After I was diagnosed with cancer in 2007 a friend gave me a copy of the China Study. I read it. Became vegan. 16 years into eating plants. Best decision ever.

And this is consistent with the science. I can't stop you from being a part of a dumb, deadly and destructive experiment tho. So go try and enlighten some other fool.

My grandfather was a raging alcoholic until his 70s and did eat some meat, but as a kid I remember him carrying boxes of fruits and vegetables home from the markets. He always had a vegetable garden growing and loved hot lemon water. He stopped drinking in his 70s, lived until 92, and died without a wrinkle on his face and glowy skin. I've been vegan since I was 12 and am 42 now. I love - I mean, LOVE - vegetables, but my decision was purely ethical. My love for fruit and vegetables however, comes from my grandfather, and although he struggled with drinking for a long, long time, he never lost his passion for what he referred to as "real food."

I stumbled across the WFPB lifestyle in 2019 and went plant based literally overnight. We are so lucky to have Prof. Campbell (and many more), a giant of science, biochemistry and nutrition, shining a light on the multifaceted, densely layered pathway towards health and wellness (not disease), for a lifetime (🤞) by simply eating lots & lots of different plants. The research of Prof. Campbell and others suggests a WFPB diet is the most appropriate source of energy for humans, other herbivores and the 'magic bullet' to save the planet from the disproportionate effects of 7 billion extra mouths. Question: How many people eating a WFPB diet will it take to influence the effects of Climate Change?

[@VeganLinked]

Today's release, the world renowned scientist + long time vegan Dr t Colin Campbell. I love talking to this man so much! Special thanks to National Health Association 💚 The first time I ever heard anything about this man was in 2011. I had just went vegan earlier that year and didn't know any other vegans yet. I was running my business neofilm and had a customer call me to do a video interview for their product. I drove out to South Carolina in the middle of nowhere and parked on the side of the road near what appeared to be nothing more than woods. There was a tractor with a thumb on it that they wanted me to video. The man who owned the tractor was their customer. When we got done doing the video their customer asked if we wanted to take a ride through the woods to see his place. So we took a ride through the woods to the back of his home where he had a runway for his plane and helicopter. This dude was super rich! He apparently retired after he sold off his rubber manufacturing business, not condoms but rubber material... This man was a much older man and he appeared to be in very good health. Somehow the topic came up that he and I are both vegan. I was surprised and excited to meet my first vegan after going vegan. He said he went vegan many years prior upon reading the China study. At the time I had never heard of the China study. This older man said he had cancer and was able to treat it from what he learned via this book. About 6 or 7 years later I got a chance to video him doing a talk in Charlotte. It wasn't a very good location though to capture him. So we spoke a few times before and after around that. Then I videoed him again in 2019 speaking at plant-based world expo in New York. That video got me in a little trouble though that I was able to get out of because I was in the right. They had nothing to do with the doctor or me or anything we did, just Fourth party nonsense. I think we crossed paths a time or two since and then finally I had this opportunity to get him in front of my camera for a bit at the National Health Association annual conference. In retrospect I wish I could have talked to him about so many other things. But when I do these interviews with speakers at events I try to be careful to not use up too much of their time especially if they've been traveling a lot. It's so incredible seeing this 90-year-old man traveling around doing talks and still writing books. Got to love the plants and passion !

[@VeganLinked]

Dr. T. Colin Campbell has discussed his exposure to Agent Orange during his service as an Army officer in Vietnam. He was stationed in areas where Agent Orange, a herbicide used by the U.S. military during the Vietnam War, was heavily sprayed. Campbell has recounted his experiences in interviews and writings, mentioning that this exposure influenced his understanding of the relationship between environmental toxins, diet, and health. Agent Orange contained dioxin, a highly toxic compound linked to various health issues, including cancer, birth defects, and other long-term diseases. Campbell's experience with Agent Orange contributed to his broader interest in how environmental factors and diet influence health and disease outcomes. This personal exposure likely provided additional context and motivation for his extensive research into the effects of diet and environmental factors on health. Dr. T. Colin Campbell is a prominent biochemist and nutrition researcher renowned for his extensive work on the relationship between diet and disease. Here are more details about his background, career, and contributions to the field of nutrition: ### Early Life and Education - **Background**: Dr. Campbell grew up on a dairy farm in Virginia, which initially influenced his early views on nutrition and diet. - **Education**: He earned a B.S. degree from Pennsylvania State University, a master's degree, and a Ph.D. in nutrition, biochemistry, and microbiology from Cornell University. ### Career and Research - **Academic Positions**: Dr. Campbell served as a professor of nutritional biochemistry at Cornell University for over 40 years. He has also held various positions at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Virginia Tech. - **Research Focus**: His research has spanned a wide range of topics, but he is best known for his work on the effects of animal protein on cancer and chronic disease, the benefits of plant-based diets, and the role of nutrition in health and disease prevention. ### The China Study - **Collaboration**: The China Study was a collaboration between Cornell University, Oxford University, and the Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine. It was one of the most comprehensive studies on diet, lifestyle, and disease ever conducted. - **Findings**: The study examined dietary habits and health outcomes of thousands of people in rural China. It found strong correlations between animal protein consumption and chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. Conversely, diets high in plant-based foods were associated with lower rates of these diseases. - **Impact**: The findings of The China Study have had a significant impact on the field of nutrition, promoting the benefits of plant-based diets and influencing dietary guidelines and public health policies. ### Publications and Advocacy - **Books**: Dr. Campbell has authored several influential books, including: - **"The China Study"** (co-authored with his son, Thomas M. Campbell II), which presents the findings of the China Study and advocates for a plant-based diet. - **"Whole: Rethinking the Science of Nutrition"**, which critiques reductionist approaches in nutritional science and emphasizes the importance of whole foods. - **"The Low-Carb Fraud"**, which critiques low-carbohydrate diets and highlights the benefits of plant-based nutrition. - **Documentaries**: Dr. Campbell has been featured in several documentaries, such as **"Forks Over Knives"**, which explores the health benefits of plant-based diets. ### Honors and Recognition - **Awards**: Throughout his career, Dr. Campbell has received numerous awards for his research and contributions to public health and nutrition, including the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American College of Lifestyle Medicine. - **Influence**: His work has influenced a generation of researchers, healthcare professionals, and the general public, advocating for a shift towards plant-based diets for better health and disease prevention. ### Personal Philosophy and Advocacy - **Philosophy**: Dr. Campbell promotes a holistic approach to nutrition, emphasizing whole foods and plant-based diets. He challenges reductionist approaches that focus on individual nutrients rather than dietary patterns and overall lifestyle. - **Advocacy**: He is an advocate for public health policies that support plant-based nutrition and has been actively involved in educational initiatives to promote healthy eating. Dr. T. Colin Campbell's research and advocacy have significantly contributed to the understanding of the relationship between diet and chronic disease, highlighting the potential health benefits of plant-based diets. His work continues to inspire and inform public health strategies and dietary recommendations worldwide.

Wonderful interview, Dr Campbell is a living legend, he is absolutely right when he says that people who eat animals have been deceived into thinking that it is not only good for you but essential for your health, when nothing could be further from the truth. As he said, eating plants instead of animals would change the world. As a very proud vegan, it is very frustrating to me when people who would really benefit from eating an EXCLUSIVE plant diet are completely deaf to the idea,even going vegan out of compassion for other sentient beings, these people would amazed at how good they could feel if only they had the integrity and courage to change.

@@denisebutkus3901 eating fish is harmful to humans, whether wild or farmed. Mercury, PCBs, fish can accumulate thousands of times the level of cancer causing PCBs found in the water in which they live. As well as other harmful toxins from polluted water. Fish are smart,have distinct personalities and scientists who study pain are in complete agreement that they experience pain in the same way as mammals and birds. More fish are killed every year than any other animal, fish are intelligent, complex animals that are crushed,impaled,suffocated or cut open and gutted all while they are fully conscious. This is morally wrong and unacceptable, totally unnecessary when one can choose from thousands of wonderful nutritious delicious healthy foods that don't deliberately cause suffering and death to anyone . Watch "SEASPIRICY" well worth your time !

@@denisebutkus3901 watch "seaspiricy" see for yourself how fish suffer. Fish are intelligent beings that feel pain as much as all living beings. They are crushed,smothered, electrocuted, chopped up and gutted while still alive. Because of the water pollution in the wild or in fish farms they are full of PCBs, mercury and other toxins which cause cancer in humans. Fish are not healthy to eat, fish suffer horrific cruelty when caught by humans. This is 2024, there are thousands of wonderful nutritious delicious healthy foods to choose from without causing suffering and death to anyone.

They even told him that he could stay hydrated on soda.it’s really unbelievable.

[@VeganLinked]

Sorry to hear this. Unfortunately Doctors aren't trained in nutrition or implement it well at all. There's been a lot of work done with Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine to change that and the American College of Lifestyle Medicine as well. Best wishes with your brother. I think also doctors don't have a lot of time to spend with patients and they have too many patients. And a lot of eating problems are emotional related so it requires more than a primary care physician to ultimately help somebody get on track. Maybe check out True North! Or eat to live retreat with Dr Joel Fuhrman. That's what I would do if I had cancer.

[@andreafong9952]

As a carnivore, I can respect this doctor for what he has done and him as a whole. I will continue to live the way I do, but I will always be open minded to the opposite side. I’ve just happened to land on what works for me.

[@VeganLinked]

you are not a good experiment though because you don't have a clone of yourself going vegan to compare. You haven't been carnivore long either and the problem with it is people who have problems may be trying this not knowing that what they're doing is just another "elimination diet". All fad diets have anecdotes boasting their success. Yet, 95% of diets fail. And then a new one comes to take it's place like weight watchers, atkins, paleo, keto, and now the last ditch death based fad diet effort carnivore which is really necrovore. you're just doing a dangerous experiment fad diet. They get transient results all for similar reasons. Losing weight alone can appear to solve a lot of problems but if your means of losing weight is unhealthy it wont be doing you favors in the long wrong. Only eating animals you're not going to have a glycemic spike but you will probably still have insulin resistance, again not good in the long run. Maybe there was a particular food you were allergic too, not figuring that out and ditching all the healthiest foods for something that is going to increase your risk for chronic disease (something that takes time to develop whether you realize it or not) and all cause mortality. Clearly vegans are doing profoundly better. We have longer time vegans, lifelong vegans, multigenerational vegans, National Health Association that just celebrated 75 years last year, American College of Lifestyle Medicine that is evidence based and of course plant based, Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine with thousands of doctors, Plantrician Project, Hypocrates Wellness, NutritionFacts, Ornish Program Medicare funded for non invasive treatment of cardiometabolic diseases, TrueNorth, support form the largest health organizations in the world, etc... Carnivore has nothing but anecdotes, stories, n of 1, like every other dead end diet scam. Get away while you still can! You seem like a nice person. Stay here for a month, I'll get you right ;)

[@Oblisk]

@@VeganLinked I appreciate your kind gesture. Like I said, I’m always open minded, but nothing has made me feel better than eliminating everything else other than meat. Running on ketones for my major fuel has been tremendous for my mental health and well being. My body composition has improved as well, even though I was never overweight to begin with. My acne that I’ve suffered with for the past 8 years of my life has finally been put away. And yes, it’s n = 1, but aren’t we all unique biologically person to person? I’ve never gone vegan, although I did a whole food diet that balanced out my meat and plant consumption. All organic high quality ingredients, made everything from scratch from home knowing all what I was putting in my body. Had ups and downs and never quite stabilized to the baseline that I feel today. If vegan works for you, thats great! But I don’t plan on going vegan anytime soon unless my life was truly threatened by my lifestyle. It’s not a diet for me.

[@maplin007]

You got one thing right nobody knows how any diet will go long term, you might just die on all of them, the vegan diet doesn’t have long term experiments same as any other, there are 40-60 year carnivore proponents just as there are vegans but nobody has been locked in a lab from birth. Vast majority of people have eaten meat for at least their childhoods, claiming switching to plants does anything is unfounded, lack of protein in their formative years has effects that can never be made up for including ability to put muscle mass on. This is well known.

​@@PlantBasedPrimary Long story short, if you want, join, become a user, then you can add listings and events to build your community and help me build a vegan world :) It's been hard to manifest the direction the way I really want but it's getting closer enough... Future interviews will be progressing in a very specific direction that I'm extremely excited about. I want the website to be a tool for that and beyond. It has some issues I'm working on but nothing you need to be concerned about; the core functionality of joining is there. The issues are more feature related. I'm about to get into the homepage laid out completely different hopefully soon. That's more last minute aesthetics though. If I had a budget and help I would just pay someone to develop it fresh precisely like I want. But, instead I've endured the longest hours and days and weeks and months at a time intermittently over the years working on it. Only a handful of times though for this particular project (which is now my only project). And each time I get closer and closer to where I think it's going to be good enough soon. Right now it's a Geobased membership directory for vegans. It's organized by Professions, Organizations, Places, Shop & Learn, Posts (recipes, science, and stories), and has a Forums. The Posts section and Forums are new. They're ready for people to play with and I'll be fixing the design more and more over time until I can't anymore, which may be soon because I have to get back to doing interviews again. I've been on it hard this time around since April 4th everyday. I was trying a completely different alternative for users and started this on a different site more aggressively focused on what I want to ultimately dive into next with all this. But, I'm going to try and keep everything on VeganLinked.com first. I could go on and explain more, very much more. Just know it's coming together, slowly but surely. If something seems off I probably know and I may already be working on it. But of course tell me if you can and would like. Otherwise I'll eventually get around to it. A few things bugging me will hopefully be fixed in the next week. And hopefully I can get to the homepage and be done for now. If I get it where I want it then I'm going to be really excited to share how it can be used. I'll be able to make quick videos on this for someone specifically and eventually I'll make videos a little more polished that showcase how the site may be used. Pheewww, i need to go to sleep! 12:22 am and I hardly slept last night! But yeah, join, get others to join, but start with one or two people you know slowly. Right now the events have all expired. So, it would be great to see some events on there. When you join you become a user with a profile. Your profile showcases your work on the site. And whatever posts and listings & events you add show you as the author and if it's for someone else they may claim it at which time they become the author. Listings can be linked together after they're created which is cool. It's like getting VeganLinked. I call it cross linking. So, a user may add a listing as a professional, organization, add a few events, and link those together as they like. And you can choose to hide address. And everything is still geobased but hidden addresses don't show on maps just appear in archives for local searches, but not "near me" searches. So, it's all tight. An organization or person may have groups or organizations or chapters in other locations and events and they can all link together and eventually this can lead to me showcasing certain active cities on the homepage, certain categories, and when someone searches now, like if you look at Maya's and search from there you're now searching in Texas, so it pulls you into the location and not all the time, just some of the time. And I'll change how that behaves as the site becomes more populated. Anywho, I better sleep! Thanks :)

There are vegans who have been longer than you've been alive and even lifelong and multi-generational and we don't have your issues. Perhaps you should learn how to eat whole plant foods properly instead of supporting the most violent industry, the most atrocious living circumstances for animals that inevitably results in concentrated animal feeding operations of which there are over 200,000 in the US alone that are toxic to surrounding communities, leading cause of deforestation, desertification, aquatic dead zones, species Extinction, antibiotic resistant bacteria, deadly pathogens and zoonotic diseases that kill millions of people, and ultimately increases your risk for chronic disease and all cause mortality which insidiously develops over time but you're getting your death-based last-ditch effort fad diet transient results instead of learning how to eat properly because you would rather be stuck in stupid and perpetuate your infantile habituation for body parts, organs and secretions. You can do better than this.

I would love to hear him address why so many carnivores are professing marvelous results.I was gonna do carnivore but now I think I'm gonna try plant-based instead. Terrific video!

[@VeganLinked]

This has been addressed multiple times across my channel By various people such as Dr Garth Davis and Dr Martica Heaner for example and many others. Essentially all fad diets have anecdotes boasting about transient results despite Diets having about a 95% failure rate. The carnivore diet is a last ditch death-based fad diet after the failed Weight Watchers, Atkins, Paleo, Keto Craze. All of these are what we call elimination diets. They result in weight loss that ultimately results in good health outcomes but tend to be only transient in nature and don't consider long term disease risk. This is why studies say eating animals increases risk for chronic disease and all cause mortality. Chronic disease is insidious. But when somebody goes on an elimination diet they drop weight fast typically and they experience physiological changes that appear to be beneficial. You can lose weight in all kinds of dangerous ways and have the same result. It makes most sense to lose weight in a way that's going to be sustainable in the long haul, going to give you the best health outcomes in the long run, and why not take advantage of the fact that a well planned vegan diet does this but also doesn't contribute to the most violent jobs on the planet, most atrocious living circumstances for animals that inevitably results in concentrated animal feeding operations that are toxic to surrounding communities, the leading cause of deforestation, desertification, aquatic dead zones, species extinction, antibiotic resistant bacteria, deadly pathogens and zoonotic diseases that kill millions of people. So essentially there's every reason not to eat animals and every reason to be vegan :)

[@VeganLinked]

It's so beautiful that you are considering this option. Please reach out if you have any questions. I like to suggest learning how to properly shop and prepare these Categories of food. That is legumes, greens, grains, fruits, veggies, mushrooms, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices and a variety of each. From these 10s if not hundreds of thousands of edible whole food vegan options are there for you to choose from And tailor your diet to your specific desires and needs. If ever you do feel like you need help with this please consider getting Help from a nutritionist, dietitian, or physician that practices lifestyle medicine. As a vegan you will find a way to make all this work. But if you're just treating it like it's a diet then you might not endure the learning curve or social pressure and just end up following what everyone else is doing even if it's off a cliff :) Vegan is not something you try it's something you do. Hopefully it's something you do! :) Thank you so much for being genuinely curious and listening with an intelligent open mind!

[@Yodaismycopilot]

@@VeganLinked Thank you for your kind and thoughtful reply. Yet being an early adopter does not necessarily make one a faddist. I'm no nutrition historian but the great internet interest in carnivore seems more recent than keto, paleo, Atkins, etc. Jordan Peterson went carnivore and, at age 61, says his body feels like he's in his 20's. I realize that's anecdotal but he strikes me as both serious and honest. The sheer numbers of KZbinrs raving about various positive outcomes on carnivore is pretty compelling. I'm finding nutrition to be a very complicated and extensive subject. Very challenging for someone not academically studied in biochemistry and physiology. But I'm determined to increase my knowledge. I am a tad concerned about too many carbohydrates and phytotoxins with a plant-based diet. Not a deal breaker at this point, but a couple of examples of my trepidation. I love brussels spouts and lentils, but not a fan of sweet potatoes. And I've seen that vegans are supposed to embrace "starchy vegetables." I enjoy cooked spinach doused with vinegar, but not kidney stones. I like cooked barley, but it's full of gluten. Brown rice contains arsenic and white rice has way too high of a glycemic index. A lot to consider...

[@VeganLinked]

@@Yodaismycopilot yes Carnivore is more recent which is precisely why I said it is a last ditch effort after the failed weight watchers, Atkins, Paleo, Keto craze. Jordan Peterson is out of his lane and is not someone you want to follow for nutritional advice. He's got a lot of loose screws and I can't even understand why anybody would follow him. The man is an emotional train wreck Gibberish generator. I have Many many relevant physicians, scientist, and longtime vegans evidencing not only the efficacy but awesome potential with a well planned vegan diet. Or I have the science on my side. There is literally zero science supporting the carnivore movement. Every fad diet has anecdotes. You understand this right? You are not saying anything to justify abusing animals and ingesting their bodies. And Jordan Peterson is nothing more than a short term anecdote and a disgusting one at that.

[@VeganLinked]

@@Yodaismycopilot If you're gonna get carried away by anecdotes Then you might as well run with the ones that are consistent with science and far more significant. I have astronomically more significant anecdotes on my channel. Far more long term and even older than him. Have a lifelong vegan on my channel who's in his 70s. This man has never had any health issues. I don't know why anybody would want to follow someone with so many issues thinking that person has answers instead of following people who have never had these issues. I use to smoke cigarettes. Instead of looking at people trying to quit who were failing I emulated non smokers and quit instantly as a result.

[@lanazak773]

​@@VeganLinked I was abbreviating vegan or vegetarian. I live in a place with factory farms and hunters, and eat meat because I always have. I tried to go all plant food for a few months but had a lot of digestive issues. I like a lot of "plant-based" food (rice, beans, oat milk, other grains, greens, fruits, and vegetables) and eat it anyway even if I am the "odd man out". I just haven't cut out all of the animal products yet, but I'm moving that way because it doesn't seem healthy. I like cheese and cream and usually have one meal a day of beef, poultry, or fish. There is a lot of push online for keto and carnivore and a lot of talk online and elsewhere of why we can't get enough protein without animal protein. Even my sibling, who is a registered dietician, says we need it. So I am happy to hear that we don't need animal protein from a rational person with research and life experience who has worked with other scientists at various universities and in other countries. I have heard of The China Study but not read it. I do follow The Starch Solution to some degree because I like Dr McDougall's theory on how normal people eat mostly starch and plants all over the world and don't have first world metabolic problems the way Americans do.

PROPS to Dr. Campbell! ☺️

[@amoh5]

Dr T Colin Campbell was one of my first scientific medical references for substantiating a vegan whole food plant based diet for me 14yrs ago. As a Christian vegan, years later I found biblical knowledge in the book of Genesis where God says to Adam and Eve, "I give you every seed-bearing plant, herb and fruit for your food" making them vegan. There are many other Old Testament and New Testament scriptures that also point to veganism especially to the apostles themselves. There's also literature on veganism among the apostles by the 1st century Church fathers Polycarp, Eusebius and others. It's too much information for me to type out in this comment. But there you go, it's been a gradual revealing journey for me. 😊

[@annelewis7435]

I would love to read those passages if you don't mind listing them for me in the New Testament. All I can find is in Timothy that says we can eat everything and what matters is what comes out of our mouth and not into our mouths. I've also found Jesus fishing with his disciples and feeding the crowd with fish. and the prodigal son comes home and they kill the fattest cow for a celebration. who are those fathers you are talking about and where is it written for me to look into?

You might consider some recent forensic research on Egyptian mummies which indicates most were strictly vegetarian. The rich being the greatest exception and exhibited shorter life spans. They had lived for an unfathomable amount of time by the laws of Ma'at which embodies respect for all sentient beings. Animism. Moses was exiled as an apostate, murderer and sorcerer. He and his followers engaged in animal sacrifice. To this list of crimes may also be added plagiary as Moses could recall but 10 of the 42 laws of Ma'at for his posterity. Egyptians mostly lived along the Nile and did not molest the fish.

[@BowenUSA]

It is so funny how close this interview is to Isaiah Chapter 1. We are all sick from head to toe because we worship the wrong thing, in this case, protein. The Divine is so tired of the barbeque. A proper sacrifice is a broken heart and a contrite spirit, laying down one's life for your friends by stopping the animal sacrifice. Loving God for the Good Orderly Direction and Loving the neighbor by being kind to all members of the creation.

@@BowenUSA That is also my thought. Jesus or the Savior upsetting the temple wasn't just about merchants and priests selling indulgences in God's house. . It was really about the awful stench of the barbeque. Flavius Josephus is on record describing the gurgling of the pipes leading from the sacrificial pits in Herod's Temple into the desert beyond the city walls. Protein is the art stealing the life force of others. For most of us this is both unnecessary and avoidable. Just to add a little more meat to the bones of your contention.

What about bone density as a vegan? My sister (40 year vegan) has disintegrating bones.

[@VeganLinked]

That's a good question. Thinking about stuff like this one quick and easy way to rectify any blame on veganism is to consider the fact that doctors who treat these diseases are sustained by non-vegans.

[@VeganLinked]

But from my layman understanding of things, bone density is not solely a factor of diet. Veganism has nothing to do with bone density. Veganism is a philosophy. Bone density, as far as I understand, is developed through a combination of things such as certain types of exercise that creates micro fractures and prompts the building of bone, Sunshine for vitamin D, and a well-planned diet. It doesn't matter what diet you're on if all of these variables are not in sync. Veganism really doesn't have anything to do with this but in a way it does. It does because humans are animals too and we care about not hurting sentient animals. So as a hardcore vegan I want to make sure vegans are healthy as f*** and all humans which is why I started this channel. And when I mean healthy I mean in every way, for example I like to consider things such as the six pillars of Lifestyle medicine. It's very important to consider all of these variables in respect to all diseases essentially. With lifestyle medicine its social support, stress Management, exercise, sleep, not doing drugs, and of course nutrition. And because lifestyle medicine is evidence-based it's plant-based. So if I were you, or your sister, I would consult with a lifestyle medicine practitioner. Implement a treatment program that addresses all of these kind of Lifestyle behaviors. If it's really serious maybe get in a program like Dr Joe Fuhrman offers where she could stay for a month or more and learn how to do all of these things. Keep in mind there are no panaceas. So of course veganism is not a panacea. It is merely a philosophy that if you approach right can be the best decision you've ever made and help you achieve self-actualization and your most optimum health.

[@VeganLinked]

My interview with Jack Norris that I released 2 weeks ago, we talk about things like calcium and bone density a little. You might want to check it out. He mentioned beta-carotene. Does she eat a well-planned whole Food plant-based diet? Does he eat things like legumes, greens, greens, fruits, veggies, mushrooms, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices and a variety of each?

@@VeganLinked I'll take a look at your previous video conversation. I'll assume my sis has a well rounded "vegan" diet after 40 years, but I don't truly know the details. I do know she drinks too much. (My opinion) I would suggest calling animal protein "poison" is overstated. That being said, I fully understand how poisoned our "modern" food supply is across most if not all categories. The poisoned food and medicine (vax,ect.) supply is a can of worms conversation. I will argue that pulling a couple trout out of a high altitude mountain stream is a healthy diet practice for mind and body.

[@VeganLinked]

@@igus2157 it's interesting you should say something about pulling a trout out of a stream. Because that was literally the last And really only fantasy I ever had about eating animals. But now that I'm vegan and have been so long that way of thinking is no longer normalized to the point of being able to culminate such a desire or thought. Because I know if I did such a thing needlessly it would just be violence. So I find it far more Serene and contiguous with being a humane and moral person to simply take a nice hike which I try to do every chance I can in the Appalachian mountains here. And in doing so there was never once a time that I needed to kill anything much less to obtain some sort of peace.

[@VeganLinked]

Just so you know every diet has anecdotes, people boasting about how great it is and how it cured their disease. And while it may seem that way for the individual in the grand scheme it doesn't mean that this is what's best. 95% of diets fail despite having anecdotes praising them. Maybe you don't care but I try to do what's best for now and the future. And I consider how my actions affect others. But if you don't care about any of those things then I don't even know why you're commenting here. You could have done this but instead you chose to support the most violent jobs, the most atrocious living circumstances for animals, an industry that is toxic to surrounding communities, the leading cause of species Extinction, deforestation, desertification, aquatic dead zones, antibiotic resistant bacteria, deadly pathogens and zoonotic diseases that kill millions of people, etc. But you didn't even try a WFPB approach that avoids all that.

I feel it’s hard to remain plant based when you do it solely for the health benefits.

Yes ethics are quintessential to being vegan and maintaining this way. Because we are immersed in a non-vegan world and what's to stop someone from doing what is normal if they don't have ethical reasons holding them back.

What about animal sources and brain development?

[@VeganLinked]

I'm not really sure what your question is. But maybe you're talking about fatty acids? If so, the RDA for essential fatty acids is 1.6 g for a male my age and you can get that from whole plant foods all day long. But it's good to have a well-planned vegan diet that includes things like seeds and nuts that have a lot of Omega-3. Some people think you need to get it from fish. But fish get it from algae. So you can get it from algae too and usually that's in a supplement form. Some people take a fish oil supplement but really it makes more sense to get an algae-based one because that's far more sustainable and easier to get clean. Fish bioaccumulate environmental toxins in their fatty tissue like dioxins, pcbs, Mercury, and also dangerous pathogens like BMAA. And fish are overfished which is devastating to ecosystems And threatening many species to Extinction. Furthermore fish are sentient since they possess the behavioral and physiological characteristics of sentience. Of course somebody can always do clams or oysters or some sort of bivalve. But that's totally not necessary. Or you could be talking about B12 which helps with the myelin sheath of your nerves. And we used to get that from dirty things like water, fruits and vegetables, and the occasional lizard, mouse, scavenge to kill, or if we were lucky a kill. But these days livestock is deficient in B12 so the majority of B12 goes to livestock. Also the soils are low in Cobalt which makes it hard for even free range to get B12. So rather than get it through the blood guts and gore of an artificially inseminated into existence animal you can get it directly from a supplement like I do. Or maybe you're talking about folate. A well-planned vegan diet gets plenty of this. So if you're eating a proper variety of legumes, greens, grains, fruits, veggies, mushrooms, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices then you should be good to go. Especially if you're getting your greens. And what's great about greens is they're also a good source of many other invaluable things like beta-carotene in romaine lettuce. And that's a great way to meet your retinol equivalent. I have a video with a couple by the names of doctors Dean and Ayesha Sherzai, they're doing a talk at Farm days event at ethos farms. I released it late last year. They are neuroscientists. They recommended considering supplementing omega-3 especially when you reach the age of 65. I don't want to misquote them though I just remember them saying something along those lines. They may suggest things based on an individual's unique circumstances regardless of age. Dr Joel Fuhrman recommends supplementing DHA EPA no matter your age. Quite a few people recommend this but quite a few are skeptical. We don't really know if it's bypassing a metabolic pathway by taking an elongated fatty acid. In which case this could be potentially risky. We don't know for certain that there's even any benefit. Some people reference serum levels through an Omega test ideally being above five or something like that. But we don't really know if this even means anything as far has heart health or brain health ultimately. I have a video of Dr Tim Radak a very elaborate talk on fatty acids on my channel. It's several years old but may still be relevant and he keeps his website up to date I think, at least that was the idea. And I referenced that in the description I think of his video. In short, I think the takeaway from that was basically you can get all you need effortlessly from just eating a proper variety of whole plant foods. But people may have a hard time doing this if they're busy. But that's no excuse for animal abuse. And they can just supplement if they're too busy to buy and prepare whole plant foods consistently..

[@VeganLinked]

But ultimately the RDA is for 1.6 g of ala which is in plants. They seem to only recommend DHA/EPA for infants because they get it from their mother's breast milk.

Don't get too caught up in mechanisms. They're intriguing, sure. But, the point is the whole here. When a person is eating an animal they're eating more than just a macronutrient. Food is a package deal. And human outcomes matter. So, keep it simple and eat legumes, greens, grains, fruits, veggies, nuts, mushrooms, seeds, herbs and spices and a proper variety and portion of each. Over time it becomes second nature and is the most natural way really.

I’m not sure about the data supporting his protein assertions. Everything I’ve seen (youtube chiropractors and quacks aside) says saturated fat. But he’s a smart guy.

[@VeganLinked]

Ultimately though the main takeaway I get from his message consistently over the years, food And the nutrients that it provide have a synergistic effect Dr Greger says in a different way and that is food is a package deal. And generally when looking at the science it seems best to look at mechanisms with caution, curiosity, and be intrigued but with caution. That's why human outcomes, systematic reviews, meta-analyzes, bigger picture things can give us more nuanced takeaways. And that is eat whole plant foods. Getting more nuanced would be whichhold plant foods. Or trying to understand it further would be which mechanisms and pathways or whatever. We're just trying to understand it in a more meaningful way would be what are the human outcomes. At the end of the day I want to make the best decision though based on more than just that. And make it based on ethics, a basic understanding of life and science, personal experience, dreams for myself and everyone, etc. And that's the beauty of veganism is in every which way you look at it, it shines above and beyond all else.

How did you gather it's not an absolute truth from your grandmother's anecdote? Is your grandmother somehow absolute truth? Perhaps she could have lived longer and healthier and happier had she not depended on sustaining on consuming body parts, organs and secretions. Your grandmother is not science. If we had an identical twin clone of her living an identical life but instead not consuming animals but rather a well-planned vegan diet that might tell us a little more.

I imagine if your grandmother was a kind woman at all she would have preferred to spare animals needless suffering. Eating animals right now when it's completely not necessary and this unprecedented time here and now only perpetuates the most violent jobs, the most atrocious living circumstances for animals that inevitably end up in a concentrated animal feeding operation of which there's over 200,000 in the US alone that are toxic to surrounding communities, leading cause of deforestation, desertification, aquatic dead zones, species Extinction, antibiotic resistant bacteria, deadly pathogens and zoonotic diseases that kill millions of people.

Weird since I know several hundred vegans very well personally and have for many years. Many of these vegans I know have been vegan longer than I've been alive and even lifelong. Before I went vegan though I didn't really know any vegans. So I don't know how you would even know vegans much less a ratio of healthy to not healthy vegans. It sounds like you're just talking out of your ass like most non-vegans tend to do in an attempt to justify ingesting body parts organs and secretions and contributing to violence.

[@VeganLinked]

I know non-vegans who have had very ill health being a non-vegan, by better than 10 to 1. Wow see I can say that too only what I'm saying is profoundly more accurate. The overwhelming majority of people are sick. Like 3/4 of people are overweight in a way that's detrimental to their health. The majority of people have chronic disease accumulating over time that ultimately results in premature death due to cardiometabolic behavioral diseases. I'm not saying vegan is a panacea by any means. We're all going to die of something. But the totality of evidence makes it clear that not only is a well-planned vegan diet healthy and appropriate for every stage of life it's also protective against many chronic diseases decreases risk for chronic diseases and all cause mortality. So I might still have a heart attack even though I'm eating a diet that makes me heart attack proof in theory. But I'm far less likely to die of a heart attack than the average person. And I'm more likely to survive it and less likely to experience any difficulties prematurely.

[@VeganLinked]

People like you are what's wrong with the entire f****** world really. You make these empirical claims without any evidence based on your ignorant observations. Most non-vegans don't even really know that many vegans much less enough vegans to say something remotely legit in respect to ratios of them getting sick. Somehow your observations aren't being held up by reality. Anything out there meaningful and significant that actually looks at dietary patterns shows you that the more plants you eat the healthier you are and the more animals you eat the more f***** up you get. But hey we already know like that first frame in the documentary earthling says the truth comes with resistance and opposition before it is accepted. And the absolute truth is we can be vegan and as healthy or even healthier. I say the healthiest way is being vegan not only physiologically but also mentally because I'm living contiguous with my ethics and desires not to hurt others. And when you eat animals there are victims every which Way You look. It creates the most violent jobs, the most atrocious living circumstances for animals that inevitably results in concentrated animal feeding operations that are toxic to surrounding communities and the leading cause of species Extinction, deforestation, desertification, aquatic dead zones, species Extinction, deadly pathogens and zoonotic diseases that kill millions of people, and increase your risk for chronic disease and all-cause mortality. Maybe what you meant is for every 10 vegans one might not be in ideal Health. Perhaps they don't want to be and that's a personal choice when you're vegan because there's no victim involved. Most people don't care about their health though which is why they eat trash most of the time. But that's not a personal choice with so many victims involved. Please stop perpetuating nonsense and complete violence and catch up with what's up.

[@VeganLinked]

Or maybe you know sick vegans because you know sick people because you're sick? And maybe these so-called vegans aren't really vegans they're just sick people trying to get better who were sick before they even went vegan. But vegan is not a diet or health plan it is a philosophy to not exploit animals as much as practicable. And as a result a vegan will find a way to make the diet work based on their specific needs and desires. But there's no prerequisite that you ultimately care about your health or have a certain degree of Health even though ideally you would at least care.

Interesting interview. Unfortunately, it has not become clear to me that animal protein itself is unhealthy or if it is actually the inseparable fats that are the primary cause. Furthermore, proponents of a plant-based diet never clearly explain what exactly the quantitative and qualitative effect is on the average human life. I am particularly thinking of the following factors: performance capacity, health, and lifespan.

[@VeganLinked]

What you're running after is a little too nuanced and it's going to cause you to run into a tree and not see the forest. Chasing mechanisms of action doesn't get you anywhere hence the reason why his book is called Whole. There's so many metabolic pathways and synergistic effects and endless nutrients that what you're chasing really is going to get you nowhere. But the theory is that sulfur-containing amino acids, like methionine, which are very high in animal flesh, may be one of many culprits. So if you look into things like methionine restriction you will see the positive effects. All of the amino acids that we need come from plants. And plants have a better distribution of these amino acids at least when you simply eat a proper variety. When an animal, even a human animal, eats plants their body uses those nutrients, like amino acids, for that animal specific needs. And this is the end product. You don't want to consume the end product. The animal metabolize those nutrients for that animal specific body's needs, not yours. And this is why for example energy is lost when you go up a trophic level. And this may be why animal flesh has on average 64 times less antioxidants because the animal has already used up the antioxidants during metabolism. Is why plants are a hell of a lot better for you than consuming body parts, organs and secretions.

As far as health and lifespan, well the totality of evidence clearly points at plants being most protective and decreasing your risk for chronic disease and all cause mortality. Eating animals increases your risk for chronic disease and all-cause mortality.

[@VeganLinked]

Numerous scientific studies have provided evidence supporting the idea that a plant-based diet can contribute to a lower risk of heart disease. The Adventist Health Study-2, which included a large population of Seventh-day Adventists, found that individuals following a vegetarian diet (including both lacto-ovo vegetarians and vegans) had a lower risk of developing coronary heart disease compared to non-vegetarians. The study highlighted the protective effects of plant-based diets. EPIC-Oxford Study: The EPIC-Oxford study, part of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition, examined the diets and health outcomes of over 65,000 participants. It found that vegetarians had a significantly lower risk of coronary heart disease compared to meat-eaters. Nurses' Health Study and Health Professionals Follow-Up Study: These long-term cohort studies in the United States involved over 200,000 participants. They found that a higher intake of plant-based foods, such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, was associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease. The emphasis on plant-based sources of protein was particularly noteworthy. Interheart Study: The Interheart Study, a global case-control study, investigated risk factors for acute myocardial infarction (heart attack) in various populations. It found that a high intake of fruits and vegetables was associated with a lower risk of heart attack, emphasizing the cardiovascular benefits of plant-based foods. Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) Trial: While not exclusively plant-based it can be done vegan, the DASH diet emphasizes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and low-fat dairy. The DASH trial demonstrated that this dietary pattern can significantly lower blood pressure, a key risk factor for heart disease. Meta-analyses and Reviews: Several meta-analyses and systematic reviews have summarized the existing evidence on plant-based diets and cardiovascular health. These analyses consistently suggest that plant-based diets are associated with a lower risk of heart disease, including a reduction in blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and inflammation.

He may not be a domain expert when it comes to CVD. But, he may not be wrong either. I think Dr Campbell was more focused on cancer anyways. And I think his point generally goes back to focusing on whole foods and not getting carried away in mechanisms. Human outcomes matter. Animals have unique protein and fat profiles compared to plants, when a person eats an animal this is a package deal. And the bottom line is eating animals seems to increase risk for chronic disease and all cause mortality and plants decrease risk. As for mechanisms, he probably knows more than I do.

His 40 years of research has been debunked by carnivore diet anecdotes. 😏

[@VeganLinked]

Anecdotes blow my mind, I was just on Twitter just now or X I mean, I really don't use it but for some reason I was on it. Anyway some carnivore clown is like "they say there's going to be a cure for cancer but there's never been a cure for anything" then they go on to say that they cured their type 2 diabetes going carnivore. Meanwhile I'm thinking well you masked your symptoms with an elimination diet. And now you're increasing your risk for chronic disease and all-cause mortality. Yet no one in the comment section is thinking about this. They're just like yay eat more meat. The problem with someone vocalizing this anecdote is no one's going to be around to speak on their behalf when they realize they are wrong and long gone dead. So the anecdotes just roll in with no truth follow-up. And that's why Science is such a beautiful thing. And then when that person is dead no one's going to realize Dead wrong than they were. Meanwhile there's vegans who have been vegan longer than this person's been alive and don't have and never have had any of that person's issues. It's so hard to sympathize with ignorance.

@@VeganLinked These people are criminal!!! It hilarious on one hand and dangerous on the other. "Carnivore" is going to cost people their health and lives.

Its really down to individuals..my father is 95, he is out gardening and jet washing his patio, still sharp, still looks youthful, very mobile and he eats meat

[@VeganLinked]

That's genetics you're talking about and good luck as well as other lifestyle behaviors. At the end of the day your father could be doing just as well or even better without having to needlessly ingest body parts, organs, and secretions. And if he knew better I'm sure he would rather do better than support the most violent jobs, most atrocious living circumstances for animals that inevitably results in concentrated animal feeding operations that are toxic to surrounding communities And the leading cause of deforestation, desertification, aquatic dead zones, species Extinction, antibiotic resistant bacteria, deadly pathogens and zoonotic diseases that kill millions of people, And increase his risk for chronic disease and all-cause mortality. Sure he's 95 but we still don't know if he could live longer without eating animals. Because he's just n of 1. There is literally nothing about this channel or video that's saying eat this way to live a certain age. It's saying stop abusing animals needlessly, stop supporting the most dumb, deadly and destructive industries and way of living.

Would love to hear the Dr.'s opinion on nattokinase for preventing or reversing atherosclerosis.

as for cholesterol, that s more to do with how you eat your meat not meat itself. if you trim the fat and do not deepfry you aint gonna get no cholesterol from meat trust me, my doctor was surprised how low my triglycerides are, they re nearing zero

[@VeganLinked]

While removing fat will reduce energy intake and potentially "help" with triglycerides, so does most if not all forms of caloric restriction. Exercise helps too, not drinking, not smoking, etc... I don't have to cut fat off of meat though, I just eat whole plant foods and they have the perfect distribution of nutrients without having to remove fat from necrotic flesh. You're making empirical claims that you can't back up. There is still cholesterol in meat when you remove the fat. so, it's hard to trust you when 1.) you're wrong 2.) you're just some random person and 3.) you're eating animals needlessly. You do not need to consume body parts, organs or secretions to be as healthier or even healthier than you are. Your body needs some triglycerides to function properly and gain energy. So nearing zero is probably not a good thing. There's a very long list of other potential problems with eating animals that you're not addressing. At the end of the day what matters most is human outcomes. And those who eat animals have an increased risk for chronic disease and all cause mortality. These things are insidious. Your triglycerides nearing zero wont stop you from a whole host of other chronic diseases.

[@VeganLinked]

Furthermore, your triglycerides nearing zero, if that's really all you want in life you probably could achieve this on a plant based diet just the same or even better and have other biomarkers more favorable as well while not increasing your risk for chronic disease, contributing to the most violent jobs, the most atrocious living circumstances for animals, concentrated animal feeding operations of which there are over 200,000 in the US alone that are toxic to surrounding communities, the leading cause of deforestation, desertification, aquatic dead zones, species extinction, antibiotic resistant bacteria, deadly pathogens and zoonotic diseases that kill millions of people, et cetera. So why treat your body as some sort of experiment when you have no control to compare it to and ultimately what you're doing is going against the totality of evidence for optimum health span, and what you're doing is so vastly invasive, violent, deadly and destructive?

[@Krzysztof_keto]

Why all comments support the same view. Nobody thinks differently that is strange🤔

[@VeganLinked]

@@Krzysztof_ketothis is just science, there's not a lot of room for trivial subjective nonsense I guess... I mean there's a couple of strange comments, perhaps you need to keep looking?

[@VeganLinked]

@@Krzysztof_keto perhaps you're looking for the keto or carnivore comments? There's a couple down there, is that what you're after, those short-term anecdotes not backed by any science?

[@VeganLinked]

@@Krzysztof_keto also there might be some held in moderation. I haven't had time to look through the admin area in a while...

Why everyone is vegan? Are there any vegetarian?

[@VeganLinked]

Why would anybody be vegetarian? We don't consume any animal body parts, organs or secretions. Dairy is scary. It's basically liquid meat.

[@VeganLinked]

Here's why no vegetarians are here, this 5 minute video will explain it perfectly: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5SxaIZ9fNR2hKssi=MSSrsDoE3YBsW7TB
