Just last weekend, vegan ultra runner Catra Corbett took 2nd place female and 3rd place overall in the 186 mile Beyond Limits Ultra race in Southern California last weekend. She is 58 years old and has been vegan for 15 years.

Thanks for this info. Very inspiring. I'll be sharing this!

Another example showing that age is mostly not really a factor when you eat a proper healthy diet. I hear so many people saying and complaining how after age 30 their body no longer functions as good as it used to, all the while i'm 30 and functioning like a teenager on a WFPB diet. Then you have others running marathons at near 60. When you look at people who complain, , their diets are atrocious - predominantly fast foods, and even regular meat/dairy/egg based diets, they all have pain and some other issues at age 30, 40 and 50, some even with disabilities. It seems to be so ingrained into our society that when you hit 30,40,50...your health will go downhill naturally. Yet it's clearly false.

Fiona Oaks just blew me away! And all that she doesn't have a kneecap!!!!Total inspiration!

[@jimatsydney]

A friend dropped his 100 km running time by 1.5 hrs by going WFPB without extra training. Seeing this, encouraged me to go WFPB as well.

[@everybro01]

After seeing “running for good” about Fiona her story it give me the inspiration to do a short triathlon with the extra energy I had going vegan 1 year before, 4 years later finished a Ironman being 45 year old, (never doing something endurance before) no injuries during training and always the tank full of energy…. Met Fiona one time on a meet and greet on a veggie fest what a woman and inspiration.

[@lisengel2498]

I am really impressed by the beautifull attitude and High energy and love that Fiona Oakes shares with her great example of caring and gratitude and joy of running and helping animals 🌷💗

[@loriwilliams2167]

Just got Gemma's book!

[@VeronicaTorres-fm9ew]

I took on triathlon because of all the energy I had when going vegan. My students always say I have too much energy. They can't believe it's the food😁🤷‍♀️💪💪

[@johnremesat4464]

I would like to add a bit about a book called Born to run published in 2009 it talks about the Tarahumara Indians from Mexico. They run 430 miles in two days on a diet of only corn,beans,and squash.

[@gilliandunne6401]

Loved this one. Fiona Oakes is an inspiration!

[@mysticsuzi]

My mother died from polycythemia about 3 years after being diagnosed following a stroke and a heart attack. She did not really use her meds and died from respiratory failure, high blood pressure etc etc. Never changed her diet, no exercise, docs never talked about changing diet or lifestyle, so she died. She did drive thru Dairy Queen to get her Mama Burger, onion rings and shake a day. before she passed.

[@abegoldberg4030]

Awesome program! Thank you!!

[@sondrybehn4758]

Thanks for another great show!

[@stefbmccoy8297]

I have been binge watching these videos all week and realized I might run out of things to watch lol.

[@loradunn6209]

I am loving this new show

[@RenaWren]

I’m so excited for this episode!

[@pennylynch913]

Hi Chuck i need energy! In my 40s. Help. Thanx 4 your channel. Dr Barnard is great! 😀 i don't want to be a athlete, i just want to get through the day without feeling i've been run over by a truck!

[@lyndeelou2]

Very good episode.

[@mesere7]

Spinach is a superfood for endurance athletes don’t forget it in your smoothie it works wonders for recovery and avoiding/ reducing soreness also ginger helps

[@GreenBroccoli2]

Could please ask Dr Leon, what if an athlete has oat and wheat allergies, what complex carbohydrate would be an equivalent substitute?

[@dogdonut3]

I just cook small pieces of seaweed with my greens (kale, turnip, etc). They really aren't noticeable.

[@VeggieMagnifique]

Oooh, great idea!

[@dogdonut3]

@@VeggieMagnifique Thanks

[@Silvia-pv1ls]

I wonder whether the type of protein is really important. Whether animal or plant sourced, protein is broken down into polypeptides (short chains of linked amino acids) in the stomach and further into individual amino acids in the small intestine. Are there animal polypeptides that differ sufficiently from those derived from plants to cause ill health, or could the different microbiome composition that results from a change in dietary patterns be responsible? - My own health and energy levels have improved since I went whole food plant based.

[@fazendasaomarcos]

How about chaya among the top food? It is considered the leaf green with most protein that we know.

[@StephenMarkTurner]

I currently have the same brand of dulse shown at the 22 minute mark.

[@astidkalis]

36.50 I had also thought that, given organ transplants induce rejection, meat could also induce something similar.

[@scottiemiller7400]

My daughter has been diagnosed with Hasimoto's disease. She is avoiding soy and gluten. Is this going to help her and what else should she avoid? She went on WFPB and has lost 50 lbs and her husband lost 40 lbs.

[@PieraB]

I too got Hashimoto's because I was vegan for 15 years. that is what got me sick. Animal prodcuts are needed for hormonal health! Read the other side of this BS agendas.

[@debbimorgon2988]

Look up Dr Brooke Goldner MD all over the internet for healing from Hasimoto’s disease and ALL other diseases. She is a doctor who accidently cured her Lupus when she changed her diet. Others tried her diet and healed their illnesses. Worth looking into. All the info is free. Her books are Goodbyelupus and goodbye autoimmune disease. Won’t be sorry you did. Best wishes!

[@lindathorgersen173]

Can hypothyroidism be reversed after being on synthroid for years?

[@IoanaAAvram]

Oats caused me an immense amount of a acnee and I packed on pounds . I am 41 female.

[@luluandmeow]

What did you add to the oats? Did you put cow's milk or water? Add banana, apple, etc. instead of sugar. If you put on weight, eat less calorie-dense foods - calories still matter

[@sowmindful1501]

Oats alone will not cause weight gain, it’s what we add to them. What are you adding to your oats if I may ask?

[@IoanaAAvram]

@@sowmindful1501 thank you for responding. I swear to you I ate oats with water , nothing else added. My husband is my witness . That is why I am shocked and I don’t understand why heart doctors mentioned they recommend oats.

[@IoanaAAvram]

@@luluandmeow thank you for responding. I ate oats with water. Nothing has been added . No sugar no fruit. It happens I enjoy the taste but sadly it created lots of issues. I think it had to do with Carbs.

[@_josephbogdan_]

I eat steel cut oats daily. Soak over a cup overnight before cooking in the morning with water then add soy milk and frozen berries. Last thing it does is make me put on weight or give me acne.

[@Spock_Rogers]

Is Dr. Loomis any relation to Mildred Loomis?

[@emadfakhoury3546]

I must eat beans in order to avoid a drop in energy.

[@lilofee27772]

So researcher like Prof Tim Noakes is "bonkers" with his low-carb approach for endurance sports?

[@Spock_Rogers]

Is he promoting the consumption of dead animals?

[@k.h.6991]

Plant chompers has a great video on diet influencers and how old they get. It speaks for itself.

[@mesere7]

Totally bonkers

[@hridoygovindadas914]

Awesome message. But not really any new information. If you've watched 10 episodes of this channel, you would already know all this stuff

[@benjaminsmith1145]

You know what also increases nitric oxide? And it's free? Breathing through your nose!
