DR greger let me begin by saying that I truly have no words to thank you.I am a physician and I have been following you for several years and what an incredible difference u have made in my life, my patients ,friends n family.I volunteer for a non profit around the world and I have shared this info with other DR's around the world . they too have started using WPBF as mainstay treatment for all patients with excellent results. with great love and respect 🙏

I'm 26 and an ER nurse. I read "How not to Die" two years ago. I went slow into it and am now fully into whole foods, plant based veganism. I cannot even begin to list all the ways your teachings and resources have changed my life. Truly, thank you!! I tell all my patients about your books. Every single patient and their families. Every day.

I went vegan when I turned 24, now 86. At that time I did not do it for health benefits but for the sanctity of life and reading Krishnamurti. I have relished the benefits this WFPB way of life has brought. I do not wear glasses, read voraciously, sense of smell almost too good, hearing seems fine. Nature and her gift of plants, nothing else as good. Thank you Dr Greger for an entertaining and humorous talk.

I went to the doctor today and got amazed by the power of this diet. My doctor said i had the blood pressure of a 20 yr old and im 53. Whole food plant diet is the answer to all our sicknesses I strongly believe now. 113/73. That was my first visit after 10 years of being on a whole food plant diet. I was prediabetic before i switched. Cant wait for the result. Thank you so much for all you do Dr Greger.

[@TheHungarianOak]

there is no single diet that benefits everyone the same way

[@bellxchat]

That's very true...seems to me it's a case of learning as much as you can about health, nutrition, exercise, etc. and then going with what works best for you.

[@chazwyman]

Congratulations but... Many people suffer from severe inflamation on this diet. Wheat and soya are key inflamatory agents as well as many types of vegetable oil.

[@abhayagarwal5097]

​@@chazwyman but that doesn't makes those things bad . Whatever stuff is in those things is something body isn't breaking down probably due to genetics ,bad gut microbiome and on going chronic health issues that are obviously going to get worse as they might be irritating the gut. Hopefully someone suffering from those things seek help of good plant based doctor and even Google how others overcame those issues.

[@abhayagarwal5097]

And then there are many more factors like proper nutrient intake , being active ,pesticides , staying away from refined foods . I honestly don't know how we are blaming plants only when there seems nothing wrong with them inherently and others do good on them.

I wish I'd known this before. All my life I'd been healthy. Mostly vegetarian, but I did eat eggs, or the occasional meats and dairy, including saturated fats. No issues. Regular blood tests, because parents were ill, and the only way to not scare them with regular tests were to make them for "everyone". Boring results. Always. The only time I needed a doctor post teenage was when I was pregnant. Then my ex had blood glucose in the stratosphere and got on a keto diet. So I did the same in support. For the first time EVER, my blood glucose, lipids AND liver enzymes showed up high. Stopped ASAP, but wasn't sure what to do. Exercised, ate "healthy" but without thinking through all this. Ironically, I even researched supplements and such for weight loss, but didn't think of research on diet. Was STRUGGLING to get back to normal. This makes so much sense.

[@missyfentoon]

25:01 hearing that changing to a more optimal diet at age 20 could extend someone’s lifespan that much was so inspiring! especially since i’m 19 lol. it’s sad how many of us young adults throw our health aside and i want to change that narrative, at least in a small way :)

I have not eaten meat for nine years. Started intermittent fasting two years ago, with only one full meal before 6:00 pm. Morning: one big mug of black coffee with one table spoon of dark chocolate powder. Mid-morning: Home-made soy milk boiled and mixed with black sesame and raw peanuts, one bowl of mixed nuts (Brazil nuts, cashews, pecans, macadamia nuts, pumpkin and sunflower seeds. Fresh blueberries and raspberry. Then go for an uphill walk with my dog for 40 minutes. Dinner around 6:00 pm: broccoli or broccoli sprouts, mushrooms, garlics or onions plus other veggies and some seafoods. My most recent biological age is 18 years younger than my chronological age. I’m in my 60’s. In addition, I do dumbbells everyday for 15 minutes and yoga 10-15 minutes. I read Dr. Greger’s “How Not to Die”, Dr. William Li’s “Eat to beat Disease”, Dr. Sinclair’s “Lifespan”. Most recently, I follow Bryan Johnson’s Blueprint with my modified version. Without prescription intervention, vital signs: blood pressure=100/60, SpO2=98~99, HDL=104, ApoB=88, Triglyceride=51, HBA1c=5.2, glucose=81, Insulin=5.2. Galleri Test: all negative. P.S. not only am I following experts in their 40’, 50’, 60’ and 70’, am I also paying close attentions to those who actually live to 100+ such as Dr. John Scharffenberg, Dr. Howard Tucker, Dr. Gladys McGarey and Dr. Wareham. It is important to have a reality check. P.S., I am feeling great everyday. The first thing in the morning when I wake up is to check my sleep quality. Then turn on my favorite music, then do yoga stretch for 10-15 minutes. Besides brisk walking 40 minutes with my dog, I do weight training for about 20 minutes, using four different sets of dumbbells, then two different weights of kettlebells to train my legs. I go to bed around 9:00 pm.

I've been a vegan for over 30 yrs. I have genetically high LDL. When I was a college senior, in chemistry, I gave a one hour seminar on the therapeutic affects of allium sativa. I always cook with garlic powder and saute garlic but when my husband was diagnosed with throat cancer ( never smoked), I started making both of us bread with home made hummus with chopped fresh garlic and a splash of good grade olive oil. Months before I tried a statin which only lowered my ldl a few points. After 2 months of fresh garlic daily, my ldl went down over 25 points. Triglycerides also went down and total cholesterol went down also. HDL has always remained high. My advice to anyone for prevention of disease is have some yummy fresh garlic bread every day . My seminar focused on cancer ( garlic acts like glutathione peroxidase ). But my two hour seminar, which originally included experiments relating to heart disease, had to be cut to one hour, so I chose the chemistry of allium sativa. EAT FRESH GARLIC. Maybe you'll be part of the group that it helps.

I was WFPB for a little over 11 years. Then early last year I was diagnosed with severe osteoporosis after having a fractured vertebrae. I didn’t fall, was not in an accident, so the only thing I can think was that I was training to become a yoga instructor and a lot of the movements are bending forward, compressing one’s spine. I was very healthy for those 11 years. During that time I went through menopause and had absolutely no symptoms or hot flashes and I attribute that to no animal protein in my diet. I have to wonder if the osteoporosis is due to not paying attention to my mineral levels. Regardless, for the last year, I have eaten meat, fish, and dairy. I am going to go back to primarily whole foods again, because I truly felt much better.

[@gregagregy]

plant based diets lower bone mass. So in longterm we could unnofficially say that it causes osteoporosis. This is due to antinutrients pulling minerals out of your bones. But if you feel better on plant based it is not worth to waste life with eating meat.

Maybe you have not eaten enough protein or exercised enough to support the healthy bones. Yoga is not enough.

It gives you a lot of comfort that what you’re learning is not only verifiable and accurate but you can go out and read/review the resources for yourself. He says he cites the bujeezus out of all his work and in his book. I love that about him!!!

[@extropiantranshuman]

oh me too. I can't stand when someone makes a claim and then you can't look it up. I was looking at his sources - they look pretty good. It's not like the sources that someone cites that have some bad stuff in it (well he has animal studies, but am glad that he backs it up with human ones - showing the discrepancies to point out that we're not lab animals. Right on).

I'm a couple of weeks into improving my diet - I already ate mostly vegetarian or vegan, with just a little bit of fish thrown in now and then, but now I've cut out most highly processed foods, and added legumes to at least one meal a day. The significant improvement in my energy and mood was unexpected, and I've started losing that extra fat around my waist. I also discovered that spicy lentil soup is one of my favorite foods! With the new energy, I found myself making further changes to add more vegetables, and I've significantly reduced dairy consumption without even thinking about it. I eat a variety of (plain, unsalted) nuts a snack most days. I feel GREAT! And in such a short time into this, one thing I've noticed also is that my focus is better; I'm less scatter-brained. ☺ I'm doing so well on this dietary change, that I don't really miss the calorie-dense unhealthy stuff I used to crave.

Eating 2/3 cup of beans or lentils to replace all animal and sea food sources of protein for 3 years and results are losing all used to be long hair, getting diagnosed with severe anemia, gaining weight and having crinkled old looking skinny face and losing 2 teeth due to frequent infections, frequent stomach problems and pains, frequent Unrinal track infections, blurry for days vision, back pain, low mood. That's only on the outside. Having to see several times per year neurologist, gastroenterologist, urogynecologist, hepatologist, neuroophthapmologist, endocrinologist, hemotologist, nutritionist and cardiologist finally told me to stop plant diet and eat all kinds of eggs, meat, pork, turkey, chicken. A year ago I started animal sources of protein as I can't have sea food, and I last time saw a doctor about 10 months ago. Thanks, but no, thanks! Home cooked animal sources of protein would be part of my diet, just no takeouts from cheap unhealthy American fried food and lots of hamburger buns places.

Some suggestions to assist the non-patient: read the transcript in the vid description, speed up the rate of speech, do something else to keep your hands busy while you listen...ie decluttering, dishes, folding laundry, driving, sorting papers, etc. I tend to do online window shopping...not reading descriptions or reviews...just seeing which stores have what I am looking for.....though cant look at the slides, but I tend to listen more intently while online window shopping. Re: transcription....it is machine generated so depending upon how well it picked up his speech....will tell you accuracy of the transcript. Most voice recognition software does a good job but it does miss huge swaths of speech and definitely doesnt get the humor...let alone correct punctuation.
