So he does not like HRT seriously?!!! the way I feel now on HRT is lifesaving , it changed everything!!!
I am happy to hear that Yanet and u feel the same way
While really like to Greger, I don’t agree with everything he says and we need to do our own research
. I'm 73 and have never used hrt.my skin looks great, I eat soy, I don't eat animal products, I feel fantastic have good ,muscle tone, good energy, sleep great. To much risk with hrt
If has not done extensive research on HRT then he should not comment on it bcs he’s taking us back to the old fears and demagoguery. I won’t be giving it up.
Before I've finished this video I've just heard from comments he discredits hrt and doesn't like tret? Hmmm I won't be buying his book!!
I work with physician, I use bio identical hormones. It has improved my quality of life.
Hi Julie, same here! This is why I say we need to do our own research
x
Bio identical hormones absolutely changed my life. I was miserable with hot flashes and night sweats and mood swings. I completely disagree with him about the research. I’ve read copious research that supports bioidentical hormone replacement therapy done correctly.
@@pamorama I am glad to hear that HRT has helped you so much. Same here, and I will def. continue taking them. This is why I say we need to do our own research.
xx
@@pamoramathank you. I feel the same. For me is quality instead of quantity
Dang! When I first saw this I was so excited you’re having one of my most trusted medical professionals on! I read his first books. But then during the interview I noticed he has very different ideas about longevity and skin, spf, and menopause than most of us in the skincare community. What gives?! Is he only an expert within his own field and we should take his age related stuff with a grain of salt? Or should we I now question everything. I hate it when educated professional opinions don’t align because no one has time to deep dive every single issue… sigh
Hi Anita, it can be super frustrating and I don't think we will ever get all the experts to agree, which is why it is so important to do our own research.
x
I love him. I always wonder what the conversation would be like if he and Dr. Gabriel Lyon were in the same room.😮 it is so confusing when it comes to protein.
@@jjlol7457 I would love to hear them have a conversation!
Wow..his opinions on two of the loudest messages we're hearing today. Increase Protein and HRT aren't recommended. It's all so confusing
Hi Rhonda, I agree it’s so confusing. This is why we really need to do our own research.
Hey beautiful Claudia! 😊❤What an interesting interview… My mind was spinning with the whirlwind of information and facts I hadn’t heard. Thank you… I’m definitely going to look at that book. And I agree with your point about doing our own research and balancing out what we know to be true for ourselves personally. 😘❤️
@@saraf1084 hi gorgeous Sara, so nice to hear from you. And I’m glad you enjoyed this. ❤️
It is not confusing. Just eat healthy. No sugar. No smoking. Exercise wear sunscreen. Eat natural foods that God created. Not processed. Check out the Biblical Nutritionist on UA-cam.
I find him interesting and well informed in many ways, but there’s something offputting about his presentation for me. I do appreciate that he says your own resource and that it’s your body your choice.
I met the amazing Dr Greger in London, he is fabulous, I've followed him for many years, and it was the most exciting honour to meet him 💚
Hi Carrie, how cool that you got to meet him in real life.

This is not in any way judgemental about those who take HRT. I had an easy menopause, was never offered it so I can't speak from the perspective of suffering the way some women do with menopausal symptoms. However I was always concerned about the over stimulation of oestrogen. Maybe the body knows what it's doing by slowing down the production after a certain number of years to avoid triggering cancer cells. There has been an undeniable increase in oestrogen cancers, breast, ovarian etc since the introduction of HRT. Is that coincidental? I don't know. But i feel if you don't need it for horrific symptoms but basically taking it for vanity reasons, i would beware. It literally had zero effect on my skin when my levels dropped. I've been without it for 20 years and I'm OK 😊
Yes, he just said he's not against it but worried about the potential risk. And want women to be aware of it. I think that's very reasonable.
You are very lucky to have had no symptoms. Some women suffer terribly, to the point where live seems to not be worth living any more.
Regarding the rise in cancer you mentioned. I think there could be many reasons for it. We live longer and have better screening. We are also bombarded by toxins and xenohormones.
There are some cancer experts who have seen less recurrence of cancer in patients who are on HRT. Dr Mathis mentions his colleague, a breast cancer oncologist, frequently. She has had a longterm ongoing study with her patients and has witnessed the above.
That being said, we all need to inform ourselves and do what is right for us.
I am really happy for you to have sailed through it so easily and not have had any noticeable effect

This was to interesting! I need to pick up that book! Def sharing your video! ❤
Hi gorgeous
Glad you enjoyed it ❤️
And thank you for sharing it
Love u

His eating less protein comment is absolutely absurd. Minimum 1.5 grams per lb up to 2 or more grams. He states that some studies show that this decrease in protein intake is beneficial. First off these studies he refers to are mostly observational which have to many confounding factors to prove anything. Also he doesnt distinguish between crude vs true protein which is also super important. Just cause hes a doc doesnt mean hes right. Use your own common sense and look it up for yourself.
Well, I don’t agree with everything he says either, they definitely some experts. Now that say that less protein can slow down some of the pathways of aging. And as he said, it’s not so much the protein, but certain amino acids, such as methionine.
Here from India, Dr. Greger changed my life after I was finding answers for my Mom's sudden demise.
It's been 5 years and my life has been so much following almost every tip that he gives.
That is amazing to hear! I’m very sorry about your mom, but I’m glad that Dr. Gregor was able to change your life
x
@@claudiaglows :)
He is a superhero who speaks very fast 🤣
@@abc_cba that he does 😄
OMG. Imagine my excitement to see Dr. Greger. He's the GOAT! I eat mainly plant based diet and been following him for 10+ years.
You are too cute! Glad to hear that you enjoy Dr Gregor
x
Long time watcher of your videos and first time commenting. Whilst I appreciate that everyone must do their own research, there were a few concerning stances he’s taken during the interview (I’m still watching), with the most potentially dangerous one being salt. Those of us with conditions like POTS MUST increase our salt intake and I hope anyone watching who is thinking of reducing/eliminating salt from their diet checks with their own health professionals before making any dietary changes.
Thank you for your love and support and thank you for leaving a comment. While I really enjoyed my interview with Dr Gregor, there are a few things I do not agree with. I am def. going to keep drinking my electrolytes and I am glad you mentioned that salt is quite important for some conditions
x
I totally agree with you. Most doctors know nothing about nutrition and the correlation with health. The vast amount of people who have been helped by a carnivore diet is testament to the fact that protein from animal sources is superior to any other protein and lots of it together with animal fat is optimal.
It is the first time I hear him. I'm not sure how I feel about him and his opinions. Thank you for letting us hear something different than what it is mainly said. You look great!!! I hope you are settling well in your new home with Sam ❤!!!
Hi gorgeous, I think it is important to listen to different opinions and then do our own research and make up our own mind.
Lots of love to you
xx
@@claudiaglows I agree. This video made me think that what works for someone might not work for someone else. It is a bit hard. I hope you will talk to him again! I would love his opinion about taking NMN. Kisses!!
@@user-xm8ye5ti5f He actually talks about it in his book, and why he is not against it, he says he prefers boosting it naturally through exercise
x
I feel the same, interesting talk but not sure I agree with everything, especially his thoughts on hrt and estrogen
@@EvolutionaryYak i don't agree with that either. But that is why I really think we need to do our own research
x
I kinda wish you had pressed him for more information about why he’s not a fan of post menopausal hormone replacement therapy. He just kind of pushed past your questions and suggested that we buy his book. Claudia, you’ve have some great experts on podcast regarding their pro-hormone replacement opinions and I didn’t feel like his answer was sufficient here. To be honest, he seemed to me to have a bit of a cavalier attitude when answering some of your questions. His tone sounds really condescending at times. And I looked up his age: 52. I will say I think he looks older and especially when looking at Claudia who is positively gorgeous and glowing…..it’s quite a stark contrast.
Hi Lorraine, thank you so much for being here and for your kind comment. Unfortunately, we had a time limit, so I couldn’t push too much on certain topics. And well, I really appreciate this time and knowledge, they are definitely things. I don’t agree with. I still do think that hormone replacement therapy can be a blessing for so many women, and that we have plenty of studies showing now that the benefits outweigh the negative. But I do think it is important to listen to different experts, and then as I said to our own research and make up our mind
xx
He basically said he's worried about the potential risks associated with it, and want women to be aware of them before choosing to go ahead with it. I think that's an important point. HRT can make life so much better for many women. But it's not without risk, especially if it's synthetic rather than bio-identical.
YES!!! My collab of the century. Can't wait to watch this, Claudia!
Hi Morgan, I hope you will love it ❤️
Great interview Claudia. Learned so much! Thank you.😊💕
Hi Susan, thank you for being here. I’m glad you enjoyed this.❤️
Hi Claudia! I’d love to see Dr. Marie Clair Haver, Dr. Corrinn Menn, Dr. Sharon Malone, Dr. Heather Hirsch, Dr. Avrum Blum and maybe Tamsen Fadal interviewed. I’ll keep my options on this particular interview to myself. Sending you lots of hugs and love! 😊💜💜💜💜
Hi gorgeous, I will see if I can get some of those experts on the channel
xx
@@claudiaglows Great! And I meant “opinions” not “options”. 😝 😂🫣💜
@@GenXVictoria 😘
Thank you for this interview Claudia. I haven’t heard of him but will read his book out of curiosity. So much of this is different than what I’ve been hearing about, esp protein, HRT, salt, and a few other things.
Glad you enjoyed this and hopefully you will enjoy the book as well
xx
Wonderful/excellent interview, Claudia1 We so appreciate your questions and insight. Dr. Gregor's ideas on aging and health were somewhat new to me, and I plan on incorporating his recommendations in my meal/snack planning. Too bad you weren't able to ask him about NMN supplementation. Thank you SO much! P.S. Am trying the Calecim skin care products--remarkable!!
Hi Karen, thank you for being here and glad you enjoyed this. He does talk about NMN in his book and to my understanding, while he is not against it, he prefers to boost NAD naturally, with exercise. I am not going to stop using my NMN though :).
Glad to hear you are loving the Calecim products

Thank you for this interview! I just got his book. He is one of my favorite longevity experts.
Thank you for bring here Angela. I hope you will enjoy the book

Love Dr. Greger! Great interview, Claudia! 💗💗💗💗
Hi Juls, glad you enjoyed it, thank you for being here❤️
Hi Claudia. I love your videos but this one I just couldn’t finish watching.❤️
Hi, I am sorry to hear that. I def. do not agree with everything Dr Greger is saying, but I think it is interesting to listen to different opinions and then make up our own mind
x
@@claudiaglows I totally agree with what your saying but he is so off the rail and out of touch.
@@phoenixgirl11 I think he’s just a bit different ;-)
I loved that interview and I just bought the book . You are right you do have to do your own research and decide what is best for your own body . He is a genius and I like his presentation of speaking lol . Will any of his recommendations sway you to do different ? It’s funny he said just take wheat germ instead of expensive supplements like Sirtuin? Hope all is well with settling in San Diego and that your doing ok 💗💕
Hi gorgeous, glad you enjoyed this. I do like that he gives us food alternatives, and he is right, Spermadine supplements are just wheat germ in a capsule. However, I am going to try the DoNotAge one, as I am gluten sensitive and that one is not made from wheat germ. Will keep you posted, just ordered it today.
As far as doing things differently, I am still drinking my electrolyte drink ;).
But I am trying to incorporate more beans into my diet (I am not the biggest fan of beans) and just eat even more of a variety of vegetables as well as purple sweet potatoes (which he is a big fan of).
How about you, do you think you will change some things after listening to this?
xx
Thank you for this interview Claudia! You are right on point with your guests and questions 💖🌷👍
I saw a holistic Oncologist a couple of years ago who tested my BCAA (leucine, isoleucine, valine) and found them below normal levels. I was restricting protein at the time and he told me to work on increasing my levels as they were important for fighting inflammation and immune system function. I think regular testing might be helpful.
Hi, thank you for being here. Glad you enjoyed this
x
Yes there is conflicting info from various experts. I don't mind hearing differing opinions though. 🙂
Glad to hear that. I think it’s important to listen to different experts and then do our own research as well.
x
It's important to not be in an echo-chamber. Research is constantly changing opinions. But it's also good to experiment yourself and see what makes your life better, we are all individuals with individual needs too.
@@helena_5456I agree with you Helena, we needs to do our own research (and yes, research constantly changes) and do what works for us
x
This guy clearly don’t know a lot when Claudia ask About osteopenia if it’s any evidence that protein help with osteopenia his answer was yes it is evidence but I don’t recommend it when Klaudia ask about hormone replacement therapy the guy for one second even think what it is and don’t recommend taking it because it is a risk honestly this guy have to educate himself I don’t really wanna disrespect no one, but he have no knowledge about the hormone replacement therapy and contradict himself what it comes to osteopenia I am not on any side I am confuse myself because some doctors saying minimum proteins are eliminates animal proteins different specialist and Doctor saying increase proteins I’m confused but when it comes to this guy, it doesn’t sound convincing x
It is super frustrating that experts do not agree on so many of these subjects. Dr Greger def. does his research, but even with that, it seems we can find so much contradicting research, esp when it comes to HRT. Personally I do not agree with his stands on HRT, but I think it is important to listen to different experts and then do our own research and find what works for us
Thank you for being here
xx
He said "he's not against HRT but want women to be aware of the risk"..
Interesting interview. I like to hear different opinions to help me make decisions that are best for my health. Through personal experience i feel lowering plant based foods and oils and increasing animal protein and fats have helped me with my cronic body pains, skin problems and digestive issues. so altho i disagree with most of what he said i still enjoyed the conversation. I love your chanel and your skin is amazing ❤. I think the electrolytes you are taking are probably a good shout after exercise. X
Hi Lolly, I really enjoyed reading your comment and love your open mindedness. I def. do not agree with everything Dr Greger is saying, but I have learned quite a few things from reading his book. And yes, I will continue drinking my electrolytes :)
Thank you for being here

How do you know it's the meat and fat that's making you feel better. Beware...long term it's not sustainable.
Im trying to bio hack myself (lol). Im 53, no wrinkles at all. Look 15 years younger. I use a lot of amino acids especially glycine and NAC. If it can helps...
If it is working for you, keep doing what you are doing. I also take Gly-Nac and the studies on it are positive

Bravissima Claudia ❤
Grazie Bella ❤️
Hello Claudia, you never fail to amaze me… Dr Greger!! Now that’s a big achievement. This is probably my favourite video of yours to date and I took away so much from it, so thank you very much!
I just wanted clarification on the protein aspect of this video. Now, Dr Gregor mentioned the protein calculation being 0.8 x per kg of body weight - I weigh about 45kg and do resistance training twice a week. Am I correct in thinking my protein goal should be 36g according to that calculation? I have been eating meat and roughly hitting 55-60g of protein a day but I think this is too much for me! (Also, I don’t enjoy eating animal meat everyday either) - so would I be able to reduce my protein to 36-40g and still hit my gym goals of being stronger in myself? I’m just not entirely sure if I heard correctly in the video! Thank you 😊
Hi Alisha, I am glad you enjoyed this. Yes, that is what he is suggesting. Or, to cut down on animal protein and replace some of it with plant so we cut down on Methionine.
If that little protein works for you, that is great. Some of us do feel we need a bit more. Please keep me posted on how it works for you
x
Thank you Claudia, for another informative and entertaining video 🙏🏻. I really like how you incorporate such a variety of topics on your channel.
While a I agree with a lot of what Dr.Greger says, I believe supplementation in this day and age is necessary. There are many sources of natural supplements available to us. Since the 50’s, at least in this country (and I’ve no doubt in many others), our soils have been polluted and continue to be with pesticides. Hence, our fruits and vegetables do not have the same amount and quality of vitamins and minerals our bodies require.
Mineral depletion can be a cause of disease.
If done naturally, I don’t see any problem in taking supplements. And definitely keeping-up with our electrolyte drinks 😋!! I have heard from a lot of experts in nutrition, the intake of electrolytes is highly beneficial for our bodies.
As you rightly point-out, it is good for everyone to do their own research in order to ascertain what works best. Researching is key 🔑
Keep being such a positive influence for us all Claudia 💗😍🎉
Hi Victoria, thank you for your thoughtful comment. I agree with you, I think it is very hard nowadays to get all the nutrients we need from food. And yes, I am still drinking my electrolytes :) And using my HRT ..
Lots of love
xx
Hey Claudia, I hooe you are very well, you certainly look very well !
I love Dr Greger, he is definitely an OG in the Plant Based movement and I 100% agree with him about whole foods plant based being the way to go....
Like most plant based doctors however, I find him to be lacking in the hormonal replacement aspect - most of them are men, so have no first hand exoerience of the sharp decline that comes to women with age... I also find that those who are women also tend to go with the "natural is best" idea which permeates the plant based space... ( an idea which has much merit but needs thoughtful balancing in my opinion with all that technology, thankfully, has to offer... ) Yes, I agree with you, there is no substitute for doing your own research...
You and Dr Matthis ( and also TS Wiley! ) saved my life in regards to the issue of hormones and I often share your videos on this subject with others.
I also don't agree on those low protein levels he recommends... I personally get around 2.5g per kilo of bodyweight and it's helped me tremendously to put on and keep building muscle... 100% plant based though... ( no studies have been done to my knowledge on 100% plant based protein intake... ) I am in agreement that it is good to keep animal protein to an absolute minimum and that makes sense... but plant protein? No....
My whole body composition changed for the better and I certainly would not be able to train 3 hours a day without it.... So I know from personal experience that what he is saying is not so.... I wouldn't care if hundreds of studies came out saying otherwise... When you know you know...
Also on the salt... I think he goes unnecessarily far in reducing it... Sure, you don't want a high sodium diet.... But neither is a really really low sodium.diet a good idea... an 5:39 d I find that I do need some added sodium, especially in the summer when I sweat a lot/more...
Love to you, thanks for another great episode.... ❤
I loved reading your comment and feel the same way as you do about all the issues mentioned. And I am so glad to hear that you are doing well on the Wiley! I have been on it for 16 years and have no plans to ever stop it.
There was actually just a new study published, looking at different forms of protein. In a nutshell it did show that higher intake can be beneficial, but that when some animal protein was replaced with plant, age related disease risk went down significantly.
Thank you for being here and for your kind comment
xx
@@claudiaglows thank you for having me! I also agree that it is good to learn from all, even though for sure it can be confusing! For example, I do believe that Dr Greger is spot on with the plant based diet... So many of the BHRT promoters don't get this part right at all in my opinion... in fact they usually advocate for high animal product consumprion in my experience... and I feel this causes them all sorts of problems... so it's best to try and learn and experiment and watch and listen to all sorts of people... You never know when you can learn something new!
I’m proud of you, beautiful.
aww, thank you love

👋👋👋
This was brilliant Claudia and as always, you ask the BEST questions… I wished he would have gone more in depth with HRT though…
I know I feel terrible if I stop my HRT, so obviously when I’m extremely low in oestrogen, it was only HRT that made a HUGE difference for me…
Sending LOVE ❤❤❤
Hi gorgeous, glad you enjoyed this. I agree with you, I never want to stop my HRT and I am glad it is working well for you as well
Lots of love
xx
Thanks for this conversation Claudia. I used to follow Dr Greger but there are so many to follow today. I find his take on HRT frustrating and very confusing given the research. I do not plan on giving it up. Also would you replace spermadine supplements with wheat germ capsules or as part of your diet? Have you ever interviewed Dr William Li who wrote Food as Medicine? I like him a lot.
Hi Julia, I agree with you. I am definitely staying on my HRT, and I do not agree with Dr. Gregor on this. And yes, that is what he’s saying, instead of taking a spwrmadine supplement, you would just eat wheat germ. That is, of course, if you are not gluten sensitive.
I have not heard of Dr. William, but I will definitely look him up
x
My mother followed the advice of Dr Pritikin much of her life and she lived in good health almost to her death at 96. Thanks this was very interesting!
That is great to hear. Thank you for being here

Even tho I have a biological great aunt who turned 102 in Nov + a 100 yr old who is as sharp as a tack… as this dr mentioned of others… my son too is one who, yrs ago said he doesn’t want to live as an ‘old’ person w/old health + bad world conditions. Tho this dr has a way ab him (and we all may ;)… I do agree w/a lot that he says. Some things tho, just can’t be proven 💯% yet. I listened yesterday + again aft midnight ☺️… I enjoyed his information. Thank you Claudia ♥️.
Hi Valerie, glad you enjoyed the information. I agree, there are some things that are hard to prove and we do not agree with everything an expert says.
Sounds like you have some great genetics in your family. But I can understand your son. It is not just about our health, but the health of the world as well
Thank you for being here
xx
I am very frustrated at the contradicting advice of fasting, protein, and hormone replacement! I don’t think anyone really knows anymore! I know people who have not done any of these and have lived long lives. I think eat healthy, exercise, sleep good and enjoy life with a positive attitude! Everyone has their own opinions.
Hi Cynthia, I agree with you, it is very frustrating. And you are right, eat healthy, exercise, sleep, manage stress and enjoy life, those are the most important things. Dr Greger actually says something to that affect at the end
But as you said, some people do none of that and live a long, healthy life ::)
x
In the name of science , it couldn’t be more contradictive and confusing than ever 😬 one has to follow his/her own common sense and inner voice 🤦♀️ thanks Claudia 🙏
While he makes some valid points, I did not enjoy his slightly arrogant delivery nor did he convince me on his views on HRT or protein. Andrew Huberman, Rhonda Patrick and Peter Attia, for example, draw their conclusions from extensive research and explain their conclusions during their podcasts. Entire teams of scientists are behind them going through all available papers. PS: Claudia, you are looking incredible , keep doing what you‘re doing (including HRT…)
Hi Larayne, I think it is so interesting as well as frustrating that opinions amongst experts vary so much. Dr Gregor def. does a ton of research, in fact his book has over 13000 citations. But there are def. things he says I personally do not agree with. Personally I will stay on HRT, as I do think the benefits outweigh the risks, but as I said, we all need to do our own research. (And I am still drinking my electrolytes :)) Thank you for your kind words and for being here.
xx
I agree with you. Especially in regard to HRT. It was right around there that I stopped listening. If he’s going to refute all the research on HRT he needs to explain why. And he threw out information so fast and with this very condescending tone. The way he was responding to You, Claudia, was really hard for me. On a positive note I want to add that you are absolutely radiant, Claudia-and you were beautiful and gracious in this interview.
@@pamorama You know, he does into detail about the why's in his book. But that being said, personally I do not agree with it.
I do think he is brilliant, but just a bit different
Thank you for your kind words.
xx
That’s what I’m saying. I trust those other doctors than this one.
Not trusting this guy at all. I wonder who is paying him.
Hi, while I do not agree with everything Dr Greger is saying, I know he is not being paid by anyone to say certain things. In fact, he gives all the proceeds from his books to charity, so I do believe he is in it for the right reason. That does not mean we have to agree with everything he says though :)
Oops , spermidine not surtuin . I am a little gluten sensitive so I might try it and see how it goes . I don’t do HRT so I guess I’m good there lol . I don’t use too much sodium anyway it causes inflammation and if I have it at night like in my popcorn I really feel it in my hands and face . Did you see the blue zone documentary ? I think it was Japan that they eat loads of the Ben imo purple potatoes , but they are so hard to find . I’m going to see if I can grow my own . I will still use olive & avocado oil . I can’t do beans I have IBS . I do make dressing occasionally with tahini. I can’t wait to see what the book says
I knew what you meant :)
Keep me posted on the spermadine.
Yes, that is why I started eating purple potatoes. I love them. You can find them at whole foods if you have one in your area

Wow, lots of interesting views and seems like quite a character. Great interview Claudia. Do you eat wheat germ and if so, do you recommend wheat germ oil or just in its raw form? I take men who are not pro hormone replacement therapy with a grain of salt, how can they know? 😂
Hi, glad you enjoyed this. Yes, he is quite the character:). Like you, I do not agree with his opinion on HRT, but it think it is good to listen to different experts and then do our own research as well.
I do not take wheatgerm as I am gluten sensitive. I wish I could, it is such an easy way to increase Spermadine

I would assume actual olives are better than olive oil. Interesting talk. Thanks Claudia. 😊
Yes, but he says that they are to high in sodium when primed.
So if we could eat them fresh, that would be great
x
Yes, but monitor your salt intake.
Great interview! I follow him for probably 10 years, I read all his books!
Glad you enjoyed it

So at 8:20 what it sounds to me like is the protein amounts referred to here over all does not benefit a majority but has benefits for some?? 🙄
Hi Carol, Dr Greger is for less protein in general. He says that restricting protein i slows all 11 pathways of aging
Wonderful video, Claudia! I plan to read his book.
Hi Lori Ann, glad you enjoyed it and thank you for being here ❤️
Wow, you got Dr. Greger. Love him. Love his cookbooks ❤❤❤
Glad to hear you are enjoying him, Carol.

Your skin looks so beautifull.😍 What are you doing for this please?
Thank you Yasmin. I actually uploaded my skincare routine not too long ago. But honestly, some of it is lighting and the zoom camera is very forgiving

He is amazing!!

I'm sure he's made you think a few things, especially with sodium. You'll know yourself if following someone's medical advice is an overdose as you'll have unwanted side effects, such as feeling thirsty and high blood pressure. The ones who can't be convinced on what is too high will think people have to be within a range which is generalised, rather than what is beneficial to the individual.
Hi Kevin, nice to hear from you. I am not sure he has convinced me yet, but it was sure interesting what he had to say. For now I will keep drinking my electrolytes :)

@@claudiaglows It's confusing when one reliable source tells you one thing, then someone else tells you another. I advise you to assess how you feel when having salt in your diet and the time of year when you'll lose it more, such as sweat from workouts. I think it's okay to occasionally have more on some days, then reduce it so it's not too much of a good thing. Do you listen to having half a teaspoon as it's in the western diet, so you don't need to supplient it or with more recent guidelines, a full one? xx
@@kevinhanley6462 thank you Kevin. I def. feel better when I supplement with salt, as I sweat a lot
xx
@@claudiaglows Then there's a reason for increasing it as we lose it in hot weather. There will be times when you're confused and think you're hungry, but you're actually thirsty as you're dehydrated. Try drinking water before eating to see if the hunger goes away. We're mainly made up of water, so won't always get it right what we want. xx
I’ve been learning from Dr. Gregor for many years already. I’m not a vegan personally but can value his insight.
Hi Jess, that is great to hear, I love your open mindedness
Thank you for being here

Low glycemic fruit!!!

It always baffles me when doctors use the argument ‘our ancient ancestors did this or, did not do that…. ’ to prove their recommended life longevity ‘diet formula’. Has anyone ever looked at the statistics of lifespan of our ancestors? 30? 40?
I find that frustrating at times as well. And just because we did things a long time ago, does not mean they were healthy, often we did not have a choice
x
❤
The reason why the lifespan was so short on average was due to child death. If you lived past childhood then your life would not end at 30-40 on average, you would usually live past 60 at least. (That said I don't like the argument either)
So now i'm even more confused 🤣
You and me both ;)

I love this guy! Follow his teachings and you will become healthy. Many have stopped taking medication following a plant based diet. It’s that easy!
I don’t think so but that’s just my opinion. If people want to live longer go for it but I want quality. What good does it do to live longer if you can’t move or are bedridden. Again. It’s just my opinion.
Glad to hear you are enjoying him and are doing well Isabelle
x
I think that is what he is trying to do though, is not have people live well for longer, not just longer. That is what we are all hoping for of course, healthy life span, not just life span
x
Did you read the book Claudia? I’d love to hear your thoughts on it! Thanks for this content, it was very interesting, I would love to hear more on your thoughts ❤
Hi Heather, I did read the book. The first chapter was the most fascinating to me. That’s why he talks about the 11th pathways of aging, what they are and how to slow them.
It is a complex book, but I’m glad I read it. If you are interested in extending healthy lifespan, I think you will enjoy it.
Thank you once again Claudia
I ordered the starter pack for one month of everything
And 2 canisters for my dogs and used your code
I am praying 🙏 it helps me
Thank you so much for all you do
And shining a light on all of this for all everyone 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Hi Kelley
I am keeping my fingers crossed for you. Please keep me posted
xx
@@claudiaglows for sure !
The only thing I disagree with him is HRT
I will never give mine up !
Also, Claudia would you consider ever talking or exchanging emails ?
We are the same age and have similar struggles
I have so many questions and want to know what you feel has helped you the most and share things that help one another ?
@@Ubelongamongthewildflowers of course. My email is ClaudiaGlows3@gmail.com

@@claudiaglows thank you 🙏
This guy seems a bit aloof to me… 🤨
There are a few things I can agree with him, but even more that I disagree with. But that isn’t so uncommon in the research community.
Fact is, one has to find out what works best for oneself. I definitely won’t buy his book.
I agree with you, it does seem to be that it is not uncommon to agree with some things, yet disagree with others, even with experts we really respect.
This is why we need to always do our own research and do what works for us
x
He looks old for his age
I think your skin looks great. But not having hair always most people look older
OMG I have followed Dr. Greger forever. Are you plant based as well?
Hi, yes I am :)

Refreshing to see someone actually address the not-so-impressive evidence based behind hormone therapy (estrogen + progesterone) as opposed to HrT (estrogen-only).
At this point, women are being shamed for not going on it, as if they are cheating their long-term health outcomes. That's just not reasonable based on what we know now.
Thanks for platforming his voice.
That said, per his voice... a kind of strange cadence to his speech pattern imo.
Thank you for being here. I agree, it is good to listen to different opinions and then do our own research as well
I love you Claudia, you are so kind, this was hard to watch. He is arrogant and yells out his answers like it makes them true or more significant which did not come across as knowledgeable to me.
You are a sweetheart Holly, thank you so much for your kind words. You know, I think he’s just a bit different. I’ve seen many of his interviews and that’s his demeanor, I did not take it personal.
x
Claudia I want to do what you do because our eyes don’t lie. You have a very muscular build with very little fat. Dr Gregor looks petite and scrawny. This is not healthy looking to me. I’ve listened to him before on other podcasts and believe he is a pompous know it all who talks down to his audience. Thanks for your personal lifestyle videos. These are the suggestions I will follow.
Thank you Gaby
xx
he has lost me after the mention of plant-based protein :) ... plant-based proteins are sub optimal.... animal proteins are the most compatible and bioavailable source of amino acids for the human body, not plants...
I appreciate you being here and your feedback. While I do not agree with everything Dr Greger says, there is some new research on plant based protein you might want to look into
@@claudiaglows thank you Claudia for your comment.... I will keep my ears out for this....
@@claudiaglows ua-cam.com/video/iGmYxaeBXnk/v-deo.html
I usually love your content but he does not appear to represent a healthy lifestyle
I think is is important to listen to different opinions from different experts and then make up our own mind
He does not look that healthy
Why do you say that? Somebody can bald and still super healthy. He’s trim and fit, which is something not most physicians can say.
@@claudiaglows just because someone is trim and fit does not mean they are healthy
@@pixidust I agree with you that one can be trimmed and fit and still not healthy. But it is usually a pretty good measurement. I’m curious to hear what makes you think that he does not look healthy?
@@claudiaglows to me his skin is flat no life tight no glow no hydration
@@pixidust that could also due to lighting
Why do you always look like you're covered in grease?
I don’t think you actually want an answer to your question ;-). Thank you for being here though.
Oh come on. …how can anyone take this guy and his delusions seriously.
I would not call 3 years of research dogma.
@@claudiaglows there. Fixed it for ya 😂
He doesn’t look especially healthy.
What makes you think that ? I think he looks healthy
@@AhFeiLee I agree with you
What makes you say that? The man has so much energy, it would be hard for most of us to keep up
He looks and seem healthy to me.. I don't get this comment
