DID YOU FIND WALDO? He is pretty hard to find in my video but not as hard to find as the logic behind the FDA's view on cholesterol here.
Spotted the grey hairy Waldo
Nope...no Waldo. 🕵
Just dirt and smudge, hiding my ambiguously, cracked screen.

bottom right
The 2015-2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans includes the following text on page 32: "Strong evidence from mostly prospective cohort studies but also randomized controlled trials has shown that eating patterns that include lower intake of dietary cholesterol are associated with reduced risk of CVD."
Just above this text on the same page of the guidelines: "The Key Recommendation from the 2010 Dietary Guidelines to limit consumption of dietary cholesterol to 300 mg per day is not included in the 2015 edition, but this change does not suggest that dietary cholesterol is no longer important to consider when building healthy eating patterns. As recommended by the IOM, individuals should eat as little dietary cholesterol as possible while consuming a healthy eating pattern."
how are you still alive you easily take 10+ supplements
So tired of our government agencies run and dictated to by big money lobbyists. Thank you for this well researched video Mike!
Yet most people support their capitalist country.
@@goku445 that's the sad truth.
welcome to the side effects of laissez faire capitalism. #downwithgreed
Many government agencies now recommend a vegan diet and lifestyle. I guess they have been coerced by "big money lobbyists" also, huh?
Never trust the government.
The FDA lets glyphosate be in our food. They stink.
Corrupted agency filled with big Agra industry influence. To be ignored and the smart ones out there will know what to eat and avoid. Eggs being one of them.
Also worth a watch: Suppressing the cure to cancer for 30 years. About how the FDA completely went after a doctor having success with a cancer cure. It's about dr. S. Burzynski.
They and other Governmental agnecies are sadly, evil. CPS was selling, not
saving, children. Wait until the truths ome out.
so because of that eggs are bad too lol wow vegans really have to play mental gymnastics nowadays huh
The FDA, USDA, NIH, etcetera are run by criminals and traitors. They have been attempting to make us all sick for many years. GMO's are another ploy.
Wait until these truths surface, soon...
japan on average eats 287 eggs a year. they also have the lowest cvd. average life expectancy is 85 years old.
heart disease in Japan continues to grow as they adopt a westernized diet. It will continue to get worse as the data catches up. Since they import most of their eggs, American egg farmers should take note before the Japanese wise up. Thanks for pointing out that a snapshot in time is worthless for measuring health and longevity of a population.
But they must be healthy-Eric-"I'm not actually a doctor"Berg says they are and personally I prefer to get my health advice from a chiropractor sponsored by the meat and dairy industry.Interesting to note the plant based doctors-the ones that actually reverse disease-say the exact opposite.Keep up the good work Mic.
Don’t call this guy Berg a doctor. Guys who crack bones and pretend they are nutritional experts were called snake oil vendors in the old days.
Says the one that listens to a vegan soyboy with zero credentials
@@jassa2160 if Jassa had any brains or intelligence then she/he/it would be able to understand soyboy. But family genetics failed you so sad. Try soy milk… f&$k it’s good.
Yeah, why does this Berg guy has so many subscribers?
What disease does a plant based diet reverse 😂
It could be in response to the loss of market share/predicted losses as avian epidemics become common, due to this latest avian flu. Feeling paranoid that the medical industrial complex got to the FDA, too, fearing loss of revenue if cholesterol-related disorders wane. It's just so cynical. This was a very good review of the recommendations, so thanks for posting!
Totally agree with you! Meanwhile, the food monopolists are raking in the profits and blaming the higher prices on inflation. A report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed that inflation slowed a bit in January, but the prices of alcohol, meat, poultry, fish and EGGS rose MORE than inflation between then and the middle of February. I even heard a program on public radio that seemed to be toeing industry's line, supporting the idea that the rise in egg prices was inevitable (due to avian flu, at least), AND that eggs were a necessary consumer good! SMH, and very appreciative of Mic!
Just another scamdemic.
OMG I give up. I'll just let everyone around me live with a higher risk of death and disability.
Do not give up!
I know just like cancer risk from processed meat
It's hard. I guess early graves and animal cruelty are things people just don't think about. So sad.
@Scarlett you never know what you can say to them! It is so confusing though that people would rather stick carcass and sex fluids in their body than live healthy with their grandkids. You can still make a black bean BBQ burger. Then if everyone is eating plants you get to still eat with people. And then everyone in the world eats and for way less cost cause there is more food for all.
God damn, you folks are utterly lost.
Good egg-splanation! 🐣
2 steps forward and 5 steps backward they really don’t care just like big tobacco, wait a minute they are big tobacco. 😕thanks mic😊
Obviously fewer people are consuming eggs, and now the egg industry is nervous!!! Yes, the egg board is 'slimy'. Great research as usual, Mic. Thanks.
Not just that, dairy, specifically milk. In just 20 years, the dairy section in our supermarkets have exploded with motherless milk products. They've even invaded the yogurt section. I've never seen so many plant based yogurts. And this is our regular supermarkets, not just Whole Foods.
no, many people are eating eggs still - that is why there has been a supply chain issue in the US after the Avion flu in laying chickens. Also many people have bought chickens and are keeping them in their backyards now as well
As a vegan chef, this really hits hard because people like me have to deal with the people who trust organizations like the FDA over us on a daily basis. Even chatgpt says that eggs are healthy. I don't even know why I try anymore, we can't win....
The FDA says GMO foods and Rbgh and covid jabs are "safe". The USDA colluded
with OSHA and changed the way slaughterhouse worker industries injuries were
reported. "Majic"!, slaughterhouse work is no longer listed as one of the "most dangerous jobs". Look, most humans will eat what they want,. healthy or not. But
you are correct, the Gov't of the USA lies to us all the time. Be yourself.

eggs have nearly every vitamin you need what exactly is unhealthy about it? Just because you're lost and depressed in life doesn't mean the rest of us are like you. Like I don't even feel bad for you pathetic nerds anymore even just the tiniest amount of common sense tells you exactly what you need to know. But no you nerds need to go buy factory processed food and convinced it's healthier. It's really a mental sickness you guys have I'm sorry you're suffering like this
If chatgpt says it's healthy then it is.
@bruceparker6142 chat-gpt Aldo said that eggs are loaded with saturated fat and cause heart disease . So there's that...
Your take on eggs was long on conspiracies and short on science. The VAST majority of cholesterol in your small intestine comes from secreted bile salts. Reducing dietary cholesterol will only make a small difference in serum cholesterol absorption and its variability is largely determined genetically by your NPC1L1 receptors and your abcg5/g8 transporters. Not saying that everyone should eat a lot of eggs, but you should have at least mentioned that the vast majority of cholesterol is endogenous for scientific perspective.
He does nothing but cite sources, then you come along making claims with no source.
Eggs are incredibly healthy.
I eat 3-5 eggs every day. Home grown eggs from my own chooks. So I know they are the highest quality.
People always say the cholesterol is going to kill me but these are the same people who don't actually do the research. Our body produces its own cholesterol. Eating eggs just means we don't need to make as much and we can make anywhere from 1000-3000mg of cholesterol every day pending on size and weight. In short, don't factor in cholesterol. Besides eggs are a complete protein. Eating the entire egg (not overcooked) is one of the only proteins that our body processes at a super high efficiency even higher than meat and far far higher than vegetable proteins.

Tell us you know nothing about nutrition without saying you know nothing about nutrition.
@@chuckybang you know nothing about nutrition
@@chuckybang I know vegans are better educated, stronger, faster, will live three maybe four times longer than a non vegan. I have a non vegan diet myself I have a four egg omelette every morning for breakfast. And with being a volunteer firefighter and EMT I have to have a physical every year to make sure I am healthy enough to go into a burning building to carry someone out if need be. Doctor tells me that my blood work is excellent every year and I pass the physical with flying colors. But my doctor doesn't know what good lab results are or nutrition neither do those lab technicians and the nurses who draw my blood. In fact my doctor gets large kickbacks from the meat and dairy industry. He even told me now if all those people I mentioned were vegans I know I would be deemed unfit for duty on the department.
@@shawndarling1980 As long as you know you are inferior in every way. Keep on being a beta.
Yes! Thank you for mentioning Chile! (And for pronouncing it correctly ☺️) It does work! It is super useful to have that information right on the package.
Love from Greece ❤
Thanks for keeping it real Mic.
Being vegan just FEELS so good and it feels RIGHT
how long are you vegan? 3 months? lets talk again in 10 years my friend :D
@@adidkjf No shortage of 10+ year vegans healthy and thriving.
@@e.h97 I don't HAVE to take any supplements, but I do because I want to optimize my health, just like many non-vegans. Most people with a b12 deficiency aren't vegan. Meat isn't a reliable source of b12 unless the livestock have been supplemented with it. So if you're eating meat then you're taking just as many supplements as any vegan, only in a more roundabout and inefficient way.
@@e.h97 supplements exist because of meat eaters are deficient in everything eventhough they say the opposite. Multivitamins because meats are lacking them, lactose intolerance pills because people are not meant to drink and eat dairy, reflux and acidity pills because saturated fats from meats provoke them and it goes on and on.
It is quite absurd to believe plant based foods are lacking nutrients when there are easily more than 100,000 types of edible plants, vegetables, roots, seeds, grains and nuts, and them in conjunction to be missing essential nutritients (except from B12 that is a bacteria from the soil).
@@adidkjf How about Jehina Malik, a vegan since birth, a 40+ years old female bodybuilder. She is probably stronger than you. How come she is still alive and healthy after 40+ years on a vegan diet?
czcams.com/video/BgzOIROVVBI/video.html
well either way people aren't gonna stop eating them i don't think most people care if they're healthy or not
So, we need to make them care about chickens more... 😔
@@biancat.1873 yeah we can't most people just don't care or think you're a crazy person if you do
@@biancat.1873most don't care about other human's as well..
Whether some people will eat them or not the government should not sanction them as healthy if they are not.
Thank you Mic for wading through all the BS, it's one thing to know it's BS, it's another to take it apart and point out exactly where the 💩is!
I’m so thankful for PCRM and Dr. Greger and you, Mic for getting this vital information out to the masses.
I second that. Really, it’s very sad that we have to rely on people like Mike for the truth because the government is too corrupt to put the people first.
The notion that dried spices are not healthy because they are a 'processed' food is why I prefer the phrase 'refined' food as refined foods have actually been shown to do serious harm to people over time whereas 'processed' foods like dried herbs and spices and vinegar have actually been shown to provide benefits in the diet. I am just really glad I don't have to follow all of the new dietary guidelines. Thank you for this upload. 😊
Same with whole wheat pasta.
Health is not about what you are eating and using through exercise, as much as what you what you aren’t eating or using. If you really like a particular dish or food it isn’t going to become unhealthy, if you ate that every meal you’d be missing nutrition and vitamins which leads to all the health problems. Unused carbs and protein will both transform into fat as well.
@@rmac3217 Diet may not be the only factor in health or obesity but it is a major factor. Seeing as how spices and vinegar have virtually no calories, a person is not likely to gain any weight by consuming them no matter how much they consume of the spices or vinegar. Now processed meat on the other hand may be an issue as it can and has done people who consume it harm as it is considered a carcinogen after all, but in my previous comment, I was only referring to plant based foods. Processed plant based foods as long as they haven't been highly heated, overcooked, nor had anything removed in their processing are usually perfectly healthy and nutritious.
@@rmac3217 Yes health is mostly what you are eating.
As they say, you are what you eat.
Also you can like a meal but if you eat it too often you will get bored of it. It is our body's strategy to diversify our diet so we don't miss any nutrient.
Tell me about it. According to the FDA bleached white wonder bread is the exact same as my 10 hour risen, 24 hour proofed sourdough with a homemade starter.
The egg topic was the one that finally introduced me to Nutritionfacts ten years ago. For me, the egg topic led me to better health, but away from the eggs.
Ppl who eat eggs live longer. Good luck in your delusional vegan ideology
@@GarudaLegends Good luck and good health to you and your family!
New research contributes to the ongoing debate of whether eggs are good or bad for you - and this time, the news isn't sunny side up.
The study, published in February 2021 in PLoS Medicine, found that every additional half egg participants ate per day was associated with a 7 percent higher risk of premature death from all causes. Also, every extra 300 milligrams (mg) of cholesterol per day was linked to a 19 percent higher risk of dying early.
Results from this study mirror findings from a study published in March 2019 in the Journal of the American Medical Association that also examined the risks of eggs and cholesterol. This earlier research found each additional half egg consumed per day was tied to an 8 percent greater risk of death from all causes, and each extra 300 mg of cholesterol was linked to an 18 percent higher risk of premature death.
Apparently, it is unhealthy to eat half of an egg because it is not a whole food 🙃
Same here. One of the first videos I saw.
Me too. The "who says eggs aren't healthy" video. 👍 Such a pity we have such muddying of the waters now.
Eggs are healthy. Veganism is a red herring.
Serum cholesterol and triglycerides "shoot up" after consuming foods containing fat and cholesterol because those substances are being broken down and transported as necessary. After that's done, the levels go down, that's normal and expected after a few hours. There's a problem when a person has persistently elevated triglycerides or cholesterol. The graphs you showed demonstrated that eating cholesterol does not cause persistently elevated cholesterol. The body goes back to homeostasis after a meal, if the person is healthy.
The American Heart Association says one whole egg a day or two egg whites max. That is who I look to for heart health not the FDA. The U.S. MyPlate has dairy recommended while Harvard’s healthy plate recommends water as does Canada’s food guide. The dairy and egg industry have likely lobbied hard to maintain their place despite large numbers of Americans being lactose intolerant and the links of cholesterol to heart disease. Money talks in the U.S.
Exactly, and if you have any issues like high cholesterol or heart disease, then 1 egg is too much according to the WHO. If we can advise on health measures (that barely anyone listens to) after the fact (i.e. disease) then we can surely advocate better preventative measures. This is clearly not the case though with capatalism mudying the waters.
@@cazzawazzadingdong5139 The perfect world would be a vegan communist world. It would be only the state that would make money. It would be the state that tells it's citizens what they can say, think, and what the citizens can do with their lives as long as it is vegan friendly. Veganism and communism go hand in hand.
@@cazzawazzadingdong5139 Until those organizations will say eggs are good for you and then what excuse will you have? You will say they were bought?
people with higher cholesterol tend to live longer. It seems counter-intuitive but its been well backed up by many studies across many countries. The number of eggs you can safely eat is highly correlated with how much you exercise. People who never exercise should NOT eat a lot of eggs
Thanks for the great video! The oxidation of LDL caused by eating eggs was new information for me, thanks for explaining that. I was wondering why Dr. Gil of "Nutrition made Simple" says eating eggs does not raise your cholesterol. Btw, I eat a vegan diet since 6 years, before that I was lifelong vegetarian, and I ate an egg sometimes just because I thought I needed to eat it to stay healthy. I am so glad I found your channel, and in the comments of your video I read about the book "How not to Die" from Dr. Micheal Greger. Saved my mothers life (she could lower her blood pressure and lower her LDL cholesterol with plant based diet).
That's why i prefer dr. Peter Roger's videos, he doesn't beat around the bush. He also explains very clearly the biochemistry behind what is happening in our bodies. Like WHY LDL is bad (because it chances the polarity between the bloodcells causing them to stick).
I seem to recall from one of the episodes that Gil did with dr. Tom Dayspring that there's large individual variation in how much of dietary cholesterol actually makes it into an individual's bloodstream, but that for the majority of people it'll be a rather small percentage. In his "do eggs raise your cholesterol" video however, he appears to quite clearly state that eggs *do* raise blood cholesterol. So, with regards to cholesterol, I gotta say I'm still confused. Saturated fat, at least, is crystal clear.
@@ElteHupkes I'd be more worried if cholesterol wasn't something we can make ourselves. We can. So i just avoid the dietary ones, i believe drs. J. McDougall and P. Rogers are on the right track with their information about nutrition.
@@11235Aodh Oh I don't think there's much doubt that _not_ eating it is safe, for what it's worth. Nor am I worried for myself - I eat plant based. I'm just interested in the topic overall.
@@ElteHupkes Dr. Greger has another video where he showed how the egg board sponsored studies designed to show that eating eggs doesn't raise blood cholesterol (much).
The dietary cholesterol does not raise the blood cholesterol in a linear way. The blood cholesterol is raised most by the first dietary cholesterol ingested, then the curve flattens out.
Dr. Greger explained with this analogy: If a man has been drinking six glasses of wine and then drinks a beer, you could argue that beer does not have the ability to make a man drunk...
And the baseline blood cholesterol, when you don't ingest cholesterol is individual, but the raised blood cholesterol from eating dietary cholesterol has a neat mathematical formula which predicts your blood cholesterol with accuracy.
Thank you for this info.
It's maddening and depressing just how little our gov't cares about us.
Egg lobby is massive. The profits just aren’t enough for their stakeholders. This is hilarious
When you really know what it all involves...animal agriculture is the worst version of mafia.
who even listens to the FDA anyways? The FDA has been biased for many a decade now.
Cholesterol - I stopped eating meat, dairy, eggs and my cholesterol is down 130 points so far, but ok the egg board wants us to believe that dietary cholesterol won't impact you.
All the research I’m able to find says that dietary cholesterol has little impact on cholesterol levels and that most cholesterol in the body is produced by the liver and trigger by saturated and trans fats, not from dietary cholesterol. Can anyone help resolve this?
Mainly because the dietary cholesterol is more oxidized [by cooking] which directly causes the atherosclerosis.
The newest approch is, that genetics are kind of important as well. There are genes that determin how much dietary cholesterol you actually absorb.
Just another example of how people are kept ignorant (or at least confused) about health and nutrition. For instance, my parents have been lead to believe pork rinds are a health food because they're low carb.
I have relatives who keep thinking carbs are making them fat, yet they're still gaining weight avoiding them.
Oy vey!!!
My Dad used to say pizza 🍕 was healthy perhaps because he identified a vegetable or two on it
@@adiohead true. however whole plant foods are good carbs and have tons
of fiber in them.
Pork rinds are very healthy!
Keep doing what you are doing Mike . It’s like pushing water up hill .
Good news though EAT JUST the company that produces plant eggs recently said that their turnover is rocketing.
A matter of time before lab grown meat , plant meat takes over .
Recent report said 40% of all meat will be produced this way by 2040 .
Thanks .
Well, there are many unhealthy vegan processed foods and I would not eat them.
Others can eat them if they choose. Beyond meat is genetically modified and
not healthy ingredients, but many humans love them. I do not support "lab grown
meat" at all. And I am a long-time vegan. Cheers.
Just like how highly processed 'fortified' cereal is good for you...
It depends on the process, burgers and pizza are not unhealthy when done properly as well.
Fat is also personal, if you are an Olympic swimmer go ahead and eat 10,000 calories a day loaded with carbs and 2-3 litres of sugary drinks, in fact you will have to if you want to train to compete.
@@rmac3217 The thing is... it does not matter how much physical activity you do, you are still better of WITHOUT animal source of food, like milk, eggs, meat... There is no thereshold, there is even a big difference between vegans and vegetarians in the health markers.
You add animal foods, you add the risk, there is nothing healthy about them, no matter the dose or volume
@@Klaudiuszeg The 'evidence' for that tired old claim is 1 study of Adventists who essentially live in a cult town. Do you also not drink alcohol, caffeine, and sit around making craft all day out of boredom when not at bible study or church?
@@rmac3217 Bro, there is literally latest Stanford study made on siblings to rule out genetics.
Vegans improved all their markers.
If i could choose between healthy looking skin and strong hair on plant IF diet or taste of meat and culture around meat, i choose to eat plants. And its all due to polyphenols, flavonoids and antioxidants content of plant diet, and also reduction of IGF-1 in my body to slow down aging along with intermittent fasting benefits, i will do that. I get best of both worlds, ketosis during fasting state, lower sugar levels, and all the benefits of plant diet.
Dr Fuhrman has all the answers why vegan diet is simply superior for us to keep us in best shape possible for longest. There is a reason why Bryan Johson is vegan on intermittent fasting, slight caloric deficit on eating window with a diet that makes me full for entire day that is also healthy, sign me in immediately
Btw i already lost 21 kg on vegan IF since january with no exercise whatsoever
@@rmac3217 There is literally Stanford latest study on siblings to rule out the genetics. Vegan improved all their markers.
I choose to eat vegan diet on intermittent fasting, so i get best of both worlds. Ketosis in fasting state and all benefits from plants. All the flavonoids, antioxidants and other benefits from plants combined with intermittent fasting benefits of increasing HGH, collagen clean up and build up and more.
There is no healthier way of eating than Vegan IF, you dont have to belive it, Dr Fuhrman and Bryan Johnson have all the answers.
Not only that, rampant conflict of interest!!!!!!
Definition of healthy: Whole Plant Foods prepared or cooked at home with (if necessary) small measured amounts of salt, oil, and a sugar source(maple syrup, agave, date sugar, and cane sugar). I’m not a purist but a home cook trying to enjoy my meals.
What you mentioned sounds gross and not even healthy. Lol
Not healthy at all .sugar of all kind is bad for health
@@drHasanMedicine22 I’m not talking about drinking a big gulp of Mountain Due. I’m talking a tablespoon of agave and a pinch or two of salt in my quick pickled veg. A little olive oil on my greens. I love my peanut butter cookies with some date sugar cane sugar blend. Way less than the recipe calls for but I’m enjoying life.
the sugar source is not healthy, depending on the amount. I think its already too easy to go over the 40g per day. I would replace it with fruits vegs like carrots and potatoes.
Dont forget about spices and herbs, those are really healthy too.
I love my whole plant foods spices good.
I don't care whether eggs are healthy or not, they are cruel and unnecessary, that's all that matters. But I also cannot stand corrupt desinformation about nutrition, so I appreciate this video
Name on vegetable healthier and more nutritious than egg?
@@GarudaLegends tons of plant products are healthier and more nutritious than eggs, not just vegetables
@@russianvegangirl lies. Name one plant that has more nutrients than eggs? I will wait for your goffy response.
@Russian Vegan Girl already did. Eggs are mire nutritious and nutrient dense. You would know that eggs are superior than any plant, if you were not a stupid brainwashed vegan. Enjoy your short life for the animals
@@GarudaLegends just now compared tofu and eggs (both 100g) on cronometer: tofu has more than twice protein, even more fat (but good fat, not the saturated crap and cholesterol), more than 3 times more phosphorus, potassium, iron and zinc, 10 times more magnesium, manganese. And that's just one small example, which you're too stupid to check yourself. And according to multiple studies plant based eaters live much longer and healthier lives, so you enjoy your shorter life span for your taste buds and stubborn stupidity.
"we will measure it in the morning, 7 hours after supper" wow these people don't sleep a lot 🙃
I think it's pretty well accepted science now that dietary cholesterol does not significantly influence blood lipid cholesterol. Saturated fat consumption is the significant factor.
How to be a healthy food:
"Contain elements that are considered to be food" - FDA
Changing labels is not equal to changing reality. (If they deem cigarettes healthy, is everyone gonna start smoking them?) "Look guys! Coagulated breast milk and chicken menstration is healthy!" *Develops diabetes, cancer, and drops dead at 50.
Keep speaking the truth, Mic!
The oldest ppl to live drank milk and ate eggs. You dont live in reality. Lol
@@GarudaLegends Reality...then who exactly are filling up these hospitals?
@11235Aodh ppl who eat too much refined carbs and sugar, which is vegan. Not only that, the oldest ppl to ever love were meat eaters and a few vegan. Not a single vegan. Vegans die prematurely. So enjoy you short life for the animals?
@@GarudaLegends I eat whole foods plant based vegan. No vegan that values their own health is going to eat refined carbs and refined sugar. Veganism talks about who we DON'T eat, not about what we DO eat.
I mean we clearly see in the EU that labelling Cigarettes as extremly unhealthy and visible portraying the effects of cigarettes, does reduce the tabbacco consumption of the public.
So, the usual: politicians and animal ag industry in bed together. Thank you for putting this together, Mic! You, and others like you, are the heroes of our time.
I used to struggle to listen to your videos because the cognitive dissonance was too strong. I am working to become more and more plant based. I know for some that means I'm not doing enough, but it's a process and I am sticking to it. I found Andrew Bernard (the nard dog cooks?) whose recipes are easy and seem to have a lot of variety without being hyper processed.
Any other suggestions to make the cooking easy? I struggle to feed myself on good days, so always on the lookout for simple recipes that are highly nutritious.
Check out Kathie Carmichael's recipes, low fat whole foods plant based. Also Rainbow Plantlife and Cheap Lazy Vegan and Gaz Oakley are great vegan cooking channels. Oh and Simnett Nutrition haha, there's so many great ones. Plant based doctors i prefer to get my information from: dr. John McDougall and dr. Peter Rogers.
@@11235Aodh thank you for taking the time to respond. I look forward to checking these options out.
Thats the way. Don't listen to people that are negativ and say you don't do enough. Everyone has their speed and their available capacities. Changing your diet is easier to do at a slow rate. I did the same to get vegetarian and now i am slowly but surely drifting towards vegan, by exploring more and more thing i can comfortably cook and eat.
Congratulations on your journey, make an effort!. Easy? make enough of a meal
to last several days. Use a crock-pot to make chili, stew, soup= vegan. Make a
variety of veggie burgers and make 12 at a time. Lentil stew, 3 bean chili, tempeh
sandwiches, almond butter sandwiches, hummus, quinoa with tomato sauce,
vegan burritos/nori rolls/taco's, tons of healthy salads, smoothies...Visit a farm
animal sanctuary and meet the animals you eat...cheers.
I check boshtv and then vegan recipes from tasty.
There is just one simple rule...do not follow any guidelines on food if the government has anything to do with it.Any institution with self interests are best avoided.Rather follow the science,which is easy to do thanks to modern internet.
I like what you are saying, it is how it should be! Alas the science has also become polluted by industry. The average person busy with nine to five has limited time to decifer the fact from industry funded fiction (or simply can't be bothered) and there is also confirmation bias and cognitive dissonance associated with eating animal products. At this point what should be simple is no longer simple.😞
‘The science’ is an industry with self interests though, to make profit from private funding and govt grants.
@@rmac3217 "Big broccoli"in other words.Really?Every industry has self interests,you just have to use logic...in other words think for yourself,don't just believe blindly.
@@spandel100 Some idiot told me that every institution has self interests and is not to be believed, then said just trust the science... Who is 'the science' anyway, there was a time when different scientists existed with different opinions, but they were freelancers like Einstein and had their own body of work.
This labeling might just make things worse.
If a food is labeled healthy then people will undertand it as 'I don't need to care how much of it I eat'.
Every food has a dose response limit or if you eat too much of one, you are missing on other nutrients.
It would be much better to define sensible portion for of each food (or food group) and mark how often you should eat it - like 1/week, 2/day, and so on. They could mark it as 'at most' or recommended 'at least'.
Eggs is healthy. 4-6 a day is recommended
@@GarudaLegends I doubt that is a sensible number. Where did you get it?
A quick google search said up to 2 a day may be safe.
Perhaps that's why the price of eggs recently went thru the roof. They are health food now and we know health food is always more expensive.
Nah it's global inflation and the bird flu that's going on. If even one chicken has it, they have to kill the entire flock. That is why eggs are so expensive.
There's a UK tv game show, called 'Eggheads'! It's not actually about eggs, ...but if it was, you would probably win, no yolk.
Steak and eggs are basically superfoods.
YES, superfood for industries that make money on them, its super food indeed if it brings them billions of $$$
Red meat literally promotes inflammation which is one of the biggest causes of health issues and diseases.
…but high cholesterol will be the SUPER PROBLEM that results!
I think the point they are making (after listening to Peter attia's podcast) is that dietary cholesterol molecule is too big to pass through into the body and therefore it's no longer a concern. It would be interesting to analyse this statement.
My sister eats at least 4 eggs in the morning which is 250% cholesterol! Unreal, she thinks it's healthy and she thinks she has great energy from it and can out work anyone at the gym. I'm so worried about her with it!
There's a reason why you look unhealthy and she's healthy 😂
Amazing that a calcium-encased snotty substance which comes from a bird's cloaca appeals to anyone at all.
I’m eating 10 eggs a day as a teenager, I’m feeling good I don’t know :D, my father eats 4 eggs for breakfast cooked with tallow, he is 56 years old and he can do 20 pull ups and he is very healthy.
Great information and jokes as usual.
This is straight up scandalous. Thank you for the information and the research you put into this video
The Nov 15, 2022 episode of the podcast "Maintenance Phase" was about the food pyramid and how it was totally driven by the meat and dairy industries. It's so gross the way government agencies are bought 💰
A tip my hat to the Physicians Comity of Responsible Medicine, we owe them so much!
Taking Dr. Barnard's advice changed my life.
@@Itsunclegabby for the better I hope?
Now that they're able to speak up without having their careers and reputations destroyed, heck yeah!!
The FDA has been pushing high linoleic seed oils as "heart healthy" for decades though. They don't necessarily push animal based foods. School lunch programs were replacing fat with refined starches and in some cases sugar for quite a while too meet government guidelines of
Seed oils are healthy.
@@chloro8306 Just want to make sure you are saying, high linoleic (soybean and corn) seed oils are healthy which is what I said. Linoleic acid consumption worldwide correlates to type 2 diabetes more than any other food including high fructose corn syrup, saturated fat and animal protein. Linoleic acid raises mortality in rats at just 4% of daily caloric intake. It lowers cholesterol and heart attack death but raises all cause mortality in humans.
Even if you can rationalize somehow that high intake of high linoleic acid oils is healthy, I personally have a confirmed sensitivity to both corn oil, soybean oil (as well as wheat, cornstarch, oats and soybeans and milk) and those substances have among the highest rate of provoking sensitivities.
I feel like I understood everything for the 1st time in your video. So happy ❤😊
The drug industry is gonna love this . Statin sales will increase too.
Beefing vegan for 15 years made me sick, osteoporosis, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and lost all my muscle mass. I went carnivore and all my symptoms and problems went away . Vegetables might have alot of nutrients but not all people are able to digest them. Animal products are easier to digest and get nutrients from and eggs are full of nutrition just read the nutritional information on them.
Sadly they won't care in this space unless they start to have similar experiences as you do. Everyone should eat what makes them healthy as an individual, but ideology is stopping people from finding the best diet for themselves.
I am happy for you, that you could reverse your symptoms 🙏
Sounds like made up bullshit.
Really? A dude with the username "rifleman ruger" was vegan for 15 years?
Because they are a healthy food....🥚🍳
eggs are extremely healthy with one caveat: you exercise frequently. If you eat lots of eggs but never exercise, you are letting that cholesterol build up. Important fact that you failed to mention: people with higher cholesterol tend to live longer. It seems counter intuitive but its been extensively well backed up by numerous studies
Would eating two children every morning increase cholesterol?
Argh! This industry manipulation is so frustrating. Thank you for your valuable work, Mic!
In Mérida Mexico grocery stores have labels on food deemed high in salt and other things. Definitely made me think twice about buying some condiments :)
Carnist brains work differently. They think menstruations are yummy, heart attacks are healthy, and you can love animals while paying for them to be abused.
Animal products don’t cause heart disease sugar does
cholesterol is not the only problem, look at all the hormones of a birds menstrual cycle 'egg'
Remember, hormones only matter when you're talking about soy. You're not supposed to talk about all the estrogen in milk or anywhere else. lol
Birds don't have a uterus so they don't have a menstrual cycle.
@@beepbeepnj2658 yes they do they produce eggs once a month like other animals have periods
@@robinhood6143 Chickens don't have a uterus, so there's no endometrium and no periodic shedding of it. Therefore no period in birds. So you are wrong.
@@robinhood6143 wtf? Haha
We need a full documentary to explain the curvilinear effects of cholesterol and eggs.
Tbh I won't be surprised if eggs are actually healthy for americans since their diet is so terrible it might be better to eat a boiled egg salad rather than a 500ml soda
The older you get the more cholesterol you cells need to talk to each other. Do your homework!
Thanks Mic. Unbelieveable. When will the blatant lies end?
Consider the Canadian or Australian guidelines, they seem pretty science based (although not fully plant based).
I love eggs but unfortunately Im told that the choline in eggs dramatically increases the size and spread of prostate cancer and I can not take the risk
Thank you Michael Mikey Micerson :)
You go Mic The vegan! Great information. I have cut back on X50 percent By alternating with sauteed tofu For breakfast. Served with blueberries, pumpkin pie spice, chop tortillas, and trail makes on top with quality low sugar jam ! Absolutely delicious!
Thank you! We still, unfortunately , need as many sane voices such as yours to continue the nutrition war our government refuses to let go of. Even small gains make it worthwhile.
I've been subscribed to your channel for a long channel but admittedly haven't watched all your vids.. I just keep learning more and more about this stuff. Thanks for doing all this research.
Question for all the vegans…. Looking to have a respectful debate. If meat, eggs, etc are so unhealthy, and harmful for health, why humans in surviving conditions prize animal sources over vegetation?
technically eggs are pretty nutrient dense
however, they have several sus things in them that makes them double edged
Technically, what makes a food “nutritionally dense”?
@@professorjbennett whole food + covering (often rare) nutrients compared to other foods
in the case of eggs its choline phosphatidylserine and very high quality protein
bad is satfat cholesterol transfat and weird allergens
there is probably more unknown stuff to eggs tho, the yolk contains all nutrients to create life so its possibly kinda "complete" all by itself
You said it, your comment is so spot on! 👏👏👏
@@sooooooooDark you've accidentally stumbled upon a realization - there is no definition for "nutritionally dense". This is a marketing term designed to sell products, not a scientific term with any meaning.
@@professorjbennett no
nutrionally void things exist
its a spectrum
on one side there is things like wheatgerm, broccoli sprouts and chokeberries - and ond the other side there is things like white rice, oil, sugar and protein powder
Well good. About time labels were made more accurate.
All this is, is speculate, bad research with confounds and user bias. Show me true, truly controlled, long term clinical trials (which do not exist) without confounds and I'll be convinced.
Spices are generally considered to be healthy because they are derived from plants and are rich in phytochemicals and antioxidants, which have been shown to have health benefits. However, the FDA does not provide a specific "healthy" label for spices because they are not considered to be a significant source of nutrients.
Hi Mic, Happy Saturday.
Happy Saturday to you as well!
Thanks for sharing another well researched & informative video Mic. It is strange that spices aren't classified as healthy since they are plant foods but something that is the result of the chickens periods is classified as healthy. Love 🥰 the video.
Yeah I think it was totally just an oversight. They have pictures of spices in the USDA Dietary Guidelines so they are meant to be encouraged but I guess they don't fit into a food group even though they are dried vegetables? lol idk and didn't look too deep into that one.
Some spices are high in Thallium and upset people's stomach. Chickens don't have a uterus, so there's no endometrium and no periodic shedding of it. Therefore no period in birds. So you are wrong about chicken periods. Chicken miscarriages, well chickens don't get pregnant, so they can't have miscarriages. Instead of the mammalian method of the embryo burrowing into the endometrium and growing internally, the egg travels down the oviduct where it is fertilized if the hen has been inseminated by a rooster, acquires a shell, and then is laid. Go back to school and learn and then eat 1 egg per day like Dr. Leila Denmark did for over 100 years.
@@StanDupp6371 Your searching of Wikipedia for an explanation is commendable, but your inability to infer a colloquial use of menstruation analogies when we talk about eggs is sad. Eggs are not a health food, and hens are tortured for them, two good reasons to avoid them if one has the barest common sense and ethics.
@@tamcon72 Please provide a study and or scientific evidence to back your claims just rambling on your feelings shows you have zero credentials so prove it with facts so the world can see. Please state with exact facts how 1 boiled egg of 70 calories which have proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals that the body needs including vitamins A1, B12, D, K2, Choline, DHA, C15:0 and Sphingolipids, all 8 which destroy cancer cells and protect the heart is bad? Remember Japan is the country with the highest egg consumption rate, the highest life expectancy, the highest IQ and one of the lowest cancer and obesity rates in the world.
@@StanDupp6371 Wow, you ask for critical data and then insinuate that Japanese people have the highest IQ--not factual--and seem to attribute it to their egg consumption, which has only recently become the highest per capita globally, anyhow. Creepily eugenics-adjacent, that.
Further, their life expectancy is decreasing and their cancer rates, including those of highest mortality, are increasing as their diet becomes more Westernized--including increasing egg consumption, though not exclusively for that reason--and this is well known in current longevity research.
But you are also arguing that eggs, which have been causally linked to recurrence of prostate cancer in humans, have anti-carcinogenic potential merely because they contain some anti-oxidant vitamins, list as directly cancer cell-destroying nutrients which have not demonstrated such potential, and assert that eggs are protective to the heart--also not factual, because while reviews of meta-analysis suggest that moderate egg consumption has no adverse impact on heart health, this isn't the same thing as eggs having been specifically proven to prevent heart disease or to be otherwise cardiac-protective. I remind you that absence of evidence is not inverse proof.
Lots of things which have not been linked to high morbidity disorders have the nutrients that eggs have, without their high IGF-1 [controversial marker], saturated fat, and cholesterol content. There is nothing essential in eggs that we cannot get from healthier sources not linked to ANY poor health outcomes.
I will end by stating that the moral objection to eating eggs--that animals are tortured to produce them--which I mentioned in my first response, still beats all of your nutrition-based arguments.
Someone told me that the FDA said cholesterol is not a micronutrient of concern. What can I show her to contradict it?
Comparing crack to eggs? Really! The people of the Costa Rican blue zone eat eggs... What are you talking about?
Kind bars was predominantly free from dairy when they came on to the market in Denmark. Now only one is without milk products... 😢
hey you mentioned how DIAAS% isnt a good method to categorize protein quality, what is a better method?
The industry already controls our diet and government so it was a matter of time. T_T
What makes you think any industry didn't control any government body in the past? Maybe all the stuff you think are healthy are actually not? You should take everything with a grain of salt, even when you believe right now is right unless you tested it by yourself.
@@bomberman21321 Whole plant foods are healthy. The science is very clear on that, regardless of what the government might eventually try to claim. At least for now, even the USDA had to agree we'd be fine eating a vegan diet.
@@suicune2001 The consensus is clear, the science is subjective. It's like saying cholesterol is bad for you while they can't even prove causation, just a weak association. So if you feel great on plants then by all means but that doesn't mean everybody will.
@@bomberman21321 No, consensus is subjective and science is clear. There can be a consensus that eating nothing but Snickers candy bars is good for you but the science will say they are not. Or like when the consensus was smoking was good for us when the science said otherwise. Obviously, consensus can be bought and sold.
Yes, cholesterol is bad for you and that has been proven. Animal products are trash for our health and science backs it up.
The “what I’ve learned” can eat now as much as he wants.
Eggs, E.D. & Erroneousness
Food in America is nuts. It's more just edible than food.
Stop listening to Govts and eat as your common sense tells you.
Sadly, they're just not that healthy for the non-human animals. They majorly contribute to exploitation, the slaughterhouse and a grinding machine, for them.
Something to do with pharmaceutical companies again..$$$$$$……eat your eggs and take statins 😂
eggs have always been heathy, same with red meat, butter, raw milk...
"Rotten, sulphurous lies" is a perfect description of the tactics of egg corporations and their shills.
9:20- In most of the US $100,000 isn't a single family home worth of money??? That's like 1/3 or 1/5th of a house.
Most people just poop out the extra cholesterol, this been studied for a long time. There are 15-20% of the population that has gene mutation and more affected by dietary cholesterol, they should avoid eggs, but so many people has all kind of issues, like nut allergies, even fish allergy, yet nobody would say those are unhealthy. The public health recommendations should not be designed around the sickest population with very specific health issues like gene mutations or allergies.
That's why heart disease is the number one killer?
@@Spock_Rogers its more complicated, metabolic disease, blood pressure, obesity, hidden infections. The point is, eggs are extremely healthy and nutritious foods, that literally has every nutrient for a small chicken to develop. It was based on lies when they labelled it an unhealthy food.
I suppose guideline should also indicate the healthy amount. Suppose somebody avoids a lot of healthy food like green leafs I would assume in this case an egg or two is pretty healthy for them since it includes stuff they are most likely missing from their diet. Couldn't we have like a limit, like carrots healthy for up to 1kg, eggs up to 2 of them etc ?
Hi Mike, I just started a channel called Whole Foods pregnancy, Whole Foods health. I was wondering if you would ever be open to being interviewed. You are one of the influencers that open my eyes to the benefits of clean eating and especially Whole Foods plant only.
Many blessings, Scott .
Their tactics are so infuriating. We are lucky to have people like you to call bullshit. Hopefully this gets shut down just like last time. 🤞
It wont. It is a fact that eggs are healthy
Why can’t vegans eat true free range eggs ? Funny listening to vegans talking about healthy food when consuming beyond burgers , vegan cheese (7g SF/serving/coconut) vegan processed food … I don’t eat meat / dairy but I’d rather (health wise) eat lean minced meat (6g/4oz SF) than a beyond burger (5g/4oz SF).
Eggs are not healthy. Chickens suffer and die for the egg industry.
Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude-as far as is possible and practicable-all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.
- The Vegan Society, Definition of veganism
@@Spock_Rogers right, but you hear vegans talking about eating mollusks. If a vegan came a cross a freshly laid egg by a true free range hen .. like in the islands … would a vegan eat that egg? .. no cruelty, and assume no fertilized.
@@jp7357 No, those things do not appeal to this vegan. No animal products. After not eating them for so long, it's pretty disgusting to think about eating. It's probably how most people would think about eating dogs or cats.
@@Spock_Rogers I feel the same, but it seems pretty hypocritical of Mic to talk about “heathy” vegan diet when most of them are definitely anything but healthy. I’m plant based and would ever eat that vegan,processed rubbish. Mic talking about animal saturated fat as u healthy when a beyond Berger is 10x more u healthy than animal meat. Just look at the list of chemicals.
