Stan Efferding Talks 'The Vertical Diet'

[@PG_FISHING]

Would love to see Stan on the Joe Rogan podcast.

[@max_performance_solutions]

A match made in heaven.

[@TheKbthakur]

mark should make it happen

[@TheKbthakur]

Joe is great but he always have such bad guests when it comes down to health and nutrition

[@BrandonofRedemption]

Yes, this would be fantastic.

[@DanGamano]

Let’s make it happen

[@OO-qt5ex]

He is primarily advocating consuming raw carrot throughout the day, to equal about 1 carrot total. The insoluble fiber in the carrot pulls zeno-estrogens/ excess estrogens from the body. He also advocates spinach, bell peppers, potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash and oranges. Along with unsweetened cranberry juice. I'm sure I've left out some of the veggies or fruits, but that's the gist. Each thing he advocates is for a very specific health reason and max digestibility. And he believes in bio individuality. If something doesn't agree with you, don't eat it. We all have to use commen sense.

[@johnpymn9869]

but again ,, lets not assume that somebody who took PEDS and got really huge is an expert in nutritional biochemistry,,hes just trying to sell a book. With someone dropping dead every 40 secs in this country due to a cardiac event I think its irresponsible for him to encourage young kids to eat a diet high in saturated fat, hormone injected cattle and poultry all the while trying to say that this type of diet helped him achieve his size and strength when it wasin the most part due to the PEDs.

[@BigJamesGraham]

@@johnpymn9869 stop! Saturated fat does not cause heart disease and Jeffrey Epstein didnt kill himself

[@humansnotai4912]

@@johnpymn9869 That is a very good point. I would say that almost everyone his size / strength has used testosterone. And you're right about the shit food we're all eating and the poor animals that provide that food. Wouldn't it be amazing if we could evolve to draw all our power directly from sunlight. Namaste x

[@Brii.Z]

@@johnpymn9869 Well this comment didn't age well. Another "anti-saturated fat" individual who hasn't the slightest idea on the importance of cholesterol rich saturated fat food. Ask yourself this, what do you think you'd find fridges filled more with in an average American household where currently 70% of the children are obese? Taking into consideration what the current prices are between 1 and 2 (2 being obviously a lot cheaper than 1), the food guidelines, the food pyramid, and the push to eliminate red meat from people's diets? 1. Steaks, Roast Beef, Eggs, bacon, butter, fatty fish (little to no fruits and veggies), and water 2. Fruits, veggies, cereal, breads, oats, pasta, lean cuts of meats like chicken breast & white fish, and fruit juices Take a hard look at 1 and 2, which one do you think sits in most house-holds? Now about that 70% obese stat again..

[@glendakay9895]

I saw a rhino rant talking vit D. I blew it off. My nurse practitioner suggest a test for me I was 10 points below normal so my body could not fight my cancer. Anyway, thank you. I would not have went to the doc asking about blood work. Thanks for helping me have more of a fighting chance.

[@japonicaren]

Glenda, go and look up the Chrisbeatcancer channel already. The interview with a 17 year oncology nurse and the resource links in the video info should be a good place to start. Also depending on your cancer intermittent fasting, keto and high dose vitamin C may be powerful tools. Dr Eric Berg is another source of good info.

Holly smokes! No offense (my ignorance) but I had no idea Stan has this amount of insight on nutrition! Rock on guys!

[@Fjerid]

When I first came across this diet, it made sense to me. But when I saw who came up with it, I quickly became judgemental and thought "meh, this meathead probably doesn't know what he's talking about". Now hearing him speak, I take everything back. The man knows his stuff on a deeper level!

[@niallrochford2218]

[@michaelrotondo6240]

try this for a few weeks before you make any judgements, dont just assume its bs. I didnt spend 100$ but its about my third week on this diet im down almost 8 lbs of fat, strength isnt affected and my blood tests just came back great. I dont think this is a long term healthy alternative but it sure as hell works

[@michaelrotondo6240]

Russkiy Eblan it’s not cutting carbs or juices lol did you even look at what the diet is. It’s eating a select high bang for your buck foods.

[@METAL__MECHANIC]

Problem is people don't want to do the work to see what works for them. I prefer keto most of the time. I feel great and find it most sustainable, but I like the research and anecdotal evidence in this diet and will try it on myself before making judgements.

[@polyfoxgames9006]

why wouldnt it be healthy in the long term? do you think the standard american diet is any better?

[@P_B___]

[@VincentS988]

The comment section on this video is horrendous.. “Brian Shaw eats X-amount of carbs” Are you Brian Shaw? Are you over 260 pounds? Do you train 5+ hours a day? Why are so many people comparing themselves to professional athletes? The Vertical Diet is a blue print. YOU have to adjust the calories to your body and physical activity level. You are not eating the same amount of calories as a Brian Shaw or a Dan Green 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@poachedwomb8009]

"i can't afford to eat steak seven times a day" "bro you're just throwing up a wall"

[@boogerz2000]

6:25 why does Stan not eat beef liver for Vitamin A? He wants to find a whole food source for everything as much as possible, but he opts for a supplement in this case, going with Cod Liver Oil. Is it just because it's easier and also contains a lot of Vitamin D and Omega 3's?

[@sfnlekal3342]

Excessive offal consumption has a high chance of causing gout.

[@CrocoduckRex]

I think he doesn't like the taste of liver. Nor do many people.

[@AB-vu3hc]

Cor Sair says he doesn't like the taste but advocates it. Tons of vit a in modern milk as fortified liver awesome generally though

[@adamnicholson3175]

Liver tastes like shit.

[@boogerz2000]

Personally, I just started eating beef liver again (the actual liver, no pudding, mushes, etc.) and while it does taste a little weird, it still has that beef taste to it at least. What I've been doing is cook it up, then slice it into smaller pieces then toss it back in for a quick stir fry with vegetables and my own hot sauce. Helps quite a bit, but even on it's own, I don't think it tastes bad.

[@korbandallas8931]

Id say weigh it cooked

[@matthewp5472]

Raw is most accurate, because people can cook out different amounts of water depending on how long the meat is cooked for.

[@cQ2DHPavXTqemm9Vsbgi4TV7x]

always weigh raw. ALWAYS. When you cook you lose water and render the fat, it's way less accurate. WEIGHT IT RAW

If fixing your thyroid was the key to fixing high blood pressure, then why don’t the majority of doctors suggest a diet that address thyroid issues? That’s because Stan is confusing high blood pressure (HBP) with hyperthyroidism, which is a cause of HBP, but only in like 3 percent of cases with HBP. Science has proven that high salt intake and red meat increase blood pressure, why people would rather take the word of a bro scientist over modern research is beyond me.

Traposaurus Flex Cholesterol from animals has been proven to increase disease risk. Just because his father got cured doesn't mean it works for everyone. Anectodes are not evidence dumbass. Why would you even listen to a drug user for health tips ffs?

[@spencelifts6469]

LJ certain studies may show animal cholesterol isnt good but unfortunately cholesterol is highly misunderstood and not always a good marker of health. Many other studies especially lately show that cholesterol is necessary for health, brain function and performance. The most ideal sources? Things like eggs and beef. What truly causes heart disease and all kinds of issues? Highly refined carbs, sugars and so on. If more people ate things like steak, butter, spinach, sweet potatoes and other whole foods and wild salmon whenever possible; people in general would be in a much better place. Obviously things like sausage and hot dogs or meats like bologna are not optimal, but just as not all carbs are created equal, not all meat is equal either. Another thing to remember is that the studies that demonize meat are not considering the rest of the subjects diets and the effects from those things as well as their lifestyles as a whole.

[@landonp.4073]

Spencer Clarkson You are on the right track but why not just eat all whole plant foods? Food is a package deal. Wild salmon does have omega 3 but also comes along with mercury and other industrial toxins passed through the oceanic food chain.
