People will spend $1,500 a month on this drug and then say eating healthy is too expensive.

[@jb_1971]

Probably not the same people, but still I don't get it.

[@solfeinberg437]

This is like his argument about buying a car: You don't buy a car because it isn't a total wreck - you buy the best one you can for the money. Drugs may be better than being obese, but you could just eat vegetables and stop eating salt and be really protected.

[@AndreaAvila78]

I enjoy listening to Dr Fuhrman because he tells it like it is. He doesn't sugar coats things. I believe him. I've never liked eating animal foods since childhood and my parents were worried about me. Now I feel relieved and happy because science backs a diet free of animal products. ❤

[@arabellaszigyarto1193]

Absolutely love watching your podcast ❤!!!! And just found out about your coaching programme 🎉 is next on my list! Looking forward for it! My best wishes to you both and thank you for your enthusiastic work ❤

[@AKBringerofLight]

Yeah It's such a shame and frustrating when so many 'health' influencers focus on their content being about weight loss instead of the main focus being on healthy diet. Or when they push their 'fixes Everything' diet because truthfully it's how they built their yt channel and how they make money and won't research into more things. Thanks for being real.

[@dancingonhands]

Yes! Excellent comment!🙌🏼

[@jbrock3006]

Really enjoy listening to Dr. Furhman and have learnt much from him. If I lived in the US would’ve considered going to his health resort! All the best in health to him and his daughter 😊

[@notablepianolessons2322]

Thank you Dr Fuhrman, for speaking the truth when so many others are ignoring it!!

[@BobRothman]

Wow! What a great interview and content! i love the connection between father and daughter!

[@CampMimi-es3sj]

My daughter was on antibiotics when she was a baby for ear infections. She is 47 now and I have a history of breast cancer, family history of colon cancer. I will forward this information to her. 🙏🙏🙏

[@CampMimi-es3sj]

Truth be known 🙏 Dr. Furhman!

[@smilebot484]

it would be cool if you guys could add the list of studies to the episode notes.

[@NancyCronk]

I wish I knew what I know now about nutrition. I am convinced all three of my kids had chronic ear infections and needed ear tubes from all the cow's milk I gave them as toddlers and preschoolers. I should have put them on plant milks after they weaned from breastfeeding. When I think of the gallons of antibiotics my poor kids had, it makes me ill.

[@white-rabbit93]

Ma'am, cows milk certainly didn't cause chronic ear infections in your children. Please do not blame yourself. But if they consumed plant based diets, that could have helped them battle infections and heal naturally. And even if they had gallons of antibiotics, that is not certain to cause them various cancers later in life. It can happen those who never took any antibiotics at all develop five different cancers on their body and those who took gallons make it up to a healthy centenarian disease free. It really matters what we eat today.

[@LegacyFarmandHomestead]

Just a constructive criticism: she needs to stop interrupting so much. He keeps cutting him off and interrupting. Another thing is her mic level is too high, and Dr ferman's Mike level is too low. So it's a double whammy.

[@scottgmail]

Yes. She should stop interrupting and let him explain more thoroughly. It’s very annoying

[@ocelotcat]

Yes, I totally agree. She's very annoying when she keeps interrupting him. She interrupts too much and doesn't really add to the conversation. 😒

[@rebeccafannin1429]

It’s frustrating. We don’t get all the info when she cuts him off.

[@Rirome61]

Yep. Agree

[@lisengel2498]

And the wonder is also that you feel so much better when you eat this basic and delicious food for Life: whole grains, beans, nuts, seeds, and vegetables - no added suger, salt or Oil. Aiches and pains often disappear, very often in just 10 days on a basic food without animal products. Your Energy gets so much higher and you Will look better in every I am nearly 80 years Old. I have changed very late but I Got rid of my knee pain and I move with joy every day. I am really greatfull for all this Scientific advice being share on the internet - its a true blessing to have a choice and stay healthy as Long as possible 🎵🍀🎶💚

[@mariadietz7559]

I have read your books, great info. I am wondering if you know of a Dr. or support group in MN. I have tried the FB support groups and find they are not very helpful. Looking for a professional who can help. Thanks so much

[@CampMimi-es3sj]

Love you Dr. Furhman! Your daughter is beautiful!

[@emilybarry9410]

Hi Dr. Fuhrman! Great podcast! I am wondering do you recommend only consuming sprouted over reg raw nuts? This is much less convenient but I understand it is healthier/better for absorption?

[@beverlychristian6202]

Fantastic information

[@dougupton1203]

I follow a nutritionial diet but what I’d like to know is how do we know about the long term results of antibiotics from childhood

[@CampMimi-es3sj]

Should a patient on statin medication take CQ 10? It’s my understanding that statin meds inhibit production of CQ 10.

[@sectionalsofa]

I would say yes and that I do (200 mg of the Ubiquitol form) but you're asking the wrong doctor. I love Dr. Fuhrman and learn so much from him but he's not a fan of either statins or supplementation outside a small number of specific nutrients necessary on a plant based diet. The one to ask your question is Dr. Joel Kahn.

[@PeaceIsJesusChrist]

@@CampMimi, any doctor who truly is preventative and cares about healing their patients is absolutely against statins. They’re one of the most dangerous big Pharma drugs out there. Also, if you’re eating healthy fats, high cholesterol isn’t a bad thing-in fact, it’s actually protective. The carnivore doctors have lots of information about high LDL, cholesterol, etc (even if you don’t agree with their diet). Just 🔍 the words carnivore with one of those to pull up videos. Ken Berry, Anthony Chaffee, etc explain it well. I hope this helps! ❤

[@Jeffs60]

You forgot to show they made a mistake which had to be corrected on the first study. “After adjusting for major lifestyle and dietary risk factors, animal protein intake was weakly associated with higher mortality, particularly cardiovascular mortality."

[@Jeffs60]

2003 study: No effect of 600 grams fruit and vegetables per day on oxidative DNA damage and repair in healthy nonsmokers.

[@williamwightman8409]

Dr. Fuhrman has a strange notion about the effects carbohydrate restriction on insulin resistance. The body will always have the carbohydrates needed and unless we eat too much digestible carbs there is good health. The liver takes care of carb levels as required. It is a process that was with us before prehistoric times. If we are eating right in the evening we typically wake up in ketosis. It is a healthy and natural process. Babies in utero are in ketosis. Insulin resistance is reduced with prolonged low and healthy levels of carbohydrates. Also, there are no RCTs that show a causal link between healthy natural saturated fat consumption and increased all-cause mortality. Fuhrman is trying to shut multiple reasoning gates that do not exist.

[@white-rabbit93]

Great informations both. Im shocked 23 million people in America follow keto diet. Americans are always on the top and first to practise and spread bad cultures in people. American Heart Association even refused to recognize something called carnivore as a diet and their 2023 rankings of heart healthy diet enlisted the High Saturated fat diets like Keto diet at the bottom of their list.

[@beverlychristian6202]

We need plant based md’s

[@Cingearth]

Sugar and the damage it does .why is metabolism linked to health ??

[@jamesigo6324]

Nutritarian is not fad, nutritarian is logic based on science.

[@karenpeaden271]

No one should eat processed meats you included them with meat

[@thaicraft1219]

How is it even possible to take this guy seriously at ANY level for literally pandering the notion that carnivores, FOR THOUSANDS IF YEARS, were doing it all wrong. This guy is the poster boy for second opinions.

[@williamwightman8409]

Put a nation state that is vegan/vegetarian in competition with a nation state that is paleo with some vegetables and you will see the vegan/vegetarians unable to thrive due to nutritional deficits that affect cognition, growth, strength, and immunity all the way from pre-birth to old age.

[@angelhernandez490]

​@@williamwightman8409Something g tells me yiu haven't looked at all the science and studies that Dr. Furhman uses, nor have listened to all of his talks.
