WHY DOCTORS DON'T RECOMMEND VEGANISM #2: Dr Neal Barnard 

I'm 76, don't need any drugs, feel great. Vegan since 1992.

Guy is almost 65 and looks better than most people in their 40's! What a legend.

Bruh, I’m a 12 year old #Vegan and I am proud.

I am 37, and this dr looks yngr than me. What The Health !!

Dr. Neil Barnard is extremely well-spoken.

Dr. Barnard for President!!

I was a vegetarian for 13 year got married and started eating meat and what she cooked for me wife and daughter are 250 and 300LBs I changed back to my old way of eating all vegetables and I feel muck better and I lost 140LBs in 13 month's I will never eat meat again. God bless you all.

I went whole plant-based two years ago and have completely recovered from several severe chronic diseases that had afflicted me for years. I am amazed by this development since I was initially skeptical.

It must have been so disheartening for him to be ignored for so many decades.. his time has certainly come though and I'm so happy he tried so hard despite.. small wins are making a big difference now

A doctor who actually knows about nutrition 😱

I started a WFPB diet 38 days ago. I have felt so good- my skin is glowing, my fibromyalgia symptoms are nearly gone, and I’ve lost 16.5lbs! I’ve never lost weight so quickly in my life- and I always feel satisfied with my meals. I’m so grateful to Dr Barnard for helping me find this new way of life!

Wfpb vegan has been the easiest diet ever. So so many times I've sat and starved myself because I thought carbs were just evil. One month after being completely vegan I realise I can eat as much as I need to feel full. My energy is booming. I have 3 small children and being so over weight from the "ketogenic diet" that I thought would help me, I felt so lifeless. I felt like I could barely keep up with them. Now more than a month into it I'm so much happier. So much more energy. If you are reading this and struggling to adhere to a vegan diet, please take this from someone who has struggled for so long with weight, arthritis, asthma, high blood pressure. All of this will melt away completely. I have my life back!

Wow this guy should be in politics

Veganism, the best thing that you can do for yourself and the World

I was a huge meat eater. I’m so happy I went whole plant based. I feel amazing!

Grateful to Doctor Bernard for inspiring me to become a vegan.I am 58 years. Today is the 75th day of turning vegan. Cholesterol level have normalised. Lost 16 pounds though eat a sumptuous full stomach Indian meal with rice, legumes, greens etc. My recovery after workout is much much faster

Dr. Neal Barnard is just amazing, one of my favorite plant based doctors! I respect his taking a stand against the food industry!

Aw I love Neal Barnard, he's so genuine!

Love this, Dr. Bernard is one of the best decent Vegan doctors out there who not only focuses on his profession and plant based diet for health, but the main ethical aspect of Veganism as well, he is my favorite vegan doctor so far.

This interviewer is so good. He asks the pertinent questions and doesn’t interrupt the reply. Very well done.

I was addicted to cheese and ice cream but I learned they're was vegan substitutes for them and easily broke up the habit especially after learning how cruel the dairy industry is.

damn he's 63yrs old in this video.. looks young as hell..

This is the way to encourage people to try a plant based diet with kindness and education not anger and shaming one to see your point of view

I have been vegan for 13 years and it's been absolutely amazing to see how much it's changed and increased in popularity. Never felt better.

dr barnard is bae

Great interview! I've always respected Dr. Barnard, but I didn't know how much he personally cared about animal rights until seeing this video. Such an uplifting perspective! Feeling very encouraged after this 😊

Veganism is the number one greatest hope for growing a thriving humanity. May all beings be happy.

I feel so humbled just watching this video. How much he's achieved and how he speaks with such grace as he talks about tackling some of the most emotionally charged issues we face. Amazing interview well done PBN

Damn Neal is looking good!

Klaus, your interview skills are better than 98% of journalists out there. keep it up!

I can't believe he's 63 years old! He looks amazing! It's strange but when I was young, my doctor told me to eat meat again. At this point, I was vegetarian for 3 years. I was living in Santa Monica, California and also unaware of the health benefits of being vegan. Now that I just turned 47 I finally became Vegan. It's hard to find support here in Texas. Although, I wonder why some doctors are against the Vegan diet? Sometimes, I feel afraid to tell some people that I'm Vegan cuz they get combative. For example, my coworkers, when I told them I was vegetarian in California took me to a restaurant. Of course, my manager ordered steak and he acted like he was killing it on the plate at the dinner table in front of me. I felt so upset, that I will not go out to eat with non-vegans. It was 20 years ago, but I felt that traumatized me. Where do I support as a new vegan? Also, as an older woman, I feel that young u tubers are hateful towards older people. Eventhough, they are vegan, they express hate towards middle-aged people which I have experienced. I'd like to find a vegan support group that not ageist. Big hugs and much love, from Texas!🤓❤❤

I am now a vegan for 4 weeks because of this kind of information. I feel so much lighter in body and mind. I hope this movement will spread because people really need to know what factory farming is doing to there body's.

Dr Barnard answered every question in such a positive way.

Man im so glad you won. Your dedication is 100%

V itality E nergy G reen A wake N ow

One year WFPB vegan, I’ve lost all 70lbs of excess weight I was carrying as well as all of the health issues I had (heartburn/acid reflux, constant headaches, heart palpitations, dizzy spells, aches and pains to name a few). I love the food and am always full and satisfied! He’s right, it’s much easier to eat vegan than to try counting calories, reducing food intake, counting macros, intermittent fasting, etc. Switching to a WFPB is the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. ❤ So thankful to Dr. Barnard and the other plant-based doctors like Greger, McDougall, and Esselstyn!

glad for neal barnard going against immense corrupt and downright atrocious industries. yesterday I did my part as well and took to the streets and campaigned for the voiceless

Jawline on point.

Veganism is growing in the middle east! It says something. Thank you for all of those who are spreading the word

I am happy that there are medically trained people like Neal, he is a hero my eyes. My own doctor in Norway Told me last week to try a vegetarian diet or if I wanted, a vega diet. and now only a few days in, I feel so much better, looking forward to the change in a few weeks or months.

Thanks for this interview and video, always great to see Dr. Barnard, he's the reason I went vegan and why my sister and diabetic mom went plant-based.

"back in an alley shooting up cheese...." LMAO!!! ....Dr Neal Barnard is such an amazing , smart , sweet and beautiful human being.....I have so much respect for him, love him! ....................... AWESOME Video Klaus!...

That's absolutely true, my husband did the keto diet and even though he initially lost weight, his cholesterol went up.

Gave up meat and dairy two years ago due to health issues. While I haven't lost weight, my health has improved in other ways. Also, food tastes better now. Thanks, Dr. Neil Bernard!

Dr. Barnard hits it on the head that change comes from culture. We are changing culture one plate at a time! Let's keep it up!!

Great questions Klaus! I usually play interviews in the background while I work on other things, but Dr. Barnard is so personable and interesting that I watched the entire video. :)

You're a great interviewer, Klaus. You don't just throw softballs. I like how you ask all these guys tough, honest questions.

Kind, intelligent, caring, and compassionate. These doctors care about people, simple as that. They want the absolute best for you, they aren't getting paid. People who are resistant to the information need to understand that💕

This is one of the best doctor interviews ever! So motivating!

I like the way you interview: your questions are interesting and concise and you give Dr Barnard space to respond without interruption. Looking forward to watching more of your interviews.

What a wonderful man. Thank you Dr. Neal Barnard

I really hope that the plant based doctors all specifically ask to have their eventual autopsies made public. I also hope this for the paleo doctors. That will be the clearest, truest test to which diet is actually healthier.

Superb job, Klaus! I will put these out on my list as you post. Hey, you may win the contest to come interview our speakers next year, too! :) Great work!!

nearly 5 months being vegan. not hard at all 😄

Absolutely fantastic. Dr Barnard is stalwart of veganism and the plant based diet, he's doing such a great job!

Dr. Bernard is my hero!

"no body says 'vaayjan' any more" so TRUE! Great interview! really appreciate the multiple camera angles.

Always thought Barnard is brilliant. So articulate and well informed - has an answer to every question and a rebuttal to every pro-animal product argument.

What an eye opening video. Great questions during this interview. I am a new Vegan and watching this video really helps me think I made the right ethical choice in changing my diet and lifestyle through Veganism. I don't have any vegan friends or family members. But I think I can try to influence them into a more healthy and ethical diet choices. Again, thanks so much for this video. Cheers!

I'm going Vegannnnnnnnnnn :)))

I love Dr Barnard's positive outlook!! this has lifted me up at the end of a shit day. 🍻

GREAT video!!! Dr. Barnard is a genius. What a brilliant answer he gave to your question about the biggest "threats" to the movement. Thank you for sharing this, Klaus.

Wow Dr. Barnard is doing such valuable, influential work! His influence within the world of policy and of course the fact that he is a Doctor is much needed and profound and far reaching. The effects of his work will leave a legacy that is likely to overtake the whole world, and he will be remembered for his work. Thank you Dr. Barnard and Plant Based News for all of your great work!!

"Your coronary arteries don't care WHY you change your diet!! "

This was fascinating! Your questions were so well crafted! Clearly a lot of thought went into this.

awesome I hope to live to see plant based eating as the norm👍😆🌱

It was seeing the thriving vegan athletes in the Game Changers the ultimately convinced me to make that change 2 years ago. I wish that I had not been so hard headed about my health, and made the changer earlier in my life, but it's understandable once you see that we've been lied to by the meat industry about needing meat. Everything about my health has gotten so much better. I see people now that are clearly sick and overweight and when I've tried to mention this diet, then get extremely defensive. It's obvious that a lot of people will continue to die early from poor diets of animal protein, and highly processed food.

FANTASTIC interview!! Dr. Barnard is not only a wealth of knowledge, but a very reasonable, compassionate and decent human being!

This was the best interview and the most uplifting thing I've seen all year. Thank you so much! 🐦

what a great interview... Dr. Barnard is truly inspiring

Excellent interview. I really enjoy listening to Dr. Barnard speak. I went whole food plant based about 5 months ago. Down 25 lbs, never felt better.

I think you were right asking the pertinent question about blurring the message. The problem that these health professionals have is that they try to communicate a comprehensive message; everything from animal rights, to health and all the way to climate change is being thrown in. The problem with that is that people at some point stop listening and tell themselves "it can't be that bad to eat meat and dairy". This is especially sad because the message on health alone is so strong that it should blow everyone away.

I am subscribed to a few people who made their case to go to this summit. I would have happily seen any of them there, but this video shows why it really HAD to be you Great interview. Looking forward to more

Mate this was brilliant, you're owning these interviews so well. Well done for taking the time to put this together, you're providing a lot of inspiring content for everyone. I look forward to more :)

Saw him lecture on a vegan cruise this year and bought his book foods that fight pain. Amazing man doing amazing things in nutritional medicine. Thanks for posting the great video!

I'm plant based and I have no heart problems no high blood pressure no high cholesterol the only thing that's wrong with me is seasonal allergies other than that I'm very healthy because of being

Dr Neal Barnard FOR THE WIN

Wonderful job interviewing, Klaus! A++ Thanks for all you're doing for the movement

You are an excellent interviewer! You ask great questions and just let the person speak, without sharing your own personal stories. Thank you!

Dr. Barnard is just such an inspiring spokesperson for plant bases diets. Love it!

I fucking love Dr. Barnard.

super excited you got to talk with Neal Bernard!

That point on addiction really hit home!!! I am addicted to sugar, oil/margarine, salt & caffeine!! Eggs, milk & refined wheat make up the remainder of my diet!! Oh boy!!!

Besides his scientific accucary, his looks are pretty convincing. Man. He does not look 63. I would have estimated him over 43 or 44 years. ^^

dear God!! THANKYOU for letting him speak and answer and explain. well done. (so many bad interviewers who shut down their guest. )

You are making history. This interview along with Dr Gregger's are excellent.

I love how open and honest this man is! He‘s an icon!

Thank you for all the information you share, specially because it's accurate and updated. In the video you mention that in the UK, there's is an association called Food for life program, I'm a passionate vegan and physician from Peru currently studying to get my license as a physician in the U.S. I would really appreciate it if you could give me more information about the Food for life program I would like to contact them to do volunteer work or clinical rotations when I'm done with my license exams. Again thank you for your work, you are an inspiration for all your audience, keep doing this wonderful job!!

I wanna hug both of you after watching this 😁

I love Dr. Barnard's positivity, perserverance, and professionalism.

I'm so grateful to Dr. Barnard for his tenacity in ending animal use for medical students. Great interview, thank you!

barnard McDougal esilstein Campbell.. sorry so many more have slipped my mind... all helped me and my fiancé on our wfpb journey! We are so thankful! Ty for this awesome channel as well keep it up!

Great video, I really appreciate your work, Klaus. I love the positivity you bring to your channel. Dr Barnard is a real champion of veganism, and I am so grateful for everything he is doing.

I love and respect Dr. Barnard so much! He seems such a great person. Awesome interview, Klaus! :D

What an excellent interview. Good flow of questions, good follow ups, you never rushed to the next thing. Amazing job.

I've been very lucky, my bariatric surgeon is vegan and wants all of his patients to be vegan as well and will spend most of an appointment encouraging plant based eating.

and now that I've finished watching...what a great focking interview! well done! some excellent questions and Dr. Neal Barnard is so poised in his responses. just awesome! so great to see the optimism side when we see a lot of the other on a daily basis! Cheers!

Really great interview! Thank you for making a difference in the world! 😍

Im 27 now and I didnt eat meat till I was 13 or something if I remember correctly. I remember watching how my mom and brother ate grilled chicken every week so from being bored one day, I just took and tested a small piece. From then I ate chicken/meat every week. Now Im on plant based diet for more than a year - and I feel great, and Im not planning to go back.
