This is the second time in my life that I’ve been fully plant based. I came back to it from being a lacto/ovo pescatarian. I started a month ago on my 52nd birthday. I went from beginning to have lots of odd health issues to feeling like a new person. I’ve also lost ten lbs in a month, while staying full and maintaining great energy.
What’s a typical day like for you now
00:00 Introduction. Book anniversary.
3:49 How does eating a high-fat and high-meat diet like keto affect the gut?
9:48 How does the gut treat saturated and trasn fats compared to unsaturated fats?
12:12 Are fats beneficial for gut health?
13:27 Can irregular intermittent fasting harm your gut health?
17:02 What about extra virgin olive oil?
19:36 Can fruit make you feel gassy? Do cruciferous vegetables, legumes etc. at night create gas?
23:11 Should you track your fiber intake?
24:30 How much effect does a course of antibiotics have on gut microbiome? Are all gut bacteria killed or does it depend on factors like dosage?

My favorite guest! Dr. B
Always great info. Working through your book right now.
Thanks Chuck and Dr. B
🐾🌱💫🤗🐾🌱💫🌷🤗
Love your hair Chuck!
My friend's husband just got diagnosed with colon cancer. Apparently one of the causes is eating a high fat diet, meat and processed meat. I'm astonished when I see the numerous YT cooking channels promoting unhealthy high fat fried meats, high sugar and high salt foods and some being presented by proclaimed nutritionists.
It’s all about the eyeballs 👀, not helping people. Unlike this channel.
"nutritionist" is a term with zero clinical credentials. You could proclaim yourself a nutritionist right now and nobody could refute it.
Keep learning. The truth is not what people expect. Quality of animal fats, sweeteners, and salt matters. Unfortunately most of us have all the bad quality versions of those.
Fiber Fueled is a treasure trove of useful information and WFPB recipes that don't require exotic, expensive ingredients. I hope it will inspire my daughter, son-in-law and their young family to switch to a diet rich in plant diveristy.
Love this! Have the book! We are plant based and follow the 13-14 hour Time Restricted Eating window. Thanks Chuck for bring us Dr. B! Respect him so much!
Love Dr. Will B. Thank you for bringing the message. 😊
So many people with kidney problems are eating Keto. Scary.
Yes!!!!!! I'm shocked how quickly, how passionately Keto is embraced - as opposed to veganisam
And diabetes
@@Retrosenescent OMG! People with diabetes too? 🙈
My sister's friend, almost 10 years in throat cancer remission, was living a fairly healthy life with his wife. They're runners, and active outdoorsy, hiking biking etc.
He started keto full force last year and within about 10 weeks had a stroke.
One side of his body is partially paralyzed, He can't walk or talk, or chew.
But, so he can continue eating healthy keto, his wife runs his steaks through the blender and spoon feeds them to him.
The wife was 25 years vegetarian, until her iron deficiency. Dr. said start eating steaks.... and so she does, and lots of them.
They're asking for thoughts and prayers.
@@adorable3817 My thoughts are...1. Show them this video. GO to them & watch it with them. 2. Tell them how much they both mean to you & SO many others. 3. Ask them to EACH do their own " experiment of One" , together & go 100% plants only. 4. Ask them to look up Gershwin's protocol.
5. Ask them to think about fasting & to look up Dr. Jason Fung.
I hope they are able to rest, regenerate & become fully Healthy. Be the change you want to see. Lead by example & speak openly to family, friends and strangers you encounter! Share videos & articles freely. They will reach who they are intended for! 💘
Do you think it’s from all the processed meat and cured meats and meat and dairy in general? Or something else?
Loving this interview! So much good info.
Wonderful, Chuck & Will are a great team, always VERY INFORMATIVE interviews.
Thanks.for all.the.useful.information.docs
Many thanks to Dr B
Excellent interview 🙏🏽 appreciate the last comment about one minor imagined negative vs the plethora of benefits of WFPBed.
If you are the David Hogg who is fighting for restricting guns I really appreciate you and support what you are doing!
I like Rip Esselstyn's comparison that oil is to nuts/seeds/avocado as white sugar is to fruit.
LOVE Dr.B!! I love how simple and concise his examples are!! Super informative!! 🌱💜👏🏻
Chuck, LOVE your positive energy 🥰🙏 Thank you for hosting the show 🌱✌
You guys are amazing 👏🏼🖤
That was excellent. Thanks Dr B!
Excellent book by the way... I've read it twice!
I've just lost 24st 6lb in 2 years going plant base learning more by listening to your pod cast and doctors
Yet another great show. Thanks Chuck and Dr. B.! Fiber Fueled arrived today! Can't wait to start reading 🙂
It would be really helpful to know how much turmeric his dad was taking
A very informative; & at the same time, very convincing of the benefits of ‘Eating plant based food’ !!
Surely, I learned the important facts of Cocnut oil versus Whole coconut; Was enouraged to freely choose as many plant based foods as I can; Intermittent fastiing; .....to mention a few.
What other suggestions you can give to diabetics, Dr B? .. I am in my 70’s & would love to learn; even at a later stage; how to live healthily, having less medications to swallow. I wish I had this kind of educational videos to learn from, a long ago!! Even so, better late than never; I believe. Many thanks to Dr. B & The Exam Room👍. 🌞
Chuck, could you have dr. Will b. Do a segment on crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis and how to treat with food. Thank you
Not eating after six helps me sleep better.
There is a difference between inulin and other prebiotics. Inulin is not food for pathogenic microflora, they doesn’t consume it, compared to other soluble fiber which is nutritious for both bacterias, good and bad. So for those whose microflora is shifted towards pathogenic - inulin is a pure benefit.
About the last question - God, the creator of human beings has already said which is the best diet in Genesis. Period. Nobody can argue with God. Keep up the good work.

Truly a 10 star rating, Video, full of lots of Great, Information, have a Wonderful, Monday, sincerely, Diana Lipski 💕
Great upload, thanks for sharing! Stay healthy and safe! 👍😊🍓
Once again an interview is full of useful info and tips. I have noted a number of trolls lurking around this site, trying to pull down the plant based diet options. It's strange how some people take it so personally when another person chooses a different diet - they react as if they've been insulted. The irony is that so much of the stuff they spew is literally an insult to intelligence. These people are not interested in educating themselves, let alone others - they just want to throw their BS into the conversation in order to feel important, and to justify their own unhealthy diet choices.
i am sold on no added oils in cooking , i will eat olives, flax, chia, hemp , almonds. you can't avoid oils if your eating out, as long as i do not eat out often.
How do you cook vegetables
Hi your videos are very interesting and great source of knowledge.
Awesome, Video, love, Diana Lipski 👍
Chuck, I have just noticed how big, bright and clear your eyes are!
I love artichokes
So confused with an auto mmune condition whether keto is healthier or plant based
I am totally organic, no sugar or processed food b ut just dont know who to listen to
Congrats Dr!
Good vid what are your thoughts about vegans and grip strength and vegans and Sarcopenia. Dr valter longo recommended a mostly vegan diet with fish and maybe some eggs as people age. According to his work pure vegans get Sarcopenia is this true?
Dear chuck can u put the caption available for this video. So we people from Indonesia can understand. Thank you
What does that mean? 😊 ....put the caprion available?
Is there anything I can help with? 🥰🌱✌
@@adorable3817 She's asking for written text to be added so that everyone everywhere can understand fully what was said. Closed captioning.
Have read and recommended the book to many. Will be rereading soon.
I am fan and improvement of the health is good for me for u and all.
This is all well and good, but animal foods also provide certain nutrients that plants cannot.
Is it ok to drink sparkling water?
What about cocnut oil?
What the (nature david 2014 showed)--which seems to be a good thing: " In concert, these results demonstrate that the gut microbiome can rapidly respond to altered diet, potentially facilitating the diversity of human dietary lifestyles."
Such fantastic answers thank you Chuck and Dr. B.
I need advice for someone with no colon. I-have a friend who eats very low fruit and veg because she has to have food with least fibre content.
Is the meat grass fed and finished in these studies ?
Once a person is 100% plant-based and has reduced their fat intake thus less fat on their cells, does that mean it's then okay to eat refined foods such as white rice?
Yes. I only eat white rice when I do eat rice.
Yes, I also do well with white rice or organic white pasta. I combine it with lots of veggies and beans/peas, so there's plenty of fiber and nutrients in the dish! 🙂🌱
Caffine has to be bad for the good gut bacteria right? Seems like alot of wfpb people are drinking coffee
@22:50 I have "eased into it" for 6 years and still no relief from bloating and gas. :(
I thank my lucky stars I'm doing ok, and eat lots of black beans but it did take some months probably. Funny thing is I was eating potatoes labeled as Idaho the other day after eating Russet no problem for quite a while, and I had gas, so I'm doing an experiment going back to Russet for a day or two and see what happens. Could be something about that batch of potatoes, I don't know. However, they taste real good. =D
Good luck to you.
Eat meat .
@@RiDankulous ouhkp
I totally sympathize. I had same for a long time.
Sounds like you might be allergic to a certain food. (For me it's grains.)
I had Major issues of bloating - as a meat eater and plant based.
I highly recommend:
#1 get a BLOOD allergy test
#2 STOP drinking 30 Minutes before a meal
#3 WAIT to drink, until 1 hour after a meal
(So, no liquids with a meal.)
I figured out that Soy, flour and most manufactured foods bloat me - including Nut-butters.
My husband can eat EVERYTHING, without any issues.
A) What do you eat in a typical week? What are your top 20 go-to must-have foods?
B) Do you drink alcohol?
C) Do you smoke?
D) How much do you exercise?
E) What type of exercise?
F) What is your height/weight?
G) Do you eat refined sugar? If so, how much?
H) Do you eat flour products? If so, which ones and how often?
I) How much water do you drink per day?
J) Other than water, what type of liquids do you drink?
I can't wait to hear from you 😊🌱☮💚
Have you had a gut flora test? It could be your microbiome. Gas and bloating are both symptoms of SIBO (small intestinal bacteria overgrowth). Worth checking out if you're suffering. Also too many mushrooms or too much cabbage makes me toot.
thumbs up on that info. I would have loved to ask if blood type has an impact on what diet is best for you. Like would a O blood type and a AB blood type have the same heath benefits from a plat based diet?
I wonder what the effects of Stavia the sweetner and microbiom are?
He says no sweeteners. Stevia is a processed food, unless you use fresh leaves. Processed food is not wholefood. Just like cane sugar.
@@annaal7480 Adding a little brown sugar to your oat meal will have no affect on a plant eater. Its the fat in the blood from daily eating of animal products that blocks insulin receptors and cause diabetes. Sugar processes well in the body in the absence of animal fat.
What about peanut butter ( integral)?is it a bad fat?🙏🌱🇧🇷
Would love to know this too
Dark chocolate is high in saturated fat is that as bad as butter?
Hope I ll find your book.
Isn't there a compound in EVOO that makes you lose weight?
What about ghee and improved gut health?
Full of saturated fat and animal hormones.
Unfortunately he didn’t answer the question about intermittent fasting, only “regular” fasting that is a lifestyle choice.
Whole food plant based cooking show
What are the best sources of iron in the plant-based diet? Thanks Dr.
Ampalaya or bitter gourd.
Dark leafy greens
@@TheStruggler101 Thanks
Beans oats
I have heard that those who eat low fat or fast are at a greater risk of gallbladder disease. Please explain this to us?
low fat or fat free causes gallstones.
@@AdayDr1en yes I realise that which is why I asked for someone to explain why.
Do artificial sweeteners destroy gut bacteria including stevia!
Stevia is a plant. Most others are chemical combinations.
What about erythritol?
Yes
Why the need for artificial sweetners? Bananas and apples, raisins and dates are super sweet.
What are you needing "artificial" sweetners for?
Can we get vitamin B12 from plant based diet?
Nutrional Yeast
Only FORTIFIED nutritional yeast would contain it. On plant based, you have to use a supplement. That being said, even meat eaters can be low in B12 as the animals are not getting it in their (grain fed) diets anymore. Supplementation is probably a good idea for most people.
@Mark M from live chat You are wrong about having to eat most of your calories early in the day. I eat almost all my calories between 4 and 10 pm and I am only 120 pounds.
There is also nothing wrong with grinding or blending fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
@Koryun Léon Di Cristo I agree, I usually wait at least 2 hours after eating before going to bed.
@Koryun Léon Di Cristo Sometimes I do finish eating by 18:00. Other times I finish around 21:00 or 22:00. I do not think it matters that much. It does not do anything bad to me if I finish eating later. I like going to bed between 23:00 and 0:30. Going to bed earlier than 23:00 doesn't benefit me more.
He’s not wrong. There are studies looking at that. Many factors involved. I tend to eat later also and am light too. But that doesn’t mean I’m doing it all correctly. Just that my other factors compensate. Food choices, activity level, etc. Time constrains and activity level kind of determination my eating requirements, like I need to eat all the time or disappear.
@Koryun Léon Di Cristo Great Info! So what is the best time to wake up or to eat breakfast? What about exercising?
Can I do a 10 day WATER ONLY fast leading up to a colonoscopy INSTEAD OF taking that nasty medication?
How do I get away from sugar addiction?
I've been vegan for almost 9 years, but I eat chocolate and a lot of sugar almost every day. Does anyone have any tips?
Eat more fruit
Were all addicted to sugar. Just know what sugar you should eat. Whole Fruits are good. You can also switch to Raw Vegan Chocolate. Its like the healthies sweeth thing you can eat.
Dates are excellent. I eat 1-2 pounds in one meal when I eat them.
Mandarins are probably my favorite fruit. I eat 6-9 pounds of those in one meal.
I weaned myself off sugar by replacing it with a zero-calorie sweetener, Stevia, along with not keeping processed sweet foods in my home. I don't even crave bread anymore and no longer use Stevia.
When I have a high fiber diet, I rarely need between-meal snacks and dessert for me is fresh whole fruit. I find eating sour or bitter vegetables/fruits also curbs the desire for sweet foods. Sadly, sugar is like an addictive substance that keeps a person on the insulin rollercoaster.
Why is there such a great divide on saturated fat among health professionals.???? What TF is the truth??
Even if it was not bad for you, it's empty junk calories and it's nasty
There is a lot of bad science funded by the meat and dairy industries that misleads people into thinking that saturated fat (found mainly in animal “foods”) is not damaging to ones health. They use this information to even further distort the truth and say that saturated fats in fact are HEALTHY for you. It’s completely the opposite of reality
Also many so-called “health experts” on UA-cam are funded by Butcher Box and other meat and dairy companies to promote saturated fats and animal “foods”
@@Retrosenescent Right. ....but why does Dr. B say "a little" is OK?
Best to avoid saturated fat and coffee alltogether!!
I mean, then one could argue that a little bit of meat and dairy is OK too.
A little bit of sugar is OK too...
Ridiculous!
A little Rat poison probably won't kill you.....but that doesn't make it OK.
I was very disappointed when I heard him say that.
Just because he's addicted to coffee and doesn't want to give it up!
@@adorable3817, totally agree with you. I don’t know who Dr. B is but I definitely wouldn’t go to him for health advice
i been eating high fat - low carb since i was 13-29. no health issues here. docs always tell me i have healthiest bloodwork they see in years. meat and dairy are all i eat.
i have no arthritis, balding hair, vision problems like people my age. i don't even have to eat fruit or veg cause all my calcium and vitamin c is in my meat. losers.

Time restrictive fasting... Got it!
It’s time restricted eating.
✌️✌️
I remember a staunch anti-vegan engineer named Barry Groves wrote about how whole grain fiber scratches your colon and causes cancer and attributes his own colon cancer to having consumed whole grain bread for 5 years of his life.
This made me scared of consuming insoluble fiber, especially when a university professor also said that fiber makes you regular by scraping the wall of your colon to produce mucus so that your stool can slide out easier.
What does Dr. B think about this? I do not want to risk developing colon cancer since I have a family history of it.
Traditionally, whole grains were soaked and fermented by peoples. If you eat them any other way, yes, the fiber will be very abrasive and contain anti-nutrients. I'm thinking he was not consuming the grains properly prepared. Most modern peoples don't.

True keto is *_not_* a high meat diet! _On _*_real_*_ keto, high meat and unhealthy fats are discouraged!_ True keto is a low net carb, moderate protein, high healthy fat diet. Plant foods are encouraged, but those plants should be low carb plants. A reason why high protein is discouraged on _true_ keto is because gluconeogenesis turns excess protein (amino acids) into glucose (sugar/carbs). And in keto does not encourage _wild_ oil consumption. Calories and % of calories matter. Also, pure keto does not encourage dairy products. And true keto certainly does not encourage only animal products. I find that this physician either doesn't understand that a pure keto diet is, and/or that what he said here can be misleading.
Excessive saturated fat and lack of fiber are both dangerous according to many reputable doctor and nutrition organizations. If those can be solved, I could see it working.
@@RiDankulous Keto encourages healthy fats, like avocados, nuts, EVOO, chia, for example. On pure keto, any animal products consumed should be limited and should be grass-fed (vs grain-fed). Low carb plants are encouraged, and fiber comes with plants. It would seem that this physician does not understand what a true keto diet really is.
Joe Smith how is excessive saturated fat dangerous?
@@Jack-wt3pd Saturated fat increases your LDL cholesterol level.
Al Lee ok but LDL cholesterol itself is not responsible to cause heart disease right?

My Question to Dr. Bulsiewicz:
As long as I don't over-consume 2,000 calories in a day, is it healthful to consume as many poly/mono fats as I want?
I adore Dr. B and have followed him for a long while now. Fiber Fueled is EXCELLENT but I don’t fully understand his stance on coconut. While I agree the oil is not a great choice, the whole coconut has been an important food source for indigenous people in the tropics for thousands of years without everyone dropping dead from heart disease or dysbiosis. I grew up on an island in the middle of the pacific, in Hawaii. My nephew is from the Philippines and my family has spent a lot of time in Guam. God or nature, whatever you prefer to call the creator of the coconut palm, does not make a mistake! Coconut is natural and exists in a warm climate for a purpose. The fats in coconut are stable in heat, resisting rancidity. Lauric acid found in coconut is anti fungal (which is important in humid climates) and is why you find coconut derivatives in anti-fungal medicinal preparations. Perhaps at some point more studies will be available (if they are not already) showing the benefit of whole coconut, in particular to those people who come from and live in the tropics where the palms grow. I know Dr. B is not saying NOT to eat coconut and that the whole plant is better than the oil, but it still feels like a bit of a warning that I find a bit perplexing.
There's a difference between the ENTIRE coconut. ....and consuming just the oil.
God/Nature, the creator, also created poisonous mushrooms and other plants and berries that are deadly to humans.
I wouldn't call those 'mistakes'.
People eat meat, and it's not healthy for us - doesn't mean cows/pigs/chickens/deer (and dogs and bats) are mistakes.
People have been eating meat since the stone ages - as long or longer than they have been eating coconuts. Doesn't automatically make either healthy.
@@adorable3817 The DIFFERENCE is poisonous. Coconut doesn't poison you....smh If God created animals as food, why would he give them the ability to feel pain. Go plant based everyone! Your body is a garden, not a graveyard (animal corpses)
I stop eating at 5:00 PM. Then I don’t eat until 10:00 -11:00am... that’s my 17 hour intermittent fast...
I do the exact opposite. I only eat between 3 and 9 or 10pm. Some days I finish eating around 6 or 7, other days 9 or 10.
He says in the video it is not called intermittent fasting, it is your lifestyle or time restricted eating, which is good and advisable.
If you didn’t eat at all for a day or two it would be intermittent.
thats good i work till 10 pm impossible on them days cant eat at work
Thank you! I wish this information were around 20 years ago. Perhaps I could have avoided 4 autoimmune diseases. Thanks to Dr B and his book Fiber Fueled, I am cleaning up my eating habits. Hopefully I can tame my 4 autoimmunes and avoid the 5th autoimmune. Thank you for your work! 🙏
....I would add, to avoid coffee and oil too 😁👍
After I dialed in my microbiome I lost any appetite for alcohol that might hurt it.
Yes!!!!!!!!!!! Me too!!!!!!!!! I haven't had alcohol since April 13, 2019
I just lost the desire for it after "waking up" to all the harm it does to our body.
And, I did drink pretty regularly before that. Especially living in germany, the beer is mega delicious here.
Oddly, I don't miss it at all.
Does daily onion consumption, in cooking, increase hydrogen sulfide(gas or in gastric solution) in the intestines, and is it harmful?
And what cooking oil does Dr B use regularly, if he uses olive oil so sparingly, vegetable, canola oil? Aren't these highly processed oils?
He doesn't use oil for cooking. He uses water or vegetable broth.
One of the best most relatable interviews ever!
What about yughort?
From UK 🇬🇧
I have divercolitis and my Dr said I should not have any thing with seeds like strawberries and so on
I'm vegan, and even I can tell this experiment was crap. Most of these high meat diets don't include dairy, especially regular milk. I would love to see the same experiment with just dead animal. No milk products. Because that's what the nigh protein diets are promoting. That experiment would mean something. Your experiment will be blown off because people who follow these diets don't drink milk.
What if u have alcohol once a week?
And bread once a week?
Many people assumes keto is always almost only animal based diet. You can eat vegan keto and choose whole food high fat sources like nut and seeds and avocado ect. I do. Some higher carbohydrate plants like beens contain many fibers and resistant starches. If eaten cold it will not cause much of problem since resistent starch is not absorbed cold.
But if you eat beans you wouldn't be keto. Keto is 20 grams of carbs per day or less. You'd have to be eating a tiny amount!
@@lf7065 well for me, Im in ketosis. I have measured my blood with a digital ketone meter. You can buy books on vegan keto diet. I dont think keto is for everyone. I think we are all in some degree different. It works for me, but might not work for you. I just want to point out keto is not only for people eating meat. Just one last comment again... I eat my food cold, which change the absorption of carbohydrates.
@@lf7065 20 grams of carbs on a keto diet is a definition made because everyone get in ketosis and produce ketones. If you are in ketosis you eat a ketogenic diet fitted to you body. Some people can eat 50 grams of carbs and still be in ketosis. It depends on you bodys abillity to produce ketones on a specific diet.
How is gut health related to hair fall issue such as alopecia? Can a change in diet help the hair regrow?
Good hair growth relies, among other things, on good Vitamin D levels. Regardless of the source of vitamin D ( Food, sunshine, supplements) the kidneys has to convert it into a form the body can use. If you eat a lot of fat or are Insulin Resistant or Type 2 Diabetic ( caused by eating high fat), not only will the kidneys struggle to function properly but all the fat that the body is now storing in the muscle cells stops just about everything working properly - even hair follicles which will not get adequate oxygen and nutrition.
Here's the brilliant thing - slash fat intake and, after a very short while of doing so, the kidneys start working better and Vitamin D levels ( can be measured by blood test before and after) will raise naturally without any supplements being taken. And you will notice this even without blood tests being taken, because hair will, miraculously, start growing better and hair shedding reduce/stop.
