NutritionFacts.org Dr. Greger, please go on the Joe rogan experience pod cast, recently James Wilks was on it defending the game changers documentary against a so-called nutrition expert and he actually did great, but you could just completely throw out any misrepresentation of the documentary.
This new format is absolutely brilliant. Beautiful, smooth, clear. There is not a single thing I'd change as a designer and past motion graphics editor. Visually those are definitely the best produced nutrition videos on UA-cam, if not everywhere.
@Gold Gold What he is saying in this video doesn't mesh as well with the printed studies being shone. I don't mean in substance, but in word choice, which is disconcerting when you're trying to keep up with his rapid delivery and scan the reference sections provided on screen. I prefer reading the transcripts! At least I can go to them to get clear on the content. (Transcripts available on nutritionfacts.org, for those not familiar.)
Wow! The news about flax just keeps getting better! Started taking ground flax seed everyday 6 months ago, & I feel great. 7 years a vegan, 69 years old & no health problems to date! Thank you so much!
Hi Skip I’m just starting out as a Vegan. 95% there. Do you take vitamins or supplements? I take Nutritional Yeast with B-12 and a Multivitamin: Centrum Silver. Thanks.
@@Dhspat hey Patrick! Congrats on choosing to eat the most beneficial diet on the planet! Just make sure you stick with whole foods. The more something is processed, the worse it is for you, even if it is plant source. I take B12, D3, C, and Magnesium supplements. May you have a New year filled with abundance! 😀😀😀

Dr. Greger I am an 81 year old male, the number one item on my bucket list is to get healthy before I die. Last January I was taking 13 different meds in the morning and about 6 meds at night 365 days a year.I don't take any now. My maximum weight was 333 lbs. I now weight about 220 lbs.I still have about 60 lbs of fat to loose. I consider losing the weight less important than getting rid of the meds. A few years ago I went to a lecture on the China study at Loma Linda University which started me on my journey to get seriously healthy. I had tried all kinds of programs, pills, products, and potions but it wasn't until last January that I discovered a way traverse chronic health issues. I adopted a Whole Food Plant Based Lifestyle. Eliminating all dairy, meat, salt sugar and oil 99% of the time. I haven't got to 100% yet but I've come a long way from the China Study lecture. Here is my problem, I can't get enough sleep. I have to pee about six times a night. Can you help me and others who may have the same problem?
Congratulations on your achievements so far! You will have a better chance of response if you post this in the comments section of this video on nutritionfacts.org. Dr. Greger rarely responds directly (where would he find the time?!), but there are qualified people (doctors, other medical professionals, well-versed lay persons) who may make suggestions. There's too much uninformed comment on youtube. On the website you could also search for videos and blogs on 'sleep', 'frequent urination' and such. I'm with you on waking to go to bathroom several times a night! Best wishes!
I congratulate you on starting this switch and would love for you to share your improvements with the world ie start a blog get on Instagram and chronicle your journey. Making changes like this in your age bracket is an inspiration for others. I’m not a doctor but I have read a lot and made healthier living my hobby. If I may lovingly suggest being patient with your body it has a lot to undo from many years of ingesting harsh foods and still being bombarded with toxins daily. I also want to emphasize eating is a stressor on the system, our bodies utilize 50% or more for digestion, so putting a break in there of a day or two of only ingesting liquids is the break that could help the system utilize all its energy to expel unwanted things from the body. A form of detoxing. One great tool to help is juicing, pure celery juice is one in particular that helps the body reduce inflammatory invaders in the body. Aloha
@@giselafiege7169 Thanks for your kind words, I'll take you up on your celery juice suggestion but not the blog, if Printikin, Ornish, Campbell, Greger and McDougall and hundred others are having a difficult time getting their scientific backed facts across my story would be just more preaching to the choir. What will cause a difference, is to get rid of our current social/economic system which worked in the past but is not only outdated but is the cause of the worlds major problems and is unsustainable. We live in a finite world with finite resources and we cannot afford to continue to do what is not working and expect positive results. I would like to see Dr. Greger make sure some of his charitable donations go to these two organizations, The Zeitgeist Movement and the Venus Project. I believe if the whole food, plant based community and these two organizations hook up, it would be the tipping point for the dramatic change in making the world a better place for all of us, don't you agree?
Been eating ground flaxseeds everyday since the daily dozen came out!! Great to know it is a powerful inflammatory reducer!! Thank you for all the work you do Dr. Greger, as well as your elite team of researchers. P.S, your new book is fantastic!!!
Each morning I take two heaping tablespoons of ground flaxseeds in a glass, mixed with cinnamon, add unsweetened organic soy milk, stir, let it sit for a minute or two and then drink this delicious treat. This has been my routine now for a few years. I love it. The second part of my breakfast is fresh fruit, coffee, and Chinese green tea.
@@isaac_k98 I thought his conclusion from that video was that steeping Chinese green tea was fine, just don't consume the powered whole-food form (matcha) which carries with it the heavy metal contamination. I could be wrong though.
@@chrisdeanjames2898 amounts please! I'd actually like to try this and could use some guidance on how much of each to start experimenting to my own tastes

@@bobrik335 veganism isn't about what you eat; it's about the harm caused in getting it. If you acquired the animal products without causing harm, then it's vegan. For instance, eating roadkill is vegan.

Really an excellent piece of research. One of the best he's done. Large sample size combined with a detailed explanation of the mechanics of the process. Much better than a correlation or observational study.
OMG I love how Dr. Greger presents nutrition science like it's a review of the most spectacular, surprising and thrilling movie of the year. The new visuals are amazing!

For those of you thinking he recommended a certain amount a day on this particular video, he didn't. It's in his Daily Dozen which is only 1 tablespoon. That said if you ever are not sure what the doc has said on any of his videos, if you go to the web page featuring the video you just watched, you can access the transcript under the video. In this case you can access the transcript here: nutritionfacts.org/video/benefits-of-flax-seeds-for-inflammation/ Here's a link to the full topic of high blood pressure: nutritionfacts.org/topics/high-blood-pressure/ In addition, you can also find his sources with links to the original research articles. My thoughts, however, is you don't rely upon a singular means to lower blood pressure or lower cholesterol or whatever ails you, it's the totality of all that you do. All your foods, inclusion of exercise, proper sleep, hydration, and attention to your mental health be that through meditation, spiritual connections, and/or social interactions. Healthy people have an overall healthy life and that goes beyond just what you put in your mouth.
@@deconcoder Actually, though sunlight is good for most people in the proper time frame, nitric oxiide is a product of several things such as arginine, oxygen and the product of nitrates in vegetables. nutritionfacts.org/topics/nitric-oxide/ for a skin cancer patient or those who abused their sun privileges in their youth, they need vegetables, not UV exposure.
1 tbsp is only 7 grams and the studies seem to use 30 grams.... rather than guess, can’t we get it straight from the doctor himself? Surely, 1 tbsp is not correct....more is always better, right? Doctor?
@@deathstar168 -- His recommendation is 1 tablespoon, down from 2. It's in the Daily Dozen. I forget why he lowered it to 1 tablespoon but there are other foods that lower bp too. Again, it's totality, not just one ore two things that you eat or do that make for the best health.
I love what you have shared by all your research and books and videos and blog posts! Would you consider doing the type of book you just did on "How Not To Diet" with a book on inflammation? I think it would be a huge help. Thank you for all your work! All the best, Scott
I love flaxseeds, had no idea they would be so powerful. I wonder if hemp seeds are hiding a secret as well? I love your channel Dr Greger... always so relaxing and you always have a positive mindset with data driven content
I'll start adding a tablespoon of ground flaxseed to the smoothie I take to the gym every day. Thank you Dr Greger. I started watching your videos 5 months ago. My blood pressure was 200/120. I was picking my prescription at the pharmacy but I wasn't taking them. Now my blood pressure is 130/85. I still have more to do. It wouid probably be a lot better if I was following your prescribed whole plant based vegan diet all the time. I've only done around 70% whole plant based. When I get myself to completely cut out meat, I'll probably some bigger strides forward. When I eat junk food, I always add cooked kale, spinach or arugula with it. I drink a lot less alcohol and I'm working on eliminating it completely. Dr Greger saved my life. My blood pressure used to be so high , my doctor would say I can have a heart attack or stroke when I leave her office. Thank God I didn't disclose to her that I wasn't taking those damn blood pressure medications.
Great video format I feel like Dr Greger is lecturing to us in a classroom now; very cool. Thanks for sharing all this research with us. I have been a fan of the Nathan Pritikin program since 1977, and Dr. Greger takes the Pritikin concept and more, to the next highest level. Great job.
Mr G -- Anyone listening to you speak notice how convinced and enthusiastic - your not boring 🙀OK, Half of your audience are over 50 or even elderly. Many are struggling from hearing loss like me. Please slow down a bit. You are a dynamic speaker and great speaker, we don't want to miss anything.
I preordered a copy of “How not to diet” and it came yesterday! I’m so excited to read it! I’m only on page 42, but already so much great information! Thank you Dr Greger!
It's always good to get great information about our good habits! Taking one tablespoon of flaxseed per day here. Goes well with my morning oatmeal. :-)
I have been watching your videos for a few years now and I love the new style! Also great information, and I would love another updated video on the best foods or herbs/spices for sports recovery if you ever have time! :)
is it true that you should ground your flaxseed, put it in the fridge, and use it within a week? I heard that when you don't do this a lot of the nutritional value goes away
@@190Michael190 it's less expensive to buy the seeds and easy to grind in any cheap coffee grinder and use as needed. Dont grind them up all at once. If you buy them already ground up keep them in the fridge as they have a short shelf life and lose their nutritional value guicker. The seeds can be stored anywhere and last a long time.
I have a blueberry smoothie every morning. I was adding a spoon of ground flax to it every night and would drink it in the morning. I began having digestive problems over several months and felt tired. I stopped the flax and have felt better. I still recommend the dried blueberries though and thank Dr Greger for his information on them in the past.
Love me some roasted flax as a snack. Easy to pack in a small container and great to stave off hunger between meals. Nutritionfacts = the best learning ressource for a healthy life - thx!!!
I M A QYN No, but Joe is a great interviewer and conversationalist... he has invited several other professionals to discuss their expertise to a wider audience who may not otherwise have come across said expert on their own. I echo narlycharley’s idea👍
I generally like Joe, but he's pretty adversarial to anything plant based. I'm also very grateful for Dr Greger, but I think his personality would be a turn off for Joe's audience especially if it's their first encounter with Greger.
Love the graphics ... you should have a playlist that just has some of these graphics on them that make a point. Whoever is making these they are very talented.
After watching this video, I realized what enormous benefit flax seeds provide by simply countering needless inflammation. If physiological aging is a process permeated by inflammation. we therapeutically can interrupt (manage) our own inflammatory response, and minimize the entirely avoidable damage many attribute to merely growing older.

LOVE the new format!!!! (Although I miss the smoking mice enhancement bits sometimes...😉😉)
30 grams of milled flax seed per day. Or three tablespoons, according to cronometer.
is it true that you should ground your flaxseed, put it in the fridge, and use it within a week? I heard that when you don't do this a lot of the nutritional value goes away
@@190Michael190 i just pour them in my stew and chew them
If you don’t grind them they don’t help much. Yes they go bad quickly.
I use an old coffee grinder for spices and will grind flax seeds on an as-needed basis. I never store them in the fridge.
@@190Michael190 it's less expensive to buy the seeds and easy to grind in any cheap coffee grinder and use as needed. Dont grind them up all at once. If you buy them already ground up keep them in the fridge as they have a short shelf life and lose their nutritional value guicker. The seeds can be stored anywhere and last a long time.
I love this guy.
Liking the new video format !!!
Thank you very much ,..for sharing the benefits of flax seeds..
I would love to see a long term study of the carnivore diet.
love you new book! Had it preordered since months ago :)
I have a blueberry smoothie every morning. I was adding a spoon of ground flax to it every night and would drink it in the morning. I began having digestive problems over several months and felt tired. I stopped the flax and have felt better. I still recommend the dried blueberries though and thank Dr Greger for his information on them in the past.
too much fiber too fast, best to start out with 1 tbspn and chase with a glass of water.
Really liking the new format for the videos!
Thanks Doc! Always add it to my smoothies, oatmeal, pancakes etc.
How did I miss this great video!!!!
Shared. Thank you again.
Second time I’ve watched this video. Pity I can’t give more than one thumbs up 🙂 Thank you very much
Enjoyed the body and facial drama he put with it, too. Love this Doc!
Love this information Doctor. Again love your beard...❤❤❤
Oooo! I like to see you talking Dr. G!
Love me some roasted flax as a snack. Easy to pack in a small container and great to stave off hunger between meals.
Nutritionfacts = the best learning ressource for a healthy life - thx!!!
I'd love for Joe Rogan to get you on his show - that would be a fun watch. I think Joe would be very receptive.
Joe Rogan isn't a doctor and has no credentials.
I M A QYN No, but Joe is a great interviewer and conversationalist... he has invited several other professionals to discuss their expertise to a wider audience who may not otherwise have come across said expert on their own. I echo narlycharley’s idea👍
I generally like Joe, but he's pretty adversarial to anything plant based. I'm also very grateful for Dr Greger, but I think his personality would be a turn off for Joe's audience especially if it's their first encounter with Greger.
I M A QYN Duh, but has a big audience.
@@helloyou. No, he's assassinating people's character that he's not agreeing with.
I like Dr Greger in front of the green-screen better than his office on the treadmill. Had to get that off my chest.
Love the graphics ... you should have a playlist that just has some of these graphics on them that make a point. Whoever is making these they are very talented.
We love you!
Do chia seeds have the same effect? I just subscribed.
I like the videos where you can see Dr Greger
Awesome video! I love the new formate!
After watching this video, I realized what enormous benefit flax seeds provide by simply countering needless inflammation. If physiological aging is a process permeated by inflammation. we therapeutically can interrupt (manage) our own inflammatory response, and minimize the entirely avoidable damage many attribute to merely growing older.
Sweet new intro
