Great show.
I am 67,a South Indian lady, and a life long egg vegetarian.
In 2021, I discovered Doctor John McDougall and was amazed that he promoted starch and potatoes. Here I was eating white rice ( as most South Indians and South Asians do) and feeling guilty about it as everyone was saying rice causes diabetes. Soon I understood that I was following the McDougall diet except for the egg a day and dairy I was consuming. And of course the extra oil we Indians use in our cooking.
Very soon I threw away the evil foods. How good I feel physically!
I recently won the Bronze in the world TCS 10 k race.wirh a timing of 1 hour 9 mins. I do the 100 meters in 18 seconds
I also coach tennis and teach piano on weekends.
My 5 young grandkids are impressed.
The only supplement I take is B12
Your show, Doc McDougall's show and a few other wise people are slowly making people sit up and realize that meat, eggs,fish, dairy and oils are not good for our arteries and bodies.
And Dr McDougall slipped in his bathroom and broke his femur (largest bone in his leg). His bones are made of Styrofoam from eating rice and potatoes. Eat a Mediterranean Diet including eggs.
Whatever works for you.
Rubbish
Thank you for reviewing my case! That is so cool! I'm still vegan and I share it with many others. I\m still feeling great and have a lot of energy on an Organic Veg diet. Thank you so much!
I'm am plant based and have been for years, but I just looked up protein for egg and potato and 100g of egg has 13g of protein.100g of potato has1.9g. So by my calcs, pound for pound, an egg has about 6x more protein. Any takers? A better example would be to compare the egg to 100g of kidney beans which contain 25g (9g when cooked, so 1 can has ~25g) of protein.
Yes, pound for pound egg has more protein. But comparing a large potato with a large egg begins to favour the potato.
@@AtheistEve 70 calories of egg is 6 grams complete protein and 70 calories of potato is 1.6 grams of not complete protein.
@@Jeffs60 Bearing in mind that we get plenty of protein in plants generally anyway. And, even if someone is trying to gain or retain muscle mass, this can be done on a vegan diet. It’s important for vegans to know that they are getting their necessary nutrients. This channel has generally good advice for vegans and health issues.
@@AtheistEve Begins yeah, but doesn't overtake. Anti-vegan influencers jump on these mistakes and use it to cast doubt into the plebs mind. For a normal, say 50g egg to be equal in protein to a potato, the potato would have to weigh 300+g and you just don't buy them in the shops or anywhere for that matter. Think of buying a kilo (2.2 lbs) of potatoes and only getting 3 potatoes. You just don't see that. Sorry but having a science background makes me real down with the weights and measures.
@@AtheistEve It can't be done on a vegan diet unless you can prove it.
For those who would like to try tofu scrambles and who like that "egg-y" taste of real eggs, you can buy something called black salt or kala namak that has a higher sulfur content than regular salt. And that gives food like tofu the taste of eggs. Kala namak is used extensively in South Asian cuisines of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal as a condiment or added to chaats, chutneys, salads, fruit, raitas and many other savory snacks.
Soy is poison to the human body.
I recently made a great and super easy potato dish. Steamed/boiled some shredded cabbage (the bpreshredded bag stuff for ease), added dehydrated potatoes flakes and some soy milk and/or water, then seasoned with onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper (I added a small amount of nutritional yeast, but not sure if that small amout actually changed the flavor any). Hope someone else likes this. I left out the salt. But, if you eat salt, you may want to add some of that to taste.
sound delicious and extremely healthy! God bless!
It's always a pleasure listening to Dr. Neal Bernard. I learned about the disadvantages of eating eggs and other animal products and graduated to a plant-based diet in 2006. Dr. Barnard has been one of my teachers on my vegan journey. Thanks for always sharing valuable information with the public. 🌱💚
I eat potatoes every day, they are a wonder food. I have no problems with insulin. Just ordered your new book, so excited!!
Black salt makes the tofu scramble really have that eggy taste
I tried chickpea, but it wasn't a good scramble. It's pumpkin seeds that are.
I love Dr. Barnard is the best. I love that he is so knowledgeable and level headed. He is great about showing how to be healthy without being a fanatic. He is good about not completely demonizing things.
He’s a vegan charlatan
Chucks is always energetic and Dr. Neal amazing
Excellent.. preordered Dr Barnard's new book.. I keep trying this diet but its a struggle as none of my friends or family eat this way.. I am not giving up!
Lotsof support from online communities. Hang in there. Try not to preach, even thoug you feel awesome and want to share the good news. Your loved ones will either just think you’re kinda weird or a “freak” of nature or be curious.
Yes it is tough, when your friends are all meat eaters .We just went to a Christmas party and our kind host made us a pasta salad which consisted of spiral pasta, sweet peppers and red onion...thank goodness we brought a big green salad to share and a vegan pie made with tofu custard...lol
Same here 😞
What an interesting conversation, Dr. Barnard is amazing!
Applaud Dr Barnard's position on protecting animal rights. Thank you! God bless!
Once again a highly interesting video! I have just preordered the new book and I am really looking forward to it. 😍
I would love to see the study about plants having all the amino acids. Super interesting!
put some in hronometr, they all have it, the procentage and proportions are different
Please keep in mind, only plants are capable of taking atmospheric nitrogen and converting essential amino acids into protein.
Hence, only plants make protein. All animals, including humans, are receiving protein that ultimately originated from plants.
No study required. It is just pure data. Here is a chart with all of the amino acids (the building blocks of protein). When a variety of plant foods are consumed, one gets all the amino acids. This chart courtesy of Christopher Gardener, PdD of Stanford University but there are others.
Very insightful!
Who would eat 12 eggs a day? That's crazy! I am surprised he lived!
My hens are free range on 20 acres; and I regularly consume a dozen egg a day. 67 years old and run 2 miles in less than 15 mins, 40 pull ups, 100 sit ups, 80 push ups; that's the maximum score for the Army fitness test for an 18 years old. No junk foods, no added sugar, no seed oil.
I used to eat 4 in one meal, so someone who is running around would easily eat 12.
do you eat the yolk?@@tdgdbs1
I am amazed Dr Barnard finally admitted LDL carries cholesterol (among other things) and is not cholesterol. Before he finished the sentence though he started calling LDL cholesterol again. Bad habits are hard to break.
Thank you for providing us with the facts and the science Dr. Neal Bernard. I’ve asked my parents to limit or remove eggs from their diet but they continue to consume them 😢
I will continue to shower them with videos like these in hope that one day they will choose healthier alternatives 🙏🏻
chucks shirt and tie colors combo👍😇thank you both for the great information and may you both have a wonderful Christmas and a blessed new year 🙏🙏 I can't have nightshade vegetables because of my rheumatoid arthritis😱😱
and the egg puns
Confused! Need to see this. I like eggs. Hi Chuck and Dr. Barnard! 😊
On a tofu scramble, instead of using soy sauce, sprinkle a little “black salt” on top after you have put the scramble onto your plate. The black salt tastes exactly like egg and adds a little saltiness as well.
Chuck, I really appreciated those opening puns 😂
seriously - we're all cracking up before the show begins!
I admire all the episodes you show and teach us. I heard the potato has more protein than egg. I wonder if it is based on weight, calories or volume? When i search in he internet, I find a boiled potato (180gr)has 3 gr of protein while an egg boiled has 6 grams of protein. What is correct?
good question!
Dr Bernard. Please do a review on Oatmeal. A Dr eric berg is saying not to eat it. Saying not heart healthy. I eat oats daily. Thanks
Berg is a Chiropractor. He may know about the back.
Debbie, as another commenter cited, Dr Eric Berg is a Chiropractor. I have listened to Dr Berg a few times and quickly vetted him out to a wanna-be scam artist nutritionist. I don’t believe his advice shows a knowledge base of sound medical facts or base. Any human who says not to eat oats is not giving scientific-backed advice. Oats are a solvable fiber that are a delicious and healthy food. Gently kick Dr Berg’s YT and IG channels to the curb, regardless of how many viewers he has, and follow Dr Bernard and others who are classically trained and who speak speak truth. You’re welcome. 😊
Dr. Berg isn't a physician. He also believes carnivore diet is healthy. I am telling you crazy carnivore diet made me very sick. Thank God! Stopped the diet before I ended up in the hospital.
Moderation is the key
Thanks
Love this discussion! ❤
I have been wanting to be plant based but my nutritionist said I need to get my protein from animals and not plants and the protein is not the same. From this discussion it sounds like I can continue to get my protein from my plant based diet.
Yes plants ARE adequate.. & watch videos by Dr McDougall & @Peter Rogers MD too.
@@Amanda_downunder
Thank you!
Tgank you !
There was a commercial for eggs and it had a jingle, ' The incredible edible egg. My nom made eggs only once a week on Sudays. An educated consumer is the best customer. Thanks for the video.
I did not know potatoes were such an awesome protein source!! Thank you!
100g Egg
- calories: 143
- protein: 13g
100g potato
- calories: 75
- protein: 2.2g
Or if you do it by calories...
Egg (100cal)
- protein: 9.1g
Potato (100cal)
- protein: 2.9g
What am I missing here such that Dr. Barnard is saying potatoes have more protein than eggs....?
He said a large potato has more protein than a large egg. If you weigh a large potato you will see it is probably at least 5 times heavier than an egg. A large egg has about 6 g of protein so a large potato would have more protein - just do the maths.
@@MsTattygrass well by that logic... There's more protein in a large watermelon than a large steak.
Watermelon has more protein than steak!
@@McCaffreyPickleball I don’t know the protein content of watermelons just that they contain a lot of water. Most people don’t realise how much protein is contained in plant food and think they need animal products to get enough protein. However many people eat far too much protein which puts greater strain on the kidneys.
@@MsTattygrassit's fine to say 'you can get protein from plants'
But he made it sounds like there's more protein in potatoes than eggs. There's only more protein if you eat way more potato than egg.
My point was... You could do the same thing with watermelon. "there's more protein in watermelon than egg"
It's true but you have to eat way more watermelon to get more protein so it would be dishonest to imply watermelon has more protein than eggs.
Watermelon (large)
- calories: 1360
- protein: 26g
@@McCaffreyPickleball You have to consider what is a normal serving. A large jacket potato with a side salad will have more protein than say a fried egg sarnie - both of which could be considered a lunchtime meal. If you are comparing weight for weight then of course an egg has more protein than a potato.
I don't purchase eggs due to concern for animals, but it is very unlikely that the ancestors from which we evolved would pass up a nest of eggs they might find in the forest. However, that would probably be only an occasional treat.
And it would keep them bound up for ages. Maybe not so much of a treat.
No ancestor in North America were consuming period eggs of chickens.
GMO chickens are red jungle fowls native to East Asia.
@@AtheistEve 🤣🤣🤣
and they wouldn't live that long either. Anything else?
I watch several homesteaders on CZcams mainly for their gardening tips. Since I’m wfpb I don’t use their recipes but I’m amazed at the amount of eggs and especially butter that they use. I just watched one guy rendering fat for cooking. He actually said animal fat is so much healthier for you than seed oils. I had to turn it off, just could not watch anymore
I wonder how long that'll last. The attrition rate on homesteaders is massive.
So many have wrong ideas about eggs out there. Eat 100% whole plants is the way to health. God bless!

A list of anecdotes is not helpful. Since genetics plays one of the biggest roles in life expectancy, it may “overrule” bad diets in many of these instances.
@@MichaelHplus They are not really anecdotes because they copied what their family members did as opposed to reading blue zones books which did not exist and there are some centenarian medical professionals listed who had access to the best medical advice to make dietary choices from and your idea of bad diets, well read about them as none of them ate any junk food or fast food or processed foods or were overweight so no you are wrong about bad diets.
Wow, that's amazing work. Where did you get your data? What it looks like, is most of these people are eating real food, not processed junk food.
@@beepbeepnj2658 Look up the definition of anecdote and get back to me 👍
@@MichaelHplus I already explained they are not anecdotes. Instead of giving me a homework why don't you tell me in science why you claim these people ate a bad diet, and as far as the centenarian medical people like Dr. Denmark who said the best protein is from eggs, lean meat and black eyed peas, do you think she has been fooling herself and the 250,000 face to face patients she treated for over a century was wrong? She has 15 awards and honors how many do you have? She helped invent the pertussis vaccine which helped save millions of lives. What have you accomplished for humanity and are you in the Guinness book like she is?
Thanks to you guys I’m almost there. No meat, cheese or dairy. I have to admit I still like a poached or soft boiled egg once in a while over some brown rice and veggies. I’ve been able to give up cheese and dairy, but the egg is really hard.
ALWAYS RUN AWAY FROM DOGMATICS! Btw, new research shows correlation between higher cholesterol in the old age and better health/lower mortality ;). Choose your wisdom.
correlation doesn't equal causation. If you're going to spread health info - better come with some decent facts or else move along!
I’ve been Vegan for 4 years now and really love listening to chuck and guests like Dr Barnard . I do get confused and a little annoyed by misinformation especially with macros like protein . Potatoes do not have more protein than eggs , I don’t eat eggs but I don’t think incorrect information should be given it is hard enough to keep on top of all the fitness people, influencers and doctors on CZcams as it is. I really enjoy your show but please please please let’s keep to facts . Sorry had to be said
you have to factor in bioavailability - potatoes I believe have a higher one. It's very marginal - but we can look at that too. He didn't give incorrect info - yes eggs have a lot of protein and potatoes don't. You don't need lots of protein for large muscles - it's water, fat, etc. that factor in too.
Will Dr Barnards new book be released as an electronic book please
I always wish
Just egg is great substitute in dessert making (vegan cream pies etc)
I wish, but it's too savory. It's neat egg that people use for baking.
@@extropiantranshuman not my coconut cream or chocolate cream pies it works great. To each it’s own
21:11 what about quail eggs? How do they compare to chicken eggs nutritionally
Replacing eggs with a GMO canola and soy product?
The period of birds came from GMO chicken that was funneled with GMO crops.
Explain the effects of the Carnivore Diet.
2 potato egg and cheese tacos. 4 salsas. With an apple and bowl of berries.
what's crazy is that not only does potato have more protein than egg - but I believe I saw a chart showing it has a higher bioavailability too. Potato protein has a high bioavailability
I would like to get your new book. How can I get it Dr. thank you.
Potato vs egg. What’s the amino acid profile? In terms of getting enough methionine & other essentials. Or are you saying the potato overall has more protein AND combine with/other veggies higher in the amino acids that potatoes are low ?
Why are you concerned about methionine? That is the amino acid that is associated with shortened life spans of mice.
Pastured eggs (the birds live outside and eat bugs and grubs).
Haven't eaten an egg or some substitute for 14 years and never have misst it for a second.
All I learned is that most eggs in recipes are just some unnecessary extra ingredient. Well, except for things as scrambled eggs, fried egg, etc...
I’d love to attend the powerful revolution event in Washington DC. I’m having trouble finding information about it online. Any guidance you can offer here? Thanks!
All plants may have all the amino acids but what he neglected to mention was that they have them in varying amounts. Some much lower than others!
Fish, Egg, Milk is the last few blocks that people find it hard to get rid of. This "lacking" mentality is behind all these protein and nutrition myths. We do not lack anything physically. What we lack is compassion, truth, and health, which is within not without. God bless!
I am celiac and have always had digestive issues. Since I’ve gone gluten free, it’s better but I’m trying to do more plant based. My issue is eating beans. I love them but I get so bloated and gassy from them…even hummus. What should I do?
Dr Gundry. Pressure cook in sealed can as Eden brand does ($3 can)
Health stores sell enzyme for that
How do you get on with soy tofu and Burmese (chickpea) tofu?
You could also try cooking your beans with kombu, a type of seaweed. Many people find that reduces gassiness.
List to Dr Will B videos.. the guthealth MD .. start with small portions, build up slowly.. introduce more diversity of plants.
I can't really eat beans because soy (in an allergenic way, but I've never been tested to show it) makes me incredibly ill, so all beans do. I just don't even like the taste of beans. Well you can go to the store and find green chickpeas and eat those instead of the can. Canned foods are going to hurt one's stomach with the amount of metals in it.
I was a vegetarian diet eating eggs (no cheese or butter) and my LDL cholesterol was high as hell. So I’m cutting out eggs and cutting down on nuts and olive oil and avocados and trying to see if that’ll help
I love such testimony! God bless!
Try not to exclude nuts & seeds forever, they have lots of nutrients & benefits as Dr Joel Fuhrman discusses.
I wished Dr. Bernard would have addressed the claims of dieticians and/or CZcamsrs who claim that cholesterol ingested via food sources (e.g. eggs) either don't or minimally impact blood serum cholesterol levels?
And always the question not asked was else was he eating? Besides the eggs. A fair amount of red meat? Sausage and bacon maybe? I average 2 eggs a day, don’t eat red meat, just a bit of fish or chicken now and then mostly plants. I feel good am 69 and have lots of energy.
I love you guys! But..............I just looked up the protein in eggs and in potatoes. One large egg has 6 grams of protein and a large potato has 3 grams of protein. Can you please help me with this confusion???
According to chronometer and my fitnesspal.
1 large egg has 6 grams protein.
1 large russet potato has 7 grams
According to information that I received from another medical chanel the cholesterol from the egg it is not getting absorbed. What is happening with that cholesterol then? Gets peeing out? What organs are effecting?
The longer the food stays in your stomach, the longer your insulin is secreted which is the main cause of diabetes. A sugar spike isn't a real damage, it is the constant repeated secretion of insulin from meat eating that creates diabetes.
Yes and earth is flat
the longer it stays in the body the more the body has to work to process it taxing the whole system. When I eat just fresh juicy fruits like grapes and oranges for a few days body feels light and easy but if its cheeseburgers and fries and pizzas for a few days body becomes heavy tired lethargic
12 eggs a day is such an extreme example.
There is no data that points to the bad LDL Cholesterol being increased in eating eggs but it does increase your good Cholesterol HDL, also when you consume cholesterol from food your liver just produces less. There are many health benefits of eating around 2- 4 eggs per day
Why do so many doctors say just the opposite? Its frustrating and infuriating. We never know what to do! Dr robert Lustig and dr Axe also dr Berg say eat plenty of eggs. I remain confused! How do we know the truth?
Some people that have promoted something that's incorrect most of their professional lives are willing to do & say anything that proves they were not wrong even when they are.
Check out Dr. Ken Berry, Anthony Chaffee MD, Dr Shawn Baker also.
Well wishes
Are all types of saturated fat bad or is palmitic (from red meat?) the main culprit?
What the maximum suggested percent from saturated fats in one's diet?
Listen to @Peter Rogers MD & Dr Esselstyn
Pre-ordered! Thank you for all this info on eggs. I have been a Gluten free/dairy free ovo-vegetarian for many years. You have given me the info I needed to go fully plant based Whole Foods.
Please do your own research, not everything you hear is correct.
I always do my own research. I was looking at this from the cholesterol side. I always have eaten eggs for their protein and B vitamins. After researching the cholesterol aspect, I will continue to eat eggs. The dietary cholesterol in eggs is not a problem for me. I have consistantly had great cholesterol blood work. @SteveandNina thank you for your concern.
Never heard about Potato Famine, right? 😂
I was not aware that potatoes have more protein than eggs? What is the source of this information?
They didn't say that.
@@donwinston 9.24 in the video
I am a whole food plant based oil free vegan and I am happy as a clam hearing that. But I just want to know the source?
. @@keithlb1 me too. When I looked up the protein amounts in eggs and potatoes, I couldn't confirm Dr. Barnard's claim that potatoes have more protein than eggs :(. It appears on the surface that eggs are higher in protein. I hope we can get the confusion cleared up. Me, I LOVE potatoes and eat a ton of them. I also don't worry about how much I get as I eat at least 30-40 plants per week.
According to chronometer and my fitnesspal.
1 large egg has 6 grams protein.
1 large russet potato has 7 grams
Gram for Gram is different. This was a relative comparison, not direct weight to protein comparison
Yay for potatoes!❤😊
Just eggs contains expressed-pressed canola oil, how is this approved on WFPB diet?
Dr. Fred Kummerow Ph.D in food chemistry who lived to age 102 got the first egg beaters that came out marketed as heart healthy since they had no cholesterol and he fed them to rats and within 2 weeks they all died because there was no Vitamin B5 and other nutrients in egg beaters fake foods. Later egg beaters found out how destructive their food was and added synthetic vitamins and nutrients and now just eggs, well history repeats itself.
I just looked up potatoes vs eggs in protein the egg has almost double protein. Small potatoes=3 gr. Protein egg approx. 6 -7 grams which potato has more protein than an egg? Sweet potato has only approx. 2 grams protein. Thank you
I still miss egg sometimes - like the crackle of a sunny side up, but I guess that's what rice paper's for. No one talks about this, but if I didn't brush my teeth in the morning and ate egg - my gums would start bleeding. Actually they might've bled even if I did brush my teeth and eat eggs, but if I eat carrots or greens - no problem like this! These animal products, especially dairy - put so many germs and proteins in your mouth to get cavities and all sorts of diseases (well gluten too). Clean foods like carrots and celery scrub your teeth clean. Bacteria feeds on fat, and people just don't about that - because a high amount of fat tends to be antimicrobial, but eggs are well documented to be carriers of diseases like salmonella!
Ok, I going to eat four eggs and bacon, as usual, oatmeal is for feeding pigs.
My cholesterol was high and my doc was going to put me in a statin, oatmeal and cereal was my breakfast. My neighbor had chickens and started bringing me eggs, 6 months of eggs, no oatmeal, I never took the stations
Stations.... Cholesterol dropped to normal levels....swapped eggs for oatmeal was only change
Hey Dr Barnard, You are wrong to say that a medium Potato has the same amount of Protein as a medium sized egg. It's 3g(Potato) to 6g(Egg). If you're wrong about this, then how can I trust the rest of your information in this video?
Can you link me your source? I think the devil might be in the details. Comparing a medium or large egg to a medium or large potato is not comparing gram for gram.
@@AtheistEve That's how Dr Barnard compared it, a medium size Potato to a Medium size Egg. All you have to do is Google the Protein content of a Medium (or Large) size Potato to a Medium (or Large) size Egg and you will find several sources.
@@marknesser9602 when I checked on Foodstruct, they compare 300g of each ingredient. In that case 300g of egg has more protein. But, I could imagine a large potato and large egg would have more comparable amounts of protein. I think it makes more sense to compare by grams rather than just eyeballing it. How large is a large potato?
@@AtheistEve Yes, you're probably right about the Large Potato against an egg. I was just going by what Dr Barnard said and when I googled what he said, everything I found said that it wasn't true.
According to chronometer and my fitnesspal.
1 large egg has 6 grams protein.
1 large russet potato has 7 grams
Please, where did you take your data about proteins in eggs versus potato? I see that eggs have about 6 times proteins than potato, for 100 grams. I love your podcast! Thank you!
He didn’t say by weight or volume, he said per entire potato vs. per egg.
you are right, a big potato has a weight of 300 grams, so, it is right. Thank you!@@broddr
your problem with that? Where I live - the potatoes are enormous - like a foot long, but a russet isn't that big in comparison to the massive purple potatoes. Those are hard to down in one sitting, but we're not talking that right now. People easily eat a baked potato, just like how it takes a while to eat 1 large egg. 1 large potato is 8g of protein, 1 large egg is 6g.@@sylviecaron7714 It doesn't take him wasting our time with url links when it's easy to google
If i stay on the wfpb diet for 6 or 7 months then fall off the wagon for two days then go back on wfpb for 5 months and then do it again then back on wfpb will it mess up my arteries I’m doing I’m doing wfpb for my heart and I’ve lost 47 lbs
If you’re on a diet for your health, that diet is for life. Otherwise you end up yo-yo dieting.
I just Googled egg vs potato for protein and it's not what you're saying. No wonder I've had weight problems all my life, who can we believe?
400 heartbeats a minute? Why didn't Doc address this obvious exaggeration?
Do you have the source showing the amount of protein in a potato please? I'm a vegan struggling to get protein.
Go watch Simnett Nutrition. He makes simple meals that are full of protein, and he has muscles galore!
nuts and seeds have more protein than you could ever need unless you're some competition bodybuilder
they are also high in calories@@starc.
@@sunmoon-84 not enough to become overweight even on sedetary lifestyle. You would have to eat a lot of other fatty high calorie foods
20gms of protein in 500gms of nuts, 2 500 calories. This is not an effective way to get 20gms of protein@@starc.
So if I just eat 2 eggs a day and not 12, and just seafood for meat, will eggs be bad for me? No heart issues, a1c is 5.1, and I'm 66 years old. I also can't eat gluten and dairy, so I like my eggs. And eggs don't bloat me like potatoes.
doing the same thing everyday to me sounds like a bad idea for example i like to take breaks with eggs eating for few days then rest of week off. I only eat them during cold half of year for vitamin D they dont seem worth it for nutritional value when plenty of other healthier options exist it doesnt have to be potatoes a variety of fresh fruit veg nuts and seeds has everything apart from vitamin D
Pls eggs have omega3 does potato has
PLEASE do a show on Veganuary!!!!!!!!🍎🍏🍇🍓🥬🥦🍒❤
Try eating 12 potatoes only for years vs 1-2 eggs a day and see what happens to your body Dr. B???
I will take what Bikman has so say. Egg: perfect nutrition
Potatoes definitely doesn't have more protein than eggs.
☸️🕉️ How can I effectively pose a question to Dr. Neil Barnard?☯️💟🧡
I ask myself that all day. You might want to write all of your questions down on your computer or phone and then keep it with you so that you'd go in person to see him to ask him questions. If you can't do that - you'd just google it yourself.
Agree Doc. Its what u add to stuff like potatoes thats the problem!
Dave paumbo ate whole 50 eggs a day for 5 years and then for 5 years ate about a dozen eggs. In his mod 40s he went and got his arteries checked and the doctor told him he had the clearest arteries he had ever seen for a man his age. A other guy ate 40 whole eggs a day and his cholesterol went down and he lost weight. Also people were accusing him on being on steroids. Look up the interview if you don't believe me, Vince gironda 40meggs a day interview,. I eat plenty of eggs everyday and age 50 I do have clogged arteries but I also eat sweets and other crap plus I have addiction issues and stresss. When you eat a lot of whole foods with cholesterol the body makes less cholesterol so it evens out. I,think a whole food diet with variety is the key.a bit of everything is good and your caloric intake needs to be stable for your lifestyle.
vitamin D is the only reason some have to eat eggs for me the only other option is enriched mushrooms
Is the protein in potatoes as absorbable by the body as the protein in eggs?
The Digestible Indispensable Amino Acid Score (DIAAS) of potatoes are 100 compared to a DIAAS of 101 for eggs:
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7590266/
The researchers work for Avebe, but there are plenty of more studies. It's typically been found that a vegan athlete might need 10% to 15% more protein than an omnivore. So don't believe people like Shawn Baker who claim that vegans need 50% more protein.
It's not even that precisely agreed upon how much protein is required to maintain or build muscle mass. Many studies show it's between 1.2 g/kg to 1.6 g/kg bodyweight. People in the bodybuilding community like to claim it's 2.2 g/kg, but that might just be because it's the nice easy number of 1 g/lb bodyweight. On the other end Michael Greger believes muscle can be maintained or built with only 0.8 g/kg and that the main factor is resistant training in old age when muscle is easily loss. It's a 33% difference between 1.2 and 1.6 g/kg, so this is a much greater margin than the excess protein requirements of a vegan.
Here's a study on athletes: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6950041/
We make such a fuss about protein. There’s plenty of protein in plants.
no.
irrc plant proteins are easier absorbed since they come packaged as our bodies would need them but animal proteins require extra work to be separated but i could be wrong so verify it
An egg has 6 g of protein. A potato only has 3. What's he talking about
More protein in potato than an egg? Then why eat egg? In Nigeria potato is available all year round, cheaper than egg and more healthy, is there any need to go for eggs? I think not.
Grass fed beef eggs bacon and fruit honey is all i eat. No oils or vegetables or seeds that are non essential and overtime poison you.
It is how you cook eggs that is the baddie. If you boil or poach them you do not destroy the lethithin they contain which counteracts the cholesterol. Another thing about eggs is the choline they contain which our brains need big time. A third point is they are so good for eye health also. I eat one or two eggs every day my blood pressure, heart rate and cholesterol are all fine.
The egg white is a regular potato, and the egg yolk is a sweet potato. Imagine if someone created a deviled egg from potato as the base and sweet potato as the yolk?
eggs scramble twice a week eat berries an fruits green veggies fish
Our body needed cholesterol for vitamin d for sex health for cortisol for everything
carnivore and eggs are the only way to go, i know it first hand ! no more pain !
So, your example is a guy that ate 12 eggs per day? That's pretty extreme. Why dont you guys mention pesticides used on vegetables? Cooking with non stick pans is also questionable. Vegetables are great if you like bloating, farting, and constant hunger. If veggies work for you guys, more power to you.
Lifelong accumulation of pesticides and forever chemicals in animal flesh and products is exponentially higher.
The gas etc can't be blamed on plants.. blame it on gut issues or unbalanced microbiome or nutrition deficiency
‼️One Large egg (50gr) has 6.3 gr I think that there is a confusing about protein. 100 gr potato has only 1.9 gr protein‼️
With a pulse of 400, you don't wake up in the morning. You're dead then. A pulse of 200 or more usually accounts to ventricular fibrillation or flutter. The heart no longer performs any pumping action at this point. This is an emergency indication that requires the immediate use of a defibrillator. I wish that this claim of a 400 pulse had not been uncritically included in the podcast.
