Perception is huge when it comes to diet. I wouldn’t have believed it until my husband was faced with a health issue. My solution would have been to go Whole Foods plant based with an emphasis on fresh greens, he thought that’s the way we had been eating and blames the diet for his cancer. I do the grocery shopping and most all of the meal prep and I was kicking myself for always going to the old standbys; pizza, nachos, beyond burgers, breaded garden chicken sandwiches, etc. We had also been eating lots of impossible breakfast sandwiches, processed vegan cheeses, crackers and tortillas made from refined grains, a fair amount of foods made with cane sugar. I stayed vegan, but he had started eating eggs and dairy cheese. We have a large family and have people over for dinner often plus we have two teenager in the house so I would cave and stock up on simple, quick foods instead of healthy foods. We did have fresh juices, smoothies and salads. But not a day went by in which he did not have some sort of refined grains or sugar. But he swears he tried the whole food plant based diet and it failed him…I would not have believed it if it wasn’t happening to me…I still can hardly believe that’s what he truly thinks….an enigma. I’m sure several study participants follow the dietary guidelines and now I’m equally as sure that many do not follow them, but think they do. He’s smart in many ways, but didn’t understand how the macro percentages were based on caloric value, not volume. I have since switched to a WFPB diet and am starting to see many positive changes. Thank you for the relevant and informative discussion!

Health outcomes if you don't do it right are fatal in the mid-long term so I would never personally recommend it when it's so much easier to attempt adding more whole vegetables and fruits, miss the mark, and still have benefits.

At 65, I am extremely fascinated by food and nutrition chemistry in a way that I never expected. Having been a vegetarian for almost 40 years then switching to a diet that reduces the few animal products I once consumed down to a fraction of what I had, has been surprising. As I'm sure many can relate, my goal is to feel good as I age, not to prolong my life. Realizing that food is a necessity but it is also medicine and can benefit or undermine our quality of life, is a major inspiration to make optimal choices, regularly.

All my life food as been an issue, a huge one. I started dieting in my teens and continued all my life. Did most fad diets. I’ve turned 60 this year. I went plant based whole food in 2015, I weighed close to 200 pounds and lost about 35 pounds. I fell off the wagon mostly at work where im fed. So I still did the yo-yo because of the very restrictive approach I tried to loose the fat gained at work and still did the yo-yo… I have watch this specific podcast about 50 times since it was posted. Christopher Gardner’s message and studies are fascinating. His approach is so different and he seems to think outside the box in the parameters of his studies. It just makes sense! Its simple advise. Whole foods (not processed) It’s basically a low calorie density diet. And it makes me think of what Dr McDougall says about all animals having a specific diet to thrive on. There is a bunch of geese resting in the park I’m sitting at now and none of the geese are obese they all look pretty much the same and they eat very simple unprocessed food!!! Intermittent fasting, macros, food restrictions, miracle substance and vitamins I’m so fed up of being obsessed with food in an unhealthy way… There has to be a simpler way to get leaner and healthier without being consume by the whole thing.🙄why is it so hard!

Some carnivore advocates are, some aren't. Just the same with the vegan ones. But, while that is the case, I have yet to see a carnivore become violent, or destroy property. I've seen plenty of that in the vegan world. Both sides have a ways to go. Btw, I've been on both sides of that diet line.

I think this is the most honest and straight forward interview about nutrition I've heard in awhile. The experiment where they had people read the diet book and then studied what people actually did was brillante in it's simplicity. I appreciate Dr Gardners spirit of curiosity, this is real science. When speaking about tiers, I was wondering why they said to eat vegetables but not starchy ones. Whats wrong with starchy vegetables? And then, I would think that not eating refined grains was one of the first steps, and the 5th level would be soaking, sprouting, and fermenting foods. Anyway, very good interview, thank you.

Thanks for sharing these insights. I love to continue learning and also know that so much comes down to foundational habits we have. They seem like the boring primary answers with nutrition, exercise, stress management, sleep, reducing our toxic load - but these really are what creates lifelong wellness. We will ALWAYS be better off having these types of habits/lifestyle shifts and what I've found from my nearly 50 years of living and experimenting with nutrition and diets is that there will never be a one-size-fits all. I think looking at new research, experimenting with ourselves and becoming more intuitive with what we eat is helpful, but also it's not healthy to be obsessive about it.

10 years could be quite different than 1 year health effects. 10 years of Paleo (52% fat) got me to high BP (140/90) towards the end of the period (TC >220). 18 months of WFPBSOS got me off BP pills and 105-110/70-75 (TC 190-200, sadly not huge effect). So it takes time. And getting rid of junk is not enough as an advice. Adherence is not a problem when health is on the line. If you plan to live to be 40-45 max you can eat whatever does not make you sick or kills you in a day or two. When you are young you can think ethical. When you are 50 and health starts to get hits you think health.

But I felt extremely bad, tired all the time, joint pains, could not sleep etc. When I say extremely tired I am talking so tired that I was thinking "maybe if I dropped dead would be better because if this is going to be the rest of my life it sucks". When I realised that after eating meat I feel better I switched to dirty keto and then meat only and 3 months later I feel I could build a raiload on my own. So sorry, no way I would go back. Sure, for now, we should go after establisments were animals are treated poorly.

What I always miss when it comes to the question of protein consumption is the potential risk of promoting the growth of cancer cells. As that risk is so real and becomes bigger with age I would be happy to have more information on how to balance the risk with the need. (Dr. Valter Longo votes for a rather low protein intake due to his cancer research.) As a post menopausal woman I have been able to build considerable muscle mass consuming ~ 60g of protein per day (~ 1g/kg body weight), it just took almost 2 years because I had to go easy on my joints. I hope that my balance is okay, also in the future.

@@downtownjb100 I had not heard about Klotho - thank you for the interesting hint! As far as I understand its effect fits into the line of Longo‘s research of the IGF1-growth hormone cycle, meaning that low IGF1 (due to a lower intake of protein) down regulates growth. The „membrane protein“ Klotho is a hormone that represses intracellular signals of insulin and insulin-like growth factor (IGF1). Inhibiting this insulin signaling pathway is one of the evolutionarily conserved mechanisms for suppressing aging.

Are you eating exclusively or predominantly only fruit? If you are, you may be lean not only because you have lost fat, but also muscle. Fruit is low in protein, so you are probably getting only about half the amino acids you need to maintain your muscle tone. I hope you’ll consider gradually adding vegetables, legumes, grains, and nuts into your diet. Best wishes! 😊

I’d love to hear how Chris reconciles his favorite protein math (“at most 20 grams/day over maintenance even to build 10kg of pure muscle per year”) with the several experimental studies that show significant hypertrophy benefits to increasing protein up to 1.6 gm/kg and nontrivial benefits even well beyond that.

@Ermude10 8 ай бұрын

It doesn't really contradict anything he says. Most people aren't seeking hypertrophic gains. And it really doesn't benefit you much unless you can use it all, which most "fitness hobbyist" are far from reaching. Unless you're training like an elite athlete, you're probably going to do really well on 1-1.2 g/kg of protein. And I don't know which studies you've seen, but I'm pretty sure the benefits actually are pretty trivial above 1.6 g/kg? I might be wrong though.
