Yes! I had osteoarthritis so bad I couldn't play the piano anymore UNTIL I eliminated dairy and oils. 100% WHOLE PLANT FOODS really works. My partner now rarely takes blood pressure meds and has had no gout attacks since he started eating this way. Dillon and Reebs help make it accessible and simple and delicious ❤
I got back on my healthy eating way of life and I’m down 65 lbs. Also my blood pressure is 120/62. I haven’t seen my b.p. that low in decades. I keep reminding myself “ it’s the FOOD stupid”!! ☺️
LOVED this rant! One addition to the part where you said if the doctors won't eat this way themselves, they're not going to tell you to. It's more of.....if they tell YOU to eat this way, they will eventually lose a patient because you won't need to be on the medications which they get a kick-back from the pharmaceutical companies!! The doctors NEED you to stay sick to keep themselves in business!!
I'm 27 and high cholesterol "runs in my family," as they say. I switched from vegetarian to vegan at 20 and then a few years ago went WFPB. My cholesterol has gone DOWN since my early 20s. From 170 down to 150 in just 2 years. This diet does work if you make it your lifestyle.
I’ve been depressed and completely empty and changed since a traumatic experience last year. My values, interests, plant based dietary practices, sustainability, friends, family… all gone. I hope I get on Dylan level one day. It’s been rough as hell.
I am so sorry about your experience, but by taking care of your health and eating you will be regaining control and it's the best revenge when people hurt you or life just goes bad. Hold your head high, show yourself and others that you care about your health or appearance or those who have hurt you will have won twice. Do your best to eat well, dress well and smile - fake it until you feel it, it really works. And don't wait for inspiration that might take years to come. Just start today, at the next meal. Get rid of all the junk in your house and fill yourself with delicious plant based meals, you can do it! You will learn to separate feelings from feedings once you get going and stick to a healthy way of eating. You already know what to do so be kind to yourself when others aren't. You deserve it.
@@Oystermato Why did you buy the junk? If you don't buy it you can't eat it. At the end of the day it is your choice. No point in eating well at one meal and junk later, consistency is really vital.
Thanks Dillon & Reebs for this video and yes it is better to eat whole plant foods that are real foods not fake like processed junk foods and animal based foods. Love ❤ Dillon & Reebs for all they do to help us be more healthy without rubbish foods.
. . . wow. . . I found this to be one of your best vids that has the potential to help so many people with diverse ailments. . . thx so much & God Bless.... 🥰
It was the book "How Not to die" by Dr Michael Greger that brought evidence based whole food plant based eating into my life and saved my health. Then I also read most of what was mentioned in the video. There's also the pioneer Dr. Dean Ornish. Great stuff!
Dillon & Reebs, thank you all so much for caring about the health of others and for making it easy to flesh it out by posting all the awesome content. We appreciate you!
I will admit I haven’t been the best vegetarian and my T2 Diabetes hasn’t been the best and yet my blood sugars has been under 200 lately!🎉 I began being vegetarian around 2021 and yet considering going vegan..I am the only vegetarian in my family and I have had many ailments this year alone..COPD..Keratoconus..T2 Diabetes..I am on so many oral medications for my T2 Diabetes..Thanks Dillon!! I just got onto your FB page!! One thing I love to eat is Toasted Rye bread with bananas and peanut butter❤❤❤❤❤ Keep up the videos!!🎉
Love your videos and this is a great overview to help those just getting started! My biggest struggle is traveling as our family and friends don't live near us as we move a lot for my husband's job. It is very difficult to stay on track that way as their kitchens don't have all I need and use and sometimes not feasible to travel with kitchen appliances,lol. Plus not a lot of time to reprep when visiting. I would love suggestions for how to travel with this lifestyle as we all know not many places offer quick WFPB SOS options :-) Maybe a video idea for you? ;-) Thanks so much for all you do, it truly makes a difference!!
Thank you, Dillon! I love your positive and upbeat attitude. It's inspiring just to watch your videos. And I like your emphasis on simplicity rather than perfection.
I have schizophrenia, depression, metabolic syndrome, low energy and loss of sexual vitality. It all goes sideways when you pour in dietary poisons. Now on largely whole food plant based sugar oil and salt free. I have noticed my muscle mass increase since I dropped the salt and all of my conditions have gotten significantly better by eating whole foods. It takes time and you have to pick yourself up and make a better system when you get tripped up. These videos are good. We all need to watch one or two of them every day to help make our dietary changes materialize over time.
I seriously love these videos. Such good advise to help me keep on track. Got my BP down just by eating WFPB SOS Free. No nasty side effects to deal with from prescription drugs. Love it, never going back to the SAD diet.
My brother-in-law got very very sick…like he should have been in a coma, his doctors said. He didn’t know he had type 2 diabetes!!! He got prescribed insulin (by injection in the beginning, then after a few months in pill form because it was not as severe), and eventually ZERO MEDS!!! His doctor could not believe it!!! He completely reversed it on his own by eating really healthy, and in a very short period of time. He still eats meat but he is very careful to eat well.
I was morbidly obese. Sat listening to the doctor tell me how I was at risk of all sorts of diseases/illnesses & needed to diet. He was almost as fat as I was ! I have been WFPB for 8 years & at normal weight now. Wonder if he is ?
Armed with this knowledge, I feel like my doctor's visits have become sessions in humoring my doctor. I WISH I could find a plant-based doctor without having to drive two hours.
Great one tks Dillon. I love yr "tell it like it is" 😅.... Is San Remo pasta made wth maize starch, soy flour, potato & rice starch considered WFPB ? Thank you. Take care
Can you speak more on how to reverse poor vision? When I did some research it states that eye health foods can be found in alot of animal product foods such as eggs and meats.
