Javant talks about: Changing your taste, Women fooling their husbands, His health scare, Why he eats foods he doesn't like, Exercise, Social Media, Why he quit college, His giant daily salad, Recipes for everyone,
My grandmother died at 65 from stroke...I was 11 years old and devastated. I still miss her and I am now 68, myself. My grandson was a year old when I decided I had to get serious about a plant based diet because I want to be here for him and now, also, for my granddaughter. My grandma was a good, German cook, and it killed her. I am a Seventh day Adventist and my church believes in sharing a plant based lifestyle as a way of taking care of these body temples that God gave us, but I just didn't make much effort in that direction. My Dad had heart disease and i watched while his diet and the meds he was on stole his cognitive function. He came to me one day in tears and said, "I don't suppose there's anything that can be done to stop what is happening to me?" I had been telling him for years but he just couldn't grasp it and make it happen. 💔😢 So now I spend my life trying to teach people this better way. It's so wonderful every time I find someone else who is sharing this message. You make some really great points here. Eating things even though they aren't your favorite.... it's a mental attitude about giving your body what it NEEDS!❤ And the fact that nutrition courses are not what they should be! And my doctor actually told me once that I know more than he does about nutrition and health. Thank you for being a living example of the truth that a vegan diet can make men (and women) strong, muscular and beautiful inside and out (because good nutrition also supports the brain... Frontal lobe...where our spiritual center is) There are lots of very unhealthy vegans in the world (because Oreos are vegan😉), unfortunately, who don't know they aren't doing it right. Thank you for sharing your story, and may God bless and continue to prosper you. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
The story about your dad is heartbreaking. Unfortunately, it is a common story because of the unhealthy diets that most of us grow up eating. Thank you for watching the interview, and for appreciating my efforts. I genuinely appreciate you too!
Jayant, I appreciate your direct, CONCISE vids. No small talk, and no fumbling around due to being unprepared. Not only are your vids ‘short and to-the-point’, but the confidence you demonstrate in your delivery is very motivating. Thank you!
Javant, I love your channel! You were born to do this work, and spreading the message in your style is your gift to the world. You’re so inspiring. Thanks so much!
All my social media profiles say I love animals and I don’t eat them five years ago I had a triple bypass and my heart doctor said if I had not turned vegan 🥑 I would not have been sitting in his office
What an amazing and incredible interview. As a male I really appreciate Javant's culinary approach. I have been WFPB a little over 2 years and I have found his recipes to be the healthiest I have seen. His to the point delivery is reminiscent of Dr Fuhrman. I am a Food For Life instructor so I understand his passion. Thank you both
Javant, I love all the meals you cook and your skill at presenting WFPB lifestyle to the world but in addition to this l love your kindness and the way you respond to every comment….keep up the good work❤🇦🇺
A process. We all want to have health and figuring out how to make changes to be a healthier version of yourself is such a unique journey. I have enjoyed Javant’s process and that he decided to share it with the world. Fun interview!
Just to confirm what you say here; I have been WFPB for about 4 months, after a scare about type 2 diabetes, and I have noticed the same thing; my palate has changed and I cannot imagine eating any other way now!!! Keep spreading the word, we need to help other folks get educated 😁😁😁😁😁
I love this interview for a few reasons… I love it that you are clear about it being a process of eliminating unhealthy foods little by little. I also love it that you are mindful of how ‘civilians’ could be challenged if you were to share your ‘military’ style of eating 😃. From personal experience and being Jamaican, your channel has been a lifesaver for me. Very happy the message is getting out to the world.
Hello, Speaking and sharing your truth during this time in our history where food isn't really food unless You Make Your Own, particularly in this country with all the additives, neurotoxins, GMO etc that has been legally added to our food altering how our body processes these said foods making America sick is truly a God send...❤ Over a hundred years ago a woman wrote about how we must get back to the original diet to maintain physical and mental and spiritual health and now it's being expounded on by people like you...Thank you for answering your call your purpose it is VERY much appreciated. I love your honesty, your passion, and especially your recipes ❤ they are a game changer!!!
I just discovered your RU-vid channel and I love your content. I've been plant based for 14 years and do my best to eat as clean as I can and I'm really grateful to find your channel and the fact that you are so honed in on healthy gluten free sugar free meals👍❤️, thank you for what you do brother
I like the information you share in your interviews, as well as recipes and nutrition facts you share on your channels. I have followed you close to a year now and found I gained more info watching you and Dr. Furhman than anyone else. . I'm still in the midst of making changes, because I take it slow and learn what to eliminate without sacrificing nutition. The majool dates have been my biggest accomplishment with eliminating the white sugar and helping with my anemia. So kudos to you and keep the info coming.
Love this message! I appreciate your approach of being deliberate and educated regarding eliminating and adding foods, it’s a great way to transition, in my opinion. Thank you so much for watching and appreciating! 🙏🏾
Great interview! Doctors say the same thing “Keep doing what you’re doing!”, they’ll write a prescription but not a diet plan. It’s odd how many vetted nutritional sites diet plans contradict actual healthy eating. You’re now over 100k on YT🎉 I’m excited for the app to be available and the eventual cookbook. I think it’s great you’re considerate on withholding some aspects of what you eat in a day and letting people know you’re evolving too with what you’re eating and your palate is changing. Back to eying my veggie ground for the week😃
we had parallel journeys. 🙌🏽 i was pescatarian -> paleo -> keto -> medical medium -> mcdougall -> klapper -> barnard -> esselstyn -> greger -> furhman again, another inspiring interview with plenty of great tips, thanks!
This was such a great interview! I'm not an app person, but am really excited to get your book, Javant, when it's published! (P.S. I'm one of those women who's eat WFPBNO and living with a ... mostly... carnivore. I actually showed him your recipe for sausage patties last night and he looked intrigued and said, "Hungh. Yeah, I'd try that." Victory! LOL!)
Ironically, there's no will power involved. For me, it took some will power and determination earl on, but now I love what I eat even more than my prior diet.
Javant I just rewatched this interview, you are so inspiring… I am like you..I signed up for a nutrition course at an Australian university and could not continue as the foods they said were good for you just are not… I’ve done the nutritarian course, the university of Winchester course and e Cornell..far more useful than the university nutrition course….🇦🇺
Javant, You are such a blessing to the community. I’m SO grateful for your hard work, discipline and dedication. Keep going strong 💪🏽 👏🏾and living in your purpose!
You're my hero. It was bc of you that I turned my diet around. It was awful. I was in a cycle of binging I couldnt seem to get out of. Thankfull I saw your green juice video that made me snap out of it. I know Ive commented on some of your other videos about my weight loss but Im going to update you again. Down 17.5 lbs since Oct 14th. My cravings have completely disappeared. I realize how some foods can just make you crave more and more. I eat nothing made with flour or white sugar. This combo seems to send me over the edge. I now feel peaceful and can be totally comfortable not wanting to mindlessly snack. Ive been waiting on this change for a long time and now it just feels normal. Sorry this was so long. Keep doing what you're doing. Cant wait for the app!
Please don’t apologize for the length of this beautiful message. It gives me a sense of purpose and lots of inspiration to know that my videos have helped you transition to healthier eating. Thank you so much for sharing this, I’m most of all happy that you are feeling better!!!! 💚
❤😍Great interview, Javant!!! You truly are inspirational and continue to be a valued Jem, Sir!! I truly value your transparency and continuous ability to keep it real as you share your passion and your journey with the world. I’m so proud of you!! Keep up the great work that your doing! Your improving lives!!! 🫶🏾🙏🏾🫅🏾
I lost 70 pounds, 5 years ago now, on the nutritarian diet after reading Dr Furhman’s book ‘Eat to Live.’ It changed my life. It is sad that he had some backlash from some of the other WFPB at some point. ❤ Great interview. ❤
Well, to tell the truth the concept of the GBOMBS is motivating and easy to follow but the financial interests behind some of his practices were/are quite disappointing.
@@sandracarli1110 I do agree. I dont necessarily do the GBOMBS nor buy into his vitamins etc as I do find a contradiction there. Which is why we have to be selective in what we choose to do and never blindly follow/believe in one particular route. I followed his book which had a focus on nutrients in foods and ate and still do eat a varied healthy WFPB diet.
Wonderful interview, my health scare led me to you also. You are a blessing and I hope you reach more people, your a bigger help than some doctors, who have no idea about food, just want to push meds.
Just found your channel. Very likable channel. Thank you alot. I was vegan for a year. Great bp and labs. Went off and my health is gone to shit. I'm trying to get back you are an inspiration. Thanks
Welcome! Glad you're appreciating my content, I hope it will bring value to you on your health journey. Please don't hesitate reach out with any questions about the recipes.
Watch your videos which are delightful. Great interview. I went plant-based overnight after seeing my A1c rising.....MINDSET; I know not for all. I am 83. Will look for your app; await cookbook. Bon appetit!
Love this interview with Javant and hearing about how it all started and where your at now. Love your channel and all your recipes, oh and also love the way you dress, it’s like a cooking fashion show.
I love that your diet is individual for you. We all grow at different rates. I concur, I eat what is healthy. I can become accustomed to the taste.I absolutely LOVE YOU. I am a RN . I Ve taken nutrition. I don’t agree with it what I was taught. However ,I can apply those scientific and academic things that I’ve learned.❤
I love this message! It is really motivating to me that you appreciate my efforts and approach, so glad that you have subscribed! It sounds like we have lots in common. Thank you!!!!
Yes, I agree, there is a difference between being tired and being sleepy. I went plant based nearly 20 years ago and when I share that fact with people it seems to mess with their brain. Thanks to you, I'm moving towards whole foods. THANK YOU so much for your passion. ❤
Terrific interview. As an ever evolving nutritional eater, I too resonate most with Dr.Fuhrman and am so happy to have discovered Javant and HealthyEatingVegan on RU-vid a few months ago. Unless I missed something, I have not yet seen the mentioned all encompassing app that was due out in November?
Javant I love your work, I thought I was doing well with my meatless eating….but you took me to a whole new level. I am totally loving, and appreciating you right now!! Thank you!!!!!!
Javant, I really appreciate your channel. I have made the change to prepare food without overt oils and your food is making it easy for me! I particularly appreciate the vegan meats, my carnivore husband even likes it!!
You are an amazing human. I can’t wait to download your App and I’m excited about your upcoming cookbook. I thank God that I found your channel…timing is perfect!!
Javant, I was diagnosed with Crohne’s about 7-8 years ago. When I said to my gastroenterologist « I guess I’m going to have to change my diet » (which was really not very good), my doctor said to me « Oh no. Food has nothing to do with Crohne’s! ». I didn’t believe him, so I did (slowly) change my diet and within 2 years my GI gave me a clean bill of health…??? What??? Once you have Crohne’s, you have it for life!!! So he modified his diagnosis to maybe I had a virus that was mimicking Crohne’s, blah, blah, blah. So, since then, I’ve gone vegetarian (cheese is so hard to give up!), but was eating way too much junky « vegan » foods. Since discovering you on RU-vid, I have felt inspired to eat better, more wholesome, home-cooked meals. I’ve lost a few pounds in the last week too! My changes are gradual but moving forward towards a healthier lifestyle. Thanks for being authentic to your true self and to your purpose! 💕
Javant, you're truly AMAZING and INSPIRING! Thank you so much for sharing your passion with the world. I've been following you on Instagram since the beginning, and I've enjoyed watching your channel grow. Namaste🕉
12 1/2 minutes in and I find this intriguing, fascinating and very informative. I want so much to be as disciplined as you, however I realized it's a lot of relearning and changing of behaviors. I love many of your recipes and because of that I'm slowly changing my diet to incorporate your methodology. Thanks for educating us on healthy living and the importance of consuming plant based foods
🌱🕊💚Like Javant said, mindset does play a big part. It’s about how badly you want to change & improve your health…for now…& for your future. Javant’s content makes the transition sooooo easy, flavorful, satisfying, and healthy.
Thanks for sharing your passion for the good life on youtube! I'm already vegan, but you offer so much more creative and thoughtful variety. I've learned a lot and am inspired. Your presentation and approach make this lifestyle more appealing, simple and accessible to the average person and to those of us already on the same path, but, who want to grow and expand. I can tell y'all eatin' the good stuff because the ladies and Mr. Javant's skin glow.
What a wonderful interview Javant. Thank you for sharing your journey to a healthy plant-based life❤ Congratulations on your achievements and future endeavors👏🏽👏🏽
I will say this, not flirting. You have a confident presence about yourself. I admire your tenacity to change the way you went about preparing food, and because of that, we get to learn from you and modify the way we eat as well. 😊
Thank you! I’m putting the final touches on it. It should be available in January. I will be posting lots of promos here and On IG soon. Trust me, you will see lots of info about it. Please let me know if you would like me to tell you more about it right now, and I will. Thank you for asking!
Great interview everyone! Javant, I hear what you say about not publicizing what you eat. However, I would be INSPIRED by what you eat and not deterred. I would like to think many more of us would be too! I would love to know what you eat and the rationale behind the 90 foods that you eat. LOVE YOUR ENERGY, ENTHUSIASM and DETERMINATION!!!💪🥦🍅
I am putting the finishing touches on it now. I will be doing lots of promos for it soon, so please stay tuned. The App is one of the most important projects I have ever put my energy towards, so I love that you want to know more!!! It will have more than 300 recipes, as well as lots of other helpful features. It will give weekly meal plans and the ability to choose and custom create your favorite recipes into your own personal meal plans. It will be available for phone and desktop, and have the ability to print recipes and grocery lists for recipes you want to make. There will be videos of me walking you through my pantry, fridge, and freezer, and providing tips on how to stock your own. I will also show you all of my appliances and share all of the brands I recommend for foods and appliances. There will also be videos covering supplements, how to cook grains ( quinoa & millet ), tips for cooking oil-free, what are the healthiest foods, sleep, positive mindset, and several additional topics.I will also have lots of videos demonstrating my sensible approach to exercise and fitness that I describe as "consistency over intensity." Finally, there will be a calendar for people to schedule virtual cooking sessions with me for both couples and individuals. People can also schedule general Q&A sessions with me. So, it will be very comprehensive and offer lots of guidance information, and support, with new material added weekly. My hope is that lots of people will find the App helpful and empowering! It should be available in early January. Thanks for asking!
Listening to you you are a male version of me-I own a Pickle company Homemade, Pickles they are called “The Love Pickles” I also support and promote healthy alternative snacks for children /which I have enlisted a Bakery friend to create them- I also am joining a gym in January 2024 Because I have requested to the powers above to live to be 100 So I also eat homemade 95% of the time And always trying to find a healthier wet version - So I can have my cake and eat it too lol You are super fantastic Congratulations on your journey, onward and upward I am proud to see that. We are not following some of the generational, eating habits, and it is recognizing we do have choices.
I cannot wait for the app and cookbook! I love your recipes! I started following Dr Fuhrman 10 years ago and following him made me so much healthier! ❤
Thank you for your interest! The App will be available for purchase. I am currently putting the finishing touches on it, please stay tuned! Yes, I did the program with Dr. Furhman 🙂
"Keep doing what you are doing" is what many physicians say so they can just keep doing what they do and push medications as a way to discount our healthy eating but they really just don't want to get into the conversation.
I wouldn’t give a suggestion without knowing a lot more about you, and your situation. There are some general core principles that apply to most people who are trying to lose weight healthily. However, there are also lots of variables that can affect how a person’s approach should be tailored. My HV Support App will be a great tool for information and guidance, as well as over 500 recipes. Also, feel free to DM me on Instagram if you’d like me to elaborate through voice messages.
I haven't heard of that connection, so I am not sure. The idea is that it keeps the calcium from getting oxidized and farming hardened calcium deposits.
Brother please, please, please point us to the place where we can get all the authentic ingredients that you promote. Your meals are the only vegan meals that is not a hassle to make. For instance, there are so many companies that sell fake product ingredients. There was a big olive oil scam that was a billion dollar scam. People thought they were getting authentic olive oil but they were getting unhealthy LDL oils. Also, I was taking men’s vitamins from GNC and discovered the vitamins were loaded with vegetable oil and canola oil. It was so terrible that it cause my LDL cholesterol to rise and I had to stop using it immediately. Also, do you know a way to lower LDL cholesterol fast? Tip: I think it would be solid if you could should people how to make their own vitamins and you could sell them your at home self vitamin making kit. I have traveled the world and realize that the United States is a place of business not health.
I will be sharing the brands that I think are important to use in my App. It doesn't include any oil, but there are some foods that I only buy from specific brands. I do take a few supplements and I use an incredibly clean, well-balanced vegan protein supplement that I recommend.
I'm a gym guy about to go WFPB. Do u take protein supplements or r u gold standard plant protein? Am buying the book... 😊 PS can u add to ur recipes if u can freeze and for how long or shelf life?
I've been posting on social media for a little over a 1 1/2 years, and the topic I am asked about the most in my DMs and emails is protein and supplements when eating a vegan diet. I spent about a year researching this and speaking with top experts ( I will be posting my conversation with Dr Gregor soon ). The information that I read and was taught caused me to decide to start supplementing with protein. I found a really good company that sells a vegan, organic powder that is also third party tested for purity and has an excellent amino acid balance. I have been taking it for about six months, and boy have I become more muscular! I will post a video discussing the protein and supplements I am taking next weekend, please check it out. Thank you for watching and appreciating the interview!
