★ 6 Week Whole Food Plant Based Challenge (Eating Food as Medicine for a Life Changing Diet)

[@valoriegriego5212]

I was diagnosed with diabetes in 2019. Through prayer God led me to a plant based diet. Within 8 months I had loss over 30 pounds and my med was cut in half. At 12 months my tests results showed I'm no longer diabetic.💃 I was taken off medication! Sweet Lord!🙂

So the fruit sugars were not a problem for you? I'm hovering in pre-diabetic land and I really, really want to avoid full blown diabetes. I've moved toward a more plant-based diet recently and feel like it might be a good path, but anytime I pop a piece of pineapple or crunch into an apple I worry that I'm shooting myself in the foot...

[@valoriegriego5212]

@@angelafrench1226 Go on KZbin and watch Dr. Michael Greger's videos...that's where the Lord led me to start my journey to reverse the diabetes. I went from diabetic to prediabetic and then normal range. I did go with the no oils, dairy, etc strict plant base at first. However my blood sugar never spiked when I are fruit so I kept it in my diet...also I did no sugar, sugar...just agave nectar. I can't do stevia and honey or I would them. My plant base includes small amounts of meat...usually not beef. I aim at two meat free meals a day and my meal with meat is usually way smaller than a deck of cards.🙂 Angela, I wish you great health!🙂

[@yaboiswig]

I haven't had issue with diabetes, but grew up with heavy sugar consumption. I tried replacing most of my sugar consumption with whole medjool dates which never gave me negative feelings sugary things would, despite the high sugar content in dates. They helped me greatly with dealing with craving/changing to plant based foods and now have a 2Lb tub of date seeds from it lol. I dont eat them anywhere near as often now, but they really helped with a transition from a soon-to-be-diabetic diet to purely eating plants.

[@turdturret39]

@@angelafrench1226 You definitely want to start making oatmeal in the morning. Buy a big organic bag for the best value. They're known for regulating blood sugar. Also, eat more barley and avoid too much white rice, bread and processed sugary foods (obviously). I hope that helps but dr.

Colin Campbell, Dr. Dean Ornish, and Dr. John McDougall, we’ve got hard science backing the fact that majority of western diseases can be prevented and even reversed with Whole Food Plant Based nutrition. I won’t recommend a book, because I think many people don’t want to make time to read these days, but “Eating You Alive”. Is a free documentary on Tubi, that will get you up to date with the science.

I enjoyed this video so much! I was crying along with you at the beginning when things were going so badly, and I'm so happy for you that you're feeling so much better! I'm a long time plant based eater myself, but really cutting out all the unneccessary stuff (alcohol, sugar, breads, etc.) helped me so much too. Through doing that I was able to recover from chronic fatigue that had me almost bed ridden. I'm now doing alternate day fasting which is giving me so much energy and has been the thing that's finally helped my insomnia. Anyway thanks so much for sharing this video. You look amazing!

[@Godisgood173]

I found this so interesting as I have chronic pain from arthritis and fibromyalgia, insomnia , depression, neck/shoulder pain, lower back pain, brain fatigue etc, so this is a big motivational message for me, I’m going to give it a go!

[@DNA350ppm]

If you are on painkillers and anti-depressants and things, I want you to read what I wrote today in another comment. You have so much pain, but still your body doesn't get a chance to heal by help of its own system. Some of your pain could/might be from side-effects from the medicines. Consider abstinence between pills! Read and inform yourself. There probably is tissue-damage behind part of your pain, and part of the pain can be from your nerves and brain. Bone is renewed more slowly than softer body-parts. The cells of the whole body, teeth and all, are replaced within 7 years. Let that give you hope. Eat healthy plant-based whole food so there are building elements to use. Exercise, but very, very moderately, stretch and relax, tighten and relax, softly, very moderately to help with fibromyalgia and insomnia. Some programs for beginners are too heavy for you, so listen to your body. When your inner wisdom whispers kind suggestions to you, try them ... give yourself and your body lots of time to heal. I send you heaps cheering and support from, it is from somebody who has struggled, too, and is struggling with almost the same things - I don't have depression (anymore, it was very long ago) and not arthritis, but high blood pressure and tendonitis and what not (can't even take a walk right now), hernia and osteoprosis, but am determined to get into better shape. I have stressed too much, and been careless against better knowledge, but enough is enough, and from now on I am my own measure, and others may think whatever they want about my limits. I will stubbornly listen to my body and soul, for not even those who wish me the best, know how sensitively I function. We are not all the same. It's OK.

@Anne Suffolk, I also have fibromyalgia with a lot of the symptoms you mention. I've been eating plant-based for about 6 years. It's a gamechanger for me. I will not say I'm cured, but I'm so much better now than I was 6 years ago. For me it's important to eat as clean as possible (lots of greens, fruits, veggies and beans and minimize the amount of sugar). Also drink enough water (I drink about 2,5 litre of water). I don't take any medications anymore, just some medications when I really overdo it with my activities (like moving house or other over the top activities like that).

I’m so proud of you. You are one of my very favorite gardeners on KZbin! I just became Plant Based in the last 2 months and like you, I didn’t know what to expect. So far I love and plan to never go back. I’ll be praying for you. May God Bless you!! Much love!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@Nomnomonurface]

Sorry to hear that you are going through so much. The Plantbased diet hopefully will help. Trying it out myself as I think plants are the real medicine. All the best dude And keep us updated 🙂✌️💚

[@joh6699]

I went from feeling so sad for this man as I watched the beginning on this video to smiling with joy seeing him so energized and happy at the end. Sending the best for further good health in your journey

[@westlondongardener4476]

Your face and skin looks so good as you progressed through the eating protocol!

[@ProjectDiaries]

I did film a face close up when my skin was bad but I couldn't bear seeing it in the video so cut it out. Thank you so much. It's really helped rebuild my confidence. :)

[@bajacaliforniarealestate1455]

Good luck to you! I don't see your name anywhere. I really appreciate you documenting your journey. You look great. Keep up the good work. You are an inspiration!

Congratulations on your success with a WFPB diet. You’re an inspiration. Best wishes for your surgery.

[@TheShopGrandOpening]

04:33 - that moment looking out the window. Reflecting. Making that decision that enough is enough - he made a choice, then and there, to take control of his "conditions". Almost had me cry, man. Felt for you. Good thing you changed your diet and improved your health. Best of luck and fortunate health to ya, bud.

[@raearnold743]

Thrilled that you're feeling so much better. Long may you continue to feel well... A lovely bloke you still look out for grandad. All best wishes for the future..

[@ProjectDiaries]

Thank you Rae! :)

[@jenniferburton2848]

I watched this video because it was in the auto play on my KZbin. I know this was a year ago and I have no idea where you are at now but you are a trooper and knowing the risks just from being on all that medication that harms so much more than it helps... You getting off of them all could really have saved your future if not your life. I am amazed by what you have accomplished in this video. The drugs.. the sugar.. amazing. I really hope you continue to limit these things. I think you show great strength that many wish they had. Be proud.

[@jennybegs]

You look incredible now! You're whole demeaner and eyes just exude health and happiness. I have pcos and a more wholegrain, plant based and lean meat diet is what seems to be what can help elevate my symptoms (not cure) but it's just getting then kick up the backside to do it, your video has inspired me 😊

[@DT-kx2gu]

You're so brave and strong. I'll be praying for your healing.

[@pocketminxuk112]

Welcome back!!! I've shared your channel with so many people. Good luck and wishing you future good health 💞

[@ProjectDiaries]

Thank you so much for your support! :)

[@highvibespirit6934]

Hi Lee, I have watched your gardening videos since the beginning, so I feel I "know" you. Watching you progress through this video, I couldn't help but get extremely emotional. Seeing you heal yourself gave me great joy! I think you are AWESOME. I am sending continued healing thoughts your way! Big Hugs from the US.

[@lj4404]

What an inspiration you are! I'm so happy for you. Well done 😊

[@cassienolan4553]

I have never seen any of your videos, my husband and I have been having health issues pop up more and more. I cried with you at the start 😢 I am watching lots of videos to find what has helped others.

[@rosemarywilliams9969]

😭Doctors have destroyed my life. Being thought to respect Authority and doctors and do exactly what they tell me to do has lead to the same downfalls that you have and it's sad that it takes us turning 30-plus and them saying they give up on us for us to realize that we have to take matters into our own hands and just go back to basics! So you keep doing what you're doing. 🖤

[@carlo6912]

So true. My mother has suffered from diabetes for years following doctors orders and has gotten progressively worse. I have tried to get her to go plant based but she tells me her doctor tells her to keep taking her meds.

[@SpirosAbatis]

Bless You Man, Be Plant Strong. You have the power! Anything you need we've all got your back!

[@thiago_lula]

That’s amazing! I’ve been watching your videos for a while now and wish that you keep going, feeling better and better, bringing happiness through food to millions out there. Hope this video can reach others that are also in need, really happy for you! Stay strong, alive and healthy! Thanks for all your hard work and for sharing your knowledge! 😄

[@lmccabs4063]

Much luck on your health journey brother. The beginning of the video with your sadness and all the meds was truly heart wrenching. Keep going.

[@hemmamistry6563]

Lee what an amazing journey. Just watched this and both me and my husband are feeling so inspired. You deserve great support from your followers and you are doing the world a great service by sharing this content. Thankyou for your vulnerability, I'm sure it will change the lives of many who think the common medical approach is the only way. May you continue to feel happy, healthy and well. I also recommend finding a good Ayurvedic practitioner to help you as your healing continues.

[@kangarooad]

So happy you re feeling better. Hope you continue feeling even better.

[@Stephens8x6Workshop]

Man I am so happy for you. You look, sound and radiate so much more and it is from the heart. Well done mate. Been there, done that, read the book, got the T-shirt, washed it, sent it back, taped over the video and downloaded the app! Six years ago I was four stone overweight, type 2 diabetic with eye complications, high blood pressure, arthritic pain in lower joints, muscle pain. Now I am normal weight, totally off all medication with all signs normal. Still have some arthritic pain in right foot but I suspect that is due to a teenage injury. Just like you the medical profession did not want to know. Just like you I felt I had a life back. Just like you it was hard but so worth it. Just like you I'm a whizz in the kitchen making healthy meals. I moved from being junk food vegan to vegan wholefood plant based. AND... ...THANKS TO YOU I am now growing a massive amount of home grown vegetables in my back garden (hardly no lawn left). Even using the roof of my porch as a growing area. This will cut down the amount of residual pesticides, growth inhibitors, emulsifiers, preservatives, additives and other treatments and chemicals used in the food industry. I have learnt to much watching your videos and I am so happy to see you improve and even thrive. Onwards and upwards my friend and enjoy your journey. Two years ago I stopped chasing the KZbin algorithm to concentrate on my own health and only recently I now feel I can get back to making more videos.

[@kimberlykeels8883]

This video was amazing to watch. The first thing I noticed from day to day was your smile. It was so obvious how much better you were feeling each day. Thanks so much for sharing your journey.

[@jacquelinekember1761]

Im so pleased for you, you seem such a lovely man , I really felt for you at the start of the video please stay strong

[@teondan1887]

I definitely understand your frustrations and please don't apologize for crying. I wish I could take your health issues away. I'm going to try this out as well.

[@HappyComfort]

When I was a young healthy teen, I went on Atkins with my mom, and it made me throw up blood. I have had a couple other experiences where red meat caused me extreme bloody diarrhea etc. so for me at least the plant based diet is the one that helped my digestive issues and blood pressure as well as when I had high cholesterol I tried Vegan for the first time, after a little over one month I went back to get a cholesterol test and it was down 79 points. I do feel better on plant based.

[@zoedj]

Thank you for your bravery, I have been a diabetic since I was 8, cancer, hypothyroidism, Ms, osteroporosis, raynauds, hair loss, chronic fatigue, and so much more. Like you, I'm now leaning towards what I can do, to stop the pain, both mentally, and physically. I love you for sharing your story. Namasta

[@earthbybike]

On a plant based diet, my arthritus took 4 months to completely resolve. Stay true to plants, everything else will just fall in place. Congrats on your success.

[@natpierce2008]

Hi earthbybike This is very encouraging. Did you eat fruit or any grains to get results. Is your arthritis still resolved?

[@earthbybike]

@@natpierce2008 Yes, it's been 7 yrs now and it has never come back.

[@robin0540]

My prayers and good thoughts are with you. You will get thru this. It is heartbreaking hearing you go thru this. Hold on sweetie. Your joy is you knowing it is right and your health will benefit. Blessings and love.

[@tracystewart8349]

Fantastic 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I’m so pleased for you Lee It’s fascinating what plant food can do for you & I’m sending you my blessing and best vibes to you 😇x

[@joangrant5857]

You are a definite testament to the whole plant based foods, so happy for you! Best of luck to you with your surgeries!

[@macherie300]

You've going to do so well. I started this week too.

[@annathy]

I look forward to all these videos you mention :) Pray that your surgery goes well and that you do so much better!

[@chantalkiburg7544]

What a change! Especially in your energy. You look really great after your challenge. I follow you for your garden videos And didn’t know you are sick. So sorry to hear that. I myself just started with plant based food because I have Fibromyalgie. You give me So much energy to continue. Thank you very much And I wish you all the best. Greetings from The Netherlands.

[@barbarabuchanan6254]

So glad for you. I have been plant based for about six months.

[@annamcgee7434]

This is the first time I have seen your Channel and I really enjoyed it! I recently have done a similar thing, I was having terrible health problems in and out of the hospital and all the doctors could do Is throw meds at me. I stopped eating all the junk and started eating mainly fruits and veggies. And I feel 1000% better!! I cant believe the difference thus far. I am 4 weeks in and love it. Even exercising daily. I felt like I was 100 yrs old and thought how am I going to feel When Im in my 50s if I feel this bad right now. Im so happy I have done this for myself. Good job at taking your health into your own hands. Im going to find that app you are using.😊

[@taharanaturals1763]

So happy that you are feeling so much better and off your medication. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I wish you all the best going forward. Pls keep us updated.

[@michelleadams2997]

With plant based my cravings are virtually non existent.

[@earthbybike]

Totally agree!!!!! Can't remember the last time I had a craving. I went WFPB 5 yrs ago. I use to love Burger King hamburgers. So I thought I'd try there PB burger. Tasted just like I remember, but SHOCKER I didn't like it any more. That was the last time I tried fake meat.
