Dr. Michael Greger | How Not To Die | Talks at Google

Dr. Greger visited Google NYC to discuss his new book - How Not to Die.
The vast majority of premature deaths can be prevented through simple changes in diet and lifestyle. In How Not to Die, Dr. Michael Greger, the internationally-recognized lecturer, physician, and founder of NutritionFacts.org, examines the fifteen top causes of death in America-heart disease, various cancers, diabetes, Parkinson’s, high blood pressure, and more-and explains how nutritional and lifestyle interventions can sometimes trump prescription pills and other pharmaceutical and surgical approaches, freeing us to live healthier lives.
The simple truth is that most doctors are good at treating acute illnesses but bad at preventing chronic disease. The 15 leading causes of death claim the lives of 1.6 million Americans annually. This doesn’t have to be the case. By following Dr. Greger’s advice, all of it backed up by peer-reviewed scientific evidence, you will learn which foods to eat and which lifestyle changes to make to live longer.
History of prostate cancer in your family? Put down that glass of milk and add flaxseed to your diet. Have high blood pressure? Hibiscus tea can work better than a leading hypertensive drug-and without the side effects. What about liver disease? Drinking coffee can reduce liver inflammation. Battling breast cancer? Consuming soy is associated with prolonged survival. Worried about heart disease (our #1 killer)? Switch to a whole-food, plant-based diet, which has been repeatedly shown not just to help prevent the disease, but arrest and even reverse it.
In addition to showing what to eat to help prevent the top 15 causes of death, How Not to Die includes Dr. Greger’s Daily Dozen-a checklist of the foods we should try to consume every day. Full of practical, actionable advice and surprising, cutting edge nutritional science, these doctor’s orders are just what we need to live longer, healthier lives.

Dr. Gregor is one of the most ethical and honest doctors in the world. He is able to present the truth to the general public without cowering to powerful vested interests like the AMA, ACS, Big Agra, Food and Pharma etc. He deserves a Noble Prize.

[@passedhighschoolphysics6010]

Don't think so. Greger only presents evidence which supports his beliefs. The sad part about Greger is he surprises everything that don't agree with his beliefs. His beliefs have been peer reviewed and holes and flaws have been found which Greger can't explain. Newer research pokes even more holes in Greger's beliefs. This is not to say Grerger is completely wrong. but we know have better theories to explain what's going on. Greger really needs to update his material and beliefs.

[@bradturner6992]

what are the theories? if you have any links, doctors, or sources id love to see them, and im not being sarcastic id love to see them.

[@paulharris9868]

I posted a couple today, he is a quack and bias. Only thing he says that is true that vegetables are good for you (though he should be saying 'organic' each time with that word due to Glyphosate on all USA farmed products thanks to Monsanto, but that is a different forum). I have no respect in General for MD's (they about killed me with Med's and information or lack thereof) after my heart attack in 2011. Come to find out after years of research since it is all wrong and we have all been, and still are, being lied to. It is coming around though, so keep watching. Veggies are great, and if you are metabolically sound, and choose that lifestyle, I think it can be healthy. However, almost 1/2 of America over 30 (and that number is going down each year) are metabolic syndrome (ie: have diabetes or are pre-diabetic) and going from the SAD diet to almost anything will help, but if you are (like I was) pre-diabetic and have the big 5 for risk of heart attack then you should probably not eat as much as a carrot for a bit till it is under control. Anyway, this past year I moved to a ketogenic high fat diet, and my lipids are better than ever. HDL up and triglycerides down. Vitamin D is up (get int he sun daily now, best way to improve 25-hydroxy). I eat 70% fat, much of it saturated as well. 4 eggs with bacon each morning and keep in mind I have a stent!! However, and this is big no matter what Dr. Jeckal here says "it is all grass fed organic, no hormones or steroids, no veggies sprayed with Glyphosate or GMO seed. I think this is where the problem lies and this is being researched as well and know. All these diseases (cancer and CVD) spiked around the 70's and have a linear raise after then introduction of Round Up and GMO crops.... You cannot alter anything and expect all these tests to be accurate and this research to be controlled! I eat myself 30 Grams only of carbs a day mostly from spinach with each meal cooked and a salad with no carb dressing, and some lemons in water etc. There is so much info out there just need to search for it, do not take all this idiot has to say to heart, he is HIGHLY bias, I promise you. That said, I am NOT saying the a Vegan diet is not right for many, especially if your lucky enough to be insulin sensitive and not insulin resistant. That is the difference between us, I will never tell anyone to cut out all their vegetables, because I an not on the board for either the humane society or the cattle company. I comment and make decisions based on 'real' science and papers of which "all" are available and viewable without this guy stating that 'he has researched all the documents on this topic so you do not have to"... clearly that is a lie. Make good choices :) ketocentral.shutterfly.com/pictures/12#11 www.humanewatch.org/hsus_doc_exposed_as_schlock/ www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/death-as-a-foodborne-illness-curable-by-veganism/

[@jeannefischer3868]

The point of this lecture is to promote eating more veggies and fruit and less meat. I have seen others that are here on UTube where he addresses the pesticides and herbicides sprayed on the produce. His point is to get people of the drugs or better yet prevent them from going on it He is aware I assure you of that .

[@PaulB_864]

It's got to be explicitly stated that the abstinence of meat isn't for health benefits, but rather for personal moral or religious reasons. If some nutritionally naïve person watches Greger's vids with the goal of learning about an optimal diet, they'd be mistaken in to believing animal products are unhealthy. Having to supplement makes a vegan diet incomplete, and that's fine if like I said it's done out of moral reasons rather than health reasons.

did you start?

[@yuppers1]

How did it go? It's OK to keep trying. The only failure is the failure to try again. Personally, I took three years to go vegan. I treated bacon as a food group so this was how I had to do it. I gave up pork first, then beef and chicken, fish and shellfish, then cheese and milk, then butter. But I made every lifestyle change as I could handle it, one bit at a time, and that's why I stuck to it. Keep trying!!

I'm actually very curious how you can manage to pull that off. Especially if you drive at night. At least my personal experience with switching to a WFPB diet was that I have to go to the toilet twice a day now, which would be pretty inconvenient if I had to wait for hours until a restroom opens. On top of that, it must be hard getting healthy food from highway cafés - how are you managing that? Are you taking food with you instead?

[@oldellxp]

I have so much to catch up on. I'll be watching his videos and reading his printed material (studying) for months to come - and loving it!

[@stahlsparre]

Lol, this guy is the best. Always backs up his funny shit with serious studies that try to frame the "big picture".

[@khamzah1411]

Brilliant brilliant brilliant guy - an absolute must watch!!

[@nuggettisthecrankycalabres548]

I go to lots of lectures to learn about my health, mainly my depression and bipolar. The WORST thing is when the lecture ends, and we have to Q&A. I was so glad when the main talk ended, and Q&A started :) very good!

[@Adam-yd8dw]

I understand you're likely interested in plant based diets, but the reasoning behind the carnivore diet looks incredibly promising so I'd advise to check that too

[@laurenkinghorn]

Thanks so much for entertaining us while teaching us how not to die, Dr Michael Greger! You make even the most serious subject easy to digest. ;)

[@community1854]

This doc is just amazing!!

Dr. Greger is a rock star in our Vegan Community.

[@sugarbabylove1000]

Fabulous video. Well worth taking the time to watch it all. Although Dr G covers some information here that I was already aware of, there was still plenty there that was new to me.

[@hrehe1234]

He's an absolute beast! The Q&A at the end proves it!

[@semisweetjenn]

Dr. Gregor is still awesome. Keep going.

[@Brentcolo]

This book and his advise really improved my health.

[@findyourpurple7027]

Rocked my world. Have to have a heart to heart with myself to figure out how serious am I about my health. Giving it a go for 10 days to see if I feel different. We'll see. Hopefully I'll see enough to put up with the learning curve. I'm sooo attached to my foods.

Trog Lobyte honestly, I think many of them are just stunned.

[@manojp6785]

Thanks doctor. I reversed blood pressure from hypertension stage 1 to 120/80 in 4 months. Now I am 41 and I was suffering from hypertension from age 25. Also,I am down to 190 pounds from 213. My last blood work results which was done 6 months ago were not good . I am planning to do next blood test in 2 months and hoping that all readings in normal range. Changing to plant based diet, cut down sugar, carbs, oil, and 45 minutes walk a day worked very well for me in improving overall health.

[@lynns7262]

Congratulations!

[@alextorres990]

I've been vegan for 6 years. In that time: my asthma is completely under control, I haven't had a lung infection ( I used to get them 3x a year, I haven't had a UTI, my blood pressure is normal, and I just over all feel amazing. But I make sure to take my B12 and vegan DHA.

[@Quasar502]

You're the best. Thanks for what you do.

[@soilikasanen]

This lecture is SO GREAT! I wonder if I´m the first doctor in Finland seeing this. Hopefully not the last one!

[@happycook6737]

Check out Dr. Neil Barnyard's Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine website and Dr. John McDougal's website. For cardiology check Dr. Esselstyn's website. All believe the same as Dr. Geger. McDougal gives away his nutrition program for free and includes many free recipes!!!

[@soilikasanen]

@@happycook6737 and cardiologists Baxter Montgomery, Kim Williams, gastroenterologist Alan Desmond, endocrinologist Zach Bush, psykologist Neil Nedley... Physicians Association for Nutrition is a trustworthy site. And I'm not alone in Finland with my thoughts anymore 😊

[@AnantMall]

Maybe i'm not able to see faces of the people here, but what the fuck kind of response is that to a passionate speaker. Not one loud laugh!?

they're too fucking shocked by the data

They're all vegan and thus, too weak to laugh.

[@chuck692514]

looks like you didn't watch the video

[@tybrady1935]

You can tell Dr Greger just loves talking about a whole food plant based diet, and that’s so cool!

[@sarahsvibody]

Thank you so much for your honest facts.

Thanks to Dr Greger. "Medical science is only in its infancy, yet it has shown that our natural diet is that which grows out of the ground. The people will gradually develop up to the condition of this natural food." ~ Bahai Faith

Dr.Greger is fantastic! He is the only one who makes me laugh while learning life important information !) fantastic presentation!

[@pastanoo]

Dr. Greger, you are the best thing that has ever happened to mankind

[@aidanclare6602]

This lecture was a very pivotal part of my change in diet. In my mid 20s I had this notion that I was indestructible and that I could eat anything I wanted. After some health scares I eventually became vegetarian. During the pandemic I had time to think about a lot of things, and eventually found the idea of harvesting sentient beings for food when I knew that better, cheaper and healthier alternatives were available was inexcusable, so I became full vegan in 2021. I have more clarity of thought, improved sleep, and I have not been sick in at least 2 years, no COVID or even a cold. I am not saying my experience will necessarily be the same as other people’s, and I’m not saying a vegan diet will solve all your problems, but it’s a step in the right direction and it seems most nutritional research supports that.

[@RiDankulous]

Dr. Greger is a medical knowledge powerhouse. He's both hardworking and competent. There isn't much sensationalism: the information is objective. This is a good video to recommend to people who are scientifically inclined. They will enjoy the insight regardless if they change their diet.

[@animatetheidea7945]

Thanks for a great presentation.

[@trinity115]

This is a gem! I wish this video would have captions in more languages like german, russian, spanish, french. Then I could send it to my loved ones who just don"t speak or understand english.

[@VHelander]

Go whole food plant based!

[@NaveenYoYoDude]

@Infernal Moondance why

[@petarpetrov3591]

go MEAT and ONLY MEAT!

[@RiDankulous]

This is one of Dr. Greger's best presentations in my opinion, and I have seen a lot of them on KZbin. His focus on providing evidence through the studies, and the pacing / covering all of the causes of death, is excellent.

[@HH-gn9qt]

Agreed, his schtick was at his highest here...trying to be hip with the young Google audience no doubt.

[@raybroussard]

Thanks for your valuable information Doc!
