The Longevity Blueprint: How Not to Age with Dr. Michael Greger

[@videoartsproductions1]

"Your going to have to smoke outside". Once main stream medicine starts pushing public health policies in the direction towards better life style choices we'll be taking steps in the right direction. Hospitals should be at the forefront of this cause, this doesn't need to be something we have to even debate anymore. The evidence is overwhelming that processed foods and consumption of animals products contribute significantly to chronic disease so it would be hypocritical that Hospitals continue serving these kinds of foods to their patients. We're very fortunate to have Dr. Gregor as one of our champions for the betterment of health and longevity. Thank you!

dealt with emotional eating, hormonal imbalances, and excess weight. the video featuring Dr. Greger's insights on aging resonates with my health journey. his dietary changes align with my own exploration for well-being. Aspect Health subtly played a role in my choices, much like the emphasis on plant-based eating in the discussion. today, embracing positive changes, i appreciate the shared knowledge on health empowerment. the video inspires gratitude for healthcare professionals and reinforces the individual's power over their health through a plant-based lifestyle.

Dr. Gregor. I do agree that everyone needs a plant based Doctor. As I was going to a normal physician and they were not pleased when I told them that I don't take these medications. Food is my medicine.

Dr. Greger statement about hitting that "tipping point" is spot on. That's so great to hear that Mayor Adams changed the food offered in New York City to make WFPB meals the default. His analogy about "having to step outside to smoke" is great!

Great information!! Thanks for addressing absorption of the plant protein we eat! I think of Dr. Brooke Goldner with her “green smoothies “ with massive amounts of dark leafy greens and ALAs each day to heal from autoimmune conditions and her own surgeries with childbirth.

I agree we all need access to a plant-based doctor. The problem in my area is that they are few and don't take insurance. So I am unable to see a plant-based doctor.

As for PROTEIN recommendations, doctors Stuart Phillips and Don Layman, both EXPERTS in their fields, recommend 1.2 to 1.6 g per kilogram body weight - especially as you get older, when you absorb and process LESS.

I’m 72 and weigh 192 lbs at 6’1”. Always hovers between 190 and 195 and don’t consume that among of protein daily. Resistance training 3 days per week with heavy weights at gym. Gonna start taking creatine and see what that does. These suggested amounts are way over stated

The focus on protein in sarcopenia is a distraction. One takeaway from 'how not to age' is that fiber intake is related to sarcopenia. And that's a nutrient most people are actually deficient in. In other words Eat your veggies, fruit, beans, whole grains and nuts &seeds. Yes, sure frail people are usually underfed in general and that includes getting too little protein, but your average overweight 70 year old, is better off focussing on diet quality than on protein.

[@jakobw135]

@@k.h.6991 Doesn't a good diet also include ENOUGH PROTEIN, from plant sources, in my case.

Well. Follow this channel if you want to look like this MD.

What are you implying, that Dr. Greger profits financially from promoting broccoli and blueberries?

Even children today have signs of artery disease. Fast foods and sugary drinks have long term consequences. There is an obesity epidemic today where over 60% of the population is overweight or obese. What is common today and "NORMAL" is not healthy. The average person today is not healthy and is taking medications. Heart attacks were once only common in people over 65. Today people in their 40 are having heart attacks. Add more plants and vegetables to your diet and less junk and overly processed foods

[@KJSvitko]

Health care costs are out of control. Going WFPB vegan can save money, pain and suffering from disease. Lower your chance of high blood pressure, heart disease and cancer by going vegan. 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.

One reason it’s difficult for Americans to act on your recommendations is your insistence on using metric measurements which mean absolutely nothing to the vast majority of Americans! Use ounces and pounds, etc. alongside your grams per kilogram recommendations for God’s sake!

[@glovesoffofficial1382]

Actually ; even if you eat an extra helping of celery; you'll still age.
