cancer, my house burned down, my cat's leg fractured, and I literally died." -Every anti-vegan argument
lmaoooo
herbivores have a fermentation system humans don't that is the difference... also SADiet is all ready vegan as it is so yes about 95 to 98% of the SADiet is plant based as it is and they're doing pretty well, NOT...
well to be honest, most of these people claiming to be “quitting” veganism are confused and in reality are quitting their plant-based diet.. huge difference.
the lucky vegan 👌🏻Exactly.
So when you eventually go back to meat (like the vast majority of you do) then can we call say you were not a real vegan?
@@thedoc5848 like i said, you are confusing planet-based wanna bees with vegans. we don’t go back. please learn how to read.

I had iron levels on the low end of the healthy range every time I had a blood test when I was on an omnivorous diet. I also had low thyroid. When I switched to a vegan diet, both my iron and thyroid levels improved even though I took no supplements.
lydiaD777 same!!
Many years ago my iron levels were low, so I decided to add substantially more legumes to my diet. I wasn't wfpb at the time, but didn't want to supplement with iron or increase my beef intake. My iron normalized within a couple of months.
Prove it
yes same and because of that I used to have really bad period cramps. Now since going vegan period cramps are hardly there anymore
Doesn't that mean that you simply ate badly on an omnivore diet?
Great video. I spent 5 years learning about nutrition and adopting a whole foods diet before veganism was even a possibility on my radar. So when I went vegan I was already eating a balanced diet and taking the correct supplements, and all I did was switch meat to beans, milk to soymilk, and butter to other oils. (I know oil isn't great but I never said I was perfect. I don't use very much oil.) I have had no problems on a vegan diet, and I do not portion control, and still I have gotten leaner but not lost muscle. I'm on my third year. It's not hard, and I DON'T think you need 5 years of research, you just need to understand that you need a wide variety of plant foods including a lot of hearty foods like beans, rice, potatoes, and a few vitamins. (And non-vegans usually need some vitamins too, so don't let this insanely weak excuse stop you.)
Dr.Natasha Campbell McBride will beg to differ... the Greeks in Ikaria eat fish and dairy and live to 100+... yawn .. Veganism is not the way.. sorry to burst your bubble
its not what they eat its what they don´t eat
I saw a cover today in Whole Foods : “Can eating meat save the planet” Paleo magazine. What the hell is going on??!
???😵
Cause Paleo people are crazy. Why do people think the best way to live is like cave people? Doesn't even make any sense. If they were so happy back then we wouldn't have moved out of the caves and developed agriculture.
Yeah, because grain monocultures are doing great for the enviroment, sure 100%.
@@om-nj2hw 'cave people' also ate humans, rats and dogs. so i'm glad we've moved on from that. happy to be vegan.
@@polentusmax6100 over half of monocultured crops are being fed to livestock, so to lower the amount of monocultured crops why not eat the crops instead of feeding multiple kg of crops to get 1kg of livestock meat...
Would probably be safe to assume these people were simply "ad-revenue vegans".
👍🏻 yes or for the title of being ‘vegan’ or to be super thin.
or now ad revenue non-vegans. revenue being the common word.
Well in all fareness there are a LOT of ppl who have been vegans for 10-15 years and realized it’s not working and they have tried a lot of different ways to be vegans. I don’t think all ppl should be vegans because we all are different.
Im a millennial, vegan for 11 years, no looking back
you are a star
It's weird, I eat so muh shit food as a vegan, mostly processed, fake meats with veg of course, I dont take suppliments and am slightly overweight yet I feel no negative health effects at all? whats everyone moaning about?
If youre eatting junk food now, you were probably eating junk food as an omnivore, and when you went vegan, it probably didnt help your health at all because its the junk food in both vegan and omnivourous diets that causes health issues, not the animal products. Maybe you have health issues and symptoms of health issues, but you dont really notice them because theyve become normal for you.
Another excellent video by Dr. Garth~ ❤️
If they are leaving being vegan, they probably never really were vegan 😐

I am 69 years old and I believe at this stage of my life that eating a more plant based diet is more healthy.
I am not interested in anything else except keeping myself in good shape and not needing meds, and living a long life as healthy as I can be.
That was awesome. More live-streaming of videos and do live interviews too! You guys at plant based news are awesome. If you are ever in Indiana, USA then look me up.
Thank you Dr. Davis
I turned to the vegan lifestyle, strictly for the health benefits.
I salute this kind of Doctor, they are unselfish sharing information that will help us to be healthy just by eating a plant based diet, it's free and no prescription, and they will not going to be rich by doing this. I'm not a vegan nor a vegetarian but I'm dreaming to be one someday. ❤️ I respect all kinds of people, what they're eating and i love watching and listening to their stories and experiences in YT. I can control what i eat, mostly vegetables, fruits and fish, so very seldom to eat meat, eggs and dairy. But someday i will, i'm going there, totally omit the fish and meat, eggs and dairy. And be a vegan. 🌱
If you get off the plant based diet, you can count on getting a very sick body as you go into the second half of your life. Often times you don't know you have heart disease till you have a heart attack; won't know you have kidney disease till you're told you need to go on dialysis. Whatever you feel about animals and the environment, you can count on being sick. Medical intervention and pills won't cure you, but the plant based diet will prevent or even reverse whatever is wrong. The complete plant based diet is the most nutritious way to eat that there is. It's lovely to care about animals, I do, and it's wonderful to care about the environment (I do) but first and foremost... care about yourself.

I don't want to know nothing about what will happen to me during the second half of my life. I want to heal myself NOW, NOW. SAYS A VEGAN.
small footprint I’m living breathing evidence that your statements are claims and not facts. I’m in optimal health and do not take any medication. My bloodwork is awesome. I eat meat
@@mrs6100 hi everyone. My name is sewage ze conspiretard and i poo once in 10 years
@@mrs6100 anactodal evidence isn't legitimate evidence or "breathing" evidence. The link between heart disease, cholesterol, diabetes, a bunch of cancers.... and animal products is undeniable, you being lucky doesn't mean meat is healthy and you aren't even sure if it's going to stay that way...
I agree with being a vegan, it is much healthier, but what I dont like about this guy, is in the movie What the Health, he says meat causes diabetes, and sugar and refined carbohydrates are good for you..... REALLY? SUGAR?? REFINED CARBS?? When I heard that, I knew this guy is being paid off by some industries to say something so unbelievably stupid. And humans have been eating meat for over 250,000 years. I seriously doubt that diabetes was as rampant as it is today, Considering diabetes only became an epidemic AFTER refined sugar and flour became such a big part of our diets in the last 50 years, I really question this guys ethnics.
@keto cycler Did you know that in the 70's the sugar companies paid for testing to show the opposite of the bad effects it caused? (Which was irritation of the arteries and heart disease) And they blamed it on meat and fat. Or the dairy industry saying milk and yogurt is good for you while osteoporosis, arthritis and inflammation and other heath problems keep increasing in direct ratio with their increasing consumption? Or that cigarettes are good for you? Or fast is so good for you, that commercials are constantly shown for them? When have we NOT been lied to? Vegan diets are VERY healthy, but flour and sugar, which have increased so much in the last 50 years, coincide directly with the increase cancer and heart diseases and many other illnesses. We did not have these extreme occurrences back in the 40's.50's and 60's. It was after all these sugar and processed flour came about that all this started happening.
The best food for cancer is glucose, made directly from sugar and flour. Also, mankind has been eating meat and saturated fat for 250,000 years. Im sure they didnt have an epidemic of diabetes, cancer & heart disease all this time. In fact they were quite healthy, even back them. Most sickness was of a bacterial or parasitic, just like in many countries now. The real issues of health began when we started using flour and sugar. Its that simple. Look at Germany, and other places in Europe and Asia they eat a LOT of meat, they just never ate that much flour or sugar like Americans do, and they have so much lower incidences of these diseases.
I'm 58 years old and I'm no longer vegan. I didn't juice at all, I ate a combination of whole and cooked veggies. I ate grains and legumes as well. I started to feel bad physically so I started consuming meat again and almost immediately felt better. I've done my research too and what I've discovered is that you can't get all the nutrients your body needs from just vegetables. You should be able to get all your nutrients from food. If not, something is wrong because we survived for over 2.5 million years without supplements.
Everything destroys the environment. Animals are killed during harvesting of crops, we pollute the air with our cars, we spill chemicals into the ground and water making the polyester sweater you are wearing, and the list goes on.
What you eat is a matter of choice, period. What's good for you, may not be good for others. I think people with good intentions who care for animals and the environment become vegan then when they start feeling sick they realize it's not for them. What's wrong with that? It's their choice.
This video assured me. I stopped eating meat a week ago, and now I just saw a bunch of videos saying it almost killed them. I was kind of worried but this video made me feel better
Exactly this. If I was having any type of medical issue I would find the vegan solution. I am more of a junk food vegan ... trying to figure out the whole foods side! Difference is ... I know I am a junk food vegan ... I'm not going to blame veganism for my medical issues. I wish there was a vegan doctor/nutritionist closer to where I live .... who would actually understand what I need.
Hey Pumpkin, you do not need to become a health nut to be healthy on a vegan diet. Have you seen Ginna Messina's talk here on youtube. "Seven habits of healthy vegans?" She has been vegan for over 20 years and is a registered dietitian. Since I follow her advice I can eat a balanced diet without any issues. She is not extreme in anyway and you still can eat all the things you love. On another note I used to eat much more junk but I noticed when I eat a bowl of oatmeal with some fruit and nuts in the morning I am so motivated to continue this good eating throughout the day. Another thing that has helped me immense to eat more balanced is my electric pressure cooker. Now I don't have to stand in the kitchen for hours to prepare a delicious healthy meal anymore.
@@mariemai2902 Thanks so much for this! I remember hearing her name before probably a year or so ago and I had wanted to look it up but forgot all about it! I have been struggling to find a balance I guess ... I eat a lot of meat alternatives and feel like I can never kick this sugar addiction! I'll look into her right away :)
@@TheNerdess I found "how not to die" (Dr. Greger) a very interesting read! His app "daily dozen" can help in the beginning aswell :).

That's the point, thank you for saying how it is.
They rather blame veganism instead of themselves..
@@TheNerdess Sugar is a problem for me also. My level of self-control is if I cannot get to it I won't eat it. Don't buy sugar products. Just like you wouldn't buy cigarettes if you didn't want to smoke. Just add kale or spinach to your meals a little bit at a time.

But a month ago listening to you and Dr Esselstyn, I followed a solid no oils, salts and sugar diet, cut all processed foods-ate a Beet every day and drank lemon/cucumber water. My Cholesterol went from 239 to 165 and LDL from 200 to 98. Eating plant based WORKS!! 💕💜🙏
So true! I'm vegan for animals but slowly, through education realized how beneficial it is for one's physical and mental health. Ideal! We don't need to slaughter animals for survival and they don't suffer. Isn't it what real humans want?

I've been vegan for 8 years now, and have only had positive impacts on my diet, no more joint pain, no more stomach issues, no more acid reflux, among more issues I used to have back when I was in my early 20s. It's all about eating whole food plant based with plenty of beans, greens, fruits, and grains. It's really not that hard folks

The common “denominator” between all these non vegans is the eating disorder. Thank you for addressing this. ❤️
yes there is no way one can thrive with an eating disorder. no matter what they eat. if you are suffering with this please seek help.
your talking complete nonsense there is no logic in what your saying
both vegan and non vegans can end up with eating disorders this is not exclusive to none vegans
yes, or just following a trendy restrictive plant diet because they’re naive since their brain is still developing
I used to avoid certain categories of plant foods too but snapped out of it
Nice try, he left out the most important common trait and that is deteriorating health, that and the fact that current vegans share these traits as well.
@@FruityHachi My health has vastly improved after cutting out certain categories of plant foods.
Vegan=ethic
This is the problem with illiteracy. People use words they don't comprehend. Vegan has nothing to do with diet but diet has everything to do with vegan. Leave vegan=leave ethic
„I did it because of science.“
👍🏼😁
I gradually shifted to a WFPB diet and have been fully on it for a week now after listening to FoodRevolution’s summit and a lot of Dr. Barnard videos. My motivation is to drastically lower my cholesterol and impact on the planet. There’s a ton of misinformation to dispel (grains-eat your fiber! You need these plants to get enough calories and nourishment). And theres a lot to learn-getting familiar with many varieties of beans, legumes, grains, and produce. When in doubt, learn from the Asians(and of course other cultures too). Instant Pot and Rice cookers are essential. Batch cook, freeze surplus, buy frozen fruit and veg to save processing and shopping time. Eat a great variety. Make yourself eat more if you lose too much weight. I need to eat 4 meals right now to keep at a healthy BMI especially while keeping all oils at a minimum.
Thank you!! We're in transition after watching "game changers". A thought occured to me when a hunter gave us some deer right before this decision was made. If a hunter found an animal in the wild missing patches of fur, barely able stand, covered in pustules, resembling a leper, would you feed it to your family? Or leave it for the scavenger after you've granted it mercy? The industry won't let you see the animals BECAUSE they know you wouldn't eat it, nor would stand for the treatment!! They DO have something to hide, so HIDE it they do, fiercly. I don't know why it took me so long to put those pieces together.
You can source healthy animal products… local regenerative farming is good for the Earth.
Maybe but if all the cattle farming was concerted to regenerative farming you would need a couple more planets for the space required.
I’m so healthy since I’m vegan! No more pain during my period.Never look back. They said so many lies about us and I don’t know why. I hope people can inform themselves more
What you said is so important- I am vegan because of the science. Those who do the research and live a well nourished vegan life can tell others how. As you say, people who are eating a bad diet are suffering from a bad diet, even if they don't eat meat.
Vegan and bodybuilding are mutually exclusive.
Ten years ago, I had cardiac testing that showed 23 % blockage in my arteries. All my relatives on my Dad's side died from heart disease. Three years ago I went vegan. Three months ago, I was retested, and have ZERO % blockage. My regular doctors still snicker at my veganism. I had a young cardiologist tell me my heart and arteries were better than his ( he is 25 years younger than me), he has issues. He actually commended my veganism and said he wished he had the discipline to go vegan.
@AlmondButter Most doctors only know what they learned in Med school, and when it comes to nutrition, med school is not plant based friendly at all.
They are just doing it for the views. They couldn't care less about the animals 😥
Tracey Ewing what other animals care about the animals they eat
I have transitioned to a vegan diet over the last five weeks because I am trying to heal autoimmune issues. I feel so much better on a vegan diet. I am finally losing weight. My skin is clearer than it has ever been. I have more energy. I firmly believe that I am finally eating the way I was designed to eat. It wasn’t difficult to transition for me; I love oatmeal for breakfast!!!
Naomi May you’re cleansing your lower brain, it’s an awesome feeling.
Eating animal products made less and less sense to me. For my health, for the animals and for the planet.
Good advice. I am a WFPB lifestyle eater 85 plus out of 90 meals of the month. I sometimes call myself a "selfish unethical vegan" it's not directly absolutly about the animals it's about my health!!
Wow i wish my fiance's parents would understand! Too bad they're not open to watching/reading anything that will educate them on the vegan lifestyle.
Britnie G thats the problem. People that say they are vegans, but are not into the philosophy of veganism.
My parents were the same way, I cook some vegan food similar to things there use too. I bought things they could make that would catch there eye . When I made dinner for my myself I shared with them. Now , they are 90% vegan and they are slowly seeing how much it helps there body. It's a slow process but I'm happy . I started sharing with the rest of my family and they sharing also.
@Beast Mode Post a study where animal products have made someone without an obvious deficiency healthier, will read.
I work in the medical profession (not a doctor) but I watch people make bad decisions about their health and the doctor prescribes more and more pills. They never get better - their disease is just "managed". No one tells them to go on a Whole Food Plant Based Diet and if they do (it occasionally happens) people don't listen. So take care of yourself and give it up to a higher power. I've been Plant Based for 8 years now and my arthritis is very faint, my son did the same and lost his Ulcerative Colitis and is doing great.
I'm in the same boat.
I’ve been vegan 11 years and have rarely taken B 12 and my blood tests are around 450-500 which is very good. Why would that be 🤔 I distance run and am 65 I do take D though.
You're 65 yrs old? Wow if all of what you said is true then you are a true inspiration.
The Natural Health Blogger thank you I’ll check this out 😊
Suisite Bomba Thanks! Started running at 24 and never stopped ..... helped keep my bones strong but going vegan has totally eliminated my joints from pain I wish others could experience this. The meat and dairy lobbyists are wicked!
Why not supplement B12? Why wait for a deficiency? Alzheimer's has been shown at higher than expected rates in vegans, so take care of your brain. I'm 58 and super healthy and I supplement B12. It is about $3.00/month. at the most.
Perhaps you are a non-secretor, genetic makeup can make a big difference in B12 levels. Google Fut2 RS601338. If you have two of the A alleles then you will not secrete B12 through saliva and gastrointestinal cells, 20% of the population have these genes. You will also be highly resistant to the norovirus, have you ever had it?
Vegan for 25 years and being 54 years old and stronger and animals need to be left alone ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi, can you explain the myriad of males bragging that eating only animals made
them feel terrific and solved their many health problems?. They do not seem to see
the forest through the trees. I ama whole food ethical vegan for many years.
80% caloric intake from plant sources and 20% of total calories from meat has worked well for me over the last three decades.
People who claim to be vegan and then go back to eating animal products were never vegan. Most of them are plant based, not vegan. If you are truly vegan you WILL find a way to get better without going back to eating meat, dairy and eggs. A lot of these young people think it is trendy and hip to be vegan and they somehow think it is just a diet, well veganism is not a diet it's a lifestyle. Educate yourself before you call yourself a vegan.
Any proof of them not being vegan from something they said? Otherwise I’m calling you out for No True Scotsman.
Awesome!
Finally someone smart answering these "no longer vegan" videos!!
Thanks for taking the time to bring this current issue to light. Needed to be said. People need to get their information from the persons that posse the knowledge and expertise in this field, not from someone that may just be attempting to "click bait" RUclips viewers.
Thank you so much for finally saying this.
I'm vegan for so many reasons but especially for the animals.
I also went cold turkey.
Veganism helped me so much, it seems like that vegans who do it bc of morals don't seem do get sick ( as I got never sick since being vegan for 3 yrs and I know other ethical vegans who got never sick )
I was a vegetarian, saw a documentary about what goes on in the dairy industry, and became vegan overnight. ❤
The youngest millennial 3 years ago was 23 years old, hardly a "kid", at least in non-american terms.
So sick of old people generalising and talking down "millennials".
remember boomers are going to be the cause of the next great depression (coming soon in 2023/24)
As a doctor you know everyone’s physiology may not work with veganism. There is a portion of people who will not thrive. Instead of criticizing millennials, why don’t you come up with a healthy vegan protocol with all the nutrients needed for the masses to follow. Tell them what and how much to eat and what vitamins they need to supplement. Give them the specifics. Make meal plans and include the necessary vitamin information and the bioavailability of these vitamins. Show them what works for you. It’s shameful how you talk about people who are suffering. Some have real issues not just a pimple or a tummy ache. If you are not part of the solution you are part of the problem. Please help them make better choices instead of ridiculing them. Their intentions are not bad. They want to protect animals and their own healthy. Give them your expert advice so good health will not be mutual exclusive from vegan ideology.
SORRY ANIMALS Y'ALL GETTIN SNAPPED UP FOR THESE GAINZ
The Medical Medium recommends eating plant based and his books are healing millions worldwide. Love the vegan movement!
Yeah also wild salmon .. he’s not vegan
If you want to be vegan, be vegan. If you want to be vegetarian or nutritarian or whole food, plant based, go for it. If you want to eat meat, your decision. It’s your life. It’s your health.
These "vegan's" think it's a restriction diet that will help them stay trim. However, veganism isn't about restricting/cutting out food groups, it's about finding cruelty free alternatives. Also it's not a diet, it's a lifestyle.
I am so thankful for this video because I am so disappointed that a popular RUclipsr changed her plant based diet and it has made me feel so awful, confused and depressed for days. Because I followed her for vegan recipes when I first began 3 years ago. I needed to hear this.
I went vegetarian in 1984 and vegan 5 years ago and I have never felt better!

In Japan, everybody knows eating too much of anything is bad. We learned that eating 30 different kinds of ingredients is great, eating vegetable is great, eating until you are 80% full is great, eating fish is healthier than meat, etc. When an all American type guy came to work in my office, he was always eating the same drink and food and leaving his veggies at lunch when they went out to eat. He told me he got tired after a while because everyone kept lecturing him to eat his vegetable. The healthy school lunches in Japan works throughout our lifetime because we are engraved on what kind of food we should be eating. America should start from giving healthy food to children at school. If they are getting crap at home, at least they will get healthy balanced food at school. This will teach them what healthy combination of food is.
Amongst the millenial fad youtubers there are some genuine cases where despite best efforts they had underlying health and gut issues that really affect their ability to thrive on a plant based diet. If these areas are not addressed people who are struggling but strive to be ethical vegans end up tormented. I know as i've been there. Tenacious research to find a plant based doctor that understood that helped me achieve this lifestyle so i guess im sympathetic to this. Goji man and others are addressing this online so please don't give up there are answers out there.
The average person is not a nutritional expert so the diet will fall short at some point.
People need to educate themselves. Cronometer helps. It's not that hard. The standard American diet has been falling short for decades. We're in a literal health crisis and its NOT due to a WFPB lifestyle.
Nicholas Ockhuisen The key is variety to get max nutrients. Dr Gregor’s app is great. It makes me realise I’m not eating enough plant food. Dr Fuhrnan refers to GBOMBS and that reminds me what to try to include daily. Maybe all that sounds difficult to get used to but when I think about what I used to eat in a day ... I was lacking so many nutrients and eating empty calories.
☺ Thanks so much for posting this. This information is what needs to be known regarding the anti vegan videos which are circulating.
OMG! So glad you made this video. I’m so tired of those videos. If they get sick they don’t realize they are doing something wrong or missing something. This is my 3rd time and this time I have it right. I didn’t give up! I’m Flexitarian and taking B12.
With all the respect, check the latest video of Viktoria Butenko. Her family was converting so many people to vegans, she wrote books about green smoothies. She's a researcher. Now she is publicly apologises for misleading people and she talks about how sorry she is for raising kids as vegans!
Agreed. Ethical vegans stay vegan because of the heart connection to the Animals and planet. I have had christian friends who have tried to to be vegan but because of their religion, they have a hard time seeing animals as equal to them.
Wow your christian friends still don't know that we are all one, connected to each other! I thought they are supposed to be the spiritual ones!
Not all Christians think that way. I became vegan after completing the Daniel Fast. Ask your friends about that story in the Bible, see what they say.
@@drinabooboo The whole dominion over the earth thing seems to hang them up. Discussing veganism with them, the conversations could only go so deep into how animals are sentient, etc. And I remember from having to go to church during my youth how prevalent speciesism is in christianity. Hell, they don't even like catholics.
If we try to argue animals are equal to humans its not going to be easy. Another way to see it is that animals are innocent and didn't harm us in any way, their abilities to suffer is equal to us, and we have no justifiable reason to take their life.
Alice Indeed, we have a duty to care for them, not eat them and a duty to care for the planet. That’s what God wants. We’re destroying the earth and harming the beautiful creatures God created. How is that glorifying God and his creation?
But...from her What I eat in a day videos, Bonny seemed to be eating as you suggest...?
Thank you for addressing the elephant in the room
@Karoline i find it funny that a handful of youtubers are representing millions of people who eat plant based, as if their experiences are indicative of any generalizations at all. N = what? 5? For that matter, it is strange there are so few docs advocating WFPB as well. I think youtube is the issue - audiences tend to concentrate around standout channels, whatever the subject. Extrapolating from small numbers is something to avoid.
Key word, "seemed" to be.
Guys, I don't know what to think anymore.
I've had gut issues since going vegan. I take b12 supplements and I eat a good variety of plants, grains and legumes. I'm going to add eggs and fish for three months and see how it goes. I can't ignore this anymore.
I did go vegan bc of a RUclips video, actually a channel. This channel. Thought I would try it out and WOW a couple of days in a felt so much better. Never turning back. It make me feel better, is good for the environment, and not mistreating animals. Win win win.
