Awesome video bro! I've been a vegetarian for 2 months, and on a vegan lifestyle for 2 weeks! I feel like a new man! My attitude has changed TREMENDOUSLY!!!! I smile more and have lots of energy! And no more joint pains!!!!!
I never had a problem with my blood pressure, but I was prediabetic. After being vegan my a1c went way down into a normal range. I get so much shit for being vegan. I have to just ignore it though and be healthy for myself. Good to see other people healing themselves too the natural way.
ravishing221: How long were you on the vegan diet when you noticed the change in your blood pressure. And, do you still have pre-diabetes or dis you reverse it?
@@consciousmoviereviews9730 I had high cholesterol and high blood pressure to point where the doctor warned me to do something about it. She also told me I can be diabetic soon if i dont do anything. It gave me a health scare so I slowly went vegan. Around half a year later when I was fully vegan, I went for a checkup and was glad to find out that all my health problems went away. Now I'm close to 4 years vegan and I'm not going back.
@@mechicanotv2751 Congratulations and good effort at reversing what many consider irreversible. My husband and I attended a Diabetes fair in town and some of the attendees could not believe you can reverse Type 2 Diabetes naturally because their traditional Western medical doctor told them they have to live with it. One man wanted to get into a nasty argument with me. I had to let it go so his beliefs won't be challenged. Too bad, so sad.
@@EatRightGuy I just came across this. Your videos are very inspiring & informative. I really want to transform my diet. Are you still vegan? Hope you are well!!!
Thanks for Sharing Your findings. I was looking into Vegan Diet after having some celery only today and felt great at that point Vegan Diet cross my mind I looked into it on utube saw your video and u looked the Picture of Good health + Sincere so Yes will Try it! Thanks Again. All the Best.
Even though this video is a year old, I just came across it and it was very helpful. Thanks for sharing your journey. I’m encouraged to continue mines. ✌🏽
Being a woman, when I went plant based, I lost all unnecessary weight I didn’t need anymore, my hair grew 16 inches and it became very thick, my skin was very clear and strong, my eyes were strong and clear, I could hear better, I produced less mucus and ear wax, my monthly cycles became manageable and stable, I gained healthy muscle, I had enough energy, and I always felt light. ✨
Thanks for your video. It was very inspiring. I had tried different eating plans, kind of using myself as a guinea pig, and a vegan diet was one of them. I had so many positive results: weight loss, clear skin, and less joint pain. I eventually went back to eating vegetarian and then I briefly tried a low carb diet, which was a mistake. I am now back to being vegan and I'm already feeling a whole lot better. I'm staying vegan this time. Much love!
Thanks, nice work on the blood pressure test, history and letting us into your world, keep this sort of personal stuff coming. Please do a what you eat in a day! No dietitians have one yet, I know I may be a lot of time and organising but from you home would be killer!!! Deakin from Australia ( vegan)
Great video bro, can you make a video on some vegan bodybuilding meals you usually eat? I think your channel can grow well if you do more videos like that cuz you have a great physique and there aren't many vegan bodybuilders so I think you could grow with that 💪🏽👍🏽
Thank you for sharing, if you track your progress, please share that too. I have thought about it my whole life, but always been weak and liked meat too much , eggs, poultry, milk etc...I am 59, overweight, low enegy, diabetic, asthma. i just watched a video by Eric dubay on ebay called off topic, the truth about meat and dairy. I am now ready, no more meat milk eggs, animal or animal stuff for me anymore. i already juice and eat my veg raw but now i am stopping all the animal related foods, going to buy a blender to make nut milk and look for some recipes to make food to replace what i am giving up. Thanks for being there. Would also be grateful if you can share any of your body building healthy recipes, i am going to start working out too.
Today was my first day of going vegan. Watching your video for motivation and information. Have had a lot of unexplainable health issues recently, have to make change for better.
Read, read and read some more then you'll be headstrong before attempting this great leap. Don't watch vegan movies. I advise watching Dr McDougall :the starch solution, google on RU-vid, Dr McDougall helped me become vegan and all his talk is aimed at over 45 yr olds. Hope I can help. Believe in your life and anything can happen
I totally agree great video I'm speaking from a morbidly obese man. And after going vegan for just a week. I'm noticed dramatic changes did I say dramatic yes my stomach has flattened I can see my toes laying in bed. And I feel so much better the lbs are dropping off so fast it's incredible how fast it works.
This is my second day on the vegan track, something very strange happened to me this morning, when i woke up, i looked at the time, i rolled over to go back to sleep (it was 7.30 am ) and something was wrong, i was supposed to be exhausted, needing to rest after an exhausting sleep but i couldn't, i tried but i had too much energy, i went to work, i am a teacher, my energy was blasting me through the roof, what a crazy lesson it was today, jumping and yelling with the kinder garteners normally i move extremely slowly as i am heavy, weak and have no strength or energy, i finished the lesson and in a couple hours i was back home, ready to crash from extreme exhaustion onto my bed, but i still couldn't normally i can't think, my head is heavy, can't remember, can't do anything, just sleep, i can only function for an hour or two before crashing but it is 3 pm now and i soaring with the eagles, this is terrible, i am getting too much done, must stop this, thank you for your video, i am going to quit being vegan now too and go back to a normal lifestyle, thank you for saving me from making this terrible mistake, now i am going to prepare a lunch of beef, eggs, milk and cheese if not for you i could have also wasted 17 years in a state of life and health, strength and energy, thank you so much. Sincerely, your newest subscriber
lots and lots of benefits... I have no desire for animal products and I'm grateful that I don't desire them. GatHouse Fitness on RU-vid FaceBook and InstaGram
I see your skin and eyes, these are things I notice on healthy individuals like yourself when eating a plant base diet. Your healthy appearance is the reason why I am drawn to your channel. It's quite clear to me that you live a vegan life.
During sport bloodpressure rises, afterwards it can drop to a lower value then you had before sporting. Did/ Do you check your bloodpressure still regularly without sporting a couple of hours before?

Great Video, thumbs up to you, have a Wonderful, Monday, sincerely, Diana Lipski, a 6 year Vegan Lady 👍, I am Enjoying your Videos and I am Sharing them, too, Awesome 👍
Hm very interesting. This might be the reason I actually do go ahead and try it. I'm pre hypertensive according to my blood pressure numbers in the doctor's office. I was told it's probably higher because I do get very anxious in the doctor's office, but if it's due to anxiety wouldn't my heart rate be higher than normal as well? My BP in the doctor's office has been as high as 140/80 and as low as 130/75. My heart is in the 70s when they check it and the 70s is pretty much as low as my heart rate goes. So I found it odd that my heart rate was at a normal resting heart rate but my blood pressure was higher than it should be. No doctor has showed any concern about my blood pressure if though I have a family history of it and I'm pretty sure I'm showing signs of heading down that road. I don't understand why they never brought it up to me that I should be doing something to help lower my blood pressure. I think I'm going to borrow my parents BP machine to see if it's still high at home and if it is I need to do something about it. I am genetically predisposed to it, both of my parents have hypertension, my mom's obese so no surprises why she has hypertension but my dad is a very fit man, he has a low body fat percentage and low BMI so I've never understood why he had hypertension because hypertension is associated with obesity not fit men. Does anyone know if this would help with tachycardia though? The only reason my heart rate is in the 70s right now is because I'm on medication to keep my heart rate down, without medication it's in the 110-130 range. I would love to fix that and get off of medication but so far I can't find anything that might actually help.
Ashley ASHLEYM you can lower your resting heart rate by consistently doing cardio. Just dedicate 20-30 minutes a day to walking or using an elliptical. I constantly monitor my heart rate and I notice that the more cardio I do the lower it gets.
I was wondering about the B vitamins. I tried to cut out beef and I started getting foggy and light headed. So... idk. I have been really thinking about trying vegetarianism. I have done veganism for a month while participating in a Daniel Fast. Idk.
I only recently became whole food plant based vegan, I cannot have gluten so that’s the only thing I can’t eat. I had to do a lot of research and learn proper vegan nutrition before I went ahead with it. Cronometer app is a great tool for starting out vegan and will show if you are missing anything of your daily needs. X
I would say learn about proper vegan nutrition and then try being plant based again! My church did the Daniel fast a few years back, but I was new to the church and was not there at the beginning of it so I didn’t know what kind of fast it was.
You know I do listen to the l RU-vid videos on becoming a vegan but no one ever calls me back I guess they don't have time to tell me. They say they want you to eat healthy but if someone telling you they don't know where to start how can we help one another I need help for the 9th Time.
I was vegan, but I personally had pernicious anemia, low B12, low vitamin D3 and intrinsic factor deficiency. Now I am "vegan" most days, every other day I eat a pasture raised egg. I think the important thing is to definitely have a plant slant in diets, yet being cautious of any possible deficiencies. Many omnivorous people for one definitely lack fiber.
I'm sure you at least heard about the Netflix Documentary "What the Health". I'd like to hear your opinion on it as a vegan dietitian. I've seen several vegan documentaries before, so I knew what to expect, but I know some people who watched it who were completely shocked. I am a believer in the vegan diet and the health benefits it can bring. I'm practically a vegan myself. However there were still some claims in the documentary that I didn't agree with. I feel like as dietitians we can't be so closed minded and have views to suggest that there is only one way to eat healthy. I know a lot of dietitians wrote negative reviews about it. If you have time to watch it and post a review on it I'd be very interested in hearing your opinion.
What the Health is the video that helped me 100% .. i started out as pescitarian to hopefully help me get closer to being vegan.. i thought it was a good documentary to show us how basically the media has been lying to us since birth..
My husband is a nutritionist and so me going vegan definitely threw him through a loop. He fought with me and argued with me about it. The B12 thing stops him too. Except he goes so far as to say that of we can't maintain our diets through our own adaptation then the diet isn't a healthy one. There's no arguing that point. He's stuck in his ways and there's nothing I can do about it so I stick to my vegan foods and he has steak and chicken for dinner. I liked how you mentioned that you were already eating healthy though. He eats plenty of veggies too and he's had high blood pressure as well. We thought it was his PTSD and constant stress from military nonsense but I would bet his BP is still high now that he's out of the army .
@@EatRightGuy the weird thing is he's the most open minded person I've ever met. It's just with this vegan thing that he's not. His explanation is a previous 9 month experience with veganism leaving him feeling terrible and his current knowledge base of nutrition. (Which I don't have so it's hard to discuss with him).
@@EatRightGuy I'm going to save this video though because it's the only video that someone went vegan after eating healthy relatively already and still getting a benefit out of it. That's another arguing point is that the health benefits most claim from veganism is because the diets of the participants beforehand likely wasn't healthy to begin with (i.e. processed foods).
Great Video, just subscribed, check out Dr.Robert Morse on youtube, If you get your lymph moving and kidneys filtering you may be able to easily regrow your hair as you commented about that, I love the raw vegan way of life, Peace,Love and Fruit!!!
Actually, anything that’s edible is meat of different categories. Hence, from the biblical text of Genesis- “ I have given you every herb baring seed; To you, it should be as meat.” So, there is meat of vegetables/herbs, meat of fruit, meat of insects, and meat of animal/livestock. Therefore, Eat Right Guy is correct in this argument.
I have a DPD bachelor's as well. The reason they don't teach about veganism at least in my school is because there is no perfect diet for everyone. Being a vegan works for you, and that's great, but that doesn't mean that its going to work well for everyone. There are some people that just cannot go vegan. I know of some people who tried, and it didn't work out well. I too am a vegetarian/vegan. I only have Greek yogurt maybe once a week, everything else is plant based. And that works for me, but that may not work too well for someone else. So the main reason they don't discuss specific diets like that in the DPD program, at least in my experience is because there will never be one perfect diet for everyone
Greg Zacarese You make some good points, but my problem is that large companies like the meat and dairy industry influence dietary recommendations to make money
I'd like to add that there is *no one specific way* to eat a plant based diet (or vegan diet as you put it). There's high omega 3, high omega 6, high carb with legumes, high carb without legumes, high carb with grains, high carb without grauns, higher protein, lower protein, even ratios of all the macros, raw high fruit, raw high fat/greens, high veg & legume...that's not even all of them. there's so many different ways to go with it. How many people do *you* know who have tried a plant diet have tried every variation available in order to determine if a plant only diet would work for them? I personally don't know any.
Why do vegans always say, "You'd eat a pig but you won't eat a dog? Hypocrite!" I'd eat a dog. Shit, I'd eat a cat, horse, squirrel and human too. They're just never on any menus.
