There's a lot of potential problems with 100% plant-based, indeed. But people gotta do it carefully to actually get the benefits & therefore really help the animals & environment. #ResponsibleVeganism
@@mikeskylark1594 yes especially if it is processed. cutting out processed foods i and being plant based is the key. it worked for my mom at 83, she got off all meds doing this..whole food plant based
U wish you'd interview more black vegans who a social media stars or what ever. Black people need more relatability because when our diet is bad it's the absolute worst. I recommend londonnigerianvegan and nigerian vegan, the last girl does african style pop up shops that are totally vegan. Also more muslim vegans and indian and east asian vegans would be good. Just a suggestion. You don't have to do it though.
I find it strange that so many cardiologists recommend a plant based diet yet most people will take as gospel what Joe Rogan or some bro down the gym tells them. Crazy world we live in
It's because professional institutions have established a solid reputation of outright lying and misleading the public on numerous occasions over the years. People are right to show suspicion towards these "authorities."
Thank goodness someone sensibly answered the question about why certain people have quit veganism.."I haven't talked to any of these people so I don't know." Intelligent man.
@@banishedfromthedwarfplanet530 i dont think it is possible to find out what happened in a young person's life if you dont know that young person. And how would Dr Kahn ever be able to get to know all those young exvegans? They dont even know each other except for youtube presences. Everyone else is making many grand pronouncements about why this exvegan or that exvegan failed by diagnosing their failure through analyses of their youtube videos. I dont think any of them have figured out anything.. whether they apply chro nometer analyses to the said youtubers reported food intake or whether they just spout off about how harmful raw food diets or juice fasting is for the body and that is what the exvegans were doing so that must b the reason they failed. So if you dont know the exvegans and their history it is very wise to just say i withold judgement because i just dont know them. Ignorance is spouting off an opinion when you have no evidence...and have no way to get evidence.
betzi b>> I agree with some of what you said, but there is more to it than that. RU-vid can tell you some things, but there are other ways to get a more in-depth reason for vegans going back to animals foods. All it takes is some research, and you can find lengthy and detailed reasons in various articles and blogs, often by the ex-vegans themselves, or people who have studied the phenomenon, including other vegans. You don't necessarily have to know someone to know what their motivations are for any given behavior, assuming they are being honest. And why would they lie if they were staunch vegans with a high "moral" or health agenda before they went astray? If you don't know the reasons, or if Dr. Williams doesn't know the reasons (though I suspect he was being untruthful,) I will tell you. And it's not a "grand pronouncement," but rather knowledge gleaned from reading in-depth interviews and essays from the vegans themselves. The vast majority of vegans who go back to animal foods do so because of failing health. Now, just like many people will jump to conclusions like you said and mention raw foods or juice fasting as the reason, many vegans also jump to conclusions, (or outright lie,) and bring up the same tired excuses. Say them along with me.......they "didn't do it right." They were "not eating enough calories." They failed to supplement with the necessary (and seemingly ever-growing list of) vital nutrients not in a vegan diet. They had no will power. They were never REALLY "in it for the animals." They were corrupted by omnivore family members or a carnivore society that frowned upon them. I know you've heard them all and probably used a few yourself, but it's hogwash. They got sick because plants are simply not enough to support good health for the majority of people. Yes, I know you can come up with some examples of those who can, but that is meaningless. It's overall tendencies that count, not the exceptions to the rule. I can point to total carnivores that are perfectly healthy, does that prove all vegetable foods are bad for you?
@@banishedfromthedwarfplanet530 oh, Banished, maybe you are right about that. I sure dont know. I certainly could say all those statements along with you...heard them plenty. I dont fault people for eating meat...shoot i dont know anyone who eats like i do. I havent tried to figure out why those young people gave up veganism really. I work with young people and i dont try to figure out much that they do because in a little while they usually do something else. I figure im just not gonna know why. Anyway i do hope plants will keep sustaining me because if i have to eat meat i swear somebody would have to give it to me in a pill..it tastes so disgusting..but then i never did learn how to cook either. Thanks for your honest response. I can see your points.
betzi b>> When you say you don't know anyone who eats like you do, what do you mean by that? Are you partaking in some kind of bizarre ritualistic way of eating that was originally practiced by the ancient tribes of Babylonia? At any rate, good for you that you can sustain yourself on a vegan diet. I tried it myself for almost a year, but my mental (insert joke here) and physical health took a terrible downturn and I had to go back to eating at least some animal products, mainly fish. That brought my health back up to where it was before the vegan diet. I agree that it is mainly young people who give up on a vegan diet, but don't forget that there are plenty of middle-aged and older vegans who give up on the diet also. Some of them were vegans for decades. The depletion of the stored nutrients in your body will usually begin to downgrade your health after months or maybe years on a vegan diet. At least in most cases. Hopefully, you are an exception. I would hate to think you were forced to eat something you find so....so.....icky. But then again, I bet if you tried some meat that was prepared my a master chef, you would find a way to choke it down. Again and again and again and..........
Dr. William was born the same year as my brother Didier. He looks good. My brother died from heart arrest 3 years ago. Yet he was super athletic. But he had high blood pressure and ate the traditional French diet. I was trying to talk him into a plant based diet. I sure wish he was still here with me. I am going to miss him until I die. Prevention is best.
Isabelle Zablocki Very sorry for your lose, I have a French friend with a diabetic child, has put the poor little lad on a dead animal keto diet🙄😔 No language or doctor data, will stop her feeding carcinogenic dead animals & 💩artery clogging dairy, to her poor son, so sad watching it play out!!!!
I've been a vegan for 8 years now - 3 years ago I changed to SOS free (salt,oil,sugar free). I have no regrets and feel great and got rid of arthritis in my hands and knees and lost a lot of weight. I'm definitely not going back to meat. Dr. Williams is a very thoughtful well-spoken person. Enjoyed the video.
wow that sounds extremely hard to do. I guess it could work on the countryside though, where one is not constantly tempted by delicious food and advertisement (I just had a bowl of sweet tofu pudding with red beans and cooked peanuts)
V Fran love that-SOS! I was somewhat of a junk food vegan, and since I went sugar, oil free I feel amazing and as you pointed out, dramatically improved my arthritis. If you still have any issues, you might check out The Whole Food Plant Based Kitchen. Jill’s anti inflammatory smoothie is the cure!
The22726 Veganism😂👏🏼Is often linked to a journey, Our hsehold went vegan, no sugar instantly followed, I have trouble eating some fruits because of sweetness😂 weird bcoz I made desserts in the past, Then no oil came, cooking with a wicked home made stock made with dried sea weed as no salt now😂. You just keep getting healthier as a vegan person👏🏼👏🏽 As doc Neal Barnard explained it only takes 3weeks for our taste buds 2adjust, I wake up dreaming about kale & scrambled tofu now😂😜check out 5&10min vegan meals by The Happy Pear👍🏻 then you won't need to eat out with all those sweet😖 oily🤐 meals. Good luck with your journey👍🏻👏🏽🙏
I'm not sure how your nervous system would work without an intake of salt? Electrolytes? We all agree sugar is bad! Seed oils are not real foods in the sense we've never eaten them until industrial processes were developed to extract them for use on machinery and then, being entrepreneurial, tried to think of a way of turning them into a cheap 'food' for humans. The data on redmeat by WHO was based on a study that was so tiny an increase to be meaningless. If you have look into who is on these panels and who funds them it will be an eye-opener.
Couple points: 1. The Adventist study 2 accounted for compounding factors such as exercise, smoking etc. 2. Consuming vitamin C rich foods can also aid with iron absorption.
"I was focussing on the fact that so many friends of mine now that I'm getting above 60 were having heart attacks and so If I could upset a few people and get them to read more about nutrition, then that's a win!" Dr Kim Williams
I think that you shouldn't give so much attention and credence to those ex vegans. They are few really, but just got a lot of attention because they were on RU-vid. Most were also quite foolish with water fasts and extreme diets. They don't represent vegans with common sense.
Klaus, way to go with this follow-up interview! I absolutely love Dr. Kim's well-rounded answers and his recognition when there is no data (or it's too limited to be definitive).
Another Doctor with a reasoned and rational approach to nutrition. There is no magic bullet,no matter how healthy we stay, we will all die, but If living an extra 5 or 10 or more years is associated with constant suffering or medication, than I would rather eat plant based. We are improving the lives of our fellow creatures as well as the environment in edition to our own I know I'm stating the obvious and preaching to the choir, but maybe ,just maybe someone will start to take the message seriously, at least for the children,whom I often see wobbling along, as overweight and ill as their parents. Cheers, Rik Spector
Frederick Spector So sad when you see those poor kids out of breath just because they rushed across the rd, watching their obese parents!!! Handing them more slop2 wash down the cancerous bacon sausage greasy white roll, &you know they will be having more for dinner:(
I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and last year I put the Keto diet to the test and it made my disease escalate like crazy! My C reactive proteins were the highest they had ever been and I was sicker than ever. It was awful. Anti-inflammatory plant based diet keeps me healthy and happy.
Helen Spencer I also have Rheumatoid Arthritis and tried keto. I had to get off it fast. My inflammation and CRP were soooooooooo high. I was miserable and I gained weight.
I have ra and heart disease. Went plant based. Off all heart meds and almost off all ra drugs. Lost 90 lbs. No pain or angina. Gym 6 days a week and back working on building sites as painter. Saved my life!
It's been 2 years...how are you all doing?? I kept seeing stuff about oxlates, phytic acid & teeth problems etc so I was nervous to try and stick with it for a long time. I also got discouraged I wasnt losing weight as fast as I thought I would, but I did feel better overall and palpitations disappeared when I did do it. Stories like these give me so much hope that it's worth sticking with! It's just worth trying for yourself and seeing how your body responds!!
Lol. Probably you have done bad keto as keto needs some information to do as well. It is not a diet but more like a lifestyle and probably you dont do intermittent fasting. Dont blame keto if the problem lies in yourself
I've been doing Keto successfully for 3 months and am watched this. Looking for the truth and no biases. Hard to determine because everyone seems to have peer reviews, journals, studies, doctors backing their argument, etc. Amazing it's 2020 and we STILL can't agree on a diet for human beings!
I have been working out for a long time, I started in 2004 and I have tried all kinds of diets. I'm here now watching this vlog because I just quit doing keto diet yesterday. I've been on a keto diet for a few weeks and I noticed that I didn't lose weight at all. What really worked for me is the calorie deficit diet or fast 800 diet and that is already tried and tested by me. I noticed that on keto diet, my waistline increased. I was on OMAD with intermittent fasting, but it wasn't really effective for me which is quite disappointing. On a low-calorie diet, I could lose weight in an instant and I can easily see the improvement of my weight and waistline in just a week. But on keto diet, my abs disappeared even if I was consistently exercising every day. I just tried the keto diet because I've heard a lot of benefits about it like treating diseases, clearing up the skin, lowering blood sugar level and what I liked the most is, it would make you lose weight EASILY (that's what they claimed) and what happened to me is the opposite, I literally gained weight considering that I was on a strict keto diet with intermittent fasting. When I was on low-calorie diet, my weight was 43 kilos and then it became 49.9 kilos after 5 weeks of doing strict keto diet. I feel better when I don't eat fatty foods, I feel lighter. Adding fats on my diet really is against my will but I had to, for the sake of keto diet. Before I began doing this type of diet, my waistline was 23 inches and now it's 27 inches and this is mentally draining for me. It sucks big time! Keto Diet is not really for everyone. I also don't like the amount of restrictions on this type of diet, the keto flu, leg cramps and bad breath are outrageous! For active people like me, I really need my carbohydrates! And now that I'm back to low-calorie diet, I feel a lot better knowing that I could eat anything I want without feeling guilty. If you want to lose weight, plant-based diet is even so much better than keto diet.
@@KruSsie-n9t I didn't lose weight on a keto diet, either. I think it works for some people because some people are more physically active and it's basically a restriction diet for them that forces them to cut out alot of junk food they are used to. But that doesn't mean it's a good diet for everyone, and eating that much protein comes with some significant downsides.
@@Magnulus76 I agree with you. And this type of diet is not sustainable at all due to the extreme restrictions. If you're on a keto diet, eating a slice of cake (not the keto one) could immediately spike your blood sugar levels and could destroy your progress. Now that I'm back to calorie deficit diet and avoiding fatty foods like I used to, my abs are showing up again.
@@KruSsie-n9t i lost weight with the calorie deficit and keto. With the calorie deficit one i lost 8 Kilos in 3 months and i was always hungry. But with keto i lost 10 Kilos in 20 days i was also following omad . Even tho i ate once a day i was never hungry and i felt awesome. I can definetly tell that it is not just about avoiding junk foods. But like you said it isn't for everybody.
Interesting, I’m primarily meat it’s easy I’m extremely fit low carb. Happy feel great, I eat carbs but I know I can store then remove that fat. I know my body well , I guess I’m a meatarian if that’s a word. I only really eat red meat, eggs butter bacon some avo , lots of animal fat.love it
Klaus, you're increasingly asking more difficult questions. It makes things feel awkward, but I thank you for doing it. It's a good thing to get out those kinks so we're not being dishonest with ourselves or each other. Ethical veganism is important, but the scientific facts shouldn't be distorted. Maybe a tiny portion of animal products can accompany a healthy and fulfilled life, but other things can be considered to get that last tiny amount off your plate.
Genuine question: if eating animals is "unnecessary" and therefore "immoral," isn't it also "unnecessary" and "immoral" to eat processed food (instead of whole foods) because it takes more industry (and that is bad for the environment and wild animals)?
I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I recon there's truth in that statement. There's no perfect food so there is always room for improvement. You have a good point although you start working toward a philosophy like monks. So dedicated to not harming life they sweep the ground in front of them while they walk, in order to not step on bugs. Not saying that's a wrong way to live.
So when inflammatory markers are down, one tends to feel cold? @ 9:10 Wow. I'm always cold, I thought it was a sign of maybe something wrong. But I'm super healthy and never get sick. I'm happy to know that! Klaus you should do a video on that topic.
@@mnayak9348 I believe, when one has lots of inflammation they can feel hot or warm. For example, I have a friend that is very unhealthy from diabetes and high blood pressure and a bad diet, she NEVER feels cold. She doesn't own a coat and will seem just fine when everyone else is freezing. That's just an example, and does not explain the reason that those with low inflammation might feel colder than someone with high inflammation.
That's crazy!! This is my third week on wfpb and i was telling my husband yesterday that i noticed i have been feeling colder for some reason. I'm always hot usually.
Jamy Crisostomo Same here. I have been eating this way for just under a week and I’m always freezing all of a sudden. I have known I inflammation so perhaps I am already reducing it.
I've been WFPB for 15 or so years, and intermittent fasting for 8 - I now fast for 24 hours one day a week and always feel cold in the night on that day. I read some time ago that this was a sign that the IF was working.
Ive been vegan and vegetarian and stayed fat and on three meds for blood pressure and cholesterol. I changed to Keto (with animal products) for a month - boom - down ten pounds and off ALL my meds, and my blood pressure is normal. Numbers I haven't seen for 20 years. I feel great, I am getting stronger and healthier and my body is responding by dropping weight. This is my experience, and I'm sticking with. Please check out the 'other' sides info, Dr. Eric Berg in particular. There are lots of studies and meta studies that support a Keto lifestyle as well. Collect all the information before writing something off.
The vegan dude thats cold, that use to me, until I started eating ginger & cinnamon, particularly fresh warm ginger tea in winter (i chop up 6 pieces of fresh ginger & boil it in water, soon as water boils i bring to simmer for 5 mins) ...👍
Even Dr. Fuhrman acknowledges that no known civilization has subsisted on a purely vegan diet, so we just don't have the long term generational data that we have with respect to other dietary patterns. This is one of the reasons, according to him, that he is so insistent concerning proper EPA/DHA supplementation.
I am glad that he distinguished between refined carbs & complex carbs. The use & expression „carbs“ in the nutrition communities drives me nuts. Not even the plantbased doctors distinguish enough between them AND between starchy plants and non-starchy plant food! And that makes a HUGE difference when it comes to metabolism, weight & nutrition, gut issues etc.
I was surprised when he said that doing keto with plants isn't unhealthy. I've tried vegan keto and it was great but I only did it for about three weeks because I started having aggravated heart palpitations (I have a mild mitral valve prolapse), which virtually disappear altogether when I follow a high carb, low fat vegan way of eating. I found that I relied heavily on mock meats and various oils for satiety and, given the science on mock meats and oils being damaging to the endothelium as well as having similar effects on the body as animal products. How could one follow a vegan ketogenic lifestyle without relying so heavily on oils and mock meats yet manage to not starve to death? Heh. I guess that's kinda what keto is, though, a mild form of starvation...?
As someone who just wants to be as healthy as possible but does care about animals and the environment this was refreshing. We are human after all and it’s all about making conscious decisions to better yourself and the world even if it does mean you still eat a tiny bit of animal products here and there.
Troy Surratt Are u serious😳 don't care about environment or animals but u want to be healthy😏you won't be very healthy if your environment is *** they go hand in hand, don't care about animals!!! Did you watch Cowspiracy
Eating animals isn't the problem. It's the abuse and torture and unnatural conditions imposed on the animals that is the problem and that needs to change.
I'm glad you brought up the point about vegan doctors recommending fully plant-based diets based on data that includes small amounts of animal products.
@@stan8926 From what I've read, a very small amount is not considered toxic as such (even people in the plant-based Blue Zones have traditionally eaten some animal foods, especially on feast days) but the results of the Adventist Health Study would suggest that a fully plant-based diet is the healthiest.
I am vegan for life and been doing vegan keto for over 8 weeks now and it is actually really healthy if you do it properly. Yes you can eat lots of greens and some fruit because you don't count any fibre in these sort of carbs. Perhaps being a woman of menopausal age the extra fat, tempeh and organic soy products really work for my body. Doing this diet means you have to cut out heavily processed foods and wheat (not wheat gluten so seitan is fine) which can only be a good thing. Basically cutting out refined sugar is much better for you. (I will admit to missing vegan doughnuts though)!
@@zerocontentTV It keeps me on track to choose healthy wholefoods, bread. wheat and grains don't agree with me. Cutting out sugar and processed foods helps my mood and wellbeing so much. Feeling sluggish and slow metabolism has disappeared on keto. Must admit I haven't seen a doctor in 24 years but I think I'm doing ok.
Just enjoyed a steak and eggs for breakfast. Had fasted for 3 days, enjoying the effects of autophagy, low insulin levels and very little inflammation! I say to each their own, had been vegan and stayed constantly inflamed. For those in which it works, good for you!
We have been eating meat for millions of years , our bodies are adapted for meat eating bcoz our ancestors would not skip meat bcoz of some thoughts about compassion , they didn't have access to supermarkets where you can find all your plants , ..they had limited food sources and had to eat anything they could find both plant and animal .
That's so true, that with a plant-based diet the body's inflammation drops, and you can wear more layers. Last winter, I loved picking out new sweaters for my husband's hot vegan body. He looks great!
Vegan keto. It works. All my blood data is superb. A1c dropped 4 points in 2 months. Liver data is now normal. LDL was a bit high. I’m wondering if 3 or 4 months of vegan keto is a good thing. My weight is down 12 kilos. I’m no longer fat.
One of my kids just pointed me to someone (Ken D. Berry MD) on youtube and told me that I should watch it because I don't eat meat (never liked the taste), and trying to cut the cheese after reading tons of articles. I really hate the confusion people are getting from the medical profession, especially if they are trying to help themselves with lessening their medical problems. I am an academic and I understand that research can be done one way or the other and produce the results to fit the bias, but it is high time that hard, clinical science gives undisputed input. We are playing with people's lives by giving anecdotal evidence.
Dr Williams is amazing. He studies the studies, the FACTS! He says, some people may do better with a small amount of animal products (he cannot). By small, we're talking less than three servings per week from all sources "organic or wild caught, no dairy" as Dr Popper says.
13:00 he talks about low carb and high carb increasing mortality, this goes against Dr. Mcdougall, Essylstein, and Dean Ornish. So is he saying more moderate carb fat and protein and not having any macro very high? This is confusing information within the vegan doctors and different explanations. I’m vegan and confused by this a lot.
Plant-based evidence / paleo diet 9 June 2013 · "The most important support for my conclusion that we are starch-eaters is based on an observation that you can easily validate for yourself: All large populations of trim, healthy people, throughout written human history, have obtained the bulk of their calories from starch. Examples of thriving people include, Japanese and Chinese in Asia eating sweet potatoes, buckwheat, and/or rice, Incas in South America eating potatoes, Mayans and Aztecs in Central America eating corn, and Egyptians in the Middle East eating wheat.Historical Examples of Grain-Based, Starch-Based, Diets Barley - Middle East for 11,000 years Corn - Central and South America for 7000 years Millet - Africa for 6,000 years Oats - Middle East for 11,000 years Sorghum - East Africa for 6,000 years Rice - Asia for more than 10,000 years Rye - Asia for 5000 years Wheat - Near East for 10,000 years" www.drmcdougall.com/misc/2008nl/jan/grains.htm
The essylstein and ornish studies were of people who already had a lot of fat in their bodies and massive heart disease so it's possible that in these people a low fat high carb diet was better and as their bodies lose weight the fats in their body break down and are utilized by the body. In already lean people it may be better to have a little more fat in your diet.. It's really tough to know what the best way is though. So much more research is needed that isn't industry funded.
Please someone help me. What's the amount (if any), how many times a week and by what form (supplement or fortified food) should one take b12 in order to minimize the chances of lung cancer recurrence? My father removed his left lung last February due to lung cancer (stopped smoking around May and got diagnosed in November 2019) and did adjuvant chemotherapy until May 2020. Having predominantly a plant based diet for the last 3 years, he supplemented with b12 methylcobalamin 1000 mcg 3 times a week during those 3 years (he also takes vitamin d3 and omega 3 but no multivitamin). He also had surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy for colon cancer in 2015 (no recurrence since then), hence the switch to a plant based diet.
It's one thing to care about cows and pigs etc not eat them because of belief. But, it's another thing to not eat cows and pigs etc because of belief while remaining blind to all the life that dies to mass plant and harvest your plants, beans, etc. Eating local, regardless of "diet", is THE most kind way to treat the environment and animals. Research, I implore you. I wish all happiness and health.
so a plant based diet is not good for people with low platelets? I get low platelets even by being vegetarian with tons of eggs and dairy...I had to eat high amounts of meat to rise them....what do you advise for that?
Nutrienal Yeast is great for B12 and other B Vitamins. But you can get everything you think you will like from olant based foods, just takes a small amount of research.
Agree. Most plant based milks, etc. are enriched too. Most products across the spectrum even for non vegans are too because most people do lack many things.
Important also to point out that the average person eating the standard American diet have a whole lot more nutritional deficiencies than the average person eating a vegan diet. It's not hard to get all the nutrition you need on a vegan diet. You have to pay a little more attention to B12 and calcium in particular but that's hardly a big deal. On the standard American diet you'd be likely deficient in magnesium, potassium, fiber, vitamins A, C and E.
Why did he say he was cold all the time? I'm less cold after cutting animals out of my diet. Better blood flow = less cold. Plus just being more active throughout the day will make you less cold, prolly again cause of blood flow.
Wouldn't a plant based keto diet (70 fat) containing avocado, nut, seeds, greens, etc., actually fit in with an intermittent fasting protocol such as the 5 day partial fast (800 cals or less per day for 5 days) recommended by Dr. Valter Longo?
Great video & interview. I wouldn't eat the Keto diet even the plant based version. I prefer the whole plants foods based diet with no animal products and avoiding refined carbs and reducing your saturated fat intake and replacing with the good fats.
I was on animal Keto and used to jog 3 km on alternate days and twice a week of weight training but after 3 years + my health deteriorated - IBS, calcium deficiency, cramps, inflammation. Then, I switched to a whole-food plant diet- variety of boiled veggies, millets, soya, legumes, seeds, nuts, fruits etc. Now doing very good for the last 4 years - 61 years old, training in the gym twice a week for powerlifting, Olympic lifting, twice a week on animal flow, and once a week jog 2.5 to 3 km. Also in my free time, I work on few different type RU-vid contents.
He got a bit chocked up on the small amounts of animal products in the blue zones. I think it may be because the fact is the longest cultures do eat some meat.
I think the doctor is cold because his body fat level is so low! Fat is an insulator. I noticed that very thin Asians wear a ton of layers in the winter even in locations with central heating! I was amazed. Anytime I lose a lot of weight, I have been cold too.
I can confirm that. Keto with lots of animal products can / will lead to arrhythmia and further to atrial fibrillation. It will start with muscle cramps and then the destruction is on its way. When you know how reactive carbonyl compounds are then one detrimental mechanism of keto is self explanatory.
This was a really great interview, with some tough questions and honest answers. Reassuring, too, that I'm on the right track! One question though, I wonder why Dr. Kim Williams didn't mention evidence for reversal of heart disease, such as Pritikin or Esselstyn in support of plant based diets in addition to evidence from Adventists 2, etc, when you asked about basic evidence supporting a plant based diet for health?
On top of carbs you have to be very careful with Omega-6/Omega-3 ratio and getting enough vitamin, essential fatty acids. Oxylates and some other compounds inhibit protein consumption. So it is quite a hard to accomplish nutritionally healthy diet. But apparently possible. I have not tried plant based keto yet.
Hong Kong has one of the highest meat consumption per capita in the world at 664g per day, equivalent to two pieces of 10-oz steak. People in Hong Kong especially enjoy pork and beef, consuming four times the UK's average daily consumption amount. The life expectancy for Hong Kong in 2021 was 85.03 years, a 0.16% increase from 2020. The life expectancy for Hong Kong in 2020 was 84.89 years, a 0.16% increase from 2019. USA has a life expectancy of 78.7 years whilst the UK has the highest number of vegans and comes in at 81 years life expectancy. Hong Kong tops the list, yet they are the biggest meat eaters
i love this channel, its soo extremely funny that it helps me to stay keto. vegans really dont get that its about the sugar and ultra processed foods. we're on the same side and if every dirty meat eater would go keto the world would be way better as it is. Divide and conquerer is what food industry is doing. And they clearly succeed.
So confusing, re carbohydrates, Dr. McDougall recommends a very high carb diet from starchy vegetables, in particular potatoes, rice, corn, supplemented with smaller but consistent intake of veggies and fruits. He says that the body quickly adjusts to high complex carbs and able to maintain healthy sugar blood levels. He even says he cures close to 100% of his diabetic type 2 patients with his high carb diet regimen.
"If you are doing a ketogenic diet with plants, than It's not unsafe" Someone tell me how you are going to hit all your micronutrient RDI's doing a Plant based keto diet without a boat load of supplements
What about epilepsy patients? Its been proven it helps. Keto vegan is really hard. I would never do that to an epileptic child. It also reverses fatty liver. It also reverses diabetes. Some people should be on a keto diet.
12:19 where can I find this study? My sister has a lot of digestive issues and is doing some kind of carnivore keto diet and I’d love to give her some good resources that shows that eating more plant based is the way to go. If anyone has links to any of the other studies mentioned in this video I’d greatly appreciate if you could share them! 🙏🏼
sinomonbun she feels that it has helped compared to the standard swedish diet but she is definitely not good and issues keep coming back. I’d just like to give her more information and a wider perspective.
The Problem is what about people with Epilepsy and Glut1 . I was on high Carb i got thin and in liked it but my epilepsy got very worse. Its pure frustration 😔
If Dr Williams made sure he got an amount of iodine needed to fulfill all of our bodies need (somewhere between 12 - 50 mg daily), he would not be cold. It is estimated that the traditional okinawan diet contains about 200 mg daily.
I don't think peanut or soy products are safe at the first place let alone you consume those as the major source of protein. Recently I tried eating less meat though and replaced it with high quality eggs, cheese and walnuts. I still continue eating meat since i don't believe you can have a sustainable keto diet on veggies alone.
I am vegan but I wonder I should add just 1 cup milk in tea because it so easy to get calcium , protein. B 12 if grass fed,. But I am not agree that if u follow plant base then Keto diet is fine. Most expert recommend Keto only for short time like to loose weight but not long term solution.
Anybody know the b12 recommendations if you are over 60 and an ex smoker? Williams seem to indicate that b12 supplementation increases chance for lung cancer in that group.
Good point about the small amount of animal products, Klaus. I've been waiting for an interviewer to ask this. I also wonder, though, why plant-based researchers have extrapolated from the data that 100% plant-based is best - and have recommended that - when the original data contained animal products. Would it not have been truer to the research to conclude that a predominantly plant-based diet, plus a little animal-based food, led to those good results? Seems this isn't a data-free zone but that, conversely, this IS the data but the conclusions drawn have ignored that small amount of animal food eaten in 'real world' studies. A study pitting predominantly plant-based vs exclusively plant-based would yield good information, I think.
One of the reasons why vegans go back to eating meat is becoming too small in body weight. I was 136lb 5'11, in 2009, I regret it due too being pre diabetic of last yr. I lm back to eating primary fruits, grains, legumes and vegetables.
in my opinion without a scientifical approach It doesn't matter much what youre eating if its whole real food and a lots of vegetables, no processed food and no added unnecessary sugar or refined carbs, then you will be fine. Here and there on special occassions a cake self made of course not processed shit that you buy in a grocery store is not a problem, sometimes we should enjoy life and don't be to strict.
Does anyone know where I can read more about what he said that being cold is a sign of a healthy heart? I've noticed that since I started eating WFPB I have gotten colder and this really interests me
The research compared life expectancy with meat consumption among the populations of 175 countries based on data from the Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations. Researchers found that countries with a greater meat intake also have greater life expectancy
@@fignewton8690 yes Excluding Pharma medicines, Treatments, Doctor visits, Therapies, Surgical interventions etc . Lol then you live up more than 50-60 years ? First look at US life expectancy and most people still eat non veg and carnivore diet.
@@rakshithsridharan5078 I could careless about the fraudulent USA medical research funded by big pharm. They have their hand in the money tiller and could care less about peoples health in a trillion dollar business! This plant based diet associated with processed grains, seed oils, plant leaves, stems, leaves, seeds and roots (which are the most highly defended parts of the plants) can cause a great deal of oxidation and inflammation in people. Not to mention the standard American diet causing metabolic syndrome in most people which includes large midsection, high blood pressure, increased HA1C, fasting blood sugar, fasting insulin levels, prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, increased triglycerides and decreased HDL. If you are vegan and it works for you fantastic! Many people are sick, metabolically wounded. Go to the supermarket and look around. But if another dietary lifestyle works to make another more healthy, why would you deny them good health because of an ideology?
