I had an MD at work literally get angry because during my new hire physical at age 50 (I'm now 54) she found out I took zero medications! She insisted that all 50 year olds needed drugs. WTF?! Ummm...no. I'm a thin long term vegan with low blood pressure and cholesterol.
I had a Dr. prescribe drugs. I acted like he was helping me and thanked him. I never filled the prescription. I went back to the Dr for a checkup, told him I was taking my meds. He told me I was doing much better and to keep up the good work. I told him I lied and never took the meds. The look on his face was priceless.
Good on you… this can be distorted but doctors are glorified somewhat like hot girls that boys constantly lie to lol if you actually hit someone with the truth and they aren’t used to it…. It’s hard not to come off a certain way, but I bet you succeeded and did it the right way lol that doc needed it lol truth deficiencies are real
This really resonated with me. So I left Western Medicine 5 years ago and went to alternative medicines. I've always been a small-boned woman and they insisted I LOST bone mass --- when they never did a bone density scan before! This is the way I've always been but they were comparing me to a woman who naturally had larger bones. The MD told me I had NO CHOICE and had to be on Fosamax. I walked out and never went back. That was 15 years ago.
John McDougall is a hero in my book also. He tells us the truth for free. I wish the truth about food and medications that are in most cases are not needed. Most of the time it's the food. So grateful for this truth teller
The more I learn the more I question the profession I chose. Such an internal conflict! Our health care system really seems to be designed to keep us sick. I feel like I was brainwashed in school.
Well here in the UK we have this National Health Service , which is really a National Sickness service , that even in ' normal ' times is close to being overwhelmed . People might note that despite the NHS we have done badly per capita in terms of covid related deaths . Life expectancy is about 80 ( unless you are born poor and remain poor when it is about 70 ) but healthy life expectancy is about 60 . Sadly it took a TV chef Jamie Oliver to campaign for better childhood nutrition .
That's because years ago pharma (now big pharma), healthcare (now modern medicine) and education (an indoctrination program) was taken over by john d. rockefeller and it became money making & enslaving industries. He made sure holistic treatments (original healthcare and natural medicine) was ridiculed and demonized. He once even was a snake oil salesman.
you feel like you were lied to? more like you were lied to. plain and simple. look into the Rockefeller connection to the American medical system for some enlightenment... iirc James Corbett's video on the subject offers a decent summary
As a pharmacist for 40 years, I see there are more defined diseases, more drugs treatments for more defined medical conditions. Drug benefits are studied and promoted much more than bad side effects. The bottom line is to have a healthy lifestyle to delay/ prevent diseases by practicing 3 things: eat healthy, have plenty of physical activity, and mental relaxation. Cheers.
the free documetary on you tube "Super juice me"....shows the power of good clean food &exercise also the free documentary called "Sick, fat & nearly dead" on their site with the same name. Both are powerful reminders that what you stated eat healthy, physical activity & mental relaxation is the keys to life.
65 yrs young and no drugs , the doctor tried tricking me with that osteoporosis stuff and I wasn't having it, my body is healthy she prescribed a very dangerous medication and I immediately canceled it, I turned into a fitness person 17 yrs ago and I'm just fine. No meds or anything. Funny thing is I just had a extremely hard fall on my roller skates on the sidewalk and nothing broken.
I love it when they throw statistics at me. I've taken statistics both as an undergrad and a graduate student... There are three kinds of lies, damned lies, and statistics." - Benjamin Disraeli My medicine cabinet is in the garden along with my pantry.
"for the stage of osteoporosis she shouldn't be standing ..it's her muscles that keeping her up " the doctor said about my mum who grew up in the mountains and did physical work including carrying heavy loads all her life . And she was given a hysterectomy in her late forties with no follow up or medications. She is 84 now and still going .
It is getting to be a dangerous world. If there is money to be made someone will find a way to trick people into spending there money for what they are selling.
I need time to absorb this information! It probably hasn’t got anything to do with me if the test was carried out on a 28 year old white woman. I’m a black older healthy woman taking no drugs/medication at all!
Love this video. Several years ago I removed myself from medications. They tried to get me to take meds for bones density . I refused. Should have never had test ,results follow me now. I'm a vegan now and am trying to keep improving my health.
I had a massive fight with my mother's doctor over all the crap he had prescribed for her. I got her off soooo many medications by fighting for her. He had her on far too many meds she did not need. And to add insult to injury, I changed her primary care doc to one who LISTENED to her. Boy, am I bitch. **L** I take no medications at 61.
thank you so much for this... I have shared with a family member who was about to get treatment for osteoporosis and at the very least she has promised to increase her healthful food - hopefully she will reconsider the medications as well... So you have definitely done good in the world by sharing...
Thank you so much Dr. MacDougal, for telling us the truth. I worked in the medical field; learned a lot.. Saw & heard stuff that would curl your hair! But I also met some very fine, loving doctors. Want a good laugh? I tried to became a "detail person," selling those drugs, because the pay seemed a whole lot better. I'm so glad those doors stayed closed in my face! I would have been duped & contributing to the demise of others.
Sir i love you. You have changed my life, i got myself out of the business of pharmaceutical drugs by just reading your books and watching your videos. Being healthy is so simple. I watched your talk with Dr Biswaroop roy .. great Thanks
Our hero: Dr. John McDougall! Thanks for always speaking the truth regardless of how it is received by the community of traditional medical professionals.
When you are prescribed any medicin, always look up the nnt (number needed to treat). Preferably only use medication with low nnt numbers, especially if there are serious side effects. Medication against bone fractures only has a reason able to good nnt in case you had a fracture before, and then especially if it regards vertebral issues.
I think my doctor gets money to push Humira he also sent the Humira to a different drug store that I never used so they would get the $5000. for the medication. I called and had the medication sent to my usual drug store. That was so sneaky.
Thanks for the authentic & informative video. I don't have a bone density problem but it was interesting. Could you please do a video on mental health drugs & diagnoses? Thank you
Hi VegSource, The Courage Of This Doctor Is Admirable and I Admire That! It's not that we don't need Doctors nor Does it mean We Don't Need A Vegan Life Style. What it does mean is We Need The Right Information (as this Doctor is giving) in every aspect of Life to Live and Perform Well. Thanks For Posting This Video!!!
One thing they never mention are the many side effects of the drugs they prescribe. I started having hallucinations in the middle of the night recently. I had to research and found out that the anti-depressant Amitriptyline I was prescribed several years ago for my fibromyalgia was causing them. As soon as I quit taking them, the hallucinations stopped along with other side effects I had not realized were being caused by the drug. I also take the muscle relaxer, Tizanidine for the fibro. I'm not sure I want to continue taking that since it has some not too pleasant side effects as well.
I am disgusted. Mom was a vibrant active woman, living on her own. She walked vigorously 3 miles everyday. She had a social life and was an avid book reader. She took a bone density scan and was given the results. Unbeknownst to me and my siblings she agreed to receive the injections to treat her bone density. Within a month she was bent over, swollen feet and now is basically a shut in. There was NOTHING wrong with her, there was no reason to inject her with a chemical to treat a nonexistent bone density issue.
My Endo was not happy that I stopped taking Levothyroxine, 2 months ago, because it was causing side effects (excess daytime sweating, night sweats, and mid-day drowsiness). These side effects, literally, stopped when I stopped taking Levo. My TPO antibodies have dropped from 400 to 60 in the last 4 years, after I took out my IUD. I was told that the IUD didn't cause the Hashimoto's, but that is the only thing I eliminated out of my body. Only other medication I take is for insomnia due to PTSD from the military and I'm not vegan. I have no high cholesterol, blood pressure is around 95-100. I take an iodine supplement, because I don't eat shellfish.
i take no drugs. I'm past 76. I do a lot of exercise and some horse riding and about 6 years ago, I was about 69, I came off the pony when he was cantering and he did an unexpected sharp turn and I fell hard on my back onto wet sand on the beach - very hard !! I was a bit stiff and sore for a while, but nothing broken as luckily I didn't put my arms out, also wearing a thick jacket and hat. I feel that if my bones had been brittle I would surely have broken something.
Love this information - thank you. I have felt bullied by my OB-GYN because I refuse to have a bone density scan. Next time, I'll be sharing this information with him.
I was diagnosed with Osteopenia at 27 as I was quite underweight and looking back was suffering an eating disorder and I was vegan, but I ate very little amounts and have a high metabolism. I also had amenorrhea for many years. After years of this I was exhausted staying that thin and accepted myself as is. Now 45 going full circle brainwashed into Paleo for a few years I’m back full plant based vegan as it’s my default naturally. Ive done a lot of sport and extreme things over my years and NEVER broken a bone in my body and about 10 years ago read somewhere about the body density test being BS and never got retested after gaining back to a healthy weight. I feel as Good if not better as I did when I was 20 !
Thankyou so much for this information I'm about to go and see my doctor tomorrow as my bone density is abit low but I'm 67 years old eat a wfpb diet get excercise and so I'm now going to start to lift a few weights for body strength I can jump run do all sorts and my back is strong and straight looking my vit d naturally from the sun is 89 so I reckon I'm ok but I feel my doc will suggest the drug but thanks to your video I definitely wont be talked into it thanks heaps for all this information
Despite repeated attempts by me and my sister to ween her away from him, my Mum insisted on worshiping a Doctor who prescribed every imaginable Drug and test for her many conditions. She blindly took everything he prescribed for years until her body couldn't take any more...she eventually couldn't even sit on the toilet without losing her balance. When she finally collapsed and was taken to hospital the admitting Junior Doctor almost fell over when he was presented with the list of Medications she was consuming. He called his superior who immediately asked for details of her General Practitioner to question him about his killer list. She was taken off most of the dangerous [some extraneous] medications but the damage had been done....and she died a few months later. Lessons to be learned: Doctors are not God, not all Doctors are looking out for your best interests and some Doctors could be swayed by Pharma Reps offering a variety of gifts and perks.
My Mom started having seizures. She did have dementia and had just been put on a new drug for that. She ended up in the hospital and was taken off all medications. The seizures stopped. She lived a couple more years anyway. I know what you mean by worshiping doctors. She was still quoting her previous doctors recommendations. He was dead! And her next doctor I had to call and tell him she had dementia. She could hold it together for the few minutes he saw her.
During pregnancy, a woman loses bone mass because the fetus absorbs calcium and other minerals as it develops in the womb. This is why during that time she should take supplements like calcium, overnight, because that is the time she will lose the most bone material, and it is the time the body will automatically absorb the calcium, etc. it needs.
My pain doctor agree with me to get the vaccine shot first and wait for a while before deciding to take the Humira. I am not going to take the Humira at all. I need my immune system to be as strong as possible.
I'm very ill and I cannot get proper medical care. I have good insurance and have been to many specialists. Over three years ago I was diagnosed with ckd stage 3. I've been in full body pain, severe lymph node swelling, doctors will not provide me with test results. I do not want a bunch of drugs and no one will tell me what is gong on.
@VegSource: can you please clarify what he said about acid? Dr. Esselstyn and Dr. Greger suggest to eat balsamico vinegar every day. It has 6% acid. So should we use vinegar and lemon juice or avoid it?
What was true then is true today - and moreso. There are more gimmicks, dangerous drugs and medications today than 15 years ago. Pharmaceutical industry has perfected their operation.
Bones are not for storage. Duh. At that age we are raising children. 28 is definitely not your EARLY (emphasis his) reproductive years. Now I agree afaik with his conclusion about disease mongering. But accepting "wrong stuff" rota your ability to think. Nuff said. Say no to your doctor when you want.
I’ve been doing the diet for 2 weeks the first week my blood sugar was normal but now I’m fainty Waking up sweating and really dizzy can’t look at light am I dying? I used no oils only sugar rice potato’s etc
Conservative medicine is the name of this practice. Women especially can look for books by Dr Robert Mendelson. And his newsletter too if you can find it. It was called The People's Doctor.
It's true for medicine, chiropractors and dentists. They have become for big profit businesses and not for the patients. Like we now know of education, it's not for the kids, but for providing incomes for teachers and the administrators.
@@sassuki Laughable. Tell this to Patrik Baboumian or Kendrick Farris or any other vegan strongman/body builder. How can you say you need animal protein when there is so much proof out there that you absolutely don't?
Give me a good readon why you need to buld muscle???. It wont help you in old age ( have you seen Arnold Mr olympaid), its not muscle but ligment whoch will carry you. Bulding muscle is only for looks.
Here he is talking about the vaccine. He’s taking a wait and see attitude, as he did 10 years ago with swine flu:,instagram.com/tv/CI8vxBSJ7gS/?igshid=1cofeicgrpmwe
The fact that we can no longer easily search the ingredients but have to wave through hundreds of properganda "just trust us" type websites, Should be a huge Red Flag to all.
@@Pedro2NR i started diet about two months ago. I am eating only potatoes and some little fruit like banana and apples and some berries occasionally I make some veggie soup with carrots parsley celery and potatoes.
@@B_lindFaith That is good. There was another instance where someone who started this diet had issues with their thyroid. Their Dr. wanted to put them on medication for life but got checked again later and was normal. It could be your body trying to clean out. Keep getting it check and also limit your banana intake. Good luck friend.
Evidently the LDL (bad) cholesterol has two types. Only one causes plaque deposits. The test to differentiate them costs $500 so Doctors just say that you have bad Cholesterol. Triglycerides are a better test of your heart risk.
With the exception of the kick backs to the general population and they will defiantly try and change your opinion , who would disagree. Basic common knowledge more invoved than a couple bottles of doctor's wood the rest is around the corner.
Horrible dacoits.in olden days doctors were very honest.they would subscribe minimum drugs.nowadays atleast four or five med are prescribed for simple ailments .tests are endless.
I had an MD at work literally get angry because during my new hire physical at age 50 (I'm now 54) she found out I took zero medications! She insisted that all 50 year olds needed drugs. WTF?! Ummm...no. I'm a thin long term vegan with low blood pressure and cholesterol.
If ain't broke why fix it lol
What did she want you to take... let me guess a statin
I am just like you! 54 no meds, longterm vegan. Let's keep surprising them!
They tell that to all women.
My doctor told me the same.

Oh, how I love you, Dr. McDougall. You are my favorite!! Keep spreading the message!!🌱💚💪😘
Oh god how I wish more people would listen ❤️❤️❤️
I love you Dr. McDougall.
I need time to absorb this information! It probably hasn’t got anything to do with me if the test was carried out on a 28 year old white woman. I’m a black older healthy woman taking no drugs/medication at all!
Well make sure you go get tested so the doctor can tell you if you are sick or not. We would not want you to think you are healthy of your own accord.
You can come back in a couple weeks too my ratings are down, and i need new tires for the old car.
Love this video. Several years ago I removed myself from medications. They tried to get me to take meds for bones density . I refused. Should have never had test ,results follow me now. I'm a vegan now and am trying to keep improving my health.
STATINS. Arthroscopic surgery. Osteoporosis medicine. My favorite: making menopause a disease. Shit, it's freedom!
I'm now 73 and I take zero medications and my doctor says it is great for me !

Its interesting that he mentioned two thirds of women may suffer of --Bd
My pain doctor agree with me to get the vaccine shot first and wait for a while before deciding to take the Humira. I am not going to take the Humira at all. I need my immune system to be as strong as possible.
Thank you!
I'm very ill and I cannot get proper medical care. I have good insurance and have been to many specialists. Over three years ago I was diagnosed with ckd stage 3. I've been in full body pain, severe lymph node swelling, doctors will not provide me with test results. I do not want a bunch of drugs and no one will tell me what is gong on.
Love this!!
Nice to hear TRUTH delivered by someone with conviction....subscribed!!
Love all this info!
@VegSource: can you please clarify what he said about acid? Dr. Esselstyn and Dr. Greger suggest to eat balsamico vinegar every day. It has 6% acid. So should we use vinegar and lemon juice or avoid it?
Thanks Lauren. That’s exactly what I’m doing. My biggest problem now is not being able to sleep at night. I am off all statins. My dr will be angry.
You are an angel incarnate❤️❤️❤️👌
This 2005 info. Has medicine and diet research not advanced in 16 years?
What was true then is true today - and moreso. There are more gimmicks, dangerous drugs and medications today than 15 years ago. Pharmaceutical industry has perfected their operation.
Same drugs that were dangerous than are still used today.
Bones are not for storage. Duh.
At that age we are raising children. 28 is definitely not your EARLY (emphasis his) reproductive years.
Now I agree afaik with his conclusion about disease mongering. But accepting "wrong stuff" rota your ability to think.
Nuff said. Say no to your doctor when you want.
God Bless you ❤️
Why do people get this but don’t get that doctors can lie to you about the V word?! Plus V’s aren’t vegan.
Dr. McDougall rules.
He's gonna have a massive following after he passes!
I’ve been doing the diet for 2 weeks the first week my blood sugar was normal but now I’m fainty Waking up sweating and really dizzy can’t look at light am I dying? I used no oils only sugar rice potato’s etc
What diet are you doing ?
Its all about money. The same with all virus
scamdemics.
Very true
Conservative medicine is the name of this practice. Women especially can look for books by Dr Robert Mendelson. And his newsletter too if you can find it. It was called The People's Doctor.
It's true for medicine, chiropractors and dentists. They have become for big profit businesses and not for the patients. Like we now know of education, it's not for the kids, but for providing incomes for teachers and the administrators.
What's the best thing to take to help build muscle mass over 50? I'm hearing of hmb???
I know the best thing to do is to lift weights.🙂
Lift weights!
@@sassuki I'm plant based and don't prefer to eat any animal products on a frequent basis. So, any other suggestions???
@@sassuki Laughable. Tell this to Patrik Baboumian or Kendrick Farris or any other vegan strongman/body builder. How can you say you need animal protein when there is so much proof out there that you absolutely don't?
Give me a good readon why you need to buld muscle???. It wont help you in old age ( have you seen Arnold Mr olympaid), its not muscle but ligment whoch will carry you. Bulding muscle is only for looks.
It's ok I lie to my doctor too.
What’s your opinion on the COVID 19 vaccine?
UA-cam shows this video was posted 6 days ago. In what year was this video recorded?
2005.
I would like Dr McDougall to voice an opinion on vaccines.
Here he is talking about the vaccine. He’s taking a wait and see attitude, as he did 10 years ago with swine flu:,instagram.com/tv/CI8vxBSJ7gS/?igshid=1cofeicgrpmwe
@@vegsource Thank you for this quick response. I had indeed watched that before but forgotten.
The fact that we can no longer easily search the ingredients but have to wave through hundreds of properganda "just trust us" type websites,
Should be a huge Red Flag to all.
Another Vegan superstar
I am on a high carb diet and no fat. And I feel great with my RA but I have a high cholesterol ...why is that? Could it be from a high carb?
How long have you been doing it?
What do you typically eat?
@@Pedro2NR i started diet about two months ago. I am eating only potatoes and some little fruit like banana and apples and some berries occasionally I make some veggie soup with carrots parsley celery and potatoes.
@@B_lindFaith That is good. There was another instance where someone who started this diet had issues with their thyroid. Their Dr. wanted to put them on medication for life but got checked again later and was normal. It could be your body trying to clean out. Keep getting it check and also limit your banana intake. Good luck friend.
@@Pedro2NR Yes, bananas contain too much sugar (carbs). Good advise.
Evidently the LDL (bad) cholesterol has two types. Only one causes plaque deposits. The test to differentiate them costs $500 so Doctors just say that you have bad Cholesterol. Triglycerides are a better test of your heart risk.
With the exception of the kick backs to the general population and they will defiantly try and change your opinion , who would disagree.
Basic common knowledge more invoved than a couple bottles of doctor's wood the rest is around the corner.
Horrible dacoits.in olden days doctors were very honest.they would subscribe minimum drugs.nowadays atleast four or five med are prescribed for simple ailments .tests are endless.
