Vegan Forward Since 1986; Jerry Deutsch: Love is the Answer, Forgiveness is the Way 

Health is wealth!! It's unfortunate people quitting the lifestyle of vegans or vegetarians. When I get "bored" of the no meat dairy ect. lifestyle I realize it's better to be bored of food options than being bored in a hospital bed do to failing health! I'll give up and do almost anything to NOT end up in a hospital IF I have any say in the matter!! This is a good listen with Jerry Deutsch!!!!

After dropping meat and dairy, I never took back meat, but dairy called to me. I discovered the plant based diet in the early 80s, but took back some dairy after a while with some dire affects. I stopped drinking milk in about 68, but continued with yogurt, and ice cream, etc. All my joint problems, sinus infections, bronchitis came back, but I didn't connect it. It took me till a few years ago to look back at the McDougall Plan, and all the other available sites, which helped me drop all imagined help I assumed I got from dairy. Dr. Esselstyne helped me drop oil. That was a surprise, but I felt so much better. So today, my weight is down 80 lbs, I am healthier, and get only good blood test. Feeling good and living a healthy, loving life is my delight. Thanks, again for a great interview.

This was really an amazing interview. I really get this guy and his message. Truly inspirational.

Please do another interview with him. He was phenomenal.

I have been thinking exactly this for the last few years! I have to say this is by far the very best interview so far, at least in terms of making it through what appears as an insane world.. rising above and understanding deeply that our mental constructs are not the same as the actual world we live in. So relieved that I'm not the only "nut."

Man is this person wonderful, love his wisdom and spirit.

Loved this!! This is what you call elder wisdom... something rarely heard nor celebrated.... we should give more credence to elder wisdom! 💖🙏

Really like this guy’s attitude. He’s practical and not dogmatic, and he’s positive.

Great stuff, I wait for these uploads and listen to them multiple times; the motivational value is tremendous.

Love this channel! Thank you for all these awesome interviews! After I decided to leave my corporate job to simplify my life, I started working a local farmers market part time. It is amazing to see how limited information people have about about nutrition and health. Very interestingly often I am approached by people asking me what kind of produce are good for a certain medical condition. These are mostly people who eat animal products every day and they have no clue about how animal products effect their health negatively. I have recommended that they watch your channel along with other great channels and documentaries. I sincerely hope that this information is more widely spread to all people and I am committed to do what I can do to make a positive impact! Thank you for all you do!

What a genuine ENFP! When he said a vegan would stop when it's not fun anymore 😅 And stressing the fun part so much at the end. And his whole stream of thought. I could relate with so much, also having degrees in Psychology, how he mentioned so many different things that are all correlated. I hope to have his attitude and health at his age. Our only difference, I decided not to have kids, precisely for what he mentioned more than once "all parents screw up their kids"!

"I think people should do what they want to do".....EXCELLENT interview...rating in the top 5. RELEASING JUDGEMENTS leads to a healthy world. His hair is so radiantly HEALTHY, which speaks to his state of health 👏👏🏾👏👏🏾💯‼️ Thank YOU JEFF, for a REAL unscripted, genuine conversation. To know Truth is to live it, not shove it down people's throats......."PEOPLE ARE GOING DO .WHAT..PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DO"

I've been a vegetarian since 1985 and a vegan only since 2019 (I wish I went vegan earlier! I feel so much better after giving up dairy!). Way back in the early 80s, the only book I remember seeing on it was Francis Moore Lappe's "Diet for a Small Planet". Moosewood had some very granola, hippy cookbooks. Then, Dr. McDougall started publishing his books. I read every issue of Vegetarian Times from cover to cover back in those days -- I couldn't wait to get the next copy. Things have changed astronomically in the last nearly 50 years, and it makes me very proud to see the movement grow.

Would love to hear more from Mr. Jerry Deutsch. His word’s really resonated with me. Really hit when he mentioned us “having the ability to make our own decisions with informative education”. It rings true when informing others of a healthy diet as well as choosing for yourself whether or not you want to take the jab. Love before judgement ✌️

We need to make some judgments, in order to make decisions on how to proceed . We are always learning, we make the best decisions based on the most science research /knowledge that we currently have.

This guy is so cool love it

He speaks the truth!

CDC website lists around 30 recommended vaccines for children to safely reach adulthood. A lot, but not "about 72".

Wow! This guy is full of wisdom. Stop listening to your mind. He is so right about that. I would love to attend one of these conferences and make some vegan friends.

I love cabbage and onions! People don't realize how sweet they are when cooked down in a stew! Yum!

Yes, love is the answer!

Thanks for another great interview, you always find really neat people! Love them!

Agree 💯

Great backdrop ✊

Listened to the interview patiently and it’s all worth the point you made Jeff from Vegan Linked, at 52:00. You hit the nail on the head and nicely said from 52:00-52:30. Superbly put in 30 secs why this world we live in now has become such a sick world (violence that’s perceived to be ok on some life, but not ok on some other life). And violence in any shape or form to any being is the root-cause for this sick world that we have created/that we live in. Summed it up really well 👍🏻.

Freedom of choice is fine and dandy, when there is no victim involved. I do get what he means though, my judgement will not change someone.

What a great mind! I would love to have long interesting conversations with this Jerry Deutsch. It was so interesting, so thank you!

I really like this guy

He’s so right about labels. They create division.

Yay Alfred Korzybski.

Awesome guy!

He looks amazing for his age, looks like he is in his early 40's.

Wow, this guy's the rock star of veganism......or, rather, an intelligent diet or whatever you might choose to call it!! He's so convincing not just bcoz he's articulate but bcoz he's speaking the truth!!! Nobody, apart from the ego, can debunk whatever he says about a plant based diet.....& the results of such a diet are obvious in him!

Onions and carrots are part of a Dutch stew, hutspot. Together with potatoes and laurel (and often baked bacon eww).

Très intéressant & révélateur

I'm sorry this lovely guy didn't mention the horror and torture of the animals...it was all about health. Most plant eaters become vegan for the animals..we hear their screams..

Not to mention the horrible violence being inflicted upon innocent creatures is moral cowardice… A very common thing within the vegan community…😔

51:00 if you want to hear the ethical parts he gets into about veganism, I liked this part :) A very interesting man who stays open minded!

Sweet guy - 🌺very handsome

Just love his relaxed attitude but then again, he is a psychologist, a pro. ☺One question- does diversity of conditions necessarily exclude hierarchy of development? Also, a short story to share- once tried growing my own celery from the root leftover after juicing the store-bought veg, with the idea to pluck 'healthy organic' leaves for my salads from time to time. Well, could not do it - after I took care of that celery it has become sth like a friend to me . And I do not eat my friends, do you? So I can now easily relate to some ppls' ultimate ethical aspiration for breatharianism... Thank you for the interview, very enlightening.

Make the truth be known n let the heaven's falls..I like this guy

I like this mans outlook....The whole supplement thing makes me laugh. I've supplemented my whole life...and when I was eating a standard diet with animal products... I had low iron, and low bone density secondary to low vitamin D and calcium. Well golly gee....nobody was worried about me supplementing when I was eating animals...but now....oh man LOL...🤣

Clarification; although thought provoking, I agree with Vegan Linked on their points. Some of these ideas, such as on vaccines, have been fact checked, so just need to be balanced on what we accept. Thanks again. Ideas to be considered, but we need to balance by fact checking.

Have to say I call it "islands of insanity" and sometimes we can agree on a mental constructs consistent with deep feelings and actual reality...Ahimsa. he says living mindfully is in the now and each choice right now makes a difference. Understanding our mental blindfolds Ala Korbynski can inform our choices in this moment...

Great interview tks. PSE can u get us his cabbage & onion recipe ? Tks so much 🙏😊

I liked what Mr Deutsch was saying until the 52nd minute. Also, he Is plant based really because he says that he didn’t wear leather until 10 years ago and he focuses on human beings mainly, which is right, but I noticed he steers away from talking about animals. There is no such thing as “vegan mostly”. At one point he says he doesn’t like the term vegan but when talking about his non vegan family he says “vegan mostly”, which doesn’t go with what he said before. He should just say, no they are not vegan but used the term to lift them up in our vegan eyes. To me it had the opposite effect. All in all a bit all over the place but said a few good things. I don’t agree that is the best interview, I heard better on this channel. May I add I am not an obsessive vegan (I was attacked by some weird vegans on Instagram who were telling me what other movements I should join) but think that we should be proud to wear this label, I know I am. Vegan for animals, the planet and my health.

You shouldn't kill any animal. What is there that says humans are better than animal species. People would rather take medicine than to eat garden stuff to get healthy make sense to me.

The labeling is what I hate! I love animals and not eating them!

57:43 The word vegan doesn't describe dude's behavior. Dude _identifies_ his associations surrounding the word "vegan" with his perception of his behavior. Words-don't-mean, only a person does.

I really prefer hearing from ethical vegans.

Appreciate his general sentiment but veganism isn't a diet and labels aren't bad unless they limit your mindset negatively. Identifying as vegan is just a more succinct way to describe your ethics and actions around animal rights. What's the alternative: "I'm a person who is against the killing and exploitation of animals...etc"? I don't see how it implies judgement against others or limits your world in any negative way. If someone else takes it as a judgement or gets butthurt that's their problem and I'm happy to quickly filter those people out of my life.

Think this post is maybe what you refer. Natural Hygiene was taught by Natives to USA medical people & those teachings remained the law of the land up until the late 1800's when big pharma began to take over making Natural Hygiene unjustly obsolete until early 1900's when Herbert M. Shelton re-founded the orthopaedic practice at his health sanatoriums & by the 1950's he ran for potus, but big oil land grabs & big pharma swindles had a monopoly by then, also it was further corrupted by the liquor industry that had spiraled out of control as a drug of choice ever since the 1930's. So it is way past time to make Natural Hygiene a part of our daily lives again, as the once sober apple cart was upset too many times over the years by oppressive governmental inebriated addicts who have been increasingly abusing a once sound medical practice here in America for far too long. Here is my take on needed improvements for those who have yet them or even considered changing these corrupt current laws yet. Back around the 70's reagan began shutting down state hospitals to save taxes for the rich resulting in an ever increasing spiral of homeless street people & overcrowded prisons. Reagan was inebriated on his bubbly. That points to another mess up that occurred back in the 30's when they made alcohol their drug of choice as legal recreation & criminalized other intoxicants. Past time for a resolution to both these gross errors. 1- make all drugs & alcohol legal medically with supervision. 2-drug & alcohol test all law enforcement, politicians, educators & gun owners at their own expense, never as illegal recreation in use currently. Until those insane obsolete laws, rules & regulations are changed with appropriate resolutions the errors of the past will continue to escalate.

He contradicts himself several times .If you are going to have an attitude that nothing matters , how are you going to reverse the madness of the world? He doesn't make a lot of sense. He was right about don't listening to the mind, but there is techniques to quiet the mind trough concentration, then you can enter into meditation and with steady practice samadhi, and samadhi is not something from another world, it is available to anybody who has the determination to achieve it. And eating animals is WRONG , if you are really awake, you can realize that everything you experience is sacred., when I tell this to some people they come with the lame excuse that plants are alive too., that is correct but if you use common sense you can realize that is not the same to take a fruit or a ripe vegetable from a plant, to go and stab an animal, cut its head off, take the skin out, burn it and eat it, just your feeling in doing one thing and the other will tell you. This society is confused, people don't even know who they are, so if we have the attitude that if they want to eat animals is ok, how things are going to change. People freak out when they hear that the Chinese eat dogs, and they do absolutely the same., what is the difference between one animal and the other, it is just in their conditioned mind.The only difference between human beings is the state of consciousness, nothing else and we have to speak up, even if there is resistance to be able to change things.

So you're going full on conspiracy theory and anti-vaxxer? That's a shame. Vegan Linked was an excellent resource.

I agree with him on the natural immunity against COVID. The reason is because I am healthy and similar to him I eat mostly plant based whole foods. So his immunity and my immunity are health enough to fight COVID. But for 70% of regular Americans does not have the immunity to fight COVID strongly. Thus they need COVID vax.
