Yes, we are

Exactly!!

I have only scratched the surface here. If the existence of humans were compressed into a 24 hour day, we have only been eating meat for 14 minutes. The fact that we can eat meat doesn't mean that we should eat meat. We are no longer living a subsistence existence whereby we should eat anything we can get our hands on to survive to the next day and the main challenge is to live long enough to procreate. If you want robust longevity, meat should not be on the menu. Evolution by natural selection is blind to longevity and is only based on whether or not you live long enough to reproduce.

@@lkuriskomd The chimpanzee who we share our closest common ancestor with is also an omnivore. I do think that we are better off going heavy on plant material but we are also predators. We have always been predators. So have chimps.

Comparative anatomy and physiology strongly suggest that we are herbivores. I encourage you to watch our interview with Dr. Will Bulsiewicz. He discusses the critical role of fiber related to gut health and disease. You get ZERO fiber from meat. Thanks for watching.

If by that you mean they are skinny, how do you explain gorillas, elephants, rhinoceri and hippopotami?

We used to be too until we got educated on some of the newest, incontrovertible - nutritional research that explains why we are all so sick, fat and diseased. Thanks for watching.

Please read Genesis and of course I can only assume you are familiar with the Daniel Diet. And yes evolution at a macro level has so many holes in it. Our symbiosis with plants is beautiful and indisputable. I would encourage you to watch our interview with Dr. Will Bulsiewicz regarding the critical role of fiber - of which you get ZERO from meat. Thanks for watching.

Hello @maarj923 - we wish you well concerning your health issues. A WFPB lifestyle can truly work miracles. Let us know how we can help. We offer one-on-one coaching if needed. Check out our website @www.kuriskoandco.com to learn more.

Hello @ruthtirado - we apologize for the oversight in not editing political - ad hominem - statements out of the video. We want to remain apolitical. While we appreciate the insight that Dr. Fuhrman offers related to nutrition, we do not agree politically. Lee and I actually voted for Trump and would do so again over the current democratic candidate. Although I have to say I really am quite impressed by Robert Kennedy Jr. Please do visit us again!

Hello @tusharmore. Good point. Most rabid carnivores would likely fail a glucose tolerance test.

Eh, politics are for idiots. It’s a divide and conquer technique used by elites for a long time.

We agree

These nutrition doctors need to keep their politics to themselves. The late Dr McDougall said the same kinds of things and that was a turn off.

Our pleasure!

Sorry for late response. Breast calcification usually is benign. It requires the expert eyes of a radiologist to assess which calcifications could be cancer. The more common benign breast calcifications are not a health risk. The decision to pursue screening mammography is a personal one to be made in discussion with your doctor. I suggest that you view this video for more information. czcams.com/video/2w0U2Qb30m8/video.html As far as screening with thermography goes, don't bother. It has no scientific validity as a screening tool.

Hello @CapWalks1 - we discuss diabetes often and will continue to promote Mastering Diabetes and the work of Cyrus Khambatta, PhD and Robby Barboro MS. Lee often suggests to the die hard meat eaters (who believe this is the holy grail to keeping diabetes under control) - to take a glucose test after eating a banana or any carb really (of course they'll fail because they haven't addressed the underlying insulin sensitivity). We are excited to be interviewing Cyrus for our Cancer Documentary and are kicking the tires on a documentary focused on obesity and the diabetic epidemic. Thank you for being precise and for watching.

False. Humans can get all the essential amino acids from plants and we can make the non-essential amino acids from the essential. Only plants create amino acids de novo by taking nitrogen for the air and synthesizing them. Pretty cool.

Thanks for watching!

Start with Mastering Diabetes by Cyrus Khambatta PhD and Robby Barbaro MPH and/or visit www.masteringdiabetes.org. You can also visit Neal Barnard, MD - PCRM.org. - ask any reputable plant-based physician and they all have stories of reversing diabetes - Dr. Furhman, Dr. McDougall etc. So the worst advice you've actually ever heard is that carbs cause diabetes. That is the LIE. Intracellular fat (myocellular fat to be more exact) is what causes insulin resistance. Thanks for watching.

Yes evil to reverse diabetes🤨

​@@kuriskoandcoa proper human diet (void of plants) has reversed diabetes in many already

@@asuranrocks Not really. Cutting out plants provides no carbohydrate substrate for blood sugar therefore blood sugar control may improve dramatically in the short term but insulin persists or even worsens. Challenge such a person with carbs and blood sugar will go sky high at least initially until insulin sensitivity is re-established which can occur quite quickly. For me, it only took 3 days to go from pre diabetic to perfectly normal eating a ton of carbs. Won't happen quite that fast for everyone.

@@lkuriskomd you claim to be educated on this subject yet fail to address that everyone’s chemistry is different and what may affect you one way will not affect me the same.

Just yesterday I had a lengthy discussion with a crop duster pilot. Pre-diabetic and following the western medicine model of "no fruit" - I made him lunch and share with him how he could eat if he followed the Mastering Diabetes program. He was incredulous and excited. Why? The current diet he has been told to follow isn't working and he misses, fruit, potatoes, pasta and so much more. So to counter your statement - enjoy - and I hope you don't become diabetic or develop heart disease and die prematurely or suffer the loss of a limb.

Unless you have some sort of allergy to plants - your statement borders on ridiculous.

It's an accumulation of fat from excess fat in the diet. I'm not sure it's worth responding because the comment is filled with tremendous naiveté. Fatty liver can show up in non-diabetics. Lastly, the "BS website" is years of medical training in general medicine, radiology and neuroradiology.

It was an editing oversight and my apologies. We prefer to stay apolitical. Thanks for watching!

Should definitely not bring politics into these discussions

​@@kuriskoandcoNo, you should not have to apologize for your guest's folly.

Although Joyce and I definitely have our own political views, for the purpose of this channel we prefer to remain apolitical and should have edited that out. We are keen on educating and helping people of any political affiliation.

@lkuriskomd I think that's a good practice. I highly respect Dr Fuhrman's nutritional advice but just can't handle his political stuff.

This guy is a real piece of work. He will love the next four years when we retake the White House from these bafoons.

@annemccarron2281 I'm not even defending Trump. It's just amazing to see how childish a doctor can be when he should be talking about medicine instead of his political nonsense. He goes way beyond Trump. He lets us know how he feels on topics that are well disputed and easily split the country down the middle. I absolutely don't care what the doctor thinks about these things. His opinion, as far as I'm concerned, is ill-informed and I just don't care. He is brilliant when it comes to food. That's what I listen to him for.

WTF...did he just bash Trump!? I have no more respect for you. Keep politics out.

Glad you enjoyed it!

That's the way to go. By having good food prepared, you aren't stuck eating junk when you're at work.

We encourage you to reach out to Dr. Goldner directly. We can say that a plant-based diet does contribute to immune health. Thanks for watching.

We will reach out to Dr. Conway:)

Please see my husband’s response above regarding his numbers. I’m speaking for him here but I do think in the situation he was in the more “drastic” approach of a low fat WVPB was called for. There’s no question that losing weight and getting to your ideal body weight will help numbers but as far as cutting visceral fat I think it depends on the diet as a whole along with other factors like increasing muscle mass.

All of the legitimate research supports a plant focused diet long-term over meat centric diets. It's unfortunate that there is so much confusion regarding nutrition. You can't reverse heart disease on a strict carnivore diet. Yes - Wonder White Bread is not a good choice either. Healthy carbs are the key to a healthy gut biome and the answer to preventing and reversing diabetes. Thanks for watching though and happy running!!

I will reach out to Dr. Conway. In the interim the best data to quell your concerns lies with Dr. Esselstyn. He took patients with near blockage and reversed their disease successfully.

Please see my husband’s response above.

Thanks for the response !

Thanks Candy for watching!
