If you're going to have to edit down How Not to Age, then why not just turn it into two books??? Part I and Part II...I'm on board for getting them both as I'm sure most everyone else would be! ❤😁
Thank you so much Dr. Greger for addressing the issue of overdiagnosis, and over-treatment. More people really need to be made aware that seeking sickness to treat is not better than pursuing health via diet and lifestyle
A back yard garden is great for producing fresh fruit and vegetables and hard to locally find products. It is also a way to ensure that they are organic and pesticide free.
@@longevitycoach1573 There is a whole organic production supply chain that would disagree with you. Go to the grocery store and and you will see many aisles of organic products produced without pesticides.
I laughed when you said “bring purple sweet potatoes “! I live in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia (Staunton) and have trouble finding purple sweet potatoes, too… but I did find some at Martins a couple days ago! BTW: We share a birthday (different years)! 😊 Thank you for your videos!
Hope you are feeling better and sad to here you contracted Covid......so far, as far as I know, I've somehow managed to avoid it.....I wear a mask always in public and I avoid crowded venues.......and have been keeping socially distant......also full vaxxed to max! ....anyway, keep up the good work as I enjoy your sharing your knowledge immensely!
I was sorry to hear he contracted the COVID crud too! I also have not suffered it *that I know of*....and avoiding crowded places kind of was instilled in me as a child...I'm 65 and our dad really despised indoor crowded places,, but he DID take us to the community public pool in New Jersey when we were growing up in the summers AND to watch fire-works on 4th of July, of course, outdoors.
Me too! So many people close to me have gotten covid and yet I have not. I live in nyc I went to the ballet we wore masks then went to dinner w 7 other people. I’m the only vegan. They had great plant based options on their menu. All 7 tested positive after one person let us know she had covid. She just happened to be by my side the whole night too. I never tested positive They all lost their sense of taste felt unwell. It lasted within 2.week for each one to get a negative test result We are all vaccinated to the max also. At least the cases weren’t severe. I think a healthy life style is important. All of the people I go to events with are physically active also I know some from the gym but only one other person is WFPB
@@JnTmarie Interesting......although I'm not a hard core vegan, I do my best to eat a LOT of whole food plants, but I will occasionally eat animal protein...mostly baked fish....and I also religiously workout on a consistent basis.....so I do wonder if this type of lifestyle makes you more resistant to COVID or not.....I suppose at some point it will be "put to the test!".....however, also wonder if some of us (like you) might have a natural immunity to it?? Anyway, good talking and keep being safe.....I continue to wear my mask even at the risk of ridicule which, whatever, I really don't care what others think....as some of my close friends question my still wearing a mask....besides NOT wanting to "get it", I also have a 92 year old mother in law who hasn't caught it yet either nor do we want her to "get it"....
Walnuts especially but all nuts Can trigger a cold sore For me because of the high Argenine amino acid. I pop a 500 mg Lysine pill anytime I'm eating a significant amount of nuts. Literally has eliminated cold sores.
Dr. Greger. I'm 63 done bodybuilding in 1970's and restarted 12 months ago but in June 15th this year had a stent. Can I slowly get into it again. I'm a great fan of green smoothies with Kale, Spinach, Blueberries, Yoghurt, Banana, Organic Peanut butter & Stevia.
@razon & espiritualidad You forget to mention his intelligence, & no fat on him , doubt he has to worry about losing weight 🤣Vid Gamechangers great eg of all types of athletes now vegan, just watched Arnold Schwarzenegger vid regretting his mind set on nutrition in past, another healthy strong vegan man💪🏽education evolution will get us all there soon, change ppl health from 1in2 with cancer from carcinogenic dead animals & dairy causing diabetes that over half population live with🥺
I hope your body was not significantly damaged by covid. Sorry you got it. Selfish, I guess. Your brain and heart are one of the few on the planet that I REALLY appreciate being in good enough shape to help me stay alive and well. Take care.
What confuses me is that protein restriction = longevity benefits, yet beans are one of the healthiest foods in the world. Dr Greger has 3 servings a day of beans/lentils/chickpeas etc in his "Daily Dozen", and with the additional 3 servings of whole grains that he recommends, it seems to me that we would get quite a fair amount of protein from eating this way. Am I wrong in this assessment?
@@wishingb5859 Yes, I know. I guess this debate about protein is going to go the same route as with carbs and fat: That it is villified at first, before people recognize the nuance between different types of fat, carbs and protein. It seems to me that the nutrition world is much divided between low carb, low fat etc, but low carb people don't differentiate between simple sugars and complex carbs. And low fat people mix up saturated fatty foods with foods like nuts, seeds and even extra virgin olive oil. Not all carbs are alike, not all fats are alike, and it seems that all proteins aren't alike either.
Mri has saved my life. If it wasn’t for MRIs I wouldn’t be here. I had a cherry aneurysm in my brain that was closed off with a new stent. They went through a small incision in my wrist. found because I was dancing and worried about my balance so I went for an mri. Also, it found my breast cancer which wasn’t discovered on a mammogram. How can you say not to do mris? . Is there anything special I can do to counteract the negative effects of the aspirin I have to take for a while longer because I have this stent? 3 years ago I started WFPB diet based upon your daily dozen and lowered my cholesterol in 2 weeks and kept it down also dr Klaper and Dr Esselstyne Thank you for your books. I don’t eat sugar, no processed foods, once in a while I eat gluten free bread or pasta. No salt and low to no oil. Lots of cruciferous and leafy green veggies Thank you Sell us 2 books please
Now you know what we east coast rural folks who want to eat healthy go through. And if you're in the mountains its worse.. We just watch all the plant based cooking chefs and shake our heads. You have to freeze the pom seeds to have them all year.
Refined sugar also causes inflammation in the body, which is not good for any athletes, not only for recovery, but also for performance. Skip the refined sugar and go with oatmeal or dates or some other high-calorie whole foods. I eat bowls of fruit, PB&B sandwiches, and smoothies to make up all the calories.
@Jasmin The research doesn't really support your statements. Whole fruits and grains do get converted to sugar, but much more slowly than with refined sugar. It's the atomic blast of sugar into your bloodstream, the subsequent blood-sugar spike, and the following insulin-induced low blood sugar that causes the body to release triglycerides that causes the inflammation from refined sugar. That doesn't happen with whole fruits and grains, partly because the fiber slows it down. Eating some walnuts and dates together isn't going to cause trouble according to the research....
@Benson You are absolutely right. Apart from the nutritional content in oatmeal vs sugar, you have the rapid insulin spikes which triggers apetite, stores fat and causes inflammation. Better to sweeten your oats with berries and fruit. Fortunately there are lots of healthy options to have for breakfast if one doesn't favor oats.
@Jasmin I don't believe that is correct, there is a lot of research on sugar specifically... look at all of the fructose research, the refined stuff clearly increases health risk.
what did he meant? only plant based protein and what else? I´m asking about the last question:Protein restriction over calorie restriction for human longevity? Minimize BCAA’s? Can we be too low as to a detriment on WFPB say protein sub 10% of calories?
He's saying 0.8 grams of protein per healthy kilogram of body weight, which is the recommended daily allowance, from plant foods is ideal for longevity. So once you convert your weight in pounds to kilograms (by dividing by 2.2), you'll be able to find the right protein recommendations for you. Steven - Global Volunteer Director

Some of us don't convert K1 to K2. I'm a vegetarian (50 years) and I eat a lot of greens. But I was still getting plaque in my arteries. K2, D3, and magnesium did lower the plaque in my arteries 18% in two years. So some of us need the K2.

Its not that baked they are more nutritious, it's that they get less absorbed by your body. Not sure, chewing them well may be half in between. You can also just grind them with a mortar and pestle rather than mixing/buying them grounded
