Georgia Ede challenges seven half-truths promoted in the popular film The Game Changers and reveals what the real dietary game changer is. CrossFit® - (www.crossfit.com/)
I agree completely with the presentation, but it's unfortunate that the slide at the end showing photos of whole foods contrasted with processed foods includes pasta in the whole foods picture.
05:00 - yes, soil cobalt. In New Zealand's north island central volcanic plateau - what was initially called 'bush sickness' in grazing animals was eventually shown to be a nutritional deficiency that resulted from the volcanic parent material being low in cobalt.
Excellent talk by Georgia Ede. Confirms how I've thought and what my mother taught me about eating naturally and well. I do wish this information was more widely disseminated as so many people just believe all the propaganda as to what is a healthy diet, which may very likely be a truly unhealthy diet. And, so many people are angry at people who advocate eating healthy, grass-fed beef and other natural meat proteins as part of a diet because they accuse us of destroying the planet. I wish people wanted to learn and not just listen to and adhere to soundbites from propagandists.
Very informative. I learnt a lot on this video. "Most chronic diseases are driven, not on how many plant or animal foods you eat, but whether or not, you have insulation resistance." "Check your insulation resistance". I will as soon as I can
Only 10% of humans are not insulin resistant. So eating vegetables is only good for 10% of the human race. The rest should not eat vegetables, or at least very little
@@garyschneider2063 except that eating more vegetables and less refined carbohydrates can help people become more insulin sensitive (LESS insulin resistant), so EVERYONE should eat more vegetables. Get outta here with that crap
19:20 so how is it that I experienced a few moments of blindness while in deep ketosis, given that there are some glucoobligatory nerves related to sight? Someone please explain this to me.
I would start blacking out (may seem like blindness?) when hypoglycemic on a carb-based diet which would stop if I laid down. Being keto (with or without plants… tried both) keeps my blood sugar even as I am burning fat for fuel and I then don’t experience blood sugar crashes, migraines, need for a nap after meals etc.
@@HammyGirl999 I really doubt you should be doing keto with plants though. No, it's not a blacking out thing. It was actual spot-blindness. Nothing too bad or permanent. Possibly something akin to a numb leg or something.
@@bluellamaslearnbeyondthele2456 Could be an ocular migraine. Can be triggered by some foods, or lighting conditions. It’s a constriction of blood vessels in your retina and can appear as zebra patter distortion or blind patches. Nothing to do with keto as it can happed to people on any diet.
There is such a large range of biological/physiological variability that some people can, in fact, do well on a wide variety of diets. I know a lot of healthy vegans, carnivores and omnivores. Do what works for you. I agree there shouldn't be "bashing", but the biggest bashers by far have been and are vegans. If you are not one of those awesome! But most vegans I know come across as if they have some kind of moral high ground...which they don't. Most of the charged emotions we see from carnivores are push back from the years of bashing by vegans!
I try not to be one of the bashing vegans, but I do try to live in an ethically consistent manner while pursuing strength and health. I do think the emotionally charged pro-meat/pro-plant positions never lead to any enlightenment from either side. Also, I do agree the movie had some half truths. The point that I want to get across is a fully vegan diet can be healthy and optimized with whole foods and yes some supplementation (B12, DHA, K2).
Actually, this is the OPPOSITE of what actually happens under carnism..... Vegan ideas are propagandized against from the day we are born. We are normalized under carnist beliefs unless we are the less than 1% born to vegans... Vegans are shamed, even in the way you are doing right now, for believing that animals shouldn't be abused, getting categorized as being too harsh or violent, or "bashing"..... Saying that meat is animal abuse is a demonstrable fact, its not bashing..... Its standing up for victims, and trying to defend the defenseless.... Yes, some vegans are A-holes or narcissists or both, but that's the vast minority. The things said by carnist narcs are just as bad if not worse.... Yes, they threaten just as much.... Ethics are meant to be debated and discussed, so vegans have every right to say what they say about what we do to animals, so long as it's true. If we ethically agree that animal abuse is bad, then of course vegans have moral high ground.... You say carnivores so nonchalantly as if there aren't victims experiencing horrific suffering in order to satisfy your tastes or perceived health benefit.... Vegans simply using words to call out the abuse is NOT bashing in a negative way.... If vegans are committing violence, then I'm on your side that this should be condemned, but to categorized vegan activism as anything other than an honest ethical movement is ignoring the majority of the evidence
@Sirius White No, anthropology shows that we were not heavy meat eaters... Why do your jaws move side to side? Have you considered the significant differences between you and an actual carnivore?
"HT#5" is really nowhere near half true. Brain _can_ get most of its energy from ketones and even seems to prefer them according to some studies; for the rest, as we all know, gluconeogenesis exists.
She's on the right track but missing the big picture. It's not just about missing micro-nutrients. It's also about toxicity, anti-nutrients, gut damage and auto-immune disease. It's also about the metabolic syndrome group of diseases. Plants can provide most of the nutrients you need, but will fuck you up in the process.
I don't know man I know a lot of people who lived as vegetarians for a period of 30-40 years or more and people who are vegans for a period of 15-20 years. They don't seem to have any health problem or something. But, industrialized or processed meat/food is bad for your health. Food optimisation is necessary. Yes, there are some vegetables which can cause harm to the body, but that again depends on the quantity we consume. Most of that harm can be avoided by Simply taking a little care
@April MacDonald Plants are largely toxic and fundamentally not needed . Yes dose makes the poison and 88% of the US population is metabolically unhealthy and already on 70% plant derived foods . Yes most of those are highly processed still there are no essential carbohydrates needed in the human diet! ZERO.Just at the 2015 DGA.
Being vegan is great because I love all animals. Does that not sound better than saying being vegan will help me be skinny. Health has nothing much to with looking good in a bikini. It just sounds better to say save the animals.
I'm really glad that there are actual vegans in this comment section. Like I really applaud your efforts and I see your arguments for animal and earth health. I eat meat but have radically reduced my consumption of fast fashion, single use plastics etc etc. We try our best to live by our values. But it's important to know that you might have to take some extra steps to look after your health if you choose to go vegan and to be aware of any symptoms from nutritional deficiencies. Keep well and stay healthy :) peace
@@donaldevanshennings7732 “I change my diet at thirty years old and I had all my personal best after thirty years old with a vegan diet Carl Lewis” seems like you guys are fighting windmills
@@doddsalfa who is Carl Lewis and who cares? If your diet keeps YOU healthy its good for you. Doctor Ede is giving you the information you should have to ensure your choice of diet is healthy if you want it to be. I suspect that the number of people turning from vegan to lchf or carnivore is because of deficiencies they did not rea.ise.
Hmm. Why do religions encourage vegetarianism, a lot of the world was encouraged to be veggie way before the WHO et al, Lancet et al. I’m baffled, but many people were veggie before the propaganda
This is so so ridiculous..Crossfit not only posting a video of some psychiatrist specialised in nutrition talking against vegan diet but also follows with a video teaching recipes with bacon..Don’t care about the financial disclosures of this lady (btw she’s involved in the keto diet BUSINESS) but would like to know Crossfit foundation / Greg G. financial disclosures and their sponsors! Mr.Greg, are the vegan or plant based diets really the biggest concerns to tackle and to build a society with better health, less obesity and better nutrition?! 🤣 I’m vegan and crossfiter..so is James Newbury..so are many others..guess we’re in big health troubles then..but I’m glad you all worried about us..or are you worried with the finances of your foundation donators that as per your policy can also remain anonymous 🙈
A vegetarian or vegan diet is a hell of alot better than a Standard American Diet, that is for sure, but an animal bssed diet is the optimum diet for health
By all means vegan friends, continue doing what you do; but here's some links to a few fun studies I would recommend reading for your personal edification since we all have the time in the world with this quarantine: 1) www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19678968 2) www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10584048 3) www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15212752 4)www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2117006/ 5) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/...0.2005.00467.x 6) www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5598028/
Geez, how many time do we need to repeat it, veganism is NOT a diet! The diet is called 'plant-based' diet or whole food plant based diet. Great MD promoting a low carb diet. What a joke.
It's very easy in this day and age to be healthy on a whole foods, plant-based diet. Why contribute to animal torture and death when you don't have to? Industrialized farming practices (where 99% of the food we buy originates) is horrifically cruel. Watching Earthlings or Dominion if you doubt this. If you are afraid of not getting a certain nutrient (which is questionable) then just take a supplement. Thousands of people live healthily on plant-based diets. It's also much better for the planet. We have a choice, and that's the ethical way to go.
Until you have practiced a vegan diet and experienced the benefits you are not in a position to judge. I have been vegan for over 30 years - I am healthy, energetic and not or ever have lacked in B12 or any other nutrient. I am not vegan for health reasons, I am vegan for the billions of animals who are oppressed, exploited and slaughtered for their body parts and excretions, for the wildlife who are losing their habitat to support infrastructure like slaughter houses and feeding lots for animal ag. We do NOT need to consume the flesh of nonhuman animals to be healthy. The impacts of animal ag are responsible for covid and many other zoonotic diseases impacting humans. The flesh industry may not be paying you for this presentation but your findings are way off track.
Until you have practiced a keto diet and experience the benefits, you are not in posisition to judge. See the problem with that logic? How do you know that the plants wanted you to eat them? They're living being too.
