Hospitals, doctors offices and schools should be places where good nutrition is taught and provided not places that contribute to disease and obesity. It is crazy the hospitals are feeding people the very food that caused the heart disease, high blood pressure or cancer that they are treating. Every person in the hospital should receive some nutrition education before being released. Every doctor visit should be an opportunity to educate patients about how food choices impacts their health outcomes. The fact that doctors do not get nutrition training as part of their training makes no sense. Medicare and Medicaid should require nutrition education as part of patient care. Focus should be on food choices. Fasting should be investigated as a treatment for disease.

"If all the people would be healthy than how doctors going to make money?" that's why higher doctors and medical companies don't teach them intentionally.

This absolutely proves you need fish o a plant-based diet. It has already been shown in studies to be the very best diet.
@anonimogonzalezperez4951Ай бұрын
most people on earth does not eat fish in any form, it is the most unpopular dish of all, and, besides, most population have been living in places far from coast or even rivers in order to eat fish all days or even all weeks. It have been so since ever, and people is aparently quite healthy without fish in their diet, but with beans and greens (the principal ingredients by volume and calories in traditional diet in spain, for example, before industrialized cattle raising). So omega 3 from plant sources must bee good even for non vegans. I am not agree with the dha and epa supplementation thing with the doctor at all, apart from indivual circumstances.

It really does seem veganism is an ideology. It's not about health and nutrition, it's just about not eating meat and animal foods because it's "evil". It's good if someone comes to that themselves and goes through that whole thing (hopefully getting through it the other end) but it is no good if it's pushed on people and they are just blindly walking into it like a trap.

Dr. Peter Rogers on his KZbin channel says this is nonsense. You shouldn't eat ANY fat. None. You get enough fat from the whole foods, mostly starches, you consume.
@greensmoothieparty2 ай бұрын
Dr. Rogers has no clinical experience treating patients by offering nutritional advice and following their health outcomes for decades. His dietary theories are based on mechanisms and easily debunked with contrary evidence. His stances are more extreme than any other plant based diet recommending physician (including Dr. McDougall) and are very likely risky long term. I plugged his daily OMAD diet into Cronometer and it was shown to be deficient in several nutrients. Note that Ornish and Esselstyn are more cautious in their recommendations. Dr. Rogers does not follow his own advice about the importance of listening to physicians with decades of relevant clinical experience. Kind of odd, huh?

As children we can tolerate more abuse from the foods we consume. It's the years and years of abuse that breaks the digestive system. If you can't bring yourself to eat meat then you should try a low-fat diet with fish, eggs and raw milk included. Get out while you're relatively healthy.

On a vegan diet you likely need all of the vitamins, even those that the plant foods you consume'd contain normally because of all the anti-nutrients being consumed. That's the reason the diet doesn't work - malnutrition. I'd recommend more of a loose vegetarian/pescetarian diet that includes fish, eggs, raw milk if you just can't bring yourself to eat meat. Please get out while you still can, and know that you can still have love and appreciation for animals even if you'd consume them.
