1. My comment got taken down. I guess nobody remembers SNL's "Point Counterpoint" and Dan Ackroyd's classic response to Jane Curtain. It would seem politically incorrect if taken out of its context, which I imagine it was. The comment was apropos of this debate, particularly when Greger comes back at the meat guy. I bet anyone over 65 would have gotten the reference. Oh well.

2. How I wish you could have been there on tv advocating for the actual science. They probably would have put you in the omnivore or balanced diet box, but at the very least viewers would have got away with some nuanced actual science. This was not a debate like this. It was a shouting match between 2 zealots.

   This overselling of vegan diets is not helping anyone. I would have reduced my animal product way earlier than I did if I would not have encountered overselling/zealous vegan and carnivore/low-carb proponents. You cannot fight fire (misinformation) with fire. You bring a water hose,(nuanced study results) not ice cubes. (Exaggerated claims)

3. I have read quite a lot of articles by Dr Michael Gregor, and all I can say is as a nalmost 70 year old person whoi has some Scientific knowledge i I found that at the very least, Dr Michael Gregor tells the truth, but not the whole truth. As for me, I will stick to the dietary and lifestyle guidelines recommended by the United Kingdom, British Heart Foundation and national health service.

4. Oh my, this is gon' get gud!!

5. But maybe more interesting question could be whether the recommended amount of proteins is big enough.

6. How come these carnivores are scared to release their blood tests? Remember when Shawn Baker did and he was pre-diabetic with testosterone of an 80 year old? 💀

7. Dr. Gil, you do a great job. This channel brings order to all the madness out there related to the various diet camps. Keep up the awesome work!

8. This debate was very hard to watch, even through the few clips you played. I have to wonder how much value they offer. My concern is that the viewers leave with the impression that 'experts can't agree', the science is contradictory and they need up more confused than ever.

9. Dr.Greger is vegan,not vegetarian.

10. Sadly, all camps dig in to monetize their base. My own preference is Mediterranean or dash and I try to filter the extremes.

11. That debate was a joke from both sides 🙄 maybe don't listen to people who tie their identities to a singular way of doing things, and whose livelihoods depend on that identity.

12. This was a marketing debate, not a scientific debate. It's called the "Two Chart Challenge". This is pretty obvious, isn't it.

    You should, for the fun of it, watch some of Greger's videos in which he quotes studies and then check the study….. It's ridiculous. He manages to quote from introductions of studies, in which the reason for the study is explained, which then conclude the exact opposite of what he quoted.

13. I had to stop watching Gregor a couple of years ago. I chased up a couple of his more extreme claims to find he completely misquoted studies. claiming the outcome was the opposite of what the authors identified. His liberal and cynical "appeal to authority" with his half baked MD status no longer works with me.

14. Something that I like about proteins is that they tend to increase satiety and also the metabolism doesn't like to use them like energy so generally prioritize to use them for other stuff first.
    They are good for trying to loose fat, and also they are good for trying to bulk muscle; and my guess is that the vast majority of people is in one of those 2 categories.

15. I wish everyone in the nutrition field was as honest and articulate as you are. Some are honest but don't explain things well and some explain things well but aren't completely honest.

16. @dr.matthewnagra I hope dr. Matthew Nagra will respond to the question if the body of evidence shows that eating meat is unhealthy (not correlation, but causation).
    Thanks to Dr. Gregers book "How not to Die" I learnt that I did not NEED to eat dairy and eggs to stay healthy. Ethically I did not want to eat dairy and eggs, because they cause the same amount of suffering and death as the meat industry, but I was convinced I needed to eat this to stay healthy as a vegetarian. Dr. Greger explains very clearly how we can be healthy eating only plants. He is NOT a vegan, btw. He clearly states so in his book.
    And here is an anecdote again: going from vegetarian diet to whole food plant based diet made such an improvement in the health of our entire family.
    I never eat meat in my life (for ethical reasons) and the idea of eating corpses is just insane to me, something I have never done and will never do. I don't care if eating a bit of meat every now and then is unhealthy or not (we all know by now that it is about the overall diet pattern). As long as humans can stay healthy without eating meat, that is what we should go for. It is not sustainable to breed and feed so many animals on this planet for food.

17. what is your opinion on dr. Avi's dissection of the Ornish and Esselstyn studies? Thank you!

18. Gil likes to say, "all ethical considerations aside" when he referees such debates about animal based foods versus plant based. But should he? Shouldn't the question be examined first through an ethical and moral framework? Even if animal foods didn't carry greater health risks than whole plant foods, it isn't ethical to harm animals if the need to do so does not exist. Indeed, for the vast majority of us, it does not exist.

    Furthermore, food scarcity is mostly a result of animal agriculture to begin with, since the vast majority of plant calories that are produced go toward feeding animals at a vastly diminished return. Where do the poor people in question live who need to eat animals? How do they feed their animals? Granted there are situations where animals must be harmed or exploited for food, however these are less common circumstances and should be presented as such when moderating the debate. Science without ethics is pointless.

19. id love to hear you and greger iron out some kinks in a chat. Mike the vegan did a video on the ornish study that made it sound quite compelling. thanks

20. Just listened to Don Laymon talking about the RDA on protein and how he thinks it is wrong–in that the RDA is too low…a potential starting point for further discussion.

21. 2:48 – The RDA for protein is the absolute minimum requirement to potentially prevent deficiency and very likely too low for optimal health – Ivor probably referring to a more optimal protein intake like 1.6g/kg IBW – do you disagree with this Gil?

22. I'd like to see Dr. Greger on your show to hear his side of the story.

23. Thanks, Gil. I've asked for a fact-check of Greger a few times on your channel and I'm very glad you found the time to do one. My dad treats Greger as something of a messiah but I'm innately suspicious of anyone who offers easy solutions to complex problems. You proved, once again, to be the voice of reason. All the best.

24. I think the exaggerations and absolutism of Gregor and other plant based docs undermines their argument.

    Which infuriates me, because they're mostly right. The more whole plants we eat the healthier we'll be, overconsumption of animal foods and processed foods are drivers of lifestyle diseases. Not to mention that a massive global shift towards a plant based food system is essential if we're to have a chance in hell of addressing the climate crisis because animal agriculture is the most damaging things we do for the environment.

    But by exaggerating the benefits of plants, or demonising the consumption of any animal products whatsoever, they're limiting their impact.

    I think far more people would listen and make changes if they argued for a predominantly whole plant diet that still allowed for a small amount of animal products. Don't get me wrong, that would mean a far bugger reduction than swapping the occasional burger for a plant based option, and would probably look like basically a plant based diet with a couple of servings of meat or fish a week, a little dairy and a few eggs.

    The fact is the vast majority of the population will never go vegan.

    I say this as a huge admirer of Gregor, and a former vegan of 5 years who eats mostly plant based now. 90-95% plant based is a far more realistic goal for the population

25. As a Greger's fan I must say, all hail the King of Reason, Gil Oak-Tree! The 44 min went by so quickly!

26. Michael Greger helped me turn my horrible diet around to a healthier one. Gil Carvalho helped me see that when it comes to health claims, we should focus on outcome based data from quality studies in humans and not trying to bend / misrepresent those studies to fit a certain agenda. Thanks Gil!

27. It's interesting that hundreds of thousands of nutrition studies have been done and yet the debate goes on. How many billions of dollars have been spent? I think congress should pass a law requiring that nutrition studies can only be done on lean, muscular men and women. If they were to do this, researchers would soon discover the obvious, and they would stop doing all these studies, and then Dr. Gil can move on to his next "Made Simple" series. Maybe "Photography Made Simple!"? "Men's Fashion Made Simple!"?

28. Dr. Greger should have come up with a chart with lines. How about interviewing Dr. Greger?

29. I appreciate you scrutinising Vegan doctors. I'm a Vegan myself, have been for 5 years. It's good to hear a balanced perspective.

30. I think the guy on the left is everything that's wrong with today's food cults. Overconfident in his manipulative claims

31. I find hypothesis (and argument in the video) that people who want to replace red meat (as allegedly unhealthy food for the risk of heart disease) will replace it with even unhealthier substitution (junk food, sugar, seed oils …) weak and not very convincing, because those people are usually more health conscious. That was the reason to get rid of the allegedly "unhealthy" red meat in the first place. So I could argue that they replaced it mostly with allegedly "healthy" plant whole food and that would mean that red meat was not worse than its plant food substitution.

32. 21:06 Saturated fat in the blood from de novo lipogenesis, specifically palmitic acid if I recall correctly – this has a fairly strong association with multiple diseases, including CHD – do you have a citation for "often raise apoB" please? Latest meta analysis has shown no change in LDL-c in overweight/obese.

33. What an amazing presentation! There holes in both their arguments.

34. The only thing I would say I disagree on, is the effect of IR to CVD, which is rapidly proving to be massive. You could consider having a chat with Robert Lustig who has huge experience on this topic. Otherwise, perfectly reasonable arguments.

35. Not all diets are fit for all individuals. Best thing you can do is maintain a good body mass index.

36. I started my plant based journey because we had cancer in my family. My mother died in cancer, and for years I was convinced that a plant based diet protects us as a shield. This is how I discovered Greger, and the rest of the plant based doctors. Do I still believe firmly that cancer is preventable by eating just plants… Not so sure anymore. I wish we could have all the evidence. I will stay plant based as I still think this is the healthier way, and is good for the environment.
    I admire how perfectly you present arguments and how well you explain what the problem is with a certain claim. Thanks so much for this. Even the biggest Greger fan can't get upset. You are the number one on YouTube 👏

37. What about the The Esselstyn Heart Disease Program at Cleveland Clinic that’s been reversing heart disease for over 10 years and is based on plant based nutrition training and coaching alone?

    For the past ten years at Cleveland Clinic, over 1,000 patients have participated in Dr. Esselstyn’s program . . . why would a clinic as large as the Cleveland clinic carry on these programs and put their name to something that didn’t have results and research behind it?

    ‘Five of the 24 patients in Dr. Esselstyn’s initial study were told by cardiologists that they had less than a year to live. Yet, 12+ years later after following the Esselstyn Program they survived symptom free.

    Symptoms diminished (and often disappeared) within eight to 12 weeks of starting the program. Within months, these dramatic changes occurred:

    Cholesterol lowered: Patients’ average total cholesterol levels dropped from 246 mg/dL to 137 mg/dL.

    No cardiac events: Before the study, the patients had 49 cardiac events (coronary bypass surgery, angioplasties, etc.). None of the patients who adhered to the eating plan experienced a cardiac event within 12 years of follow-up.

    Excellent angiograms: Patients’ angiograms showed a widening of the coronary arteries — a reversal of heart disease.’

    I would bet a LOT of money on anyone with heart problems having a complete reversal of their symptoms if they adopt a 100% whole food plant based diet. There is no money in nutrition research so all we are ever going to get are small scale studies and anecdotal evidence, but there are stacks of these small scale studies.

    We need some more brave hospitals and health care providers like the Cleveland clinic to run these programs in every hospital around the world and the mountains of evidence will become too large to ignore and hopefully one day make it onto the governments nutrition guidelines and into doctors prescription guidelines 🤦‍♂️🤯🤯🤯 . . . we can dream!

38. Not meeting the RDA for a nutrient does not mean a person is deficient. The RDAs for all nutrients have a large safety factor built in. RDAs are not minimum requirements.

39. The thing is between the lines there is some truth to the protein shortage. When one is young one can eat like a horse. But if you get older health problems happen, stomach issues, poor appetite etc. It is not the well that need to eat meat But rather the sick. When sick people get frail even older person is wasting away the last thing you want to give them is chickpeas as they're only source of protein. Be much better to give them eggs and very tender easy to digest meat. That will keep them alive. I'm not for or against anything but just saying the issue is complex. PS, I just listened to more of your video and you make a lot of sense.

40. I usually consume many low carb fruits, especially berries and avocados. I also eat colourful, mixed salads with lots of leafy greens and steamed mixed vegetables. My snacks are: brazil nut, walnuts, and almonds.
    I eat cheese, butter, chicken, eggs, turkey, duck, lamb, and fish; mostly salmon, sardine, and tuna; occasionally I would've mussels, oysters, shrimp, lobster, and crab.
    I also drink 2 litres of plain water daily and exercise; especially walking.
    Since I'm doing all the above my type two diabetes and cholesterol have been much better!
    Btw, very interesting video! Thanks to everyone; God bless you all 🙏❤

41. First of all, great video as always. Secondly, and more importantly, over the last few years because of some unfortunate circumstances I've watched hundreds and hundreds of videos on nutrition and diet and have read a dozen or more books on the subject, and after all that, I can say that in my opinion this is absolutely the most well-balanced, reasoned and reliably informative nutrition and diet channel on youtube. Keep up the great work.

42. Thank you for these analyses. Your explanation doesn't require your audience to know medicine, biology or statistics, just to have some capacity for logic. Helps greatly to filter out the vast majority of bombastic food proselytisers on YouTube masquerading as nutrition experts and who rely on pushing buttons and arousing easy emotions to push their dogmas.

43. "What blood fats?" The only blood fats are triglycerides.

44. Love your Science critiques, one of the best on Youtube, thankyou, However Your comments about ethics are opinions based on philosophy and not scientific

45. Very well done Gil!

46. Your channel might not grow as fast as the more controversial channels, but i thank you for actually "following the science". And thank you for giving us tools so we can do the same.

    I wonder if its the nature of the internet that forces creators to shout louder or just human nature that makes hard to take in nuanced information. Whatever the case, I believe you to be on the right side of things.

47. as a vegan myself dwelling deep into conspiracy theories while being on the science/data side; Dr Greger has failed me big time with those comments.

48. I used to look at both these guys regularly. Found Gregor good for info on plant based diet. I suppose he wasn't going to be overly measured in this forum. When I listened to Ivor he was into calcium score, lost interest when he was going through his covid conspiracy phase, see he moved onto carnivore diet now

49. 26:02 That “HEALTHY LIFESTYLE” picture includes Emmental cheese which is a saturated-fat bomb. And it also includes shrimp and salmon which are food with questionable overall beneficial effects on human health. Interestingly, it doesn’t include any legumes other than something that looks like either green beans or pea pods. Finally, it also includes a shoe and some sort of portable audio player, even though more often than not the use of shoes and listening to music through earphones do more harm than good to human health.

50. Refreshing as always. Though it does seem it's not only Greger's stance that is being scrutinised here but also Cummins so I did wonder why only the one name was mentioned in your title? I don't know much about Gregor but I've encountered Cummins before and quickly discovered he's clearly mastered the art of deception, obvious bias, cherry-picking, misrepresenting science and indulging in all manner of logical fallacies – all being his usual MO in his presentations. This was most apparent in his numerous COVID-related videos. As the "Fat Emperor" he's clearly in the low-carb, keto tribe. Many of these grifters, regardless of which tribe they subscribe to have amassed huge tribal followings and earn a very good living as a result. And while most claim to be science-based they're actually doing science a grave disservice IMO.

51. Ive watched many of gregers videos. Some great some not so great. Im not a vegan nor would ever want to be, nor am i a heavy meat eater. Balance with animal/plant foods is what i believe. Me im a carb freak. Nit processes though. Nuts, seeds, whole grains, fruits, veggies. The combos are endless and when mixing some fish, poultry or meat its the iceing! Ie: a great cassarole of whole wheat or lentil pasta with rich tomato sauce, paste and tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic, onions, spinach, chopped kale, boursin cheese, parm reggino, ricotta, herbs/spices galore with Bison. Thats nutrition and comfort. But a good gym workout first or a good run.

52. Hi – Mic the Vegan is another youtube channel that focuses on scientific literature related to diet&nutrition – could you comment on any of his videos?

53. Greger has 50yrs of Blue Zones studies behind him — every other "evidence based" nutritional research is ALL situational / low polling data / extrapolation errors. Longest Living / Longest Sex Lives are found in people who eat low amounts of meat / dairy / eggs and high amounts of beans, corn, squash, grains, veggies.

54. There's just too much with respect to BCAA, choline, heme iron, glycoproteins, polyphenols and carotenoids, TMAO and so much more for the carnivore diet to have anything left to stand on. The vegan diet has already won, but it is still to be determined by how much.

55. My blood work after a period of stress and boredom eating sugar and fast food was very bad (for my liver only).

    My results are improving after a reduction in sugar and refined carbs only.

56. I'd like to see a debate between Liver King and Greger lol

57. Nice, well balanced review Gil

58. I haven't found a good critique of Gregor… until NOW

59. GBTV is the Fox News of Britain. It's an appalling channel.

60. Quack versus quack. When I first became interested in plantbased nutrition Dr G seemed very convincing but the more I've learnt about the nuances of nutrition the less seriously I can take him. Thanks for this video Gil.

61. Thank you for providing and teaching us how to view “experts” views especially when they bring up studies.

62. Another great video. Thank you for your work.

63. A whole food plantbased diet really helped improve my immune system and my lung issues. My bloods are great. So if you can be healthy on a plantbased diet and that type of food is available to you why would you choose one that hurts animals and the planet?

64. This was a real trainwreck of a debate and I feel like it was set up more for theatrics than a genuine debate from each side of the diet spectrum. It would be great if you had a look at some of Greger's claims about the vegan (vs omnivore, carnivore) diet and whether they stack up with the science. I am a follower of his and incorporate the 'daily dozen' most days but feel that he is dogmatic and perhaps biased toward the vegan (cf medical) community. For example, he completely ignores pescetarian diets and doesn't acknowledge benefits of eating fish because it would be contrary to his plant based ideology. Great content as always!

65. Oh man. Hadn't seen this. I generally like Greger bug he bombed this one. I mean the whole thing is garbage so whatever. Lol

66. I'm from the UK and this is a right wing news outlet. It was set up to be the fox news of Britain. So this is typical adversarial debate. Dr Gregor did terrible. I thought there was a big risk between unprocessed red meat consumption and cardiovascular disease. But when you said that quote at the end off the professor that the evidence is weak. Is that true. I thought in we are all confused about red meat you said the preponderance of evidence points against eating red meat

67. You're doing God's work. Thank you Dr. Carvalho!

68. Gil, you are my hero! Thanks for the video.

69. Ah gammon news!

70. I'm 2mins 6seconds into this and can't WAIT for Greger to slay this guy 🙂

71. Greger is too biased for me. Just want the facts.

72. Thanks again for your continued evidenced-based discussions. While I agree that Dr. Gregor could have done a better job in presenting his arguments, it's clear that Ivor Cummings was engaged in systematic factual misrepresentation and distortions to an egregious degree. This video would have been better presented as a review of the flaws in this type of sensational media "debate," as well as the types flaws and fallacies debaters will resort to. A better way to address Dr. Greger's positions would be to review a compilation of comments he's made in his videos. Here, most of the problematic claims were actually made by Cummings.

73. Wow,Thanks Doc. Great informative analysis. I've learned a lot today

74. Thank you. You are the much needed voice of reason.

75. I love your videos so much. Unbiased, not dogmatic, truly science-based. My own way of thinking is always checked and recalculated after every video I watch. Thank you so much for the great content.

76. I really enjoy your hard work to really show what the science is and how it's apparent inconsistencies are (often) due to the design of the studies. Thanks for bringing reality to the world of nutritional evangelists. Such clarity is rare in a world where everyone is trying so sell their recipe for the ultimate diet. Thank you.

77. More people are using the internet over the last 40 years and heart disease has gone up. Conclusion: The internet causes heart disease. 🤣🤣🤣

78. I'm a passionate dedicated vegan for ethical reasons. I know that it's feasible to be healthy on a plant based diet and that's all that matters to me. I'm also a nurse with the duty of helping people to make healthy choices. Dr. Gregor's content has always seemed a bit far out to me though, so I have to have caution when listening to him. If we're talking pure chemistry and biology, optimal health can be achieved with numerous diets. But veganism is about the animals and that's why I do it and urge others to as well.

79. why can't a study be dismissed for a small sample? It should be IMO. What if it has 2 people and how can we know how many people are enough? if we had to look at studies, we should dismiss small and short studies all together. They should be treated as hypothesis generator at best. The burden of proof should be on the researcher.

80. It is refreshing to see critique done from facts/data and not emotions. Your approach of dealing with the data presented and not the individuals presenting it.

81. I thought the Ornish 4 were diet, exercise, stress reduction (meditation, etc.), and relationship (connection.)

82. The Caldwell Esselstyn program kept people alive who had been left for dead by their cardiologists – pretty amazing study.

83. Your videos are the best !
    As you always stress, we all like to construct certain simplistic statements. But it's wrong.

84. I really like your unbiased review, so hard to find that these days! I can't think of a nice way to put how intelligent the meat guy came off. Essentially zero appeal to science. I agree the vegetarian guy should have at least brought or clarified more sources. I will say though, from what I've seen from him, he's spoken positively of the Mediterranean diet in the past at least, acknowledging it is known for health benefits. He also just had other studies against things like fish and oil. To me it kind of seems like he's trying to pick the "best" parts of the Mediterranean diet and omit the rest. However I think your point that context matters is very important to keep in mind.

85. Bev let Ivor start and finish which is messed up also.

86. Great video Gil! This reminds me of the panel discussion with Campbell, Stoll, Ornish, and Greger on my channel titled "Epic Panel" they discussed the use of the word Reversal. I think Greger does this to get people excited, to make it sexy. Dr Fuhrman does this too. I love Greger's work, it is very inspiring, most inspiring. Fuhrman is very inspiring too. Ideally they could be equivocally as inspiring or more keep things absolutely straight up. But can they, can anyone?

87. Can you react to Layne Nortan

88. I was hoping this would be the scientific consensus on one of Gregor’s data heavy presentations on the top 10 leading causes of death. This had very good info but did feel more of a debate coaching bit. Would love for you to go over the data heavy presentations or even better one of his books

89. How about a series where you have people on where you have slight disagreements like this so you can have a discussion. Obviously this would have to be framed as such rather than a debate. You don't see that out there but I think your not confrontational approach would suit this you'd just need the other person to be the same. Mike the vegan comes to mind he goes quite in depth with studies but has done a video on the ornish study and oil and has come to a different conclusion than you.

90. One line goes UP, the other goes DOWN. Case CLOSED! 😆

91. I think one of the things that drives me nuts about the diet cult debates is just the total lack of awareness on how ecological health especially in the soil directly impacts general nutrition.

    The only reason why animal products can be nutrient dense is because of the biomagnification of said nutrients through the ecological pyramid.
    If you grow kale in depleted soil you are going to have less nutritional quality, When you feed a pig that kale there are less nutrients for it to accumulate- than if you had fed it Kale produced in an optimal environment.

    This also functions with contaminants- feed crops grown in contaminated environments then concentrate those contaminants along up the chain to the livestock and then eventually to the consumer.
    Turmeric root should be healthy unless it's grown in environment heavily contaminated with chelatable lead.

    So how something is produced oftentimes can matter just as much if not in many ways more than whether it be plant, animal or fungal ( myconutrients being novel and are also often neglected in these discussions, speaking as a mycologist).

    Leading forward from that- nutrient diversity and novelty and not just density are also important components to consider. Not everything that a pig eats is going to remain what it was- nutrients are metabolized and utilized. They are altered.

    This means that there are nutritional benefits to eating plants even if meat production is healthy and nutrient dense for specific nutrients. As there may still be novel nutrients from other sources that you are not receiving that could be beneficial

    If you need mineral content, but the plant that you're eating is grown in soil that lacks available mineral- or lacks the biology necessary in order to make that mineral available/to cycle it ( such as under the rhizophagy cycle, where plants utilize exudates in order to farm microbes for their own nutrition)-
    You won't be getting it in the amounts that you think you will.

    If we allowed for detailed soil reports to be available on packaging we'd probably find out far more about the nutritional quality of what we are eating than anything that we utilize currently for our nutritional information on the back of the box.

    The nutritional compositions of our food is relative to the environments in which they were produced.

    And that's not even getting into innate genetic or epigenetic factors, both in terms of relative gene expressions by the agricultural organisms that are being produced or for the gene expressions of the person doing the consuming.

92. I don't belive you, because you don't sell ancestral supplements. 🤭

93. I think Dr. Greger was frustrated by the amount of (I am sad to say) ignorance coming from the other side. That aside… the perception that the Mediterranean diet is the best diet also has a lot of problems, the association of olive oil with health is one of them, because of its anti-inflammatory properties, compare that with the anti-inflammatory properties of blueberries and you will see that it does not stick. Olive oil is a health promoter at best as it encourages us to eat more vegetables. We in Portugal see people stuffing their faces with steaks and burgers, but by adding some olive oil everything is alright. You can even argue that the typical Portuguese food dishes don't follow a Mediterranean diet, we can notice how the typical Portuguese Stew "Cozido à Portuguesa" nowadays has more meat and pure animal fat than vegetables. Portugal has one of the biggest obese populations and also we don't live as much as in other northern countries that typically don't follow a Mediterranean diet.
    Excelente video, como sempre!
    Um abraço Gil!

94. Thank you Gill for your relentless rationality! It's a gift, it's amazing and above all it's inspiring!

95. This was hard to watch to be honest since I hold Greger’s books in high regards and he was evidently not prepared well for this “debate”.

96. On health perspective: If you eat MOSTLY (most of your calories) ANY kind of animal derived foods, will be not healthy on long term. If you eat ONLY various whole plant foods (and B12) it will be healthy on long term. SOME good quality animal food probably will not impact your health, but why risk?
    On sustainability and ethic perspectives: Whole plant foods are also the clear winner.

97. I think the best thing about this channel is that it never attacks the people and there's no emotion attached to any statement made from either party. Thank you for the video; found it super helpful! 🙂

98. I suffer from Hyperinsulinemia. I was exercising 5 days a week for 6 months. No weight loss. I couldn't understand why until I tested my insulin. A year ago my fasting insulin was 316 pmol/L. I went low carb and within 8 months went down to 141 pmol/L started to lose weight. I decided in July to start a plant-based diet. I would eat chicken or fish on the weekend. But mostly ate legumes, whole grains, sweet potatoes, taro ( inhames in Portuguese), farro, etc. Very whole food nothing white except for potatoes within 2 months my insluin went up to 168 pmol/L then in November it was at 214…this was enough to convince me that a plant-based diet is not or me. I am now back to eating low carb and mentally and physically I'm feeling much better. The problem with nutrition is that people like Dr Greger and Dr Davis believe that all would benefit from a plant-based diet. The truth is find what works for you. With Hyperinsulinemia, I have found what works for me.

99. Good job, as usual.

100. All in all I believe Dr. Greger more than the horse pucky Ivor Cummings is selling! Myself, I had a heart attack and was heading for another when I read Dr. Greger's book and switch to a plant based diet. Six years later I have symptoms, my erectile disfunction is reversed, my BP is like new baby BP at 110/55.

I commenti sono chiusi.
