Tati Westbrook Promotes a Terrible Diet to Her Followers

The lady who peddles $50 supplements? No way...
My thoughts on Tati Westbrook's revelation that she now eats an animal-based diet, as described in her video "I Was Making Myself Sick ... Q&A". Seed oils and gluten and microplastics, oh my!

I fell for this type of shit and stopped being vegan three years ago, after being vegan for five years. I’m vegan again now but I fell off because of hormonal issues and I felt desperate. But it’s so funny, I thought my “skin and hair and brain” were benefitting. But six months in, I was like… I’m still depressed, I still have ADHD, my skin and hair look truly no different and I still need acne face wash lol. So that’s when I started to realize veganism was not the cause of my hormonal issues and eating meat and eggs would not be the cure either.

Thanks for sharing this. I have a lot of hormonal issues and depression and I always find it laughable when somebody thinks, that food, meat and eggs in particular, would/could be the solution. Like my mother and grandmother have the same shitty hormones, it's in my genes. I only can do so much. I'm a omnivore since I was a child. According to all the anti-vegans, I should have been healed by now. Actually adding more veggies with every meal, makes me feel way better. Or staying away from dairy. I don't know if I ever can be fully vegan, but even I can acknowledge, that animal products are not some miracle ingredients, that will heal your from all your problems.

[@richardcardinale7152]

To think that such tinking is spread even more through a platform as big as Tatis is frightening to say the least

[@ASMRMagic]

I don’t necessarily disagree with a lot of what Tati was trying to say, but she can come off as a little preachy. I’m sorry she triggered you and I’m sorry that people haven’t always been kind to you about your illnesses, which are very real and obviously not your fault.

As a disabled person who deals with chronic pain and a metric ton of medical issues, constantly switching diet because you don't feel like a 21 year old athlete is wild to me. Like you don't wake up in pain and you have the energy to not only do all your cooking, housework, exercise, work and do a hobby all on the same day? That's like having a superpower from my perspective. Also, if your thyroid has packed in you need to take thyroxine. Not taking thyroxine with a dodgy thyroid is asking for trouble. I eat a pretty balanced, imperfect vegetarian and mostly vegan diet. I find sticking to a strict vegan diet to be too difficult at the moment, but a vegetarian diet works for me. I can manage that and stick to it.

[@pleh7019]

Same and I VERY MUCH agree. I remember what it felt like before I got sick. It obviously felt better, but you still have days where you don't feel your best. Healthy people get tired, overworked, underslept, stressed, sniffles, feel down for no reason. The line between normal and abnormal amounts of these things may be grey, but it's important to remind people it's OK to not be super human. Whether this applies to Tati, I'm not sure. She's always selling. Regardless, it's not a good message to spread, especially when the "fix," is false too.

[@jennoscura2381]

I am disabled too. I understand the struggle of being 100% vegan. Like you I am mostly vegan. Otherwise I am vegetarian. Sometimes I don't have the energy to prepare food. So I order a cheese pizza from Little Ceasars. There are vegan options here in Las Vegas. But I am poor and Little Ceasars is the cheapest delivery option. It's important that we don't beat ourselves up for not being 100% vegan. We are still making a huge difference. For some of us being 100% vegan is just too difficult.

In pretty much all of her videos, comment section is only an outpour of compliments - that includes the more controversial content she puts up as well, such as a the video in question or her product announcements. I understand that comments are often a cesspool and need to be looked at, but in this particular case it feels very manipulative.

We actually have a nap room set up with massage chairs, it’s very peaceful. I just started a daily 1/2 hour nap there to take a break from my screen and to avoid having to constantly make small talk with my coworkers (lol) Anyway, now I am addicted to the nap! If it’s getting close to my nap time I can start to feel cranky and tired! So, my point is, naps are addictive and the body starts to crave it.

I think her vitamins & saturated ft diet are silly. But I also felt like you were overly dismissive of her fertility issues. Perhaps you can't identify with her struggle if you popped out multiple offspring without obstacles. However, true veganism should include at least the same empathy for the suffering of humans that you have for animals

Tati is the epitome of someone that goes out of their way to do the most. She’s an extremist. She also strikes me as easily triggered. I used to like her, but she’s so dramatic and over the top.

Having thyroid issues myself (hashimoto) and taking l-thyroxin, it’s something I’ll have to do in an steadily increased Dosis for the rest of my life, because current state of science is that it will continue to destroy itself so the malfunction will only get worse. I can’t say for sure how this works with other thyroid diseases but directly saying eating xyz will basically cure something which is often an autoimmune disease to which science knows no real cure till this day is wild.

[@BornAScout]

I think people really need to reframe what "parenting" is. You can be a parent without having biological children, and that shouldn’t be considered a lesser option/last resort. Maybe it would stop people from obsessing/stressing so much over their fertility.

[@theotherkangaroo]

Saw Tati's video & saw the same issues you did. I am Christian & agree with you about being a good steward of everything, including our bodies so that we may serve others-- not for selfish purposes. Certainly not to waste money on supplements that have no objective testing that prove that any effective ingredients are actually in the supplement.

[@katfoster845]

Also, I am a Christian and your perspective on it is pretty much what my faith is. Help other people to the best of your ability. Obviously there's more to it than that, but it's the general principle. I volunteer with a mental health charity. I support people who are experiencing distress. I know a church that runs a centre for asylum seekers and refugees. They provide legal advice, support with asylum claims, free food, English classes etc etc. It's all open to anyone regardless of faith. That seems to follow the message of Christ more than spending loads of money on makeup and shilling useless supplements to an impressionable audience.

[@thatwasweird954]

And the thing is, the verses in Corinthians that talk about your body being "a temple" are primarily referring to sexual immorality. It has nothing to do with supposedly eating the "wrong things." The irony is her real problem is idolatry. She worships so-called perfect health and beauty. ("It is the most important thing to be healthy." What a weird thing to say. Not to mention offensive to those with poor health, at no fault of their own.)

[@Becky0494]

I think all of this is a reminder that we are all in need of prayer and God’s mercy. While your work is important and I’m glad you do it, there’s no need to tear down another person in the process (although I’ll be honest I haven’t watched her videos in years). We also don’t know what she does in her spare time. Just from this video alone, I think Tati seems… fragile, to say the least. We have no real idea of what her faith is like. We should bring all of this to prayer.

[@katfoster845]

As someone who is disabled and has chronic illnesses, I have tried everything and anything to get better. But guess what? Nothing made a difference besides sitting down with a RD and a nutritionist and just learning more about basic nutrition. It feels very privileged to sit there and basically say that you found your miracle cure but I bet in a few months she will have another one.

Oh my Lord, she doesn't seem to use prayer when deciding whether to scam people with her useless supplements. Anything to make a buck and it makes me wonder what she will be trying to hawk in relation to this new way of eating.

She's so bougie and out of touch with reality, quite frankly.

Yikes; I have hasimotos thyroiditis (hypothyroidism) & my docs have told me I’ll be on meds (synthroid) the rest of my life. Diet won’t help, lifestyle changes; nothing. The thyroid doesn’t work correctly - it’s not related to diet. People please don’t take advice like this from influencers.

[@jordynsophiamakeup]

My doctor said the same when they diagnosed me. I found other doctors for additional options & went gluten free,made lifestyle changes and it made a massive difference. Definitely get multiple opinions and see naturopathic doctor if you can

[@lilo_920]

Doctors always say that diet and lifestyle don't matter because they have next to no training in nutrition. And frankly, they benefit far more from people taking meds... so very little thought and research goes into exploring the effects of diet on certain health conditions. I mean, we are what we eat so it's insane to me that people often dismiss diet as if it doesn't really matter. It can make a big difference. As someone with an autoimmune disease and issues with a generally overactive immune system, if I had listened to doctors, I'd be on meds and not feeling much better. But I'm at a point where my conditions have been under control for years with a mostly whole food omnivore anti-inflammatory diet. I don't personally agree with Tati's advice, but I'm just saying... don't listen to doctors who say diet and lifestyle can't help.

[@repellentyeti91]

I guess I didn’t word my comment correctly. Of course lifestyle changes help literally everything. But diet will not cure hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, period. If your thyroid is making too little/too much hormone, changing your diet affects nothing. Of course you’ll feel better, but it’s not going to cure the issue if your thyroid isn’t working or is overworking. I’m happy for you guys that you’re not on meds. I’m on them, and they saved my life. I was rushed to the hospital at 16 because my thyroid was not working at all & I couldn’t walk. My lifestyle has nothing to do with it. My main point was to take advice from trusted doctors, not Tati Westbrook.

[@alexandrahoward3686]

Wanna know a super tasty vegan food? Tappenade. Make your own super cheap and easy! Grab a jar of pitted olives. Throw them in the food processor. Bit of salt. Clove of garlic maybe. Blitz it up. Spread it on toast. Goes great with tomatoes. Full of healthy fats and anti oxidants, and if you don't care about that stuff, it's really tasty! Buy your own if you don't want to make it. No matter what way you decide to eat, you can find stuff you enjoy and that's good for you. What Tati had was an eating disorder, and she feels better now because she's allowing herself more fat laden foods, not because she's eating meat. It's giving her more energy. It's so, so easy to feel extreme fatigue when going vegan because a lot of people also avoid fat and carbs because they're afraid of gaining weight. If you feel awful and fatigued, up your fat and carbs intake. Make a tasty tappenade and treat yourself. Look after your body. Treat it kindly, and stop worrying so much about what is and isn't "good" for you. It's just food.

Seed oils are nasty. When I was vegetarian, I used the taste test to figure out what I should eat so I fell to butter and olive oil. Now also avocado and coconut also. Butter is best. But after a decade of being vegetarian and it tanking my thyroid, I’m happily balanced whole foods omnivore. I do care about animals… sourcing them from good farms for quality food. I feel better when I eat saturated fat. More satiated. More energy. Just like my great grandma ate and she lived well into her 90s.

I watch a German KZbinr who has Endo and lots of food sensitivities which means she can't have many plant protein sources and besides all that, she tries her very best to eat as little animal products as possible. I appreciate that! It doesn't have to be going to the extreme carnivore camp, you can still try your best to minimise your impact on the animals and environment.

[@Jordan-nw4sj]

I have endometriosis and plant protein is totally fine. There’s a lot of pseudo science trying to sell people with my condition the paleo diet, claiming seed oils, plant protein and grains and gluten cause “hidden inflammation” that contributes to endo. I tried it for years and it was the worst diet for my symptoms, personally. I have talked with a registered dietitian and fertility specialist and both have said that there’s no evidence suggesting paleo is helpful for resolving the issues, and they both recommended a more Mediterranean style diet, plenty of vegetables and whole grains, whole fats, plant protein and some meat to fill it in. Obviously that KZbinr may have other sensitivities, but according to the experts and my own anecdotal experiences diet doesn’t cause endo inflammation.
