My name is Asan and I am 46 years old, I live in Kyrgyzstan. In June of this year, I was admitted to the hospital in a serious condition, I was diagnosed with delilitative cardiomyopathy. They prescribed treatment. So for some time I managed to improve my performance, nutrition, since I'm a vegan for 8 years, gymnastics breathing exercises. I have fasted a couple of times. I try to eat a lot of greens, I even taste unfamiliar greens from the garden, if not bitter, then I eat. Today I made a repeated echocardiogram, the results are very good, there is a great hope for improvement in the condition.
Listening to this I remembered that I had been diagnosed with - almost - hypothyroidism, with the advice to do a yearly check up. But now, having become plant based, my energy levels are so good that I had forgotten all about it :)
I bring my own food - vegan, high protein, high carb, extremely satisfying - to my races and particularly to the marathon. Indeed, the stuff they serve at the finish is usually disgusting. Even the bananas are rarely ripe. As for the chocolate milk myth, it drives me crazy when my coach lauds the benefits of it. You can't really say anything to people who absolutely swear by it, but again, I bring my own shelf stable soymilk, unsweetened, and a bag of dates for that protein/glucose recharge at the end.
That's Fantastic hope your fellow athletes friends see what you eat 😊
Awesome to hear. I'm in the same boat as an ultra runner I hate seeing all the junk food at the races. I also have to prepare food for marathons and ultras. One of my favorite is pretty close to what the Tarahumara long distant runners use
We love Dr. Barnard 💚 .
He's a cool doctor 😎.
Also chuck. He's an awesome host 👏. I love the great energy. 👍
In Australia: my son played soccer during primary school. Always, after a game and during carnivals the canteen sold pies, chippies, lollies, chocolates, soft drink. Used to make me furious and of course my son wouldn't eat the food I brought because the other children would tease him. Parents would say that they are replacing the energy/calories expended during a game, even parents of the overweight children.
I am type two diabetes but it’s been reversed four years ago because of healthy diet and exercise daily. Fasting daily 16 to 18 hours everyday it help my diabetes a lot.
Gratz! It's great to hear about people who solve problems that many are told by their doctors that they are permanent.
Thanks Dr.Bernard and chuck I love listening to you both love love educating us about health.♥️♥️👏👏👏
Loved listening while eating a delicious, low fat, inexpensive, homemade WFPB meal. Thanks Dr. Barnard!
I am the only person in my family who is a whole food plant-based eater the entire family got Covid I literally was eating at 6 PM and had lost my taste and smell at 10 PM had it back. I got no other symptoms and I have rheumatoid arthritis.My husband a diabetic sad eater was in the hospital ICU 11 days ,my son was a compromised immune system sick in bed 10 days and my perfectly healthy son again all Sad eaters sick for 10 days in bed.
Add moringa to your daily regimen, it's great for rheumatoid
Appreciate you both.
Good afternoon Mr. Carroll & Dr. Barnard, 👋🥰 Thank you for your much needed help, have a great day.
Another lovely discussion! Thank you to both of you.
Enjoy these. Love rice.
Lundberg brown and wild rice mix is my jam lol
This was fantastic!!!!! Learned so much.
The questions they come in are great!
Today I’m especially excited about Dr. Barnard’s answer concerning BREAD!
I haven't heard anything about diabetes from covid. Please tell us more.
Always learn something new when I watch!
Thank you, Dr. Barnard!
Very helpful, thank you.
Thank you for a wonderful session!👏❤🤨
this is AWESOME! back on 3/1/18 I tested positive for ANA with homogenous titer, which is indicative of lupus; I was already eating healthy and immediately went WFPB with raw food every other day alternating with a big pot of beans; the other day on 11/21/22 I had a new panel drawn for ANA and a host of autoantibody panels which all were NEGATIVE or otherwise insignificant values such as
Thank you for sharing this. I have Lupus and will take this to heart!
When I ran races in the 70s and 80s they had at the of the race .....watermelon ....oranges.....and bananas in California and Florida.....never saw chócale milk. Or pizza
We went to a sports centre in Spain called :La Santa that has iron man training camps. We could not find ANY plant based food in the shops or restaurants. Supermarket FULL of sweets and junk food.
Thank you so very much for sharing those informations you two 💖💖🌹🌹
Thank you so much🥰
Great info. and tips! Thank you!
Hey Jasmine G-D bless and speedy recovery you will make it and overcome we are all with you!
Not everyone needs to lose weight! Some of us need to GAIN weight but we get overlooked.
Take 2 tablespoons of extra virgin coconut oil per day. Cook with it, it's healthy despite what some say.
Do not take coconut oil. Super high in saturated fat. Increase your calories, with nuts and seeds take more flaxseed, and chia seed ,eat some walnuts or avocado.Eat the whole food, Do not take it in an oil form. Nut betters are also good. The problem with smoothies for most people is they add too many calories , for you that would be perfect. Use soy because it has a good protein and helpful effect for keeping you More healthy. That’ll make it easier for you to also get some calories as it runs about 100 cal per Glass.
Please comment on sugar implications on our immune system? Thank you
I eat a raw food diet but occasionally add beans toi my salads and I feel that a raw food diet is best. Hell, I killed diabetes that way.
So well Said Dr N Barnard if the Governments in the world just concentrated on healthy FOOD that will help people
Im listening to this drinking lemon lime water. I prefer to eat a firm banana. I don't eat bananas often cause of it sugar and fat content. Its great for energy. I enjoy picking my own fruits and veggies. I use to drink soy milk.
Any summary of the recommended foods more specific than WFPB? :)
Any speakers about the diet plays in osteoporosis?
Idea's for
Diabetes, kidney disease, fibromyalgia, heart disease. You talked about bread 🍞, how about sourdough
I fully believe with all my heart mind and soul because I am a whole foods plant-based eater that it entered a healthy body could not survive and left it .I’ve heard many whole food plant-based eaters say their opinion is of the same!
Well said. Couldn't agree more.
👌 👏 👍 information
Alana Daly asked in the chat about strategies for people with gout. I'm primarily plant based and I take a gout medication, but I still get flares/episodes. I would think I am more than sufficiently hydrated, avoiding meat, dairy, and HFCS. Is there a missing component or is it just a fact that it is going to flare somewhat regularly no matter what?
Try taking fruit out for a week or two. For some people, that's the trigger.
I have gout and every time I take high dose of vit c from food like lemon I get flare out. I found out that vitamin c help absorb iron in your body. I got a blood test and my ferritin was so high and I also found out that I carry a gene that is called hemochromatosis. Lots of people carry that gene without knowing it unless you get your dna tested and it’s genetic. There’s two types of iron, heme iron and non-heme iron so my doctor told me to stay away from red meat. I do whole plant based diet that stops my gout flare out and take very little lemon on my salad.
Comments about seniors diet?
Ooh I feel that way. I need a boost. I am on HBP medication. That weakens my immune. In menopause which also changes my hormones and am insulin resistant
I got off Gluten and my anxiety I struggled with all my life went completely away. Gluten inflammation targets the brain for some reason. It's a processed food so glad I don't eat it no more.
I wanted to add when they stripped the haul from the brown to the white they stripped off a lot of the arsenic ya but also most of the omega 6 to make the omega 3 to 6 ratio a lot better. I would recommend not getting the fortified verities, you can put the vitamins and fiber back in by adding veggies.
Thank you Doctor for the answers regarding bread. Now I can buy Rye bread.
You know what is really good for health?beans and rice that have protein in them
Would be okay to take probiotics, after taking 3 different courses of antibiotics, after resistente skin infection, for a pt who has chronic low WBC count?
And what about raw foods for those immunocompromised people?
Original olive oil was used to clean the body, not internally externally. It only became a food when they decided that was a better way to sell it since they were starting to wash now and you soap.
HI the question about zinc and it being hard on the stomach: Vimergy Zinc is the gentlest I have found. It is worth the thirty dollars.
Buy the tablets and break them in half or whatever you need to make it work for you.
I agree with the medical student who said becoming vegan was the best decision he has ever made. It is the best decision I ever made (except for my children). :)
I am 90% WFPB but some healthy vegetables that are high in histamine keep me awake at night. Is there any way to combat this problem besides avoiding tomatoes, mushrooms, strawberries, etc?
Grapes are good for sleeping 😴
Interesting. I had no idea this could be a problem. Thank you. Do you have a source/list of high histamine foods?
@@smallfootprint2961 This issue is mentioned, with strategies to deal with it, in the fiber fueled cookbook.
@@k.h.6991 ... Thank you.
good question, lots of the wfpb foods i enjoy are high in histamines
Please discuss how cooking causes inflammation and whether a raw food diet is better for autoimmune diseases and people fighting cancer.
High heat, oil cooking is no good, but making water or broth based dishes on a lower heat is not a problem. Cooked foods, together with raw, is very beneficial, very nourishing. Especially when you're unwell or weak.
@@lf7065 , Should someone with cancer be worried about eating fruits that are high glycemic ?
@@Butterfly-1028 I had cancer, and I find fruit very beneficial for me. Refined sugars are not good. Fruits contain vitamins and polyphenols that are health supportive. 🙂
@@lf7065 , Thanks. I thought so, and I also see information from Chris beat cancer about it, but I'm just having a hard time trying to convince a "keto minded" family member, athletic 20 year old, now with cancer and blood clots...
@@Butterfly-1028 I am so sorry this is happening to such a young person! There is hope. Many people have healed themselves from cancer. Chris beat Cancer is a great resource!
“Chocolate” doubles Stem Cells when consumed regularly!
Not all breast cancers are hormone-related. I had triple negative breast cancer, which has NO hormone involvement.
Could you please talk about when to take supplements and with what? I.e
D3 after a meal?
@Aaron Loos you know that even omnivores are often deficient in D3 and B12. Look at how many patients have to get a routine B12 injection, and you can be sure they're not a vegan majority. Everyone could benefit from supplementing with these 2 vitamins. Also consider that they may not want to eat an omnivore diet because they don't like: cholesterol, eostrogen, blood, inflammatory proteins and many other gross shit
@Aaron Loos phytoestrogens are nowhere near as bad as mammalian oestrogen, which is found in meat and especially in dairy.
Yes factory farmed animals are fed b12 supplements, but omnivores don't just eat meat. They also eat vegetables. And due to farming practices in the last few centuries, the soil has become barren of b12 and that's why the only way people typically get it is through eating animal products, or supplementing. So yes actually, many adults regardless of diet choice are deficient in b12.
Regarding D3, well it does also depend on where you live. But I live in the UK and vitamin D deficiency is obviously quite high since we get low sunlight
Edit: seed oils, refined grains and all that other shit aren't exclusive to vegan diets. Literally look at the labels of any junk food or processed foods. You are going to find those there. You can avoid these by eating a whole food plant based diet whilst supplementing b12 and whatever else may be appropriate
@Aaron Loos your b12 levels are fine because you are able to get enough in your personal diet. You most likely get it from meat. However this isn't the case for a noticeable amount of people, and this group doesn't just consist of vegetarians and vegans.
Yeah chickens (the most commonly consumed meat) and pigs only require meat if they're not in pastures. Over 90% of chickens and pigs are factory farmed, so this means the majority of chickens and pigs are fed b12. I don't understand why you think this is some "gotcha vegans moment".
The fact is, the original poster clearly wants to avoid all the constituents of animal products that promote auti immunity, cancer, diabetes, stroke, high blood pressure, alzheimers, and the list goes on. You have nothing to say to defend having shit like cancer promoting growth factors, so instead you list a bunch of constituents that are still commonly found in an omnivore diet as some weak clapback, even though some of those are actually beneficial (phytoestrogens in soy literally are beneficial in breast cancer)
@Aaron Loos I think I didn't word myself well there. What I'm trying to say that regardless of whether you eat animal products or not, supplementing with b12 can be beneficial as deficiencies present in both the standard western omnivorous and (more so with) vegan diets. Not everyone gets blood work done and knows what they're deficient in, so I think there's no harm in taking a b12 supplement. And also look, I said "could" not "should".
Edit: Considering how b12 deficiency is relatively common, and such a deficiency results in lethargy and long-term neurological damage, suggesting to the wider population thar b12 supplementation alongside their diet isn't harmful advice at all.
Olive oil is surely a good fat used for centuries in Meditterenian diet. The doctor's response please.
Hello
I wish I could talk to someone
Speak with a nutritionist
Sorry, 🙊can you get ready ... 🙈Click the CC button at the top of the video to activate the Italian subtitles !!! thank you very much 🙏🏻 Vegan 🌱 💙
Also smoking increased your COVID-19 patients
Vegan bread ? So what's in the regular bread that makes it not vegan ??
😍
What should I do if I look and FEEL fantastic with lowish bmi on medium carb high animal intake diet, yet get fat on highcarb no fat WFPB diet and feel constantly hungry and exhausted with severe food cravings despite eating fresh prepared complex carbs only?
So what do I chose? Great energy and satiating foor for 30years and die of heartdisease.
Or feeling wobbly, spacey and thinking about food all day on HFLC WFPB raising my weight but avoid potential heartdisease? xD
Tried Esselstyns for 3 months and I'd rather stick to animal products and just waterfast every other month since I find that way easier LOL. Quality of life is just insane.
Why are you trying to eat high fat low carbm

Why do you assume those benefits will last for 30 years?
Best to get cholesterol/ BP/ liver/ kidneys etc checked every once in a while to see if you're ok, don't know how to check for the cancer though
Don't beans fill you up?
Cucumber, Sellerie juice, Quinoa, sweet potatoes, Cantaloupe and a lot of greens, ty
@@karunamayiholisticinc because they cook with oil, eat butter on their roti. Paneer. Drink milk and tea. Plenty of fat
As a vegan I've got problems to reach the right amont of protein with muscle sarcopenia in the long run. I' m not a squirrel spending my day chewing peanuts or somethig similar.
Beans and peas are very high in protein!
@@lf7065 to reach the daily proteins amount you 've got to eat 2.5 poundsof beans. You understand that' s a very hard goal to catch.Herbivorous animals spend all day long eating vegetables to get their proteins needing.Even with a varied diet try to estimate the amount of protein you get every day and you could easily realize that you are wanting in this nutrient.
@@francomalankini7052 How many grams per day do you require? I understand that the daily requirement is your desired bodyweight in kilograms × .8
@@lf7065 that's quite right.
Difficult to reach such an amount.
@@francomalankini7052 What? How so? For me, it works out to 43 grams of protein a day. Easily done!!! I usually get closer to 60 grams per day.

I was interested to NOT hear you recommend whole-grain bread.
Lots of sodium in breads!
Brown bread is better
and a high glycemic index too
Try "Ezekiel low sodium bread" it has zero grams of sodium, unfortunately it tastes like shit .
Eating my homemade deer sausage 🤷🏽♂️. At least I'm drinking tea 🤣.
That’s not true.. meat does have vitamin C (liver) also vitamin C and carbs like to compete with each other, so if you’re not eating a lot of carbs then you don’t need as much vitamin C🤷🏼♀️
The sadder news is that I think the narrative of "high cholesterol is not bad at all" is starting to affect doctors in my part of the world...The evidenceless keto fad is coming... I noticed this because it was the first time I ever heard my doctor said: "high cholesterol is probably not a problem " during my annual physical exam. I was like REALLY, doc?
Yeah it's not. The calcification of your arteries is a problem though with veganism. People that have the highest cholesterol live longer. Look it up.
Dr. Sarcopenia is back! Cmon guys just look at this dude. No muscle. Even can't maintain enough in the neck. He's clearly wasting away.
As much as I love this channel, can we please stop pushing the jab that has caused so many health issues in people, not to mention a very short duration of immunity.
Ugh. Evolution. What evidence led you to believe in Darwinian Evolution?
You should focus on eating a plant based diet rather than stuff that you can't change.
@@stanleyniezrecki2469 I've been on a WFPB vegan diet since 6/9/2018.
