The 103 Year Old Vegan: Dr. Ellsworth Wareham | Loma Linda Blue Zone

Dr. Ellsworth Wareham has been working as a surgeon for many years. He went vegan many decades ago and since then, having retired at 95 years of age (!) he now resides in a blue zone - Loma Linda.
Aside from having adopted a whole food plant based vegan diet many years ago, Dr. Wareham mentions keeping a positive, optimistic attitude as one of the secrets for longevity.
This has originally aired on CGTN America TV in 2015.

[@JonathanDLynch]

"People associate age with wisdom, and I think that's probably unscientific..." Ironically wise words there, Dr. Ellsworth.

[@Michelle-pn9xt]

Just because an elderly person says something does not mean it is wise. I am not elderly, and I couild have told you that. Common sense. How ironic?

[@themamabearlife3339]

I agree that younger people can also have a lot of wisdom. Ironically though, a lot of people don't live his lifestyle, and it is good for them to hear. I have to say, that when I hear that someone is 100 yrs or more, my ears do perk up.

I am a quadriplegic 61 years old. In March I found a black spot on my foot. I went to my doctor at Loma Linda and they sent me immediately to the ER because I had gangrene. They did an oxygen ultrasound on my foot, it rated 2 out of 100. And they couldn’t find a pulse. While I was laying in the ER I decided to finally go vegan. Not 100%. But probably 97%. The 3% I get is from chicken stock, Parmesan cheese, and occasional piece of fish and once in a while I get a bean and potato burrito from Alberto‘s. For years leading up to this I’ve been praying to God for his help and slowly I’ve changed my diet. In the years before I eliminated milk and butter. Then I got rid of fast food processed foods and cut way back on meat. Stopped eating cured meat. No bacon no ham no sausage. And even with this I got gangrene. So I went vegan and in six months I went from no pulse in my foot to finding a pulse! I went from an oxygen level of two in my foot to29. In six months.

A majority of vegans ARE healthier, but that's because if they're sensible enough to care about what they eat, they're usually sensible enough to take care of themselves. Some omnivores believe what they eat is also beneficial to their health, but many omnivores don't care or don't have a reason to care, and will eat anything in any quantity, resulting in poor health and an early grave.

ανεμοδαρμένο γατί I agree we are part of the food chain, it’s just that the way we are killing animals isn’t humane anymore. It’s just a really mass produced murder house that animals are born in and never really get to live. It’s sad. A lot of the animal is put to waist as well, because meat producers don’t really need much of the animal except for the edible parts. Animals were once respected when killed and people were so grateful for them, but have now they have turned into our slaves and thought of as property. But this is my opinion and I will respect yours as well.

The thing is maybe meat is not bad completely, maybe it's red meat not fish and chicken and many people have eaten dairy, sugar and gluten and cooked meat in bad fats. There needs to be a test where people are put on a raw diet for a few months and then given white meat some once a week, some 2 and some every day and do the tests then, until then i will eat organic chicken and fish at least once a week and eggs may be one day a week too but i don't eat sugar, gluten, dairy and oils.

Ellsworth Wareham en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellsworth_Wareham#Diet - claimed "vegan" who died at age 104 - actually not vegan or even vegetarian, ate fish - also became an animal-foods-limiter in middle age - from the book The Blue Zones Solution: Eating and Living Like the World's Healthiest People, told Dan Buettner: "...at middle age, I decided to become a vegan. With the exception of an occasional piece of fish, all I eat are plants." - obviously ate a whole-foods low-sugar diet, dessert for example would be dates and nuts - "He avoided refined sugar and rarely ate out at restaurants unless he was ordering salmon." - obviously a confused person: "In a 2009 interview, Wareham described himself as a vegetarian." "In 2011, Wareham stated that he had been a vegan for 30 or 40 years but he did not remember the precise date." "In 2015, Wareham attributed his longevity to a vegan lifestyle." - Bible kookery: "He stated that this diet was similar to what God prescribed for the Garden of Eden."

Long life or short life is mostly genetic. There's also been people live to be 110+ that smoke, drink, eat saturated fats. I don't recommend such a lifestyle in general, but some people are going to live long and some won't. There's another physician on KZbin that is a vegan, very active fitness regimen, and knowledge about the body. He had arteriorschlerosis at 57 yrs old. His lifestyle is cleaner no doubt, but genetics is the main driving factor.

Wrong, the more we understand the subject, the more is clear that genes load the bullet, but it's diet and environment factors that pull the trigger.

This guy died in 2018, which is still pretty amazing for a vegan. The distortion with these types of articles is that a vegan diet is somehow superior to a vegatarian or low meat diet. However if you go to this site: www.bluezones.com/exploration/loma-linda-california/ And scroll down about half way, you will see the diet of the Loma Linda centenarians which is 10 percent dairy and about 5 percent eggs. This doctor is actually an exception to the average diet of centenarians. It's a propaganda piece for veganism which doesn't even try to be objective.

He seems a lot more mentally capable than other old People i've seen

[@fire7side]

@@floppa180 If they get that old, they are usually mentally capable. It still has nothing to do with someone eating a low meat diet being any better physically. Here's the clincher as far as I'm concerned, Japan has the most centenarians per capita of any country and they tested them to see if the meat in their diet was higher or lower than the average Japanese. It was higher in meat consumption. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/026010609200800312 It's a healthy diet, but to suggest it's more healthy than a balanced whole food diet is beyond a stretch.

No alcohol, who wants to live to 100 without enjoying a few glasses of wine a week?i also think it’s much easier to be positive when you live in such a nice and peaceful sunny environment. I live in the north west of England where we don’t even have a summer to look forward to, it’s really affecting my outlook and probably shortening my life considerably!

And the 110 carnivore..... Genetics.... My genetics are fucked from cross breeding 100's of thousands of years ago. People have lived over a hundred for thousands of years with all sorts of diets, fish, meat, fruit and grains. Some people are allergic to water.. It's a lottery so if you think you're going to live to 100 and more on any diet your very naive. My family's life expectancy is 70-90yrs. My friends is 90-110. Some are 60--70. Eat the diet your body best thrives on. Besides a vegans main goal is not eating animals and not to worry about longevity so I find this video pointless. Eat the diet. It sucks that we have killed billions of people through time for freedom and yet here we are trying to control people on what to eat and what not to eat. People literally kill each other over which diet is best. We need a world war 3 and fast to put this world back in check. We've all gotten a bit to comfortable taking our current generation for granted. Everyone is getting bored and the fight for survival is no longer there. People are less kind because there is no long a reason too. There isn't much to fear so it does leaves people disobedient. The problem is this new way of life has come to fast and through evolution it takes too long to adjust. I fear for future generations for what they will be going through.

Its the family and friends support that is helping this man not just a vegan foods. He was walking bent over and supported by his wife and saying he does not need walking stick and his joints are fine. Really Dr you are in denial.

[@misst.e.a.187]

I agree. Without a good family and social network (plus his professional life), his vegetarian to veganism may not have been so effective. Of course eating well, hydrating well and keeping an active mind all help. Plus some genetics.

For reference, Hong Kong consumes more meat per person (695 grams per day or about 1.5 pounds) than any other nation, with a life expectancy of 84.3 years, the world's highest. Meanwhile, India has the second lowest per capita meat consumption in the world, and the average life expectancy is 68.3 years.7 Aug 2018

[@alpacalover0]

There are very many other factors at play there. Hong Kong is a singular city and very wealthy so the logistics aren't comparable to other places. India is a poor subcontinent with high pollution and poor sanitary conditions.
