After watching this film I immediately changed to a completely VEGAN diet. I am a type 2 diabetic and have been for years. By switching to this diet, and ditching all sodas, processed sugars, and terrible crap I have never felt better. I've went from 305lbs on July 1st to 273lbs on August 11th. And I am still losing. I thank this film so much for opening my eyes and putting me on the right track.
Maybe you should have ditched most of the stuff even before watching this film Jamie(common sense and all)...just saying :-)
Jamie Wyatt can you see that it isn't just the vegan diet that helps you get healthy. What actually helped you get better was getting rid of all the processed crap and sugar and soda and things like that. You could have also gotten healthy doing a low-carb high-fat diet. Of course by high-fat we don't mean McDonald's cheeseburgers. You need healthy grass-fed animal fat and free range chicken eggs and things like that. You could even use vegetarian fats like avocados and coconuts. But you've got to stay away from those processed Killers like vegetable oil and trans fat and hydrogenated oils. So it's not the vegan diet that helped you it's the ditching all of the garbage that you are putting in your body.
Congrats that's awesome! Ditching the processed stuff is huge and eating whole food planted based is the absolute best! Wishing you the best!
Louisa Capell agreed, if you're diabetic cutting out sodas and processed sugars should be the main focus
It's more the fact that this film and it's message really put things into perspective for me. I have done these things before and never had the results I have had with the vegan diet change. Even while I was not drinking sodas and consuming sugars I still had issues with things like blood glucose and neuropathy in my legs. The vegan plant based diet has helped eliminate that. It's not that I should've done some of these things before... but more that adding the plant based diet has helped substantially.
You can lead a person to knowledge but you cannot make them think.
and you can indoctrinate people who cannot think.
the man said type one diabetes is an autoimmune response to dairy... thats the biological equivalent of saying the earth is flat
and you can't indoctrinate people who think without a confirmation bias with propaganda
OJ is GUILTY. COSBY is GUILTY. TYSON GUILTY. Why are most black men in jail? Black Lives Matter, right? See jails.
xmoniker@hotmail.com nice comment! LOL. :)
i watched What the Health. I was a meat eater. I always have had aches and pains, part of being almost 60. SO i decided to go vegan for two weeks. After 4 days my aches and pains went away.. my energy level increased. You may say i'm full of it, but i'm never going back! Vegan for life.
Dave Greene Its all in your head
still vegan?? I'm months into it and feel great
THATS AWESOME Dave!! welcome to Veganism :) I am 45 and look and feel 25 I Love being Vegan best thing I ever did :) Im happy for you
Keep going Dave, I've been a Vegan for 18 months, after going home for 2 weeks (NZ) We love meat, but as soon as I got back to Australia, that was it, now I'm never going back.
Post hoc ergo propter hoc
i am 65yrs old with health problems,i watched what the health 3weeks ago, i have since immersed myself in research , this has resulted in my becoming a vegan ,
Good job!
Pincarto, I am 74 years old and had 2 stents put in and read prevent and reverse heart disease and that was 10 years ago. You made the right decision ! One of the benefits of eating like this is you wont get the colds and illnesses that people always seem to get. You will get thin and lean and feel and sleep really well.
I wish you well. Cheers
I'd love to hear your progress, PD. xo
michelle dinovo thanks for your reply, after 16or so weeks i have gone through a lot of changes, a heart problem i had had for over 10yrs disappeared the first week, a re-flux problem of more than 8yrs had gone by the second week, a 5yr old ear infection also disappeared ,i had limped on my right knee from a child, due to juvenile arthritis,that has also gone, during my late 40s my right hand was becoming weak, the pain was slowly progressing with the arthritis,i became unable to take off bottle tops, and jar tops, during my second month as a vegan that all changed , i now have strength back, and can once again take off jar and bottle tops painlessly , morning headaches stopped in the first month, i now sleep through the night,first time for 11yrs, which is an indication that my prostate is in recovery as i would get up 3 times a night to wee, i still feel pain in those areas of long deep arthritis,the spine,elbows,if i turn my head to far, but arthritis is not attacking me every day, i am now medication free a first since i was 15yrs old, from 9pills a day to zero, for the first time in a long time i feel well ,inside, not to have pain every day is for me a new experience,one that i still think may be a dream, but a pinch every now and then assures me i am not asleep, thanks for your interest,
Great job! My dad died last year at age 57, his dad passed at 51 from lifestyle diseases. It's great news that you are making changes.
Dr. Barnard does not tire in answering the same questions in all the interviews. His patience is palpable. What a human being.
Capra Physics LOVE him! He looks like he’s in his 40s, but he is 66 years old! 😮
64? That's pretty amazing
jaylynn444
HOLY SHIT!!!
Dude is a saint, watched this with my mother today and we both made the switch to vegan
He must be plant based!👍
Are any of you people aware that Dr. Neal Barnard is 64 years old.
He looks 45, due to the vegan plant based diet.
I recently changed to a vegan diet and could not believe how much younger I'm looking, it really works folks.
Your skin will start to glow and wrinkles start to disappear.
Me too. I'm 56 and no one believes me when I tell 'em how old I am. No one. They make me take out my Drivers License
I had to google just to make sure you weren’t lying. That is freaking crazy!!
This nigga looks 35 fuck that lol
@@josephewing6371 True. He looks younger.
@@josephewing6371 It's subjective. Isn't it ?
Doctors make money by making their patients sick but he tries to heal patients with dietary habits and never get them sick again You're a true doctor. This is what every doctor should do.
A doc is a doc, he has zero credibility at nutrition, and he has been misinforming people all the time, obviously including you. Neal Bernard doesn’t even understand what nutrition is. All he did was blame everything on meats and dairy, and people have been eating meats since the dawn of humanity.
“You should definitely drink milk... if you’re a calf that can’t eat on your own”. Love this man
@The Pascha Bunny The problem is that we aren’t calfs, baby goats, or bees. No milk or honey needed!
@The Pascha Bunny Why though? It’s unnecessary animal abuse and bad for you
@The Pascha Bunny With what
@The Pascha Bunny I don’t need a doctor to tell me that exploiting and killing animals for their flesh and what comes out of their bodies is wrong. It’s already obvious to me.
@@scrungo7610 I can appreciate your viewpoint, though I think bees/honey is a good bit different conceptually. Whereas mammals produce milk exclusively for their young, bees produce more honey than they need as emergency stores. Harvesting honey, at least when done correctly, only takes the excess that is not needed by the hive (and is also good hive maintenance, otherwise they hive will swarm and end up getting somewhere they are unwanted and get sprayed by an exterminator)
You know when you are winning the argument, when the other side gets emotional and raises their voice.
Exactly, like the Director of the Diabetes Research Foundation did while talking to Kip in "What The Health" 😂😂😂
Not always. Some times the innocent do cry out for justice.
@@ericwalker6546 but you know when they are and when they aren’t
@@miledytrujillo2298 are you winning or do they have more conviction of what they believe than you do?
@@ericwalker6546 why does emotion have to pollute critical thinking?
Dr Neal Barnard is 64 yrs old. He looks incredible for his age, a testament to a healthy vegan diet.
Wow!I didn’t know that!
He’s 64?!
@Angus He was one of the most popular models in Singapore in the 80s and 90s... it's called genetics! (and probably some exogenous hormones).
@baby bean dude. Hes asian. Doesnt count.
Leif D - I just want to find out about Professor Brian Cox's diet because he is about 50 and literally looks in his twenties!
I have been following Dr. Barnard and Dr. Eselstyn. I went to enroll as a patient with Dr. Eselstyn in Cleveland. I can say this without any reservations. I dropped my cholesterol 40 points, my triglycerides 38 points, my blood pressure is now completely normal. Oh no!! no meat, chicken or fish, Im going to be protein deficient right? WRONG! my protein count went UP by 2 points! I lost 24 pounds.......THIS WAS ALL WITHIN 8 WEEKS!!!!!!! yes, this works!!! without a doubt.
Common Sense Camper Can I pls know what are you eating in a day? I really dont know what veggies to buy and I wanna change myself and mentality too 😭😢😔
I am following Dr Essystyn's diet plan and I concur the exact same thing. Cholesterol etc has plummeted and Cardiologist keeps cutting my statin dose in half. I'm now on quarter dose and I suspect they'll have to stop or figure something out at the next blood test. All this in 2 months !!
Yey!
@@mrsandman2694 just buy green leafy vegetables, peppers, tomatoes, and fruits, legumes and healthy whole foods. CZcams is bursting with recipes.
I just found this video and went back plant based now going on two months and lost 30 lbs and I just literally watch this video. Facts 💯💯
I'm a dialysis patient i went vegan and in 6 months had 4 blood pressure pills removed from my medications soon i will take up walking and jogging again and hope to drop my blood pressure even more. i get blood work done weekly and i have no protein problems and have had better blood work then ever before just by going vegan. i want to say thank you for your valuable information. VEGAN FOR LIFE!!!!!!!!
It's been a while, has WFPB helped kidney function? How are you feeling today?
Well done .
I decided to start on a vegan diet about 6 months ago. I slimmed way down and felt a lot better within the first month. I don't try to persuade anyone nor talk much about it. But I'm convinced it's greatly improved the quality of my life. The fact that I don't have to kill other animals to feel this good is nice benefit as well. I think Dr Bernard is a very credible source on nutrition.
This dude is 64 years old. If he doesn't know about health, who Tf does?! Look at him!
Woah...hes how old?!
Genetics play a large role in outer appearances.. look at Dr Michael Greger, not exactly the photogenic ideal projection for vegan eating, but he probably eats as scientifically healthy a diet as anyone alive. I’m inclined to suggest that not suffering from hair loss made you think ‘look at him!’
@@PhilWhelanNow ~ The _laaadies_ go crazy for Mike ! They say he's sexy. 👌😜
He’s fine asf 😏
Whoa, I thought he was in his late 40s. He really knows what he's talking about!
I love this doctor my husband went vegan and his doctor had to reduce his insulin in half!
Well done to your husband! I have always been overweight and since becoming vegan I am losing weight steadily and not counting calories. It's amazing!
Did you go with him.
ya the leading theory is because your husband when he went vegan probably also cut is calorie intake significantly.. when controlled for calories which Dr. Bernards study DID NOT vegan diets were no better than any other diets out there.. caloric intake is the key
VeganMommyof2 Read Dr. Barnard's "Program For Reversing Diabetes." Awesum recipes too😍😄
Yey!
Why people give so much authority to another persons opinion, doctors or not? Do your own research. I was told by "The best doctor in the hospital" that I had a chronic disease, that I was going to live with 13 pills a day forever and that I should avoid vegetables. Yeah right, that didn't make sense to me. So I am vegetarian/vegan for 6 years already with not a single synthom, not a single pill, it was the best decision ever. Give it a try, not only for your health but for animals.
Joana Carvalho amen. I want to spread this message to save people
100% agree!
100% agree!
That is great!!!
Or maybe you just had mediocre doctors..
This documentary and my 12 year old vegan sons influence pushed his aunt and her husband to stop eating meat and dairy! So happy!
Plant-based news promotes propaganda that fish is unhealthy and actively prompts vegan junk food from subway and KFC and McDonald's so what is it is vegan about your health or the animals if it is about health then why do you make videos when a non-vegan restaurant make vegan junk food I but go all on abord when talking about unprocessed food like fish I wonder

The title should be why vegan doctors like to hate anything that's non-Vegan I can make a whole video about why brown rice is unhealthy because the high level of arsenic cause cancer so therefore brown rice is unhealthy what about the DHA IN Fish is better than ALA in plants and much more bioavailable I think I would rather listen to what longest living healthy Japanese are eating whole food unprocessed diets
just because most vegans are less likely to smoke and drink alcohol and eat less processed food doesn't mean that vegan diets are Heather at all the fact that pesco-vegetarians had the lowest hazard ratio for all-cause mortality in the Adventist Health Study 2 despite pollution? I can see the ecological and other ethical problems with eating seafood, but doesn't epidemiology contradict the claim that a vegan diet is healthier than a pescovegetarian diet? I don't think I know better, it's just that I see some contradiction here.
This study on vegans' use of saying vegan being Heather than meat-eater has clearly shown the opposite true with the fish-eater this doesn't mean vegan diets are unhealthy but not optimal as whole food plants based with some fish since this diet provides all the nutrients from plants and B12 DHA and more biologically available vitamins A and D, therefore, non-vegan diets can be slightly Heather than WFPBD
Not all vegans eat this diet vegans do eat refined carbs also added vegetable oils are and mock meats are not correct to say that vegans are automatically Heather because their diet is vegan
Any idea, why pesco-vegetarians had the lowest hazard ratio for all-cause mortality in the Adventist Health Study 2 despite pollution? I can see the ecological and other ethical problems with eating seafood, but doesn't epidemiology contradict the claim that a vegan diet is healthier than a pescovegetarian diet?

The level of mercury in fresh Atlantic salmon is 220 parts per billion mercury so which means
That a 3oz serving is equal to 85 grams of Salmon
220/1000000000 equal
0.00000022 grams of mercury x1000 to milligrams then it's 0.00022 milligrams x1000 to micrograms then it's 0.22 microgram x85 for 3oz serving 18.7 micrograms of mercury
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that 0.1 mcg per kg) of body weight per day is the maximum safe dose of mercury.
So 18.7 mcg from fish
I am weighing about 73kg that's about 161 lb
So
Roundabout 0.10mcg per lb
so my exposure Is within the safe non-risk limit if I eat 85 grams every day which is a lot I eat about 85 grams of salmon 3 times a week so my total consumption a week is about 255grams that's equal to 9oz a week
Now we have to x3 the exposure of mercury that's come at
18.7/161 = 0.116149068322981 x3 = 0.348447204968943
Roundabout 0.35
I have to 7x the safe expound limit of 0.1 x7 = 0.7 mcg per pound per week is safe to limit
I only would get 0.35 which is well within the safe limit so at this level heavy metals like mercury are completely harmless to get a negative effect you need to be exposed serval times the upper safe limit so you are wrong about
fish contains omega 3 and DHA that helps the brain development and lower heart disease anyways if you are still concerned about this explore it safe to eat a fish a couple of times a week the benefits of fish completely outweigh the negative so stop spending misinformation
If you still are stubborn about not eating heavy metal you do know that you're exposed to heavy materials at a far higher amount from second-hand smoke brown rice has arsenic that's doesn't mean that brown rice is unhealthy like fish the benefits outweighs the drawbacks of combining fish with prominently plant-based is optimal for health 👍
nice logic very mon biased video 😂😂
GFY
I'm a HCLF vegan and what I've been trying to figure out is WHY WHY WHY are meat eaters so utterly offended & in denial about THIS FILM and the available evidence based science? What can be gained...other than better health, less cruelty to animals & less destruction to the environment? What is it that is such a threat to them?? Talking to meat eating friends and family members is like arguing with a bunch of drunks.
Lisa L They are blood drunk, cheese drunk, egg, fat, and oil drunk.
Lisa L There is good evidence for advantages of a vegan diet for health (and, of course, there are strong ethical and ecological arguments). But as far as I know, there is no good evidence that HCLF vegan diets are better than other vegan diets (actually, it seems likely that HCLF has significant disadvantages).
People feel like it is part of their culture, which it is and has been until now. It is no longer a necessity to make it though the winters or if you were unsuccessful on a scavaging/farming yield. We went plant based for our families future being the most sustainable diet. We wish we would have done it in our teens with our renewed vitality and appreciation of healthy food! Most just don't want to take that step like others said our brains are wired to love those foods for survival so it's hard to give up the functioning Crack as someone else pointed out. I feel going plant based really helped us with moderation in most other aspects of our life.
yea, it is so true!! they get so defensive, & upset, & want to start confrontational argument. I do not get it either; other than people want to hear good news about their bad habits!
Nice. High carb from fruit is the way to go
Dr Bernard is a vegan supporter whose arguments are rooted in science. Very knowledgeable, informed, erudite, scholarly and knowledgeable on his subject. His humor and way of debunking nonsense in very respectful ways are a joy to listen to. I wish I had his way of phrasing ideas and concepts. He is the epitome of good behavior and (dare I mention the word?) manners.
Love watching this man being interviewed. His grasp of his subject is huge and if he doesn’t know something or hasn’t read (rarely happens) something he says so. Wish more interviewees (regardless of subject matter) would follow his lead on being interviewed. He presents his answers and comments in a calm, reasoned manner, usually backed up by science.
And finally, if his age, as some commentators suggest is 65 ... then he is a tremendous advertisement for the way of life he advocates.
Good health and long, healthy and happy life to all.
🌲🌝☘️
Dr. Neal Barnard for president
love Dr Barnard such kind eyes he has
It is refreshing to see a Doctor in the business of curing not just treating alone.
I’ve met many people who were inspired to eat plant-based / vegan after watching What the Health!
My husband watched it and made me watch it and my family is now vegan and my 8 year old even says he likes it!

Dr. Barnard is so kind and clear in his explanations.
I love Dr. Greger's suggestion that to avoid bias or perceived bias, research should be crowd-funded. I'd throw money at that.
i know!!
Dr Greger? You mean the Dr Greger who claims to be non profit while working for the HSI and receives funding from PETA?
Aqualung1956 so people shouldn’t make a living at all? nutritionfacts.org is not for profit and the sales from his book went to charity... but everyone needs to make a living somehow!!!
Chani Ridley Even if he has to lie about it? How can you trust what he says?
Dusty Stahn he’s one of the few I trust!
Great interview! Dr. Barnard is the man. But I have to disagree with him when he says, 'Everyone knows you don't have to eat meat to be healthy'. I meet people all the time who can't wrap their head around the concept of veganism. Everyone SHOULD know that though. Keep up the good work everyone!
thanks man..likewise!
im only just finding out that you dont need meat, and everyone thinks there are things in it that you cant get in plants. I only just found out there is protein in all plants, not just beans. And im sure everyone (that isnt vegan) doesnt know that too. We need better education about food everywhere
Would you agree that there are probably 7 people in the US that don’t know smoking is bad, yet folks do it anyway? They know.
TheBerkeleyBeauty if you are trying to say Americans know you don't need to eat meat to be healthy, you are mistaken, there are a lot of uneducated people in america.
Simnett Nutrition you're right. So much more education needed.
I watched "What The Health" and decided to give veganism a try. I ended up getting too healthy!! I had high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes for years. I also have gastrointestinal sarcoidosis. One month of going vegan and it all went away! I went vegan but i didn't stop taking my meds. I got sick because all my vitals were too low. So i went from 8 different meds a day to ZERO. And I was one of those people who couldn't live without meat! Im vegan and im never going back!!
I like Dr. Neal Barnard 👍🏼
I love his positive vibes, he is super optimistic all the time, and that cheers me up
Eating my black beans while watching this.
Me too.
There is vegan ranch dressing? I kinda want to make mock buffalo tenders now.
Brad I'm literally eating a black bean veggie burger right now fam
i'm adding some rice, paprika, cumin, pink salt n pepper.
Black bean and zucchini fritters on a bed of Romain and vegan mozzarella with a sprinkle of hemp seeds. Never thought going plant base would make me apriciate food so much more.
I know there aren’t any meat eaters here but notice how he generally wants to educate people about what he believes...it comes down to what you actually believe and what science backs up, I trust this man
I went from 349 on 2/28/2019 to 279 on 8/8/2019 on a Whole food Plant Based Diet. My blood pressure went fro 176/95 to 117/75. I passed out and hit my jaw on a dresser because my blood pressure was too low.
My Wife lost 90 pounds, was taken off of blood pressure medication and stabilized her thyroid in the same time period. In 7 months we lost a combined 160lbs on a Whole Foods Plant Based diet.
Oh yeah, we ate Vegan Pizza, Nachos, cookies, pies, cakes, French Fries, Burgers, doughnuts and sausage. We did not starve ourselves
Maybe eating more vegan whole foods rather than vegan processed foods would help. Just a suggestion.
@@natashahilton6566 I rarely eat them. The point is I eat them if I want to and I make them from scratch. I lost over 100lbs and my health is fine. I don't need the suggestion
@@natashahilton6566 there’s nothing wrong with having vegan processed foods 🤨
This is a really good channel. I'm learning more from actual vegetarians and vegans than I am from "debunkers". Arguing using bullshit studies that are paid for by corporations does not convince me that plant based eating is unhealthy. Dr Barnard and Dr Milton Mills are some of my favorite experts on this subject.
I would say be wary of "ready made" vegan food. Made by big companies for profit, cheap ingredients and often unhealthy like saturated palm oil. Don't assume all vegan products are healthy. Check the ingredients. Best solution make your own recipes from raw ingredients.
"Cowspiracy" and "What the Health" by Kip Anderson changed my life. Thanks to Kip and all the doctors, environmentalists and other folks for educating us.
I switched to a plant based diet 5 weeks ago. I watched this film and was disgusted by what Americans eat, what I ate, and how out of shape we are as a nation. I then researched other publications to verify information and decided to change my diet. I needed to lose 20 lbs and felt awful. My doctor told me to eat MORE meat..so I did, and it did not help me..that was 7 months ago. I stayed the same weight and felt tired, exhausted. I was eating dairy and meat every day, twice even.
We now feel like we can maintain a plant based diet for the rest of our lives. We've found great recipes, don't miss meat or dairy at all. I've lost 5 lbs already, within a month. Feel great and a strange thing I noticed..I feel less angry and agitated during the day. We still run 2 miles 5 days a week and I have less inflammation.
@Zach Martinez How's it going?
That's great! How's everything now?
I did the same! Researched all the studies and watched all the other documentaries love forks over knives and game changers. Im supposed to eat more red meat for me anemia but i feel so much better after i went vegan. I also lowered my cholesterol which my doctor said was because i ate too much fried food even though i didnt eat it a lot.

This study on vegans' use of saying vegan being Heather than meat-eater has clearly shown the opposite true with the fish-eater this doesn't mean vegan diets are unhealthy but not optimal as whole food plants based with some fish since this diet provides all the nutrients from plants and B12 DHA and more biologically available vitamins A and D, therefore, non-vegan diets can be slightly Heather than WFPBD
Not all vegans eat this diet vegans do eat refined carbs also added vegetable oils are and mock meats are not correct to say that vegans are automatically Heather because their diet is vegan
Any idea, why pesco-vegetarians had the lowest hazard ratio for all-cause mortality in the Adventist Health Study 2 despite pollution? I can see the ecological and other ethical problems with eating seafood, but doesn't epidemiology contradict the claim that a vegan diet is healthier than a pescovegetarian diet? I don't think I know better, it's just that I see some contradiction here. Thanks for your reply.
The level of mercury in fresh Atlantic salmon is 220 parts per billion mercury so which means
That a 3oz serving is equal to 85 grams of Salmon
220/1000000000 equal
0.00000022 grams of mercury x1000 to milligrams then it's 0.00022 milligrams x1000 to micrograms then it's 0.22 microgram x85 for 3oz serving 18.7 micrograms of mercury
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that 0.1 mcg per kg) of body weight per day is the maximum safe dose of mercury.
So 18.7 mcg from fish
I am weighing about 73kg that's about 161 lb
So
Roundabout 0.10mcg per lb
so my exposure Is within the safe non-risk limit if I eat 85 grams every day which is a lot I eat about 85 grams of salmon 3 times a week so my total consumption a week is about 255grams that's equal to 9oz a week
Now we have to x3 the exposure of mercury that's come at
18.7/161 = 0.116149068322981 x3 = 0.348447204968943
Roundabout 0.35
I have to 7x the safe expound limit of 0.1 x7 = 0.7 mcg per pound per week is safe to limit
I only would get 0.35 which is well within the safe limit so at this level heavy metals like mercury are completely harmless to get a negative effect you need to be exposed serval times the upper safe limit so you are wrong about
fish contains omega 3 and DHA that helps the brain development and lower heart disease anyways if you are still concerned about this explore it safe to eat a fish a couple of times a week the benefits of fish completely outweigh the negative so stop spending misinformation
If you still are stubborn about not eating heavy metal you do know that you're exposed to heavy materials at a far higher amount from second-hand smoke brown rice has arsenic that's doesn't mean that brown rice is unhealthy like fish the benefits outweighs the drawbacks of combining fish with prominently plant-based is optimal for health 👍
nice logic very mon biased video 😂😂
@@eironhendrixForks over knives is great. If you want to really be convinced to go vegan, Earthlings or the more recent Dominion will show.. what happens in the animals agriculture industry. I don't suggest watching it while eating, even if it is vegan food.
I'm afraid Dr Barnards hilarious "More fiber in their diet" remark blew right over this guys head! I just love Dr. Barnard's sense of humor!😂😂😂
yeah, that didn't get the recognition it deserved, lol
This film brought my family to a Whole Food Plant Based diet, and we feel great!
"I don't want to have a legacy because as a vegan I'm going to live forever"
He deserves THUG LIFE shades for that line, what a baws 😎
Vegan over 13 years💪🏾🙏🏾❤️
How are your teeth?
@@galahadthreepwood Thanks for asking. Vegan over 40 years. My dentist just has to remove plaque once a year or so.
I love this man's compassion and the way he shares his truth. Great "food" for thought to help me in my current journey to becoming vegan.
this guy himself is evidence enough that vegan diat is very good
Why? He looks unhealthy, like he has aids or is a drug addict
His genetics has nothing to do with it, it’s all diet. And we are taking his word for it that he is the age he says he is?
@@Huppyhuppyhuppy lol unhealthy how? You either havent seen an old person or a drug addictXD
@@beyzaercan3077 I am a vegan, I follow some vegans that do look healthy like Vegan Physique, this guy looks too fragile though, skin and bone
@@Huppyhuppyhuppy he's just a slender guy, doesn't look at all unhealthy in my opinion. You don't have to have bulging muscles to be healthy, in fact those type of people generally have a lower lifespan.
When you under estimate your opponent, chances are you lose. Keep fighting the good fight Dr Barnard!
I’m 68 and vegetarian/ vegan for 46 years. I’m the only person in my immediate family to be a healthy weight, 5’ 6” 140 and not burdened with hypertension, diabetes, arthritis, or cancer. The MD I used to work for gifted the office with an annual lab work and physical exam. Every year he would say that he wished he had my labs. Dr. B is such an inspiration. His diet looks good on him and his mind is quick.
True, and scientifically correct. Vegan diet is also kind to animals, and promotes high ethical and moral standards in the treatment of animals and each other.
The vegan diet has deferred animal deaths from the desructive effect of monocrop agriculture.
Two thumbs up Kitten
Let's all spread the message! Let's all start a youtube channel and spread the message! I'm doing it already ^^
The " ^^ " is such a German thing haha
Go out into the real world too and actually have conversations or hold events or start businesses. Many will not see it otherwise..
Lichtblick same 🙌🏻🌱 #plantpower
The older i get, the more often people ask me what do i do... the message just come naturally
Thank you Dr. Barnard💚. Your book, Dr. Niel Barnard's program for reversing diabetes, helped me reverse my second year diagnosis of pre diabetes. I have kept with the program and after 3 years of plant based healthful eating, I feel better than ever and don't need to worry about such a detrimental disease!! I recommend your book to everyone I know going through the same struggle I did! Plant based news, you guys are ROCK, keep up the good work of spreading and shedding light on what is really happening surrounding a plant based diet! Blessings to all 😊
Thank you Dr Barnard, you're a hero! Another advantage of a WFPB vegan diet is that I suffered from chronic runny nose for decades, couldn't go for a minute without reaching for a tissue, such an uncomfortable and antisocial habit, well, this condition disappeared as soon as I adopted this diet. My doctor was giving me inhalers, etc. they never worked and I was resigned to it. I can't believe how much better I feel, it's really like being reborn. Thank you also to Plant Based News for introducing me to Dr Barnard & Dr Klaper, I'm so lucky PBN somehow popped up in my CZcams recommendations and I'll never go back to eating animals.
My husband and I watched ‘What the Health’ in September last year. Immediately after watching the film we raided our kitchen and threw away/gave away all meats, fish and any other foods containing animal products. We have lost a ton of weight and have never felt better. Our 2 year old son is also following a plant based diet and the transition was not difficult at all. Thank you to the creator of the film and all of the Doctors advocating for the plant based diet. Your contributions are very much appreciated! Best decision we ever made!
That's amazing. That's absolutely fantastic. If you want food inspiration, I suggest Rainbow Plant Life, Gaz Oakley, Pick Up Limes to name but a few.
I slowly started talking about my vegan diet in more and more videos and literally lost half of my subscribers. =/ Reading comments on videos like this give me hope when carnists give me nothing but shit all day
Losing subs doesn't take away who you are. =)
Of course not. But I was hoping they'd stick around so I could shed light on this important issue. Carnists won't even listen. I just don't understand why. I used to eat animal products too. Most of us did. I guess some people have the blinders on tighter than others
Your people will find you! Integrity is 100x more fulfilling than subbies 💗
Those are just the thick-headed people, lol (the far end of the spectrum?). I think how each person grew up and developed plays an important factor in their attention span to listen. And heavy weighing factors can be long traditions, parenting, marketing, schooling, etc. For me it was two-fold: 1) a health issue and 2) I've always tried to think outside of the box since I was young. Some people do have seeds planted but just don't have the right growing conditions, if that makes sense. I think another analogy is like pouring sand through a small funnel; if you leave it alone it slowly comes out - but, if you try to force it through in attempts to speed it up, it just clogs up.
There are billions of people to help. Don't worry about your subscribers. There are many other ways to have a positive impact in the world + make money..
CLEARLY SHILLING FOR THE BROCCOLI INDUSTRY!
The broccoli industry? What companies make up this consortium? What is there marketing budget? What is there strategy for brand labelling? What studies have they funded? What percentage of there budget is devoted to lobbying in Congress to support bills that benefit Big Broccoli? What are you talking about? Not rhetorical, I'm actually really confused....
child of destiny I am pretty sure they were being sarcastic.
DaniJo2320 -so was I ;-)
Lmao

I am close to 100 % Whole Food Plant Based and it all started years ago with Neal Barnard's 21-Day Kickstart book. 10 days in and I was hooked on becoming a healthy eater. Some little puffy areas on my ankles that had been there for over 10 years were gone. I had figured they were just natural but seeing them totally gone was awesome. He was my first healthy-eating expert and I still often refer to his books. I still use his great recipes , tweaking some to be SOS free.
He may have a save-the-animals&the-planet agenda but I don't think it is his top agenda. At least he doesn't bombard me with it while teaching human health.
As a Christian who knows Jesus personally, I really am going to live forever. 👍 Dr Barnard is helping me enjoy a long healthy life here on earth which enables me to live a life of compassion towards people and to be a good steward of God's creation !
"As a Christian who knows JESUS personally..."
When did you last meet him? What was he wearing at that meeting? What did he look like? Was he White? Black? Brown? Olive?
You lost me at "as a Christian".
@@ArmageddonIsHere He was glowing!
The best part is saving the animals from unwatchable torture and violence and eating what's best for our health are done by the same change in our diet 😊
Dr. Barnard is so knowledgeable and I trust 100% of what he says. I have been vegan for about 2 weeks and feel better already! I did see the film "What the Health" and that made so much sense to me! I feel so bad for the animals being killed and the brutal treatment the animals go through. I am all done with meat products and all that comes from animals. Thank you Dr. Barnard.
0:39 "I think those people would do better to have a little more fiber in their diet." What a wonderful way to say that someone is full of s@!t.
Very genuine and honest, Dr Neal Barnard should be given the nobel peace prize.
yeah - he deserves it as much as Kissenger. And his advice may end up killing as many
Best idea to 🎖 honour such an adorable compassionate doctor who has brought a change in the global outlook of staying healthy. Can't thank him enough.
Every time I have heard Dr Barnard speak he is always very informative and polite. He tells the truth, but in a way that doesn't seem like as attack. He has a very good character and demeanor about him. You can get a good vibe from him that he's definitely being genuine.
Being a Seventh-Day Adventist, I watched lectures by Prof. Walter Veith about milk and diet. I stopped drinking milk and dairy products, then my chronic back pains ended. Now I am reducing my meat intake, and my shoulder joint stopped aching. Also no constipation and other dietary diseases. I would advise anyone, if you can't be a vegan/vegetarian because of your faith, then do it because of the science that proves that animal products are harmful and plant based diet is healthier.
Thank you for this amazing interview @Plant Based News!!! I like the way Dr. Barnard talks, he is not aggressive with his arguments and he's got the science behind him. I love how he goes "Not done yet" in the end. Great effort in 2017 and keep it going! As Nelson Mandela said: "It always seems impossible, until it's done."
Dr. Neal Bernard is awesome!
Two years ago I was a pretty heavy smoker, ate a LOT of processed meat and lots of other animal products. Started by stopping to smoke half a year ago and have been going veggie, trying out vegan for two weeks now, I already feel a LOT more energy than I have had for a while. I hope for an improvement of my constant colds and also better Cardiovascular health! 🌟😊
I went vegan last October for ethical and environmental reasons, I really didn’t anticipate how much better I would feel health wise, one of the best decisions I’ve ever made to be honest
He speaks so gingerly; very pleasant :)
I really like the way you interview people!
I went vegan and slipped back to the western diet. I then saw what the health and after viewing the documentary, I changed my life forever. This is one thing I have taken for face value and don’t regret it. Go Vegan!
Thomas Mack
Hopefully you are still vegan. If not, get with it.💚
Vegan the only way for me. Best Decision ever!
Melissa Vegan until pernicious anemia, iron deficiency and calcium deficiency knock at your door.... Vegan is insanely dangerous in the medium and long term..
Willy et scientia, you need to do some research.
Last I checked spinach had iron, and with it lightly steamed and with a splash of lemon juice, there is no build up of calcium deposits that can contribute to future kidney stones.
Kale has lots of calcium, especially if eaten raw, such as in a kale, avocado, red onion salad.
Phytochemicals actually target cancer stem cells. If one researches on PubMed and other such sites, this can be verified
Please use Ecosia.org as your research engine, they are involved in reforestation efforts

He's been one of my favorite people for the past 30 years. What a blessing he is. Interesting all the thumbs down on here. Someone must purposely scout out videos about plant based eating just to disagree.? Sad.
I have the feeling that every meateater on this planet tries to debunk "What the health" lol
Mic is awesome. I want to see Vegan Gains debunk Joe Rogan. Again.
The earth is flat ... and Dr. Barnard knows that, he is a controlled freemason doctor ... telling some truth about diet, but mixing in lies such as the fake globe earth. That's the way the crappy freemasons/elites roll. When I asked him once why he doesn't tell the complete truth about certain things ... he wrote to me ... "I can't" ... and when I discussed the fact that mastectomies don't do anything to prevent or cure breast cancer ... he replied, "I know, but there's nothing I can do about it." He's a good doctor in many ways ... but his hands are tied by his freemason controllers.
Bigotry unfortunately is not limited to nutrition.
can't understand why, if they have an invested interest money wise you can understand the reasoning behind it but if your just a meat eater why be so against people turning to veganism when there is so much much benefit to it? for a start we wouldn't have a failing nhs here in england, less deforestation, less co2, less torture and abuse of animals and i'm not just talking about farm animals, how many vegans are there that abuse dogs, cats, foxes etc..?
I can only put people's hatred of veganism down to them not liking change in the world?
Luk Plee why you have to make a cult of everything? Money? Influence? Sponsors? Idiocy? Dammit, if you don't like meat, great! But why the damm labeling? "Meat eaters", "round earthers" etc. Complete idiocy, a sign of tribalism and ignorance
what a beautiful Human being. Thanks for your enlightenment Doc!
Enjoyed some mixed greens, w/ kidney beans, mushrooms and salsa in whole grain wraps today. Delicious. Plant based is the way to go.
You know how good that sounds right now
gross
Delicious 😋
love this man! smart and compassionate with a hint of vegan sass!
Thank you Dr. Barnard for describing the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. Especially that dairy
may be a possible cause of Type 1. My 9 year old is a Type 1 (diagnosed at 6). He's been on a vegan along with his 11 year old sister for almost years now. People ask me why I'm feeding them this way... *Health (trying to prevent any other autoimmune diseases especially Type 1 in my 11 year old. Their endocrinologist has never argued the diet with me. He has just stressed to make sure they're taking a B12 supplement. He has also recommended a calcium(V) and D3(V) supplement for the 11 year old. She has bone density of an eight-year-old and is producing low growth hormones. As for protein, he said just make sure they're getting enough. *For The Animals. We love animals so much. I myself have been on and off Vegan/Vegetarian for years. Completely went vegan with the kids. Thank you for everything you do.
The fact that you need supplements should be a big hint that the vegan diet is not natural. Where do you suppose our paleolithic ancestors purchased their B12 from?
Plant-based news promotes propaganda that fish is unhealthy and actively prompts vegan junk food from subway and KFC and McDonald's so what is it is vegan about your health or the animals if it is about health then why do you make videos when a non-vegan restaurant make vegan junk food I but go all on abord when talking about unprocessed food like fish I wonder
Plus
The title should be why vegan doctors like to hate anything that's non-Vegan I can make a whole video about why brown rice is unhealthy because the high level of arsenic cause cancer so therefore brown rice is unhealthy what about the DHA IN Fish is better than ALA in plants and much more bioavailable I think I would rather listen to what longest living healthy Japanese are eating whole food unprocessed diets
just because most vegans are less likely to smoke and drink alcohol and eat less processed food doesn't mean that vegan diets are Heather at all the fact that pesco-vegetarians had the lowest hazard ratio for all-cause mortality in the Adventist Health Study 2 despite pollution? I can see the ecological and other ethical problems with eating seafood, but doesn't epidemiology contradict the claim that a vegan diet is healthier than a pescovegetarian diet?

So Well done interview. Such Highly important subject. Really delighted to listen to it. Thank you. 👍🌱
I always truly enjoy hearing what Dr Neal Barnard has to say. Thanks Klaus for another great interview!
I've been vegan 35 years its beautiful! I have birth 6 kids my weight 140pds 5f 7in. no stretch marks swim suit tone body. I'm 55
00000 beautiful Wow! How do you get B12?
Irene Max unfortunately because of the “concrete jungle” that we currently live in, it seems all humans are pretty insufficient with b12 levels. That’s why animals are fed the supplement so that humans get it. Better to skip the steps and just take a supplement yourself meat eater or not!
No stretch marks has nothing to do with being vegan lmfao!! 😂😂
Faeriedreamin stars right...that’s genetics
gary zemek it is a lot to brag about. I’ve had 7 babies and wear a size 6. So mind your business. Jealous!
Watching this when having breakfast is actually a very nice experience 🙃
Thank you for this nice interview (as always)! :)
14:50 appreciate what he says about compassion, wish all doctors felt this way
is it just me or does he look really young for 64???
@bubble butt Go away. He looks younger than his age because unlike "Bubble Butt", he has DECENCY, eats a vegan diet, and has a calm demeanor. He might practice meditation as well.
For 50 years I suffered with migraines. I tried different remedies including medication, exercise, diets (like the diet recommended in Heal Your Headache by the Johns Hopkins expert on headache), etc. Some of these remedies helped somewhat, but the migraines returned. More recently, within the last 5-10 years I started having peripheral artery pain, sciatica, pain in the back of my neck. I thought this was just a matter of aging: Live with it. About 3 years ago I decided to follow a paleo diet because eggs, meat, etc were so nutritious. They certainly were delicious. But why did my pain never get better? I would never follow a vegan diet! How dangerous! Where do these people get their protein, their nutrition? When I heard that some pregnant women were following a vegan diet I would become incensed! How dare they endanger their babies. I bought the traditional animal products' line totally. Finally, I heard about nutritionfacts.org and started to question my beliefs. Now after following a whole foods plant based diet for the past five months I can say that all my migraine, sciatica, neck pain and leg pain is gone. Maybe this diet doesn't work for everyone, but if you have migraine pain try Dr. McDoogles ultimate weight loss diet or Chef AJ's ultimate weight loss diet. The greens were and are key to my transformation. Try to eat as many greens and low density vegetables earlier in the day. Not only do they stave off food cravings, but I found that when I woke up with a headache, which used to happen quite often, I would eat about 10 ounces of kale (with the stems) and my headache would disappear. Now I just eat as many greens as I feel like to begin the day. Later in the day I eat legumes and potatoes. No pain.
Amazing!
So Proud of u💚
How is your mental clarity, have you noticed any difference?
my mom keeps asking me .... "anyone who's proposing plant-based lifestyle, are they hiding something" I go "like what" .... she goes, "well, it can't be just 100% good for you." and I go into explaining to her in length why it's just that good!! ;-)
Yep, that's exactly what we do in our conversations. She has a lot of questions and thankfully, I have lots of info from amazing plant-based doctors like Neil Barnard that I am able to provide her with all the needed info. She gets it, just needs a little more time to sink in. :-D
hahaha and yet all the proponents are doctors who are trying to cure patients (drying up their income), who advise AGAINST expensive supplements, don't sell produce, and offer so much information for free you don't have to buy their books... so.... ????
Maybe you can tell her what Dr. Mcdougall says (paraphrasing): How many smokers improve their health when you get them to stop smoking? How many alcoholics improve when they don't drink anymore? In much the same way, when you stop eating the foods that harm you, and eat the foods that protect and nourish you your health has to improve.
I know!!!! The skepticism of "it can't be that simple" ... "well, yes it is, mom" LOL
I'm somewhat hiding my disappointment in people
I love this guy! He's so kind and his "bedside manner" is refreshing. And it would be great to have him as my family Doctor. Outstanding interview!
He's a psychiatrist & it is my understanding he only does research now, but yes, he is a wonderful human being!
"If it were any worse it would be asphalt" had me ROLLING!!! My last barrier to Veganism. I still do small amounts of cheese occasionally especially when eating out and/or on the road (vegetarian dishes)and minute amounts of butter sometimes when cooking at home. 100% plant based whole food besides that and feeling great.
Mr barnard is a true boss!!!
Kristoffer Lysgaard Ⓥ I
I am a meat eater. And the more I study on this stuff like this. The more I am believing. I am diabetic. Also been low on most my vitamins. Have had to have 5 shots of B12. Having to take supplements for it. I love Cheese. But I notice anymore how I feel after I eat it. I feel horrible as in hurting all over. My doctor says I need protein. I asked her what about beans. She said that is good. I looked up and beans have more calcium then chicken does. It is hard to get off that stuff. Starting today. I'm trying to wing off soda. I already don't eat red meats. I don't drink milk. I went to Nut milk. I have bad allergies all the time. And it's frustrating. I'm on a fixed income. And when I was eating healthier. I found it cheaper.
Jamie Crisp try lots of green leafy veg for calcium, especially bok choi......get some tofu and fry it up with spices instead of chicken. Try oat milk, thick and satisfying!! Best of luck.
Good on you for watching this! Check out these videos on diabetes from Nutritionfacts.org who read 10's of 1000's of studies! nutritionfacts.org/what-causes-insulin-resistance "Prediabetes and type 2 diabetes are caused by a drop in insulin sensitivity blamed on “intramyocellular lipid,” the buildup of fat inside our muscle cells."
nutritionfacts.org/video/diabetes-as-a-disease-of-fat-toxicity/ "The “twin vicious cycles” explain how the buildup of fat in the cells of our muscles, liver, and pancreas causes type 2 diabetes, which explains why dietary recommendations for diabetics encourage a reduction in fat intake."
nutritionfacts.org/video/lipotoxicity-how-saturated-fat-raises-blood-sugar/
"The reason those eating plant-based diets have less fat buildup in their muscle cells and less insulin resistance may be because saturated fats appear to impair blood sugar control the most."
nutritionfacts.org/video/diabetes-reversal-is-it-the-calories-or-the-food/ "Even when study subjects were required to eat so much that they didn’t lose any weight, a plant-based diet could still reverse type 2 diabetes in a matter of weeks."
Good luck with your journey. It's a great time to come to plantbased, there is so much awareness and help available :-) 😘🌱💚
So great that you are educating yourself! Even allergies and chronic inflammation improve when you go to a whole-food plant-based diet -- especially cutting out all dairy. Maybe check out Dr. Greger's book "How Not to Die" for a great reference :) Best of health!
If you can make it two weeks you will find it so much easier, like most addiction. I remember after the 2nd week we stopped craving meat and cheese then after a month some of it actually smells off putting. Good luck and remember that the package stuff Is exspensive make your own been burgers and such to save even more money, good luck.
For some reason I find this doc really attractive. Right since I watched what the health 😊🙈
I think Dr NealBernard is so genuine. I watched the film which was life changing and now I am going Vegan
Awesome interviews lately. Congrats :D
"As a vegan I'm going to live forever" so many facts right there lol ❤❤❤❤
Im working at the Health Care Facility. I asked one senior woman 97 yrs.old for what is her secret for being healthy, bec. she didn't take any medications as maintenance, nothing at all at her age. She said she eats chicken soup with different kinds of vegetables on it.( no chicken meat) just soup. She's plant based diet. And she's just drinking at room temperature water. She said too cold water is not good to our body system. I said why? She said is not good for our veins ( thinnest) and arteries to remove toxins from our body. Her logical idea I think is right. 97- yrs old zero meds. maintenance. This is a gift of life.
Awesome Job restores my confidence in the soul of one doctor. Would like to see more doctors like this.
"Not done yet."
Great interview of a great mind in epidemiology and nutrition, with the best of conclusions.
Dr. Neal Barnard is great.
Right
Hard to believe he's 64 years old.
Aron A
Wait... he looks like he's in his 40s
Just searched it, he's born 1953 ! That just shows how accurate and right what he says is.
mevofr I showed a picture of him to my mom and asked how old she thought he was, she said late FORTIES!!!
All blessings for Dr Neal
keep the good work u r an amazing person
i don't understand how some people see this with their own eyes and still don't believe it!!!!!
Must have a lot of cells and veins blocked, for sure.
Lets start the new Era, the world deserves it, and we deserve it.
Wisdom, class, intelligence, elegance. What an inspiring human. Thank you for all you do, Dr Barnard.
Thanks for the great interview.
Eating a veggie stir fry while watching this.
Mark Kennedy Do you add a sauce of any kind?
Ohhh I love Dr Neil Barnard. He is so attractive
What the health took me from a walker, a gallon zip lock bag of meds, chronic pain, chronic migraines, diabetes, high cholestorol, high blood pressure, gut issues, atrhristos , osteo arthritis, r.a. sleep apnea, joint pain , neuropathy, neck pain degenerate discs ,muscle spasms and weakness, spinal stenosis and more to full health. This documentary. Changed my life for the better! To try and debunk a vegan or plantbased lifestyle is insane. The documentary is legit and my body isbthe proof.
Disease cancer ect is a business and Im glad Im not throwing money in a bottomless pit anymore
It's refreshing to see such a well-thought out interview.
I want him to be my dad
@bubble butt Some of us, want a calm & DECENT dad. He never raises his voice, is patient & kind. He keeps the Hippocratic Oath (1st do no harm, but unlike most "Drs.", he includes animals in that oath) & doesn't get aggressive, or use profanity, to make a point (far cry from The View). He can debate well, etc. So what decent person wouldn't want a dad like that?
@bubble butt No he doesn't TROLL. He & Earthling Ed, are decent and temperate people, unlike your crude, & obnoxious self. RESPECT, is much different than lust. Whom ever lusts after someone, does not respect them.
The science is SOLID......
Absolutely amazing video, THANK YOU!
