Dr Greger, my husband is 59-years-old. In April of this year he underwent open heart surgery for blocked arteries. He has also been diagnosed pre-diabetic, has diverticulosis, has lupus, has rheumatoid arthritis and hypertension. All of his doctors said diet has little or nothing to do with his diseases and that all his diseases are incurable. After studying you, Dr McDougall, Dr Barnard and Dr Esselstyn, we eliminated red meat and dairy 4 months ago. Two weeks ago we became strict vegans. My husband's angina and shortness of breath are completely gone. He threw away his methotrexate and prednisone. He goes to the gym four hours a week and has lost ten pounds so far. I doubt he will need his lisinopril a year from now. I'm positive he won't need stents down the road. Veganism is nothing short of a miracle.
No coughing fits from Lisinopril
Awesome! 👏👏👏
How is he doing now?
No one gives more factual, evidence-based, useful health information than Dr. Greger. And, he entertains you at the same time. THE BOSS.
This man is doing a HUGE service to humanity!
A True Doctor, not a pill pusher for pharma.
HUUUUUUUUGE
Dr. Michael is a secular saint
Dr Greger is the one who got me to stop eating meat, dairy and eggs. He scares the living f*** out of you with these studies.
Michael Janavel He sure does and now that I know he lives so close I might just try to get a lunch date going with him to pick his brains.
Michael Janavel The poison is in the dose. Eat too much kale is bad for you too. Lots of studies that show some animal sources in the diet are healthy.
Good for you. :)
Michael Janavel Same here. His video 'Uprooting the leading causes of death' convinced me to go vegan 13 months ago. Before i went vegan i was 20kg over weight and had prediabetes. Eating a high carb low fat whole foods diet fixed all of that :)
+skillfuldabest nice!
Dr. Michael Greger has the BEST nutrition presentations I have ever seen!
He should win a Nobel prize for public health awareness.... but the Swedes consume way too many animal products for that to ever happen.
Thank you Dr. Greger!
Your work will become legendary!
In a world where people read less and less, and where videos can better educate than books, you are a nutritional Rock Star!
Please don´t be so ignorant, Sweden has nearly twice as many vegetarians per capita than USA and also generally consumes less animal products. There is no Nobel prize for public health awareness, only for medicine, which is given to people who have contributed to important medical discoveries. While this presentation is great, Greger is just quoting different scientific research that supports his theories and haven't done all the hard work himself.
“I don’t mind dying, I just don’t want it to be my fault”, couldn’t have possibly said it any better❤️
Another awesome video. Been eating a whole foods, plant-based vegan diet for almost a year and a half now and I've never felt better. Not only for the physical benefits but knowing that I'm reducing my carbon foot print and giving animals a fighting chance. Going vegan is the best thing to do for yourself, for others, and for the planet.
Cristina Basile AGREED! It's a WIN-WIN-WIN situation...our health wins, the animals win and our planet wins! I'm 57 about to turn 58 and feel awesome every single day...went 100% plant based 5 years ago. LOVE this way of living and eating!
Cristina Basile
Yes Cristina, in support of your mind set about being a vegan and the power of nutrition to help our bodies heal, most people don't know that seeds have up to 30% more nutrition in the seed than in the plant or fruit. So I invite you to take a few minutes to research this one seed formula that was about 20 years of research to formulate. Dr Leonard's main reason for creating this formula was to help children coming from chemo and radiation. Google ( seed nutrition recover health now ) I have taking this formula because 18 months ago I had extreme chronic left shoulder pain, which I no longer have. Thank you so much Dr Greger for your dedication and your passion for empowering people for better health naturally.
***** Just say no. I don't eat junk food and don't even think about eating it anymore.
Just be sure you eat enough calories throughout the day. Don't deny yourself starches as desired - just try to keep it low fat, whole food, and plant based (e.g. all the brown rice you want).
***** drown yourself in oatmeal! Organic overnight oats (no instant, no 2 minutes oats) + water in a blender. Add organic whole raw sugar or maple sirup. 300-500 g raw oats per day (equals about 2 liter / 0.5 US gal of oat drink). Will cure all your cravings :)
+Cristina Basile I have yet to see an unbiased vegan. All vegans eat raw vegetables and fruit based out of the concern for animals.
I was just thinking about a t-shirt with Dr. Greger on it. Most people would be thinking "why does he have a picture of a middle-aged bald guy on his t-shirt?" while the vegans would be thinkings "Hell yeah, rock star!".
Peter John Absolutely!!!
Peter John I would totally buy this shirt!!
Peter John with the *'HOW NOT TO DIE'* logo !
Peter John I'll take two!
That's very bright idea indeed :-)
My mom quit smoking and went vegan at the same time 2 years ago. She lost weight and gained so much energy. She's healthier she's ever been.
I'm so happy for your mom!!
Fdd
What an incredible man. His videos are SO underrated. I wish I could get all the non-vegans I know to watch this.
Lol I almost tried liking this comment twice.
Serena Watson-Follett also silly vegans that think that eating vegan (correctly) isn't healthier than eating non vegan ("correctly")
Serena Watson-Follett I send this talk to all my friends and family!! all we can do is share the info, but it's up to others to receive it and learn something from it!!
I was eating a typical bodybuilder diet. lots of eggs, meats, protein powders. I thought it was healthy! That's what the bioscience out there says to do. Unfortunately I fell for it. Everyday was a struggle. yeah I was big and strong but I felt like crap! Extremely moody and tired all the time. I had to drink caffeine constantly. Also my joints hurt and it was difficult to simply go up stairs.
Weighting in at 275lbs I finally came to my senses. Did a complete 180 with my diet.
Fruits, Veg, beans, rice,lentils, bread is the answer. The food is delicious and I've been losing fat effortlessly. The best part though is the clarity and energy that I now have.
I went it without much knowledge. I didn't even know "plant based" was a thing. These videos are a great asset to learning more about this new lifestyle.
Thanks Doc!
+John Jury WAY to go! This lifestyle agrees with me too! At 58, I feel great every single day! I donate blood 4 or 5 times each year too & have never been turned away!
What does "plant-based" mean?
+TenHanded, it means you eat as many WHOLE vegetables and fruits, legumes, whole grains nuts and seeds in their natural form as possible...little or NO highly processed junk foods....no meats/chicken/fish/dairy.
valnaples - Thankyou. Sorry for sounding stupid, but does "whole" just mean like a carrot or apple as they are? And how many would I need to eat per day?
Go to "Forks over Knives" for meal plans.
If there is one person that can cut through this ridiculous world of nutritional advertising, lies, pseudoscience, ego, close-mindedness, and ignorance it is Dr. Greger. Thanks Dr. Greger for all that you give.
Instead of arguing against the opinion of dr Gregor you are doing attack on Gregors personality, that's wrong.
Give some evidence in support of your views instead of using dirty language
@@babbarsher413 No... looks like the other way round. He's praising the guy for being so dedicated to informing us.
Thanks for doing what you do. Every American and especially every doctor should have to watch this.
He's coming to Canada in 2016. Check his speaking tour dates to see if it is a city near you.
I look forward to these every year.

DCWPB review an original joke
Jordan Hancock U 2 salty
Jordan Hancock Seriously why are you getting so angry over a youtube comment, all he did was say he enjoys the doctors lectures.
Go get angry at something that matters.
Jordan Hancock but I never said you were in the Scoliosis Research Society, it would be fine if you were though, thats a great thing to do with your time.
Literally, this guy is a fucking hero!
+Camilla Siig to ME he really is a hero also!
BEST LECTURES IN THE FUCKING GAME

Yes!
I don't mind dying; I just don't want it to be my fault.
Again this year, you have out done yourself. I love these yearly speeches and all the tidbits every day all year long. Thanks for encouraging me to stay in the game.
May God prolong your life and give you more strength to follow your mission.
What god?
I've been an environmentally conscious vegetarian for 8+ years...Dr. Greger took it to a whole other level.I'm vegan now...many thanks. Forks over Knives too. spread the word.
Paul D Dr. GREGER...just gently correcting your spelling of his name....Michael Greger, MD...!
I think you made an innocent and unnecessary mistake. I spelled his name correctly..."Dr. Greger took it to a whole other level.I'm vegan now..". You know...even if I did spell his name wrong, your approach wasn't so gentle...do you teach the 2nd grade or something?
These presentations get me so pumped about the plant-based lifestyle! Thank you, Dr. Greger. You're a shining light in field of nutrition sciences.
This video is amazing I'm changing my diet after I'm done watching this thanks
EveryThingTech Congratulations! YAY!
kudos!
EveryThingTech
Yay! Congrats!
Making the change, it really helps to have a supportive family.
Get your family to see this info too. I didn't expect it but all but one of my close family went plant-based with me! And we're still incredibly happy about the change a year later.
(Although I still have to remind them to eat their greens from time to time.)
Tatti Dorjan that's awesome!
fucking awesome, you can do it !!
I was scouring the internet for random things tonight. It started of with area 51 then the Hubble telescope then JWST. I googled aliens and contemplated our location on a big floating space rock in the middle of nowhere. Browsing the Fermi paradox left me depressed and lonely.I later somehow found this channel. I used to think vegetarians and vegans are idiots and food is food. Eat anything in moderation. Oh how wrong I was.
I've been ill-informed but no anymore. I'm going vegan(I may still eat fish once or twice a week but I'm staying away from anything that comes from cows(including milk),pigs,chickens etc. I'm not doing this to be accepted into some group or adopt a feeling of superiority,thus looking down on other people that do eat meat. I'm doing this for my own well being.
... and of course you are also improving the situation of the animals and the environment. This is a big gift! ;)
+ for animals + environment + ...
Perfect! Wish you the next step to find how you was wrong with prejustice that most of vegans do it due "to be accepted into some group or adopt a feeling of superiority,thus looking down on other people that do eat meat"
I'm with +Marek Volf
ɷɷ Youuuu Wontt Belive Guysss Howww I Losttt Fatt Fast In Justt 3 Weekss Withhhh Thisss Weight Loss Diet Visittt : - t.co/HWXyWN7GBz
He is probably my favorite person on earth
My heart is overwhelmed w / this man's capacity . Here's to All the good Dr's at our hand.
Watching for several years, pissed me off at first, he dosen't like beer. Now he beat me into submission with his big hammer of facts. Doc, glad to have you.
Just watched a presentation from Colin Campbell + this afterwards and that made me realize how good of a presenter Michael Greger actually is.
Dr Greger has changed my entire perspective on nutrition and it will NOT be a stretch to say he has changed my life for the better!!! I'm going to spread this message FAR AND WIDE! My mission as a vegan is to prevent gratuitous suffering due to bad nutrition amongst near and dear!
Your videos keep motivating me to stay vegan and make healthy choices. I can't even explain how much impact they have on me and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Thank you for the great work you do!
this makes me want to cry of happiness. LOVE DR GREGER!!!!
He is my #1 health guru
Fabulous as always! Plants for the win!
Absolutely plant based all tha way every day
Dr greger is amazing.
Here I go again, he's got me to the point I can't stop crying.
I know what I'm getting everyone for Christmas this year! HOW NOT TO DIE lol. Best book title ever.
I look forward to this every year. Dr. Greger is the man.
Those 86 thumbs down are either meat, dairy products owner or corrupted doctors...
"doctors"
Or perhaps people who actually understand science and the profound difference between correlation and causation. This was one of the most biased and agenda driven presentations of nutritional information I have ever watched. Red meat for the vegan faithful.
Richard Hanson awwww sorry you feel personally attacked by facts
Mds
Richard Hanson
You’re metaphor makes no sense. Why would vegans want or consume red meat? Or are you saying this presentation is anathema to vegans like red meat? Or that we can’t accept that this is a biased agenda-driven presentation? Do you know what you’re saying? Look, rather than defending your bacon sandwich or whatever, the best way to see if eating plant based is good for you is to try it! Give it a go and see how you get on. 🌱
Love the huge support you are getting from the crowd now! Well deserved, good job Dr.G
You are changing the world, Doc G. *slowclap*
This presentation can save lives. Excellent info and excellent speaker!
I love this man. Hugs from Argentina :)
This is by far my favorite video on UA-cam every year! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Exceptional work - science - humour - and humanity
9.56 "Why bother quitting smoking if my cheese and ham sandwich is just as bad for me" Haven't laughed myself silly in ages
Most certainly STAYING vegan / plant-based forever.
Dr. Greger is my hero NutritionFacts.org :)
THANK YOU SO MUCH !!! YOU SAVE ALL KINDS OF LIFE ON THIS EARTH :)
So going to buy the book!
+VegKat Gryphon Me too...can't wait to buy that book and then PASS it around to those whom I love!
there is a fucking book??? I'm SO getting this
+hammypie Yep. :) nutritionfacts.org/book/ I think it's going to be a huge one. All the science for a vegan diet in your backpack! :D Thanks to our great broccoli doctor. :)
I can not tell enough how much I LOVE Dr. Greger! I've had a terrible day and his last speech has been the only thing giving me hope and putting a smile upon my face. Thank you SOOO much dear Dr. Greger and his crew and all the vegans out there who are trying to spread this important message! ❤❤❤❤❤ Love you all!!!
You are the greatest, Dr Greger! Thank you for all the hard work.
well I guess this explains my kidney stones.... I used to eat loads of meat and dairy daily.Thank you for taking the time to put together this information its really helped form a solid opinion on my diet choices.
Once again a brilliant lecture! Thank you very much sir!!!!
Dr Gregory for prezzzzz
JamesDCherian OR maybe Surgeon General????
Thank you Dr. Greger and associates.
Just blow my mind! Thank you for the truth and thoughts about controversy from nutrition professionals and the science made...
Dr. Greger is a rock star of the healthy eating world. :)
Well presented. I'm not 100% there with veganism, but finding that the closer I get, the better I feel and look, the better my stats are, and I actually enjoy the food more.
Give it a try for 2 weeks, or even 30 days - and you'll be convinced for life 😉
One of the most important videos in UA-cam!
Thank you, Dr Greger for your passion and diligence to get this vital message across! I have shared this and am happy to see over 67,000 have viewed this since Aug 3. This is awesome! I will take it to heart and hope all others will, too!
+Anna Fisher ooops! OVER 74,000 views now! hee!
This guy is one of my hero's! :)
Thank you Dr Greger. You make the difference
Doctors like this, that are willing to go againts the majority to tell the truth and save lives are such a blessing! Even the fact that his earnings go to charity show his intentions are to help and not to become rich, he is so selfless and an incredible human being! thank you for sharing this information for free, God bless you.
I am a doctor myself, and the majority of doctors agrees on that fruits and veggies are healthy and that meat (especially processed, red meat) is bad for you. There might be some disagreement on just how bad meat is or how strict you should be, but there is a consensus that people are eating too much meat and that they should reduce their intake. So Greg is not going against the majority, basically all doctors are trying to make patients eat more fruits and veggies.
Awesome as always, Doc. Thanks for posting; will be forwarding this to whoever will watch : )
I've beeeeeen waaaaiting for this!!!! It is TIME!
Can't wait til' this years talk!
You are a true inspiration to me Dr Gregor! I will share this with all my friends. I'm guessing none will watch it.
These talks are the equivalent of the Super Bowl for me.
I love Dr. Greger! Very exciting lecture.
I love his style of teaching. He is so informative.
This was amazing and life changing. This video just made me a vegan. Wow the power of knowledge LOVE IT. I wana study nutrition
One of my mentors...and one of the reasons why I’m going back to school.
I’m on a journey to find the cure for all diseases.
it is such an AMAZING feeling knowing for sure that I will never have any type of heart disease, obesity, diabetes.. so fucking wonderful to be able to control my own health.
Amazingly great video. I think I've just been convinced to the vegan lifestyle.
Taylor Ciccotelli DO TRY it Taylor...there is SO MUCH support for it on the 'net !
YAY! Congratulations! :)
Taylor Ciccotelli There are a BUNCH of great resources on Facebook too!

This man is genius.follow him for years and will to years to come. Thank you for everything dr! You are really doing a public service for all of us
You're a genius, Dr Greger! I am a dietitian and, I just love to hear you! You are a God given, science based, amazing Doctor! Following you!
Thank you so much Dr Greger. Another great talk that I can pass on to others. Like all your information this one is much needed and I will be watching this one several times.
Met him Tuesday night 1/19/2016! Thanks for coming to Portland!
I just have to express my utter love. I have opened the eyes of quite a few friends without being a vile guilt tripping angry vegetarian/vegan about it. No, your video scares the shit out of them enough that I don't need to. Quite literally lol.
I love you, Dr. Greger! You inspired me to go vegan. It's the best thing I ever did for me, the animals and the planet. Thankyou!
All I have is respect for Dr Greger. Thank you for educating us!
The most important I've listened to this year! thank you!
I can't believe I watched the entire duration of the video. Needless to say, great video. Also, I adore the way you simplify and deliver such complex information.
Absolutely fantastic speech. What a brilliant, charitable and generous man Dr Greger is in putting this all together for us. Lifetime subscriber! Thank you Dr Greger!
Thanks for presenting all of this information, Doctor.
You are truly the best of the best doctor G!
I was convinced several months ago and finally got over the hump and went for it (Vegan) starting just a week ago (1-Oct-2015).
Zvi Benari how’s it going for you?! I’m 3 years September 27!
Big Thank You for putting all this energy into it. You rock.
I have waited so long for this. It's better than Christmas.
This guy is a genius of nutrition. Fantastic information and dynamic presentation. Thank you for uploading.
Dr. Michael Greger is awesome.
Thank you so much for posting this video.
An incredible resource of information! I was searching for the optimal diet for my wife who has a genetic kidney disease and after watching and studying the information provided by Dr. Greger realized that the optimal diet is the same for all of us!
It is awe-inspiring to know we can take control of our health so simply -- but finding the information to educate oneself has been seemingly elusive.......UNTIL NOW :)
Share this w/ all your loved ones and brainstorm ways you can help spread this critical information -- family, friends, facebook, church, school. Thank you and ENJOY!
SO TRUE! Foods that are good for our hearts are ALSO great for our kidneys, colon, pancreas, brain, etc etc!
Dominating like a boss. God bless!!!
Thank you for what you are doing Dr Greger!!!
You are changing people's lives for better!
Amazing! brilliant delivery of life changing facts.....Thank you...
Excellent! What a great speaker, to the point and backed science. This man did all the work everyone wished they did, all in one place, all in this video. Amazing.
