"There's a reason you feel bad": Oncologist Dr Lowndes Harrison

[@VeganLinked]

For the skeptics out there here is another video on how to eat to starve cancer: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZvOq5mbf99pbNE I plant to interview Dr Lowndes again as soon as possible. So, please let me know your questions under this pinned comment. The "Tim Kaufman" video is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJC3fX1rd7ulmK8 Dr Frank Sabatino video is coming soon and already scheduled as well as many more of course. I schedule these videos out pretty far out in advance now. I'm just implemented the membership packages for those who want to see some videos before they're released... Some videos sit for many months before they're released. :) I do all this solo and my own dime and time. I just got back from an 18 hour drive to Texas where I was gone almost 3 weeks and captured 25 more interviews and 7 presentations, next is Washington, then Virginia, etc... Prior to Texas I was shooting in Iowa, Chicago, Detroit, Ohio, etc... want to get to Boston soon and work my way down the east coast again. One way to help me keep the cameras rolling is: veganlinked.com/fundme/ But, subscribing, watching, sharing, commenting, and HELPING WITH THE HATERS in the comments kindly :) all of that helps! Thanks for watching!

My oncologist said diet has very little to do with my endometrial cancer. It was WRONG information. Then I met a lady in a clothing store who coincidentally had same cancer as me. But she had been treated in Boston using an integrated approach. They told her to go whole foods plant based with no added sugar, no added salt, and no added oils/fats. There were other differences in the care we got. She got told to reduce stress, exercise, etc. I was not told that. My treatment in a smaller city had been missing critical components.

So that would be too long ago i suppose. But I was very close during 9/11. That second plane flew over my head on my way to school. -I’ve been vegan for 10 yrs.

Fiber has absolutely no nutritional value and clogs the intestines. All the nutrients come from meat and absorbs into your system quickly. The first two weeks of carnivore your body adjusts to meat only with loose stools because it’s unclogging the system from fiber. I would NEVER take nutritional advice from a radiologist

Do you really think you know more than the totality of evidence i.e. American College of Lifestyle Medicine, Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics is the largest on organization on the plant of dietitians and nutritionist and state vegan is healthy for every stage of life, Medicare, Kaiser Permanente, WHO, etc even the American Cancer Society says: Notice they say "fiber rich" "A healthy eating pattern includes: Foods that are high in nutrients in amounts that help you get to and stay at a healthy body weight A variety of vegetables - dark green, red and orange, fiber-rich legumes (beans and peas), and others Fruits, especially whole fruits in a variety of colors Whole grains "Adequate intake of dietary fiber is associated with digestive health and reduced risk for heart disease, stroke, hypertension, certain gastrointestinal disorders, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers. According to consumer research, the public is aware of the benefits of fiber and most people believe they consume enough fiber. However, national consumption surveys indicate that only about 5% of the population meets recommendations, and inadequate intakes have been called a public health concern.

Studies have shown this to help reduce weight, improve BMI, lower body fat, and waist-to-hip ratio.[17] Cancer prevention: Some studies have shown that soluble fibers such as pectin have antioxidant properties and lower the risk of other types of cancer, including breast cancer.[18] Helps to live longer: Fiber intake is associated with decreased prevalence of diabetes type 2, coronary heart disease, stroke, and improved immune function.[19][17]

I went vegan for ethical reasons but the health benefits are undeniable. I thought I was in good shape because I exercised regularly and ate a “balanced” diet. I was a little overweight, had joint pain, asthma, and a fair amount of stress anxiety from a demanding career. The first 2 weeks were hard as my body went through a detox but after that everything changed all at once. In 3 months of going vegan my energy levels were off the charts, my sleep was better than ever, the extra weight melted, and my body reshaped, I noticed more mental clarity, and the biggest improvement is my asthma symptoms almost completely disappeared. And now my career and life is more demanding than ever and I have no anxiety. Like this man, I wish I’d been vegan from a baby. Did I miss meat? Yes, I missed certain meats for quite awhile but I just couldn’t bring myself to partake in that lifestyle anymore. Now if I smell any meat cooking it turns my stomach. I feel the vegan diet has completely transformed my body and has also improved my physical and mental health. My medical tests are great and I’m rarely ever sick. I come from a long line of family, on both sides, who die from cancer and heart disease way too early, and most become type 2 diabetic - and all heavy meat eaters. I love my family but it is difficult listening to them whine about all their ailments and daily pain and how limited they are as they shovel lots of meat into their mouths, all the while telling me how lucky I am that I have good genes and must have been switched at birth. And when I fill my plate they tell me how unhealthy I eat because I don’t get enough protein. 🙄 And the hilarious thing is when I bring dishes to family dinners, mine are the first to disappear. The whole food, plant based diet has come a long way and the food can be amazing and so fun to cook. There are some great, non-preachy people on KZbin who share amazing recipes for those who want to try. Just search “ whole food plant based” and you are sure to find some dishes that will make you drool. If you are looking for a way to feel so much better, give this at least a month. Get past the detox phase and your world will change and you will continue to improve. Whatever diet you choose, please do it as healthy as possible because life is a gift and should be lived at its fullest and not being miserable in our bodies.

Many people eating a typical NA diet are in their 80s and 90s. I've got to think genetics and the hand you were dealt is by far the biggest factor

[@VeganLinked]

Sorry to hear for your loss. Vegetarian tends to not be very healthy at all. And cancer usually starts many years, even decades before we know. Vegan isn't really a diet, it is a philosophy. But it happens to be the healthiest, most protective way if eating according to the totality of evidence is vegan, and that is a whole plant food exclusive diet consisting of beans, greens, grains, fruits, veggies, mushrooms, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices; and a variety of each. But this seems most protective when done from birth. Even still, there are many others variables at play such as stress, lack of rest, proper sun exposure, environmental toxins, genetics, etc. We can't look at any one person and deduce much beyond that isolated individual. We can only do our best to make the most of our inevitably limited time on this planet. It sounds like your wife was a very compassionate loving person and did the best she could for herself and others.

My family was so insistent that I eat meat and I have gone back and forth eating meat but I only felt good is when I was vegan. Well, now they are all dead and I really miss them, even my younger sister died. I’m 67 and they died when they were in their early sixties.

Does anyone know if plant based methionine have the same effect on “feeding” cancer as meat based methionine? Plants do contain methionine, so would one with cancer have to avoid all foods containing it?

[@VeganLinked]

Methionine is an essential amino acid, animal just has A LOT, too much sulfur containing amino acids

Great Video, are our cravings for some foods at times our bodies wanting certain benefits of certain foods

[@VeganLinked]

People crave all kinds of things that are toxic for them. A sophisticated palate is knowledgeable about what you acclimate to and acclimates to the healthiest foods. Then that's what you crave otherwise you might be just craving a bunch of junk food and animal body parts organs and secretions because you've been conditioned to those

I am already wfpb. What the best way to know if I’m getting enough protein? What is the optimal protein levels for 55yo woman? I’m active. I’m a cancer patient in remission. I work full time. I’m 135lb and 5 foot 2 inches.

[@VeganLinked]

You may want to ask your lifestyle medicine professional what is best for you specifically. It's my understanding. 8 grams per kilogram of your weight. But it's also my understanding we don't need to worry about protein as long as we are simply eating a proper variety of whole plant foods

[@franceschukwukere209]

Soy is complete protein but does not have methionine. What do you think about soy intake? It helped me a lot in menopausal transition, and thereafter.

[@VeganLinked]

No one food need to have high amounts of any one amino acid. Soy beans are very protective and the more whole the better and the longer you have been eating it the better, along with a proper variety of other whole plant foods. Methionine restriction is probably a good thing. It probably has Methionine but low amounts.

I’ve been a vegetarian for 25 + years, I’m 60 now and feel great, no need for extra vitamins. I meet quite a lot of stupid opponents and I ask myself why? Why are meat lovers so concerned about us veggies? Maybe because they know we’re right and they just can’t jump the steak. I started because I’m a fighter for animals rights and well being, the rest is personal profit. Great interview! My husband died from colon cancer and he loved meat sandwiches 😢

[@VeganLinked]

Wow, sorry to hear about your loss, please let me interview you. Where are you? If you're interested please let me know!

[@user-bv7mk8id5t]

I had a low risk cancer removed recently. I’ve been vegetarian for 18’yrs and vegan for 10 yrs. I’m seeing my doctors, but I feel like I’m a sitting duck waiting for this thing to come back. No one is really giving me preventative solutions, aside for my treatment that makes me gain weight, constipates me, prob making my vision worse, I’m an emotional mess as well, thickens the uterus too yay. This treatment gives me all the symptoms of menopause and I have to take this for 5 yrs. I don’t want to wait for cancer to come back even though they say it probably won’t. I need to know why I got this even though I’m considered healthy and active! I need solutions as well. But the medical system doesn’t offer that. They just say don’t bother to try to figure it out, you’ll never know why. Also how this is normal, but this is NOT normal! So do I just wait for this thing to come back? I wish my oncologist was wfpb or I could speak to this doctor. 🙃

[@VeganLinked]

Allium, cruciferous, mushrooms have some of the most potent anticancer compounds. Keep it a whole plant food variety exclusively, get healthy rest, exercise, love more and stress less. It's the best you can do. Sprouts and carrot juice may also be good...

[@user-bv7mk8id5t]

@@VeganLinked thanks! That’s what I’ve been doing, all of it! But stress and depression is still an issue, mostly now from the fear this thing could come back. My therapist is having me meditate and listening to affirmations. I run and I am finally able to lift light weights again, that helps a lot too. Green juice, oatmeal every morning, have to get better at growing my own wheat grass and micro greens. My sibling got me on Turkey tail mushrooms and maitake tinctures. I eat a lot of mushrooms too. I just find it frustrating that these cancers are considered so common Nd normal and that is enough for some of these cancer experts. I need more. But I suppose focusing on bettering my diet and mental health will be my answer to keeping cancer free. Thank you again! Great interview and information! Best 🌱

[@VeganLinked]

@@user-bv7mk8id5t sounds like you're doing the best you can!

[@mollypaintscows]

I’m experiencing the very same thing. My oncologist told me that even though the cancer will probably never come back she wants me to take the medicine. Why? She had no answer except to say “Just in case”. I’m asking myself why am I taking the prescription when there’s no proof that it will stop the cancer from coming back? It’s a gamble no matter what. Does she want me to take this medicine so the Cancer Society can add me to a data statistic? Plus, when reading the side effects, the side effects are just as bad. Sooner or later one or the other will cause death. It’s a quagmire. May God guide you to making the best decision for your life. ❤

I make and eat a lot of Fermented Veggies/Fruits....sea salt and quality water brine for ferments Sauerkraut...green and purple cabbage Kimchi Apple Cider Vinegar... Fire Cider Kefir Milk What are your thoughts on this... Regards from Sunny South Africa🌞

[@VeganLinked]

Awesome as long as you're not getting too much salt from those fermented foods, you could use vinegar instead. Salt is completely unnecessary and risky, you can get enough sodium from whole plant foods. But a dash here and there as long as you know how much you're getting is all you need, if you're preparing all the food that you eat you can properly monitor it then it's probably totally fine (too much salt can lead to hypertension and stomach cancer). It's great that you're doing fermenting tho!

[@VeganLinked]

Zero need for dairy. Especially if you have healthier plant options. Beans, greens, grains, fruits, veggies, mushrooms, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices exclusively and a variety of each seems to be healthiest, most ethical and globally sustainable ❤ I am not a doctor though so I'm just sharing my perspective since the doctor probably won't be able to respond to this comment. Check out nutritionfacts.org for more!
