Great conversation. Very informative. I became a vegetarian over 45 years ago. I became vegan about 25 years ago. Then 3 years ago, I increased the uncooked fruits & veggies to 95% of my diet & the remaining 5% is beans, hummus, nuts & rice. I made these dietary choices for my health, to prevent the suffering of animals & for the benefit of the environment. I am 79 years old, still working & exercising. Over the years, many people have said to me that they could never eat the way I do. I respond that one day everyone will be eating this way because survival of the species and protection of the environment will demand it. That day is here. Keep up the good work, Rip & Dr. Desmond.
Hi Jean, I live locally and thinking about going to Dr Desmond for dietary advice for my Crohn's. How have you found his advice for you over the last year?
This is one of the best interviews on this channel to date. Truly worth viewing and learned a lot from this amazing doctor from the other side of the pond! Two thumbs up for this video and three cheers for plant based/ strong folks everywhere. Thanks Rip and Dr. Alan!
Wow…. That was brilliant and one of the best podcasts I’ve heard. I love Dr Desmond’s passion. His immense knowledge is profound. Thank you so much Rip for all your work and sharing. I really look forward to part 3. ❤️
Great interview (Part 1) with Dr. Alan Desmond "Plant Based Diet Revolution". Love him trying to reclaim the word "diet" from the weight loss industry which really doesn't care about true biological healthiness of people! His Galileo Moment - Thanking his patients is inspirational. Thank you Rip for another great episode of PLANTSTRONG podcast. (Part 2) - I predict will be just as HEALTHY!
Almost worth moving back to England to book an appointment with Sr Alan Desmond. Big meat eaters here in New Zealand, but not me. Whole food plant based for 3 years now.
Try to make it over to Brisbane. They have sooo many veggie options everywhere. It's a really plant forward-thinking environment there more so than most other places. Similar to LA/Cali
I just wish veg prices were more reasonable. They talk about wanting lower healthcare costs, but one eggplant for $5.99 or one broccoli crown for $3.50 or a punnet of tomatoes for $8.99 makes it really difficult for low-income families to add veg to their grocery bill. Even a small pack of tempeh is near $8. So, I make my own. If they subsidised farmers and did an "eat more veg" campaign, maybe the cost of healthcare could improve.
@@Psaltrymom Buy fruit and veg in season and you'll cut your grocery bill right down. You can't eat brocolli all year round and expect it to cost the same.
@@Psaltrymom , Dr. Mcdougall says up to 90% of your diet should be starches, potatoes, whole grains, pasta & beans! He says u don't need to buy tons of vegetables or fruits. They should be side dishes.
I would encourage rip to welcome his guests. Just like Dr. Alan did with him.he had a wonderful greeting for him. Rip's first sentence was " What is a gastroenterologist"? No welcome.this Dr. Is wonderful. Such a great communicator.just a little constructive criticism.
Omigosh~what an amazing cold open, what a brilliant doctor! Can't wait to listen to this, hopefully uninterrupted, fingers crossed, lol!! Thank you Rip, these are such brilliant interviews, well done!
Thank you both for sharing this needed information! ❤❤I am thankful to hear Dr. Desmond talk of plant proteins.🌱 (~40 min) it was a relief and encouragement. I needed to hear that to support what I thought, but need to hear and learn more about it. I had a hip replacement last Friday! In the hospital they stressed protein, I needed 100 grams a day of protein to rebuild myself, (eat meat, etc the routine SAD) I'm thrilled to hear what Dr. Desmond had to say!!!! It was challenging, (and is), to even tell anyone that I ate vegan. 🪴 I'm doing well, and look forward to getting better! ❤❤ I did buy Dr. Desmond's book, just starting it, and I love it.
Amazing interview! Wow! Dr Alan is great and his Galileo moments are truly amazing.. thank you f or everything you do Rip..🙏🏼🙏🏼and your family, you are all truly amazing!!💚💚
What an amazing discussion. Kudos to you both. I am so much more enthused about plant-based living thanks to this kind of podcast where a wealth of nutrition knowledge is shared and explored!
I really really really enjoyed this whole conversation. Thank you so much, to both of you, for the interview. I either learned or was reminded of so much information that I can use to help myself and others in my life who might be open to the idea. Thanks again. Y'all have a great day.
Thanks so much. "Dr. Atkins, The New Diet Revolution. With all due respect to the gentleman, did more harm in the world of food than anybody ever did before." God bless!
I did get his book after listening to him. I'm glad I got it! He simplifies things, yet explains and even has recipes! I only wish the font were darker, but that's my eye!
So glad you enjoyed your time here in Wisconsin over the 4th! You must have brought the heat with you! Lol. Your mom and dad and sister Jane and of course you are my plant strong heroes! 💪💚
Hi Rip Ray from Sydney Australia Thank you for "What you eat in a day" Excellent content I follow your dad too ! Your breakfast cereal can you tell me the content of it Once again Many Thanks Ray
I have been whole foods plant based for 4 yrs now but for 50yrs ate our western diet. in 2014 i had a colonoscopy which should diverticulosis and hemorrhoids . the hemorrhoids are gone but can anyone weigh in on the diverticulosis???
Of course! Even if we're not of Irish ancestry, we all know about the Blarney Stone, I'm sure. March 17th we do celebrate every year, St Patrick's Day when everyone is Irish whether they are Irish or not!
My issue is (and this is common with women) that because I have to limit calories to not gain weight, it actually IS hard to get enough protein without supplements. And, I heard that some protein gets wasted (burned as fuel instead of being used for tissue maintenance and repair) when someone is limiting calories...so that you actually need to eat a bit extra protein. My recent blood tests showed my B12 is almost TOO high. I may need to cut back on supplements.
I'm well on my way to be 100% Vegan. Not so much that I don't like meat, what I do like is how my body feels when it's not bloated, and I hate the way agriculture has become...animals aren't frolicking around lush green pastures like they want us to believe. Wake up people, it's cruel. My moment was when I gave up milk, just milk (still consuming cheese + ice cream + yogurt), within a week I could breathe thru my nose at night. Not all stuffed up anymore. I'm 85% there. 🙂
U have to give up the other dairy products also to get more relief. U could have a sluggish thyroid, Iodoral 12.5 tabs clear out asthma & allergies, only avail online!
Planetary food plate 50% fruit and veg, 25% grains, 25% pulses. AMA asked for meat and dairy to be removed from dietary guidelines. UN change diet to reduce effects of the pandemic.
If 97% of Americans are lacking fiber, then there are only 3% of us that are vegan and /or on plant-based diets. I thought we were doing better than that...🤦🏼♀️
@@drewe9514 that wasn't the point I was making though. My fundamental concern is the number of people still contributing to animal exploitation and slaughter.
@@Frenchblue8 60 Billion sentient factory farmed land animals slaughtered per year. Fiber amount is not the measure of these more ethical issues. If we save them by getting more people to become 20-50% plant-based it would be better than getting the few that we are getting to go full vegan. Many junk food vegans are maybe doing better than the average of 8g of fiber daily. Still most of us are fiber deficient if you look at the studies of healthiest tribes around the world.
WOW! Love Dr. Desmond’s wealth of knowledge and passion for plant-based nutrition. The examples he shared of patients and their success stories…AMAZING! I have his book and look forward to reading it! Plantstrong for the win! 🌱
What is this wonderful doctor's name and what is the title of his book? I found it! No problem. I'm off to amazon.com to buy this book. Thank you, Rip, for making this information part of my continuing education in how our bodies work!

So glad! This is exactly why we do this!
I first heard him on PCRM. The Exam Room...great information!
Thanks for listening!
Chef A.J. interviewed him also!

You should! Dr. Desmond is amazing.
I did get his book after listening to him. I'm glad I got it! He simplifies things, yet explains and even has recipes!
I only wish the font were darker, but that's my eye!
Great interview I learned a lot thank you
Whole plant base diet and excercise x 10 = the top 10.
Terrific interview!
One of the best podcasts I’ve listened to. Can’t wait for next week.
This was a very good podcast. Thank you for sharing this information with us.
Glad you enjoyed it!

I would like to know myself. Seems to be some debate on whether or not the pockets can heal.
@@anotherashleytoo ONE way to find out colonoscopy
@@sircorkysriley4904 yeah, that is true!
Большое спасибо уважаемый Рип! Очень интересная и полезная инфрмация. Подписался на ваш канал.
He doesnt hail from the uk. He's Irish born, raised & educated in Ireland. Just lives and practices in the uk.
is 40-50G of protein enough for a 65 yr old with osteoporosis?
Of course! Even if we're not of Irish ancestry, we all know about the Blarney Stone, I'm sure. March 17th we do celebrate every year, St Patrick's Day when everyone is Irish whether they are Irish or not!

1 in 3 have diverticulitis? 🤯
no way 🥺
Quite possible as you don’t know you have it. Tummy ache, bloating, wind, occur daily but we don’t know that is diverticulitis.
