      @@sylmacg1 That could be true. But for person in their 60s the benefits of going keto might far outweigh the risks. Moreover, these studies cannot be applicable to all the ethnic groups around the world. There might be humans who would perform quite well on such a diet. Recently I came across a news where a population that had been vegetarian for a long time has been found to be producing vitamin B12 in their body. Humans have changed their diets a lot and people have varying degrees of adaptability to various diets. We can only know the truth if people try different things and settle on something that works for them. That way even if it doesn't work it would be their decision and their learning. Isn't that what life is about? There are too many factors which cannot be controlled for in an experiment. I just can't accept suggestions from people like Mr. Mike who have such strong biases.

      I love tempeh. It's better for folks over 60 it's not set in calcium like tofu, some is set in magnesium but most tofu is set in calcium which is often contaminated with lead and calcium supplements can cause strokes, heart attacks, dementia and brittle bones in people over 60. Tempeh is very good source of protein and fibef plus more

      Follow this video and you should have success. Make sure the beans are separated from the hulls, make sure the temperature is warm enough when you start the tempeh. Make sure the beans are not too wet when you start to make the tempeh. I do not use a hot water bath, I use a heat matt with a thermostat. Good luck!

    Hey Dr Greger, I am an absolute staunch vegan of over 20 years, never going back, feeling better than ever etc etc etc!!! :) I have a question... about the "plant protein" vs "animal protein"... Did the studies that you mention use plant protein isolates measured against animal protein? I answer as I have absolutely no doubt that when eating "whole foods", plants win out over animal products every time but I wonder when it comes to meat substitutes and plant protein isolates... Could they *perhaps* be as harmful ( if all things were equal - ie saturated fat etc... ) due to lack of fibre? I think it would be a bit far fetched ( probably to say the least... ) that they would be but just wondering if you have any further info along these lines of thought... I personally am very active and so apart from daily legume consumption, also have a plant protein shake daily ( either soy or pea protein isolate... ) so i am interested in data that concerns isolated plant proteins... thanks in advance for any help and for all that you do... ♥ PS lol, now that i have finished posting ( so that I didn't lose my train of thought... ) and continued to listen to the podcast, I see that you address exactly this point!!! I will leave my question/thoughts up regardless and any further info is much appreciated...

      An excellent point. I was at a vegan Vietnamese restaurant the other day and had a conversation with the owner. He said he quickly lost new customers after they realized they could make their own vegan food at home. I find most food at vegan restaurants to not be as healthy as what I make at home. Most of them go out of business too despite the increasing numbers of vegans or at least consumption of vegan foods.

He had no heart disease or cancer despite living to 94. I eat mostly healthy vegan food. I do eat a little fish and seafood. Have found my medical tests are better when I'm 90% vegan than 100%. It's not supposed to be that way but it is. Maybe the healthiest lifestyle is mostly but not completely vegan.

    @andymullarx6365 3 роки тому

    Well eating fish chicken turkey or even pork is already a compromise as cattle require so much space and feed and labor to process into a food product. So if more people opt for fish and poultry as their meat sources and reduce or eliminate beef for instance it would seem to make a big difference and if enough of us make those choices on our own we might not have to eliminate it for a minority of consumers that won't give up or reduce their red meat intake. Lab meat no thanks, I'd sooner eat a natural substitute and I have.

      Many analogues are made from whole plants and contain beneficial compounds while limiting saturated fat and sodium and eliminating cholesterol and food- borne pathogens(E. Coli, Trichina, Salmonella, etc.). They just use manufacturing processes beyond the abilities of a home kitchen. I'm a trained cook who experiments with making analogues at home at great cost of time, equipment wear and tear, and utilities, so I'm speaking with my professional hat on rather than my vegan eater hat on.
