Food for healthy aging: Swapping just 1 percent of plant protein in place of animal protein was associated with significantly less age-related deficit accumulation.
Aging is the topic of my forthcoming book, How Not to Age, out in 2023. I can’t wait to share all of what I found!

Great video…thanks
👍 Whole food plant based for the environment and health; vegan for the victims!
Previous wording:
[…]and egg protein was the worst, meaning egg whites. Swapping 3 percent of calories of egg whites for plant protein was associated with more than a 20 percent reduction in overall mortality[…]

My Guy Dr G!!….Got all The Books 📚 !!!
Going for 120!!
Warren Buffet is Pushing Mid 90's and His business Partner Charlie Munger almost 99….Said if eating green vegetables extended his life 5 years He still wouldn't eat them….."I like to Enjoy what I eat"….
I love this channel!
Noch nicht auf deutsch. Aber hoffentlich bald
적절한 신체활동과 충분한 수면이 필요
Gotta eat them plants!
Aging is sexy. If we don't age we're like a plastic bag that won't decompose 😊
There are about 500,000 people right now living over the age of 100 that have not yet died from cancer or heart attacks but less than one percent of them are in those so called blue zones. So paying attention to these blue zones and false Adventist studies is pointless since it does not include the other 99% which are the real deal.
Wishing there is a Dr. Greger for dogs. Hate the dry dog foods.
0:21 All of the blue zones eat modest amounts of meat. It is disingenuous to imply that any amount of meat is a net negative, which this channel constantly does.
Yeah, I'm trying to eat a diet that is majority plant based.
It’s unbelievable that we still have to pursued (many) people to eat healthy plant based Whole Foods when almost 1/3 of the world’s population are obese and the environment is literally breaking down in front of us
Good information. Thank you 👍🏼🙏
Bill Pearl and Jack Lalanne were eating a lot of egg whites and they live till 96 ……..
I'll stick with my meat thanks
❤❤❤❤❤
I already have this book.
Dr Gregor, after your banana smoothie video, I did some research and due to some lingering confusion please enumerate. The antinutrients, which include lectins, oxalates, phytates, phytoestrogens and tannins, are thought to restrict bioavailability of key nutrients, while other studies conclude they may have health promoting effects. I know cooking foods inactivates most antinutrient effects. In addition should we avoid bananas, peal apples etc when cooking isn’t possible ?
If you clear your mind from the things you learned it is so obvious. There is not even an argument. No Animal argues if what it eats is good for them or not cause they don't get manipulated by Food and Pharma Industries. We lost the connection to our roots. We lost logic and fear is the easiest way to manipulate Humanity.
why do get the impression that this channel only promotes vegetarianism.
I love red meat good protein.

HUGE difference in quality of life and longevity. Vegetarians eat artery-clogging, cardiovascular disease causing, high saturated fats such as eggs, butter, cream, whole cow’s milk, ghee, etc. Vegans on a whole foods, plant-based diet do not. There is a lengthy study available online that reports the big differences in health and lifespan between Loma Linda, California omnivores, vegetarians and vegans. The vegans outperform the other two groups by a significant margin in both health markers and longevity.
My name is Greg this dude has taught me so much I'm a Greger jr
Recommendation for future videos. Nutrition and testosterone levels. Nutrition and mental health – I’m aware there are some videos already. Great channel I find nutrition fascinating and practical because in the west we have a lot of control in our choice of what to eat and impact our life and others (cooking, grocery hauls) for the better.
Dr. G. The case you and other with the same perspective have made is convincing. But tonight I wondered: If maybe 50 percent went plant-based, can the global ag system produce the plants? Oh, I'm sure Big Ag will go after some newly popular foods. But will it be enough? My own conventional doctor asked if I could afford to eat healthy. But my collected insurance for this doctor's services is a lot. So my thought was "either pay here or pay there."
