The Benefits of A Whole Food Plant-Based Diet | Dr. Alan Goldhamer

Would oil-free, salt-free pop corn be allow on this diet?

Not if you have Crohns

Im so confused with all the conflicting info out there about not doimg WFPB due to high oxalates

This guy is so well spoken. He speaks from experience of thousands of patients, not just from theory.

2013 study identified critical threshold values according to age, with consequent significant reduction in life expectancy if exceeded. These are: WHtR greater than 0.5 for people under 40 years of age, 0.5 to 0.6 for people aged 40–50, and greater than 0.6 for people over 50 years of age.

I love eating steaks and chicken etc. Here's the problem before the industrial revolution everything was organic. Now the majority of our soil is tainted through heavy pesticides. So now animals eat tainted plants and other animals because on Earth everyone and everything is living in a chemical soup. Now the bacteria and parasites found in meat are causing our bodies to load up and thrive on free radicals that ultimately keep us sick, fat & miserable.

I'm somewhat new to wfpb eating, but it's been incremental. I just kept liking the food better and meat les and less. My once raging sweet tooth just slowly went away almost without noticing. The real food is wonderful once your palate starts to adjust. The other stuff loses its appeal. This surprised me.

Amen

I've been really healthy since eating plant based (most of the time) I fight off colds in 24-48 hours and I never got symptoms of COVID. I am vaxxed and boosted as well. I just think we know what the issue is and ignore it

Plant food diet left me weak and tired a majority of the time. Eating meat and fish and protein, eliminating carbs and sugar, I have never felt better and have zero cravings. I have sustained energy and eat much less. Just reporting the facts, judge me if you like. I have done both long term..

Stop talking about what specific natural food people can and should not eat and talk about the process and system the food has grown in. Meat grown in ecological focused environments could be more nutrient dense and better for ecosystem than fruits and veggies grown industrially. Were the veggies grown with all sorts of plastics and synthetic chemicals and cides? It’s about the system they are grown in from mineral to soil foodweb and up. The trophic systems stack on top of each other to make wonderful nutrient dense food that benefits all layers of the ecosystem.

NOW WHERE THE HECK AM I GOING TO FIND…..ANY NON GMO’S FOODS ESPECIALLY VEGGIES 🥕 & FRUITS 🍉 in AMERICA????
He skips over the most important piece of information

I'm a huge meat eater as to why i developed  psoriatic arthritis. My hands, knees and feet are affected with arthritic pain. So I've been bedridden  for 3 months because my feet and knees were extremely painful. But when i started to ditched meat, sugar and dairy i started to walk again but limping. The pain reduced for like 50% and my psoriasis is completely dry now. And also, my dad died from heart attack due to the said diet as well

Talking about ‘diet’ can lead to eating disorders because it leads to ‘diet culture.’ If ppl feel deprived, it can go into excess at a later point.

I respect vegans. They make a real effort to eat healthy. I can not eat a plant based diet, I need meat, especially red meat. And fat.

Ive tried Carnivore, keto, vegan, and pretty much everything. I feel the best on a vegan diet but love meat so much

Olive oil and salt is bad now, Jesus! please stop.
