You’re the most wonderful man/doctor in the world. 😊. You help my health so much. 😊
I shared this with my daughter. We are both cancer survivors and subject to recurrence.
Doc, you saved my life. I prefer the real you though
True
Same!

I believe that eating broccoli is an excellent idea wether you have cancer or not.
Of the few people who I knew that died of cancer, none of those people had any recommendations of what to eat and not to eat from their doctors.
I got uterine cancer 6 months ago and asked oncologist about diet. Oncologist told me to lose weight by eating less of everything and follow the government's healthy eating guidelines. Imagine my surprise while researching to find out that advice is not optimal!!! I need to eat high vegetable, no added fats, minimally processed, vegan diet with added herbs, spices. Sigh, we need better education for patients and doctors in regards to nutrition. Thankfully Dr. Greger and others like him are trying.
But unfortunately vegetables are sprayed with round up which is a carcinogen, herbicides and pesticides cause cancer.🤷♂️🤷♂️
My former family doctor shared with me that her and her husband, who was also a physician, would eat broccoli every night for dinner as a side with their meal. Unfortunately, her husband was recently diagnosed with cancer. I’m sure broccoli is beneficial, but it’s not a definite that you will never get cancer.
Your work of spreading knowledge saves and prolongs many lives. Thank you so much!
Thank you for this life saving information. Please do more videos like this.
Your personality is so adorable, that mini pause before you say something - "not so obvious". I enjoyed watching the video so much! Thank you for sharing yourself to the world! Much love from Canada.
And also..."...until NOW!"
@@ZenTeaNow Heheh so cute :P
We always have fresh broccoli soup on hand. Made creamy with a few cashews and a potatoe. Delish.
He has a great voice . His voice is so calm
Yess! It's adorable.
We love broccoli sprouts in this house and I think it's amazing that it helps with cancer in humans... and when my dog got cancer I started to feed him broccoli sprouts every single day thinking it would help.. it did not he lived for 4 weeks with lymph node cancer so sad but now I know we tried as much as we could
It may have helped or not. Maybe without it he would have had a harder passing or passed away in 2 weeks rather than 4.
Very sad.
Thanks
Today I had a cup of broccoli sprouts and broccoli soup! My mother, grandmother, and cousin all died from pancreatic cancer.
Consider getting your DNA checked. That many in one immediate family may be due to a gene passed down.
@@SisterSunshineTV my endocrinologist says pancreatic cancer isn’t hereditary. Also, mom wasn’t a blood relative to that grandmother and cousin.
@@yogawithjengentleyoga3614 they must have shared a similar eating habit or something?
@@texican5619 Wow..okay that's enough.
@@kayondothomas7343 ??? Do you know how people even get cancer? Bad eating habits, exposure to toxins and stress (main ones) over genes.
thanks for this info
So happy to be watching this after eating a plate of whole wheat pasta with a ton of broccoli and mushrooms (made a creamy sauce with cashew butter and hot water) Yay broccoli! 🥦 I did have a glass of red wine with it 😬 (nobody’s perfect!)
+.0.
@@chrishatfield8273 what does it mean? 🤯🙃
Whole wheat did not help your cause.
@@YD-uq5fiI think he said nobody's perfect what's your problem
I think the cartoon is cute! I hope all cruciferous vegetables have the same effect because I find kale smoothies and salads to the most adorable way to get them into my body.
Broccoli sprouts have more bioavailability in terms of the beneficial compounds. Kale spouts are also a good second choice though. Dr Rhonda Patrick on FoundMyFitness reviews sprouting extensively
Thanks!
Awesome video as usual
Great advice, thank you Doc!
As always, I'm loving the information; but I must say, I'm loving Dr. Gregor as a cartoon.
I still love the iloccor-B story. (And: if you have a cartoon presence, you've ARRIVED! ;D )
I wonder if any research has been done into _how_ broccoli is so effective. Could it be sulforaphane?
@A G Like what give me links
A suggestion. Instead of the cartoon of your good self, perhaps just show relative graphs, pictures or info cards etc to what you're speaking about at the time. That way we don't have to pause the video so much to study the graphics which interrupts your speech. Or just the graphic from your podcast would suffice. No need for a talking head if you can't spare the time from your busy schedule to film yourself. Just my two bob :)
Anyway, always happy to hear anything from your apparently bottomless font of knowledge! May you continue your helpful healing ways for many more decades.
Thank You 🙏🏾
Don’t like the cartoon. Would rather see the real you.
I would still really like to know if cruciferous vegetables actually work, rather than making assumptions.
What if they compared a cruciferous group with a non-cruciferous vegetable group? So they both ate extra veg, but each emphasising different types?
Look up dr Rhonda Patrick she’s very scientific and goes into massive detail.
@@texican5619 Links please
Cartoon Greger is awesome! haha
Eating broccoli while I watched this. Thanks Doc and team 💗🥦
10 months later it's still good, this time red cabbage cruciferociousness smoothie with flax and chia, carrot, ginger, and some fruit including berries. Big appreciation 💗
I have a question: from what I understand, as a post-menopausal woman, I need a good amount of (good) fat to help regulate my hormones. So is it more important to eat cruciferous vegetables and not worry about the fact I'm getting 35% of calories from fat? I'm confused. I mean, you can eat a lot of cruciferous vegetables and a lot of fat as well. It doesn't seem like Dr. Greger mentioned studies that pointed to a combination of the veg along with a low fat diet at the same time, did he?
My mother has stage 4 liver cancer. Please do more liver cancer videos!
You're lucky mine has colorectal stage 4...Liver is a very enduring organ, metastasis is where the real issue is

Yay broccoli! 🥦❤ Thank you!!
Both the good Dr and cartoon Dr are cute. But the cartoon, though ... He's adorable! 🤣
I love the cartoon you ☺️ Very cute! Great info! Thank you!
Doc do you think it’s the sulforaphane in the broccoli that helps fight cancer?
Not sure if Dr. G saw this, but I'm a future doc, nutritional biochemistry researcher and holistic health coach. Dr. G is one of my role models! I spend several hours a week digging into the research behind food as medicine, and what I've learned over the years is absolutely mind blowing. Indeed! Sulforaphane (SFN) is the all star Isothiocyanate (ITC) in Crucifers, and it exhibits several anti cancer mechanisms. For instance, it causes cancer cells to self-destruct, a process known as apoptosis. Research has shown that Sulforaphane blocks DNA methylation and controls certain processes in cell cycle progression, that would otherwise contribute to the development of cancer. In more detail: SFN inhibits carcinogenesis and metastases through various mechanisms, including the activation of tumor suppressor genes, activation of caspase-3, induction of cell cycle arrest, reduction of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) levels, and inhibition of DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) and telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) [29-32] www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5843244/.
There are other mechanisms, but these are some of the main ones. Here's the beauty of it though- there are also other amazing ITCs and other medicinal phytonutrients in Broccoli (and more in the sprouts of course), and the other cruciferous veggies (and plant foods in general), so the more variety of plant foods we eat, the better!
BTW, check out Dr. G's video on Myrosinase and Sulforaphane if you haven't already, it's fascinating and shows some strategies to activate SFN czcams.com/video/wsN8x0BWcyE/video.html
Dr. Rhonda Patrick also does a lot of research on this, and SFN is one of her favorite compounds.
All of this is just a small slice of the world of Nutritional biochemistry, Nutrigenomics and Epigenetics which are the big 3 science fields (and big fascinations of mine), that prove Food as Medicine, and the main way that we will take down Big Pharma/Medical establishment!
@@bryant475 thank you for your intelligent response! It’s a wonderful food God made indeed. Let Food Be Thy Medicine!
@@texican5619 My pleasure, and yes! God made all of these amazing plant foods for us to heal! God bless you :)
Great info, great video…not so great animation.
Thank you for your work.
If the sulforaphane was suspected to be the mechanistic ingredient, they could probably give them both broccoli, but deactivate the glucosinolates in the placebo by cooking or something.
Are broccoli sprouts better than regular broccoli? Which brand of broccoli sprouting seeds are recommended?
Sprouts have higher amounts of sulforaphane.
Don't cook with high heat. Chew them well...the bitterness is part of the medicinal value.
Does low fat include seeds and nut reduction?
I see that they mentioned green tea in the paper on what to tell women when treating breast cancer…. A tea less known internationally - but with even MORE good stuff than green tea - is Rooibos, or Red Bush, tea. So try to make the change from green to red tea if you can get hold of it. ;)
Hey cute avatar Doc! But I love to see the real you sometimes too.
Is there any contraindication for consuming cruciferous veggies for people with Hashimoto's / Thyroid Cancer?
keep an eye on your iodine because they soak it up.. i do some iodine drops but as you know be careful and hopefully you have a good doc to work with>>
I supplement Iodine. i take it every second day. So it should be no Problem.
Yes there is, but only if you are avoiding iodine altogether your body need iodine regardless of your health state of your Thyroid, try starting supplementing Iodine in very small doses. If too many side effects, stop and start B2, B3 (nutritional yeast) + selenium ca. 2 Brazil nuts a day. For about two weeks then start low and slow iodine again (algae) and try to increase. Once you get enough iodine the cruciferous veggies don’t do any harm anymore. Btw. Iodine is essential for good health.
Oh and I forgot Greger made a video a few days ago about “Black Cumin” it does help to reduce tpo antibodies (Hashimoto) if taken daily half a teaspoon with your meals, just use in your pepper mill instead of pepper.
I was crossing fingers hoping the magic food was Frosted Flakes or Choco Krispies, it's not :(
Cartoon or not, important is the information!
I prefer to see you talking as opposed to a cartoon of you 💚
mo too
Me too. Though I don't mind the animation if it's supplementing the live action video
It might be a production choice to aid in Dr. Greger's schedule. It takes more time to prepare and record a live-action take.
@@rileylass1109 does it though? I mean he's already sitting there recording audio. Just turn the camera on.
What happened to ketogenic diet which is high fat that is said to fight cancer?
Well, try to find some real scientific data (proper studies) on it, which are not industry funded. Hint, they do not exist. Whereas there are tons of studies on plant foods, which proof that it lowers overall cancer risks which are not funded by “Big Broccoli”. ;-)
There's the key word right there: it's 'said' to fight cancer. Said by whom? Strangers on Facebook can say anything; that's not science. Don't listen to anonymous strangers on the internet.
Cooked or raw broccoli?
Is eating raw broccoli sprouts just as effective as eating broccolis? And is raw better than cooked? Thank you
It's even better than broccoli! Check out the text on his website about Sulforaphane (the anti-cancerous substance, which is created in cruciferous vegetables).
I'll try linking it, hoping the system does not remove it:
nutritionfacts.org/topics/sulforaphane/
Love your content but def don't love the animated version of Dr. Greger - Hard to watch without cringing. Just my opinion.
💜
Yay broccoli 🥦
What about the benefits of a higher fat (plant sources only) vegan diet? Is low fat always better? I don’t feel good low fat...I need more.
Avocados!
I am wondering if the low fat diet would include healthy fats like nuts, seeds and avocados ?
Low fat does not meant zero fat. Healthy fats are definitely encouraged, just in small amounts.
@@suicune2001 correct about a palm full 1 oz 38 grams of nuts not more.
Just stay away from saturated fats
Thumbs up for the video, thumbs down for the animation.
why the cartoon???
Thanks for sharing the info!!!! 👍
I am guessing that the hope was that it would attract more attention for the videos.
probably to spice things up, i like it
@@WanderingSword Me too.

These cruciferous vegetables work too well.. it's caused the Doc to go 2D !
💖💖
lip sync messing with my mind here
Not sure of this research and have a hard tie with this guy's voice.
I am starting to use soy as my main source of protein, not too mention everything else.
I drink a liter a day
@@dereksevcik6595 I eat black soy beans, often use tofu, and often drink soy milk, although there is a new almond/cashew one now equally high in protein.
@@peterkuskis3825 ya i just get mine at costco. great source of protein!
The animation does not spark joy. I prefer the real doc!
Great info but the cartoon Dr. Michael avatar has to go. It's not creepy enough to have reached the "uncanny valley," but it is disturbingly on its way there.
No offense but I am digging the cartoon (and the great info!)
When I hear broccoli, I automatically think estrogen. Why? Because cruciferous vegetables in general lowers estrogen and excess estrogen causes cancer growth. There you go....
I read that it has those phytoestrogen much like soy. I won’t stop eating cruciferous vegetables though. Even though I have beginnings stages of estrogen related breast cancer. Been vegan for 10 yrs and rather healthy. My healthiest and strongest this year! But now I’m battling this crap. Sigh
I so wish that you'd said cabbage
Cabbage has the same thing as broccoli
"oh yeah, let me reduce my fat intake from 28.5% to... 28.9%!! What a wonderful reduction, i'm feeling much better"
Oh! Cute cartoon!
Imma eat a lot more raw broccoli😊
I'll tick most of you off, I LIKE the animated doc. Although with such a somber and serious subject, it may be ill placed.
Doesn't tick me off....it's YOUR choice......my feeling is, the cartoon character cheapens such important information.
@@carmenmarcinkiewicz7149 In this case, it's really the seriousness of the subject, cancer mortality.
I take a two capsules of concentrated sulforaphane every day. I recommend it
I eat whole broccoli every day. I make sure to eat some raw too for the enzymes. Dr. Rhonda Patrick has some interesting things to say about broccoli sprouts and aging.
@@someguy2135 Do you prepare the Sprouts by freezing or heating like Dr. Patrick said ?
@@Jens-db1hr So far, I haven't tried broccoli sprouts. I just eat a lot of broccoli. Interesting subject though. What brand of supplements are you using? Maybe I will buy some on line.
@@Jens-db1hr I used to make sprouts and I tried both methods. Judging based on their "spiciness", mildly heated is the best
@@someguy2135 Grown broccoli have a very low concentration of sulforaphane though.
I eat broccoli along with my meat.
I like the cartoon :o
Why would doctors recommend eating more broccoli when it will mean less business for them?
A serving of broccoli a day keeps the doctor away!
That's a very American question 😩
I prefer the real Dr. Greger. Thanks for this info.
Why is he a cartoon?
I think it‘s time for Nutritionfacts to show us more faces than Greger alone. Nutritionfacts should be a team of frontmen and frontwomen and become a self-sustaining organization like any other big NGO.
Omg, what’s going on.
👍 #BoycottMeat and all other animal products of cruelty and exploitation in any way possible!
Reducing saturated fat is wrong advice.
Doc you need a tik tok account
Great content. Still absolutely awful on the animated Dr G. Please. You are detracting from how sincere he appears. Please stop.
No cartoon please ... you don't want people confuse your channel with "what i'v learned" or 'in a nutshell" or "kurgresaght" ... (which are industries propaganda)
i cant even sleep properly @15% fat 😂
probably starvation bonus they would get at that range 🧐
Low-fat diets are just stupid! Low carbs will save many people! It's all about the kind of fat you consume! This guy is handpicking studies that he likes! Do not trust him on everything he says, although he does sometimes have some good advice! To me, he looks like a pile of bones with no muscles ready to fall apart at any moment!!
Low carb trend aye 🙄..
Ask athlean x about low carb diets and he will likely disagree. Oh and he’s not skin and bones!
I love broccoli but my gut doesn’t, not good for IBS 😔😟😰😨🩷
