VEGANS IN DANGER with LIERRE KEITH [Plant-based Tips]

The benefits of a Vegan Diet for the planet and for your health are lauded by many. Eating animal flesh is currently repulsive to millions of vegans all around the world. Animal rights are promoted by so many. But, what if there were more to the story? What if a vegan diet didn't actually make the Earth healthier? What if eating certain plant foods led to the death of millions of creatures?
Lierre Keith is the author of seven books, including The Vegetarian Myth: Food, Justice, and Sustainability, which has been called “the most important ecological book of this generation.” She is coauthor, with Derrick Jensen and Max Wilbert, of Bright Green Lies: How the Environmental Movement Lost Its Way and What We Can Do About It. She is the founder of WoLF (Women’s Liberation Front), a nonprofit which is suing the state of California on behalf of women forced to share prison cells with men. She lives in the redwoods with an enormous pack of enormous dogs.

Yeah the cognitive dissonance kicks in whenever people get given info which contradicts their belief system.

I grew up on an 80 acre dairy and mixed crop farm in Wisconsin. We raised dairy cattle, beef cattle, pigs, chickens, ducks, geese. The cattle were fed dry hay and fermented corn silage. The birds were free range, and ate insects and seeds. We hunted and ate rabbit, squirrel, and deer. We grew peas, carrots, sweet corn, and beets for cash. We had a garden with dozens and dozens of vegetables and fruits for canning and freezing. We drank raw milk. We fished for freshwater panfish. I still eat the same at 77. Walk 4 miles per day in AZ. Triglycerides 29, HDL 109. A1C 55, fasting insulin 2.9. My doctor can't believe it. A lifetime of a healthy diet.

I grew up on a farm just like you and we hunted game as well. I was unable to live the same because my mom sold the farm and land when my dad died and I think not living that lifestyle has contributed to my poor health even though I worked hard and constantly exercised. And of course I have never gotten a logical, complete answer from docs. It is always " I don't know but here's some more pills..."

I cook for a living and am deeply involved with food. We have one token vegan member that we cook special meals for. I see what he eats and cannot imagine he is healthy. We serve "Beyond Burgers" and impossible burgers. They smell absolutely disgusting. They smell worse than the absolute cheapest canned dog food. I try to convince people NOT TO EAT THEM. They are so incredibly highly processed... they are not food..... they are injected with some processed beet juice to appear as if they contain blood like a real burger. You would be so much better off to eat the beet and discard the processed beyondburger. Ugh!

Great show. I went carnivore 13 months ago. No more migraines, arthritis, chronic neuropathy, gum disease, lost weight, feel 29 not 49 and my whole outlook on everything is better. BUT .... Every day for the last 5 years I was worried about coming home and finding my son dead. He came to me last month and said "okay, how does this diet of your work?" in days he was a changed man, he's only ketovore but I don't care. He eats high fat meat, loads of eggs and now goes to the gym 3/4 times a week. No more soy, no more oils, no pasta, no rice. I hope he will soon be carnivore but I don't push because now I don't worry about him killing himself everyday. Thanks to people like you Dr Berry my son lives. ❤️🥩❤️

I originally had a huge gallstone, so naturally, I assumed it was from eating meat, dairy and eggs, so i decided to go plantbased. I was vegan for 2 years, thinking I was eating good wholesome plants. I felt great for about the 1st month and I also lost weight. After that first month, I felt awful, no energy, my gums were receding, and I generally felt unwell. I stumbled upon Dr. Berry's videos and I kept swiping them away and refused to watch them. Finally, I gave in and actually listened to him lol. I have been carnivore for about a month and a half and every problem I had went away. My mental clarity is insane right now. I no longer feel like I am in a fog. Thank God for Dr. Berry!!!

[@kirstymays3122]

I was keto got really bad gallstones had to have my gallbladder removed. Not to mention I was in really bad health, pre diabetes, fatty liver, high cholesterol. I’ve now been vegan for over 5 years and wished I did it sooner. At 43 my health is the best it’s ever been my blood iron has improved. No longer have fatty liver high cholesterol, pre diabetes. My mental clarity is best it’s ever been, my cycle is normal, my skin is great. My energy is peaking, I’m runny the best I’ve ever run. So I’m the opposite. Tho I think all this is achieved on a low carb keto carnivorous diet. I think these are short term gains. I was low carb for 10 years, after, my first born, I thought being low carb was best for weight loss. I was a yo-yo ticking time bomb. Was lucky I didn’t have a heart attack.

[@murrynathan]

The empathy Dr. Berry is demonstrating toward vegans is what happens when going carnivore. Experiencing enhanced empathy was a complete surprise for me personally. People I used to think were just awful, I now understand are just people struggling. And I’ve even been able to forgive myself for past behavior, because I realize I myself was struggling. When I hear an ambulance, my first thought now is, Hope everyone’s okay. Never thought any of that previously. Living in Ketosis is truly wonderful and amazing.

I went vegan 5 years ago. Stayed one for three years. Those were the hardest years for me: 1. Having to literally eat all day to stay satiated, like the gorillas do. 2. Being bloated all the time, and having huge and smelly - let's put it straight - farts, every 30 minutes, to the point I wanted to be alone to be able to let them rip and release the pressure and pain in my stomach. 3. Not being able to gain muscle weight, yet easily gaining fat weight. 4. Having very notable weight fluctuations, despite watching and weighing and measuring all my food, literally using a kitchen scale for everything I ate. Now, 2 years carnivore, eating an occasional leaf of salad, 3 (three pieces) berries every month, but 99% is just red meet, chicken, turkey, eggs and butter. My weight is stable, when I eat and I'm satisfied, I can feel that I don't want to eat anymore. Before, I would only stop eating when it would hurt so much, I couldn't sit anymore and had to lie down. I feel normal, healthy and strong. Over 40 now. Eat your 🍖

Take note that she did not take any suppliments. Awareness of how important B12 is 40 years ago was not around. Fifteen other vitamins are not available to human digestion of plants. Because of that, veganism destroyed her spine. If one is not willing to take a bag full of supplements and PiLLS forget about veganism. Eating unprocessed food on the other hand is a good thing. Lack of animal protein and fats will eventually cause intense hunger and then vegans go into carb overload and health circles the drain. Please find an indirect way to get the information across. Women will suffer greatly from iron deficiency and will go down the drain.

I was a raw vegan for almost 10 years, mostly fruitarian, in my approach to heal from ME/CFS. I felt great for some years, before my health started spiraling down again. Fast... At first I thought it was just healing crisis, from detoxing out old junk. But eventually my body couldn't take it anymore. I ended up with totally depleted omega 3's reserves, oxalate poisoning, histamine issues, and not to mention several nutritional deficiencies. Through the 20 years suffering from ME, I had never been that sick. The worst thing was that I felt what I will call a shutdown of my nervous system after eating, were it felt like all my energy was sucked out of me, so it was even difficult to breath. But I had so many other symptoms as well. Deep depression, high anxiety, jittery all the time, aches and pains in joints, muscles and even shooting pain from deep inside the bones. Horrible leg cramps. Huge sleep issues. Migraines. Dizzyness. Just to name a few. At first I was scared of eating fish again, afraid of it making me more sick. Because I unfortunately still believed in the vegan dogma of animal products being unhealthy. But eventually I had no other choice because my body started rejecting all kinds of fruits and veggies, the same I had eaten with no problems earlier. And to my biggest surprise; I had no reaction to fish. It felt completely NEUTRAL to my body. Same with eggs. No issues. It actually felt more calming to my system. Meat on the other hand was hard to digest in the beginning, I didn't have sufficient stomach acid. No surprise, after following a diet that totally lacked sodium and fat. So together with omega 3 supplements and fish, eggs - I slowly felt more balanced both physically, mentally and emotionally. But it took me quite some time to stop the vegan belief of meat being unhealthy. And now after close to 3 years, I've just started embarking on a carnivore diet in order to heal my body and mind. Gosh; here I have been suffering from gerd for many years. And it totally stopped when I went carnivore! And your videos are also helping me a lot! Thank you ❤

I'm an ex vegan of 13 years. Lierre, you sharing your story has helped me so much, because you are right; it becomes your identity. It's still hard, I have been eating animal products for 4 months now, and some days It still feels really weird. i was a big meater growing up, but Ive really brainwahsed myself; fruit and veggies = food. Animals: not food. i would look at meat and see corpses. I so enjoy it all when I eat it, but its really in my head. Especially now that its becoming more mainstream, Even not health consious peeple are now eating less meat because of the envirement etc. And now the they guilt trip me, even though they just have started and I was vegan 13 years and vegetarian 2 years before that. Suddenly Im the bad person. Anyway. Thank you for sharing, It had helped me so much making the desicion to eat meat again for my health. Not there yet, but I'm getting better.

[@pestomitketchup]

[@InaStanley83]

This is my second time watching (watched live yesterday and watching again now). And the reason I'm so interested is because I'm trying my best to understand how folks get into being vegan, how they think, and if / how what they think changes once these concepts are presented to them. I'm ketovore and a regenerative farmer, so I understand this side of things very well. But I want to better understand the vegan thought process so that I can better educate folks who might eventually visit my farm. That being said, I would think eggs would be one of the easiest animal-based foods for someone who is vegan to eat. A hen is going to lay eggs regardless of the environment she's in, and if she isn't living with any roosters those eggs aren't going to be fertilized. So by collecting and eating eggs we aren't forcing anything on the hen and we aren't killing her babies. If uncollected those eggs would either be eaten by a predator or left to decompose, yet they can be used for food for people who need it without bringing harm to anything. In many cases even milk can be collected without harm to a mother or baby. Many dairy animals produce more milk and for much longer than their babies drink it. Dairy goats often like to wean their kids within a few weeks, but continue to produce milk for months after their kids have fully weaned. Milking them regularly until they dry out naturally actually helps them. It keeps the skin and muscles of and around the udder in good condition and helps to prevent mastitis. And while folks argue the health benefits of cow's milk, goat milk can actually be used as a replacement for synthetic baby formula. It's MUCH healthier than synthetic formula as it has enzymes and bacteria that support gut health without any added chemicals, synthetic vitamins, or preservatives. Goat milk is also beneficial for us beyond infancy and childhood. We're essentially just making use of something that would be there anyway but might otherwise go to waste. And from it we can make a host of other healthful foods.

[@janedough6575]

I have found that most vegans have never seen a farm, ranch or anything having to do with raising crops or livestock. You have your work cut out for you. 😅

[@isabellezablocki7447]

Hens nowadays produce eggs every day except in the winter (when they produce none unless you put them through unnatural conditions which of course they do in the egg industry) whereas in the wild hens produce 12 to 14 eggs a year. Backyards hens come from hatcheries where about 50% are born male and 50% female. They keep the females that they will sell to people for backyard hens when the male chicks are being ground up alive or suffocated to death. So I would not say that babies are not killed and that we aren't forcing anything on the hens where in those hatcheries the chicks never see the protective wings of their moms like in the wild. You can understand that dairy follows the same process.

[@eslom1489]

Why people choose to think deeply about what they eat? 70% of Americans are overweight or obese. As a health care worker, I am tired of seeing diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol riddled bodies who don't think about what they eat.

[@bobbell6485]

If you want to understand how folks get into being vegan you should talk to them or reach out to long-term vegan doctors and communities and not try to learn this by watching a carnivore channel with a former psuedo-vegetarian trying to make a living on bashing vegan and vegetarian diets. Most persons trying a "diet" fail and often people fail or hate carnivore and keto (which can be dangerous). This is all pretty surface level stuff in this video with no push-back on the shallow logic from an active vegan in the conversation. It's basically an ad to feel-good about raising and killing animals to eat. The tropes applied one-sided to vegans here are funny; "most vegans have never seen a farm" if that's true then most people have never seen one- I drive past them all the time and I have even worked on a farm that raised and baled hay and alfalfa and also raised cows and horses. I have had numerous gardens over the years, so don't even understand that comment in reply to your post. Humans don't need cow milk because it is very unlike human milk and only humans drink the milk of other animals. Dairy cows lead miserable lives for the most part. I don't find any compelling science for humans needing cow milk and your comments about dairy, absent supporting research, don't mean much.

[@humanfirst1550]

I've been vegan for 5 years, lots of fruits, salads, nuts, seeds, legumes. I happen to love these foods. I remember as a child gagging on milk and beef, and always being carsick after an egg breakfast. I developed a near fatal autoimmune disease at age 23 while eating the standard American diet, including dairy and animal products. I'm 65 now and have come to understand that i had sub clinical deficiencies and low thyroid which led to my health issues. I think it's very crucial to find a doctor who will do functional lab work to identify deficiencies and food sensitivites instead of assuming that one type of diet is superior to another. God eventually gave humans permission to eat animals but remember that we were originally created for the Garden of Eden. Genesis 1:29-30: Then God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you; and to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the sky and to every thing that moves on the earth which has life, I have given every green plant for food”; and it was so. Then after the fall: Genesis 9:3-4 Every moving thing that is alive shall be food for you; I give all to you, as I gave the green plant. Only you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. So any food can be healthy depending on the individual's specific needs. Its not one diet vs. another.

The admonition is against eating blood or meat with the blood. That’s why kosher or halal meats are completely drained of blood. The meat properly prepared was not a problem.

I'm conflicted on exactly what to do about it, in the meantime I love hearing of all these perspectives and I'm glad that others are acknowledging that animals aren't more moral than us lol. I do think we have more capabilities, and with that comes more moral responsibility in the long-run or at least more effort. But I know there are better ways to farm animals and reduce their suffering. And meat can be so healing and many need it,, I also know that the factory farms aren't the only causing suffering to life

[@hcure4003]

After experiencing both plant-based and carnivore diets, I mostly believe now that it really depends on how these people do the diets and the quality of their food. Some say "I did the diet right and healthy" but there are some issues with what's considered 'healthy' on a vegan diet (or any diet). And even then, it's extremely common for people to overlook or underlook things that could be a problem in their diet. Especially since we don't prepare food properly in the u.s. and certain other countries 😩 (like foods with anti-nutrients). Also I talked with someone who use to always get yeast infections, they said their yeast infections went away when they went vegan, even though they eat lots of fruit. So there was something causing those infections that had nothing to do with carbs. Not saying that carbs aren't an issue for many, many people do need a break from them to heal. But if the issue comes back every time you try to eat one piece of fruit then the root cause hasn't been addressed, and understandably some people would just stay carnivore since it works for them. I've also noticed carb addiction being a big reason why carnivore works for people (ending their cravings), and I can say that my cravings didn't go away on carnivore. My cravings didn't get better until I gradually introduced fermented sauerkraut and took probiotics. I believe there's a serious bacterial imbalance issue behind all of this. I was fine on plant-based until I was prescribed antibiotics and developed PTSD around the same time :/ that dangerous combo wiped out much of my bacteria and thus the ability to digest food properly

Dear Dr Berry, I do so like your informative videos. I spent 6 years of my life learning everything I could find out about food and diet. I know the leaders of the various factions in the food wars battle. I've followed the information and the disinformation. I really wish we would all stop fighting. I'm almost 75 years old and if I could pick the perfect diet for myself it would be a diet of fish and fruit on some tropical island in the Pacific. Unfortunately I live in the frozen north of Toronto Ontario Canada. I feel so bad when I see folks getting into a vegetarian versus meat eating argument. This is what I have learned. Approximately 49% of people are blood type O. About 38% are type A. About 10% are type B and about 3% are type AB. The O types are the natural carnivores. The A types are the natural herbavores. The A and AB types are the natural omnivores. There's a preferred diet for every blood type. Whether or not you're Rh positive or Rh negative is not a factor in your proper diet. We should all be eating the diet which is best for our physical, mental and emotional health. There is no one perfect diet for everyone on the planet. That is absurdity insane. Unless of course you are talking about absolutely everyone avoiding the Standard American Diet, processed food, junk food, fast food, convenience food, packaged food, imitation food and the latest invention, fake food. That's the food we should all be up in arms against not whether we prefer to shop in the produce isle or the meat isle. Interestingly enough, type O's, the carnivores, live the longest because they have the fewest heart attacks. The A's, the omnivores have the shortest life spans. And, the B's and AB's have the worst overall health. Therefore, eating meat will not shorten your life and eating grains and veggies will not extend your life. It's actually the opposite. You have been lied to. My blood type, O negative, puts me in the dominant food group, the carnivore camp, and I really do understand the rise of the carnivore push back against the religious herbavore camp who have been so vocal about pushing their moral agenda and influencing educational institutions, research studies and published results. AKA, the Seventh Day Adventist Church folks which began back with the creation of John Kellogg's Corn Flakes to prevent teen boys from masturbating. These folks are silent, highly motivated and deadly serious in their agenda. On the other hand you have the giant food/drug corporations whose god is financial profit for a few at the cost of the health of health of the masses. Yes, they want you fat and sick and addicted to prescription drugs. It's all profit for them. Let's not fight between whether we choose to eat primarily animal foods or rather we prefer to eat primarily plant foods. No plant wants to be eaten any more than any animal does. But we're human and we gotta eat and we're definitely top dog on the food chain. We all need to say grace before we chow down no matter what we choose to eat. God bless you all. 😊

Speaking from ONLY my own personal experience, I've NEVER met a vegan or vegetarian who was 'all there' mentally. Physically they don't look healthy either. I've never understood the attraction to the lifestyle, and thankfully, I NEVER saw anything they were selling that I wanted. Pray for these people - they desperately need the truth.

They don't want to hurt anything. That is the attraction for most people who go vegetarian or vegan. Often they are young and naive.

Ive met lots of them. They just arent fighting on the internet with other wackos. Im technically a "vegetarian" I guess. Havent eaten mammals in 15+ years. Go & look at me, Im 47. I eat egg yolk & fish every couple of weeks. Mostly eggs & simple sugars. No mammals. Technically fish falls in the vegetarian category whatever that means? I dont care about the labels. But I know plant based vegans who supplement & are totally healthier than being on a processed foods diet. Its possible. Im not gonna do that but im healthier without mammals eating eggs & some fatty fish & shellfish.

Vegetarian for 47 years, i started introducing meat and fish last year, working towards a carnivore lifestyle now, I wish I had people around me like you guys when I was 9 years old, rather than the Vegetarian/vegan lies I was so influenced by, bless my parents, I was a complete nughtmare, and they were in fact right, it made me very ill, I am nearly 60, sadly my parents are not here to see me changing my lifestyle, just wish I had come to this years ago! It saddens me greatly the amount of people, especially young people, that are listening the way I did to all the lies, and starting on their Vegetarian/vegan way of life and certainly their jouney just like mine into certain ill health.

Thank you for having Lierre Keith on! She’s such a treasure. I was never a vegan but was a vegetarian for over two decades to my own health’s determent. It wasn’t until I was in court covering the NXIVM cult defendants early hearings that I realized how damaging a diet can be to one’s health. The women defendants were on a low calorie vegan diet and their skin was a color of grey/yellow I’ve never seen in a human being!

[@Lierre_Keith]

Oh, I did not know that about NXIVM. What those women suffered... and now adding orthorexic starvation. Yes, I know that skin color. Thanks for your work on that disturbing case. People need to understand cult dynamics to inoculate themselves (and their children).

[@thebooknook5767]

I was vegan for about 6 weeks in my 20s and felt like I couldn't think straight. Now at 60 I use raw vegan eating intermittently, as it does provide healing and cleansing and has a place in many healing protocols. All natural, unprocessed foods including meats, vegetables, fruits, grains, etc can be useful, depending on the person's needs. My main goal is to derive my food from mt own garden, local gardens and ranches and other well-sourced vendors.

Before I developed celiac disease, kidney disease, a-fib, I loved to cook. My mom was a good cook. Ditto my grandma. So many great dishes. Then along came the Joy of Cooking and Julia Child and the era of the foodie. I was all in. For many years. Some of my favorite dishes came from a cookbook called “The Vegetarian Epicure.” Nobody said hey, what you are eating is making you sick. Now I’ve been carnivore for about five months and feeling better. I’m old but I feel ok, not weak and foggy. What a relief to not have that weighing me down. I do not trust anything the CDC, the FDA, or any other government agency that’s screwing with our health. That’s their legacy from me.

I got sucked into the WFPB vegan diet that was touted to heal me of my Rheumatoid arthritis. I was so strict on it as I was desperate for healing, but all I ended up with was a host of other debilitating symptoms and ailments. My doctor suggested I try carnivore over a year ago and, despite my initial scepticism, I was so desperately ill, that I tried it. ALL my symptoms are gone, I'm off the toxic biologic medications and feeling and looking better than ever! I used to go to the doctor once a week...haven’t been to a doctor now in 6 months but at my last visit there was zero signs of inflammation markers in my blood, ideal blood glucose and my CAC heart scan score was zero. I have no hate for vegans and still have vegan friends, I just hope people who see how healthy and happy I am now is more convincing than any words I could say. ❤

This was an awesome conversation! I appreciate this video Dr Berry! Lierre is awesome and feel the same way about life. I remember first hearing about monocropping and how damaging it really is on Joe Rogans podcast many years ago. It’s honestly just as horrible if not worse than factory farming of animals 😢. As much as I can on my budget I eat food from what I call happy animals. Animals being animals, getting sunshine, not being stressed, eating what they are supposed to eat. I hope we haven’t completely destroyed the Earth 🌎 and can come back from the all damage we humans have done and get back to regenerative agriculture.

Great interview. I have similar philosophy and experience as Lierre. The circle of life is a beautiful thing, including the death bit. It takes some people a bit of emotional and spiritual growth to understand that us humans are not independent of that system.

Yes and not only is death natural and ok, animals do not experience life, death and pain the way we do - we can't anthropomorphize them. they have their own way of being and living and experiencing things and we shouldn't take that away from them in order to make ourselves feel better.

[@laurataylor8717]

Another different note about the different lifestyles I was thinking about is meal prepping. Vegan and vegetarian dishes don't have a terribly long shelf life and so they need to almost constantly be cooking or thinking about food. I put a beef brisket in my slow cooker last Sunday. I put a pork roast in my slow cooker in it on Monday. I've had a busy week. I've been able to eat off those 2 low effort cooks all week in minutes.

[@user-rn3st3is3n]

For me, it's not that eating animals is unethical. It's the horrible way food animals live and are then killed. I have always eaten meat because my body craves it, but I wish meat producers would be ethical and compassionate. I buy grass fed sometimes but I really can't afford it.

[@HumbleBee123]

Been plant based for 17 years. Just saw this video saying vegans in danger so want to see what need to know. I'm always ready to learn even though dr says all bloods are perfect, it's good to be aware. I'm plant based for ethical reasons. I lived with my parents and brought up in big meat eating family. But I was always an animal lover and empathy was strong in me. I stopped lamb first but then struggled to enjoy meat anymore. Knowing they had hurt and scared. I couldn't enjoy their flesh anymore. I was forced to carry on eating animals and struggled chewing and enjoying it. So then my parents had no choice. I didnt have vegetarian or vegan friends so no one to learn from. But still dont eat animals 17 years later and super healthy. I cant speak for everyone but I have loads of vegan friends now and all are healthy. So willing to learn from people to get tips on eating plant based and what is advised. I wont ever eat animals though. I literally would feel sick. Even just meat juice in foods makes me urge. Dairy is unnatural and so dont miss that. All animals stop Milk after infancy and it's weird we carry on into adulthood from another species. But I think if you have pet chickens and have eggs, then i dont see an issue. I know many older people in 70s and been vegan all their lives and healthy and good skin. So I'm not worried myself. But I do think that some vegans dont eat properly. I hope to learn from this video and going to start watching now. Thanks in advance.

[@dommidavros2211]

I'm also vegan. What did you think, did it change your mind?

[@HumbleBee123]

@dommidavros2211 No not at all. She wasnt even vegan. She ate a plant based diet but she doesnt have the empathy of a vegan. The way she talks is very unsympathetic. I thought this was a pro vegan video and helping guide us about stuff we may not know yet. I've eaten plant based for 17 years and very healthy and have no reason to eat animals. I cant claim love someone and then lovingly pay someone to kill them, so I can eat them. If we were carnivores and needed meat like cats then I'd understand it. But we are omnivore and mostly eat vegetation. But like herbivores, can eat meat. It's just not in our nature to kill without guilt. Unless it's a psychopath lol. When kids are taught to kill or watch animals be killed in third world countries, they cry and plead for the animals life. But yet a lion cub doesnt think twice. Have a piece of raw meat in front of an omnivore like a dog and that dog with snatch if in seconds and be possessive. Do the same in front of a human, piece of raw meat right in their face and they will be grossed out. Reacts are very different. Think we should only eat animals in a survival situation. Which is what we did, mostly bugs and slow easy prey. Because we dont have the physiology to hunt, no sharp teeth,no claws, we are weak and slow. So no this video just made me more sure that I'm doing the best thing for me and others. I know being vegan isnt perfect and so many more things need improving on in plant farming. Which is what many vegans are now pushing for. I will say, before being plant based, I used to have very little energy. I used to eat quite a bit of meat. Then going plant based has filled me with lots more energy now. I would never go back. I know many healthy, happy vegans. Not one has issues with plant based diet. What were your thoughts?

My brother loves Dr Berry and since I watch my brothers Keto channel I every now and again get KZbin recommendations for Dr Berry. I saw an interview with Dr Robert Lustig and it was like this is my problem. I stopped sugars and ultra processed foods. Now I see this video and so glad I didn’t fall for vegan hype. I fast from meat twice a week for religious reasons and I don’t eat too much meat or seafood more like a condiment. I need to rethink this as my skin is extremely dry, which I can say is from dry heat in house during winter but in summer it’s still dry then I say it’s from chlorine in pool. Plus I’m obese.
