My son is 19 and I hope that he will also see the light and move into a healthier life. #2. Heading to your neck of the woods for some hiking. What are some of your favorite areas that I should try to hit? Also prefer the less beaten path, but not too secluded.Thanks for all that you bring to this life.

    I like this kind of videos, in which you don't only give spesific info about recipes or diet or other stuff, but you also make it more interesting by showing something which would probably be interesting for someone to see or do or it would make someone's day. But you are also doing this professionaly, so I guess it comes down to what most people are interested in, longer or shorter videos. And based on the fact that most people are busy, short videos seem to "work" more efficiently. At least, do a more interesting long video(like that) from time to time! Thanks for the info and the stroll in those nice places in Canada!

    Regarding Clensing & detoxing, I did it once. ONCE. when I transitioned from a meat & dairy harming diet to a plant based diet. I cut out alcohol & caffine, and loaded up on superfood smoothies. I intended for it to be a weeks worth, but I kept a lot of the good habits long term, such as drinking decaff coffee most of the time, and cutting down on alcohol a lot compared to my former self.

    I love your work and recommend your work to others. I'm not a vegan but still, I love your great advice. I have to correct you on the sugar point. Sugar is sugar. The question is how is it absorbed and how is it packed. Highly refined sugar is about removing the fiber content so the sugar is absorbed rapidly versus eating whole fruit where in most cases the sugar is absorbed more slowly, is paired with beneficial nutrients and generally fruit just less sugar/calorie dense. Yes, there is some difference in the chemical structure of sugars, but the effect of the class is remarkable similar. I love your work.

  • @BluffMunkey
    @BluffMunkey 6 років тому

    I like this channel. I like the delivery, I like that it's not all quickbits and I like the fact that there is vegan information without being fanatical.
    I'm trying to move more towards being mainly vegetarian with part time carnivore activities. Where meat/dairy is consumed, it will be high welfare, organic and absolutely not intensely farmed. I can't see a future where I'm vegan, but I don't think we all have to be.
    Anyway, in terms of diets mentioned in this video I agree that diet phases are not optimal. I don't like the idea of bulking/cutting or tox/detox (wait...tox?!). Eating as much plant food as possible, not eating processed crap and not supporting bad farming practices is the way forward for everybody whether they choose to be vegan or not. I find fasting to be a very beneficial for my health and wellbeing, and not hard to do at all after a couple of weeks.
    And Jeeze, that scenery.

    PLEASE READ!!
    Derek !! This is a question for ask me Monday. I’m doing a bachelor of nutrition at university in Australia and more often and not the course is distributing false information about animal products and health. For example today was eggs are healthy and don’t raise serum cholesterol and so on. Have you experienced this? And how do I deal with it. I’m vegan myself by the way and I just get so triggered. Thank you!!! Love your content you’re my fav UA-camr 🙏🙏
