    Just a heads up for anyone who loves coffee like I do. Caffeine decreases the amount of vitamins and minerals your body can absorb, so it's best to avoid drinking it with any meals just so you get all your vitamins from our meals.

    Top tip to remove all pesticides from fruit and veggies is to soak them in water with a tsp of bicarbonate of soda. Studies have shown that a 15minute soak removed all residues and pesticides, those veggie washes didn’t seem to do much except remove soil and surface dirt. ❤

      And yet, most people were stronger then than the average human today, despite supposedly not having enough protein due to low meat consumption. Why do you think that is?

      My biggest breakthrough was upping my tofu game. It's a complete protein and there are so many delicious things you can make with it. I think it has a bad rep solely because most people have never had it prepared right, but following some recipes will fix that.
      As far as body fat, though- it's really just CICO, calories in vs calories out. You could eat less, but the better solution is to eat *more* of less calorically dense foods. For me that's often just cooking up a huge pot of lentils with some veg like carrots or tomates or spinach that take up a lot of space but not a lot of calories. I feel super full from eating a lot but it's less calories than a plate of processed nuggets in sugary sauces.
      Also- I really wouldn't worry too much about getting 'enough protein'. Most people in the western world, especially carnists, eat more protein than they could possibly ever use. Only the true upper echelons of body builders really need extra. Remember that for much of human history, all food was scarce, and yet people still survived while being stronger than the average person today!

By my calculations with Cronometer, that day of eating (excluding the morning protein powder smoothie) amounts to just over 2500 calories, 150 gm protein, 328 gm carbs, 43 gm fat and 3000 mg sodium. It's low on selenium, zinc, vitamin B3. It has no B12, iodine or vitamin D, but you said those are in the supplement you take. If you didn't use Tofu, what else would you substitute to get the 70 gm protein it provides?

    Hi Nimai I’m glad to be a rookie on your channel
    I got the honor to listen about you at the ON purpose podcast recently …. Wow
    What would you recommend taking creating in caps or pulver in additional to a protein shake and why ? 😁

    16:23 +1 for lentils! I love lentils, they're so good for ya, and since my wife is from India (and an amazing cook too) we eat a lot of daal at our house. We cook ours in an InstantPot and it makes for much shorter cooking times, and this translates to good news when we have one of those days where we don't know what we want to eat. You know those days, amiright? "What do you want to eat?" "I dunno..." 😂

    I'm not vegan but my husband recently decided to cut out animal protein because of family heart health. issues and his own high cholesterol. The Netflix Game Changers sparked his interest.
    For an effective vegetable wash, use a water bath with apple cider vinegar. Works great with citrus, too, to keep them from getting moldy. I have studied health and nutrition for many year's and all of the functional medicine doctors say that their isn't any type of protein powder that is healthy to consume.

      Can you elaborate why you think that about protein powders? I agree there a lot that are full of not great ingredients but I doubt ALL powders are bad. For example I use Orgain Simple. Ingredients: organic pea protein, organic peanut flour, organic pumpkinseed, organic almond, organic chia, organic coconut sugar, organic flavor, sea salt. I don’t see anything horrible there.

    Yay, great job on your video, information, and presentation. You're a big strong guy but you're also so darling. So happy your voice is out there. I went vegan for the animals over 20 years ago. Of course that benefits me and the planet as well. I've been wanting to build my body more and found your video really helpful, how to do it in a healthy and thoughtful (and compassionate) way. I'm so proud of you! Thanks for the video.

    -central Wisconsin: Thank you for coming back to UA-cam, and for sharing this video.
    I’m curious, you mention nothing about needing to include taking black pepper when consuming turmeric/curcumin, as the pepper allows for more absorption of the curcumin (which is in turmeric, and curcumin is the ingredient that has the anti-inflammatory property. Everything I’ve researched on curcumin absorption/turmeric, says to consume black pepper with it for maximum absorption. Can you please comment in on this. Thank you.
    Oh, and thank you for mentioning lentils and how much protein they have. I am one who can not have soy as I react to it, but I do love lentils (the pink ones, not the green ones), and the pink lentils have a similar taste and feel as cream corn -just my input in that.

Trader Joe's sells a bag called purple sweet potato but the flesh isn't purple only the outside. I'll try your sweet potato recipe on the purple sweet potatoes I eat. Thanks.

    I will say as a bigger guy, 270lbs, trying to hit those protein goals on a vegan diet is a challenge. At the minimum recommended,41 g of protein per meal, that’s a lot of beans, lentils, quinoa, etc. I can see why large strength athletes eat eggs, fish, and chicken. It’s easier to hit those macros.
