What an amazing man Neal Barnard is. He keeps having to answer the same questions, and he keeps doing it with the same enthusiasm and always exudes happiness and kindness. Thank you!
Bartender Plus he doesn’t understand that people leave their native lands just to come to the states to get trapped into disease. These people are big frauds, saying disease is natural. Smdh
All protein is NOT the same and thats basic nutricion, plant based food does not provide all the amino acids that you need and our body does not produce them. Explain to me how do you obtain all the 20 essential amino acids ONLY from vegetable plants... I wait for you.
@@elmaxidelsur quinoa, buckwheat, hemp seeds, chia seeds, and spirulina contain all 9 essential amino acids you dumb fuck. Mix your vegetables and beans and it would also fill in the gaps. You're not a smart person hey?
@@joshc1821 one of the biggest problems with this ideology is that its completely based on delusion. We didn't get here by eating 30 different kinds of plants. Hello... chia seeds are from Asia. I'm in Africa. How did Africans survive 10k years ago without China seeds? How did your people survive 20k years ago without eating algae and seaweed.

I've been referring my clients to the vegan failure to thrive and vegan brain damage research for too long to know it's a safe or permanent decision. Gosh the emaciation and lack of muscle tone must be a dead giveaway that people need more collagen. I was getting them on supplements including whey and eggs, and fish collagen if they would do it. The glutathione promoters are life extenders and from happy cows but they are animal sourced and raw. @@jgrysiak6566
LOVE Dr. Barnard! He treats everyone with respect, and explains things very simply, and clearly. FYI: kombucha and nutritional yeast both have plenty of B12. I drink kombucha weekly and use nutritional yeast several times a week - I make a lot of raw vegan recipes - and my blood work showed zero deficiencies. 💚
I always hear that vegans should not mess around with b12 and just supplement with it. If you do blood tests and it shows you have sufficient b12 I guess you’re good but I even heard from “nutrition made simple” that plant sources of b12 are not necessarily absorbed and used by the body. The safest way is to supplement with b12 Also if I’m not mistaken Dr. Barnard also recommends supplementing with b12.
My mom raised me healthy by offering (sometimes forcing me to eat) variety of food (meat included), local and in season and in moderation. I truly believe her system and am a living proof. However I realize how polluted and damaging some of farming processes are as well compared to 20,30 years ago. A I found this video provides some helpful insights.
Thank you, it's a clear guide of what to eat without the hype and a short half page of notes to get seriously on with it. I am already diagnosed with low b12 and that was when I was eating meat.
@jasmyne Typing it out in capslock won't make it true. Humans cannot absorb usable B12 from sea vegetables. You are intentionally misinforming people. Vegans need synthetic B12. Stop it.
I have been a vegetarian (not vegan since i consume dairy) my entire life. Never a single health problem for the last 45 years of my life. I don't even get a cold, cough or fever:) My whole family, including relatives and many friends have always been vegetarians. My dad is 75 and in tip-top shape (infact looks like he is 40year old, since he has been doing regular yoga and intense weight training for 2-3 hours at home, not even a gym, for the last 40 years). My mom is equally healthy. Grandma lived till 90, not a single health issue (did not even eat egg, in fact hated it). Our diet only consists of dairy, egg, whole grains, lentils, fruits and vegetables. My cooking only consists of 1 kind of lentil, 1 or 2 kinds of vegetables, maybe 1 fruit and tortilla/rice everyday. No smoothies ever. Everything Neal Barnard said here is true. We are living proofs. So anyone out there thinking of becoming a vegan or vegetarian, go ahead. you'll be fine. You will live a great healthy life. In fact you will save your body and the planet in the process.
@@travis6694 cooked whole vegetables are better. The process when you eat involves various parts of the body right from chewing by teeth to digestion. Food in whole form is this better than smoothies. Body gets stronger when we use all parts of digestion correctly. Cooked veggies get rid of bacteria
I live in hope that someday the protein myth will fade away....someone just asked me The Question a few days ago "where do you get your protein?"~sigh~ Love Dr. Barnard and how he just keeps on being so upbeat and friendly in his approach.
it really is, I've only been vegan for 3 years, but it's already got to the point where I can't even look at someone who asks about protein, especially if they claim to be health conscious at all. I'm just going to get a bunch of t-shirts with gorillas, and rhinos and elephants on them that say, "Do I LOOK protein deficient?" ... I've seen 'em on amazon, so once my x-mas bills are paid off... next shopping trip is for me.
Raw meat and raw animal fat regenerate the body much more than plant protein. Check out Aajonus Vonderplanitz' Primal Diet books, also humans have eaten meat for 2.5 million years. I don't buy the vegan consensus.
@@rumble1925 the problem is plants have anti nutrients. Some people react in the worst ways and some seem to believe they're good. I say seem to "believe" because in reality their not. The diet is not complete. If it was there would be no need to take "supplements", or LOOK for things humans on a large scale have never eaten like seaweed or algae and certainly not things like chia seeds (because efor example Africans have never eaten chia seeds because etheyr not from Africa. And if we have been missing all the glorious nutrients in chia seeds we would have been wiped out.. get the point i hope 😄)
In India, you could make a complete vegan meal plan with 21 different items giving you 125 g of protein and 2450 calories at just $2.25 a day. If you could spend $3.20 a day, you could add protein powder and boost that to 150 g of protein and 2600 calories. You will have to cook on your own. No restaurants. It gets better, you could cut down the rice to give you under 2000 calories but still with 110 g protein without the protein powder at $2.00 per day and 140g with it at $3.00 per day. You could even starve diet at a mere 1400 calories and still get 95g of protein without the protein powder ($1.25 a day) and 120 g of protein with the protein powder ($2.25 a day). Not enough yet? There are places in the world where vegan eating is the cheapest option of 'em all.

@@Mrm1985100 the fact that the food contains that does not mean that can actually eat and ABSORB all those nutrients... Try to make a diet of 1800 calories, tracking how many nutrients you will actually absorb since we are not vegetarian by nature our digestive tract is not long enough to absorb everything out of raw vegetables and you will see that you just can't do it. We are OMNIVORES... we can and SHOULD eat all sources of food.
What a very smart doctor he is, I agree in him. People from Philippines they have long lives bec they do not always eating meat but vegetable, fruits and crops and they have very long lives. I could still remember during the time of my grandmother they are not even eating bread and they are not drinking milk, their snack was only sweet potato, sweet corn and they paired it with sweet corn coffee. They really have long lives like 100+
So simple. Go plant based 🌱 I love the B-12 question. Again, so easy...I take a liquid B-12 supplement and same for Vitamin D. End of story! I went vegan just as a one week cleanse and just never stopped because my body is loving it. Never loved fruits and veggies and a big meat eater but I’m also very good at knowing what my body needs and my body is loving plant eating.
I was vegan for 2 years but I stopped because it made me sick. When I introduced fish, eggs and chicken I started to feel better. Trust me vegan in a long run will damage you.
@The Answer It makes you bloated because you have been so used to animal products which you gut isn't used you. The first couple of week your body is cleansing out all the toxins from your body and your gut is finally starting to work as it should
vitamin B12 excretion is very very slow and it accumulate in liver.be careful of it not to be oversupplied in your body because that case is dangerous and poisonous.
A few years ago I was told I was pre-diabetic and I had hypertension. Doc wanted to put me on statins but he gave me a chance to change my lifestyle. I went vegan. I'm 42 years old and I'm in better shape than when i was in the Marines in my early 20's.
Love Dr. Barnard's new Reversing Diabetes book. After one year of total vegan I was low on my thyroid exam. I am eating iodized salt in hopes the iodine will boost it back up. Dr. Klaper brought up the iodine issue possibility.
I understand that we can get enough protein from plant sources but, what I don't understand is the comparison to other vegetarian animals and there large muscles. They have enzymes that can breakdown things that humans can't. Their whole metabolism of food is different which results in large muscles. Do we really know if humans can breakdown all plant based proteins like those other species? Including protein in green vegetables?
it's just an entry point. proves plants have tons of protein. doesn't prove per se that we can digest it, but that's where t he rest of the data comes in
Chaya Adler: Our metabolism is made for the digestion of starches. That enzyme is called amylase and other primates have them as well but in less quantaties since they eat primarily leaves and fruit, but humans are meant to eat lots of starch. So get the bulk of your calories from quinoa, barley, rye, oats, wheat, corn, millet, beans, lentils, couscous, rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes and pasta. Go for the whole grain types of these foods, not the white ones. And of course eat vegetables, fruits, berries and some nuts and seeds. There is your optimal diet for humans.
Actually , the enzymes in the herbivore are from microbes in their stomach . Humans (vegan or not )too, use gut bacteria to break down protein from plants and those good bacteria are fed by plants from our diet of course. Our physiology actually suits better to herbivore diet rather than omnivore diet .ua-cam.com/video/sXj76A9hI-o/v-deo.html . In another video of Dr. Neal, he had mentioned that we can get all types of amino acid ,essential or not ,from plants, and very easily! ( facebook.com/PBN.Health/videos/765583616962557/UzpfSTE2OTg4MDQ0NDI6MTAyMDU2OTIwMjg0OTU1MDc/ ). There are so much healthy vegan out there and live very long. ua-cam.com/video/KarE7tsVAW4/v-deo.html This summed up that we don't need to worry going vegan. About the herbivores that have large muscles, I am not sure what do you mean .If you are talking about farm animals , they are bred to grow extra large by selective breeding , it brings many complications to them when, for example their heart and lungs cannot keep up with their muscle growth , their limbs are lame or inflame due to the unnatural weight on them. They are literally bred for human to eat, born to be killed, nothing natural about it.
I train and run and don't feel good unless I get at least 150 grams of protein in. I need 2500 calories to maintain my weight. I went vegan and every protein source came with a bunch of fibre, carbs or fat so I felt bloated and had a calorie surplus. Plus I kept feeling hungry. Once I added eggs, fish and steak back in, no longer needed these giant bowls of plants to get my 150 grams in.
Really considering going vegan, I have actually tried it for roughly a month and to be honest did not really see any heavy depletion in muscle retention and I actually had less gym days. Curious how it can be beneficial long term. This was very insightful though 👍🙂. Anyone with a similar experience but long term?
Yeah, was vegan for about a year and lifting regularly. It was good the first few months or so. It didn't work for me in the long run. I experienced: - joint pain for the first time in my life - more fatigue (had to cut down to from 4-5 times a week in the gym to 3 times a week to even manage, and even that felt like too much), - no progress in my weights, lost some muscle mass in my shoulders and arms, went from a flat stomach to having an ugly pouch. - started seeing wrinkles, dry hair At first I thought it was me aging considering I'm over thirty. But then I started eating meat again and my aches and fatigue disappeared. My hair and skin bounced back. So I mean go for it if it works for you... but be mindful about it.
@@mewzoey No. It attracts every disease. Veganism is next to the unhealthiest diet on earth, level pegging with the sugary junk food diet. At least the latter tasted better.
1:25 made me think of Patrick Baboumian‘s saying in Game Changers.. when someone asked him how he could be strong as a bull without eating meet he asked the person if he ever saw a bull eating meat
Pateick eats shit tons of supplements. Have you seen a full day of eating of his? He drink a bunch of protein shakes (made with pea protein)... in which he adds BCAA and other amino acids to fix the incomplete protein profile of the pea protein. He might as well eat animal protein at that point.
Be Red Why don't you eat grass and let's see how strong you become. The bull's digestive system actually convert the indigestible grass fibers into fat. It is done by the bacteria in the bull's gut. Then the bacteria die. In short, the bull get it's protein for muscle building from the bacteria and get it's energy from the fat fermented by the bacteria out of the grass.
Broccoli is a good source of protein per calorie, but you'd need to eat huge amounts of it to meet your daily protein requirement,” May says. According to the USDA, the recommended daily intake of protein is 50 grams per day for a 2,000-calorie diet. That's about 20 cups of broccoli.
The topic here is the Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS), not just the mere amount of protein intake. You need a combination of different vegan sources to get the right level of aminoacids.
I'm vegan, and once had a vegan friend who went to the doctor, and they told her she was getting too much protein and needed to lay off the steak, lol.
Some math: 2000 kcal. 200g Broccoli == 68 kcal. 2000 kcal == 5,8 kg Broccoli. You can do the lentil math...There is a reason why many more muscular athletes have more than one plant based protein shake per day.
You recommend nutritional yeast and I love it since the 70ies, but I was warned, that I need to stop using it, if I wont to be freed of a yeast-infection under my toe-nails. Do you know of any study? What reasons do you have to recommand WHAT?
Roofhack there are famous and successful athletes who’ve won on a vegan diet. That’s a pretty good example I’d say. If your a critic then it’s important to be a critic of ones own criticism . To say there delusional means you know a lot more about nutrition.JMP
@@carpenterAF-dz2zq "That's a pretty good example I'd say." You do realise you didn't give an example right? All you did was gave a (false) statement that you assumed was right. Name me one vegan athlete that was vegan during their prime of winning.
@@Roofhack Hey r***** I'm sorry you didn't have a chance to be educated pass 8th grade. The only carnivores on this Earth are reptiles ,canines, some birds and felines. We have the mental capacity to eat a very healthy diet which you are totally oblivious to since you lack an education.
@@limahorni3241 So fish and whales cannot be carnivore? You are also missing out on a huge number of species. I think you are clearly the one missing out on mental capacity, LOL. Plant-based foods were mostly a supplement for real food in the human diet, real food being meat. So when you couldn't get a kill on an animal, or when the fruit was ripe, you used it, but humanity would always prefer meat. And guess what? Many other carnivores do the same thing. If they couldn't get access to meat they would use eatable plants. Again, name me one athlete at their PRIME as a vegan. You cannot name one because there are none.

Agree with the Vitamin D. I think that's why we all get sick during the winter, because we're not getting enough Vit D. Whenever a member of our family starts to get a sore throat or get sick, we take Vitamin D for a couple days. It keeps us from getting sick! It works over and over again.
Liza Wade You sound like a sensible person and what you are doing might be the right thing. But I have this nagging doubt about synthetic vitamin D - Cholecalciferol as it is also used as a "Rat Poison." Better try to get natural vitamin D sun-light based.
Tempeh contains B12. So do shiitake mushrooms and nutritional yeast. Mushrooms are high in vitamin D. I find it quite funny that some people whose diet is basically meat, preserved meats that contain nitrates, white wheat flour, salt, butter, sugar, highly refined oils and a cocktail of fillers, emulsifiers and colourings spend time posting on UA-cam clips how terribly concerned they are that vegans might not be getting the nutrients they need due to a restricted diet.
According on alot of people i met, I should be dead 100 times from proteine deficiency if they were right... I love being a living example of their wrongness about that saying ''Hi'' every morning with a smile. That's my reward. xD
@The Answer Theirs plenty of amino acids in every plant foods... fiber is very important its the food for your healthy gut bacteria (prebiotic) and helps prevent heart disease and lots of cancers. the only vitamin we don't get is b12 and farm animals don't get it either its supplemented to them...we would get it in a natural environment from water and other sources.

Dr Neal Barnard is always interesting to listen to! Just a friendly video production tip: learn and follow the 180° Rule (keep all cameras on one side of the action), it makes the video less jarring easier to watch.
Why exactly does that happen, and what does it mean? Because I eat beans and I happen to eat fruit afterwards, but I never knew this. I just liked the fruit as a dessert because it was cold and felt good to eat after hot beans.
I have no idea where vegans can get our protein, but having been on a vegan diet for the last 5 months and losing 84 lbs of fat while gaining 9 lbs of muscle, I think legumes, vegetables, whole grains, and fruits must provide enough of it. Especially since I haven't even had to work out to add that muscle.🤔
Study's have shown that for body building anything over .8 grams per kg of body weight is waisted. And almost everyone goes off total weight and not muscle weight. You don't need to feed your fat protein.
@@ksitigarbha9787 eating that amount of lentils is rather useless. it equates to about 1Kg cooked. Lentils are among the most satiating food there is. Useless and painful.
I am not vegan, not planning to become one either, but I am trying to incorporate vegetarian days into my week to significantly reduce the amount of meat I eat. Having a lot of protein is important for someone like me who exercises a lot.
It isn't the amount that is a problem. Its the quality of the protein. Eggs are far better source of protein than something and far more anabolic. Not all protein are created equal and they have different properties to them as well.
All protein is NOT the same and thats basic nutricion, plant based food does not provide all the amino acids that you need and our body does not produce them. Explain to me how do you obtain all the 20 essential amino acids ONLY from vegetable plants... I wait for you.
Great information. Dr Barnard is very knowledgeable. Gorillas and horses are jacked but so are lions and Tigers . It would be great to hear a respectful debate between Dr Barnard and Dr Paul Saladino . Thanks for the interview.
That's the point where we have to discuss the similarities between human biology and the biological structures of these animals. We are more closer genetically and biologically to primates (not a gorilla, but just an example) than a tiger or a wild cat.
Im reAlly interested in the vit d3 and vit D2...I had read that the vit d3 is actually what is most important for the body but any plant based supplement or fortified food actually used vit d2 so does this mean that we are still missing out ?

I am currently a Pescetarian and I'm thinking of transitioning to become totally Vegan hopefully in the near future. But I cannot tell or judge that what Dr. Neal Barnard says is valid until I try this by myself.
It's interesting the way he says 'cows don't make calcium'. Of course they don't. It's an element. No one can make it. But they absorb and deliver it. To use that to say that milk is useless is I think a questionable method
he never said cows milk is useless, he did say that its not the best source for calcium..humans should never consume cows milk or any other animal milk..cows milk is for baby cows, not humans...humans are the only animal that consumes milk after it is weaned, and its from a different species..its a very unhealthy thing..
You are being deliberately deceptive while accusing Dr. Barnard of being deceptive. Dr. Barnard *did not say* that cow's milk is useless. He's giving advice on how vegans can get enough calcium, therefore he will not be recommending dairy. He told how plants (like cows) absorb calcium from the soil because many people think we must use dairy to get calcium. He also said that the calcium in greens is more bio-available than the calcium in dairy. If you want pro-omnivore information, you won't find it from a channel dedicated to advice about the vegan diet.
There is no such thing as a "protein deficiency" in someone unless they are under poverty or conditions where they cannot get enough total food to eat. But in people who aren't lacking for food, none of these people have a deficiency in any amino acid. There were studies in the past where a specific essential amino acid was deliberately withheld from a subject's diet by a very special (unusual diet) and the subject showed illness within days. If any Vegan were not getting any essential amino acid, they'd know it within a short period of time. We'd have Vegans lining our Emergency Departments or doctors offices with illness. It ain't happening. Where are these supposed amino acid deficient vegans or vegetarians? I honestly cannot find any.
My experience is that you don't really need protein as long as you eat whole veggies. I get about 20 grams of protein a day. But that's all you need, just like a horse or cow. I have bipolar disorder and lost 30 kgs last year and have 20 kgs more to lose due to rapid weight gain on the medicine, so I'm doing this no rice stir-fry diet I invented and it's working pretty good. For exercise I just lift dumbbells like 2 minutes per day and that's good enough.
You do need protein, you just survive on the little you get. You can survive in all sorts of shitty situations, but you can do a lot better than just surviving. If you informed yourself what vegetables you have to eat to get a lot of protein and all of the ammino acids you need and started lifting up to a certain volume instead of a given time, you wouldn't just survive, but make gains.
I have been vegan for more than a year and been eating sprouted beans and lentils however the strength and stamina and mainly muscle mass is not quite the same and I have lost a loooooooot of weight and vigor. I have been told lentils are not complete protein, would you agree? What do you recommend for strength?
There is no such thing. You can find all aminoacids in plants. But you have to mix species to get the right combination of those you can't produce, unlike animal protein, that usually have them all. Getting protein from animals is obviously easier, but you can get enough of it from plants.
@@PatrickEvans-x1v All living beings die a natural death, including humans. Animals can live in its own habitat, and not suffer in crammed slaughter homes all their lives.
@@PatrickEvans-x1v Thank you so very much for considering to be a vegan and thinking of an alternative to stop animal cruelty, far much better than slaughter homes and crammed places. However I still think there is no such thing as ethical slaughter, when we have so many other wonderful and healthy plant based diets. I am also against silk farming, Oyster farming for pearls and animal testing, but that is me.
@@hayavadhanarao1560 I was a vegan for 2 years.i stopped because it made me sick and I had to go to the hospital. When I introduced fish , eggs and chicken to my diet I started feeling better. In my opinion plant based diet is not for everyone.
I'm more or less on Dr. Barnard's side on this issue. However on the plant based protein point, he used the 2000 calorie per day example. He says 2000 calories worth of broccoli or lentils will give you more than enough protein. Great! The problem is, you would have to eat 64 cups of broccoli (or 8.5 cups of lentils) in a day to get those calories and protein. So the question is, if a person eats a reasonable amount of broccoli (or lentils, or any combination of plant based foods), will he be able to get sufficient protein? I think yes, probably so. But his analogy is not exactly sound, in my opinion.
@Stephen Armour Stephen, try this: You are wrong. Eating too much of anything that is supplementing your diet is bad for you as plants are poisonous. Why do vegans eat poison? It makes no sense to me, vegans must all be stupid because they are are eating plant poison.
Sorry to break it for you, vegans, but the omega 3 found in chia seeds is ALA and needs to be converted before use. Conversion is less than 10% for both EPA and DHA. You are not informed enough to make such a serious commitment and are risking your health. Your diet can work if you know your shit, pay attention to the absorption differences depending on the source. Keep in mind, that if you have to eat TOO MUCH of some stuff to meet the RDA, you are most likely overdosing on some other shit. That's why it's hard and most of the vegans are fucking up their health.
@@METALLOVER364 Thank you for your concern but vegans are (already) doing better than any other diets without such optimizations. It's still true that EPA/DHA supplements can help.
@@goku445 oh yeah, show me some actual study that proves that. Facts are your food is inferior nutrition wise, toxic and doesn't contain essentials found in meat. You are sacrificing your health, so a food of a healthy person survives, that's just silly.
The "what your body needs" number is extremely low. It's basically what's needed for survival. Not what's needed for optimal performance (muscle growth, maintaining muscle on a diet, etc.) He only mentions that shortly, but individual vegetables DON'T have all of the ammino acids you need. So you have to eat a variety. And bioavailablity is also lower. So yeah, you can totally get the protein you need, but you have to think about it a little bit and inform yourself.
Herbivore animals, like cows, have different digestive systems and enzymes to humans, and are able to break down the phytic acid in certain vegetation and nuts, therefore making them more bio available
Really good info for people starting their dive into vegan nutrition. People might also want to know that if they want a vegan Vit. D, they need to get Vit. D-2 (ergocalciferol) and not the more ubiquitous Vit. D3. 9:38 - vegan school lunches: assuming you have by now done that show, can you please post the link to it up above? Thanks.
i was a vegan for years always in pain and depression ,started meat diet and water for last 3 years never felt and look so good in my life.im 60.i feel 16 again im ripped with musle.i look 40
Sir I have a question for you You said 2000 calories of broccoli gives us enough protien if we only ate broccoli for the day, but 100 gms of broccoli only has 34 calories so we will have to consume around 6-7 kgs of broccoli in a day, that is a little to much isn't it? how do we overcome that ?@physians committee
@John Smith Thank you John for taking out the time to reply to my note, Highly appreciated. I have just few more questions I believe you are a vegan!! don't you have to eat large quantities of food to meet your protien intake because I think the protien density is clearly low in plant based diet when compared to meat & One last query :do you gym ?
Avin Singh I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who picked that up Avin. I know someone already replied to you but I think you inadvertently made a good point which is that what this doctor said was very misleading. If you take at face value what he says, which is that you can get all the protein you need from vegetables, broccoli in this case, then you would be completely mislead and potentially even put your health at risk. But he doesn’t do this as the other replied as a “silly example” but as a clear obfuscation of the reality.
D C he also said you can get all your protein needs from eating broccoli. Which is at the very minimum misleading and at the worst, seriously bad health advice. If he’s going to offer health advice he shouldn’t make glib comments.
EXACTLY! If this is such a completed diet then why are they taking supplements? Why are they eating seaweed and algae as if humans have always been eating the stuff since forever? Why are they eating things from other continents that their ancestors didn't eat 100, 50 even 35 years ago? (Like Africans and Americans eating chia seeds?!) The ignorance is soo bliss though
Protein needs according to swiss health authorities: ca. 0,8g/kg body weight per day so let's say 65kg bodyweight = 52g protein per day you would have to consume in the order of 52g protein = 1,7kg spinache 52g protein = 7,4kg lettuce 52g protein = 0,8kg peas 52g protein = 0,43kg soy beans 52g protein = 0,57kg chick peas 52g protein = 0,190 Lentilles 52g protein = 0,29kg beyond meat = 3 patties 52g protein = 7 eggs = 420g eggs 52g protein = 0,28kg chicken thigh 52g protein = 0,25kg ground beef 52g protein = 0,35kg bacon 52g protein = 0,26kg salmon yeah and you might wanna correct for the pdcaas
Yea he is wrong on that numbers however. You do not need to eat that much protein. You need to calculate lean body mass and multiply it with .8g . That is the amount of protein you need to eat to build muscles.
On the subject of proteins, can you interview an allergist about the risks for allergy-prone adults of switching to a vegan diet? Soy is on the list of top allergens in North America and sesame is on the list in Europe and pea-based meat substitutes might be a future cause of allergies.
That is the dumbest fucking argument for a human diet ever. "Hey look at all these big animals with completely different guts and digestive systems than humans, we should eat like them".

Love Dr. Barnard. Amazing man with passion, intelligence, and big heart.
A very good and simple explanation for being vegan
Removed a lot of doubts on getting enough protein from a vegan diet
LOVE Dr. Barnard! He treats everyone with respect, and explains things very simply, and clearly. FYI: kombucha and nutritional yeast both have plenty of B12. I drink kombucha weekly and use nutritional yeast several times a week - I make a lot of raw vegan recipes - and my blood work showed zero
deficiencies. 💚
I always hear that vegans should not mess around with b12 and just supplement with it. If you do blood tests and it shows you have sufficient b12 I guess you’re good but I even heard from “nutrition made simple” that plant sources of b12 are not necessarily absorbed and used by the body. The safest way is to supplement with b12
Also if I’m not mistaken Dr. Barnard also recommends supplementing with b12.
My mom raised me healthy by offering (sometimes forcing me to eat) variety of food (meat included), local and in season and in moderation. I truly believe her system and am a living proof. However I realize how polluted and damaging some of farming processes are as well compared to 20,30 years ago. A I found this video provides some helpful insights.

Meat is poison!
Thank you, it's a clear guide of what to eat without the hype and a short half page of notes to get seriously on with it. I am already diagnosed with low b12 and that was when I was eating meat.
@Miles Doyle WTF
Because the average person doesn't eat enough meat in the first place. So that's hardly a measure.
@jasmyne Typing it out in capslock won't make it true. Humans cannot absorb usable B12 from sea vegetables. You are intentionally misinforming people. Vegans need synthetic B12. Stop it.
I have been a vegetarian (not vegan since i consume dairy) my entire life. Never a single health problem for the last 45 years of my life. I don't even get a cold, cough or fever:) My whole family, including relatives and many friends have always been vegetarians. My dad is 75 and in tip-top shape (infact looks like he is 40year old, since he has been doing regular yoga and intense weight training for 2-3 hours at home, not even a gym, for the last 40 years). My mom is equally healthy. Grandma lived till 90, not a single health issue (did not even eat egg, in fact hated it).
Our diet only consists of dairy, egg, whole grains, lentils, fruits and vegetables. My cooking only consists of 1 kind of lentil, 1 or 2 kinds of vegetables, maybe 1 fruit and tortilla/rice everyday. No smoothies ever.
Everything Neal Barnard said here is true. We are living proofs. So anyone out there thinking of becoming a vegan or vegetarian, go ahead. you'll be fine. You will live a great healthy life. In fact you will save your body and the planet in the process.

It's just getting old
it really is, I've only been vegan for 3 years, but it's already got to the point where I can't even look at someone who asks about protein, especially if they claim to be health conscious at all. I'm just going to get a bunch of t-shirts with gorillas, and rhinos and elephants on them that say, "Do I LOOK protein deficient?" ... I've seen 'em on amazon, so once my x-mas bills are paid off... next shopping trip is for me.
Raw meat and raw animal fat regenerate the body much more than plant protein. Check out Aajonus Vonderplanitz' Primal Diet books, also humans have eaten meat for 2.5 million years. I don't buy the vegan consensus.
vlt, you are so beyond full of crap it's not even funny. go away troll.

And if we have been missing all the glorious nutrients in chia seeds we would have been wiped out.. get the point i hope 😄)
In India, you could make a complete vegan meal plan with 21 different items giving you 125 g of protein and 2450 calories at just $2.25 a day. If you could spend $3.20 a day, you could add protein powder and boost that to 150 g of protein and 2600 calories.
You will have to cook on your own. No restaurants.
It gets better, you could cut down the rice to give you under 2000 calories but still with 110 g protein without the protein powder at $2.00 per day and 140g with it at $3.00 per day. You could even starve diet at a mere 1400 calories and still get 95g of protein without the protein powder ($1.25 a day) and 120 g of protein with the protein powder ($2.25 a day). Not enough yet?

update?
I understand that we can get enough protein from plant sources but, what I don't understand is the comparison to other vegetarian animals and there large muscles. They have enzymes that can breakdown things that humans can't. Their whole metabolism of food is different which results in large muscles. Do we really know if humans can breakdown all plant based proteins like those other species? Including protein in green vegetables?
Chaya Adler that’s what I was thinking too. I just think it was a bad comparison. He could have just talked about plant based athletes.
it's just an entry point. proves plants have tons of protein. doesn't prove per se that we can digest it, but that's where t
he rest of the data comes in
Plants proteins have poor bio-availability and we can't convert non-protein nitrogen into protein like herbivores can.
Chaya Adler: Our metabolism is made for the digestion of starches. That enzyme is called amylase and other primates have them as well but in less quantaties since they eat primarily leaves and fruit, but humans are meant to eat lots of starch.
So get the bulk of your calories from quinoa, barley, rye, oats, wheat, corn, millet, beans, lentils, couscous, rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes and pasta. Go for the whole grain types of these foods, not the white ones. And of course eat vegetables, fruits, berries and some nuts and seeds. There is your optimal diet for humans.
Actually , the enzymes in the herbivore are from microbes in their stomach . Humans (vegan or not )too, use gut bacteria to break down protein from plants and those good bacteria are fed by plants from our diet of course. Our physiology actually suits better to herbivore diet rather than omnivore diet .ua-cam.com/video/sXj76A9hI-o/v-deo.html .
In another video of Dr. Neal, he had mentioned that we can get all types of amino acid ,essential or not ,from plants, and very easily!
( facebook.com/PBN.Health/videos/765583616962557/UzpfSTE2OTg4MDQ0NDI6MTAyMDU2OTIwMjg0OTU1MDc/ ).
There are so much healthy vegan out there and live very long. ua-cam.com/video/KarE7tsVAW4/v-deo.html This summed up that we don't need to worry going vegan.
About the herbivores that have large muscles, I am not sure what do you mean .If you are talking about farm animals , they are bred to grow extra large by selective breeding , it brings many complications to them when, for example their heart and lungs cannot keep up with their muscle growth , their limbs are lame or inflame due to the unnatural weight on them. They are literally bred for human to eat, born to be killed, nothing natural about it.
I train and run and don't feel good unless I get at least 150 grams of protein in. I need 2500 calories to maintain my weight. I went vegan and every protein source came with a bunch of fibre, carbs or fat so I felt bloated and had a calorie surplus. Plus I kept feeling hungry. Once I added eggs, fish and steak back in, no longer needed these giant bowls of plants to get my 150 grams in.
Thank you so much 🙂

Really considering going vegan, I have actually tried it for roughly a month and to be honest did not really see any heavy depletion in muscle retention and I actually had less gym days. Curious how it can be beneficial long term. This was very insightful though 👍🙂. Anyone with a similar experience but long term?
Im indian we eat majority vegetarian diet. You might try if you wanna. It is sustainable and has wide wide variety.
Yeah, was vegan for about a year and lifting regularly. It was good the first few months or so. It didn't work for me in the long run. I experienced:
- joint pain for the first time in my life
- more fatigue (had to cut down to from 4-5 times a week in the gym to 3 times a week to even manage, and even that felt like too much),
- no progress in my weights, lost some muscle mass in my shoulders and arms, went from a flat stomach to having an ugly pouch.
- started seeing wrinkles, dry hair
At first I thought it was me aging considering I'm over thirty. But then I started eating meat again and my aches and fatigue disappeared. My hair and skin bounced back. So I mean go for it if it works for you... but be mindful about it.

1:25 made me think of Patrick Baboumian‘s saying in Game Changers.. when someone asked him how he could be strong as a bull without eating meet he asked the person if he ever saw a bull eating meat
Pateick eats shit tons of supplements. Have you seen a full day of eating of his? He drink a bunch of protein shakes (made with pea protein)... in which he adds BCAA and other amino acids to fix the incomplete protein profile of the pea protein. He might as well eat animal protein at that point.
Bulls have a completely different digestion system than humans with multiple stomachs. That makes no argument whatsoever.
Be Red Why don't you eat grass and let's see how strong you become. The bull's digestive system actually convert the indigestible grass fibers into fat. It is done by the bacteria in the bull's gut. Then the bacteria die. In short, the bull get it's protein for muscle building from the bacteria and get it's energy from the fat fermented by the bacteria out of the grass.

Broccoli is a good source of protein per calorie, but you'd need to eat huge amounts of it to meet your daily protein requirement,” May says. According to the USDA, the recommended daily intake of protein is 50 grams per day for a 2,000-calorie diet. That's about 20 cups of broccoli.
THANK YOU!!! Neil is also a great musician. "Carbonworks" is his band.
The topic here is the Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS), not just the mere amount of protein intake. You need a combination of different vegan sources to get the right level of aminoacids.
I'm vegan, and once had a vegan friend who went to the doctor, and they told her she was getting too much protein and needed to lay off the steak, lol.

@@limahorni3241 So fish and whales cannot be carnivore? You are also missing out on a huge number of species. I think you are clearly the one missing out on mental capacity, LOL. Plant-based foods were mostly a supplement for real food in the human diet, real food being meat. So when you couldn't get a kill on an animal, or when the fruit was ripe, you used it, but humanity would always prefer meat. And guess what? Many other carnivores do the same thing. If they couldn't get access to meat they would use eatable plants.
Again, name me one athlete at their PRIME as a vegan. You cannot name one because there are none.

Agree with the Vitamin D. I think that's why we all get sick during the winter, because we're not getting enough Vit D. Whenever a member of our family starts to get a sore throat or get sick, we take Vitamin D for a couple days. It keeps us from getting sick! It works over and over again.

Especially since I haven't even had to work out to add that muscle.🤔
1:50 based on my weight I need 90 gm protein. USDA 17 gm per bunch (608gm) means I would need to eat 7 lbs. or 5 cups cooked Lentils WOW!!

I am not vegan, not planning to become one either, but I am trying to incorporate vegetarian days into my week to significantly reduce the amount of meat I eat. Having a lot of protein is important for someone like me who exercises a lot.
No half measures to OPTIMUM health friend.
great video, excellent advice. Thanks!
It isn't the amount that is a problem. Its the quality of the protein. Eggs are far better source of protein than something and far more anabolic. Not all protein are created equal and they have different properties to them as well.
3.40 do I need protein, yesssssssssss. Do we get it yesssssss
And you also get nutrient deficiencies.
All protein is NOT the same and thats basic nutricion, plant based food does not provide all the amino acids that you need and our body does not produce them. Explain to me how do you obtain all the 20 essential amino acids ONLY from vegetable plants... I wait for you.
Great information. Dr Barnard is very knowledgeable. Gorillas and horses are jacked but so are lions and Tigers . It would be great to hear a respectful debate between Dr Barnard and Dr Paul Saladino . Thanks for the interview.
That's the point where we have to discuss the similarities between human biology and the biological structures of these animals. We are more closer genetically and biologically to primates (not a gorilla, but just an example) than a tiger or a wild cat.
Im reAlly interested in the vit d3 and vit D2...I had read that the vit d3 is actually what is most important for the body but any plant based supplement or fortified food actually used vit d2 so does this mean that we are still missing out ?

Yep B-12, my body told me to supplement. At first, I went on Vegan ill-informed because B-12 is absolutely crucial to your health.
We SDA'S have been teaching this for over 100years when we were viewed as fools, good to see the medical community is catching up.
yall eat too much soy and rice though
Always remember to repent of your sins (sin is transgression of YAHUAH’S LAW: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy) And Have Belief On YAHUSHA HAMASHYACH. HE Died and Rose three days later so that you can lbe forgiven of your sins!
HE Loves you! Come to HIM!🙂🙂😃😃😃
I wonder if he is sda. I keep thinking that he is.
I am currently a Pescetarian and I'm thinking of transitioning to become totally Vegan hopefully in the near future. But I cannot tell or judge that what Dr. Neal Barnard says is valid until I try this by myself.
It's interesting the way he says 'cows don't make calcium'. Of course they don't. It's an element. No one can make it. But they absorb and deliver it. To use that to say that milk is useless is I think a questionable method
he never said cows milk is useless, he did say that its not the best source for calcium..humans should never consume cows milk or any other animal milk..cows milk is for baby cows, not humans...humans are the only animal that consumes milk after it is weaned, and its from a different species..its a very unhealthy thing..
You are being deliberately deceptive while accusing Dr. Barnard of being deceptive. Dr. Barnard *did not say* that cow's milk is useless. He's giving advice on how vegans can get enough calcium, therefore he will not be recommending dairy. He told how plants (like cows) absorb calcium from the soil because many people think we must use dairy to get calcium. He also said that the calcium in greens is more bio-available than the calcium in dairy.
If you want pro-omnivore information, you won't find it from a channel dedicated to advice about the vegan diet.
There is no such thing as a "protein deficiency" in someone unless they are under poverty or conditions where they cannot get enough total food to eat. But in people who aren't lacking for food, none of these people have a deficiency in any amino acid. There were studies in the past where a specific essential amino acid was deliberately withheld from a subject's diet by a very special (unusual diet) and the subject showed illness within days. If any Vegan were not getting any essential amino acid, they'd know it within a short period of time. We'd have Vegans lining our Emergency Departments or doctors offices with illness. It ain't happening. Where are these supposed amino acid deficient vegans or vegetarians? I honestly cannot find any.
No such thing as a "protein deficiency" in anyone, even in poor population groups. Part of the myth, from what I've learned. Who knew.
@@pkeggle4085 True. Other deficiencies will make us ill before proteins which we recycle.
My experience is that you don't really need protein as long as you eat whole veggies. I get about 20 grams of protein a day. But that's all you need, just like a horse or cow. I have bipolar disorder and lost 30 kgs last year and have 20 kgs more to lose due to rapid weight gain on the medicine, so I'm doing this no rice stir-fry diet I invented and it's working pretty good. For exercise I just lift dumbbells like 2 minutes per day and that's good enough.
You do need protein, you just survive on the little you get. You can survive in all sorts of shitty situations, but you can do a lot better than just surviving. If you informed yourself what vegetables you have to eat to get a lot of protein and all of the ammino acids you need and started lifting up to a certain volume instead of a given time, you wouldn't just survive, but make gains.
Lmao you are so wrong.
Man really compared himself to a horse or cow
I have been vegan for more than a year and been eating sprouted beans and lentils however the strength and stamina and mainly muscle mass is not quite the same and I have lost a loooooooot of weight and vigor. I have been told lentils are not complete protein, would you agree? What do you recommend for strength?
Let's add this guy on facebook and spam him a million thanks lol
Yes, but they do not say that vegetal proteins miss some of the essential aminoacids, that only exist in animal products
There is no such thing. You can find all aminoacids in plants. But you have to mix species to get the right combination of those you can't produce, unlike animal protein, that usually have them all.
Getting protein from animals is obviously easier, but you can get enough of it from plants.
very well put. this doctor reminds me of Dr. Berg. Both are providing great dietary information around that people need to consider.
Thanks for leading the world to be Vegan, stops so much animal cruelty
Animals would still die.
@@PatrickEvans-x1v All living beings die a natural death, including humans. Animals can live in its own habitat, and not suffer in crammed slaughter homes all their lives.
@@hayavadhanarao1560 what about free range organic chicken ? I swear they are free to roam around
@@PatrickEvans-x1v Thank you so very much for considering to be a vegan and thinking of an alternative to stop animal cruelty, far much better than slaughter homes and crammed places. However I still think there is no such thing as ethical slaughter, when we have so many other wonderful and healthy plant based diets. I am also against silk farming, Oyster farming for pearls and animal testing, but that is me.
@@hayavadhanarao1560 I was a vegan for 2 years.i stopped because it made me sick and I had to go to the hospital. When I introduced fish , eggs and chicken to my diet I started feeling better. In my opinion plant based diet is not for everyone.
I'm more or less on Dr. Barnard's side on this issue. However on the plant based protein point, he used the 2000 calorie per day example. He says 2000 calories worth of broccoli or lentils will give you more than enough protein. Great!
The problem is, you would have to eat 64 cups of broccoli (or 8.5 cups of lentils) in a day to get those calories and protein. So the question is, if a person eats a reasonable amount of broccoli (or lentils, or any combination of plant based foods), will he be able to get sufficient protein? I think yes, probably so. But his analogy is not exactly sound, in my opinion.
@Stephen Armour Stephen, try this: You are wrong. Eating too much of anything that is supplementing your diet is bad for you as plants are poisonous. Why do vegans eat poison? It makes no sense to me, vegans must all be stupid because they are are eating plant poison.
@Stephen Armour Troll! Lol!
I'm getting 100g per day of proteins not even trying on a 2400 calories budget.
Trouble with supplements is that they just build up rather than dissolve and can cause problems for the gut or stomach.
Thank you, great ideas 😊🙏😍🌹
Amazing info!!
How about Omega 3 : Omega 6 relation?
Should I suppliment omega 3 on a vegan diet?
Peter Rabitt thanks a lot for the quick answer.
Add fresh ground flax seed (meal) to your food. Best source of Omegas.
Sorry to break it for you, vegans, but the omega 3 found in chia seeds is ALA and needs to be converted before use. Conversion is less than 10% for both EPA and DHA. You are not informed enough to make such a serious commitment and are risking your health. Your diet can work if you know your shit, pay attention to the absorption differences depending on the source.
Keep in mind, that if you have to eat TOO MUCH of some stuff to meet the RDA, you are most likely overdosing on some other shit. That's why it's hard and most of the vegans are fucking up their health.
@@METALLOVER364 Thank you for your concern but vegans are (already) doing better than any other diets without such optimizations.
It's still true that EPA/DHA supplements can help.
@@goku445 oh yeah, show me some actual study that proves that. Facts are your food is inferior nutrition wise, toxic and doesn't contain essentials found in meat. You are sacrificing your health, so a food of a healthy person survives, that's just silly.
The "what your body needs" number is extremely low. It's basically what's needed for survival. Not what's needed for optimal performance (muscle growth, maintaining muscle on a diet, etc.)
He only mentions that shortly, but individual vegetables DON'T have all of the ammino acids you need. So you have to eat a variety. And bioavailablity is also lower.
So yeah, you can totally get the protein you need, but you have to think about it a little bit and inform yourself.
Herbivore animals, like cows, have different digestive systems and enzymes to humans, and are able to break down the phytic acid in certain vegetation and nuts, therefore making them more bio available
What if you mix meats and dairy products? I call that pure gains!
It's bad idea
No!
Gains is allways good idea.
@Odin Yes god
Admirim Ismaili haha
Really good info for people starting their dive into vegan nutrition. People might also want to know that if they want a vegan Vit. D, they need to get Vit. D-2 (ergocalciferol) and not the more ubiquitous Vit. D3.
9:38 - vegan school lunches: assuming you have by now done that show, can you please post the link to it up above? Thanks.
i was a vegan for years always in pain and depression ,started meat diet and water for last 3 years never felt and look so good in my life.im 60.i feel 16 again im ripped with musle.i look 40
You weren’t vegan…
@@awhrah ok
An eye opener , thank you
Just saw this video and i'm almost subscribing. God darn it, such a professional! =D
What about starchy vegetables? They are not good for diabetes. Is there a list of vegetables to avoid for diabetics?
Amazing !
I love this channel. Its the best.
Sir I have a question for you
You said 2000 calories of broccoli gives us enough protien if we only ate broccoli for the day, but 100 gms of broccoli only has 34 calories so we will have to consume around 6-7 kgs of broccoli in a day, that is a little to much isn't it? how do we overcome that ?@physians committee
@John Smith Thank you John for taking out the time to reply to my note, Highly appreciated. I have just few more questions I believe you are a vegan!! don't you have to eat large quantities of food to meet your protien intake because I think the protien density is clearly low in plant based diet when compared to meat & One last query :do you gym ?
@John Smith that was really very helpful , and I will surely checkout that channel
Avin Singh I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who picked that up Avin. I know someone already replied to you but I think you inadvertently made a good point which is that what this doctor said was very misleading. If you take at face value what he says, which is that you can get all the protein you need from vegetables, broccoli in this case, then you would be completely mislead and potentially even put your health at risk. But he doesn’t do this as the other replied as a “silly example” but as a clear obfuscation of the reality.
@@NCR557 He said combination, vegetables, beans and grains can give you the protein you need.
D C he also said you can get all your protein needs from eating broccoli. Which is at the very minimum misleading and at the worst, seriously bad health advice. If he’s going to offer health advice he shouldn’t make glib comments.
I JUST LOVE OUR VEGAN DOCTORS THEY ARE THE BEST ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Why take a supplement when you can do is eat food
EXACTLY!
If this is such a completed diet then why are they taking supplements?
Why are they eating seaweed and algae as if humans have always been eating the stuff since forever?
Why are they eating things from other continents that their ancestors didn't eat 100, 50 even 35 years ago? (Like Africans and Americans eating chia seeds?!) The ignorance is soo bliss though
Protein needs according to swiss health authorities: ca. 0,8g/kg body weight per day
so let's say 65kg bodyweight = 52g protein per day
you would have to consume in the order of
52g protein = 1,7kg spinache
52g protein = 7,4kg lettuce
52g protein = 0,8kg peas
52g protein = 0,43kg soy beans
52g protein = 0,57kg chick peas
52g protein = 0,190 Lentilles
52g protein = 0,29kg beyond meat = 3 patties
52g protein = 7 eggs = 420g eggs
52g protein = 0,28kg chicken thigh
52g protein = 0,25kg ground beef
52g protein = 0,35kg bacon
52g protein = 0,26kg salmon
yeah and you might wanna correct for the pdcaas
Also those numbers from "health authorities" are usually pretty low. They are good enough to survive, but not optimal to gain or maintain muscle.
That's 65 cups of brocolli
Yea he is wrong on that numbers however. You do not need to eat that much protein. You need to calculate lean body mass and multiply it with .8g . That is the amount of protein you need to eat to build muscles.
On the subject of proteins, can you interview an allergist about the risks for allergy-prone adults of switching to a vegan diet? Soy is on the list of top allergens in North America and sesame is on the list in Europe and pea-based meat substitutes might be a future cause of allergies.
Daniel 1:12 Settled debate long ago.
That is the dumbest fucking argument for a human diet ever.
"Hey look at all these big animals with completely different guts and digestive systems than humans, we should eat like them".
@@RealityGutPunch he’s talking about the Bible verse
Looking young is also the outllook in life no worries not hard up in life taking care of the body and also watching what you put in your mouth exercise stretching deep breathing keep self busy 🇸🇽🇺🇸
Check out "What the Health" & "The Game Changers" on Netflix 👍
DonAngel13 good info eye opener I started watching game changer last night have to finish
Did and became vegan I’m very happy feel better.
Game changers is sooo bad. Propaganda at its worst
Almost everything in those documentaries is either straight up false or misrepresented.
What the health turned me vegan.
