1:36:09 Pieces to the puzzle we didn't get to in this podcast
Well they agreed that seed oils are bad. So did Dr. Gundry. Let’s start with that consensus and work together to eliminate them.
Yes he agreed on the seed oils and suggested two tablespoons of sesame oil a day directly after 😂
@@SevGW I don't get what is so great about sesame oil?
@@chrisbrown2211 Tastes 💣 to me on my Korean short ribs
@@SevGW just my opinion but I think there is different levels of danger in regards to seed oils, seed oil straight out of a bottle might be better then seed oil heated and mix with sugar or hfcs
@@eddyyammine9136 But think about how it went from the seed to the bottle! Although, I do think humans have eaten most anything that they could find in Nature which didn't kill them , especially after the mange to control fire!
I was diagnosed with PCOS, Hashimoto's disease, anxiety and panic attacks. My body and mind was in pain everyday of my life…I went vegan to tried and fix these health issues, I was doing Lou Corona’s juicing recipes and it seem like I keep getting worse and worse and not loosing weight either. Finally I came across Sally Norton’s book “Toxic Superfoods” and that changed everything for me. I started carnivore in mid August and I am down 15 pounds, I’m surprised at how much energy I have, I am coping very well with stress which means no anxiety and panic attacks, my glucose levels on my CGM always between 70-81, also I had very stiff joints and that’s also gone. In a very short period of time I am seeing big changes on the carnivore diet that I never saw while just eating vegetables and juicing for 2 years.
Amazing benefits happy to hear stories like this
Sam i have much less anxiety when I eat more animal based food.
Everyone is similar but different,we are still learning.
i did carnivore and keto and i found after 1-2 years that the fat was quietly clogging my receptors leading to a worsening of diabetes t2. also it takes about that long for many people to grow tired of eating only anaimals. at some point your body may give you hints. I would test your insulin and blood sugar after a year. you will feel great for the first 6 months and lose weight and be convinced you found heaven like i did but give it time. and dont allow yourself to go into t2 which is hyper insulinemia and resistance. Things hard to see until it is too late. they say people have IR ten years before they are diagnosed. this is a friendly warning to avoid diabetes at all costs. i am not against meat but the minute you stop you will see why it has problems of it own.
The unhealthy vs healthy user was one of the best takes I’ve ever heard. Since mainstream advocated against red meat, people who ate red meat were usually the kind of people to live an unhealthy lifestyle, while people who ate plant based were more likely to live a healthy lifestyle with exercise etc. but that doesn’t mean red meat is bad/plant based is good. Crazy smart guy. Awesome logic
At least you could respond to my comment that there are 1000s of interventional studies though the Gerson Institute who did a documentary: "Food Matters " wherein they show 1000s of cases of TERMINAL INOPERABLE stage 4 cancer patients who left a meat diet and adopted the Gerson diet and therapy and who recovered and lived another 20 -30 years. How do you discredit that ?
The debate should not be which is healthier , a vegan or meat diet. Both have been proven to be more than adequate to sustain heath and prolong life .
It is a fact that Top athletes like Carl Lewis who won 9 gold metals over 20 years was vegan
Its is fact that the world’s greatest geniuses like Leonardo Davinci , Albert Einstein , Benjamin Franklin and Nikolai Tesla were vegan
It is fact that there are about 79 million vegans in the world .So there is no doubt that it is possible for a human top survive and flourish on a vegan diet.
The question not wither a meat diet is threat to the health of an isolated individual
The much more serious question to get clear on is wither a meat diet will cause catastrophic human suffering .
Here are some more FACTS
1) deforestation : The meat industry clears additional 28 million acres of forest per year
2) pumping aquifers dry : It takes 2500 galloons of water to produce each pound of beef
3) generation of more green house gasses than all forms of transportation put together
4) The average Global temperature has gone up from 13.94C to 14.94C in the last 142 years a 6.9% increase
5) Human activities add 3% to naturally occurring green house gasses. Humans have removed 1/3 of the worlds forests . So by adding 3% and subtracting 33% humans have increased the build up of green house gasses by 36% over what nature was doing .
6) An acre of forest transpires 48,219.6 gallon per day per acre
7) By clearing 1/3 of the earths forest we are causing droughts like these drought IN USA like these : ua-cam.com/video/w3YYH7hQTT8/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/K9hUNufKIKw/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/kYsrGaHX7M4/v-deo.html

"Crazy smart guy. Awesome logic"
Wait. I've been using that logic on anti-vegans for 10 years, when they use logical fallacies (which they usually do).
It's called correlation, and you don't have to be smart to show it. You just have to listen to other peoples' podcasts and mimic their talking points.

also note that almost all monoculture farming is done for either cow feed or biofuel not for human food >if we stopped feeding and eating animals but ate the plants 9/10 of the land used in agriculture could go back to carbon capturing oxygen producing water pumping forests

“ the non-creative mind can spot wrong answers but it takes a creative mind to spot wrong questions.” Dr Jack Kruse
Great quote!
Wow, heck of a quote. I’ve had this thought for years but haven’t been able to clearly articulate it.
That brilliant quote perfectly captures what is wrong with much of nutritional research. As one example, many researchers for decades asked the question what foods raise cholesterol? The more prudent question to have asked would have been is cholesterol the primary cause of heart disease? Just by changing that line of questioning we would have avoided the multi-billion dollar scam that is the statin drug industry.
@@alphacause you misunderstood it mate, asking "is cholesterol the primary cause of heart disease?" this is wrong question to ask, because your genes determine cholesterol biosynthesis, so why would your body want to kill you.
what they should be asking, is what things are causing the derangements in our bodies, answering those things will illuminate a deeper understanding of how our bodies interact with food and our physical environment.
💯
Don't hold your breath on that apology, Paul. He's an ideologue. His religion won't allow it
Just wondering, if they did an actual long term study showing in 50,000 people that meat actually does lower your lifespan and even dr Paul salidino agreed it’s a legitimate study, would you really stop eating meat?
@@theperson3693 just because Paul Saladino says a study is good or not doesnt make it so. Its the fact that his comments about epidemiology are, for the most part, well reflected in basic statistics, and established scientific teaching (for example: correlation can not prove causation), as well as basic logic and epistemology, that the arguments hold weight. Its not up to some authority to say if a study is valid or not, its up to the actual methodology and maths, which is available for anyone to review, if they know how to do it.
There's also the problem that its impossible to properly control for large scale, long term studies like that. We've seen it again and again when things remotely similar are attempted. People misreport their lifestyles, certain factors aren't controlled for, etc. Saladino isnt the only one who's shown concern about healthy/unhealthy user bias. Gordon Guyatt, for one, the man accredited with coining the term 'science based medicine', who is a pescatarian, did a large review of the socalled anti-meat research out there and expressed the same thing, and said that none of the epidemiology actually tells us anything. Too many confouding variales and basic holes in the controls.
That being said, I'd say that if, somehow, a twenty year study of high quality meat eaters who dont smoke and who exercise outside a lot, was extremely well controlled the whole time, etc etc, was done, and the results were clear, without controlling for variables, and looking at absolute risk vs relative, and all that, and the results showed a clear statistical leaning towards the meat being bad, and someone read it for themselves and dismissed it outright, they'd be an idiot. To say that they should stop eating meat, though - no one study can set a precedent. Repeatability is essential in science. But yes, such a study - which does not exist - would be necessary to pay attention to.
@@theperson3693 I am shocked that this Saladin fellow is so high strung and kooky acting in his passion, he needs to calm down. He must be full of adrenaline or maybe he's sick. I mean I eat meat but heck I don't desire to eat it at every single meal. I eat it with vegetables or I'll skip it to have beens with rice or maybe just fruit for lunch. What an emotional desperate dude to behave like this.
@@blacksmithie I believe it, it must be the cortisol. I thought it was fear hormones, adrenaline from the traumatized animals he's been eating causing him to be jittery and nervous.
@Rent Free so be it.
Gotta give props to Doc Fuhrman for maintaining his composure (as did Paul). Takes tremendous courage to come on Paul’s podcast and be challenged in such a direct way! To me this was more of a debate between whether or not epidemiological/observational studies can be trusted. Nonetheless, very thoughtful discussion!
mostly because he is a vegetarian right, they can glue themselves to paintings occasionally haha. But in seriousness, i thought both gave it as good as they got it with Paul being more cordial prior and post debate (ie. talking about snowboarding or whatever...)
aren't epidemiological and observational studies the same
Facts
@@arno7303 one could say the same about those recommending a carnivore diet, that isn’t a strictly vegan or vegetarian phenomenon. Paul was very glued to the idea that long term observational studies hold no merit in determining long term health outcomes.
This was really a debate on what type of study nutrition advice should be based on more than anything.
98th podcast in a row where the guy who avoids animal protein looks like he couldn't do a push up.
He looks like he has sarcopenia and hasn’t look well for years.

And this is a former pro athlete who is active for hours every day.

Wow, Dr. Fuhrman used some fighting words! We await him sending studies to you, Dr. Saladino.
Yes. I’d love to see joel back on w studies for a round 2 albeit a little more “discussing the science” than taking shots. If not at least go thru the studies he sends assuming that fuhrmie follows thru.
Incredibly disrespectful host. He spouted the same nonsense over and over, while the guest showed a much greater medical understanding. Then the host concludes his video essentially telling his audience he won the debate just after the guest leaves the call. Not a friendly debate. He just knows Joel Fuhrman has a much greater following, and having him on his podcast will help him peddle his junk... The first 10 minutes was just a bunch of sponsorships... Very disappointed.
I kinda felt bad for Dr. Fuhrman, he got completely destroyed in this debate
You handled that conversation very respectfully Paul 👍
Saladino is amazing in keeping he cool and facts
@@zaluq Its because hes an alpha male who eats meat
@@brendonbalow6488 lol, Hail the Beef!!!
For sure!
Always a gentleman Paul- Well done!
Reminded me of the Stork scene in The Karate Kid!
Agriculture began only 10 - 12K years ago, which is less than 5% of the 300K years homo sapiens has existed. So for the first 95% of human existence the ONLY foods available for human consumption were animal flesh/organs and WILD forms of fruits and vegetables (which are NOTHING like the fruits and vegetables we have today which were created by humans through selective breeding - Google "teosinte vs. corn" and you'll see what I mean). Humans literally evolved eating animal-based food products, so it seems counter to evolutionary biology that these foods are harmful, while the far more recently available plant-based foods humans invented AFTER the majority of our evolutionary adaptations had already occurred are better for human health - and that's not even to mention the fraudulently labeled "heart healthy" vegetable seed oils which did not exist until humans invented them in the mid-1800s.
The definitive way to settle this is to do a long-term head to head trial of carnivores vs. vegans. I'd be more than happy to sign up for the carnivore group as carnivore has made me more fit at almost age 56 than at anytime since I was in my 20s.
Yessss! Thank you for sharing 🙂
Ancient homo sapians were not eating a meat only diet. Meat was a luxury. Hunting with a spear is an incredibly inefficient means of obtaining calories. Think of the calories burned for the 19/20 failed hunts. They did come across dead animals and eat them for sure. Look at the fecal remains of Paleolithic man for example. They had an average of 90 grams to 120 grams of fiber a day. I eat whole plant based and I don't even get that much a day. The archeological evidence does not support your claims.
You could say the exact same about the animals we eat now. Unless your hunting your own meat, the animals we eat now are genetically different through selective breeding, have higher cholesterol and saturated fat content cause we fatten them up rapidly with GMO corn and soy, are pumped with antibiotics, are put in very unnatural and stressful settings, etc.
At least you could respond to my comment that there are 1000s of interventional studies though the Gerson Institute who did a documentary: "Food Matters " wherein they show 1000s of cases of TERMINAL INOPERABLE stage 4 cancer patients who left a meat diet and adopted the Gerson diet and therapy and who recovered and lived another 20 -30 years.

"fruits and vegetables (which are NOTHING like the fruits and vegetables we have today which were created by humans through selective breeding"
So what. That's an unfortunate reason for ditching your rightful diet of fruit. No one is in bad health because of fruit. I've eaten 100,000 pieces of fruit on my 27 year high-fruit diet, and I'm doing well at age 53.
Legend has it Paul is still waiting for Joel to send him those studies.
The point is there are no studies so carnivore is still a social experiment. The studies are yet to come. Its only recent. There are studies for plant based

And CRP was always < 0.3 since I'm a thin and muscular guy. This guy believes that "dietary cholesterol and saturated fat clogs your arteries y0"
@@Re3iRtH yes, the argument of pure fantasy and fiction.
Hahaha! That what I was thinking. It made no sense what so ever! What do I know I just put people to sleep...
I probably would have respected Joel more if
• he had actual studies he could pull-up and share
• didn’t resort to insults when respectfully challenged
• showed a greater understanding of different types of studies, including their strengths and weaknesses. Instead, he kept stating associational studies as facts.
• and didn’t have a “I’m right and you’re wrong” type of attitude the whole time.
On the other hand, Paul did an amazing job debating. He was prepared, respectful, and was not intimidated by all his “credentials”.
These types of people always respond with insults
Joel not only resorted to insults when being respectfully challenged, he straight out attacked Paul right from the beginning.
Fuhrman based a lot of his conclusions that he shared in his book on the famous China study. However, data was cherry picked in the published paper. Also, the blue zones were cherry picked and also the evidenced gathered in some of them, as Saladino pointed out, was wrong to begin with. For example, in the Greek islands, cheese, goat and pork are frequently consumed.
Well said M_Bergeron
@@regalianpeaches1 yep, I was chocked
Watching this video increased my inflammatory markers and raised my blood pressure 10 points.
Lol! That's what I was going to say :)
Summary;
Debate started: Joel “all meat is harmful”
End of debate; Joel “small amount of meat helps”
He never really admitted to that in the end, only that some vegans will have to supplement. And Paul jumped in there and said, "with meat!" And he's totally right. This Joel is fairly sharp, just full of nonsense.
1:13:55 !
Clearly stated. A little bit lol
I do agree with your comments about Joel he is a sharp guy just nonsense haha. I think he still prefers none though you are right and taking the supplements
Make sense when you are really read the studies yourself and don’t follow blindly the advice if some paleo believer
@@happyhealthylife4ever what's that?
It's interesting that Joel starts by saying he is close-minded on the issue; that is one of the worst mindsets you could have.
If u have an open mind you might learn something. I have not met an open minded vegan yet. They do not want their minds changed. It's religious. Religious is fine, just don't pretend it's science.
He understands it all even with supplementing with meat. His point has been about too much meat not being safe like in the China study expresses more than 10-20 percent meat in diet grows cancer and below that it stops.
And the funniest part is he implored Paul at one point, “if you could just leave your biases and see the facts,” meanwhile rigidly maintaining and defending his own biases… 😂
Hi! I want to say I was plant based ( as I started calling it as I don’t like labels) for over 20 years… but always have loved learning and growing through that process… I read and listen to Drs. From all sides and have always kept an open mind ( I have been married to a non-plant based man for nearly 13 years, together 15… and I respect his freedom as he does mine…), with that I used to be a strict vegan but decided through education it wasn’t what I wanted (the label). I am currently learning more and also incorporating animal products (organic, grass fed) somewhat into my life… I always like to think of myself as open to learning and new ideas…
But I do agree on the point that most of the people who consider themselves labeled as a vegan may not be so open…
In college my housemates didn’t want to turn up the heat, and we lived in Syracuse…. It was cold… so I wore my grandmother’s fur cape… at the same time I considered myself a vegan and lived with very strict vegan housemates who were upset at me… I said I was cold and it was vintage…
Just letting you know some of us who once decidedly were labeled were actually open minded…
I think of myself as on a journey, a life-learner…
Sorry for the long reply 🙂
Yeah just like you'd be open minded about climate change debating a climate change denier.
I need more of this. These are the debates that keep the communication going and despite which camp your in, everyone talking/listening only wants to help improve their health and the health of those they care about
1) There are plenty of interventive studies showing that meat eaters with chronic diseases fully recover when whey adopt a vegan diet . See the Gerson institutes ‘DVD “ FOOD MATTERS “ documentary (netflix or your local library )
2) The reason why there are no interventive studies showing that a healthy vegan will develop disease if the eat a meat diet is because a) the vegans are unwilling to participate b) yiu can not have an interventive study unless there is a disease condition . A vegan on a whole food diet (no refined foods ) does not any disease
3) Paul said we need meat for our brain : ua-cam.com/video/kVlSX_EF8wE/v-deo.html Why HISTORY's Greatest Minds Didn't EAT MEAT Socraties , Leonardo DaVinci , Albert Einstein , Nikolai Telsa , Buddha , Rosa Parks, Bengamin Franklin , Sir Issaac Newton ,Thomas Edison , Susan B Anthony , Gandhi,
(note: I interject here that DHA is lost in sex .It is in semen . Our brain needs DHA to be healthy so don’t over do the sex )
4) Paul said we need meat for our bodies . Meat was out lawed in Japan from 675-1875 AD. During that time a legendary vegan warrior , THE SAMURAI, gained prominence . Today we have the extremely fats , strong , tough Shaolin Monks who are all pure vegan . I have ben vegan 40 years .In 1982 I became lacto vegan .In 1995 I became pure vegan. At that time I was almost 35 and could barely run my daily 4 miles without wanting to walk . In 1995 I quit the milk an cottage cheese and got my protein from collards , kale , turnip greens , cauliflower and bok choy and stopped eating bulgar and wheat flakes and started sprouting whole grain and soon I could run 10 miles with no fatigue .Today at age 62 I still run 7 miles 4-5 times a week and work 60 hours a week on my small farm( see my youtube videos .
5) There is another group of vegans worth studying :THE RADHA SOAMI SAT SANG BEAS , who began in 1856 and today number over 4 million . Im a me member and I can tell you they are very healthy and strong and do live to a ripe old age .Here’s a video ua-cam.com/video/PtlKdbAXZmw/v-deo.html
6) What Paul said about getting Phytonutrients from grass fed beef is not practical . Already 38% of the earth’s habitable land mass is used for cow pasture and to grow cow feed . If all our cows were pasture fed it would require 95% of earths habitable surface . The grass fed rule is 1 cow per minimum 1-3 acres (conventional) 1 cow per minimum 2.5-6 acres (regenerative ) depending on rain fall and type of pasture. All of earths forests would have to be cut down.
7) But if we all got our nutrition including phytonutirents from plants 11% of earths habitable land mass would be enough to feed us all
8) The meat industry clears 28 million acres of forest each year for cow pasture and feed growing , and generates more green house gases than all transportation combined .The money to do all this comes from meat we buy and from no where else . the only way to shut it down is to stop buying meat
9) If you calculate the amount of water it takes to grow a cows food and the 21 gallons per day a cow drinks it takes 2500 gallons of water per pound of beef produced .This water is pumped out of aquifers that tool 1000 year to build up and now these are running dry . UA-cam search “Mega droughts 2021” farms in the western USA are already cutting production by 1/3 due to rivers and aquifers drying up .
10) I posted these in the main section but Paul deleted them….Don’t we need a heathy environment to be healthy ?
Lots of bold claims from Dr Joel but zero evidences to support.
Pure rhetoric
I bet if you bet joel vs saladino to help somebody with cancer Joel would reverse it while saladino would have someone in the hospital.

2 things: 1) I knew it was gonna be good when you said "is that why you've said that I should be locked in prison?" And 2) It would also be interesting to speak with some of the more well known "ethical vegans". Loads of people go vegan for a variety of reasons and unfortunately some of those people don't give a shit about health. On that, also interested in a debate on environmental implications of each diet. Super interesting debate, and thanks for the continued education!!
Have you found anything interesting regarding the environment and ethics in the past few months? :)
I want Dr Furhman to provide me with a healthy plant diet based on what is only seasonally and geographically available to people in the seasonal North. Excluding all shipped foods in the grocery store.
Fuhrman says the benefit of modern civilization is that we're not limited to what is only available in our region. I tend to agree with him there...I don't really buy the regional argument yet. But, I live in Texas so cattle is pretty native anyway haha
@@isaacaguilera3385 the thing is, the foundation of Dr Paul's focus is on what do humans eat where and when. Local and seasonal are fundamental to human health. Otherwise, if there's ever a breakdown in the food supply chain, those following Dr Furhman's example will starve come winter time.
I always use the MULTIPLE THOUSAND YEAR ICE AGES that our species survived as my closing argument with vegan morons regarding carbs and fruits. As in, how did my Northern European ancestors survive for generations without seeing fruits hardly ever during the glacial periods? Answer: they didn't eat fruits and low veg and here we are thousands of years later 😉
@@isaacaguilera3385 that is a benefit.. but that’s a main driver of climate change. Transportation is the #1 category for emissions. So I t’s not sustainable.. we just live in a good time until it won’t be possible anymore because we’ve destroyed the earth.

I think Weston A. Price’s work tells it all.
Agreed.
I would have loved you to mention Weston Price's work traveling to 14 countries in the 1930's, studying cultures that did not have exposure to "foods of modern commerce". His book, "Nutrition and Physical Degeneration" complete with amazing data and photographs shows that all the cultures that were healthiest (He was a researcher and had specific ways to determine levels of health) all used predominately animal food sources. I would really like to hear Joel Fuhrman's opinion after reading this book
Yes!
Another book worth mentioning is Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon. Its a cook book based on the principles of Dr. Weston Price.
Weston A Price Foundation has the best dietary principles. They don't demonize any food group. Instead they explain how each food group can become unhealthy when processed and refined. For example, for vegetables they explain how many cultures fermented and cooked their vegetables and ate them with lots of healthy saturated fats. They also say people shouldn't eat grains unless they have been soaked or fermented before cooking.
I think many of these people are missing the point. Paul puts too much emphasis on demonizing vegetables like kale but the main problem in developed countries is that they are eating tons of processed food with artificial ingredients. Foods loaded with processed sugar, hydrogenated oils, artificial chemicals, MSG, etc.
Well, respect to both of you for being big enough to have this talk like adults.
Most carnivores have tried the vegan diet first, it doesn’t happen the other way around.
Haha good point a lot less carnivores going to vegan cuz when the found something that works they stick to it.
There are plenty of low-carb, keto, high-meat diet folks converting to plant-based dieting.
You think most people are born vegan??? 😂😂😂 fucking hell

This kind of felt like an ambush...Joel was on vacation, so I'm not surprised he didn't have all his evidence. Also, you tended to interrupt him quite often but were all over him about interrupting. Thanks for having this discussion.
I agree. Paul kept telling Joel to stop interrupting him but Paul did nothing but interrupt.
Agree
Yes!! Paul was the one interrupting and in my opinion he was rude to Dr. Fuhrman
Paul, you asked who goes to a bbq and eats only steak. I do! At 42 I am in the best shape of my life and absolutely fucking ripped. My nutrition is based around meat, organs, and bone broth. Thanks for your hard work, you are saving lives.

I couldnt get past the 35 minute mark. All these "friendly debates" do is piss me off having to listen to such non sense from these vegan quacks. They are so sure of themselves. He should have the warning slapped on him. Not paul
Look a fact is a fact .
The debate should not be which is healthier , a vegan or meat diet. Both have been proven to be more than adequate to sustain heath and prolong life .
It is a fact that Top athletes like Carl Lewis who won 9 gold metals over 20 years was vegan
Its is fact that the world’s greatest geniuses like Leonardo Davinci , Albert Einstein , Benjamin Franklin and Nikolai Tesla were vegan
It is fact that there are about 79 million vegans in the world .So there is no doubt that it is possible for a human top survive and flourish on a vegan diet.
The question not wither a meat diet is threat to the health of an isolated individual
The much more serious question to get clear on is wither a meat diet will cause catastrophic human suffering .
Here are some more FACTS
1) deforestation : The meat industry clears additional 28 million acres of forest per year
2) pumping aquifers dry : It takes 2500 galloons of water to produce each pound of beef
3) generation of more green house gasses than all forms of transportation put together
4) The average Global temperature has gone up from 13.94C to 14.94C in the last 142 years a 6.9% increase
5) Human activities add 3% to naturally occurring green house gasses. Humans have removed 1/3 of the worlds forests . So by adding 3% and subtracting 33% humans have increased the build up of green house gasses by 36% over what nature was doing .
6) An acre of forest transpires 48,219.6 gallon per day per acre
7) By clearing 1/3 of the earths forest we are causing droughts like these drought IN USA like these : ua-cam.com/video/w3YYH7hQTT8/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/K9hUNufKIKw/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/kYsrGaHX7M4/v-deo.html

8) 1 billion people are already going hungry and can not get clean water .5000 die every year from drinking dirty water
9) There is another group of vegans worth studying :THE RADHA SOAMI SAT SANG BEAS , who began in 1856 and today number over 4 million . Im a me member and I can tell you they are very healthy and strong and do live to a ripe old age .Here’s a video ua-cam.com/video/PtlKdbAXZmw/v-deo.html
10) What Paul said about getting Phytonutrients from grass fed beef is not practical . Already 38% of the earth’s habitable land mass is used for cow pasture and to grow cow feed . If all our cows were pasture fed it would require 95% of earths habitable surface . The grass fed rule is 1 cow per minimum 1-3 acres (conventional) 1 cow per minimum 2.5-6 acres (regenerative ) depending on rain fall and type of pasture. All of earths forests would have to be cut down.
11) But if we all got our nutrition including phytonutirents from plants 11% of earths habitable land mass would be enough to feed us all
12) The meat industry clears 28 million acres of forest each year for cow pasture and feed growing , and generates more green house gases than all transportation combined .The money to do all this comes from meat we buy and from no where else . The only way to shut it down is to stop buying meat
13) If you calculate the amount of water it takes to grow a cows food and the 21 gallons per day a cow drinks it takes 2500 gallons of water per pound of beef produced .This water is pumped out of aquifers that tool 1000 year to build up and now these are running dry . UA-cam search “Mega droughts 2021” farms in the western USA are already cutting production by 1/3 due to rivers and aquifers drying up .
Even if meat eating is slightly better for the health of any isolated individual it is still a proven fact that humans can live a long healthy life on vegan diet and that a vegan diet is much less harmful to the environment .Unless we do Billions will starve due to droughts an famines.

yes brooks and he died his hair to look younger
Absolutely! Why is he so yellow...??
Years ago, I did the Dr Christopher’s school of natural healing master herbalist program… Joel’s book, eat to live was part of the curriculum…. I honestly tried his diet strictly during this school… I lost some weight, but also had tremendous digestive issues and lost a lot of strength ( I was a young active lifter at the time so I was obvious) … this debate warmed my heart all these years later.
#VeggiesAreWhatMyFoodEats 😁
You had tremendous digestive issues bc your body lacked the "machinery", in the form of gut biodiversity, to digest the fiber so it was going right through you. Do you eat fermented products regularly? When was the last time you nuked your gut with antibiotics? This is what Dr.F needs to be clearer on - you can't just switch to Nutritarian and expect immediate changes. You have to ramp up. He does say in some of his videos to ramp up beans from 1 tablespoon to 1 cup over a few months. But this also applies to everything else. 90% of people aren't going to have the bacteria to process primarily G-BOMBS in the diet when eating meat and processed foods and using heavy antibiotics for decades. Nutritarian diet saves lives but it has to be implemented correctly in accordance to each person's current microbiome. One cannot simply process a large amount of different plant fibers without the bacteria. It will be gi nightmare for the patient...
@@naughtyorgneiss that's tight!!! Joel Fuhrman and Adreas Michalsen from Berlin r the best
The above argument re: ramping up and assuming no gut bacteria is bunk. I take no antibiotics nor any meds whatsoever and eat plenty of fermented vegetables and yet my gut cannot handle raw vegetables and fruit, so far, hoping to change the fruit part by healing my gut. Taking supplemental enzymes is not an answer, didn’t help. Currently trying carnivore w some cooked and fermented vegs, low carb. Doing Jack Kruse’s Leptin Reset protocol and just taking HCL because of low stomach acid. Everything is peachy. Love it. Sunlight exposure and circadian rhythm living are key.
@adrielbadillo1942 Carnivore is a definitely a good temporary elimination diet for a hard reset for allergies and crappy gut (e.g. candida, H.P). People see good results b/c they're not spiking insulin via processed foods, not eating high gi foods, not ingesting artifical chemicals/coloring/preservatives from processed foods, etc. But its lack of prebiotic fiber is going to rob you of gut biodiversity which does incredible things for our health (look up butyric acid and other short chain fatty acids), so it should just be a short term diet. The goal everyone should have is gut biodiversity and that can also include meats in limited fashion. However, meats spike igf-1 levels which feeds cancers, and meats cause inflammation. It shoudl be noted that igf-1 can be beneficial for certain cohorts like the elderly since it assists with nutrient absorption. If you aren't old, then eating meat every single day in large quantities is asking for trouble at the hormonal level imo. I eat it about twice a week and that's enough for my body, and I also do extended fasts a few times a year which has been shown to kill up to 80% of types of cancers. So if a patient wanted to eat a crapton of meat, it could work IF the person is willing to do extended fasts. If they're not, then they are immensely increasing their cancer risk via igf-1. And if they're eating a ton of meats AND sugar (i.e. spiking glucose), it's a wrap because those are the two primary things that cancer needs. All in all, I limit meats but won't completely cut them out because I'm very active. And when I eat them, I eat a huge salad first to somewhat neutralize inflammation, according to studies. In summary, meat is nice for active athletes and carnivore is good for elimination, but it's not going optimize the gut which is optimizing our health.
@@naughtyorgneiss*all humans* lack the machinery to digest fibre. Humans don't digest fibre in any meaningful amount. you'd need like 2kg of dry refined fibre to make up your daily calories. Fiber is NOT good for humans we lost than ability when we decended from chimpanzees. This amount of fibre would also kill you from gastrointestinal pressure.... So you poop it out
I hvae not yet seen proof that humans need any gut bacteria to digest approriat food. We have the enzyme and acidic/alkaline chemistry to do without. Starch, animal protein, fat. All easy to digest without bacteria. Do you have anything to say otherwise?

Applauding you Both for doing this (y) Excellent!
Dr. Saladino, thank you so much for this conversation. I can’t think of a better person than you to debate Joel Furhman. Your good natured enthusiasm is infectious! Keep up the good work.
My favorite part about this is that Joel is literally doing all the things that he accuses Paul of doing. Cherrypicking, not looking at all the data, etc.
Yep anosognosia ...
What are you talking about?
@@happyhealthylife4ever I'm guessing you mean the other guy, but if you mean me, then you need to be more specific.
Cherry picking? It’s called the consensus! The Inuit, on their traditional diet had an average
life expectancy into there sixties! Enjoy your meat and the romance of it all but a meat based diet doesn’t produce the oldest populations. Can you have a full and meaningful life eating mainly meat? Of course. At the end of the days it comes down to individual preferences. Covid-19 and many viruses are spread from livestock. Livestock is
the most inefficient means of producing food. And there’s not enough wild animals in the world to support the human population.
@@InfiniteQuest86 nope...no mistake here ....Dr Saladino hasn’t shown any worthwhile study....as always he is not interested in evidence based nutrition.....when he continues like that he will lose his medical license like Shawn Baker...he is putting people in danger...
As a nutritional therapist here is my take on your discussion:
Overall the quality of discussion was reasonable, both sides made ok points BUT by far the most important take home message for me were the things you agree upon:
1) minimise processed foods
2) losing weight (if overweight/obese) is healthful
3) move more
4) our current healthcare system needs to focus more on diet/lifestyle, not drugs
As a side note, I also use cronometer and recommend it often to my clients.
Exactly, agree 👍
I'm not a nutritionist but I'm an Internal Medicine doctor and ID and completely agree with you. I think both recs are ok, good grass-fed meat and quality fruits, and vegetables with exercise are the key, quitting processed food and refined sugars which is what is killing us, and moving more is the strategy for long life.
Edit: And please yeah get him a chronometer so he does not think he is talking less than the guest when it was the opposite, XD.
Thanks
@@victorcepeda5745 You're mistaking a chronometer for the online software "cronometer" which is giving its users an overview of their macro- and micronutrient intake. I personally question it's viability though.
@@Nielsbaum On my edit I explain it. I meant what I said. This type of discussions need some type of chronometer.
I followed the Nutritarian diet for over two years. At first I felt good but as time went on, I lost too much weight, began to experience oxalate symptoms mainly vertigo. Beans, nuts, and many of the foods Dr Furhman recommends are high in oxalates.. they were harming me. So glad I'm now eating a meat based diet. I feel like I got my health back. Vertigo completely gone. Thank you Paul for this debate. He cant give you the data because it doesn't exist.
How much B12 were you supplementing when you were following Furmans diet?
@@WolfgangLizana I took B12 every day. 500mcg
I think a balance of solid animal protein, and organic vegetation is a perfect balance. Extremitys are never the path.
@@StylezMajorMusic when organic vegetation triggers autoimmune symptoms, then yes, extremity is the path
@@StylezMajorMusic what vegetarian based foods would you recommend ?
Paul Saladino! you are so well-spoken and relaxed and calm. ROUND OF APPLAUSE MY MAN
I know it's hard to listen to someone that's talking about things you strongly oppose without getting excited to counter, but I must say that Joel, at times, was right to criticize you for interrupting him.
I never hold credence to people who belittle when a person is feeling better, saying those who disagree with them should be in jail, or assume that certain studies exist that support their position.
I agree, and I think to make up for substance, people go to personal attacks
Joel was not friendly in the slightest. Great work keeping a level head, Paul!
That's what happens when you're not confident in what you believe or know. A person confident in what they know do not get snippy when challenged.
Wow, what a biased comment. They both attacked each other and blatantly tried to smother the other's opinion...which is fine, it's a debate lol. Just cause Paul said "please" a few times doesn't cover up for all the times he cut off Joel and said his data was garbage. Joel also said "please" several times. You're just a zealot so you can't see these things clearly.
Dr Kahn looks and sounds great at 67. Dr. Saladino is an impressive/up and coming outlier. I love a good, contentious bout. These two men are pushing all of us to a more intelligent realization of who we are and were, and what we may become. I'm grateful to be alive in a time when I can learn from two such people. Thank you Universe for this confluence of opposing ideas.
You mean Dr. Fuhrman.
Sadly even if Paul had long term studies (aside from the obvious ancestral study) this guy would never admit that Paul is right. His legacy would go down in history as wrong and judging by how highly he thinks of himself in his introduction, humility is not something he’s capable of nor will his narrow minded agenda allow him to be more receptive to what Paul has to say and has studied. He lost me with his affiliation to PBS👎🏻

It has quickly became evident to me Dr. Fuhrman has no idea who he is dealing with (he is completely talking down to Dr. Saladino) and now at 22:00 he mentions 'blue zones.' Oh boy. This should be interesting...
He did absolutely zero preparation for this debate. So embarrassing. You can be wrong and still look prepared, but that’s not even remotely true of this poor guy.
Paul is so rude !! Just because you haven’t seen the study Paul doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.. !! Paul’s defensiveness should tell you everything.. anyone that has truth on their side doesn’t need to be aggressive and defensive.. Dr Fuhrman is correct the body of evidence is overwhelming on this topic.

This discussion was actually pretty fascinating, especially after reading The Dieticians Dilemma by Michelle Hurn. Dr. Fuhrman brought up Seventh Day Adventists repeatedly. They play a not insignificant role in nutrition research and policy in America.
Sadly true about 7th Day influencing the government’s diet recommendations. And not just in the US. See Dr. Fettke’s story in Australia.

I was a vegetarian and a vegan and i ended up with health problems, low energy and about 40 pounds overweight even though i was working out. It wasn't until I went on a keto diet that i lost weight, my digestive problems are resolved and i feel great. I've been eating this way for 1.5 years and would recommend it to anyone who wants to feel great and improve health.
Congrats on escaping the cult
Yes! Same here. 💪

That was the problem. It wasn't what you were avoiding. It was what exactly you WERE eating.
You were not eating MY vegan diet: CarboRaider
@@GaryHighFruit and the cult member has entered the conversation. Your argument is “you’re not doing vegan right!” I’ll accept that. However, you need to accept that all of the BS studies that Dr Bozo brought up aren’t people that are doing meat right. Eating a hamburger and a beef patty aren’t the same thing. I say do what works for you and don’t worry about anyone else.
@Svenskanorden1 I don't know how hard it is, about half of the vegans I know of personally is overweight, and the ones that are the most overweight have been vegan for 10+ years
Amazing debate Paul, i am sure JF will go skiing and then stop at a meat restaurant after this conversation!!! Great
This was an easy win for Dr Fuhrman. Even I could have argued some of those studies the interviewer presented.
at min. 55: "keto is dangerous longterm." I've been following the Atkins diet and now keto/carnivore for over 20 years and have never been healthier. my blood work is that of a 20 year old WRT inflammatory markers, insulin levels, etc. Of course my lipid panel shows higher levels of CHL and LDL, but my TG:HDL ratio is 0.5
Great number. I started Atkins in 1995. Been low carb ever since but struggled due to all the high carb scolds like Furman who would not let me be low carb enough. Went extremely low carb/carnivore about 10.5 months ago eating one meal a day and since then my TG/HDL numbers have been 1.43 last August on extremely low carb and 1.4 this April on carnivore. Prior ratios were not that bad --in the low 2s -- but still gained weight when I was over 50 or 60 grams of carbs a day. Going Omad and extremely low carb/carnivore dropped 25 pounds and reduced BMI from over thirty to 26. And I am 70. All labs are normal except total cholesterol and LDL.
Get this -- my testosterone was 713 last August and 900 this April in 70 year old man. But that is due primarily to progesterone which I have taken daily since 2013. Progesterone is the precursor of testosterone and progesterone is made from LDL. Even with high LDL I could not make enough progesterone to keep normal levels (much less optimal ones) of testosterone. We probably all are progesterone deficient. But going extremely low carb/carnivore has probably bumped up my testosterone a couple hundred points.
@@davidgmillsatty1900 Impressive, brother...
Me too for the past 15 years. Maybe we’re the exception but it works for us.
I thank Dr Furlman for coming on today and speaking about his lifestyle.
@@mrcadoia It is just amazing what progesterone will do for men. Testosterone is made from progesterone. It is that simple. More progesterone, more testosterone. I was applying (topically) about 120 mg of progesterone a day to get these results. In the past at 60 mg a day I was 590. I upped the progesterone due to pain from shingles (post herpetic neuralgia) and joint pain. Progesterone is a great anti-inflammatory and pain killer. My testosterone shot up in the process. The amount of progesterone I use costs me about $20 to $25 a month.
@@mrcadoia raypeat.com is the best place to study progesterone. I am not sure that Dr. Peat mentions that it will increase testosterone. But that is what happened to me when I started taking it for pain and inflammation for which it is well known as a treatment. I have recommended it to many people and they have reported similar results.
Fuhrman speaks ONLY about observational studies, zero interventional studies.
Where is credibility?
He reminds me medieval inquisitor with his appearance and way of thinking.
What's wrong with observational studies?
@@LisaMurphy Observational studies do not prove anything. Interventional studies show causation. They show what directly causes an issue in humans. Just observing something so complex with some many variables is not possible. There is room for too many errors. Research scientists need to control what their test subjects ingest so as not to skew the results. With something as important as health we need to pin point the cause of diesease, disorder, and malnutrition. Google interventional studies, and you will get a good picture of how important they are compared epidemiological studies that only correlate between rises in health markers not what is causing these rises.
@@LisaMurphy observational studies showing correlation not causation.
Because observational studies are not randomized, they cannot control for all of the other inevitable, often unmeasurable, exposures or factors that may actually be causing the results.
Any “link” between cause and effect in observational studies is more or less speculative .
@@odious5317 Well I googled it and it got too confusing for me with science jargon. So let me ask: would an interventional study on red meat be one where you have a group of people all eating a certain amount of red meat every day over the course of five years, to see how it affects their blood work, weight, and other health factors? So it's like a completely controlled study?
@@LisaMurphy Yes, it's a completely controlled study. The duration of the study can vary.
The common ground is the elimination of process food and oils.
I was vegan for an entire year and had some good results. After being on the SAD diet weighing 215lbs I lost 18lbs no acid reflux, slept better. Went back on the SAD diet because I did not see all the great benifits that were proposed by the vegan experts. I was eating 7 to 8 times a day and was always hungry all the time.
After 13 months on the SAD I went to 220lbs.
I have been on a Carnivore diet for 6 months and Have lost 58lbs no acid reflux, sleeping better, waking up quicker, more alert, reflexes are improved, and other things that got fixed that I don’t want to mention public.
I’m 54 and haven’t felt this fantastic since my 20’s.
Exact same thing happens to me when I turned carnivore. Keep it up. Now I eat animal based.
Dr. Fuhrman is basing his beliefs on the WHO and a cancer research center? Those 2 of the worst places to get viable information from. Also, any study can be made to say whatever the funding group wants it to say.
"Shut up and eat your healthy seed oil" - WHO
I have the utmost respect for Dr. Saladino, but I think this debate could have been more civil, it got real heated, not sure if it was in fact a "friendly debate" lol. It felt like Joel got bullied later on in the debate, probably because he was condescending to Paul at first. Joel was ultimately outclassed by Paul who was much better prepared.
Also, I find it hilarious that the plant base doctor's last name is pronounced "Fur-man" like some sort of hunter, and the animal based doctor's last name has Salad in it.
The fact that Joel made some derogatory remarks about Paul (saying he should be in jail) prior to this debate could have soured things. I will say that Joel Fuhrman does seem like one of the more rational vegans, he admitted the potential for nutrient deficiencies on the vegan diet, the necessity of supplementation, avoidance of refined carbs and sugars, and how plant based people may benefit from at least small amounts of animal foods. They had more in common than they may have initially realized, and many plant based advocates would not have admitted what Dr. Fuhrman did.
I wish they covered more things in detail, as opposed to arguing about the validity of the studies behind their claims, interrupting each other, and calling each others sources garbage, etc. which should have been put on the back burner after a while of stagnant debate.
I wish they would have covered how subtle, easily overlooked factors such as improper methionine/glycine balance, and the consumption of high linoleic acid meats from soy/corn fed animals could impact outcomes on long term studies on meat consumption, in addition to the hazards of plant defense chemicals, antinutrients, and the ethics of meat consumption, going into detail about regenerative agriculture, alternatives to factory farming, nutrient density in pastured vs. conventional, whether going vegan is realistic for the majority of people, etc.
There were so many productive topics that could have been explored further. I think that both sides should have considered the other more closely. Joel was claiming that the long term epidemiologic data is the gold standard, and he was unwilling to consider contradictory information, making excuses or calling the studies that Paul showed garbage, and Paul was claiming epidemiologic data on nutritional science is sub par due to healthy and unhealthy user bias, and that interventional data contradicts it, calling into question it's validity; the problem here is that there is no long term interventional data on a carnivore diet, so how can you completely disregard concerns ?
They are both right in a way. There are no long term studies on the carnivore diet, so you cant say with absolute certainty that you wont have a reduced lifespan. While the majority of humans ate a meat centric diet throughout our evolution, and many modern indigenous populations are still eating a meat centric diet with good health, this does not necessarily mean that a meat centric diet is going to result in the best possible lifespan. You don't need to live to 90-100+ years old to carry on your genes. With that being said, the claim that a diet devoid of the food that we are biologically adapted to consume is the optimal diet for human health is a tough sell.
Is this supposed reduction in lifespan seen in other omnivores, or carnivores ? What intrinsic properties could meat possibly have in order to cause these effects ? If meat actually does have properties that can reduce the human lifespan, is it even the meat itself, or how it is processed and prepared, considering the fact that our bodies have adapted to it's consumption ? If meat does have properties that reduce lifespan, can they be mitigated against whilst retaining the nutritional benefits of meat consumption ?
What about the documented health benefits of high fish consumption, such as increased lifespan and reduced cardiovascular, cancer, Alzheimer's, and liver disease mortality risk ?
There needs to be a long term study on modern people, living with modern convivence, hygiene, and medicine, free from the pressure of environmental hazards consuming a "nose to tail" animal based diet, like the kind Dr. Saladino recommends. At the moment, it is not really possible to say with certainty whether or not eating meat will reduce lifespan, not eating any meat probably will if you don't have an expertly planned and adequately supplemented vegan diet. IMHO the safest option is to just eat a balanced diet without processed foods, focusing on a variety of lower toxicity plant foods, and high quality pasture raised/grass fed/free range meats, and eliminating refined vegetable and seed oils. Most health experts, regardless of their dietary preference would at the very least reluctantly agree with this.
I think that nutrition researches and doctors should be asking these questions, not attempting to confirm their own biases and proselytize for them, screwing all of us in the process. I also think that Dr. Saladino's voice, while controversial, is one that needs to be heard, and the fact that he welcomes people like this on his podcasts instead of just hiding in an echo chamber is very respectable.
Thankyou for your well thought out comment. Very well put. I need to look into that glycine balance you mentioned! I just started taking glycine isolate to help with sleep and it has helped alot, plus seems to ease my digestion too in the morning
Well done Paul. Shame Joel didn't have evidence to present, despite "writing a book" on the topic. Alarm bells started ringing when he mentioned the Who-backed studies.. Widely known that they are corrupt AF. Personally I mainly eat meat, fish, nuts, eggs and avocado's, but also enjoy salads and some blueberries or a banana after a hard workout. The real villains today are the manufacturers of refined, ultra-processed foods, along with unhealthy, stress-laden lifestyles🙄

The Maasai and their Diet
The Maasai are a pastoralist tribe living in Kenya and Northern Tanzania. Their traditional diet consists almost entirely of milk, meat, and blood. Two thirds of their calories come from fat, and they consume 600 - 2000 mg of cholesterol a day. To put that number in perspective, the American Heart Association recommends consuming under 300 mg of cholesterol a day.
In spite of a high fat, high cholesterol diet, the Maasai have low rates of diseases typically associated with such diets.
They tend to have low blood pressure, their overall cholesterol levels are low, they have low incidences of cholesterol gallstones, as well as low rates of coronary artery diseases such as atherosclerosis.
I partially agree with this statement assuming it's true but also what about the factor of them running and walking everywhere . Perhaps on a carni diet we may also need to be also very active also perhaps.?
They eat tubers and fruit also no? What’s there life expectancy..

Re: Joel Furman...
After reading his Book, Fit For Life, I thought he had all the right answers with his mostly vegan nutrient dense diet. Then after applying the principles he held forth and not having any effect on my wife's hypertension we made an appointment to see him at his office in NJ. I thought he would have offered a more personal program for her to follow but no. That wasn't what happened. Her BP while in his office was 205/95. So after going to see him in person the only effect it had was to make us $500 poorer. That was many years ago. He told us that likely the only thing that would help her would be an extended water only fast. However, we did find an herbal formula from a functional MD, that did control her BP. Then we discovered Keto. We did that for two years followed by six months of mostly carnivore. Today my wife's blood pressure is normal even without the herbal formula.

The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him.
Need animal protein and nutrients to support cardiac remodelling unfortunately... And salt. I cannot take the guy seriously if he thinks salt is bad, you will die of dehydration without salt. It does the opposite of cause hypertension in many people... He would only be partially correct with an extended water fast since that would support cardiac remodelling and removing arterial plaque but not provide the nutrition to support it. But he only had to suggest that because of his insistence on carbohydrates that is not a required nutrition for h umans.

'Dr' Fuhrman won't be back, not after this public humiliation
The debate should not be which is healthier , a vegan or meat diet. Both have been proven to be more than adequate to sustain heath and prolong life .
It is a fact that Top athletes like Carl Lewis who won 9 gold metals over 20 years was vegan
Its is fact that the world’s greatest geniuses like Leonardo Davinci , Albert Einstein , Benjamin Franklin and Nikolai Tesla were vegan
It is fact that there are about 79 million vegans in the world .So there is no doubt that it is possible for a human top survive and flourish on a vegan diet.
The question not wither a meat diet is threat to the health of an isolated individual
The much more serious question to get clear on is wither a meat diet will cause catastrophic human suffering .
Here are some more FACTS
1) deforestation : The meat industry clears additional 28 million acres of forest per year
2) pumping aquifers dry : It takes 2500 galloons of water to produce each pound of beef
3) generation of more green house gasses than all forms of transportation put together
4) The average Global temperature has gone up from 13.94C to 14.94C in the last 142 years a 6.9% increase
5) Human activities add 3% to naturally occurring green house gasses. Humans have removed 1/3 of the worlds forests . So by adding 3% and subtracting 33% humans have increased the build up of green house gasses by 36% over what nature was doing .
6) An acre of forest transpires 48,219.6 gallon per day per acre
7) By clearing 1/3 of the earths forest we are causing droughts like these drought IN USA like these : ua-cam.com/video/w3YYH7hQTT8/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/K9hUNufKIKw/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/kYsrGaHX7M4/v-deo.html

Even if meat eating is slightly better for the health of any isolated individual it is still a proven fact that humans can live a long healthy productive life on a vegan diet and that a vegan diet is much less harmful to the environment .Unless we do Billions will starve due to droughts and famines.

I appreciate you putting this debate together Joel. Debates are great ways to hear out both sides and get a clearer picture of the data.
With that said, I’m halfway through the video and it’s difficult to watch. While both debaters interrupted each other, Paul’s interruptions far outweigh Joel’s. Paul summarized 4-5 research papers and called Joel unfair for interrupting him during that segment, yet interrupted him every statement Joel makes right after the research segment. He couldn’t get a word out.
For debates like these, moderators who have timers are the way to go. Split it up with each person getting 10-15m segments uninterrupted to share their main points, then do 5 minute responses back and forth. Without strict time guidance these debates devolve quickly and whoever is louder or more assertive tends to come out on top.

I will never trust a scientist trying to manipulate their audience by pretending correlation is anything more than a thing that gives ideas for what to study interventionally and clinically next.
🤣🤣🤣
I knew a guy who ate a turnip, and he got hit by a bus.
@@PV-free123world I will never eat a turnip again, therefor I will never be hot by a bus.
And the murder rate also increases in summer-time. Don't be too surprised if some pro-vegan study or other starts telling us that dairy induces psychopathy.
Is this Dr. Furhman a vegan? Well that discredits him, although that's not to say that I'm a fan of the keto diet. I think the Keto diet is ok for helping dangerously obese people lose weight but is not healthy long term. The people in this world who live the longest eat a balance of veggies and meats.
Adding meat back into my diet (after 3 years vegetarian.. yuck) and eliminating plants saved my life and cured a ton of ailments for me. I say it saved me because I was so depressed on a veg diet I just wanted to die and not exist anymore. Changing my diet and eating mainly meat has improved my life and no one can tell me otherwise. Saved me. Thank you to the animals who provide us with nutrition, the farmers who tend to these beautiful creatures, and to the people who promote this way of eating. Most carnivores (IMO) don’t care about the lack of studies; the evidence we have is mainly anecdotal but incredibly powerful.
The vegan diet plus supplementing left my body weak and falling apart slowly..once I added a variety meat along with the plant based diet,my body is now functioning normal. I think variety is the key
@Falcon one plants have tons of antinutrients.
He lost me at “supported by the WHO and backed by the NIH.”
That’s really all I needed to hear.
Been on Saladino’s diet for a couple months - feel great.
Went vegan and stopped at six months, felt like a breeze would knock me over.
My only qualm, and something I’ll continue to feel out, is eating something that feels emotions. The journey never ends I guess.
Just find what works for you.
what did you eat when you were vegan so many people eat complete shit when they go vegan and they dont supplement b12 iodine and omega 3 you have to add your food into cronometer to make sure you meat requirements espeically for choline as a vegan its not easy to do thats why most people fail a vegan diet i dont blame you ive thought of going back to eating meat a few times from how challenging it can be sometimes, also gluten intolrance and celiac disease is becoming ever more common and literally most prepackaged foods will make you sick if you have that issue like me i cant even eat any grains because they make me sick theyre disgusting
@@RealJonzuk Vegans always cheat with junk because it's impossible to be satiated by the beans and rice. You add seed oils, inflammatory wheat toast, or 'gluten free' toast made out of inflammatory corn. Oats, which make you ravenous after an hour. It's the lack of fat and protein that fuels cravings and it's impossible to stay clean on WFPB. Ask me how I know.
If you have gut issues on a vegan diet you're basically done for. All grains are toxic, legumes are both high in FODMAP and histamine and lectins if you don't pressure cook. What else is left lol? You think eating onions and garlic is good for an inflamed gut?
Lol, you need lots of supplements, Go on a meat based diet and no longer need supplements. That says everything you need to know.
@@Mantis858585 I've now come to the conclusion that no one treats other animal better than humans. have you seen what wild dogs do to their prey? in fact, what all animals do to their prey.
You’re both right. You need both animal products and some plants and avoid processed foods and seed oils and junk. Admittedly there are out lyres. My dad is 80 and a smoker. But I remember him always eating steaks 🥩 and salad 🥗 also. He likes his carbs too. SO be a study of one and see what makes you feel better.
People like this Fuhrman dude will never come to any logical conclusion when it comes to diet. The way he frames his sentences shows his way of thinking: ''comparing animal protein to plant protein'' is already such a loaded comparison. Where does the animal come from, how was the diet of the animal, is it processed, is it filled with chemicals and so on... . Just your typical stubborn scientism study guy who doesn't see the truth when it is right in front of him and contradicts with his ''studies''. Not listening to such people anymore.
Cult think...emotional reasoning...
Also, is the "animal protein" in the form of whole, real food, or an isolate like whey powder?
The protein debate is easily won with stating the fact that animal proteins are complete proteins, the latter is not. Plus bioavailability factors
He accuses Dr. Paul of having a religious, preference informed belief system and then demonstrates that he is the one operating from a religious belief system. The hallmarks of which are the personal attacks. He gets personal right away and throughout.
This was very interesting, and I appreciate your continual focus on high quality science.
I was a vegetarian or almost one from age 12 to recently. I began a more carnivore-based diet in December and increased my diet to include grass-fed beef in January. There are mental and physical benefits beyond what I ever could have imagined. I will not be changing back to an unsatiating diet that does not provide sufficient iron for my needs. Respect for inviting this guest on but...my brain knows what is best for it and the rest of me.
Once your body feels true satiation and nourishment.....you never go back to deprivation. I only did veganism for 2 years, and I promise you! I'll never go back
@@jessicaraye It for sure takes some self-discipline but I consider it self-care at its finest. Glad to hear you're making what is see as optimal choices!
@ZyklonBeast me too! Some who really appear to have stopped the clock on their aging!
"As a hunter-gatherer society, the Hadza have no domesticated livestock, nor do they grow or store their own food. The Hadza survive by hunting their food with hand-made bows and arrows and foraging for edible plants. The Hadza diet is primarily plant-based but also consists of meat, fat, and honey." - National Geographic
Why did he mention it as an example?
👌🏼 Thank you Dr. Saladino! I can't wait for the next friendly debate! 😆
Lol too bad so much time was wasted arguing about epidimiological studies.. i want to hear a debate about anti-nutrients
The debate should not be which is healthier , a vegan or meat diet. Both have been proven to be more than adequate to sustain heath and prolong life .
It is a fact that Top athletes like Carl Lewis who won 9 gold metals over 20 years was vegan
Its is fact that the world’s greatest geniuses like Leonardo Davinci , Albert Einstein , Benjamin Franklin and Nikolai Tesla were vegan
It is fact that there are about 79 million vegans in the world .So there is no doubt that it is possible for a human top survive and flourish on a vegan diet.
The question not wither a meat diet is threat to the health of an isolated individual
The much more serious question to get clear on is wither a meat diet will cause catastrophic human suffering .
Here are some more FACTS
1) deforestation : The meat industry clears additional 28 million acres of forest per year
2) pumping aquifers dry : It takes 2500 galloons of water to produce each pound of beef
3) generation of more green house gasses than all forms of transportation put together
4) The average Global temperature has gone up from 13.94C to 14.94C in the last 142 years a 6.9% increase
5) Human activities add 3% to naturally occurring green house gasses. Humans have removed 1/3 of the worlds forests . So by adding 3% and subtracting 33% humans have increased the build up of green house gasses by 36% over what nature was doing .
6) An acre of forest transpires 48,219.6 gallon per day per acre
7) By clearing 1/3 of the earths forest we are causing droughts like these drought IN USA like these : ua-cam.com/video/w3YYH7hQTT8/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/K9hUNufKIKw/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/kYsrGaHX7M4/v-deo.html

8) 1 billion people are already going hungry and can not get clean water .5000 die every year from drinking dirty water
9) There is another group of vegans worth studying :THE RADHA SOAMI SAT SANG BEAS , who began in 1856 and today number over 4 million . Im a me member and I can tell you they are very healthy and strong and do live to a ripe old age .Here’s a video ua-cam.com/video/PtlKdbAXZmw/v-deo.html
10) What Paul said about getting Phytonutrients from grass fed beef is not practical . Already 38% of the earth’s habitable land mass is used for cow pasture and to grow cow feed . If all our cows were pasture fed it would require 95% of earths habitable surface . The grass fed rule is 1 cow per minimum 1-3 acres (conventional) 1 cow per minimum 2.5-6 acres (regenerative ) depending on rain fall and type of pasture. All of earths forests would have to be cut down.
11) But if we all got our nutrition including phytonutirents from plants 11% of earths habitable land mass would be enough to feed us all
12) The meat industry clears 28 million acres of forest each year for cow pasture and feed growing , and generates more green house gases than all transportation combined .The money to do all this comes from meat we buy and from no where else . The only way to shut it down is to stop buying meat
13) If you calculate the amount of water it takes to grow a cows food and the 21 gallons per day a cow drinks it takes 2500 gallons of water per pound of beef produced .This water is pumped out of aquifers that tool 1000 year to build up and now these are running dry . UA-cam search “Mega droughts 2021” farms in the western USA are already cutting production by 1/3 due to rivers and aquifers drying up .
Even if meat eating is slightly better for the health of any isolated individual it is still a proven fact that humans can live a long healthy life on vegan diet and that a vegan diet is much less harmful to the environment .Unless we do Billions will starve due to droughts an famines.
@@rbbiefahFuck me. You need to actually go through each point and do some solid research as a lot of it is totally ridiculous. Wherever you found that was not a good source of information.
I was meat eater suffered from kidney stones, and bad health overall been vegan for 5 years sharp mind and great health over all.
It's the opposite for me plants were giving me kidney stones
Veganism is malnutrition. You lack 15 nutrients that you can't get from any plant food.
Jeez Paul stop he's already dead!
Walking dead yep...

Same! Especially the very first response Paul made about j saying he needs to go to jail 😂😂
Great debate.Joel has helped guide many to health.i enjoy following both experts.
Paul won this debate hands down.
As a meat eater, I can tell ya that no one won.
It's a just a debate. These two doctors have just different opinions.
@@r3dghok427Paul won
I’m a high fat low carb guy. Using keto and carnivore in cycles along with fasting, high intensity, and thermal training. Been doing this for over 7 years. I have vegan and vegetarian friends who have been devoted as I am and yet I’m the only one who doesn’t have any medical issues, aches and pains, headaches, and my energy levels are unmatched compared to them. Truth is, if this guy would try it for 30 days he would have to rethink his stance. His age spots, receding hair line, and ghostly like skin tone says he needs some more red meat.
To be fair to the doctor, male hairlines are almost purely genetic. DHT sensitivity is a bitch for hair follicles.
Perhaps, but he does look far above average, if not fantastic for a 67 year old… don’t be dogmatic about it.
There are numerous whole plant based advocates that are 90+ years old. The data backs up the idea that a whole plant based diet extends lifespan. Where's the carnivore blue zones? You're eating a diet ancient man could never have. Your diet is the result of modernization and living in a wealthy country. Nothing natural about it.
@@chancewiese4872 exactly. Plus the dude is simply old. Being old makes you look....old lol
another bullshitter. You're actually singing MY SONG. I'm the healthiest person I know. I'm a high-fruit vegan for 27 years.
Here is my observation. Both Doctors had a great debate. I have noticed that the animal meat base Doctor seems to be under the weather, coughing, struggling to speak, and clearing his throat, whereas the plant base doctor did not cough or clear his throat at all and he is 27 years older. Meat causes inflammation, which produces sickness.
Great debate Paul, I don't think Joel will be back for a part 2. Would be interested to get an update from you if Joel does actually send you those studies that he says can, I won't hold my breath.
Really great debate. I hope comes back on so you guys can go more in-depth. Sounds like a part two is definitely in order.
All I know is that every time I would go plant based, My eczema would flare up and I would start having really bad gut issues. Had to stop plant based thought I was dying!

Healthy user bias is not even the biggest problem with epidemiology, imo the biggest problem is that in 99% of the studies people are on a mixed carb/fat diet, so decreasing either of them will result in a improved outcome and vice versa.
Paul, you did an amazing job brother! Backed up everything you were talking about with solid evidence. Dr. Fuhrman was sitting there like a fool with his "studies"
1) There are plenty of interventive studies showing that meat eaters with chronic diseases fully recover when whey adopt a vegan diet . See the Gerson institutes ‘DVD “ FOOD MATTERS “ documentary (netflix or your local library )
2) The reason why there are no interventive studies showing that a healthy vegan will develop disease if the eat a meat diet is because a) the vegans are unwilling to participate b) yiu can not have an interventive study unless there is a disease condition . A vegan on a whole food diet (no refined foods ) does not any disease
3) Paul said we need meat for our brain : ua-cam.com/video/kVlSX_EF8wE/v-deo.html Why HISTORY's Greatest Minds Didn't EAT MEAT Socraties , Leonardo DaVinci , Albert Einstein , Nikolai Telsa , Buddha , Rosa Parks, Bengamin Franklin , Sir Issaac Newton ,Thomas Edison , Susan B Anthony , Gandhi,
(note: I interject here that DHA is lost in sex .It is in semen . Our brain needs DHA to be healthy so don’t over do the sex )
4) Paul said we need meat for our bodies . Meat was out lawed in Japan from 675-1875 AD. During that time a legendary vegan warrior , THE SAMURAI, gained prominence . Today we have the extremely fats , strong , tough Shaolin Monks who are all pure vegan . I have ben vegan 40 years .In 1982 I became lacto vegan .In 1995 I became pure vegan. At that time I was almost 35 and could barely run my daily 4 miles without wanting to walk . In 1995 I quit the milk an cottage cheese and got my protein from collards , kale , turnip greens , cauliflower and bok choy and stopped eating bulgar and wheat flakes and started sprouting whole grain and soon I could run 10 miles with no fatigue .Today at age 62 I still run 7 miles 4-5 times a week and work 60 hours a week on my small farm( see my youtube videos .

"solid evidence"
You are coloring by adding opinion... just like Paul did when he said "Unfortunate" work of Keys.
Dropped my plant consumption and upped my meat intake - feeling so much better/ clearer/ energised and stronger in the gym & a lot more muscular/ clear skin etc. my body feels…peaceful, strong and at ease
This is really excellent and valuable. We need more debates like these. Kudos to Saladino reaching out to do the debates.It's not often enough you see podcast discussions from different viewpoints. This is the way forward. Being respectful is classy - giving both parties plenty of time to respond and not interrupting - emotions run high and don't help. To take it forward, why not get a neutral moderator, who can contain things a bit more and summarise each position after each point is debated? A problem here is 'cognitive under-specification' i.e. there is too much information out there in the world for our brains to be able to accurately process it all (at our stage of evolution). That's what I think leads to the inevitable confusion and disagreement, which is normal. It is indeed difficult to dismiss long term studies showing increased mortality from eating red meat even if they are epidemiological. These are concerning and need to be taken seriously as it's a bit of a stretch to believe they can all be unreliable because of confounding variables. That said, the smaller interventionist studies, and epidemiological ones lending support to the Saladino position pose serious questions for plant based diets. If this was a boxing contest I would say it went to points and the decision was a draw even if the weight of evidence, such that it is i.e. questionable is heavier on the plant based side. While there continues to be no consensus, and I'm not sure there ever will be, I find myself having to take a compromising omnivore position, which is also going to have its down sides.
