- Professor Campbell is a well-established researcher and author. His popular book (co-authored with his son, a physician) titled The China Study (2005), has been translated into more than 50 foreign languages and has sold well over 2 million copies. His second book, Whole (2013), was a New York Times best seller. Campbell has conducted experimental research on the effect of food and nutrition on the development of cancer and related diseases. His research program was relatively large, and his findings were published in more than 300 peer reviewed professional papers. He also participated as a member of several expert panels on health of the National Academy of Sciences, the National Institutes of Health and related public agencies. He has been in his professional career for more than 60 years.

The reason nutrition is not taught or used in Western medicine is because the pharma and medical devices, surgeries, etc would be lessened by probably 75%...so money is the reason
you nailed it on the head
Thats it.
The same with the study of parasites
Money, for sure. Also, power and control. A physically and mentally weak population is easier to control and manipulate.
Sadly yes. But even so a lot of patients with preventive diseases don't even realize that medications aren't the silver bullet cure. People would rather take a pill and hope it's a cure than put I'm the work of making a lifestyle change.
PS How many 84 year olds do you know who think, talk and move like this man? Watch his gestures and the pace of his speech. Very different than most people I know his age. If I'm going to pick someone to model my health practices on, it's going to be someone who looks like what he's expounding!
@Deb Fryer ... and how many 84 y/o's are still working?? His vegan diet has stood the test of time, literally.
Great point! My physician is in his 90s, still practicing, and uses these sort of approaches. My last "prescription" was for celery juice, lol. My dad was also a physician from the same generation. He scoffed at nutritional approaches, loved a great big steak, and died at age 51.
Stormy Maxine So sorry for your loss. 😢
@@debfryer2437 Aww, you are so kind! Thank you. My son is a vegan, and it is great to see the generational trajectory changed.
@@AnonGaming333 Sorry you lost your dad so young!
Love this man. He changed my life. My health belongs to me now and not drug companies.
Same here!
you got tricked.
Isn't it amazing to take control?
My husband has been on statins for years and years for extremely high cholesterol. Even they struggled to keep his levels down. 6 months on a 80% plant based diet took his levels down by over half!! The doctor called him in specifically just to ask what he had changed. She couldn’t believe it!!
No dairy, no meat, no eggs + lots of whole foods (no junk) = amazing, amazing result!!
Went plant based vegan years ago...not perfect, not by a long shot. A failed vegan if you will. But I'll tell you, even with a bit of a guy and still with candy and chips...crazily enough lowered my total cholesterol to 156. I couldn't believe it. Again, not perfect by a long shot but always trying.
A patient cured is a client lost
Yeah, need to keep him alive but not completely healed.
Life time dependence (addiction) of a client is the most profitable.
Exactly 👍🏻
Just like the justice system: money maker- creates jobs.
Have you ever met a drug dealer who cared about his buyer
I wish the whole planet would watch this.
Won't happen. One can hope though.
Hello
I would love to introduce you to Islam, please, as we believe that there is only one God, since God is the one who created us and created the heavens and the earth and everything, and sent us honorable messengers to teach us the way to worship God and God Almighty, the Messenger Muhammad (peace be upon him) was sent He is the last of the prophets, and we have a lot of evidence to prove that the Qur'an that our master Muhammad came with is from God, a lot of evidence, but as I introduce you to the religion quickly, I will give you some scientific verses, such as:
God says in the Qur'an
(And the mountains as pegs?)
The peg is what is planted in the sand to install the tents, and the mountains reach their extension to the layer below the rocky layer that makes up the continents. The earth would have been in a state of permanent turmoil, and this is one of the most prominent forms of scientific miracles in the Holy Qur'an, which science has recently discovered, and it indicates the sincerity of the Prophet - may God's prayers and peace be upon him - and what he brought from the words of God - the Most High - in the Holy Qur'an.
And also
God Almighty said in the Noble Qur'an: And after that He spread the earth.) It is the analogy to chicken eggs, which is the most accurate description of the earth, so how did our Master Muhammad know that the earth is round and that it is in this shape,
Of course, there are thousands of evidence if you want to read and read, and God willing, you will find the truth, and you will not find it except in the Qur’an and Islam.
I ask God to guide you to the truth
If you have a question or want help, please let me know
@@user-qg1uz6wr4r good work u r doing
Me too...
This is 100% on point! I recently lost my partner to cancer, and I was appalled at what his “nutritionist “ told him to eat in order to gain the weight he lost due to chemotherapy. She said he should eat anything, ice cream, candy, whatever. When I questioned that, and said I believed every mouthful of food should have a high quality nutritional value, she of course didn’t know how to respond. Even his brother in law, who is a gastroenterologist, gave him the same advice as his nutritionist.
We need more people like this man out there speaking about good nutrition.
Food is medicine!
Similar message from my mom’s oncologist! That she should NOT take any vitamins because they could interfere with chemo. (Something I also wish she didn’t do; the docs word was Gospel to her).
He's not telling the whole truth either. He's saying that all the proteins can be got from vegetables but there's a lot more to food than just protein. Cancer grows and feeds on sugars, I'm sure you're aware of that.
@@pepper419 that’s overly reductionist. Cancer also feed on cholesterol and protein. But eating unprocessed plant foods are important for our health. Fruits and vegetables have many more compounds that prevent harmful effects of pure sugar in isolation.
It is criminal what these Doctors do - or don't do when it comes to informing patients about proper nutrition! I am sorry to read about your loss.
Sadly, they probably figured that his prognosis was bad and since chemo makes it so hard to eat much of anything and one's ability to taste gets altered so much so that only the ULTRA processed/radical tastes are attractive to people on chemo, plus the fact that they are starving for calories of any kind. This makes many health care providers just prioritize just any calorie rather than real nutrition. The real nutrition of whole foods needs to be built into our system BEFORE we get cancer, but real food is not profitable enough; so hence, we have ultra processed foods (junk foods) served up to us on a "silver platter" in America--especially to the communities most at risk due to poverty and all the problems that come with that. Junk food....starting with formula for our most vulnerable babies which has a much greater negative impact on long-term health than junk food later in life when growth is slower. By the way, the Founders of La Leche League started saying "eat foods in as close to the way the foods grow" a LONG time ago in the mid 1950's but nobody paid much attention to them except the breastfeeding Mammas who went to La Leche League for breastfeeding support. I wish that experts would include breastfeeding/not breastfeeding in their analysis of good/poor nutrition and the life long impacts. Breastfeeding/not breastfeeding affects 2 people and is a potent public health tool that is largely ignored and WIC keeps buying more and more formula at discounted prices to give out to our babies who are most at risk......
The system is corrupt. Yet just hearing the professor publicly ask why nutrition is ignored by medicine, gives some hope. The medical establishment cannot be given the respect they take for granted until there is major change. They have abused their position as healers.
This man is not just a researcher....HE IS A BIOCHEMIST who spent his life thus far studying nutrition effect on long term health!!! He is the MOST knowledgeable man on this subject!
He is 86 yrs old, I believe he is the the authority for nutrition and health, I can only hope to look as good and spry as he is at that age.
NOBODY BLAME THE FOOD INDUSTRIES nobody , WE addicted with sugar SUGAR SUGAR not FOOD, THEY ARE PROTECTING THE FOOD INDUSTRIES THE FOOD industries are killing HUMANITY..
Where is his Nobel Prize nomination?! He literally showed that you can turn cancer on and off with casein (protein from dairy). Animal protein turns cancer on! This is a monumental discovery!
Worth researching Barbara Wren as well. She's published in about sixteen languages by Hay House. She lifted me out of the rut forty years ago.
Did he write a book in nutrition?
I came to the conclution that having people healthy makes no sense from a economic point of view. No doctors, no surgeries, no treatments, no drugs. Terrible business model. True but sad.
Very profound conclusion! That being said, truth is almost always determined by the general accepted rhetoric by our species. Spread the word, we can change our world:)
In countries with good public health care, (i.e france) wouldn’t it be better to have healthier people? It would save money in healthcare system treating preventable disease which would result in the money being invested into other areas like the education or infrastructure or grants for small businesses... or a smaller income tax which will allow people to spend more...? And all the employees wouldn’t go out of work because their salaries are already paid irrespective of demand and profit, like in the military...?
But there can be other markets created.
SORRY, but that conclusion is wrong! Sick people are far less productive. Sick people often retire prematurely. Sick people die earlier. The total cost from lost productivity caused by malnutrition and suboptimal lifestyle exeeds by far the business created by sickness.
@@klaus-rudigerhase880 excellent, use of all caps and explanation points indicates rhetorical analysis of sensationalism. Thank you for your rhetoric
I started out as a registered nurse but quickly recognized the corruption of western medical system so I decided to become a doctor to practice medicine in my own way. For the past 50 years I have been teaching patients how to be well with nutrition, exercise and healthy thought process but the insurance industry has done everything in their power to put me out of business. 10 years ago they told me my job was to give drugs because I was forbidden to help people get well! The insurance industry and the doctors working for them need to be sued for not recognizing the nutritional deficiencies that are causing massive disease in people. Doctors are supposed to recognize why the disease happens but they don’t care they just drug the symptoms.
We must investigate or downgrade Western medicine because they don’t help people.
We need a department of health and people should be able to go to a preventive medicine doctor first before they’re drugged! We’re paying billions of dollars to keep people sick for the profit of the insurance industry🤔
And for the profit of the pharmaceutical companies
Be strong, you are on the right track
@@feziwe1419 thank you, I am strong. Currently I am also teaching patients that real healing and prevention is done with vibrational light energy. The technology is amazing. Following the diet for your blood type is also a huge key health issue because it greatly reduces inflammatory disease in the body. We’re not supposed to die just after 65! Our government and politicians want us to die just after 65 so we don’t get Social Security or other benefits.
Sharon...good for you! The American medical system’s purpose is to keep people sick. Otherwise, Big Pharma would not make their
bazillions of $$ as they do today. That is their goal.
There is so much nutrition that actually would heal and keep people healthy.
The corruptness of our health system is beyond belief. The world is falling apart by design and the
“ globalists “ and big corporations all want to run a One World Govt....
with the elites at the top
dictating how people will live their lives. We are in the End Times....but God has different plans...the wicked will face judgement
and be held accountable. Keep looking up...Jesus is coming back to take be-
lievers home. Know God.
Some ride you must have had in the past three years!
As a physician it is sad to see poor health, not wellness as a driver of economic growth in medicine. While it is true that this is what we practice in our current model, it simply highlights why certain service industries cannot merge with capitalism. If increased wealth is the only driver of the pursuit of wellness then we can never truly tackle the epidemic health issues of the world. What Campbell demonstrates is that the tools for wellness are cheap, readily available and within all of our grasp.
Yeah. Coming from a student studying dietetics, you dont see preventive care being implemented. Medicare doesn't even support a preventive and even a supportive health approach. Dietitians cant even help a whole spectrum of clients who have Medicare that really need hands on nutrition counseling and medical nutrition therapy unless someone has diabetes or end stage renal disease. That doesn't even touch GI diseases, obesity, HNT, CVD, liver disease, eating disorders, and a whole other slew of general and specific diseases. It's terrible. Hopefully you are able to refer your patients with insurance to dietitians when they need help.
@@eturley7533 As a health coach and prospective medical student, I concur. It's unfortunate how tied to big pharma we are, but I'm optimistic that we are heading in the right direction- thanks to docs like Dr. Campbell, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, Dr. Brooke Goldner, Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. Michael Greger, and so on. We need go all come together and spread the word!
@@bryant475 It should be noted that the doctors you list and many other never criticize other doctors on their podcasts.
So, we're going to school to become fools?
@@sharaudramey9336 Look at K-12. Kids come out less curious and much more apathetic than when they went in.
A true living legend that should be awarded a Nobel Prize..!
Yes and Yes.
They gave a Nobel Peace Prize to a president who started 5 wars in less than 8 years. it's a joke.
Absolutely yes and yes!
michael onello he is a quack.
@@michaelsiddle837 are you saying that what one eats does not have positive and/or negative effects on one's body and health?
This makes me want to cry & be enraged all at the same time! Taking your health into your own is the only answer & hope for humanity
Well said sir!
I took my health into my own hands in 1979 afer being diagnosed with cancer.
OVER 40 YEARS CANCER FREE WITHOUT DOCTORS!
@@herbbowler2461 how and which food habitats you flow.... plz elaborate
@@rumachattopadhyay3475 please explain
Yep, and so true of everything in your life.
So refreshing to hear the top research speak honestly about the corruption that is killing millions. I think because of his age and morale fibre he has no fear to speak out about corporate corruption.
So true!!! Spread the word! Everyone needs to pass it on!
Have you read “death by food pyramid “? 👍🏻
People didn't even follow the food pyramid.. they ate fast and processed food instead. @@trainingxtrish
Fascinating vid & reading the comments. My journey to wfpb diet started with seeing the movie "what the health" with my youngest daughter. I was 65, diabetic & overweight. My youngest son was already vegan. Now 5 years later I have reversed my diabetes (thx dr. Jason Fung) with better nutrition, fasting & intermittent fasting. At 70 I am well & take no meds. So grateful for those doctors & scientists who dare to defy the mainstream medical/pharma mafia. Most of my family are now vegan or veggies & we're doing great. Peace, health & love to all.
Peace and love to you, John! My father turned vegetarian after a delicate open heart surgery. Doctors said: you need to take pills for the rest of your life and, also, in about ten years we need to repeat the surgery too. My father started feeling depressed. Then we luckily found that nutrition is the key. He turned almost vegan, thanks to The China Study. Now is been 20 years after that surgery: he is healthy, happy...and he never took his pills! x
This man has been doing research in plant-based diet for years. Netflix has a couple of documentaries that feature him. His theories are eye-opening and revolutionary. He is a role model and an inspiration.
Hey could you tell me what is the series name?
@@anujaphenany928 There's not a series but he was in the Forks Over Knives documentary
God bless Dr. Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn for everything they do to educate people about the importance of a plant based diet.❤️🙏
It has been said: "Eat your food as medicine, otherwise you may have to eat your medicine as food..." and the patient loses.
This is a wonderful speech by an expert and so well told. I cannot believe nutrition is not on the agenda of every doctor. I got cancer and asked the surgeon about my diet, she said it didnt matter and I've had no medical professional ever discuss nutrition with me.
The three most important things I've learned for good health are
1. get enough restful sleep
2. exercise - even just 30mins 3 times per week
3. eat properly
I talk about it so much people get tired of it!!
He is NOT a medical doctor. And I don't remember seeing his son who is a medical Dr. Makes me wonder why.
PRAY is the #1 priority for good health . Right .
Hello
I would love to introduce you to Islam, please, as we believe that there is only one God, since God is the one who created us and created the heavens and the earth and everything, and sent us honorable messengers to teach us the way to worship God and God Almighty, the Messenger Muhammad (peace be upon him) was sent He is the last of the prophets, and we have a lot of evidence to prove that the Qur'an that our master Muhammad came with is from God, a lot of evidence, but as I introduce you to the religion quickly, I will give you some scientific verses, such as:

If you have a question or want help, please let me know
It's also very much, what you DO NOT eat, drink and do. Read the Plant Paradox- you will learn a ton. I preferred the Audible version.
I have a hiatal hernia and yet no one discussed nutrition. When I asked if I could see a nutritionist, I was told that my insurance would only cover it if I were diabetic. I am doing my own research. Thank you for speaking out so honestly.
@@DebraJMSmith I am not overweight, but thanks anyway. I am figuring out the nutrition myself. Also, seeing a chiropractor has helped.
Eating lots of healthy fats, drinking lots of green tea, increasing water intake, cutting Red 40, no alcohol, and minimizing sugar, eating lots of wild caught fish, red meat, veggies, fruits, magnesium dense foods and magnesium supplements has helped cut 90% of my bipolar and ADHD medication. I’m happy to say that I’m almost med free and managing my moods well. Nutrition is powerful. Don’t underestimate a balanced diet
Quit gluten.
Uhmmm, red meat? You must be joking. IF you feel a need for an iron boost, any meat needs to be grass finished (not just grass fed- there is a difference.) Otherwise you are essentially just eating corn and soy. big fan of magnesium here. Everything else you said was pretty accurate. You really need to listen to the plant paradox. if you are stressed, plan a trip to MOAB, UT. You are welcome- these are solid tips.
You might like to read 'dead doctors don't lie' by Dr. Joel wallach..He reckons that the cause of adhd & bp are as a direct result of a deficiency of chromium & vanadium. Peace & health to you.🙏
No green tea for me! I am almost 4 years fully caffeine free, including chocolate, and loving it!! Chocolate is NOT my go to source for magnesium. Greens are. I also avoid soy, and regard it as an invasive species.
Them meds iv never seen anyone come out if it ok after useing them.
My neighbor lived a healthy life of 101 years old. Nutrition and low-stress was his secret. First hospital visit was at 98 years old. He wasn’t even born in a hospital.
pregnancy is not a disease, time to take control over our lives again. politicians, priests and doctors have been our mums and dads for centuries, time to be a grown up
@@SuperLammens pregnancy is not a disease but there are literally doctors specialized in it because it poses serious risks. They saved my life. Not giving birth in a hospital is a very big gamble, both for the mom and the baby. Apart of that I agree with you.
What did he eat ? Both plants and meat ?
@@debbiedebbie9473 probably a lot of nuts, beans, small amounts of meats, no salt, blueberries, more than half of his plate vegetables.
Professor Campbell has been on the leading edge of health & nutrition science for decades! I have learned so much from him and he has shaped the way I lead my life. I only wish that we could get his message to the forefront of education for our youth and upcoming medical practitioners. This way we can start to make a change in the so-called "healthcare" system.
We need to share
Are you familiar with Dr Michael Klaper? He has the same message as Dr Campbell and has retired from his work at True North and the McDougall program to travel the US and other countries speaking at med schools, etc., trying to spread this message to the doctors of the future!!!
There's more money in sick people... you will spend more money if you are sick, afraid, confused and distracted.
After I lost my "health" insurance, I learned that medical doctors don't give a damn about making me HEALTHY....their income depends on me (and everyone else) being sick....all-the-time. Losing my insurance is one of the best things to ever happen to me! Now, I depend on my FARM-ACY to maintain my health, and don't depend on a PHARMACY to keep me sick
Reading THE CHINA STUDY was such a relief for me , because in India majority of people follow a plant based diet and those who consume animal protein do not eat it that regularly as it is consumed in the west. It was literally heartwarming that my ancestors passed on a plant based diet as a gift to the future generations and in addition, our food is spice laden which makes it even more healthier when compared to other diet cultures.
Look again at the obesity rate in the major cities of India, China, and most of Asia; is increasing use of seed oil the cause? I grew up in Vietnam in the 1980s, not many obese people; now you 'll see them everywhere in major cities.
Indian food has the potential but in its current form it is(oil, milk, sugar, salt) worse than meat.
Unfortunately Dairy is a massive part of our Indian diet. We need to move away from this
Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.

Carli C i wanted to tell you that I gave a 20 min presentation on this mans work to my 400 level medicinal chemistry class and got an A and my professor still said to my face “I’m still gonna eat meat though”
@@justinsievers2756 Congratulations!!! Most people would never think of changing their diet , until they are forced to with serious health issues . ~ Blessings~
Yes!! that should be the first step in intervention. If it doesn't work then people should move up to the harsher way to treat the body (drugs/ surgeries). But drugs or surgery should NOT be the first choice. Diet and nutrition should be first :)
Culture and tradition keep most people eating a diet that will kill them. Changing to a whole foods plant based diet, just isnt that difficult.
Dr Campbell has done great work !
Charles Moore the truth is the opposite. You do not need any plant based food whatsoever.
Like cherry picking data for the China study?
Michael Siddle that’s a big claim. But worthless without evidence.
@Bongo Man Vegan advocates you mean? Preaching epidemiological studies because they don't have any real research, you know double blind peer reviewed, the studies that mean something
@Bongo Man Save the vegan bs, been there done that, now I have no feeling in my feet after listening to you fruit loops for years, thanks for nothing
Treatments make money, cures don’t.
sad but true
When I watched PlantPure Nation I immediately gave the whole food plant based lifestyle a serious go. 4 months into it, I've lost 30 lbs, I feel 100% better than before the diet change and I can sleep without meds now. I'm not a fad follower but this man and his studies convinced me it was time to get my health back on track... It was tough for the first few days until I broke my sugar "need", then you will discover food has great flavor on it's own without adding more flavor... Good luck to you. I hope you experience what I have been able too.
The best scientist I have come to know. His teachings literally made me a better person. Thanks Mr Campbel.
Fantastic person and someone who is very respectful to other people. Sadly many people have attacked this man over the years for having an opinion based on observation, thorough study, research and facts.
Wow thank you! You’ve hit the nail on the head! This should be on the nightly news but we KNOW that will NEVER happen!!!
I told my doctor once, ‘you know I was on Ativan and Zoloft for anxiety and was able to get off of them by taking natural supplements like L-Theanine, Ashwagandha, Magnesium.’ I asked him, ‘why don’t you tell your patients?’ All he did was smile and shake his head no, that was his answer, I couldn’t believe it. Actually I can believe it! God bless you for speaking out!✨🙏🏼✨
What an amazing professor, we see, more now than ever even, how true it is and thank you for posting, hopefully it teaches many, respect from Belgium
Thank you, Dr. Campbell. Your book changed our lives, and we've been WFPB, nutrient-dense since 2007 after reading The China Study. I share posts from you regularly, and promote your organization to all that will hear me. Thanks for spreading vital information for those of us seeking it.
thankyou for your Research and public eduction talks T.C. campbell!!! thankyou
Professor Campbell is making some interesting points here. I’m currently a second-year medical student, and I agree that my education has not included a significant dive into nutrition. We’ve talked about certain vitamin deficiencies, obesity, as well as several other eating disorders. We learned about heart disease, diabetes, and myriad gut, brain, and endocrine diseases. And I think those are hugely important things to learn. My first job as a physician is to “do no harm.” We need to have the knowledge of diseases to be able to treat them. So, if I’m going to defend my current education, I would take that route. My job is going to be to help people escape sickness quickly, and medication, in my opinion, is the best way to do that right now.
Where I think this Ted talk gets into tougher question is this: what the role of the physician in is helping to maintain “peak” health? Nutrition is probably (I can’t say for sure, but Professor Campbell is making this point) the most important aspect to a person’s overall health. Apart from telling patients to eat whole foods, removing simple sugars, cutting calories, etc., what will my role be in ensuring better nutrition for my patients? I think putting this onus on physicians isn’t exactly fair. Yes, we need to be better educated about nutrition, but the fact that the cheapest foods are the unhealthiest for us is a huge issue and has nothing to with doctors. He mentions that this is a systemic problem, and I agree with that. We do need to prescribe less pills, but if those pills are the only thing keeping someone functioning because they can’t afford to shop at Whole Foods, then I think it’s a fair trade, personally.
Well said! Thank you, Professor. You are one of the many Food enlightenment pioneers.
A great talk but I arrived here after watching an equally well-established researcher author and physician talk about how much better animal protein is than plant protein. Yes you can get all the proteins one needs from plants but you have to select and combine those different plants to get complete protein and even then it's not as high quality or so easily absorbed.
My point is this: Can we PLEASE get these people together so they can bring up ALL the relevant points. Then work TOGETHER with testing and science so that we can clear through all the "fog" surrounding the subject of human nutrition. It's 2022 and there is just as much conflicting information as ever. Forget the industry spin we want the truth!
I have a debilitating autoimmune disease, and thanks to a strict vegan diet from The Paddison Program I am not on drugs and feeling good. I never thought diet had so much to do with our health.
That's terrific, congrats! Which supplements do they have you use, for the nutrients that are tough to get as a vegan (if you don't mind sharing that)?
@@AnonGaming333 Vitamin B12 and D and the only vitamins that are hard for me to get naturally. Everything else I get from food (mostly raw). Technically, my supplements for B12 and D are not vegan, but I've got to get it from somewhere, and it seems to be okay for me.
@@chaseadams347 Thanks, I appreciate this. It is consistent with what I have read. I did find a vegan Vit D online, for my son- you know the dominant online shopping site.
Stormy Maxine I’m glad to hear it, I hope he is healing well. There are some great vegan probiotics out there too.
How to fulfill calcium requirements through vegan diet?
It's like a deep breath of fresh air to hear someone tell the truth. Everything he says about is the truth
Dr. Campbell, Thanks again for all your doing! I keep praying your message gets HEARD! Eating a (WFPB) Whole Food Plant Based diet is the only way, Nothing else compares, NOTHING! I heard it in Forks over Knives, along with Dr. Esselstyn's, and you BOTH have saved my life! I'm so very Grateful, God Bless and Godspeed.
Amen
Respectfully though mitch, like I was too, you still look good, but a bit over weight...and don't dye your hair man- just go natural. Lean into aging- I have gray and love it. Dyes are also toxic.
So serious talk, are you loosing weight? I very highly suggest you listen to the plant paradox- it will help. I lost ~50lbs. I did it over time though- do not lose to rapidly or it can impact your gallbladder. I lost mine but all is good now. I am 6' 1" 160lbs.
Thanks for posting! Dr. Campbell is a wealth of information!!!
I couldn't agree more. Well put, Professor Campbell.
Thank you for fighting the good fight in the face of constant nay-sayers!! It has to be hard to know the truth for SOOOOOOO long and have to keep trying to be heard. I read your book years ago and it changed everything for me. Like you, I've been preaching it ever since. THANK YOU. You are appreciated and you ARE making a difference.
one of the heroes of my family. we listened and improved all greatly. thank you very much, ophie (germany)
Fantastic content from an absolutely wonderful man
Wonderful talk! I kept saying 'Yes, yes!' throughout.
I hope I live long enough for the tide to turn. Bring on nutrition to give our bodies what nature intended. Thankyou so much for putting this out there☺💖
I get it, buddy :) they should be teaching doctors nutrition but you know what? The exact same information our doctors should learn, EVERY single patient could have learned in grade school where nutrition education would do the most good. So not only should doctors learn nutrition, they should have started to learn it in first grade.
Nutrition is not just your basic meals. Doctors study anatomy and chemistry. And with their knowledge they can apply nutrition into right direction. Everyone has no obligation to know what is good for each of health problem.
I agree with you on basic knowledge. But there are many serious health issues that can be prevented by doctors.
People forget Dietitians exist for the reason that we study human nutrition and medical nutrition therapy. It's not really expected from a doctor to know the nitty gritty, just like you would refer to a pharmacist for information and use of medications. Nutrition is our study and professon, but a lot of us aren't even able to implement care outside of hospitals because doctors are the ones who have to refer patients, so the whole system is frustrating.
Bravo Professor Campbell🙌🏼👏🏼 everything he said is 100%%%% accurate
Probably one of the most important Ted talks I've ever watched and I watch at least 2 a day. Thank you for the knowledge
Loved this presentation!
I love this man and his family. He has awaken a lot of people. God Bless You!
Thank you good doctor I pray that there are more doctors out there like you you are absolutely amazing thank you for being one of my heroes
Dr Campbell is a very passionate man !!
Thanks again Dr. Campbell for all your dedication and energy spent spreading the word. I get it... I rarely eat animals; maybe 1 out of 20 meals. And even then I feel I'm 'cheating', ha ha! I'm 57 and I feel great on the plant-based, whole foods diet I've followed for about 15 years now.
Dr. Campbell is my mirror!!! Thank you! I’m trying hard to show my husband that we are what we put in our mouth… nutrition is the key to keep healthy….he doesn’t care… it is 😞 but I do my best… and I’m a blood donor been vegan and the Red Cross couldn’t believe it! We do not need to sacrifice the animals live… they have rights to live.
Perfectly captures the root of the problem of Western healthcare systems. We should think of it as more of a health crisis, rather than a healthcare crisis, even though both are going on at the same time.
This man’s book changed my life. I am so grateful for his work!
What is the title of his book, please? I would like to read it.
Thank you
I just found the titles in the description😂
Thanks anyway!
I could listen to this doctor all day! Always good advice end guidance.
Thank you for sharing, T. Colin!
He is 100% on point! Listen to him! Dominion (2018) 💖
Thank you - love ❤️ you Dr Colin
Thanks for the best reliable, eyeopening,humble study.
That is exactly what the Ayurveda's & Naturopath's holistic health approach is.
I really like his emphasis on the importance of whole foods - being a whole food many myself
So relieved to see him talking about whole nutrition what it should be. Thank you greatly Dr. Campbell.
The future of health and wellness, eradication of global starvation, and the survival of our planet is up to each and every one of us. Through plant based nutrition and avoidance of animal protein consumption we can all make a difference. As a primary care physician it is my duty to lead by example. Just as Dr. Campbell. What we do every day is important. Time for change. Thank you Dr. Campbell
You realize bugs were a big part of our diet right?
The survival of our planet depends first and foremost on decreasing the population, especially in countries where women are having more than 2 children. Some parts of the world are already experiencing water shortages.

Very well spoken! I think this is the right answer to being healthy. Drugs and supplements tend to be a shortcut that could never nourish us like whole plants do. Our health is worsened by doctors who are basically paid to promote pharmaceuticals that only truly help in the short term. I hope nutrition will soon be taken more seriously in the medical community, and more voices like his can be heard.
Excellent talk. Thank you
There are a lot big players who stand to lose out if this sorta knowledge became mainstream... not just Big Pharma, but of course the fast food industry, among others
Thanks - This is a topic that should be given top priority. The medical and pharmaceutical groups are too corporate and really not interested in human well being.
This is seriously mind-blowing... At first, after a few seconds when he said, 'Nutrition, when done right, can create more health than all the pills and procedures combined'. My reaction to that was , "You think, Mr. Brainiac? Were you living under the rock ?" and "Why are doctors so detached from reality" I even checked the date of this post, half-hoping it was posted in the last century...
But then, when I stopped jumping to conclusions and listened more, I heard things that literally made me fall in love this guy. He's a genius that needs to do more talks and teach medical students everywhere. The things that he said about animal protein blew my mind. I always had a nagging feeling that the official recommendations for protein are waaaaay off. It just didn't make sense to me for a normal person's diet.
Another thing, he kinda explained to me in a roundabout way why my son who never eats anything ( a little exaggeration here but still ), has so much energy and thriving.
He reaffirmed to me that we just don't need so much food. And maybe we don't need to eat 3 times a day plus 2 snacks. The food simply has to be whole and nutritious.
Too bad I can't become a vegetarian. I really really tried... and failed. His talk made me want to try again.
Ana F He is one of the creators of forks over knives documentary. You can also watch Dr Mcdougall, Dr Goldhamer, Dr Ornish, Dr Esselstyn, Dr Barnard, it’s mind blowing everything they’ve done, but corporations just don’t want us to be healthy
Please try again you will not regret it. May God give you strength to do so Amen
Ana....Good points, and don't be too hard on yourself about not being a full fledged vegetarian. I think you already know that a good balanced diet and exercise regimen is quite good enough. Remember, all those healthy older people we see getting their daily walk or jog, are not going to win a triathlon. I'm simply reminding you that coming up a little short of "perfection" is still going to have dramatic positive results. Many people who are successful at long term good eating habits will still treat themselves to a pizza, or whatever, occasionally. I also cannot be a vegetarian....I have to have my treats as my reward for a good diet each week! Do what works best for you.
Ana F it helps to think of it as a continuum rather than being a vegetarian or not. Consider each time you make healthy choices to be another gift to yourself. If you do have meat, perhaps you are 90% vegetarian for a spell, or something like that. There is no perfection!
You dont need to be vegetarian to eat more veggies...
God Bless You, Dr. Campbell. God Bless You. 🙏
Over a year ago I took my son to a new pediatrician for a well child appointment right after he turned 4 months old. The doctor came in and examined my son and then prepared to leave. On his way out the door he turned around and said “oh ya by the way he can eat food now, you can give him whatever you want, just avoid honey and cow’s milk” then he walked out of the room. As a first time mom I was so confused and had many questions. I had no idea how to transition my baby to eating, and what foods would be the best to start with. I think the pediatrician could sense my confusion and came back into the room a few minutes later. He asked if I had any questions about starting solids. I started firing off a million questions. He said “well one of my kids we started them with chocolate ice cream so give your kid whatever you want.” I realized at this point I wasn’t going to get very far at this appointment and told the pediatrician I had no more questions.
Hearing Dr. Campbell talk about the lack of nutrition education in medical school was very surprising. A Dr.’s responsibility is to encourage health among patients whether that be through preventative measures or treatment. Nutrition is such an important part of health and needs to be talked about more often. This talk had an interesting point that nutrition is not currently an option for medical specialty, nor is it something that doctors can be reimbursed for through insurance. Providing Dr.’s with the education, time and resources to counsel their patients on nutrition would make a very impactful difference on the health of our society. It is much easier to prevent disease by establishing healthy lifestyles early then fighting disease to the death.
When will people catch on! Love these doctors
"Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food" -- Hippocrates.
"Real food is medicine; bad food Needs medicine" -- Prof. Robert Lusting.
Well said many thanks. God blessed.
Spot on!👍
Really enjoyed this talk, he looks healthy and speaks well. My wife has a large vege garden and orchard we also have chooks for their eggs the paddock out the back we keep some steers for our meat. We also stay active whether with sport or work. Just a few friends and family. Its all about having a good balance. Our children have been brought up this way, we are all very healthy the only reason we've needed a doctor is the odd broken bone. Our children have now flown the coup and have continued with the good life.
Congratulations and thank you for stirring the imaginations of others who may consider emulating your natural way...
❤️❤️❤️
I'd like to see a panel discussion that includes Professor Campbell, Mikhaila Peterson, and Dr Shawn Baker. Included in the discussion I would like to hear an explanation by Professor Campbell as to why Mikhaila Peterson couldn't heal until switching to an all beef diet. She eliminated ALL whole plant foods. Her father, Jordan Peterson cured his depression doing the same. Whole foods nearly killed her and nearly destroyed her father Jordan too.
Dr Shawn Baker has been a carnivore for over two years and has a blood panel that's near perfect. For those that don't know he's a world class athlete that owns records attained as a strict carnivore.
Owsley Stanley was a strict carnivore and had perfect health for over 50 years. It took and auto accident to kill him at the age of 76. Not eating whole plant food worked for him and protein didn't give him cancer. For what it's worth, LSD didn't hurt him either. :)
Everyone in nutrition thinks they have the answers. If you read them all it leads to much confusion.
Human beings have been carnivores for thousands of years. We should rely on the wisdom of our bodies/ancestors. We are NOT herbivores.
Genetics probably play a role. Also, meat *is* a whole food...
This talk is very flawed. No study done on animals translates well to humans.
@Bongo Man epidemiological studies are not reliable. Country studies are not control trials.
@Bongo Man where are these studies? I have searched, but many descriptions boxes don't list their sources. I would like to be able to see the actual studies (Not abstracts or conclusions). If they were honest about the studies and what they say, why don't the sources get cited in an easy to access situation?
Also there are some vitamins that can't be found in plants. If people need to supplement, Is it really a healthy diet? Humans have always been hunter gatherers. Plant based makes NO sense to me. There is literally no way anyone could be plant based with out food being transported several hundred miles, especially in cold climates. Only tropical climates could survive without animal foods, if they only ate what was able to be grown locally.
i’ve been asking this question my entire life. Is so obvious now, why aren’t we demanding more transparency. I don’t trust dictums anymore, basically now I go to a dicto to get a diagnostic and go home and do my own research and I am doing much better on my own these days.
Great talk! Thank you!
Enjoyed this talk! Gonna make that change!
Good for you! Honestly I don't care whether people eat or kill animals. I live for myself.
I stopped eating animal foods a month ago. Haven't lost weight, but my brain fog, and forgetfulness, plus heartburn, colon inflammation, constipation, blood pressure, and overall fatigue, have either gone away, or lowered.
It truly works, just make sure you keep the oils, and fats down. So nice to eat a giant bowl of spaghetti piled with veggies and not feel guilty!
listen to the plant paradox ardella if you are serious. You can TRUST this tip...or don't, doesn't effect my life but you will be happy.
Great video really got me thinking about the importance of nutrition
You look pretty fit as is. If you read Plant Paradox you will go to the next level- audible version is best.
Great insights🍃
Enjoyed the presentation and am grateful for the opportunity to have someone tell us how bad the system is. Nutrition science has led the way to medicine science. Yes, take the fruit and vegetables WHOLE and not bits and pieces of it. I am saddened in some ways when I see commercials on TV for various juicing machines that take the juice of an orange and discard perhaps the best of it, and they show a kid gulping the juice - mostly sugar.
his book, the china study is a life changing to me
This is common sense at its best and very well expressed.Keep up the great work Doctor
yes its common sense to eat man made unnatural plants, as an animal with a carnivores digestion tract. makes total sense. this guy is a paid liar. paid to decieve you
@Bongo Man so i am uninformed? great jokes. ignoring the links i sent you? classic. undeniable proof.
@Bongo Man actually there is no financial incentive. in the west. doctors get paid more the sicker you are. or at least you are willing to pay more in advance the higher your risk for illness appears to be. you dont have basic logic man. get a reality check
@Bongo Man why you avoid my evidence and blabber on?
@Bongo Man i sent it to you
Thank you for sharing! It is helpful to be reminded that we can fulfill our protein needs through plants alone!
I've been a fan of Professor Campbell's for a long time. I'd like to see him start a school for medical practitioners.
I find the problem is locating whole foods that have not been compromised. We get poisoned at the grocery store.
buy your produce from a farmer markets. they taste better than grocery store chains
Excellent Ted Talk. Thank you so much for sharing these facts
Well said, Sir.
THANK YOU FOR THIS WONDERFUL INFORMATION!!
Great talk. I would offer a small correction. Naturopathic Doctors, recognized by our federal government as physicians, do learn nutrition in school. Not only do they learn nutrition, they learn how to use it as a therapeutic tool.
That's not medicine
I would like to know what kind of animal protein they used in the study. I know of another study that did the same thing with milk proteins and it found the same up and down pattern of tumour growth concurrent with the increase and decrease of the milk protein casein. I wonder if that wasn’t so much about the casein as it was about general level of protein consumption or if this study is less about general protein consumption and more about the specific protein they used? Interesting. I wish they would put links to the the studies mentioned in the talks so we can find out more information! Or at least the name and authors/location of the study so we can look it up. Good science always cites their sources!
Casein produce diabetes 1 in children
So powerful!
MERCI tres beaucoup!
You would think the Hippocratic Oath they takes as doctors would say everything, but we are just a paycheck to them. Do no harm to your patients doesn’t pay the car payment! T Collin Campbell thank you!
Dr. Campbell is one of those lone voice's that shakes the rafters of modern health via nutrition. Sadly there is no money in broccoli but extract each compound and there you have it.
You don't think vegetable growers make any money? You need to do some research. Grains, potatoes, and other vegetable crops are actually more profitable than meat is.
@@banishedfromthedwarfplanet530 Farming can be lucrative obviously but not at the level of a corporate pharmaceutical company. Perhaps I didn't make a clear comparison, sorry.
Jo Drew>> I thought you were comparing the vegetable industry with the meat industry. They both make money, but grains and potatoes rule when it comes to profit. But yeah, you're right, the pharmaceutical companies make almost all other businesses look like chumps.
My problem with Dr. Campbell is his dishonesty with his so-called studies.
@@banishedfromthedwarfplanet530 Well please elaborate. I eat whole food plabt based and have for the last two years, with amazing results. Everyone I know who has switched over to that way of eating has improved their lives dramatically so, why are you sceptical of Dr. Campbell's work?
Broccoli has sulfur containing compounds; sulfur compounds were for antibiotics before the synthesized antibiotics were invented.
Thx TED n Dr T
Bravo Sir
