[@mamasshrimp422]

I used to be vegan believing that meat was the cause of my high cholesterol until I visited my Dr and my cholesterol was still high after giving up meat for 8 months. As a vegan, I was still consuming processed food, so I eliminated sugar and oil from my diet. Then I transitioned to a whole food plant based OMAD lifestyle. Now I have transitioned to a whole food plant focused diet where I supplement with sardines 2-3x weekly, still OMAD. I have so much energy, people cannot believe my age, they swear I am at least 10 years younger and my mental clarity is on fleek! I now believe it is the animals being fed processed food and the over consumption of this ultra processed protein in addition to the processed foods that people are overly consuming that is the real problem for the health crisis that currently exists.

[@lacerav5818]

What types of wholefoods plant based diet do you eat and when you say you supplement with sardines do you mean in the form of tablets?

[@beatricebello]

Wow, Valter Longo! Italy is proud of you😃 I read both, "The Plant Paradox", Doctor Gundry, and "La dieta della longevità", Longo. Both books were very interesting. Thank you so much🥰

[@nataliejacoby]

Hey my name is Natalie I’m 11 and my mom is a big fan of yours. Her name is reina Jacoby and she watches your podcasts almost every day. You have helped her through her auto immune decease and Her R.A is doing so much better thanks to your diet !it would mean a lot to her if you would mention her in you podcast.she is the most amazing person ever and she means the world to me. Thank you so much

[@jacoba.1489]

When Dr. Gundry asked him if he does fasting mimicking diet he answered he does it maybe twice a year , this raises some questions he is not doing what he is preaching for !!!!

[@pennyrapp7372]

He can’t afford it ! He loves beans. Beans r really full of carbs mmm

[@harca6]

Thank you Longo and Gundry for dropping gems us! Much appreciated. Cheers and God bless you all!

[@micheldubois9466]

I've experienced fasting and it regenarates inner organs fonctionning ! Thanks docs ! Namaste !

[@micheldubois9466]

Doctor G you're so fascinating in you development you're making me want to live more ! You're my best friend ! Keep up your good work ! Namaste !

[@carstars]

Did a FMD last month and was amazed how it improved by T2D by lower my daily averages glucose levels weeks later. Very interesting to here the latest insights from Valter.

[@lazerwlf4230]

Dr. G! I've been looking everywhere for information about something, and I can't find anything relevant to my question. Could you perhaps tell us in a future Q&A session about the mechanism by which food affects blood pressure? Google can't answer my question, I just keep getting results for "foods that lower blood pressure!" and an explanation of how digestion affects blood pressure. I specifically want to know HOW, MECHANICALLY, certain foods increase blood pressure. What is it about certain foods that increases blood pressure? I've recently been made aware of my blood pressure issues and, while I'm chugging along very well following both yours and Dr. Longo's advice, I find that I do very well when I understand the mechanisms by which things work. If you've already explained this, may I ask where I might find it? Thank you for any help, and thank you for everything you've done for me so far.

[@r.davidyoung7242]

Fantastic conversation. Very mature thinking. Challenges my current fasting habits. Thank you. Love your books, Dr. Gundry! ❤️🤜🤛🙌

[@patrickjaros2835]

Dr. Gundry, various herbs and spices have been used by numerous different cultures for a long time. Ones like ginger or turmeric have gained a reputation for having many health benefits. Have you looked into which herbs and spices may have high lectin contents that should be avoided? Are lectins still present in dry powders? Thanks and love the podcast!

[@lf7065]

This is what Natasha Campbell McBride, the inventor of the GAPS diet, has been saying for years: the vegan diet is a fasting diet. It is catabolic. Animal foods are anabolic. She has a great book on that particular subject.

[@ntrelis]

Keep it balanced, do not stress and as you age, eat less .

[@lf7065]

This! 👍🥰

[@bikingrealtor]

Great podcast. Thank you for your work.

[@TracyevolutionofselfMoore]

Dr Gundry. I loved your Plant Paradox books and love your podcasts. Question for you. Do you think it's better to take Resveratrol or Glutathione for slowing the aging process? Thanks in advance😊

[@WatchingPlanesnbirds]

Great interview!

[@bigfan1069]

Dr Gundry give us your toughts on long covid ? Any of your patients long haulers?

[@natalyafisher778]

Great podcast. I am confused. Do we need eat breakfast or not?. Do we need follow time restriction diet?. So how we can improve longevity,?

[@jacquelinedella-santa2451]

such an awesome interview, best of you both xxx

[@worawatsr9803]

Fasting is good, but not eating meat is not a great advice. You have to eat both meat and vegetables to get all the essential nutrients. You can get protein from plants, but they are not complete protein

[@DimndSLM]

I agree. I have done the 21 day Daniel fast and usually feel like crap if I don’t take a bite of chicken. My body functions way better with all the nutrients ❤️

[@peacequeen2579]

Very true.

[@celeriacmarcus]

If you eat legumes with grain it makes a complete protein.

[@goldenratiogs4099]

33:20 conflict: Dr.G skipping breakfast is good as explained in the keto code. Dr. V states ketones cause plaques .. confused ...

[@lmwlmw4468]

Nice.

[@meowswoofs1829]

Dr. Gundry what am I doing wrong??? My A1C was 8.2 three months ago. My sugars were 300 at night and 200's in the a.m. I totally changed my diet, eating tons of veggies, no dairy, nuts, seeds, grass fed meat. Added supplements. I eat breakfast at 10 now, trying to follow your guidelines. My inflammation marker was 11 a year ago! Now last 3 months my sugars down, 107 to 155 in the mornings, 140's to 190's at night. Had to drop my insulin in 1/2 so not to have so many low sugars. My A1C today 8.5, makes no sense at all 🙁

[@gazelleSharmahd]

I’m not a doctor but just in case if he doesn’t answer maybe my answer can help you. A1C is just a number that tells you the average of your blood sugar readings over a 120 day period. A1C of 8.2 means your average BS were 189. A1C of 8.5 means your average BS were 197. So both of these are about 200. And you think why has it not improved? Diabetics who are needing to take insulin have very fluctuating ranges, even more than what you measure, you may even go hypoglycemic during sleep and don’t know. So let’s say you BS readings during one day go as high as 300, then 200 in the evening and even close to 100 when you sleep. The average of these 3 readings is 200. But you can also have BS in the range of 200, 220, and 180. The average of these three is also 200. You see that your A1C blood sugar average of 200 does not tell you anything about how high and low your sugars are. Cortisol from stress could be causing a high BS spike in the morning but your other BS readings are much lower, but your average still comes out to 200. My advice: forget about a useless number like A1C. Focus on getting off of your insulin, which you are already reducing so much. Reducing the amount of insulin you need to Inject shows that you are doing absolutely everything right. And once you are off of it start measuring your fasting insulin to see how metabolically flexible you are.

[@kaminathekoach9087]

I'm confused. He said that people who skip breakfast love shorter loves and think that only a 12:12 daily fasting schedule is safe. You recommend intermittent fasting at a 14:8. How does this work out?

[@dailydoseofmedicinee]

👍👍

[@Waltersantoni]

So the guy does intermittent fasting and then destroys his gut with grains with hi meal. Wow he is completely missing the point. I’m glad you get it Dr Gundry.

[@abdelilahbenahmed4350]

do you have any scientific data showing that grains destroy the gut ?

[@lf7065]

I believe that both glyphosate and unrefined/unfermented grains damage the gut lining. In Europe, we have eaten refined grains that were not sprayed with glyphosate for a very long time. Noone I know had or has gut issues like us here in the US.

[@andrastoth44]

Dear Gundry What is going on the last 8 months I stopped having breakfast to have a healthy life as you do too! And now I am confused after he says that will shortening our life? Please advice :)

[@abdelilahbenahmed4350]

Scientific data is stuborn my friend: skipping breakfast could shorten your life.

[@ntrelis]

You do not need to skip breakfast every day

[@andrastoth44]

Than if I want more energy and better muscles intermittent fasting if I want to leave longer skip the lunch?

[@luciana_nemes]

Skipping breakfast is not a good idea, I don't care what they say. I can list you several reasons why you shouldn't do that. Just eat healthy in every meal, sleep 8 hours every night and exercise regularly. Fasting once in awhile for a day or so might be good for you.

[@lf7065]

Eat when you're hungry, don't if you're not. Just listen to your body.

[@demaskatorr]

Could someone summarize for me this video please? English is my second language same as for the speaker Longo, even the caption do not help much here. There is broken flow so I am lost.

[@debbieoforhan5985]

If click on the down marker, you will see a link to the transcript. Perhaps reading it will help you ! :)

[@demaskatorr]

@@debbieoforhan5985 actually, it helps ;-) thanks.

[@pennyrapp7372]

Maybe the people that skip breakfast don’t eat less carbs maybe they’re hungrier but for the people who skip breakfast that want to keep their calories in a certain window and a healthy diet whole food diet they’re fine I mean I would like to see what these people are eating on the studiesskip breakfast

[@maylavandercruyssen2100]

impssi6lé traduct in french language please thank very much

[@paulamarie4625]

I have been following the Keto Intensive care program in The Plant Paradox book and I wonder if you could clear something up for me. I'm I allowed to eat figs and dates? Also, I feel week and tired a good part of the time even though I have MCT oil in the morning and between meals. Could this be temporary? I have been doing the program for almost 3 weeks. Thank you!

[@Nicolailund15]

Sodium, potassium and magnesium could be low if you went from standart carb diet direct to this.

[@teridacktaljones4553]

👍

[@rfbead321]

Trust no one who advices against eating meat. 🤣

[@kirubealbekele4955]

His accent is so thick , it is hard to follow him.

[@Moment2Forever]

Listened to this at 2x speed and had no issues understanding. Must be a YOU problem

[@worawatsr9803]

His accent is not that hard to understand. He’s not a native speaker, so this type of accent is expected

[@DimndSLM]

@@Moment2Forever that’s not really kind to say. We all have different challenges and I also think we need to know if the person needing a little help may have English as a second language. I don’t think they have a “problem”, just a challenge.

[@abdelilahbenahmed4350]

focus on the message not the person. Anyway, dr LONGO is a world class scientist even with a thick accent.

[@babettejennichan9228]

Nothing wrong with his accent. He speaks very clear you just need to listen carefully.

[@kirubealbekele4955]

Talking fast with a thick accent regarding a complicated subject is useless to the listener.

[@kevs1536]

You do know there's a close caption option, right? It's not perfect but it helps.

[@ellie698]

His accent is actually pretty clear to understand I thought. Captions will help you I hope 🙏x

[@MrAmbrosse]

I understand him fine. Get better at listening.

[@DimndSLM]

@@MrAmbrosse rude comment.

[@mamasshrimp422]

You can change the playback speed in the options. I did that I thought I was listening slow.

[@ligiasommers]

OMGODNESS after hearing so much about dr Longo it is the first time I see him . He looks soooooo young !! He is sure the best marketing for his program 🙏🏻❤️‍🩹✨
