Love JP's stuff, can agree that misled on what to eat. But I've been vegan for 9 years, partner 12 years. I didnt have many health if any health issues previously though gained a lot more strength and energy. My partner on the otherhand was full of health issues until going vegan. I understand JP's stance since he pretty much had to be on a meat only diet during his health crisis. And have seen/ heard many people who have gone on more meat based diets as that was the only thing that was helping, along with previous long-term vegans. Though taking a stab at plant-based is in my opinion the wrong way to aim or not as accurate. Should be more directing our energy to actual healthy eating strategies for the individual and get rid of the crap that is being marketed to the masses, which is sustaining this health crisis.
Yup, ultra-processed, convenience foods are the problem, to the extent that you can identify a single problem. Eating vegan cuts out a lot of that by default (but not all), as does eating a carnivore diet. JP is seriously misled and conspiratorial on this one.
Dr Peterson, I grew up on a farm in Northern Alberta. Eating meat at every meal, was always thin and healthy. Did the same throughout my career in the Canadian armed forces. As soon as I adopted the Canadian food guide, I started putting on weight and my health had taken a massive change for the worst. In five months I lost 50 pounds of fat, by eating the way I grew up with my grandparents. My bad cholesterol levels have dropped below normal, my liver enzyme count is now back to normal. My blood pressure is now back to normal. Thank you for sharing your journey, I have bought and sent everyone I know a copy of your latest book, in hopes it improves their lives as much as it did mine. A Father, so many fatherless men
Not too long ago Joe Rogan had a guy on his show who had gained _massive_ amounts of weight by switching to vegan diet. He thought he was going to get healthy. Another relatively recent scam is the gluten-free diet (gluten is in fact a necessary part of healthy metabolism).
My experience has been that when I eat a lot of protein and fat rich food in the morning, such as eggs, sausages, or fish, then I am not hungry until the evening. Moreover, I don't even THINK about eating in the meantime. But when I mostly eat carbs, I still have a strong craving for cookies or candy after a large meal and I feel like I have to keep eating until I cannot anymore. Protein and fat is the way to go!
If we feel "low" in our house (change of season, long work hours, etc.) we eat hamburgers (no bun) with mushrooms and au jus gravy with a small potato for 3 nights in a row. It works like a charm. Vegetables optional for colour. Beef is especially energizing and anti-depressant. The potato's resistant starch feeds your microbiome .. also anti-depressant. This is ranched ground meat .. no support of confinement feeding operations here. It really isn't that difficult or expensive to feel great.
Yes, he is an amazing individual. However, he does not seem to understand climate science quite right. If everyone took his advice, then climate change would accelerate. It's not good.
@@emilycavendish6690 think on this; people talking about climate change always say the science is settled, in that is is known to be occurring due to human actions, yet not one person on that side of the argument can ever give a real answer on how much humans are impacting the climate. And in the rare instance they do, they disagree with one another about with how much we are impacting the climate. So, the supposed settled scientists do not even agree with one another, yet we are to believe it is settled. Also, as long as 80 percent of the world does not sleep on a mattress and will burn plastic or rubber in order to make heat, then it doesnt matter anyway, as first world countries can do very little to counter the impact of those who are simply needing to do what they can to get by. I dont blame them. What is interesting is that I dont see people who claim we need to not eat meat ferting rid of their own IRA accounts to pay for this. If they really believe we are killing the planet they are not living like it. They usually like to tell others how to live, as long as they can still keep all of the money they have and have an iphone.
And plants eat the nutrients of our corpses as they decompose so eating plants is cannibalism in a way. Welcome to the circle of life. This world has natural laws that preclude utopia. Live with it.
the peasants and workers were often far more physically healthy than the royals and upperclassmen that oversaw them. they were fat from drinking wine and eating steak combined with inactivity. Even the poorest people in our society would be considered rich just a mere 500 years ago, we live like kings from an evolutionary perspective and our health is suffering

First of all, let me mention that I love most of Dr Peterson's work. Adopt responsibility, tell the truth and stop making everything worse. He really deserves respect. In the past I heard a smart man say, that society takes one smart person's word outside of his area of experties. So this is the case as well. We just think he knows best in every area. I like that he mentions that the goverment should not dictate the food guidelines, however it's a suggestion and also with a lot of science behind it, now I know there are two sides to every coin, but he did not mention any studies, and just states stuff as pure facts. I would really love to see him talk to a meat doctors and vegan docotr, going through the research and see if he changes his mind, since there is a loooot of information. I think he is just tired of the authoritarian ideas behind every goverment, which is good, but most of the time goverments do provide good guidelines, for example - exercise regularly, eat fruits, avoid bad habbits like alcohol etc. Also one clear distinction - there are carbs and carbs... just like there are fats and fats... so we can't just say cars are bad, since like anything there is a lot of details in there - processed carbs (such as sugar) are bad, however it's hard to find a study that suggests the same for oats for example.
I'm with you on all this. I just want to add a caveat that JBP literally thrives best with nothing but ruminant meat and salt. Even cutting broccoli (the last plant he was eating) out of his diet seemed to make a difference for him. That's a pattern among many carnivores who used to eat "healthy" and then cut the vegatables out and it made them feel mind-blowingly phenomenal! So he comes from a perspective of realizing that he (and many others) attained the best health of their lives by cutting out carbs completely
@@selo5124 Why do you bother? He's probably another sugar addict who tries to hide behind his finger. So many studies that support how bad carbs are especially if you sit all day. Now he will come and say then exercise; well you can exercise without eating any carbs. Optimal versus not that bad?
Read books, digest information, look at the evidence, listen to both sides, then decide for yourself. Also, I suspect it's not that you've been lied to about everything, merely that you've understood nothing that you've been told.
@@JoviBootlegs90 Well stated friend. There will always be pitfalls of course, (due in part to the quality of information one is presented with for analysis and the motives of the individuals who put out that info.) but an individual is always better off trying to be as objective as possible, while critically questioning Everything before they decide what to believe, embrace and adopt into practice as part of their lifestyle. Critical Thinking is FEARED by many in power I believe. Almost as much as Unity among The Peoples. It is in fact one of the greatest Enemies of Authoritarian Rule I would assert.

I eat plant based and haven't had issues. My cholesterol, triglycerides and inflammation markers are low and iron deficiency is no longer. My athletic performance, strength and lean muscle mass is also at an advanced level for not dedicating my life to it. That being said I still don't agree with the food pyramid recommendations. 6 servings of grains a day seems off to me or at least it's what I don't feel good eating and would gain weight if I did so. I'm currently preparing for my first bodybuilding show and currently am eating daily 160g of protein, 160g of carbs, 57g of fat, in under 2000 calories. My fruit is either a banana or a cup of blueberries, my vegetables are typically sweet potato, leafy greens, micro greens and broccoli, I eat 1 serve of grains most days which are oats and the rest of my meals are protein sources. What places with the least diet related issues and greatest life expectancy even till this day have in common eating whole foods. Some rarely eat meat at all like the traditional Okinawans yet they've been renowned to have lived much longer than the average. Don't get caught up in blaming carbs and plants and this and that just because it doesn't work for you. If you're absorbing nutrients, if you're food is good quality and whole food, if you're gut is happy, if you're body fat and fitness is at good level for hormone production then you're diet is a healthy and supportive one. It feels weird being a living example of great health while eating plants and coming across some people being unable to accept that because of their own issues... Like they clearly get angry about it for some reason and then come up with wacky excuses such as i'm still living off nutrients from over 5 years ago or I just happen to be the exception along with my husband and in-laws who decided to not eat meat ethically for our situation and actually eat properly and understand what we need rather than juice fasts and the other fads.
Most livestock is raised on land that would not be suitable for cultivation. If the livestock didn't exist, that land still would not be used for farming grains or vegetables.
Have been vegetarian my entire life. Perfectly in shape and full of energy. Have no craving for meat and will never have it unless I absolutely need to. Same for my previous 10 generations. Mostly vegetarians. My vegetarian grandmother is 91 and is still in decent shape. Its not very difficult to be a vegetarian and to be perfectly healthy and I think that's reason enough for people to give it a try.
This is absolute nonsense. Nothing what you eat has any nutritional value at all. I don't know a vegetarian alive that's physically fit and mentally stable.
@@stevethebutcher1776 not true, potatoes, milk, eggs, fruit are probably to most nutritious safe food you can get, meat has some good stuff in it, but you run the risk of iron overload
@@stevethebutcher1776 There are more than 300 million vegetarians in my country and they certainly are not in bad physical or mental health.

Really?! I loved J.P. I think I still do. But this needs to stop Sir! Jordan Peterson used to acknowledge he's no diet expert and specifically asked people not to take his diet just based on his word. Now that's changed. Also, am I the only guy missing this? Jordan Peterson, his daughter and his wife. All of whom I assume are good people who want to do good for the society. But all of them went off the radar for months, in several cases had to be rushed to the ER for allergic reactions due to a fucking apple cider vinegar! I wasn't really surprised at this because his microbiome is practically non existent after only living on beef and salt for decades. I'm a vegetarian and have battled with depression all my life because sugar addiction is a real problem with vegetarian diets that tend to be high on refined carbs and sugars. But i made progress fixing it and breakfast was a big part of it. Including high protein and fat sources was a big part of it. I greatly believe that vegetarians can have a healthy diet. It's a process. It is not easy. Well, easier than an all beef and salt diet. Why this fascination towards ancient man. We do nothing that our ancestors do and still cling on to their diet. They stayed in caves and lived for less than 20 years on an average didn't they? They weren't civilized. We are the apex predators and the smartest sentient beings. We figured out agriculture , now what? Well, use it so we don't have to end lives of animals to stay alive. Is that too much?! Human population exploded because of agriculture, as per Yuval Noah Harari and I agree. So, now what? Call Thanos to wipe out half the earth? Nope! We cannot raise so many animals for this much population. Agriculture is way more efficient. Just don't eat so many fucking carbs! You don't have to go ape shit on every living and crawling being. Vegetarians are not worthless drooly sleepy slackers. I present to you Sundar Pichai running the most advanced fucking company on the planet. Nataie portman , an entrepreneur , oscar winner, mom, wife ... the list goes on and on.
I "cling onto it" for two reasons... one is because after 60 years of listening to my doctor's bullshit and trying your way, it's the first thing that's worked for me, the second reason is, most of us are biologically programmed to eat animal basd protein. So inconclusion, you believe and eat what you want to, but don't try and shove this new world order lies and bullshit down my throat without respect for others' points of view. My suggestion to you is stop thinking an everincreasing population is acceptable.
I’ve never heard someone be so wrong about so many things. Do your own research guys. Lifting Vegan Logic has a good video deconstructing this video and includes data you can look up yourself to back it up.

Thank you for this comment. It's actually frightening how information can be spread and accepted as correct just because someone in a jacket speaks assertively. That is why investigative journalism is so important.
I've never heard a person use so many words to communicate so little as this geezer does. Peterson should perhaps get his house in order before haranguing others.
You can't blame all of America's 'health issues' on the 'old' food pyramid. The next time you go the grocery store bring an electron-microscope and see if you can learn to pronounce half of the ingredients on the label and if you're able to do so in under an hour.
Try and pronounce all the proteins, amino acids and sugars contained naturally in food. Just because you can't pronounce something doesn't mean it's bad. It's a shame that something as obvious as this needs to be frequently stated.
@@kewpified I really miss my mom's cooking as well as my mother-in-law's.

@@Competitive_Antagonist You are indeed 'antagonistic' as your name implies. I was speaking of 'processed foods' which according to Google, "make up 70 percent of the U.S. diet." In addition, have you noticed the 'new' food labels that list "bioengineered food ingredients?" This term is now found on the; hoagies, sandwiches and sweet cakes sold in convenience stores. But just last month I purchased two dozen cans of 'Sirloin Burger with Country Vegetables' and 'Classic Chicken Noodle Soup with White Meat Chicken' and to my dismay, all 24 cans contain "bioengineered food ingredients." The label goes on to state that the "corn, soy and sugar in this product come from genetically modified crops." That's GMO's! Deploying (deliberate use of a military term) GMO's in a nation's food supply is illegal (a criminal act) in 60 countries, including Mexico. Just 2 years ago I read an in-depth article about GMO's. Japanese scientists did the world's most comprehensive analysis of foods containing GMO's and concluded that not only do foods containing GMO's provide considerably less nutritional value but are actually bad for one's health. GMO's cause illness, disease and obesity. Our government ought to 'tarred and feathered' for allowing these 'empty-calorie-toxins' in our food supply. Again, even Mexico doesn't allow these 'poisons' to be sold as 'food' and Mexico is a 'Third World Country.' Worse still, thanks to 'Commie Joe', 'We The People' (a reference to the Constitution) have to worry about shortages of such 'foods.' And even worse still, the price of these 'modified toxins' went up 50 cents a can since the last time I purchased them in 2021. Apparently in America one even has to pay more to commit 'slow-motion-suicide' these days. PS: No wonder 'homesteading' has become so popular. Apparently if one desires to eat 'real food' one has to grow their own vegetables and raise their own livestock.

This summer, the Governor General and her entourage racked up a $93,000 catering bill going to Dubai. (Source: every national media outlet in the country). I did some quick math based on the length of the trip and number of people in her "entourage" (it was 30, just around rap singer numbers). Her staff spent approx. $350 / day on food. Let's be "generous" and admit that Dubai is a high cost jurisdiction (which it is). That is still an outrageous amount for government employees and outstrips anything I have ever spent. Clearly cognac, filet mignon and lobster for our betters and insects and weeds for us peasants.
What? I dont know the food prices in Dubai but if you come to my country (Israel) with 30 people and you pay 350$ for a MEAL (not even a whole day of food) I'd ask to what minus 5 stars crappy restaurant did you go to that it was SO cheap? If you meant its 350$ a day per person now that's pretty outrageous.

Dr. Peterson, I'm a nutritionist and a huge admirer of your work. I would please ask you to take notice on the fact that your influence and reach in young and adult minds is vast and you should be responsible with what you produce and put out there because, as you know, some individuals will take everything you say as facts. And I, as a nutritionist, can say that you are wrong. Please stay in your field and be more considerate, humble and responsible with your statements and your followers. You stating one study to "debunk" thousands of others, comes off as shallow and as ignorant as it can be. Imagine if I read one paper about gender fluidity and wanted to teach you and the masses about psychology. Still appreciate you and your work but things like these makes me realize the men behind the idol is still a men.
I used to eat pretty much whatever when it came to food. Then I went to college and had a hard time maintaining a good diet. I went about 5 months without eating meat, not on purpose, time just flew by. During that summer I went to have a hamburger, made from elk my stepdad had hunted. I became very sick. I tried to have a steak a couple weeks later and became very sick again. I was able to eat fish without getting sick, but after a while, due to the cost of fish, I gave that up (did feel great with fish in the diet). Ever since, I have been a vegetarian and still feel great. I stay low with carbs in rice and noodles and have veggies with a low amount of beans. For snacks, fruit. Just sharing my experience. I do not care what people eat or want to eat; my whole family eats meat other than me now. I think everyone is just different and some things will work for some people and not for others.
@@btudrus heal themselves from a long life? you know that your digestion wont be able to process anyting but meat after a while of eating meat only? theres no going back without some serious microbiome rebuilding which is expensive and difficult. if you cant process plants in the first place this also would be the place to start: heal your digestive tract. therefore people advising to go on meat only are inflicting serious harm on the ones they recommend that "diet" to.
@@klausineliebtpeter "you know that your digestion wont be able to process anyting but meat after a while of eating meat only?" Our digestion is not able to really process anything than meat anyway.

There have been several primitive cultures eating meat only, being extremely healthy. On the contrary, anyone pushing that plant-shit is doing a lot of harm...
The longest living civilisations in history eat mainly plants. Starch, grains, fruits, veggies, nuts, seeds, pulses, rice and legumes. Those who are strictly vegan live the longest. Anthropological evidence now clearly points to the fact that our ancestors only ate a very small amount of meat (mainly during the winter months) the rest of the time it was tubers, berries, seeds, nuts and fruits. The reason we developed developed fingers and thumbs was to pick and peel these foods (like the great apes). Also much easier and safer than chasing a sabre tooth tiger or a mammoth. We don’t have the teeth or hands or digestive tract to eat raw meat. If you disagree try catching a squirrel or rabbit (without weapons) kill it and eat it raw. “Good luck with that then” as JP commonly says!
Eek, Jordan, i've supported most of your views before, but this time, nah. I think i'll stick with Dr Greger and people who actually know a little about nutrition
Fair enough, however he doesn't mention the amount of deforestation and water expenditure for breeding animals. Additionally what type of carbohydrates did that sample group consume? Refined or whole grain? I mean, white flour is as bad as refined sugar. One more thing to add, carbohydrates might seem to be the leading cause of diabetes, but, for insulin resistance to occur, the cells' receptors have to be clogged with fat. The type of fat that tends to stick around more is transfats and saturated fats, the latter found mostly in animals. Finally, processed fats like refined oil and butter, regardless if they are saturated or not, are to natural found fats what white floor is to whole grains.
How embarrassing was this for JP! I have so much respect for him and hopefully e soo. realises how wrong he has been on the topic of consuming meat. I guess no one can be expected to be on point 100% of the time.
I completely agree, i've agreed with lots of points he's had in the past, but i think this time he's really bitten off more than he can chew. Unfortunately i don't doubt the majorty of his followers, particually alot of the younger and more naive, will just just straight on this and label anyone else a sheep who doesn't agree. I think i trust Dr Greger a bit more than Dr Peterson when it comes to food. And i'm a relatively young person saying this! Lol
I am vegan but I know that meat is not that unheatly. I simply don't want to eat it and that's ok. The problem is that we people are rating too much and throwing even more food away.

I’d really recommend people go listen to Simon Hill’s podcast on plant based eating. It’s not only sustainable, it’s a vastly more effective means of feeding lots of people. Animal ethics aside (which is reason enough to stop eating meat and dairy) - there’s absolutely no question that diets high in saturated fats (which are high in red meat) raises serum cholesterol; a main driver of atherosclerosis. Carbohydrates aren’t inherently evil - infact, eating more fibre is probably the most beneficial way people could improve their diets. The problem is that over-indulgence in processed foods. People can feel good eating these minimalist carnivore diets because it restricts a lot of these foods - but ‘feeling good’ certainly doesn’t equate to positive long-term health outcomes. I understand the temptation to bundle plant based eating in with the woke/progressive types, but this is simply ad-hominem. A well constructed plant-based diet which is high in fibre and unsaturated fats is very likely one of the healthiest diets around, and there is plenty of evidence to support that.
Yeah you guys might want to check Dr. Michael Greger as a person who literally devoted his life to read and analyse scientific studies about nutrition, and tho I respect Jordan Peterson I still cannot rely on him for nutrition advice.
I’m a big fan of Jordan Peterson but his thoughts on food are so off it’s frustrating. Jordan, please please please take a look at John McDougall’s work.
I don't eat meat because I don't need it and I like knowing animals don't have to suffer and die just for me to be big and strong. I would love if everyone stopped eating animals. Do I think it should be mandated? Absolutely not. This is something people have to adopt willingly.
I eat red meat every night and most of my carbohydrates come from fruit , Im 40 next year and in the shape of my life, strongest and leanest I've ever been
You should add more vegetables and whole grains to that. Also consider reducing consumption of red meat, as it can be detrimental to your health and to the survival of our very planet!
@@emilycavendish6690 most people who comment on climate change understand very little about, including how it affects our planet. How many peer reviewed journals have you published? How many have you read? Are you a environmental scientist? If not, have you ever spoken at length with one?
His argument is so weak and lacks differentiation. The problem is not carbohydrates - fruits, vegetables and whole grains - rather processed food that reduces whole grain to starch, whole fruits to juice and adds sugar/high fructose corn syrup even to even canned vegetables to make then "taste better".
I went plant based for about 4 years and it helped clear a lot of my health issues, but beyond that it was not sustainable for me. I think generally we are designed to eat a wide variety of foods. Medium to long term fish, white and red meat are healthy foods. Eat a balanced diet for your individual needs. And we are all slightly different.
Doing vegetarian properly takes an enormous amount of work. It can be done, but it's not optimal. If you need evidence of that, ask how many Indian Hindus dominate at the Olympics? 700 million people and they're barely represented. Diet matters. Essential nutrients and amino acids matter if you want to perform at your maximum potential.
@@kma3647 Not really against eating meet. But I need to call out your false causation. First thing first not all Hindus are vegetarians and most people who play in Olympics probably are not. State of Haryana in India holds one of the largest percentage of vegiterians as well as the best of our wrestlers who have won Olympic medals for us. The issue of poor performance in Olympics is not vegetarian diet but lack of proper institutions and lack of encouragement for any sport other than cricket. It has nothing to do with 20-30% Indian population being vegetarian.
@@richardthompson6366 yes, we are omnivores, in the sense that we can, unlike a cow, consume "the other food", but not in the way you think. For hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of years, even before we became concious, we consumed meat. As monkeys, we consumed meat and we evolved from said diet. Even as homo sapiens, we consumed meat and fat. The "omnivore" claim is about us eating berries and roots FROM TIME TO TIME. We were not, however meant to consume insane amounts of carbohydrates at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Bread, rice, pasta, I won't even mention sweets. The Standard American Diet consists, I think, of 70% of carbs. That's why the Scandinavians were taller and stockier than the rest of Europeans. They ate more animal products. Hell, I'm not sure if you are aware, but in Poland there is this "low fat" yogurt called Skyr. Very popular stuff. Unfortunately. The Vikings considered it an insult to offer someone Skyr as it was so useless and devoid of fat that only slaves ate it.
Search for the Pure study. It's the one epidemiological study carnivores will accept. It found that saturated fat was correlated with longer life but it failed to properly adjust for the income disparity , and as we know, poor people die sooner. The Adventist health study two is far better and controls for all sorts of variables but that one doesn't confirm their bias so it's dismissed on the grounds of being epidemiology. Yes , it's a massive double standard , and this is the point at which the carnivores/ low carbers have stalled the debate for many years now. They have faith that evidence will emerge to support their belief . I have faith that I'll base my beliefs on evidence.
I usually respect peterson but there is a lot of stuff that he did leave out that is very important. - Most plant-based agriculture is there to feed the animals we eat - if we were to distribute that to humans more humans could live off of way less - He compares the green house emissions by animals in the US whereas a lot of animals that are eaten in the US are imported - He does not take into consideration the suffering for animals (sentient beings), where in his own books he quotes the mode of his own being as to "minimize suffering as much as possible" - Mulitple studies show that it is indeed possible and healthier to sustain a vegan diet than a food-pyramid diet (he is not wrong with the food pyramid, but carnivore isnt the only alternative, and it is indeed, when having to decide between only meat and only vegan, the worse decision for most people and the environment) Edit: I looked up the study he quoted where he says removing animals from US would only decrease US GHG by 2.6. That is correct but VERY POORLY PHRASED! It reduces US total contribution to WORLD-WIDE GHG by 2.6 absolute percentage points, meaning that if we only remove animal farming from the US alone (which compared to world-wide animal farming isn't even such a big part) and leave every other country as it is we would already reduce world-wide GHG by 2.6 percentage points, which is A LOT considering US is not the center of the world, neither the biggest nor the most influential country nor the country with most animal farming world-wide. The study he quotes himself does not provide sufficient explanation on why the so-called "nutritional requirements" of the US population are not supported by a plant-based diet. The study says removing all animal live-stock to zero would "decrease agricultural US GHGs [by] 28%", which again is a lot. @J P Education it would be nice if quoted sources were added to the description as it took very long to find the correct study based on some very unspecific and poorly phrased quote.

- Animals often are fed the remnants or the low quality part of the agricultural products for human nutrition. Further you can't cultivate the same thing every year and forage crops are quite useful for crop rotation. Animal dung is an important fertilizer which has to be replaced by chemical fertilizers if you abolish farm animals. - I'm all for buying meat from species-appropriate husbandry and local suppliers. But I don't think that the vegan idea of abolishing animal husbandry is in any way in the interest of animals since it will inevitably result in their extinction (with the applause of the vegan environmentalists, since those animals are a useless burden for the planet and a vicious competitor for the vegan's soy beans). Vegans aren't calling for happy cows, they want no cows at all.

@@julienfroidevaux1143 Every life inevitably ends with death in one way or another. Slaughter houses aren't happy places but humans can do something to improve the conditions and avoid stress and fear to the animals, for example by mobile or pasture slaughtering.

while I am big fan of JP, wouldn't the large percentage of overweight people be more realistically explained by fast food and soft drinks (specially), I don't think people would bother going as far as strictly following a government /corporate food pyramid?
It's not the food pyramid recommendations that elevated our disease risk, but the fact that most whole foods, including all whole grains that are higher in carbohydrates yet also contain many micronutrients and fiber, cost more (in $ amount or time needed to prepare) than most packaged foods. So inevitably people will opt for more affordable, convenient, palatable and often addictive packaged foods which are usually not fit for long term consumption. Oreos, skittles, fast food containing high fructose corn syrup and oil, nut butters and generally ultraprocessed foods are not what the food pyramid recommends, yet that's what people in the western world mostly eat.
You might be right. I thought I was strange, because the soft, sweet, sophisticated, refined food of the first world countries don't agree with my system. I had to go back to the simple, unprocessed diet of some previous generations to feel good in my skin.
@@tempestsonata1102 understandable to feel you are strange, that’s how ingrained this first world lifestyle has become. That’s why fad diets are on the rise more than ever before. I’m glad you found the answer in eating a balanced diet made up of mostly whole foods. That’s a way of eating you can stick to long term. Unfortunately the same system that profits off ultraprocessed foods also benefits from confusing us. Demonising carbs (an essential macronutrient), promoting skipping meals, eating a restrictive diet such as raw, carnivore, keto, vegan etc. Anything to make us look away from the truth.
When searching out dietary advice, it's best to go directly to a psychologist. If the diet dosent work out they can simply provide you with all the necessary prescriptions to forget it happened. Remember, psychologists caused the opioid epidemic ;)
People aren't eating too many carbs because of 40 year old food pyramid or government instruction - they are doing so because carbs like chips and other junk foods are addicting and cheap. Processed food won out big time for the boomers, and that is what is killing us.
4:15 actually livestock accounts for 14.5% of greenhouse gases - UC Davis, insideclimatechange, Oxford Academic. And it's higher if you include the deforestation caused by livestock farming.
That’s true if you rate methane as having 80x more warming power than CO2 … Which it does. But, since methane dissipates over 10 years and does not accumulate, the amount in the atmosphere from cattle is constant (actually it’s slightly decreasing since the total head of cattle is decreasing). It has been roughly constant for 20,000,000 years or so due to vast numbers of Buffalo and Bison on the planet before man wiped them out. If methane from cattle increased global temperatures, even slightly, then after 20,000,000 years the planet would be toast by now.
I am afraid Peterson does not understand one thing in 4:14 - if people bred more livestock, we would also need even more plant production than now, since animals eat plants. From milk you get around 15 kcal from every 100 kcal of plants eaten by a cow and around 8 kcal in meat from every 100 kcal eaten by an animal (cows are less efficient in terms of that than pigs or chickens, they gain muscle mass slower). Hence switching to carnivore means increasing plant agriculture as well as animal agriculture.
So now, instead of a cow with four stomachs to asimilate what they eat, we now will transfer all the farting to humans. Since i turned carnivore, i don't even fart any more, not once in three months.

@@M44-o9w Actually, there's a lot of science behind low carb diets. And if you feel better on low carb, listen to your body. Losing 15kg of fat and lower fasting blood glucose is pretty factual for me.

At the Conservative Conference this year, there was a private meeting on 10.30 a.m. on Monday morning, 'The Social Market Foundation and Impossible Foods' 'How can alternative proteins contribute to Britain's quest to be the next global science super-power?' Crickets and grasshoppers may be unhappy about this.
Always been a fan JP, but this is very wrong on so many levels and kinda feels like you been sucked into these conspiracy theories online. Virtually everything said was not factual, and in other points, was actually worse in the meat industries. You pointed out lobbyist on grain products, but it is very well known, if you actually look, that in the time period you speak of, meat industries put far more pressure on governments. They swayed the food pyramid much more. The main sin in regards to grains at this time, is that they did not properly separate whole grains, intact, versus processed, fibreless grains.
I never heard that the original food pyramid was that bad. I thought carbs weren't that bad for you if you burned through the calories that you ate. I have always used the food pyramid shown as a rough guide to what to eat, and I was never fat. I do try to cut out artificial sweeteners from my diet. I have traveled abroad, and in all the countries I visited, the people there worried less about what they ate and were less fat. I personally lost weight every time I went overseas even as I laxed my usual dietary constraints. So, I personally believe that corn syrup and other processed foods are much more to blame for obesity in America than the food pyramid. Even if it's true that carbohydrates are overhyped on the pyramid, do you really think that most people got to be obese from eating too much pasta and bread? I think the problem is too much soda and processed sweets. Whatever problems might exist in the food pyramid, I think the average obese American would actually benefit from following it, since doughnuts and coca cola are obviously so much worse for you than pasta. In France, when the people were starving before the revolution, they said that they didn't have enough bread. When I was in Russia, I heard something along the lines of "bread gives life," and beer was called "liquid bread". Given these common phrases around bread, it seems safe to assume that bread was historically the most commonly consumed food in Europe by a wide margin. So, blaming obesity on carbs does not make sense, since carbs are an ancient part of our diet and obesity is modern. The real problem is that people consume more calories than they take in. Secondarily, the problem is that we eat too many processed foods. I can't imagine the food pyramid coming in more than 3rd place in this list. I think it probably actually had a net positive effect if it made some people choose to eat a sandwich sometimes rather than some processed sweets. I do not like these videos of Jordan Peterson where he reads from a script. He seems simultaneously more judgmental and less well informed than usual.
The man went Carnivious diet and almost died and blamed it on his wife getting cancer. Just because he's smart doesn't mean he's always right. But people just want to nod along and agree whatever the famous person says
Thumbs up for being reasonable about this. I do have to disagree on the first point however: If your food causes diabetes, your body will willfully decrease his metabolism and try to build up fat. That's what high insulin and diabetes do. Therefore this diet will cause people to consume more calories than they use up, except for professional athletes. "I can't imagine" is a pretty bad argument btw, even professionals can sometimes not imagine certain things that turn out to be true in the end, so you should be careful about that ^^
You can't survive without protein and fats, but you don't need carbs. Your body can synthesise the small amount of glucose it needs. All other stories are lies and vegan propaganda. Back in the days they called bread, potatoes and rice poor people food. Most people have no ideas how these lobbies in the food and Pharma industries go hand in hand. These scientists and doctors who support this narrative are crooks and bank on the sick and their misery. I'm not saying you can't eat carbs, but not in the amount most people eat it. Here in the West a lot of people have desk jobs so....
I sometimes like Peterson, especially in psychology and sociology. However, he's absolutely wrong about nutrition or climate, and it is upsetting that people who love him can't seem to tell when he's right or wrong, they tend to follow him blindly, and that's dangerous.
I've been eating only plants (vegan diet) for 12 years. Most of what I eat is carbohydrates. I'm lean and strong. I work out 3 times a week doing Calisthenics. I oppose the lies of the industry as any self thinker would, and I have great respect to JP, but except for calling out the food pyramid JP doesn't know what he's talking about here. I recommend you listen to Dr. David Sinclair's podcast.
Jordan is off the rails on this topic, which makes me skeptic on other topics he discusses, since he has no problem discussing this but doesn't have the knowledge, this makes me question if the same is true about other "opinions" he has. I have a lot of counter arguments on this topic. I am gonna need to really look into other topics he discusses now after seeing this video

Though Jim has probably incorporated some of it into his practices, as it's based around the idea of balancing the O2/CO2.

vegetables are a substitute for 'nothing'. It just makes you full somehow, with the result of overall reduction in calories. Its just a neutral food you exploit for satiety
It's almost like we all have a microbiome ecosystem in our gut working in tandem with our physical being and thus need an appropriate diet for it. As such, perhaps claiming there is one unified path to making a cohesive internal ecosystem between our body, our gut flora and the food we eat is naive at best and malicious at worst. But what do I know? It's not like I have spent over 30 years living in my body and know when certain diets are throwing things off or helping. Nope, just follow the broad instruction of institutions blindly. That's a great idea. As a side note. Since switching to a higher protein and fat diet: I have far more energy, require less sleep, have better natural muscle tone, purchase less food due to higher satiety, no longer require caffeine to feel awake, have had several dental appointments in a row where they have complimented my teeth (having had chronic cavity issues before), less brain fog, my anxiety is lower and I feel more competent. I am not saying everybody do this or that this is "the diet". This is MY diet and it is helping me. I recommend you get in touch with your own nutrition and be willing to rethink the way you eat. You will be amazed what opportunity you are leaving off the table by not learning what your body likes.

That's all nonsense, but don't be sad, because its very very common nonsense. Most people believe it. Make no mistake, vegans are that nutritionally deficient and mentally impaired that they would have all meat banned if possible, which would be absolutely DISASTEROUS for society and set us backward.
My wife had a similar story in which once she turned vegan "for the health benefits" she started consuming insane amounts of carbs to replace the satiating animal fat and protein she had thus far been consuming, she immediately put on a lot of weight. And she didn't stuff herself with sweets, either, just lots of bread, rice, empty plant protein in the form of beans, starches, even followed the "combine starches and legumes to get your amino acids" bullshit, and the like. In short, she did what the food industry and the vegan brainwashing told her to do. She said that a lack of animal fat and protein (which your brain is built from, btw) caused sunken eyes, yellow skin, severe mental problems, no concentration, bad memory and teeth problems she never had before. Not to mention her hair was falling out at a startling rate and her nails were breaking. In short, she did everything the industries told her to do. She said that the day she broke down and ate an egg (and with what guilt that was, too) her brain suddenly switched. She said it was incredible. Hell, throughout history, people knew what to eat. Even peasants in Poland, while they had less access to meat, they still kept animal products (dairy and fat) a huge part of their diets. It's all a plan to keep people sick and dependent. Even Socrates wrote about how you can subjagte people by forcing them a plant based diet.
Cause vegan don't consume milk , honey etc . But if you follow a vegetarian valance diet there is no need to worry. Lots of buddist monks already live with vegetarian diet . Milking a vow is not giving pain neither do taking honey if we take in right amount from them
There is no such thing as empty plant protein. Also, plant protein is not in a form of starch. Starch is a carbohydrate. You don't know what you're talking about.
I rarely eat bread and only eat brown rice. Lots of tofu, tempeh, lentils, nutritional yeast, seitan, etc. Sounds like your wife wasn’t eating right and probably not eating enough nutritional yeast/fortified foods/B12 supplement. That’s her fault. I know plenty of healthy long-term vegans including myself.
Meat is neither necessary nor good for you. And as for milk and dairy products, they're not good either. And we are also the only species on Earth which drinks the milk of other animals. Cows' milk is for cows, not for human beings. So-called veganism is the only way forward whether people want to accept it or not. I would never tell people what to eat because it's not any of my business apart from anything else but veganism is definitely the healthiest diet. Meat is simply murder served up on a plate, and I want nothing to do with the murder industry.
Harvard has analyzed the pure study, they said. “The Pure study makes headlines but the conclusions are misleading” and “The main messages for nutritional advice have not changed: follow a healthy dietary pattern that includes abundant amounts of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, and nuts; moderate amounts of reduced-fat dairy products and seafood; and lower amounts of processed and red meat, sugar-sweetened foods and beverages, and refined grains. Such a dietary pattern does not need to limit total fat intake but the main types of fat should be unsaturated fats from plant sources rather than animal fat.”

I’ve been vegan for over 10 years and 12 years no meat. I’m the only one in my family with a normal bmi, all the rest of my family eats meat dairy eggs and are all over weight except for myself. Every diet, vegan or non can be healthy or unhealthy. If you eat a lot of junk as a vegan or meat eater you will be fat. I’ve also recently had a full blood panel done as I was curious of my iron, calcium, kidney and liver function and all of the above including the rest of my tests all were positive results with being in the middle to higher end of all the nutrition! My calcium was actually the best. That’s after 12 years no meat and 10 years fully vegan. Do I think it’s sustainable for everyone? No, but I also think that believing that going vegan and eating carbs makes you fat is an extremely outdated idea which is not based on science … at all. The idea of not eating meat making you unhealthy is really strange and truly an American idea as I’ve worked with as a nanny before with Indian families who never in their lives are any meat or eggs, very little dairy in the form off paneer, and over 90% of their diet was lentils and other beans like rajma, which is kidney beans, and Chana or chole which is chickpeas, they eat lentils and rice in so many forms and let me tell you these are the healthiest people I’ve ever seen in my life and they have also been fully vegan for over 20 years with 2 home birthed children, the mom is a heavy weight lifter and major cyclists, they both have masters degrees and have the best bone and teeth structure I’ve ever seen in a person. With their primary protein being lentils. Their parents mom and dad also never have eaten meat in their lives and most their family before that as they were all raised Jain which is a non violent religion. I do truly believe veganism is NOT for everyone, but to deny that it can be healthy is silly. Eating a lot of bread and processed empty carbohydrates is NOT what I’m talking about. A healthy dirty balanced with lots of spices which are all high in minerals , legumes like red lentil, toor dal which is the yellow split pea and many others along with veggies and fruits and grains like quinoa, rice, amaranth, barley. Idc what you say, this has been studied and these things are healthy for you. Yeah sure if you take all the vitamins and fiber from a grain , bleach it white, and then add sugar and fat to it and then spread more fat on it and eat it, no one is saying that’s healthy, and that you won’t put on weight. Every diet is different based off the individual. Vegetarianism and veganism is not a new idea.
It seems quite likely that veganism is easily achieved for the vast majority (and thankfully at lower cost than the current diet). For the minority like Peterson's family, it may require medical intervention in the form of gut health treatment, but still possible.
In medieval Europe only the nobles were allowed to eat meat, hunting and selling meat without their permission was a crime. Peasantry vs nobility is a pretty damn apt analogy. Peasants were though allowed to eat fish, so maybe they were better off.

We are omnivores. It’s okay to eat meat and it’s okay to not eat meat. What the woke people nor anyone else are addressing is that fact that the anthropogenic mass has exceeded the global living biomass. This is THE problem. I hate this human centric way of thinking, that for some reason we are more special than all other life on this planet. It’s hubris. It’s pointless to talk about eating less meat, using less plastic, gas, oil if we refuse to talk about our population and what a human really needs versus what a human wants.
Pasture-based farming .. that is raising animals on pasture, ranching, dairy .. is completely sustainable. When a more complete analysis, that includes all inputs and outputs, is done, pasture-based farming is carbon POSITIVE. That means it sequesters carbon. Grazing animals eat grass and weeds that we can't eat. They add nourishment to the soil and convert non-arable into arable land. We have known this since ancient times. Confinement feeding operations are the worst, for many reasons. Get to know your farmers and ranchers. Join a group buying club. Eat more ground meat, and reduce portion sizes. Make it affordable. Trust your body to know what it needs and stop listening to "experts" driven by political ideologies.
The truth of the matter is the average unhealthy persons diet is centered around red meat (burgers, steak, bacon, lunch meats) refined carbohydrates (French fries, white rice, white bread, cereal) and fructose (high fructose corn syrup, fruit juice) all foods which are proven to be deleterious to the human organism.
When social engineers mess with "optimizing" the food supply, it usually leads to mass starvation and unconscionably large death tolls: see Ukraine's Holodomor, the Chinese cultural revolution, Rhodesia -> Zimbabwe's fall from being the "breadbasket of Africa", now being repeated in South Africa because apparently the communists there didn't learn the first time that taking racial revenge against a bunch of farmers who never harmed you was a bad idea... Every time they do it, people die by the millions. Do NOT let these people get away with it. This is an existential issue. Make them leave the farmers alone.

I didnt have many health if any health issues previously though gained a lot more strength and energy. My partner on the otherhand was full of health issues until going vegan. I understand JP's stance since he pretty much had to be on a meat only diet during his health crisis. And have seen/ heard many people who have gone on more meat based diets as that was the only thing that was helping, along with previous long-term vegans. Though taking a stab at plant-based is in my opinion the wrong way to aim or not as accurate. Should be more directing our energy to actual healthy eating strategies for the individual and get rid of the crap that is being marketed to the masses, which is sustaining this health crisis.

Moreover, I don't even THINK about eating in the meantime. But when I mostly eat carbs, I still have a strong craving for cookies or candy after a large meal and I feel like I have to keep eating until I cannot anymore. Protein and fat is the way to go!
If we feel "low" in our house (change of season, long work hours, etc.) we eat hamburgers (no bun) with mushrooms and au jus gravy with a small potato for 3 nights in a row. It works like a charm. Vegetables optional for colour. Beef is especially energizing and anti-depressant. The potato's resistant starch feeds your microbiome .. also anti-depressant. This is ranched ground meat .. no support of confinement feeding operations here. It really isn't that difficult or expensive to feel great.

First of all, let me mention that I love most of Dr Peterson's work. Adopt responsibility, tell the truth and stop making everything worse. He really deserves respect. In the past I heard a smart man say, that society takes one smart person's word outside of his area of experties. So this is the case as well. We just think he knows best in every area. I like that he mentions that the goverment should not dictate the food guidelines, however it's a suggestion and also with a lot of science behind it, now I know there are two sides to every coin, but he did not mention any studies, and just states stuff as pure facts. I would really love to see him talk to a meat doctors and vegan docotr, going through the research and see if he changes his mind, since there is a loooot of information. I think he is just tired of the authoritarian ideas behind every goverment, which is good, but most of the time goverments do provide good guidelines, for example - exercise regularly, eat fruits, avoid bad habbits like alcohol etc. Also one clear distinction - there are carbs and carbs... just like there are fats and fats... so we can't just say cars are bad, since like anything there is a lot of details in there - processed carbs (such as sugar) are bad, however it's hard to find a study that suggests the same for oats for example.

I'm with you on all this. I just want to add a caveat that JBP literally thrives best with nothing but ruminant meat and salt. Even cutting broccoli (the last plant he was eating) out of his diet seemed to make a difference for him.

Develop critical and objective thinking and pursue the truth, the raw truth.

Read books, digest information, look at the evidence, listen to both sides, then decide for yourself. Also, I suspect it's not that you've been lied to about everything, merely that you've understood nothing that you've been told.

Well stated friend. There will always be pitfalls of course, (due in part to the quality of information one is presented with for analysis and the motives of the individuals who put out that info.) but an individual is always better off trying to be as objective as possible, while critically questioning Everything before they decide what to believe, embrace and adopt into practice as part of their lifestyle.
Critical Thinking is FEARED by many in power I believe. Almost as much as Unity among The Peoples. It is in fact one of the greatest Enemies of Authoritarian Rule I would assert.

Brawndo from Idiocracy, where it became the entire food pyramid.
Based.
It's the food hierarchy

You mean competence hierarchy 🤓
I eat plant based and haven't had issues. My cholesterol, triglycerides and inflammation markers are low and iron deficiency is no longer. My athletic performance, strength and lean muscle mass is also at an advanced level for not dedicating my life to it. That being said I still don't agree with the food pyramid recommendations. 6 servings of grains a day seems off to me or at least it's what I don't feel good eating and would gain weight if I did so. I'm currently preparing for my first bodybuilding show and currently am eating daily 160g of protein, 160g of carbs, 57g of fat, in under 2000 calories. My fruit is either a banana or a cup of blueberries, my vegetables are typically sweet potato, leafy greens, micro greens and broccoli, I eat 1 serve of grains most days which are oats and the rest of my meals are protein sources. What places with the least diet related issues and greatest life expectancy even till this day have in common eating whole foods. Some rarely eat meat at all like the traditional Okinawans yet they've been renowned to have lived much longer than the average. Don't get caught up in blaming carbs and plants and this and that just because it doesn't work for you. If you're absorbing nutrients, if you're food is good quality and whole food, if you're gut is happy, if you're body fat and fitness is at good level for hormone production then you're diet is a healthy and supportive one. It feels weird being a living example of great health while eating plants and coming across some people being unable to accept that because of their own issues... Like they clearly get angry about it for some reason and then come up with wacky excuses such as i'm still living off nutrients from over 5 years ago or I just happen to be the exception along with my husband and in-laws who decided to not eat meat ethically for our situation and actually eat properly and understand what we need rather than juice fasts and the other fads.

Most livestock is raised on land that would not be suitable for cultivation. If the livestock didn't exist, that land still would not be used for farming grains or vegetables.
Have been vegetarian my entire life. Perfectly in shape and full of energy. Have no craving for meat and will never have it unless I absolutely need to. Same for my previous 10 generations. Mostly vegetarians. My vegetarian grandmother is 91 and is still in decent shape. Its not very difficult to be a vegetarian and to be perfectly healthy and I think that's reason enough for people to give it a try.
I think being ovo-pescatarian is a much more realistic option for most people.
yes, Jordan is very wrong on this topic, keep it up, just a tip though, I would reccomend removing veg oils from the diet
This is absolute nonsense. Nothing what you eat has any nutritional value at all. I don't know a vegetarian alive that's physically fit and mentally stable.
@@stevethebutcher1776 not true, potatoes, milk, eggs, fruit are probably to most nutritious safe food you can get, meat has some good stuff in it, but you run the risk of iron overload
@@stevethebutcher1776 There are more than 300 million vegetarians in my country and they certainly are not in bad physical or mental health. They include educated and competent doctors, lawyers, businessmen, and even sports players. Just because you don't know them does not mean that they don't exist.
Remember though, carbohydrates aren't BAD, the modern highly refined state and over-consumption is bad.
Really?! I loved J.P. I think I still do. But this needs to stop Sir! Jordan Peterson used to acknowledge he's no diet expert and specifically asked people not to take his diet just based on his word. Now that's changed.
Also, am I the only guy missing this? Jordan Peterson, his daughter and his wife. All of whom I assume are good people who want to do good for the society. But all of them went off the radar for months, in several cases had to be rushed to the ER for allergic reactions due to a fucking apple cider vinegar! I wasn't really surprised at this because his microbiome is practically non existent after only living on beef and salt for decades.
I'm a vegetarian and have battled with depression all my life because sugar addiction is a real problem with vegetarian diets that tend to be high on refined carbs and sugars. But i made progress fixing it and breakfast was a big part of it. Including high protein and fat sources was a big part of it.
I greatly believe that vegetarians can have a healthy diet. It's a process. It is not easy. Well, easier than an all beef and salt diet.
Why this fascination towards ancient man. We do nothing that our ancestors do and still cling on to their diet. They stayed in caves and lived for less than 20 years on an average didn't they? They weren't civilized. We are the apex predators and the smartest sentient beings. We figured out agriculture , now what? Well, use it so we don't have to end lives of animals to stay alive. Is that too much?!
Human population exploded because of agriculture, as per Yuval Noah Harari and I agree. So, now what? Call Thanos to wipe out half the earth? Nope! We cannot raise so many animals for this much population. Agriculture is way more efficient. Just don't eat so many fucking carbs! You don't have to go ape shit on every living and crawling being.
Vegetarians are not worthless drooly sleepy slackers. I present to you Sundar Pichai running the most advanced fucking company on the planet. Nataie portman , an entrepreneur , oscar winner, mom, wife ... the list goes on and on.
I "cling onto it" for two reasons... one is because after 60 years of listening to my doctor's bullshit and trying your way, it's the first thing that's worked for me, the second reason is, most of us are biologically programmed to eat animal basd protein. So inconclusion, you believe and eat what you want to, but don't try and shove this new world order lies and bullshit down my throat without respect for others' points of view. My suggestion to you is stop thinking an everincreasing population is acceptable.

You can't blame all of America's 'health issues' on the 'old' food pyramid. The next time you go the grocery store bring an electron-microscope and see if you can learn to pronounce half of the ingredients on the label and if you're able to do so in under an hour.
Try and pronounce all the proteins, amino acids and sugars contained naturally in food. Just because you can't pronounce something doesn't mean it's bad. It's a shame that something as obvious as this needs to be frequently stated.
Most things with long list of ingredients are processed carbohydrates.

@@kewpified I really miss my mom's cooking as well as my mother-in-law's. Every Sunday and on holidays my mom would make a 13 course 'home-cooked' meal fit for a king and during the week my wife's mom would make us the finest chicken casserole on the planet, because she knew I loved it so.
My wife cooked out of a box and can or picked up some fast-food on the way home from work.

@@Competitive_Antagonist You are indeed 'antagonistic' as your name implies. I was speaking of 'processed foods' which according to Google, "make up 70 percent of the U.S. diet." In addition, have you noticed the 'new' food labels that list "bioengineered food ingredients?" This term is now found on the; hoagies, sandwiches and sweet cakes sold in convenience stores. But just last month I purchased two dozen cans of 'Sirloin Burger with Country Vegetables' and 'Classic Chicken Noodle Soup with White Meat Chicken' and to my dismay, all 24 cans contain "bioengineered food ingredients."
The label goes on to state that the "corn, soy and sugar in this product come from genetically modified crops." That's GMO's! Deploying (deliberate use of a military term) GMO's in a nation's food supply is illegal (a criminal act) in 60 countries, including Mexico. Just 2 years ago I read an in-depth article about GMO's. Japanese scientists did the world's most comprehensive analysis of foods containing GMO's and concluded that not only do foods containing GMO's provide considerably less nutritional value but are actually bad for one's health. GMO's cause illness, disease and obesity.
Our government ought to 'tarred and feathered' for allowing these 'empty-calorie-toxins' in our food supply. Again, even Mexico doesn't allow these 'poisons' to be sold as 'food' and Mexico is a 'Third World Country.' Worse still, thanks to 'Commie Joe', 'We The People' (a reference to the Constitution) have to worry about shortages of such 'foods.' And even worse still, the price of these 'modified toxins' went up 50 cents a can since the last time I purchased them in 2021. Apparently in America one even has to pay more to commit 'slow-motion-suicide' these days.
PS: No wonder 'homesteading' has become so popular. Apparently if one desires
to eat 'real food' one has to grow their own vegetables and raise their own livestock.

This summer, the Governor General and her entourage racked up a $93,000 catering bill going to Dubai. (Source: every national media outlet in the country). I did some quick math based on the length of the trip and number of people in her "entourage" (it was 30, just around rap singer numbers). Her staff spent approx. $350 / day on food. Let's be "generous" and admit that Dubai is a high cost jurisdiction (which it is). That is still an outrageous amount for government employees and outstrips anything I have ever spent. Clearly cognac, filet mignon and lobster for our betters and insects and weeds for us peasants.

Dr. Peterson, I'm a nutritionist and a huge admirer of your work. I would please ask you to take notice on the fact that your influence and reach in young and adult minds is vast and you should be responsible with what you produce and put out there because, as you know, some individuals will take everything you say as facts. And I, as a nutritionist, can say that you are wrong. Please stay in your field and be more considerate, humble and responsible with your statements and your followers. You stating one study to "debunk" thousands of others, comes off as shallow and as ignorant as it can be.

@@aisbcatering831 What part did he butcher?
I used to eat pretty much whatever when it came to food. Then I went to college and had a hard time maintaining a good diet. I went about 5 months without eating meat, not on purpose, time just flew by. During that summer I went to have a hamburger, made from elk my stepdad had hunted. I became very sick. I tried to have a steak a couple weeks later and became very sick again. I was able to eat fish without getting sick, but after a while, due to the cost of fish, I gave that up (did feel great with fish in the diet). Ever since, I have been a vegetarian and still feel great. I stay low with carbs in rice and noodles and have veggies with a low amount of beans. For snacks, fruit. Just sharing my experience. I do not care what people eat or want to eat; my whole family eats meat other than me now. I think everyone is just different and some things will work for some people and not for others.

Blood type A are natural vegetarians with some fish and the occasional egg
The longest living civilisations in history eat mainly plants. Starch, grains, fruits, veggies, nuts, seeds, pulses, rice and legumes. Those who are strictly vegan live the longest. Anthropological evidence now clearly points to the fact that our ancestors only ate a very small amount of meat (mainly during the winter months) the rest of the time it was tubers, berries, seeds, nuts and fruits. The reason we developed developed fingers and thumbs was to pick and peel these foods (like the great apes). Also much easier and safer than chasing a sabre tooth tiger or a mammoth. We don’t have the teeth or hands or digestive tract to eat raw meat. If you disagree try catching a squirrel or rabbit (without weapons) kill it and eat it raw. “Good luck with that then” as JP commonly says!
Eek, Jordan, i've supported most of your views before, but this time, nah. I think i'll stick with Dr Greger and people who actually know a little about nutrition
Fair enough, however he doesn't mention the amount of deforestation and water expenditure for breeding animals. Additionally what type of carbohydrates did that sample group consume? Refined or whole grain? I mean, white flour is as bad as refined sugar. One more thing to add, carbohydrates might seem to be the leading cause of diabetes, but, for insulin resistance to occur, the cells' receptors have to be clogged with fat. The type of fat that tends to stick around more is transfats and saturated fats, the latter found mostly in animals. Finally, processed fats like refined oil and butter, regardless if they are saturated or not, are to natural found fats what white floor is to whole grains.
How embarrassing was this for JP! I have so much respect for him and hopefully e soo. realises how wrong he has been on the topic of consuming meat. I guess no one can be expected to be on point 100% of the time.
I completely agree, i've agreed with lots of points he's had in the past, but i think this time he's really bitten off more than he can chew. Unfortunately i don't doubt the majorty of his followers, particually alot of the younger and more naive, will just just straight on this and label anyone else a sheep who doesn't agree. I think i trust Dr Greger a bit more than Dr Peterson when it comes to food. And i'm a relatively young person saying this! Lol

I’d really recommend people go listen to Simon Hill’s podcast on plant based eating. It’s not only sustainable, it’s a vastly more effective means of feeding lots of people. Animal ethics aside (which is reason enough to stop eating meat and dairy) - there’s absolutely no question that diets high in saturated fats (which are high in red meat) raises serum cholesterol; a main driver of atherosclerosis. Carbohydrates aren’t inherently evil - infact, eating more fibre is probably the most beneficial way people could improve their diets. The problem is that over-indulgence in processed foods. People can feel good eating these minimalist carnivore diets because it restricts a lot of these foods - but ‘feeling good’ certainly doesn’t equate to positive long-term health outcomes. I understand the temptation to bundle plant based eating in with the woke/progressive types, but this is simply ad-hominem. A well constructed plant-based diet which is high in fibre and unsaturated fats is very likely one of the healthiest diets around, and there is plenty of evidence to support that.

I went plant based for about 4 years and it helped clear a lot of my health issues, but beyond that it was not sustainable for me. I think generally we are designed to eat a wide variety of foods. Medium to long term fish, white and red meat are healthy foods. Eat a balanced diet for your individual needs. And we are all slightly different.
No single other species needs a balanced diet to survive. Why do you think we do?
Doing vegetarian properly takes an enormous amount of work. It can be done, but it's not optimal. If you need evidence of that, ask how many Indian Hindus dominate at the Olympics? 700 million people and they're barely represented. Diet matters. Essential nutrients and amino acids matter if you want to perform at your maximum potential.
Omnivores, that's what we are.
@@kma3647 Not really against eating meet. But I need to call out your false causation. First thing first not all Hindus are vegetarians and most people who play in Olympics probably are not. State of Haryana in India holds one of the largest percentage of vegiterians as well as the best of our wrestlers who have won Olympic medals for us. The issue of poor performance in Olympics is not vegetarian diet but lack of proper institutions and lack of encouragement for any sport other than cricket. It has nothing to do with 20-30% Indian population being vegetarian.
@@richardthompson6366 yes, we are omnivores, in the sense that we can, unlike a cow, consume "the other food", but not in the way you think. For hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of years, even before we became concious, we consumed meat. As monkeys, we consumed meat and we evolved from said diet.
Even as homo sapiens, we consumed meat and fat. The "omnivore" claim is about us eating berries and roots FROM TIME TO TIME.
We were not, however meant to consume insane amounts of carbohydrates at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Bread, rice, pasta, I won't even mention sweets. The Standard American Diet consists, I think, of 70% of carbs.
That's why the Scandinavians were taller and stockier than the rest of Europeans. They ate more animal products. Hell, I'm not sure if you are aware, but in Poland there is this "low fat" yogurt called Skyr. Very popular stuff. Unfortunately.
The Vikings considered it an insult to offer someone Skyr as it was so useless and devoid of fat that only slaves ate it.

Search for the Pure study.
It's the one epidemiological study carnivores will accept.
It found that saturated fat was correlated with longer life but it failed to properly adjust for the income disparity , and as we know, poor people die sooner.
The Adventist health study two is far better and controls for all sorts of variables but that one doesn't confirm their bias so it's dismissed on the grounds of being epidemiology.
Yes , it's a massive double standard , and this is the point at which the carnivores/ low carbers have stalled the debate for many years now.
They have faith that evidence will emerge to support their belief .
I have faith that I'll base my beliefs on evidence.
I usually respect peterson but there is a lot of stuff that he did leave out that is very important.
- Most plant-based agriculture is there to feed the animals we eat - if we were to distribute that to humans more humans could live off of way less
- He compares the green house emissions by animals in the US whereas a lot of animals that are eaten in the US are imported
- He does not take into consideration the suffering for animals (sentient beings), where in his own books he quotes the mode of his own being as to "minimize suffering as much as possible"
- Mulitple studies show that it is indeed possible and healthier to sustain a vegan diet than a food-pyramid diet (he is not wrong with the food pyramid, but carnivore isnt the only alternative, and it is indeed, when having to decide between only meat and only vegan, the worse decision for most people and the environment)
Edit: I looked up the study he quoted where he says removing animals from US would only decrease US GHG by 2.6. That is correct but VERY POORLY PHRASED! It reduces US total contribution to WORLD-WIDE GHG by 2.6 absolute percentage points, meaning that if we only remove animal farming from the US alone (which compared to world-wide animal farming isn't even such a big part) and leave every other country as it is we would already reduce world-wide GHG by 2.6 percentage points, which is A LOT considering US is not the center of the world, neither the biggest nor the most influential country nor the country with most animal farming world-wide. The study he quotes himself does not provide sufficient explanation on why the so-called "nutritional requirements" of the US population are not supported by a plant-based diet. The study says removing all animal live-stock to zero would "decrease agricultural US GHGs [by] 28%", which again is a lot.
@J P Education it would be nice if quoted sources were added to the description as it took very long to find the correct study based on some very unspecific and poorly phrased quote. For all others who are interested:
www.pnas.org/doi/pdf/10.1073/pnas.1707322114
- Animals often are fed the remnants or the low quality part of the agricultural products for human nutrition. Further you can't cultivate the same thing every year and forage crops are quite useful for crop rotation. Animal dung is an important fertilizer which has to be replaced by chemical fertilizers if you abolish farm animals.
- I'm all for buying meat from species-appropriate husbandry and local suppliers. But I don't think that the vegan idea of abolishing animal husbandry is in any way in the interest of animals since it will inevitably result in their extinction (with the applause of the vegan environmentalists, since those animals are a useless burden for the planet and a vicious competitor for the vegan's soy beans).

But nobody followed the food pyramid
Watch plant chompers debunk it on youtube
It's not the food pyramid recommendations that elevated our disease risk, but the fact that most whole foods, including all whole grains that are higher in carbohydrates yet also contain many micronutrients and fiber, cost more (in $ amount or time needed to prepare) than most packaged foods. So inevitably people will opt for more affordable, convenient, palatable and often addictive packaged foods which are usually not fit for long term consumption. Oreos, skittles, fast food containing high fructose corn syrup and oil, nut butters and generally ultraprocessed foods are not what the food pyramid recommends, yet that's what people in the western world mostly eat.
You might be right. I thought I was strange, because the soft, sweet, sophisticated, refined food of the first world countries don't agree with my system. I had to go back to the simple, unprocessed diet of some previous generations to feel good in my skin.
@@tempestsonata1102 understandable to feel you are strange, that’s how ingrained this first world lifestyle has become. That’s why fad diets are on the rise more than ever before. I’m glad you found the answer in eating a balanced diet made up of mostly whole foods. That’s a way of eating you can stick to long term. Unfortunately the same system that profits off ultraprocessed foods also benefits from confusing us. Demonising carbs (an essential macronutrient), promoting skipping meals, eating a restrictive diet such as raw, carnivore, keto, vegan etc. Anything to make us look away from the truth.
When searching out dietary advice, it's best to go directly to a psychologist. If the diet dosent work out they can simply provide you with all the necessary prescriptions to forget it happened. Remember, psychologists caused the opioid epidemic ;)
People aren't eating too many carbs because of 40 year old food pyramid or government instruction - they are doing so because carbs like chips and other junk foods are addicting and cheap. Processed food won out big time for the boomers, and that is what is killing us.
Where are these Jordan Peterson videos like this coming from? Is it a new show of his or what? Thanks anyone.

4:15 actually livestock accounts for 14.5% of greenhouse gases - UC Davis, insideclimatechange, Oxford Academic. And it's higher if you include the deforestation caused by livestock farming.
That’s true if you rate methane as having 80x more warming power than CO2 … Which it does. But, since methane dissipates over 10 years and does not accumulate, the amount in the atmosphere from cattle is constant (actually it’s slightly decreasing since the total head of cattle is decreasing).
It has been roughly constant for 20,000,000 years or so due to vast numbers of Buffalo and Bison on the planet before man wiped them out. If methane from cattle increased global temperatures, even slightly, then after 20,000,000 years the planet would be toast by now.
Doesn't matter, AGW is a hoax and CO₂ is the plant food.
I am afraid Peterson does not understand one thing in 4:14 - if people bred more livestock, we would also need even more plant production than now, since animals eat plants.
From milk you get around 15 kcal from every 100 kcal of plants eaten by a cow and around 8 kcal in meat from every 100 kcal eaten by an animal (cows are less efficient in terms of that than pigs or chickens, they gain muscle mass slower).
Hence switching to carnivore means increasing plant agriculture as well as animal agriculture.
So now, instead of a cow with four stomachs to asimilate what they eat, we now will transfer all the farting to humans. Since i turned carnivore, i don't even fart any more, not once in three months.
The best diet is a seefood diet. I see it, I eat it.

Always been a fan JP, but this is very wrong on so many levels and kinda feels like you been sucked into these conspiracy theories online. Virtually everything said was not factual, and in other points, was actually worse in the meat industries. You pointed out lobbyist on grain products, but it is very well known, if you actually look, that in the time period you speak of, meat industries put far more pressure on governments. They swayed the food pyramid much more. The main sin in regards to grains at this time, is that they did not properly separate whole grains, intact, versus processed, fibreless grains.

@@clarenceday4773 and then there was... silence. 😄
I think jordan peterson should stick to psychology.
I never heard that the original food pyramid was that bad. I thought carbs weren't that bad for you if you burned through the calories that you ate. I have always used the food pyramid shown as a rough guide to what to eat, and I was never fat. I do try to cut out artificial sweeteners from my diet.
I have traveled abroad, and in all the countries I visited, the people there worried less about what they ate and were less fat. I personally lost weight every time I went overseas even as I laxed my usual dietary constraints. So, I personally believe that corn syrup and other processed foods are much more to blame for obesity in America than the food pyramid.
Even if it's true that carbohydrates are overhyped on the pyramid, do you really think that most people got to be obese from eating too much pasta and bread? I think the problem is too much soda and processed sweets. Whatever problems might exist in the food pyramid, I think the average obese American would actually benefit from following it, since doughnuts and coca cola are obviously so much worse for you than pasta.
In France, when the people were starving before the revolution, they said that they didn't have enough bread. When I was in Russia, I heard something along the lines of "bread gives life," and beer was called "liquid bread". Given these common phrases around bread, it seems safe to assume that bread was historically the most commonly consumed food in Europe by a wide margin. So, blaming obesity on carbs does not make sense, since carbs are an ancient part of our diet and obesity is modern.
The real problem is that people consume more calories than they take in. Secondarily, the problem is that we eat too many processed foods. I can't imagine the food pyramid coming in more than 3rd place in this list. I think it probably actually had a net positive effect if it made some people choose to eat a sandwich sometimes rather than some processed sweets.
I do not like these videos of Jordan Peterson where he reads from a script. He seems simultaneously more judgmental and less well informed than usual.
The man went Carnivious diet and almost died and blamed it on his wife getting cancer. Just because he's smart doesn't mean he's always right. But people just want to nod along and agree whatever the famous person says
I agree dude, carbs are bad for those that do nothing to burn them. Those who exercise regularly need them.
Thumbs up for being reasonable about this. I do have to disagree on the first point however:
If your food causes diabetes, your body will willfully decrease his metabolism and try to build up fat. That's what high insulin and diabetes do. Therefore this diet will cause people to consume more calories than they use up, except for professional athletes.
"I can't imagine" is a pretty bad argument btw, even professionals can sometimes not imagine certain things that turn out to be true in the end, so you should be careful about that ^^
You can't survive without protein and fats, but you don't need carbs. Your body can synthesise the small amount of glucose it needs. All other stories are lies and vegan propaganda. Back in the days they called bread, potatoes and rice poor people food. Most people have no ideas how these lobbies in the food and Pharma industries go hand in hand. These scientists and doctors who support this narrative are crooks and bank on the sick and their misery. I'm not saying you can't eat carbs, but not in the amount most people eat it. Here in the West a lot of people have desk jobs so....
Sugar is a carbohydrate...

I sometimes like Peterson, especially in psychology and sociology. However, he's absolutely wrong about nutrition or climate, and it is upsetting that people who love him can't seem to tell when he's right or wrong, they tend to follow him blindly, and that's dangerous.
I've been eating only plants (vegan diet) for 12 years. Most of what I eat is carbohydrates. I'm lean and strong. I work out 3 times a week doing Calisthenics.
I oppose the lies of the industry as any self thinker would, and I have great respect to JP, but except for calling out the food pyramid JP doesn't know what he's talking about here.
I recommend you listen to Dr. David Sinclair's podcast.
Jordan is off the rails on this topic, which makes me skeptic on other topics he discusses, since he has no problem discussing this but doesn't have the knowledge, this makes me question if the same is true about other "opinions" he has. I have a lot of counter arguments on this topic. I am gonna need to really look into other topics he discusses now after seeing this video

It's probably buteyko as that's been said to help sleep apnea. Though Jim has probably incorporated some of it into his practices, as it's based around the idea of balancing the O2/CO2.

vegetables are a substitute for 'nothing'. It just makes you full somehow, with the result of overall reduction in calories. Its just a neutral food you exploit for satiety
It's almost like we all have a microbiome ecosystem in our gut working in tandem with our physical being and thus need an appropriate diet for it. As such, perhaps claiming there is one unified path to making a cohesive internal ecosystem between our body, our gut flora and the food we eat is naive at best and malicious at worst. But what do I know? It's not like I have spent over 30 years living in my body and know when certain diets are throwing things off or helping. Nope, just follow the broad instruction of institutions blindly. That's a great idea.
As a side note. Since switching to a higher protein and fat diet: I have far more energy, require less sleep, have better natural muscle tone, purchase less food due to higher satiety, no longer require caffeine to feel awake, have had several dental appointments in a row where they have complimented my teeth (having had chronic cavity issues before), less brain fog, my anxiety is lower and I feel more competent. I am not saying everybody do this or that this is "the diet". This is MY diet and it is helping me. I recommend you get in touch with your own nutrition and be willing to rethink the way you eat. You will be amazed what opportunity you are leaving off the table by not learning what your body likes.

That's all nonsense, but don't be sad, because its very very common nonsense. Most people believe it.

good presentation.....no music....no faky intro clip....just get right to the point....i like it much better
My wife had a similar story in which once she turned vegan "for the health benefits" she started consuming insane amounts of carbs to replace the satiating animal fat and protein she had thus far been consuming, she immediately put on a lot of weight. And she didn't stuff herself with sweets, either, just lots of bread, rice, empty plant protein in the form of beans, starches, even followed the "combine starches and legumes to get your amino acids" bullshit, and the like. In short, she did what the food industry and the vegan brainwashing told her to do.
She said that a lack of animal fat and protein (which your brain is built from, btw) caused sunken eyes, yellow skin, severe mental problems, no concentration, bad memory and teeth problems she never had before. Not to mention her hair was falling out at a startling rate and her nails were breaking.
In short, she did everything the industries told her to do.
She said that the day she broke down and ate an egg (and with what guilt that was, too) her brain suddenly switched. She said it was incredible.
Hell, throughout history, people knew what to eat. Even peasants in Poland, while they had less access to meat, they still kept animal products (dairy and fat) a huge part of their diets.
It's all a plan to keep people sick and dependent. Even Socrates wrote about how you can subjagte people by forcing them a plant based diet.
Cause vegan don't consume milk , honey etc . But if you follow a vegetarian valance diet there is no need to worry. Lots of buddist monks already live with vegetarian diet . Milking a vow is not giving pain neither do taking honey if we take in right amount from them
There is no such thing as empty plant protein. Also, plant protein is not in a form of starch. Starch is a carbohydrate. You don't know what you're talking about.
Eating “lots of bread and rice” was not very smart or healthy. 🤣🤦🏻♂️
I rarely eat bread and only eat brown rice. Lots of tofu, tempeh, lentils, nutritional yeast, seitan, etc. Sounds like your wife wasn’t eating right and probably not eating enough nutritional yeast/fortified foods/B12 supplement. That’s her fault. I know plenty of healthy long-term vegans including myself.
Meat is neither necessary nor good for you. And as for milk and dairy products, they're not good either. And we are also the only species on Earth which drinks the milk of other animals. Cows' milk is for cows, not for human beings. So-called veganism is the only way forward whether people want to accept it or not. I would never tell people what to eat because it's not any of my business apart from anything else but veganism is definitely the healthiest diet. Meat is simply murder served up on a plate, and I want nothing to do with the murder industry.
Harvard has analyzed the pure study, they said. “The Pure study makes headlines but the conclusions are misleading” and “The main messages for nutritional advice have not changed: follow a healthy dietary pattern that includes abundant amounts of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, and nuts; moderate amounts of reduced-fat dairy products and seafood; and lower amounts of processed and red meat, sugar-sweetened foods and beverages, and refined grains. Such a dietary pattern does not need to limit total fat intake but the main types of fat should be unsaturated fats from plant sources rather than animal fat.”

I’ve been vegan for over 10 years and 12 years no meat. I’m the only one in my family with a normal bmi, all the rest of my family eats meat dairy eggs and are all over weight except for myself. Every diet, vegan or non can be healthy or unhealthy. If you eat a lot of junk as a vegan or meat eater you will be fat. I’ve also recently had a full blood panel done as I was curious of my iron, calcium, kidney and liver function and all of the above including the rest of my tests all were positive results with being in the middle to higher end of all the nutrition! My calcium was actually the best. That’s after 12 years no meat and 10 years fully vegan. Do I think it’s sustainable for everyone? No, but I also think that believing that going vegan and eating carbs makes you fat is an extremely outdated idea which is not based on science … at all. The idea of not eating meat making you unhealthy is really strange and truly an American idea as I’ve worked with as a nanny before with Indian families who never in their lives are any meat or eggs, very little dairy in the form off paneer, and over 90% of their diet was lentils and other beans like rajma, which is kidney beans, and Chana or chole which is chickpeas, they eat lentils and rice in so many forms and let me tell you these are the healthiest people I’ve ever seen in my life and they have also been fully vegan for over 20 years with 2 home birthed children, the mom is a heavy weight lifter and major cyclists, they both have masters degrees and have the best bone and teeth structure I’ve ever seen in a person. With their primary protein being lentils. Their parents mom and dad also never have eaten meat in their lives and most their family before that as they were all raised Jain which is a non violent religion. I do truly believe veganism is NOT for everyone, but to deny that it can be healthy is silly. Eating a lot of bread and processed empty carbohydrates is NOT what I’m talking about. A healthy dirty balanced with lots of spices which are all high in minerals , legumes like red lentil, toor dal which is the yellow split pea and many others along with veggies and fruits and grains like quinoa, rice, amaranth, barley. Idc what you say, this has been studied and these things are healthy for you. Yeah sure if you take all the vitamins and fiber from a grain , bleach it white, and then add sugar and fat to it and then spread more fat on it and eat it, no one is saying that’s healthy, and that you won’t put on weight. Every diet is different based off the individual. Vegetarianism and veganism is not a new idea.
It seems quite likely that veganism is easily achieved for the vast majority (and thankfully at lower cost than the current diet).
For the minority like Peterson's family, it may require medical intervention in the form of gut health treatment, but still possible.
@@parameshnat I wouldn’t be surprised if companies involved in animal agriculture are paying the Petersons to say the things they are saying.
In medieval Europe only the nobles were allowed to eat meat, hunting and selling meat without their permission was a crime. Peasantry vs nobility is a pretty damn apt analogy. Peasants were though allowed to eat fish, so maybe they were better off.

We are omnivores. It’s okay to eat meat and it’s okay to not eat meat.

Pasture-based farming .. that is raising animals on pasture, ranching, dairy .. is completely sustainable. When a more complete analysis, that includes all inputs and outputs, is done, pasture-based farming is carbon POSITIVE. That means it sequesters carbon. Grazing animals eat grass and weeds that we can't eat. They add nourishment to the soil and convert non-arable into arable land. We have known this since ancient times. Confinement feeding operations are the worst, for many reasons. Get to know your farmers and ranchers. Join a group buying club. Eat more ground meat, and reduce portion sizes. Make it affordable. Trust your body to know what it needs and stop listening to "experts" driven by political ideologies.
The truth of the matter is the average unhealthy persons diet is centered around red meat (burgers, steak, bacon, lunch meats) refined carbohydrates (French fries, white rice, white bread, cereal) and fructose (high fructose corn syrup, fruit juice) all foods which are proven to be deleterious to the human organism.
When social engineers mess with "optimizing" the food supply, it usually leads to mass starvation and unconscionably large death tolls: see Ukraine's Holodomor, the Chinese cultural revolution, Rhodesia -> Zimbabwe's fall from being the "breadbasket of Africa", now being repeated in South Africa because apparently the communists there didn't learn the first time that taking racial revenge against a bunch of farmers who never harmed you was a bad idea... Every time they do it, people die by the millions. Do NOT let these people get away with it. This is an existential issue. Make them leave the farmers alone.
