I plant to interview Dr Lowndes again as soon as possible. So, please let me know your questions under this pinned comment.
The "Tim Kaufman" video is here: ua-cam.com/video/R_TLJ5BVrbM/v-deo.html
Dr Frank Sabatino video is coming soon and already scheduled as well as many more of course. I schedule these videos out pretty far out in advance now. I'm just implemented the membership packages for those who want to see some videos before they're released... Some videos sit for many months before they're released. :) I do all this solo and my own dime and time. I just got back from an 18 hour drive to Texas where I was gone almost 3 weeks and captured 25 more interviews and 7 presentations, next is Washington, then Virginia, etc... Prior to Texas I was shooting in Iowa, Chicago, Detroit, Ohio, etc... want to get to Boston soon and work my way down the east coast again. One way to help me keep the cameras rolling is: veganlinked.com/fundme/ But, subscribing, watching, sharing, commenting, and HELPING WITH THE HATERS in the comments kindly :) all of that helps! Thanks for watching!
I follow an Australian activist called Tash Peterson, her channel is called V-gan Booty... I'd LOVE to see a zoom with her!
If you plan on going to Austin, definitely hit up Rip; he knows many in town like the owner of Casa de Luz (highly recommend) and, Raad, the owner of ATXFoodCo.
@@michaelscoots wait, that is an AWESOME idea!!! I'm actually going to Texas soon... hmmmm... help me reach him!!!
@@VeganLinked ok!
@@VeganLinked Do you have a rough window of when you plan on being in the Austin area?
I'm the guy that lost the weigh in this video , I lost down 100 lbs after that and gained some back now im on my way again down and feel so much better. This Dr Harrison I say saved my life more than once ; I was very lucky to have met him or I would have been dead. Thank you Dr Harrison and good luck with your retirement! Robert Tidmore
Thank you for the little white lie, you inspired me to get healthy and showed me how, thank you, I will always remember you! Always . Robert Tidmore, rock on!
It’s for life brother good luck
Congratulations and yes you were blessed to have met Dr Harrison.
@@shantianita3282 yes I was! He was one of many on this journey that touched my life, his staff were excellent! ! And I was very impressed with there personal touch to make sure you weren't just a number! I loved that the most!
I've been vegan since 1990. I was 5 months pregnant when I switched to a vegan diet. I was vegetarian for 6 years before that. My son who is now 32 has remained vegan to this day.
Awesome, I'm doing a large series on vegans from conception and would love to get you and your son in the mix!!!
What motivated you to switch to vegan during pregnancy? We're you having blood pressure problems?
@@mselite3250 it was an ethical decision my husband and I made when we saw some information about calves and the dairy industry. I actually really loved dairy at the time, but just felt I should do the right thing. It has turned out well for all of us health wise I believe.
@@veganandlovingit
People of compassion!
Wow I am floored he admitted that 70% of cancer is related to diet. How many oncologists would ever admit this? Excellent interview. Well worth the travel.
My oncologist said diet has very little to do with my endometrial cancer. It was WRONG information. Then I met a lady in a clothing store who coincidentally had same cancer as me. But she had been treated in Boston using an integrated approach. They told her to go whole foods plant based with no added sugar, no added salt, and no added oils/fats. There were other differences in the care we got. She got told to reduce stress, exercise, etc. I was not told that. My treatment in a smaller city had been missing critical components.
That’s why this is such a compelling interview. I hope he doesn’t lose his license.
@@happycook6737 same here with the info, but I already knew all this and my diet was pretty damn good! Not perfect but pretty damn good! I had a low risk breast cancer. I think for me it was the pesticides and fertilizers my neighbors uses. Either that or I was too close when 9/11 happened and maybe it triggered something? But they think I had this for 5 yrs. So that would be too long ago i suppose. But I was very close during 9/11. That second plane flew over my head on my way to school.
-I’ve been vegan for 10 yrs. Before that I was a veg head for 18 yrs.
He didn't say related to diet. He just said 70% are preventable. Probably due to other factors as well.
@@user-bv7mk8id5t Hi, as a veg head, did you consume raw dairy? Bovine Leukemia virus has been implicated in breast cancer. Pasteurization kills viruses. Raw egg yolks can also be a vector for viruses. When you say you were too close to 9/11, did you breathe in the debris? Can you share what you did for the breast cancer? Thanks for sharing🙏💛
Omg. This dr gives a “prescription “ of books to read, documentaries to watch and websites to go to! This is the most incredible thing I ever heard.

I'm a cancer survivor (so far :) ) and trying prevent a recurrence is a major reason I'm trying again to stick to wfpb eating. While watching the video I discovered I live about an hour from Dr. Harrison. Great interview! Love the 'greasy, slimy, decaying animal flesh' quote. Whenever someone says they like to eat shrimp, I say "Oh, you mean ocean roaches?"
Crabs are big spiders lol
What....
@@karenkelly6785 where?
@@karenkelly6785 "Crabs, lobsters, shrimp, barnacles and many other animals belong to the phylum arthropods. In fact, 75% of all animals belong to the phylum arthropoda (which also includes spiders and insects). All arthropods have a hard exoskeleton made of chiton, a type of protein."
I’m so happy to see a conventional medicine oncologist choosing a vegan diet with emphasis on importance of plant-based life style. Thank you! 👍🙏♥️🌱
My God an oncologist like this we need millions more. So awesome
Are you ready to be disciplined and follow daily diet for the rest of your life to buy sort of health insurance against gastric cancer? Really ? So why you don't do that already ? Just curious.

Follow a healthy eating pattern at all ages.
A healthy eating pattern includes:
Foods that are high in nutrients in amounts that help you get to and stay at a healthy body weight
A variety of vegetables - dark green, red and orange, fiber-rich legumes (beans and peas), and others
Fruits, especially whole fruits in a variety of colors
Whole grains
A high-fiber diet has the following health benefits:
Bowel movement: Insoluble fiber maintains bowel movements. They absorb water and softens the stool. Soft stool is easier to pass, thus preventing constipation. They also add bulk to the stools hence prevent the formation of loose stools.[11]
Improved bowel health: High fiber diet prevents the formation or worsening of hemorrhoids and diverticular disease, which presents as outpouchings in the colon walls.
Studies have shown that a high-fiber diet decreases the risk of colorectal cancer.[12]
Cholesterol-lowering effects: Soluble fibers bind to cholesterol molecules in the small intestine and prevent their absorption. The cholesterol-lowering properties of soluble fibers help to prevent coronary heart disease.[13]
Postprandial glucose and insulin levels: Soluble fibers slow the absorption and digestion of carbohydrates and lower insulin demand in the body, thereby stabilizing postprandial glucose levels.[14][15][16]
Improved satiety and weight loss: Soluble fibers make the stomach contents viscous and prolong gastric emptying time. Studies have shown this to help reduce weight, improve BMI, lower body fat, and waist-to-hip ratio.[17]
Cancer prevention: Some studies have shown that soluble fibers such as pectin have antioxidant properties and lower the risk of other types of cancer, including breast cancer.[18]
Helps to live longer: Fiber intake is associated with decreased prevalence of diabetes type 2, coronary heart disease, stroke, and improved immune function.[19][17]
Thank you! As a biology teacher for 25 years I have always told my students what you said at 06:10 (everyone worries about protein, nobody worries about fiber)!
Lack of fiber is likely causing the diverticulosis epidemic as well.
You're joking right?
@@dg297 it's the exact opposite actually. That and the exogenous carbohydrates
Fiber has absolutely no nutritional value and clogs the intestines. All the nutrients come from meat and absorbs into your system quickly. The first two weeks of carnivore your body adjusts to meat only with loose stools because it’s unclogging the system from fiber.
I would NEVER take nutritional advice from a radiologist
You're joking, right? Actually there is zero science supporting what you're saying. Do you really think you know more than the totality of evidence i.e. American College of Lifestyle Medicine, Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics is the largest on organization on the plant of dietitians and nutritionist and state vegan is healthy for every stage of life, Medicare, Kaiser Permanente, WHO, etc even the American Cancer Society says:
Notice they say "fiber rich"
"A healthy eating pattern includes:
Foods that are high in nutrients in amounts that help you get to and stay at a healthy body weight
A variety of vegetables - dark green, red and orange, fiber-rich legumes (beans and peas), and others
Fruits, especially whole fruits in a variety of colors
Whole grains
"Adequate intake of dietary fiber is associated with digestive health and reduced risk for heart disease, stroke, hypertension, certain gastrointestinal disorders, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers. According to consumer research, the public is aware of the benefits of fiber and most people believe they consume enough fiber. However, national consumption surveys indicate that only about 5% of the population meets recommendations, and inadequate intakes have been called a public health concern. "

I'm a 62 year old vegan and I feel really good every day. I have none of the problems that my non vegan friends suffer from. One has high blood pressure, one has COPD, others have arthritis and need joints replaced. I also look 10 years younger I'm told. Never going back to being a carnist 👍
I'm so glad to see more medical professionals going vegan! I'm really glad he tells all his patients about the benefits of eating a whole foods plant-based diet. We need more like him!
Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
A really great talk, thank you. Actually I believe food, exercise, good relations and Faith goes a long way!!!
@Deb Miller,yes the honest ones.
You spelled "indoctrinated" wrong.
clearly it was sufficient enough for you to understand, catch up and move on...
Great interview with the doctor! Congrats to him and his wife for making the change to go Vegan. 🍇🍏🥒🍉🍊🍋
Incredible interview. In awe of his 7 days fast, and his daily eating habits. Lightly steamed greens are so good, they taste amazing by themselves. Steamed Japanese purple sweet potatoes are especially delicious.
I have learned a lot in this video, thank's VeganLinked ! Vegan for 6 years after cancer and and I feel great !
That’s great news. :)
Congratulations on your recovery!
Awesome 👍🏻
Fabulous interview! Dr. Harrison’s kindness and humility really shine through. He is an inspiration!
Great interview.I’ve been plantbased 8 years now I’m nearly 70 and honestly you leave the meat and dairy eaters behind in health and fitness and overall well being
Totally
Thank you for making this public testimony! 👏 I also tiptoed out of fish after "Eating Ourselves to Extinction". I'm a 3x Cr surviver, w/my first two Dx (34 & 36yo) treated @ MDA in Houston. Surgery, chemo, radiation, & a new diagnosis within 6 months. The third time I sought help with a functional Dr and the learning began! Sustaining on living foods promotes life 💚

Thank you for sharing this! We have many plant-based cardiologist these days, but we need more plant-based oncologists!
Certainly one of the most humble oncologists I've heard interviewed. His openness to change was wonderful. Change after decades is difficult, usually met with resistance, but he embraced his. Thanks for the interview Vegan Linked!
What a gentleman and he made all the right recommendations on movies and books! It’s music to my ears to hear a medical professional recommending these lifestyle changes! 🌱
Need to find some in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia 🙏
I'm pretty sure I wrecked my stomach beyond raw foods. More like nursing home food here. It doesn't matter though, veganism is easy and im never hungry, never put on weight, never worry about calories or fat or anything. I stuff my face full of delicious food and don't get why people think it's ok to eat dead animals. That was an especially interesting interview from a medical perspective. 💖
Same with me. Vegan. Eat so much WFPB food and never gain weight!!!
I eat as much as I want whole food plant-based and I lost weight, now trying to eat more to gain a little back!
@@susanfabrican2244 ... Remember that the starches we eat in a plant based diet are still a lot less calorie dense than what we used to eat when we ate a lot of processed, fatty, oily slimy foods, but eating more starches is recommended by people who want to put on weight. Being slender and muscular is a good thing. Working out, and putting on muscle is what gives our body shape. Are you sure you're underweight? or might need to eat more often, and put on those shapely long muscles? Talking to myself here too. Lol
@@smallfootprint2961 I do need to eat more overall. In fact I’m walking my dog right now and I’m hungry! Going to go home and eat! And I do want fuller stronger muscles, and that will add some weight. 🌱

Dr Harrison you look so good and that is reflective of your plant-based eating. It pushes back the clock of time
This November will be 4 years vegan for me, I have absolutely no doubt that going WFPB vegan not only saved my life but also improved my quality of life by ten fold. Best and cheapest prescription I have ever taken. WFPBV doesn't treat the symptoms, it treats the cause.
So often the treatment of symptoms leads to other, possibly even more deadly disease and the side effects of prescription drugs were debilitating for me. 4 years ago I was on 7 different prescription medications, today I take zero.
Wow!!! Awesome 👏🏻
Wow! Congratulations to you 👏👏. What do you eat for b/f , lunch and dinner if you don’t mind sharing please thanks.
That’s wonderful! Are you salt, oil and sugar free? Thanks.
That's great. Did you come off high blood pressure and cholesterol meds?
@@realrosesforever3847 Yes, I haven't taken one Rx in over 3 years and every six months I get my labs done along with a stress test, enzyme test and EKG, all tests come back back in normal range. I have my B12 and D levels checked as well, both are in the normal range despite taking no supplements. It took 9 months after starting WFPBV diet before my cardiologist pulled me off all BP and cholesterol meds. Sadly it was a struggle to find a doctor that had the knowledge and experience in healing through Whole-food plant-based nutrition even in the Bay Area where I live, it was difficult and I only found the one I use by accident and my insurance would not cover her visits because she was not in network so my first few visits were out of pocket but now my new insurance does pay for it. I really wish there were more doctors practicing WFPB healing because it works and doesn't cost a lot of money.
Great video. I’m working my way towards VEGAN. ☘️
veganlinked.com/govegan/
I went vegan for ethical reasons but the health benefits are undeniable. I thought I was in good shape because I exercised regularly and ate a “balanced” diet. I was a little overweight, had joint pain, asthma, and a fair amount of stress anxiety from a demanding career. The first 2 weeks were hard as my body went through a detox but after that everything changed all at once. In 3 months of going vegan my energy levels were off the charts, my sleep was better than ever, the extra weight melted, and my body reshaped, I noticed more mental clarity, and the biggest improvement is my asthma symptoms almost completely disappeared. And now my career and life is more demanding than ever and I have no anxiety. Like this man, I wish I’d been vegan from a baby. Did I miss meat? Yes, I missed certain meats for quite awhile but I just couldn’t bring myself to partake in that lifestyle anymore. Now if I smell any meat cooking it turns my stomach. I feel the vegan diet has completely transformed my body and has also improved my physical and mental health. My medical tests are great and I’m rarely ever sick. I come from a long line of family, on both sides, who die from cancer and heart disease way too early, and most become type 2 diabetic - and all heavy meat eaters. I love my family but it is difficult listening to them whine about all their ailments and daily pain and how limited they are as they shovel lots of meat into their mouths, all the while telling me how lucky I am that I have good genes and must have been switched at birth. And when I fill my plate they tell me how unhealthy I eat because I don’t get enough protein. 🙄 And the hilarious thing is when I bring dishes to family dinners, mine are the first to disappear. The whole food, plant based diet has come a long way and the food can be amazing and so fun to cook. There are some great, non-preachy people on UA-cam who share amazing recipes for those who want to try. Just search “ whole food plant based” and you are sure to find some dishes that will make you drool. If you are looking for a way to feel so much better, give this at least a month. Get past the detox phase and your world will change and you will continue to improve. Whatever diet you choose, please do it as healthy as possible because life is a gift and should be lived at its fullest and not being miserable in our bodies.
You are so spot on the way! Beautiful testimony, thank you for sharing. You would be so perfect to interview! Let me know if you'd like that and thank you for being so introspective, candid, mindful, and compassionate. Best wishes with your family! You're the perfect role model. They may appear confusing but in time I imagine and hope they will learn over time and through your tenacity to move vegan forward.
A great story, thank you for sharing. I have been vegan for over 50 years, have been totally healthy over this time and have taken no medication to this day, unlike people I know of my age who have multiple medical prescriptions.
I haven't eaten any meat since 1986 and my yearly wellness exam has never detected protein deficiency.
Of course! 🤣 ❤
I'm curious, are you vegan?
What a humbling interview and good for you for informing all your patients that there are other ways to eat and achieve health...cancer is nasty and we should always focus on prevention...koodos to you Dr Harrison
Thank you Jeff for another awesome interview. This doctor was humble yet also very motivating.
such a nice doctor and i hope his message will be more tolerated down south soon! ^^
Super happy to see this interview! We need more doctors like this ❤
interesting interview, we need more doctors like him!
Wonder man and so good to see his humility. I have been vegan for almost 2 years and just completed one of the toughest bike fondo rides in North America. 122 kms uphill into 60 km headwinds. Thanks to my whole food plant based diet i completed the race with flying colours. 🌱
How lucky are the people in Gadson AL to have such a wonderful intelligent doctor !
Great interview, very inspiring, learned a lot as usual.
Thank you Vegan Linked for these intelligent,inspiring interviews !
Been there done that and it works. Not over night, if you have been eating wrong for decades it will take time, step by step it does repair your damaged body.
I've been 9 years vegan this month and I'm doing just fine.
5 1/2 years vegan for me! BEST DECISION I EVER MADE! I’m 62. No health issues. No covid!!!
56 years for me! I don't even have a doctor 😎 .... people around me are getting joint replacements, looking old, aching and tired. It's embarrassing to not be like them sometimes.
Awesome, where do you live? I want to interview you!
Incredible, well done .
I’m 63. I don’t have a doctor either! Vegan for 7 yrs. Best decision I ever made. I too feel like it’s my reward for not engaging in the slaughter of animals. No need in 2023. There is a vegan version for everything now!!!
Great Interview! feels amazing to see more and more people realizing vegan is the right way to live on this planet. So glad we have this channel, lots of love ❤️
What a pleasant lovely man. I really enjoyed this interview. Great teacher as well. I bet his patients greatly benefit from just being in his presence, Absolutely delightful.
Thank you for this. I have been on board for over 7 years. Great to hear another doctor that has made the transition.
Great interview! Thanks for your efforts!
What a terrific, humble doctor.
❤❤❤ I became Vegan on 06.02.2020
Kale yeah!
I also believe that eating the right food lets the body heal itself. The body is always trying to heal itself. If you give it plant foods, that is where all the nutrients are, you'll relieve the struggle the body goes through to get rid of all the poisons people eat in their foods. Keep it simple and stay with whole foods, remembering that the whole plant based foods also have the best nutrition.
Yes! ❤
I learned this from the church I belong to. Seventh day Adventist have been teaching plant based diet for over 150 years.
Oh the eight great doctors, plant food being just one of them, then there is trusting in God, Enough rest and sleep, Lots of water, Sunshine, Temperance, Pure Air, Exercise. Who knows better what's good for our bodies than our Maker - our Creator God? And what food we need He gave immediately after creating us! In Genesis 1:29. Surely He loves us!
@@linn3040 Amen!!
Excellent interview!! So encouraging
Great interview, the best decision I've ever made was going plant-based.
Great interview! Keep lighting candles ❤
A great show of yours Doctor,
And a great questions were put by the host ,
Thanks Doctor and the host ,
Awsome conversation! 👈💚🌱💪✌️
Thank you very much 👏💜
Great work Dr. Harrison- keep it up!
Thanks Dr Lowndes Harrison for sharing your thoughts and opinions. The independently funded and peer reviewed research supports your claims.
Mr. Blair M. Phillips - Canada - Retired -
Thank you for this 🙏🏾
Love this interview ❤️
Focusing on my habits and not my goals is exactly how I’m making this work. 💚 That’s excellent advice. I’ve tried in the past but was rigid and counted everything! Then inevitably I would fall off. Now I just make sure the next choice is a good one and avoiding alcohol has really helped me to choose good habits too.
Fantastic to listen to all this great information
Great and inspiring interview. I would like to suggest that we discontinue the use of the term Vegan and refer to the diet as "Plants Only " says it all
Mushrooms and algae to tho
Joe B I agree with you because vegan is not a diet it is a philosophy.
Plant based leaves it open for interpretation, I always think it suggests mostly plants,but possibly could include animal products, plants only sounds good to me !
@@VeganLinked you are correct but 99% of meat eaters don't know that.
Sometimes it’s best not to say anything. Some people get really defensive and angry when you say that you are vegan or plant based. There have been times I wished that I kept my mouth shut 🤫 one time a girl had a screaming fit, saying that her daddy was a cattle rancher and it was All My Fault that he was losing so much money in his business. I wanted to crawl under a rock and hide. 😬
@@ironrose888 if vegans don't speak up for justice for innocent kind sentient beings then who will.
When you know about the ANIMAL HOLOCAUST you can't un-know it, we have a responsibility to speak up and let others know what is going on.
Being vegan is not about us, it is about the Animals.
Always, speak up for the voiceless.
No excuse for Animal Abuse !
Thanks. 2 years vegan and i never felt so cardio and recovery... cycling everyday several ride i cant stop help lol... puhsup used to be 20 now its 200 , i have to force myself to not injury
plant based is optimal asfk
I saw "Eating Ourselves to Extinction" as well. Mind blowing!
I'd love to hear more from him about the spiritual aspect that he didn't have time to go into! 😊
I did a follow up interview with him recently but we didn't go there. Maybe next time...
This is wonderful information thankyou very much 🌺
My wife was vegetarian for 35 years, mostly vegan for last 5 yrs. She died of cancer at age 66. Didn't smoke or drink, not overweight, and physically active. Many people eating a typical NA diet are in their 80s and 90s. I've got to think genetics and the hand you were dealt is by far the biggest factor
Sorry to hear for your loss. Vegetarian tends to not be very healthy at all. And cancer usually starts many years, even decades before we know. Vegan isn't really a diet, it is a philosophy. But it happens to be the healthiest, most protective way if eating according to the totality of evidence is vegan, and that is a whole plant food exclusive diet consisting of beans, greens, grains, fruits, veggies, mushrooms, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices; and a variety of each. But this seems most protective when done from birth. Even still, there are many others variables at play such as stress, lack of rest, proper sun exposure, environmental toxins, genetics, etc. We can't look at any one person and deduce much beyond that isolated individual. We can only do our best to make the most of our inevitably limited time on this planet. It sounds like your wife was a very compassionate loving person and did the best she could for herself and others.
Sorry for your loss really, but she was eating dairy for most of her life and that has the most potent carcinogen of all, casein. Genetics play a role but food pulls the trigger
Big hug from France. I like to read though comments and your message touched me very much.
French people are not vegetarians
What a good vibe has this doctor, and I give you the best quote : People want to hear good things about their bad habits ( is not my),I became vegetarian in Argentina in 1973, believe me I was really alone, it wasn't easy, on top of that all this ignorant doctors told me I was going to die for lack of protein, jejejeje. Became vegan in 2003 after I find out first what they do to this animals to extract milk (insane) and also how bad dairy is for your health ( the only animal product I was ingesting was cheese). I turn 67 next month and never took any pill besides ibuprofen and some antibiotics., so I am still alive and I probe all this ignorant doctors to be wrong.
I have noticed over many years that the smartest people are figuring out that the meat and dairy are not good for you. My family was so insistent that I eat meat and I have gone back and forth eating meat but I only felt good is when I was vegan. Well, now they are all dead and I really miss them, even my younger sister died. I’m 67 and they died when they were in their early sixties.
Wow, damn, sad to hear this. Your story can help others!
Before I had chemo 10 years ago I was told to eat well before and during chemo. At that time I was full omnivore. First day of chemo I had a big double cheeseburger for lunch while the chemo IV was going. Several hours later I was extremely sick and lost the cheeseburger, along with everything else in my system. That was the last cheeseburger I ate for probably 6 months. Of course now I know to stay away from for many reasons.
Thank you!!
Great interview
Thank you Doctor for this video. So inspiring, and truthful.
Great Video. Please have him back soon!
I literally sent him an email this morning. I'm hoping he will follow up but I may have inundated him with what I want to talk about.
I`m sixty seven and have been vegan for over ten yrs and feel healthy and active for my age. In my twenties i ate a very high processed meat and dairy diet and suffered with various regular bouts of infections, plus weight gain, Asthma and IBS. Within weeks of living vegan and eating lots of veg and fruit, all of the ailments id suffered with went away and has stayed away. My weight for my age and height is ideal so no extra pressure on my joints. I make sure i have B12 from yeast flakes and yeast extract and get my omega from nuts and seeds. My immune system is also at its best and strongest too. There has been no negative downsides to this lifestyle at all and i feel as though i have been rewarded with good health for not paying for the death and cruelty of innocent animals in the meat dairy and egg industries.
Is your nooch fortified with folic acid?
If all doctors were like him (both in personality and in outlook on health) I wouldn’t be avoiding doctors as much as I am.
Check out today's release :) Dr Breakey!
A wonderful interview from someone who is honest and seems to genuinely care about people.
Great video, we are vegan for many reasons.
He's so jolly! Great interview
What an adorable man. Great interview!
We should be doing a follow-up soon
Very enjoyable! What a fun, intelligent guy. These interviews are outstanding.
Wish more of these propogandists for the vegan way were aware of T. Colin Campbell's work .
very honest doctor. thank you
great interview, so glad I am vegan plant based!
Awesome video. Get healthy. Stop animal products. Go vegan
Thank you Lowdnes!!! So great to hear your story from the start!
It's so awesome seeing you here! Thanks for watching and commenting. Hope Plant Stock went well over the weekend ❤
It is so great to see you here. Your Dad helped me while I was in the hospital. I emailed and he called me, personally, while I was lying in that hospital. I believe that I am alive today thanks to speaking with your Dad, Dr Caldwell Esselstyn. He has my "undying" gratitude. ❤
Interesting story.
Put all veggies you don't like in a blender make a green smoothie
Love this.. If only I knew when.. I started at 70 ..
This guy is wonderful!
Another fabulous interview! It blows my mind that doctors are not educated about nutrition.
Deliberately...how could it not be........big pharma profits from sick people...
I just went off meat over 6 years ago. I’ve been vegan since then. My blood tests a few months ago came back perfect.
I could never go back to meat.
My GP told me the ONLY way to get over your Tachycardia is to become a Vegan. I took his advice and my symptoms went away and I feel better at 71 than I did at 17! I'll never go back to Meat, Dairy, Fish, Eggs or Oil.
I’ve been a vegetarian for 25 + years, I’m 60 now and feel great, no need for extra vitamins. I meet quite a lot of stupid opponents and I ask myself why? Why are meat lovers so concerned about us veggies? Maybe because they know we’re right and they just can’t jump the steak. I started because I’m a fighter for animals rights and well being, the rest is personal profit. Great interview! My husband died from colon cancer and he loved meat sandwiches 😢
Wow, sorry to hear about your loss, please let me interview you. Where are you? If you're interested please let me know!
Don’t miss Nutritional Facts Dr. Greger. Best ever.
There seems to be an awakening amongst the medical profession that food can play a role in our health, who would have thought, lol.
the energy is realy crazy- and so less pain, If you dont do it you will not know.
i hope your get your flowers vegan linked!!! amazing work.
Thank you, I don't know what that means, get my flowers, but thanks :)
@@VeganLinked it kinda means you get your well deserved love and praise from the world. :) cheers
Wow, I love your channel, great interviews! I work at a hospital and I have been vegan for over 12 years and I wish I knew more doctors that promote plant based. This gives me hope.
Sweet, where are you located?
Did you ever see a hospital full of vegans????
Wow! A saint messaging about whole food plant diet. I’ve watched Forks Over Knives and What the Health. Been a vegan for 3 months after listening to Ed Winters on a Rich Roll podcast. It took me a while decide to lose dairy but I feel so much better!
Loved this!!! Provided additional information. Thank you 👍🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you! To help make sure your broccoli sprouts don't rot only put one tablespoon into the mason jar, and rinse and drain well after the initial soak. Rinse well 3 times a day with fresh water and drain well each time. You've got this 💚🥦
I'm scared! 🤣
more to food like stress or being un-ease is the number one cause of dis-ease. Let us avoid stress and choose our battles well Renew our mind, have a downtime and have a quiet time with the Lord and His word.
Broccoli sprouts have Even more nutrients its awesome. I prefer microgreens. They are awesome
That's ageism. Not cool.
😉
I never ate microgreens. How do you prepare them? Do you cook them?

Good question. I'm trying to avoid gluten. Does anyone have an answer?
Oh and I honestly believe because I was rather healthy active vegan to begin with, that my cancer was so small and treatable. I think my diet did keep this thing slow growing too and thankfully it didn’t go anywhere else. So I do think diet does play a roll. In my case it helped me keep this thing in check. My body makes too much estrogen I guess (and no I don’t blame soy for that even though I’m avoiding it these days). I think in my case, the cause was the pollution and environment, neighbors fertilizers and pesticides, or the water even.
How are you going to sort the endometrial thickening? Have you had bone density check?
I had early stage breast cancer; lumpectomy; radiation; resisted taking tamoxifen; then took it. Normal uterine wall thickness went to 12mm with tamoxifen; ultrasound reports questioned tamoxifen use - doctors talk hysterectomy but I ask what about foods. They’re not interested. Stopped tamoxifen immediately.
Trying to find integrative nutritional doctor in Brisbane Australia
Have liver issues, excess weight which I have been reducing (89kg to 71 kg); drastically reduced alcohol and meats except fish over past 12 months - my previous lifestyle is catching up with me but doctors Do not treat each issue together but they all relate somehow!
I am already wfpb. What the best way to know if I’m getting enough protein? What is the optimal protein levels for 55yo woman? I’m active. I’m a cancer patient in remission. I work full time. I’m 135lb and 5 foot 2 inches.
You may want to ask your lifestyle medicine professional what is best for you specifically. It's my understanding. 8 grams per kilogram of your weight. But it's also my understanding we don't need to worry about protein as long as we are simply eating a proper variety of whole plant foods
