Wfpb vegan has been the easiest diet ever. So so many times I've sat and starved myself because I thought carbs were just evil. One month after being completely vegan I realise I can eat as much as I need to feel full. My energy is booming. I have 3 small children and being so over weight from the "ketogenic diet" that I thought would help me, I felt so lifeless. I felt like I could barely keep up with them. Now more than a month into it I'm so much happier. So much more energy. If you are reading this and struggling to adhere to a vegan diet, please take this from someone who has struggled for so long with weight, arthritis, asthma, high blood pressure. All of this will melt away completely. I have my life back!

He may be biased, but at least it is toward helping people rather than getting rich at their expense.

I can't believe he's 63 years old! He looks amazing! It's strange but when I was young, my doctor told me to eat meat again. At this point, I was vegetarian for 3 years. I was living in Santa Monica, California and also unaware of the health benefits of being vegan. Now that I just turned 47 I finally became Vegan. It's hard to find support here in Texas. Although, I wonder why some doctors are against the Vegan diet? Sometimes, I feel afraid to tell some people that I'm Vegan cuz they get combative. For example, my coworkers, when I told them I was vegetarian in California took me to a restaurant. Of course, my manager ordered steak and he acted like he was killing it on the plate at the dinner table in front of me. I felt so upset, that I will not go out to eat with non-vegans. It was 20 years ago, but I felt that traumatized me. Where do I support as a new vegan? Also, as an older woman, I feel that young u tubers are hateful towards older people. Eventhough, they are vegan, they express hate towards middle-aged people which I have experienced. I'd like to find a vegan support group that not ageist. Big hugs and much love, from Texas!🤓❤❤

For the first time in my memory my lipid panel was normal, my A1C 6.0 and going down from 6.5, my joint pain down by at least 75%, my doctor saying it so far appears that I'm no longer with NAFLD or Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, no bloating, no gas pains, no constipation, no rectal bleeding, no sense of starving with weight loss... Why? On vegan diet I at least 3 times attempted weight loss and starving and gaining back more than before? On Carnivore Diet I've never felt hungry. Could it be my body type is more conducive to Carnivore Diet? Thanks for a great interview. I am a person who can look at myself, see I need change, and do so.

You should **not** have been starving on a vegan diet. One of the first rules on a Whole Foods Plant-based Diet is NEVER GO HUNGRY. Because veggies and fruits are lower in calories, you must consume starches like potatoes, rice and other grains along with a large serving of vegetables and you must eat to the full satisfaction of your hunger. If you broke that rule, there is no question you would fail. Read Dr. John McDougall and Dr. Michael Greger’s books. Essentially, you failed because you didn’t approach it correctly.

@@Daniel23544 Thank you very much for taking the time to consider me! If I have carbs my body converts them into sugar and then it's stored as fat. I went on Carnivore Diet for 2 years. I plateaued and was keeping 40lbs off. A lot of things improved but I am genetically predisposed to heart disease as my father died of a massive heart attack and my mother had a quadruple bypass. So on 5-3-24 I had a heart attack and a stent placed in my LAD artery in my heart. I'm on 93/7 grass-fed ground beef and veggies and just a little fruit as I am prediabetic. I'm also eating some Atkins candy at times. Does that sound good? During my hospital stay they put me on a lot of new meds (6) and concerned about that.

I love and respect Dr. Barnard so much! He seems such a great person. Awesome interview, Klaus! :D

[@AIIiecat]

Really great interview! Thank you for making a difference in the world! 😍

[@Xeirus911]

What an excellent interview. Good flow of questions, good follow ups, you never rushed to the next thing. Amazing job.

[@redd467]

I think you were right asking the pertinent question about blurring the message. The problem that these health professionals have is that they try to communicate a comprehensive message; everything from animal rights, to health and all the way to climate change is being thrown in. The problem with that is that people at some point stop listening and tell themselves "it can't be that bad to eat meat and dairy". This is especially sad because the message on health alone is so strong that it should blow everyone away.

Excellent interview. I really enjoy listening to Dr. Barnard speak. I went whole food plant based about 5 months ago. Down 25 lbs, never felt better.

[@lnew7994]

and now that I've finished watching...what a great focking interview! well done! some excellent questions and Dr. Neal Barnard is so poised in his responses. just awesome! so great to see the optimism side when we see a lot of the other on a daily basis! Cheers!

[@sharit7970]

FANTASTIC interview!! Dr. Barnard is not only a wealth of knowledge, but a very reasonable, compassionate and decent human being!

[@smallfootprint2961]

I love to listen to Dr. Barnard. Being easy to listen to about a subject that could make your mind wander, is quite an achievement. Thanks PBN for talking with him. Even as someone older who has been veg and vegan for years.... I need inspiration. He is inspiring... and informative.

[@JW4REnvironment]

It’s great that everyone can now learn about healthful diets thanks to Dr. Barnard. He is a great communicator whose positive approach is a model to us all. Many thanks to him and PCRM!

[@carinaschmitt1]

I love how open and honest this man is! He‘s an icon!

[@MissaLifeStyle]

That's absolutely true, my husband did the keto diet and even though he initially lost weight, his cholesterol went up.

[@jgrysiak6566]

Keto diets don't last long term. U will slowly get sick being in ketosis. Good for quick short term weight loss only!

[@SeskaLee]

Great interview! My favourite books for a healthy, sustainable and kind diet have all come from Dr. Barnard. My copies are 15+ years old and worse for wear because I have read them a few times and refer to their recipes on a near daily basis.

[@yaydenise]

Thank you so much for this great information. I'm newly vegan and I'm soaking in as much info as I can. This was a really great interview, the flow and relaxed manner was awesome. Thank you for this information.

[@BurtDavis]

It was seeing the thriving vegan athletes in the Game Changers the ultimately convinced me to make that change 2 years ago. I wish that I had not been so hard headed about my health, and made the changer earlier in my life, but it's understandable once you see that we've been lied to by the meat industry about needing meat. Everything about my health has gotten so much better. I see people now that are clearly sick and overweight and when I've tried to mention this diet, then get extremely defensive. It's obvious that a lot of people will continue to die early from poor diets of animal protein, and highly processed food.

[@spiritualawakening1111]

Wow amazing interview. You're such a good interviewer. Very interesting.

[@spiritualawakening1111]

Sure sounds fun. I can be a newsreader, I've got it in me. I'll be in touch shortly. ❤️

[@jamieirvine7248]

I became vegan February 2021, I never thought I would do it but since doing it I wish I had of done it sooner

[@chrishomer]

Absolutely fantastic. Dr Barnard is stalwart of veganism and the plant based diet, he's doing such a great job!

[@tinawerner4850]

What a breath of fresh air to hear a voice like Dr. Barnard's, who is very positive and even apologetically speaks against the egg industry's claims that cholesterol, ext. Great to hear someone with credibility staying positive. He and other MD' vegan advocates have changed my life and thousands of others. Thank you sir!

[@j2jenison]

Dr. Barnard's ability to stay level-headed, positive, and consistently choose integrity is what will make this movement push forward. I appreciate the questioning of this interview, but at times it seems that you wanted him to quickly name corruption, call people out, and essentially look down on the choices of others. However, Dr. Barnard's answers were wholesome every time. I think he understands that we will truly get nowhere if we bash other people. Let's all be more like Dr. Barnard!

[@marisaworsley2241]

I just loved the way He is trying hard to make people se we are what we put in our mouth..... he is the best!

[@alidalouisa4462]

again I am shocked! I love this man, he is so generous and sincere!

[@undergrace1808]

Thank you Dr. Neal for making the noise! A million times over:)

[@IGOR-wz8id]

Dr. Bernard is my hero!

[@BrookValentine]

Thank you both for your time. Had to smile ironically when KZbin popped up a local advert for cheese halfway through, right after the doctor mentioned giving up cheese. Still got a way to go. (WFPB diet follower for 6 months with no regrets)
