Finally!! I've been waiting for someone to do a quality video debunking Dave Asprey. I followed him and the bulletproof diet for years. In fact, I was so involved that he actually quoted me in the first chapter in his first book. But after years my health was getting worst and was tired of wasting a small fortune on his zillion supplements and smart drug stimulants. Been vegan for going on almost 3 years and never felt better! My blood work is way better now, natural energy is back, and saving a ton of money on supplements!

I was sold on my vegan diet when I went in for my yearly physical after only three months as a vegan. When the doctor took my blood pressure, I waited for the usual response I'd received since high school of, "oh, blood pressure's a little high. Must be 'white coat syndrome'". The doc told me I was in a very healthy range. It blew my mind. When I got my blood labs back, it was the same. Super healthy range. I always had borderline to high cholesterol until I went vegan.

I would possibly believe this crap if not for being vegan for almost 10 years. Everyone is looking for a miracle diet to make them feel amazing 100% of the time- but that doesn’t exist. We live in a world full of pollutants in so many aspects (water, soil, air) we stare at cell phones all day and don’t get nearly enough physical activity, jobs and financial stresses and everyone wants to blame veganism. Everyone around me is struggling with skin issues, painful periods, weight gain, losing hair. I don’t know why ppl would be content eating predominantly dead carcasses and their secretions. So happy I found this lifestyle 10 years ago. I can’t imagine my health had I not.

I've been vegetarian (mostly) for about 24 years now, ever since becoming Buddhist in 1995, and vegan (WFPBLO actually) in March 2017 after watching Dr. Joel Fuhrman's video on public television. There are very few plant based meals offered at local restaurants, so it helps alot that I am now retired and now have the time to cook nearly all my own meals. Going 100% plant based must be difficult for parents who are still working full time jobs.

What a funny coincidence that you should publish this piece on the day I had a blood test for my cholesterol. I had been on th keto diet for 18 months and my cardiologist gave me an emergency sit down on August 9 to tell me my cholesterol score put me in the 90th percentile of danger for a stroke or heart attack. I changed to vegetarian and then vegan within a week. Today's results just came in after three months as a vegan (and I love being vegan, not a strain at all). Overall cholesterol went from 294 to 149. HDL went from 75 to 55. LDL went from 205 to 83 and Trig went from 70-56. I had decided that after two days of taking a statin prescription that it was not for me. I started watching your videos and those of Simnett Nutrition and got the daily inspiration I needed and I FEEL (and look) FANTASTIC! You were a helpful cheerleader through your supply of facts derived from accredited studies. Very much appreciated.

Gah! That guy boils my blood. I have 3 kids, been vegan for 10 years, they’re all vegan. My third was 10lbs at birth! My doctor said I basically birthed a toddler. She also always said I was her easiest, healthiest patient with zero health issues or complications during pregnancy. My oldest is 4 and in pre-k, and intellectually blowing the other kids out of the water. He can already do algebra! Also, I’ll just note, my oldest has always been off the charts tall and super skinny and my 2nd born is more average in height and much heavier. Genetics really seem to play a bigger factor in your development! They eat the same, but have very different builds. Anyway, in case there’s a pregnant vegan mama out there freaking out ... it’s possible to be vegan and have great, healthy, SMART kids.

I should also note I’m not trying to brag or make anyone feel bad who has suffered with infertility or pregnancy issues on any diet...

They told me to eat eggs or bacon for breakfast the day of my blood test and avoid carbs... I had waffles with maple syrup and came in under the acceptable range. Super low! I do think my diet helped with that!

I don't know if you read my message and listened and decided to post this but that is awesome if you did! Thank you for informing the public on this! Its ridiculous these unscientific claims that he makes!

From someone who regularly climbs and improves all the time on a vegan diet, that pull up bar claim hurt my soul. I felt embarrassed for him.

This guy needs to be shut down... his advice will harm people!!

[@scocassovegetus]

He's just another of these people who will do anything to make a buck. Doesn't matter at all that he's helping people towards ill-health. Well, let's also mention that he's not very intelligent.

[@kevinisbell1867]

I think what happens to some vegans, I was one of them. Is at first you eat alot of whole foods then you discover vegan junk and drift from plants. So at first you feel great and then you eventually feel the junk and get brain fog, joint pains or whatever. I asked hench herbivore about this and he told me to cut out oils, sugars and try to get closer to whole foods plant based, I did what he said and all my problems went away. The closer to whole foods plant based and farther away from vegan junk foods the better.

[@Kermittreefrog]

I am shocked how ridiculous some people people are with their false claims that they pull out their butts. I'm still not fully vegan, but I rarely eat meat or dairy anymore and when I do I have all kinds of misery. A vegan diet is the only thing that makes me feel like I can live my life without pain and misery. Thank you for setting the record straight on this nonsense.

Sorry to hear that. I also bought his book ages ago and just tried the bulletproof coffee (without buying his coffee) and got such a headache everything i drank it so I stopped and never went back to his bulletgoof diet. Hope you make a speedy recovery.

100 years ago he would’ve been the guy who rolled up in a wagon pulled out a bottle of liquid BS and start shouting “this cures whatever ails you.” He would make his money, get back in the wagon and get the hell out of dodge before people realized they had been scammed.

Even when I wasn’t vegan I found the idea of putting butter in my coffee pretty disgusting 😬

[@johnbostrom9165]

Grieving wife : Why did he die? It happened so fast. Coroner: we examined his stomach contents and found large amounts of kale, broccoli, cauliflower and spinach. Grieving wife: no! I only served meat and potatoes slathered in butter. Coroner: he found the vegetables somewhere. You did what you could, but you can do more. Make sure your kids don’t touch any green vegetables. We recommended force feeding of steak or meatloaf if necessary. Grieving wife: that makes sense. Thanks, Dr Asprey.

My whole family is vegan and I have 3 kids that are thriving on a whole food, plant based diet. My kids always have energy, growing stronger all the time and hardly ever get sick. 5 years going strong! No reason to go back to eating animals because your health is better on a vegan diet. We also love the animals!

I'm not exaggerating when I say that Dave Asprey looks 30 years older than he did when he was on Joe Rogan's podcast 6 years ago.

My thyroid function has improved twice and I am on half my medication for high blood pressure. And I’m not even completely whole food yet!

[@TrojansFirst]

My 2 year old vegan since conception child contradicts everything Asprey says. We’ve been told he is a genius and he is very lean but not skinny at all. He’s heavy because of high bone mineral density. My wife and I would consume a big raw salad and then a whole head of kale every day years before conceiving and after conceiving until this day. Result? A super baby. Contradicts everything that lying sack of crap says

[@TrojansFirst]

We would cook the head of kale. Eat the big raw salad and then eat the head of kale cooked for the better bio availability factor. The raw salad builds the gut microbiome.

[@TrojansFirst]

We did the Dr. Gregor daily dozen but I think the most important thing we did was to consume those greens.

Here's my antidote about thyroid problems. My grandmother, my mother and one aunt were diagnosed with under active thyroids in their 30s or 40s. My other aunt was diagnosed with an over active thyroid. They are all omnivores. I'm 48, been vegan 6 1/2 years and my thyroid is healthy.

[@SGast]

But this is part of the problem. You have two interviews with people - one a doctor who knows what he is talking about and one delusional person - and it is now presented like just another difference of opinion. People like him should not get a platform to spout nonsense without anyone holding them accountable to the facts. Mic is doing a great job at that but not everyone is going to see his video.

[@nicholadeanewriter3499]

I’m now 39 years old. But when I was 14 years old. My mom decdided to to put the whole family on a vegan diet. We were on this diet for about 2 years. I can fully state now yes, it’s child neglect to force your kids to do that diet.

[@memofromessex]

That man is genuinely bonkers. I wonder if people went thru his different interviews and highlighted the changes in his anecdotes as he seems to mostly to picking them out of thin air.

[@breakmanradio2530]

I tried the vegan diet and I felt great for about two weeks and then I started having trouble sleeping, fatigue, and muscle loss despite still eating at least 0.5 grams per pound of body weight and not changing my workout routine. No noticeable change in the frequency of my angina (chest pains). On the other hand, the BP diet has given me more energy than any other diet I've ever tried, it completely eliminated my chest pains, and gave me an insanely low body fat percentage with steady gains in strength and muscle mass. Furthermore all my blood tests look better than they ever have before according to my doctor. I have higher good cholesterol, which is necessary for producing hormones like testosterone, and the lowest bad cholesterol my doctor has ever seen.

I would say force-feeding meat to children is child abuse. One must give a fair degree of autonomy to children including foods to make children healthy and teaching them the truth.

I absolutely love and respect your videos so much. I run a food blog and use Pub Med to debunk a ton of myths and answer questions people have about the plant based diet all the time. Using research/evidence based sources is the best thing we can do to help educate others. Keep up the great work!

[@citadelofwinds1564]

I had stiff knees for several years, making it hard to get up from chairs. After just two months on a vegan diet, one day I literally bounded out of my chair with no stiffness whatsoever, and never looked back. The bulletproof diet is an insult to intelligence, while there's plenty of evidence that a vegan or nearly vegan diet fixes so many health issues and can even reverse heart disease and diabetes.

Guys, Dave built a multi million dollar business off a fantasy (yak butter tea = health) and a Lie (coffee = mycotoxins) ...in short, Dave is a brilliant businessman. You don't have to like what I'm saying. _He graduated Wharton._ He has allegedly spent over $300,000 to "hack his own biology". *He is a master at using language to trigger people to get what he wants.* He clearly wanted to trigger vegans, and stir controversy. He did it. He's scraping for relevance after most of his meme talking points have lost favor. Dave is smarter than you think.
