Haha good one! thank you
Gregor waited for the study and finally admitted Omega 3 is essential for brain health. There are no vegan sources. Then he talks about how vegans might be at a greater risk for stroke because of the lack of B12 or Creatine. Again more supplements needed. Following Science is great, but so is listening to your body. Again he overshoots in his video by saying look "I smoke and never got lung cancer". This is an oversimplification. How about look, I added sardines to my plant based diet and my thinking feels clearer and my lab results actually improved.
Unfortunately, I guess I'm just one of those people who it won't work for. I can't do nightshades or any kind of pasta or starches, or berries. It's a long list. I'll be an inflammatory mess. Glad I found this before I spent a lot of more time researching. Thank you.
It seems to me there is a difference between ‘plant-based’ and ‘vegan’ diets. There may be some people who can’t tolerate a vegan diet, but, I believe a ‘plant-based’ diet, perhaps with some adjustments, perhaps leading, ultimately to a full vegan diet can work for just about everyone.
I'm only a minute in but I would like to say race plays a part…the more pigmented you are the more Selenium you need in your body and it actually assists in melanin production (melanin is more than just a factor that determines skin color high energy areas in the body will have more melanin in those regions and be darker like our knees) the more fair skinned the more SULFUR one needs. Also (if you search "why i'm not vegan" on youtube) everyone is white except for literally 4 videos out of the first 50 that pop up. Just some food for thought.
That being said I have no problem with liver king and what he is doing i just don't recommend it to black people. Black people need greens and carbs. We like meat but we don't need it if that makes sense. I am vegan but not currently cuz of money. It takes a lot of knowledge and effort to make a vegan meal that still has that texture and umami you are looking for but it definitely can be done. I can make vegan nigerian dishes lol and they taste great but man is the cooking process long. I know I should be vegan (i literally feel and think better as a vegan) but sometimes addiction has me running back to the foods i eat when i am depressed anxious or sad, its all a process and knowing yourself is important. But I think all black ppl can be vegan with no issues you just gotta have someone show you the way 🙂 i can help…
People who tell me to go vegan think that my area of feral deer (Snowy Mountains, Australia) are not destroying the platypus ecosystem with rabbits or foxes. Changing my diet is saying KILL ALL THE PLATYPUS WE DON'T CARE. As humans, vegan or not, you should care. The whole why do you eat meat is irrelevant to the problems. Help and you may have a vegan, sit on tush and I won't, aimples
99.9% of the people that went vegan or whole food plant-based and fell off, is because they started it cold turkey. If you don't give your body/digestion time to adjust you are definitely going to have problems. I went cold turkey, one day I was an omnivore and the next I wasn't and I could have powered a small city with what was coming out of my body. While I never switched back to eating animal products I cut way back on the foods that were causing the problems and over an extended period of time I started adding them back in. Today I eat an entire three servings of beans a day along with some sort of whole grain like farro. I also eat lots of broccoli, Brussels and dark green leafy veggies. I almost never have gas or bloating an I feel wonderful, I am 56 and I feel like I did in my twenties. And yes, I had severe digestion problems before I went WFPBV to the point I thought I was dying and actually wished that I would. I also had coronary artery disease, was taking 7 different prescriptions for blood pressure, cholesterol, depression and the side effects they caused, drugs to treat drugs. Today, two years later and I am 100% drug free and my digestion is awesome.
Short and sweet, straight to the point! Thanks 🙏!
I think Vegan dont work for everyone because they buy the processed vegan crap when they should be buying the whole foods that you must cook at home not the package stuff
Was vegetarian and vegan for 10 years! First year..Great!
Then a cascade of problems and muscular deterioration.
Lost the ability to eat mangoes, Citrus,…more.
Headaches…Dizziness…Hair Loss
Supplementation and Very Careful dietary modifications only gave mild relief.
Ok… so if you are allergic what do you do?
I never had any trouble with meats and animals fats. But grains and veggies those must be limited or else I get all kind of bad effects.
Dr Greger says absolutely nothing here about people who have been eating a plant-based diet for years and getting worse! Some have tried different kinds of plant-based diets (different proportions of macros, removing foods high in allergenic elements, etc.) and still have problems. I think this issue is not addressed seriously enough by plant-based doctors and Dr Greger unfortunately spends most of this video high-octane waffling and fails to answer why some people feel worse on a plant-based diet, much as I usually like his presentations. Feeling worse on a supposedly healthy plant-based diet is often dismissed as people not having been on it long enough, or eating vegan junk food, or wanting an excuse to eat meat again, or adding in oils, or whatever, none of which is necessarily true. This issue needs to be taken a lot more seriously by plant-based doctors, not brushed aside as an inconvenient truth. Dr Klaper is the only person I have seen who addresses it to some degree.
In his book, "Reversing Heart Disease", Dean Ornish, MD, said that when you change over to a vegetarian diet, expect to go through a period of digestive problems. So I knew what was coming. And boy did it! Took several months for my digestive process to settle down. But once on the other side, it was smooth sailing. And the benefits have never stopped coming.
well explained.
I had a terrible time before going on the whole food plant based diet. I was on so many meds due to frequent diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and had to be close to a bathroom at all times. Many accidents. Then I went on WFPB diet. After 1 week I was cured. No more problems. I have gas but less than previously. No more diarrhea, no more nausea/vomiting. I feel so much better. I also take high strength probiotic twice daily.
There’s a brand new multi million pound science laboratory here in Norwich which looks into nothing but your microbiome. Must be something in it eh.
How about NOTHING works for EVERYONE.
Also, while there may be ethical issues with animal food, chicken breasts and egg whites are obviously healthier than french fries and Pepsi.
Me: Glutensensitive: baking my own bread glutenfree flour chiaseed, flaxseeds, pumpkinseeds, sunflowerseeds… Sensitive for the nightshadefamily: means tomatoes and paprika's. I can't live without eating a tomato, but I restrict it to small ones and very few. Ditched hazelnuts completely because of intolerance. How did I know? Just by asking to the doctor for a bloodtest/allergytest
Lol the edited on bearded picture followed by the exact same real picture
Whats your Instagram?
I'm nightshade and gluten
Ok so what do I do then…? I'm still feeling pretty bad every time I eat, been plant based for some 8 months now, even did the Medical Medium 28 day cleanse, for a moment there I thought things were gonna get really good, but it didn't end up happening. Any advice?
Dr Greger is my best rock band
You guys also forgot lectins, they are horrible as well(better cook and soak the crap out of most plant matter, sadly you're killing the nutrients along the lectins, await your zink deficiency with a proud vegan mind). Add in unhealthy vegetable oils(everything but olive oil and coconut oil basically) and a ton of sugar and carbs to feed inflammation in the body and you have the perfect storm.
