If you got inflammation try avoiding carb and sugar, You'll see the result your self.
I followed the guidelines being taught by this documentary for many years! Ended up over weight, bad blood work, inflammation all through my body, ended up trying a high-protein high fat low carb diet, weight is better, blood work is better, most of my information is gone, have lied to my primary doctor the whole time telling him I was doing what he said, best advice he has given me- keep doing what you're doing, Most doctors lie to their patients, I know mine did
I am 40 years plant-based low fat. I look decades younger than my years, am on no medication and am an excellent shape and body weight. My sisters and other family members have been predicting my death from malnutrition since i was 19. They are not well, bloated and on statins - most are on the carnivore diet. I am very grateful i got the right information so early in my life about plant-based diets.
People have success on different types of 'diets' (actually lifestyles), like WPB, VLC, etc. The BOTTOM LINE is that success comes from ELIMINATING processed foods.
This is a truly great documentary. I was fact-checking it 4 years ago and decided to go fully plant based. Best thing I have ever done for my health and weight. After 40 years of eating animal crap and dairy I actually got my health back. And you know what? My testosterone levels increased dramatically, and after 4 years I will never go back to the animal foods.
the fact that people still think that cholesterol is bad is mind blowing, cholesterol is bad when you have inflamation. i will do what worked and still works for me, on a carnivore diet for 2 years and I fell perfect
I recently switched to a Whole Foods, Plant Based diet that excludes Salt, oil, and sugar. This month the doctor who has wanted me on a Statin, something for my blood pressure, and Metformin for my blood sugar says I don't need any of them. And I've lost about 50lbs. I've known for a long time that I SHOULD go Vegan for my health, for my conscience, for the planet. But I had no idea what a tremendous difference it would make so quickly in my health.
I ate American diet which is high in carbs , sugars, very low fat and I ended up with fatty liver , high bad cholesterol, I.e. very low density lipoprotein and ended up with 2 strocks despite the fact that I'm not diabetic. I went on a strict low carb, high fat and protein diet. My liver was relieved totally, my cholesterol is within normal levels and stopped lipitor. I'm totally keto rite now. And I'm good for 2 years.
I used to follow some of the doctors they use in this video. I've since learned that for me, my carbohydrate intake has to be 20 grams or less per day. It's the only way I reversed my T2D and got off all of my diabetic medications. It was a plant based diet that helped worsen my metabolic syndrome and ultimately contributed to my T2D diagnosis. Saturated fat is not the problem. It's the carbs (sugar, fructose, and all carbs) that are the problem. We've been lied to for over 60-years, and we are suffering from the results.
I suffered from metabolic syndrome (obesity, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, and high blood sugar). I went whole food plant based no sugar oil or salt and I lost 65 pounds, all my conditions greatly improved, my gums stopped bleeding, and erections and energy returned. I used to have an appetite that was never satisfied; whole foods cured it. I no longer use a sleep apnea machine. Finally, the food is cheap-Beans, lentils, rice, potatoes and seasonal apples. Also, I save money by not having to buy pills and visit the Doctor. I am thankful to all the vegans who suffered attacks to reveal the truth to me.
"When we focus on "animal protein" we misplace other nutrients" that is so so true. I have definitely noticed that myself over many year's time.
Very good video. I turned vegan in 1991. The cruelty of animal farming and environmental damage caused by the meat industry my motivation. I expected it to kill me after years of medical ltreatment and negative advice against it . Thirty plus years on i have never looked back and no toxic medicines.
I started no fat plant based 4 1/2 months ago. I can't believe the difference in my diabetic numbers and how I feel. It's amazing!!
I just started changing my diet from an everyday meat eating diet to now a more plant based diet and no red meat at all. More and more veggies and fruits, and I have to say that my issues with constipation have completely disappeared. I regularly visit the bathroom which is something that never use to happen. I have more energy and my mood is great. You can’t go wrong with changing your lifestyle habits. I learned a huge lesson, my father passed 2 years ago and he had high blood pressure and high levels of cholesterol. When he passed I just knew that I had to change my life because I want to live a healthier life.
Very interesting documentary. I was vegetarian for many years, then vegan, then raw vegan. I became sicker and sicker. I switched to a low carb way of eating. Some animal protein (organic, farm raised. chicken, turkey, lamb, some seafood). Lost weight, triglycerides are 57, cholesterol 185, lowered bp etc. I just feel better over all. It’s been a long time. I wonder if different diets work differently from person to person. Find what works for you.
The more vegetarian I became the worse I felt and the poorer my quality of life. My blood pressure continued to rise. Low carb keto has improved all my stats and I haven't felt this good in years. You can't argue with results.
Wow! I knew this before, but it needs to be repeated over and over again until people start to listen. As always, I cried when the showed the pictures of the animals. My beloved fellow beings on this earth, my siblings, how is such cruelty possible? Please, let this film be a wake-up call for many - I'll certainly ty to make it so!
Its been 1 year since I turned vegetarian and i dont take dairy product too. i feel great .
I would definitely check to see if the makers of this YouTube video have their own agenda. Anytime a documentary leans hard in any one direction you have to be skeptical.
