Thank you, Hannah! Over the years, despite the early issues within the online vegan community, you've remained a constant voice of reason. It's so hard when 'health' gurus online get sick from their restrictive plant-based diets and blame veganism for their health problems. Positive influencers like yourself allow non-vegan audiences to see that there are tons of us out here sustaining normal healthy lives!
Thank you for sharing. When i 1st watched dr McDougal’s video i was on a keto diet that left me hungry all the time. Having had my tongue removed due to cancer led me down that path & i was having trouble swallowing the meat & fish that i had to eat. I was put on that diet by my oncologist. The moment i heard dr McDougal said plant based diet w/ lots of starch can reverse some cancer, i shouted out hallelujah coz i no longer have to eat all those animal proteins. I went cold turkey quitting meat, fish & dairy and never looked back. The only thing i miss from time to time is cakes & pastries. Cakes i can bake myself, vegan version oil free. The moment i made the switch i was so much happier and my body doesn’t seize up as much. I sleep better and recover better from “strenuous activities”. It has been 2 yrs now and i can only keep going. Cancer treatment medically is so stressful to the body & so toxic that i wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy. I wish you lots of luck on the baby project. I got 2 kids of my own & they’re my pride and joy.
This is, hands down, the best advice I have heard anyone give. Clear, well spoken, respectful and, most of all, sensible. Thank you so much! And you look amazing!
Beautifully said. As I commented in someone else’s video earlier, your video is a beautiful way of sharing your heart without tearing into someone else’s. Thank you.
Hannah! Thank you for sharing this video. I've noticed several popular TH-cam leaders who are addicted to health (orthorexia) turn to extreme short-term diets (starvation, water fasts, juice fasts, etc) and then blame being vegan on their health issues. It's insane. A balanced vegan diet isn't remotely related to extremist methods of altering the body. I've been vegan for 7 years, and my health has been incredible. Thank you for sharing YOUR story! I send you so much love, girl!
It's funny how many people are quitting. I quit for a year after 5yeaes and guess what I came right back to my -vegan diet. Once I stopped following youtubers period I really figured out how my body thrives. Plus I feel better ethically and physically.
You are one of the biggest reasons why I went vegan. I’m so glad I found your videos. I’ve never felt better. It has also helped years of health issues disappear. Thank you for being such a strong and honest human. 🌱✨ I’m one year vegan in May. 🙏🏻
10:30 YES! Vegans can still get cancer or have asthma or have serious medical problems. A healthy vegan diet will not fix genetics. Needing medical help does not mean you're a bad vegan. THANK YOU! More people need to say this.
Amy Montgomery, I agree with what you said. Vegans have to realise that there's health problems that aren't diet/lifestyle related that can't be cured by any diet/lifestyle because it is in their DNA. I have a illness myself that can't cured by food because of that and I know other vegans that also have illnesses that they would still have if they weren't vegan because it is genetic.
We are all going to die eventually regardless of whether we eat healthy, eat vegan or eat omnivore. Some people act like if you don't make it to 100, your efforts to stay healthy were a failure or something... come on. Saw this with Andreas Moritz. My great grandfather lived a high quality of life, no major health problems, independently, til age 98, then went to assisted living and passed away relatively peacefully of old age at 103 in the late 80's. He ate like most vegans do today (from what I understand and saw as a child) beginning in the early 1900's to the late 1980's. None of his descendents followed suit and ate a SAD diet, for the most part... and he outlived them by a solid 25 years each... all his children and grandchildren, who did not even live as long as their parents.... Except us great grandchildren are still here (we are doomed if this trend continues)... we are all in our late 40's, early 50's. But, there are some people who lived long and independently on beer and chips too, although they seem to be the exception to the rule... but, the best chance for most people is to focus on foods that promote health and avoid junk, regardless. If a plant based diet is the approach, go for it... if something resembling a blue zone diet is the approach go for it... if you don't want to... eat chips and drink beer... we all have choices and who knows how long anyone will live or what kind of maladies we will suffer or not along the way... we can do what we generally know to prevent maladies, but there is no guarantee for anyone
Tomorrow will be officially 3 weeks of 100% plant based foods for me! Your videos have been a huge inspiration for me. I’ve been following you for almost two years now.
Hannah! I watch your videos often, and this is by far my favourite one!! It's so true that the vegan diet can be tweaked to bring a certain result - higher protein, higher fibre, less fat, etc. Plant-based diets can be extremely diverse, and I appreciate you mentioning that. Sometimes I feel like people assume we (vegans) all eat the same diet - usually assumed it's only raw, very low protein etc. Thanks for sharing!
You do know fiber was a scam by the grain industry? Basically everything you've heard about fiber the opposite is true, and in fact starch is the one doing the lifting and fiber all the bloating and gases and constipation. Though it does reduce the absorption of carbs because you are inflamed... Can't digest properly.
I’m so happy that you’re a true ethical vegan! Have been unsubscribing from ex-vegans and will stick to channels of true authentic vegans, much love to you!
Beautifully put Hannah. Kudos for not dropping names. A lot of discord going on and this was the best way to approach it I think. Stay Vegan and Live Long 🌱
appreciate you. I'm 23 and I've been experiencing the same thing you have throughout your weight loss, drinking, smoking, going vegan, gaining weight etc. this is why I've followed you from the beginning. your path is so similar to mine it amazes me. I'm 23 and I've been vegetarian for 9 years and 4 years vegan. its hard watching all the old youtubers i watched for inspiration into my early years of learning about veganism. It also makes me mad I watch their videos and im like maybe this isn't best for me, but deep down I know its possible to live this lifestyle. ive gone through so many trial and errors and being subscribed to you has changed my life. thank you for making this video. its frustrating when I feel like I have no right guidance on this journey when it comes down to this stuff. but I know its all very possible and im not giving up.
Great advice and honesty. Much needed this week 😊 and yes, the doctors and researchers are the ones to pay attention to!! Fruit works for me but I don't eat it exclusively, I still eat cooked sweet potatoes, veggies and pulses and I eat enough to be full, not slamming in too many calories than I need, I'm only a tiny vegan 🐹 you've inspired me to share my recipes and thoughts on youtube but in an honest and balanced way. Thanks Hannah. There are different ways to build a healthy vegan diet with whole foods.
just listened to this......a year after everyone else it seems! Love this girl! Very sensible. Very approachable. Very likeable. Very sane! I am actually not a vegan but the basic principles of this way of eating is very sound. And I love carbs so it rings my bell! Thanks Hannah for being you ….. and bothering to put your life out there for all of us to take inspiration from. Truly, madly, deeply helpful! x
Speak the truth & shame the devil!! You nailed it, Hannah. As a critical care nurse for 14 years & a vegan for 28 years this coming May, I agree with you 100%.
Absolutely! Great video, thank you Hannah. I don't know if this goes for all the ex-vegans but the ones I have seen have all followed more extreme versions of vegan diets, which is just unnecessary. I hope they return to veganism again
I've loved your videos for years, but tonight I said, YES! A huge thank you to you for your transparency. One of my favorite books ever is "Nourishing Wisdom" and learning a mind-body approach to nutrition and well-being. Well done Hannah!
Love you girl! I always look for your videos because they are so real and down to earth.....got my sister and her sister-in-law in Canada to watch your vids as well. Just wanted to say I always look forward to your videos.
Clearly never in history there were vegans but there was always vegetables, these doctors are quacks... Worst of all, if you have problems then she advises you to go to the quacks! Because as shitty as they are regular doctors will tell you to just eat normal food, normal food creates normal body conditions. All vegan sweet super condimented stuff was always called Junk food for a reason.
I'd love to learn more about how you adjusted your diet to balance your hormones. I've read several books on the topic, and everyone needs to tailor their life differently. However, I'm curious to hear your journey. 🌱💚
Love you Hannah! You are a household name in my circle and I am so happy you exist. We always watch TH-cam on a big tv at our house. Having your videos on, even just playing in the background, is just a real source of joy and comfort for us. I don't think I'll ever not be a fan no matter where life takes you. I hope you see this but I know you're in high demand! You look so beautiful today and that shirt is so freaking cute! Have a great week :)
Thank you Hannah! This is the best video response that I have seen so far in regards to vegans starting to eat animal products and how everyone can be healthy and vegan! Everyone should do what works best for them! And we definitely need to stop demonizing whole plant based foods like nuts, seeds, and fruit! And stop doing crazy things like a multi-day water fast! I have been a strict vegetarian for almost 30 years and a vegan (on a whole foods diet) i for several years with no health issues. I have so many friends who do the same.
Love how you're recommending doctors, people who actually have been researching and living this life for a long time. Loved watching this video, thank you.
I just wanted to say that I appreciate everything you share on your TH-cam videos. I have been WFPB for almost 2 years and the information I have been able to glean from you is immeasurable. Please keep it coming, I look forward to every new vlog you put out. I don't always agree with what you have to say, but that's what gleaning is all about, use what you can, discard what you can't. Please do not get discouraged in what you are doing and in what you believe in.
You speak so much sense and that is why you are my favourite vegan youtuber, you are the picture of health and I thank you for your straight talking and for always sharing your insights, I bought your book, and it's not just a book full of recipes but the best and most comprehensive nutritional guide I have seen out there. So I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all you do and share. xxx
Thank you thank you thank you...I was never one to do the raw diets, high fat, water fasting, juice cleanse stuff ever because when I first started out I found out about Dr. McDougall and the high starch diet felt so right and also kept me full..but great point about allowing yourself some room to go out to vegan restaurants. I used to feel so guilty if I ever went off the diet to eat these processed foods. Guilt and stress aren’t worth it
THIS is an extremely important message at a time like this. I was surprised years ago that people put so much creedence in Freelee & Durian but thank God, that era is gone though Durian still around sprucking crap. Hannah, great video ❤
Hannah, I support you 100%. I have had to deal with alot of stuff being a fitness/yoga/ personal trainer. These are our truths we have sought out. I went to Judy McFarland who in the 50s opened up her store Lindberg Nutrition. She knew I was Vegan... I sought answers. Like you I saw my needs. Knowing whay works for you and all plant based food is healthy. Swinging one way or the other does not work for everyone. OD on Supplements is not good; but knowing what you need is best. I can not as a trainer prescribe things... yikes no! I can only talk from myself. Yes being Orthorexic is dangerous or purest mind set. You are so wise seeking out a plant based doctor. I think you are right on. You really needed to bring this out into the forefront of your channel. My friend is a youtuber... What works for her...works for her. I hope you stay well and happy. I enjoy your videos. Peace be with you. Namaste'💓

Thank you for this video, and for being consistent, not just dropping out of your morals over health issues, but figuring out the root cause and getting better. I think the main issue is sometimes people think being vegan will fix everything but the time we live in it’s very easy to fall out of eating unhealthy and many vegan alternatives don’t contain a variety of things. I’m trying so hard to eat better, less vegan junk food, but even how I eat now I don’t gain weight nearly as fast as I used to.
I love this channel! Acknowledging what we don't know is the wisest thing to say.... Also redirecting to resources... very science based! I love it! This channel is worth watching for Plant Based News and nutrition as well as following and even buying materials from... books!
HANNAH, just want to say I have read all the books from the doctors, very valuable information. But I want to thank you for making vegan taste so good ! I love the recipies you have shared over the last few years ! Thank you so much. I am sure that I have been able to stuck with it because of the great tasting food.
Hi, Hannah! Thank you for making this video! I love how you stress that you are not an expert and to see an expert for issues. So many young people watch these flip/ floppers and will be influenced by them. Thank you for being down to earth. I’m a mom of three young boys, my youngest being 13 weeks, and I’ve had two healthy vegan pregnancies. I’ve been vegan for almost 7 yrs and haven’t had any issues. My husband has been vegan for six. We eat basically the way you eat and we are all thriving!! Thanks again for making this video! You’re awesome!
I love you so much Hannah! I'm so proud to be a follower of yours! I've been following you as long as I've been vegan (almost 3 years) and the way you approach eating healthfully has really positively influenced my life. Also, thank you so much for making this video. I actually hadn't been a follower of any of the ex-vegans until Raw Alignment (which most of her followers basically knew this was coming anyways) and it kind of really put me down when she released her video, but you posting this video today has really lifted me back up. Honestly, you were my first vegan TH-camr and I can't really describe how much you've helped me, so thank you for being here and being awesome!! ✌️💕
@@abimorrisonpossibleplantba9783 Because some people don't have anything better to do then be a negative space in this world. Its unfortunate bc we need more love, light an positivity among each other.
Thank you, Hannah for posting this! Everything you said was sooo necessary for our community! I like many have been a bit discouraged to see the shift many once vegan influencers have made, mostly for all the new comers who might be swayed to think they should go back to meat etc. Its so good to have such a large influencer say something educated while still sticking to the ethics we vegans stand for! I know this will help so many people who might be questioning their eating habits. You’re a gem. Sending you all the love!
logical, levelheaded, critical, scientific AND intuitive ( most people choose this or that, when it should be both simultaneously because they are intertwined ) willing to research, does yearly bloodtest to stay up to date, seeks professional plant based doctors, not afraid of medical help, willing to try everything before going back to eating animals and betraying her own values... you madame earned my respect. good job. keep up the good work.
So interesting! I just posted something about this subject. My husband is doing a more starch diet and after constantly trying, I stopped losing weight, started gaining and feeling bloating. Turns out what works for me is G-Bombs. Mainly because I'm HIGHLY Insulin Resistant. Type II diabetic, hypothyroid, PCOS. I'm on insulin so the excess insulin stores as fat. Any fat in my diet raises blood sugars and my numbers are higher with white potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice, pastas, etc. After chatting with another WFPB Type II diabetic who lost a lot of weight, I'm finding that we as Insulin Resistant folks need to cut out the starches like potatoes, rice, etc. until we're less insulin resistant and THEN add those WFPB starches back. I felt so confused and discouraged because my husband was making headway and I just hit a road block. I recently mentioned that every body is different. What works for my husband doesn't work for me and that's okay! It shouldn't mean defeat if our way doesn't fit the mold. It's the end result that counts. Thanks for the informative video. Loved it Hannah!
YOU are the reason I went vegan & now I have my own small channel trying to inspire others to incorporate a plant based diet. You’re truly an inspiration ❤️
This is a really great video, Hannah. Another good resource for doing a plant-based diet sustainably is Pam Popper (she has a TH-cam channel) and her company is The Wellness Forum. She's a naturopath in Columbus, OH, who is closely affiliated with Mcdougall, Esselstyn, etc, and her business is all about helping people make informed decisions about their health based on actual scientific research, how to talk about your health with your doctor (whether or not they're plant-based), and she offers a ton of online classes, a coaching program, etc. She also answers all her own emails so she's accessible and super passionate about helping people thrive on this diet. Just wanted to share because I've learned sooooo much from her and her videos etc. Anyway- sending you love!!
wow thank you for actually stating some science, I went vegan bc of listening to gary null for 10+years on the radio, hes a vegan nutritionist hes been vegan for more than 35 years.i think its important on a vegan diet to get all the vitamins you need and one thing these raw foodists go wrong in is some veggies actually need to be cooked to release there healthy properties example" broccoli and mushrooms" after watching alyse and rawvanas bs videos today i needed to watch a real vegan, thanks for being a REAL vegan!
I love this video. I think it's important to remember it's not about perfection but it's about trying to find a sustainable diet that is moral and ethical. There is vegan junk food and processed foods if you need that. There are vegan foods that are fortified to contain a lot of vitamins, minerals, fats and proteins we need so that we can be efficient in our eating (I happen to like to graze all day anyway). I hate when people say it's unnatural or impossible to live your life vegan because people in non-western societies have been living and eating like this for generations, for centuries! It is completely doable! Beans, rice, vegetables and fruits, they contain all you need.
Thank you so much for making this video Hannah! It is greatly appreciated especially in what seems to be going on with all of the vegan influencers not being vegan anymore!!! Keep up the beautiful work and letting your light shine ✨
This was lovely Hannah! I’ve only been vegan 2 years, but no issues and I’ve never felt better than ever! I eat very similar to you + a little junk of course!
I have totally embraced the Okinawan/Tarahumara staples. I make a big pot of soup with sweet potatoes, corn, beans, squash, various greens, and chia seeds almost every day. It's fast, simple, and super healthy. That soup makes up probably 85-90% of the bulk of my diet. Once you embrace a variety of starchy veggies as the base and bulk of your diet, this becomes really easy.
THIS! This is why I have loved you and your content from the moment I found you. This is why I refer anyone that is curious about a plant based diet to your channel. Thank you for this video and all of the information you have provided over the years.
You have been a big inspiration to me since going vegan almost 2 years ago. I appreciate your emphasis on doing what works for me, because I believe that’s the key in sustaining this lifestyle.
Thank you so much for the links. I was surprised to see that there are no plant based doctors in Seattle, there are a couple in Vancouver WA, which is three hours away, but it would be worth it. I believe there are some plant based nutritionists in Seattle. I would like to suggest that plant based eaters who suffer from digestive issues and IBS check out a book called "What To Eat When You Can't Eat Anything". It is a Low FODMAP vegan cookbook. Following a low FODMAP vegan diet totally turned my IBS around, and it helped me identify the foods that I couldn't eat. Definitely anyone having health issues should see a real doctor though. I ran the low FODMAP diet by my doctor, who is not vegan, and he said, try it! After a few months I introduced each food group back and found the only thing that caused symptoms was gluten. I had beeb diagnosed with gluten intolerance and peanut allergy in in childhood, and mistakenly believed that I could have "small amounts of gluten". I can not. I suppose that I am lucky that my health issues were so easily managed by an elimination diet, but I suspect most people can manage their health more creatively than simply adding animal products. Definitely, vegans should talk to vegan doctors! Thank you so much for the links, I will absolutely look into the possibility of seeing one of the WA based plant based docs!
Thank you for the excellent and well timed information & inspiration. You are one of the best vegan role models - not to put pressure, but keep on sharing, even repeating yourself. Immeasurable value in your work. One essential concept about dealing with nutrition issues on a plant based diet: as a vegan our challenge is to seek and find PLANT BASED SOLUTIONS rather than a quick fix from other solutions. Animal products may fix a problem, but they are not the only solution, and definately not the best ETHICAL solution. xx
I really appreciate your willingness to share what you have learned and what you use in your life. I've tried this and have loved the food and great results. Thank you.
Enjoyed your video as I recover from my Western intervention (emergency gall bladder removal, ambilical hernia repair)😒. It wasn't in my plan of a fun thing to do, it wasn't on my bucket list, but pain makes you do things you never thought you would. I'm researching now because I did my yearly blood work and it wasn't what I wanted to see, this surgery, plus I'm doing a spit test for female hormones next month to see where I'm at with all those jewels 😂. So we definitely have a advocate for ourselves. Loved the video! I love your Veiw on only supplementing when needed but not living in fear of suppliments. Can't wait for the next video and congrats on your speaking engagement in the vegan world!!💐
Thank you, Hannah. I have taken my time on this journey adopting things which I am ready for. I will read the books you talked about here, too. I appreciate your honesty and humble mindset.
Hannah I'm not Vegan, but I love your channel. Your a very well balanced person with what I see as good advice. Looking forward to learning more delicious foods ( I use your ideas for inspiration and side dishes).
I've had a similar Journey To You Hannah. I started off following a high carb low-fat vegan raw fruitarian diet. Then a HCLF vegan raw till 4 diet. Also, I used to be scared of supplementing. But, through all of my years of trial and error I still believe that the 80 10 10 diet is the most ideal for human beings. With that being said we don't live in an ideal world and raw fruitarianism is difficult to implement when you have I history of food addiction or just a genetic predisposition to gaining weight or being diabetic. That's what I found. If I were in the tropics and had access to organic fresh fruit everywhere then I would totally follow a fruitarian diet. But being that I live in a heavily industrialized Society like most of us, I have found what works for me is definitely low-fat but higher protein and also high carb.
Thank you this can be so so hard . I have been attempting to be plant based been struggling. I'm quite sure I'm doing it wrong not eating enough of the rainbow . I've been on a American diet had detox terrible headache I'm sure I have deficient however I still feel better than I did eat have you processed food and meats. I went to see a healthy coach still struggling with flavorful food. So far I have loved all of your receipts. Very hard to find a doctor on Google . I love the way you address this topic with class .❤️
Thanks for the video and your humility. The link to finding a plant-based doctor is helpful. It was nice meeting you and Derek on the HHaS. Keep those videos coming!
I never leave comments, ever. But I honestly appreciate this video SO much. I think you are extremely mature about this topic. I’m glad you’re here who has struggled and made it through and I love that you touched on western medicine. Thank you!!
This is exactly why I love you and follow you. Thank you for the plant based doctors link as well. This is exactly what I need in my life right now as I deal with EDS and it’s very hard to figure out what I need to be doing on my own, especially when regular doctors really don’t know much about nutrition let alone EDS and what a person with EDS needs to do nutritionally. I’ve been doing so much of my own research but like you I’m no doctor. I’ve been vegan for nearly 4 years. I’m better for it on many levels. I’m looking forward to getting medical help from a doctor who is plant based who will be equipped to monitor my nutritional values and recommend plant based ways to support my body even with EDS. Bless you Hannah! 🙏🏻
Excellent video. It was good to put this video out especially with a unfortunate trend of ex-vegans (probably were never vegan) putting out videos. I don't do fasting, high fat, low carbohydrate diet, raw diet, fruit only diet I have a balanced vegan whole plants foods based lifestyle with lots of vegetables, fruits, grains, seeds, nuts, legumes, spices and herbs etc.
Great video and excellent points. Thank you for sharing the link to plant based doctors! I’ve been looking for one and using the link you provided, I found one right near my home.
I've been vegetarian for over 7 years and am now vegan (so thanks for the video) due to food intolerance (recently found dairy was a big trigger for IBS and I had gone off eggs because they gross me out). I'm worried about getting the right nutrients etc so I feel like your next video will be very useful to me!
Hannah, thank you for being smart and reasonable. I have really appreciated seeing your balanced views and well researched lifestyle over the past few years. Keep doing what you do! I know you’re not perfect as none of us are, but you are real and that is very inspiring.
Love this video thank you for inspiring me to eat more potatoes and be more vegan. It’s so hard right now when no one else I know is vegan and being pregnant. The baby is so picky and it can be very hard getting enough vegan food. Thank you Hannah! I always get excited when you post a new video ♥️
As a small vegan youtuber, you are a breath of fresh air. I love you so much. ❤️ I’m an ethical vegan so I will never change. I went vegan after becoming a wildlife photographer. It competely changed me. I love nature and animals so much. I eat a wfpb diet with the occasional vegan junk foods and treats added in. It keeps me sane, satisfied, and happy. It’s about long term sustainability to me. I eat a rainbow of plant foods and I feel amazing! I also love and trust the plant based doctors and the literature. I met T Colin Cambell last fall at Charlotte VegFest and it was a great moment! ✌🏻
I definitely agree with finding what works for you. Myself, personally, I can't eat low fat. I've tried to in the past and it just never worked for me. I find fat to be the most satiating macro for me. When I try to just eat a hclf diet, I'm ravenous constantly. I need a good balance of carbs, plant proteins, and whole fats to feel my best. Especially with my hormone issues, fats are key. But, everyone is different. Some people feel better eating higher protein, or higher carb. As long as it works for you, that's what's important.
I unsubbed from RA awhile ago, the only thing she has ever been consistent with is never following through with anything and changing her mind with the wind. No one should be taking advice from her or giving her money.
I'm not even disapointed, I never expected anything from such a toxic person. It was obvious for so long that she's not vegan.. And she always just saw veganism as a diet. A liar and a scammer, that'a all Alyse is
Thank you, Hannah! Over the years, despite the early issues within the online vegan community, you've remained a constant voice of reason. It's so hard when 'health' gurus online get sick from their restrictive plant-based diets and blame veganism for their health problems. Positive influencers like yourself allow non-vegan audiences to see that there are tons of us out here sustaining normal healthy lives!
Blake Abel 👊🏻
It's been great to see her grow, she's one of the best vegan influences 😊
I agree I don’t post much but I’ve been following HCH for 4 years she’s my rock. In October it will be 5 years WFPB no issues😁😁👍
Well said. I totally agree 😊
Blake Abel 👊👊
Thank you for being reasonable.
Thank you for still being rational.
Thank you for still being Vegan.
@Prqzuqb K. I should hope not, lawl.
All of these people praising you right now are going to say they never liked you after your im no longer vegan video
Calling a vegan rational. 😂😂
Thank you for sharing. When i 1st watched dr McDougal’s video i was on a keto diet that left me hungry all the time. Having had my tongue removed due to cancer led me down that path & i was having trouble swallowing the meat & fish that i had to eat. I was put on that diet by my oncologist. The moment i heard dr McDougal said plant based diet w/ lots of starch can reverse some cancer, i shouted out hallelujah coz i no longer have to eat all those animal proteins. I went cold turkey quitting meat, fish & dairy and never looked back. The only thing i miss from time to time is cakes & pastries. Cakes i can bake myself, vegan version oil free. The moment i made the switch i was so much happier and my body doesn’t seize up as much. I sleep better and recover better from “strenuous activities”. It has been 2 yrs now and i can only keep going. Cancer treatment medically is so stressful to the body & so toxic that i wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy. I wish you lots of luck on the baby project. I got 2 kids of my own & they’re my pride and joy.
Have you watched Chris beat cancer. He educates people based an scientific evidence and also interviews many people who beat cancer.
This is, hands down, the best advice I have heard anyone give. Clear, well spoken, respectful and, most of all, sensible. Thank you so much! And you look amazing!
Beautifully said. As I commented in someone else’s video earlier, your video is a beautiful way of sharing your heart without tearing into someone else’s. Thank you.
Hannah! Thank you for sharing this video. I've noticed several popular TH-cam leaders who are addicted to health (orthorexia) turn to extreme short-term diets (starvation, water fasts, juice fasts, etc) and then blame being vegan on their health issues. It's insane. A balanced vegan diet isn't remotely related to extremist methods of altering the body. I've been vegan for 7 years, and my health has been incredible. Thank you for sharing YOUR story! I send you so much love, girl!
It's funny how many people are quitting. I quit for a year after 5yeaes and guess what I came right back to my -vegan diet. Once I stopped following youtubers period I really figured out how my body thrives. Plus I feel better ethically and physically.
🙏💚
You are one of the biggest reasons why I went vegan. I’m so glad I found your videos. I’ve never felt better. It has also helped years of health issues disappear. Thank you for being such a strong and honest human. 🌱✨ I’m one year vegan in May. 🙏🏻
10:30 YES! Vegans can still get cancer or have asthma or have serious medical problems. A healthy vegan diet will not fix genetics. Needing medical help does not mean you're a bad vegan. THANK YOU! More people need to say this.
Amy Montgomery, I agree with what you said. Vegans have to realise that there's health problems that aren't diet/lifestyle related that can't be cured by any diet/lifestyle because it is in their DNA. I have a illness myself that can't cured by food because of that and I know other vegans that also have illnesses that they would still have if they weren't vegan because it is genetic.
Asthma is related to allergies provoked by lectins in some plant foods.
Most cancers are the result of carbohydrate processes inside the body.
We are all going to die eventually regardless of whether we eat healthy, eat vegan or eat omnivore. Some people act like if you don't make it to 100, your efforts to stay healthy were a failure or something... come on. Saw this with Andreas Moritz.
My great grandfather lived a high quality of life, no major health problems, independently, til age 98, then went to assisted living and passed away relatively peacefully of old age at 103 in the late 80's. He ate like most vegans do today (from what I understand and saw as a child) beginning in the early 1900's to the late 1980's. None of his descendents followed suit and ate a SAD diet, for the most part... and he outlived them by a solid 25 years each... all his children and grandchildren, who did not even live as long as their parents.... Except us great grandchildren are still here (we are doomed if this trend continues)... we are all in our late 40's, early 50's. But, there are some people who lived long and independently on beer and chips too, although they seem to be the exception to the rule... but, the best chance for most people is to focus on foods that promote health and avoid junk, regardless.
If a plant based diet is the approach, go for it... if something resembling a blue zone diet is the approach go for it... if you don't want to... eat chips and drink beer... we all have choices and who knows how long anyone will live or what kind of maladies we will suffer or not along the way... we can do what we generally know to prevent maladies, but there is no guarantee for anyone
Tomorrow will be officially 3 weeks of 100% plant based foods for me!
Your videos have been a huge inspiration for me. I’ve been following you for almost two years now.
Well said Hannah! Everyone should be doing their research! Very important message... Thank you! ✌🏻 ❤️
New fan from iraq ive been plant based for a month now still learning and experimenting gonna make it officially a life style next month 😀
adam richard congrats on your new journey !!
vegan from morocco
what foods are available in iraq? what grains, fruits, vegs do you have? describe your menu like what you eat, how many times a day.
Hannah! I watch your videos often, and this is by far my favourite one!! It's so true that the vegan diet can be tweaked to bring a certain result - higher protein, higher fibre, less fat, etc. Plant-based diets can be extremely diverse, and I appreciate you mentioning that. Sometimes I feel like people assume we (vegans) all eat the same diet - usually assumed it's only raw, very low protein etc. Thanks for sharing!
You do know fiber was a scam by the grain industry?
Basically everything you've heard about fiber the opposite is true, and in fact starch is the one doing the lifting and fiber all the bloating and gases and constipation. Though it does reduce the absorption of carbs because you are inflamed... Can't digest properly.
I’m so happy that you’re a true ethical vegan! Have been unsubscribing from ex-vegans and will stick to channels of true authentic vegans, much love to you!
Beautifully put Hannah. Kudos for not dropping names. A lot of discord going on and this was the best way to approach it I think. Stay Vegan and Live Long 🌱
You've really been showing your true colors recently and it's BEAUTIFUL! Your honesty and teachability make you GLOW!
Thank you so much for this video. So important and beautifully expressed. 💕
Your hair looks so beautiful!
And skin!!!!!
Looks don't mean anything, I've seen people that look good young on traditional diets too. People need to stop trying to connect looks and veganism.
Eric Caminero Umm they were just complimenting her lol.
Beautiful glow!
Eric Caminero my compliment has nothing to do with her being vegan lol
I love how honest you are. You are seriously going to be such an amazing mother🥰🌈💕
appreciate you.
I'm 23 and I've been experiencing the same thing you have throughout your weight loss, drinking, smoking, going vegan, gaining weight etc.
this is why I've followed you from the beginning. your path is so similar to mine it amazes me. I'm 23 and I've been vegetarian for 9 years and 4 years vegan.
its hard watching all the old youtubers i watched for inspiration into my early years of learning about veganism. It also makes me mad I watch their videos and im like maybe this isn't best for me, but deep down I know its possible to live this lifestyle. ive gone through so many trial and errors and being subscribed to you has changed my life. thank you for making this video. its frustrating when I feel like I have no right guidance on this journey when it comes down to this stuff. but I know its all very possible and im not giving up.
Great advice and honesty. Much needed this week 😊 and yes, the doctors and researchers are the ones to pay attention to!! Fruit works for me but I don't eat it exclusively, I still eat cooked sweet potatoes, veggies and pulses and I eat enough to be full, not slamming in too many calories than I need, I'm only a tiny vegan 🐹 you've inspired me to share my recipes and thoughts on youtube but in an honest and balanced way. Thanks Hannah. There are different ways to build a healthy vegan diet with whole foods.
just listened to this......a year after everyone else it seems! Love this girl! Very sensible. Very approachable. Very likeable. Very sane! I am actually not a vegan but the basic principles of this way of eating is very sound. And I love carbs so it rings my bell! Thanks Hannah for being you ….. and bothering to put your life out there for all of us to take inspiration from. Truly, madly, deeply helpful! x
Speak the truth & shame the devil!! You nailed it, Hannah. As a critical care nurse for 14 years & a vegan for 28 years this coming May, I agree with you 100%.
I just listened to you on the weight loss summit with Chef AJ. Nice job!! So much amazing information. Thank you for all your hard work Hannah!!
Same here! incredible intelligent young woman who speaks from the heart both here n in the summit
Thank you so much! The misinformation online is driving me insane.
Absolutely! Great video, thank you Hannah. I don't know if this goes for all the ex-vegans but the ones I have seen have all followed more extreme versions of vegan diets, which is just unnecessary. I hope they return to veganism again
I've loved your videos for years, but tonight I said, YES! A huge thank you to you for your transparency. One of my favorite books ever is "Nourishing Wisdom" and learning a mind-body approach to nutrition and well-being. Well done Hannah!
Refreshing and levelheaded; thank you, Hannah. 😁
Love you girl! I always look for your videos because they are so real and down to earth.....got my sister and her sister-in-law in Canada to watch your vids as well. Just wanted to say I always look forward to your videos.
You hair, necklace, green top, and what you shared all so spot on!
Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic advice about following the experts in veganism and health rather than a social media 'influencer'.
Clearly never in history there were vegans but there was always vegetables, these doctors are quacks... Worst of all, if you have problems then she advises you to go to the quacks!
Because as shitty as they are regular doctors will tell you to just eat normal food, normal food creates normal body conditions. All vegan sweet super condimented stuff was always called Junk food for a reason.
Ramiel not sure what you’re trying to say?
Why are you on this channel then,@@Ramiromasters? You clearly believe what you want to believe.
Thanks for this video. It has so much value in all this "drama" going on with exvegans. So from the bottom of my heart. Thank you. ❤️
I love how you tell people they should do their research! You’re so inspiring, thank you!
Thank you!!! For mentioning the DRs that know their STUFF!!! Thank you for this Vid!
I'd love to learn more about how you adjusted your diet to balance your hormones. I've read several books on the topic, and everyone needs to tailor their life differently. However, I'm curious to hear your journey. 🌱💚
Love you Hannah! You are a household name in my circle and I am so happy you exist. We always watch TH-cam on a big tv at our house. Having your videos on, even just playing in the background, is just a real source of joy and comfort for us. I don't think I'll ever not be a fan no matter where life takes you. I hope you see this but I know you're in high demand! You look so beautiful today and that shirt is so freaking cute! Have a great week :)
Hey there Hannah! Your such an inspiration! Thank you for all your ideas ! Love all your videos!
Thank you Hannah! This is the best video response that I have seen so far in regards to vegans starting to eat animal products and how everyone can be healthy and vegan! Everyone should do what works best for them! And we definitely need to stop demonizing whole plant based foods like nuts, seeds, and fruit! And stop doing crazy things like a multi-day water fast! I have been a strict vegetarian for almost 30 years and a vegan (on a whole foods diet) i for several years with no health issues. I have so many friends who do the same.
I am happy that Veganism works for you but not everyone can be healthy and Vegan.
Love how you're recommending doctors, people who actually have been researching and living this life for a long time. Loved watching this video, thank you.
Such a refreshing video amongst all the "I'm not vegan anymore" drama. Thanks so much for being levelheaded and amazing
Your experts are my experts. You rock !. I hope Derek realises how lucky he is.
I just wanted to say that I appreciate everything you share on your TH-cam videos. I have been WFPB for almost 2 years and the information I have been able to glean from you is immeasurable. Please keep it coming, I look forward to every new vlog you put out. I don't always agree with what you have to say, but that's what gleaning is all about, use what you can, discard what you can't. Please do not get discouraged in what you are doing and in what you believe in.
You speak so much sense and that is why you are my favourite vegan youtuber, you are the picture of health and I thank you for your straight talking and for always sharing your insights, I bought your book, and it's not just a book full of recipes but the best and most comprehensive nutritional guide I have seen out there. So I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all you do and share. xxx
Thank you thank you thank you...I was never one to do the raw diets, high fat, water fasting, juice cleanse stuff ever because when I first started out I found out about Dr. McDougall and the high starch diet felt so right and also kept me full..but great point about allowing yourself some room to go out to vegan restaurants. I used to feel so guilty if I ever went off the diet to eat these processed foods. Guilt and stress aren’t worth it
I’ve never been about them either. I can’t even do intermittent fasting lol
THIS is an extremely important message at a time like this. I was surprised years ago that people put so much creedence in Freelee & Durian but thank God, that era is gone though Durian still around sprucking crap. Hannah, great video ❤
What a great video, Hannah. Thank you for being so generous with your time, experience, and wisdom.
By the way, I’m digging The Boondocks podcast. You are so funny on it. And so down to earth. It’s another side of you and I enjoy it!
Hannah, I support you 100%. I have had to deal with alot of stuff being a fitness/yoga/ personal trainer. These are our truths we have sought out. I went to Judy McFarland who in the 50s opened up her store Lindberg Nutrition. She knew I was Vegan... I sought answers. Like you I saw my needs. Knowing whay works for you and all plant based food is healthy. Swinging one way or the other does not work for everyone. OD on Supplements is not good; but knowing what you need is best. I can not as a trainer prescribe things... yikes no! I can only talk from myself. Yes being Orthorexic is dangerous or purest mind set. You are so wise seeking out a plant based doctor. I think you are right on. You really needed to bring this out into the forefront of your channel. My friend is a youtuber... What works for her...works for her. I hope you stay well and happy. I enjoy your videos. Peace be with you. Namaste'💓

JG Lee - I agree. It's ageing her. You can see it dark circles,
Thank you for this video, and for being consistent, not just dropping out of your morals over health issues, but figuring out the root cause and getting better. I think the main issue is sometimes people think being vegan will fix everything but the time we live in it’s very easy to fall out of eating unhealthy and many vegan alternatives don’t contain a variety of things. I’m trying so hard to eat better, less vegan junk food, but even how I eat now I don’t gain weight nearly as fast as I used to.
Excellent talk, Hannah. Thanks for telling us how you do this thing.
I love this channel! Acknowledging what we don't know is the wisest thing to say.... Also redirecting to resources... very science based! I love it! This channel is worth watching for Plant Based News and nutrition as well as following and even buying materials from... books!
HANNAH, just want to say I have read all the books from the doctors, very valuable information. But I want to thank you for making vegan taste so good ! I love the recipies you have shared over the last few years ! Thank you so much. I am sure that I have been able to stuck with it because of the great tasting food.
Hi, Hannah! Thank you for making this video! I love how you stress that you are not an expert and to see an expert for issues. So many young people watch these flip/ floppers and will be influenced by them. Thank you for being down to earth. I’m a mom of three young boys, my youngest being 13 weeks, and I’ve had two healthy vegan pregnancies. I’ve been vegan for almost 7 yrs and haven’t had any issues. My husband has been vegan for six. We eat basically the way you eat and we are all thriving!! Thanks again for making this video! You’re awesome!
I love you so much Hannah! I'm so proud to be a follower of yours! I've been following you as long as I've been vegan (almost 3 years) and the way you approach eating healthfully has really positively influenced my life. Also, thank you so much for making this video. I actually hadn't been a follower of any of the ex-vegans until Raw Alignment (which most of her followers basically knew this was coming anyways) and it kind of really put me down when she released her video, but you posting this video today has really lifted me back up. Honestly, you were my first vegan TH-camr and I can't really describe how much you've helped me, so thank you for being here and being awesome!! ✌️💕
Well thought out video with no Bulls*t. Well done Hannah!
Did you watch the same video I did? It was wall to wall bulls*t
dude why are you here if you are just going to insult her.
@@abimorrisonpossibleplantba9783 Because some people don't have anything better to do then be a negative space in this world. Its unfortunate bc we need more love, light an positivity among each other.
@@rootedinplants Amen 🙏👌all they have time for is hate and all we have time for is love!
Thank you, Hannah for posting this! Everything you said was sooo necessary for our community! I like many have been a bit discouraged to see the shift many once vegan influencers have made, mostly for all the new comers who might be swayed to think they should go back to meat etc. Its so good to have such a large influencer say something educated while still sticking to the ethics we vegans stand for! I know this will help so many people who might be questioning their eating habits. You’re a gem. Sending you all the love!
logical, levelheaded, critical, scientific AND intuitive ( most people choose this or that, when it should be both simultaneously because they are intertwined ) willing to research, does yearly bloodtest to stay up to date, seeks professional plant based doctors, not afraid of medical help, willing to try everything before going back to eating animals and betraying her own values...
you madame earned my respect.
good job.
keep up the good work.
So interesting! I just posted something about this subject. My husband is doing a more starch diet and after constantly trying, I stopped losing weight, started gaining and feeling bloating. Turns out what works for me is G-Bombs. Mainly because I'm HIGHLY Insulin Resistant. Type II diabetic, hypothyroid, PCOS. I'm on insulin so the excess insulin stores as fat. Any fat in my diet raises blood sugars and my numbers are higher with white potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice, pastas, etc. After chatting with another WFPB Type II diabetic who lost a lot of weight, I'm finding that we as Insulin Resistant folks need to cut out the starches like potatoes, rice, etc. until we're less insulin resistant and THEN add those WFPB starches back. I felt so confused and discouraged because my husband was making headway and I just hit a road block. I recently mentioned that every body is different. What works for my husband doesn't work for me and that's okay! It shouldn't mean defeat if our way doesn't fit the mold. It's the end result that counts.
Thanks for the informative video. Loved it Hannah!
YOU are the reason I went vegan & now I have my own small channel trying to inspire others to incorporate a plant based diet. You’re truly an inspiration ❤️
Absolutely fantastic video. Keep up the good work Miss Hannah!
This is a really great video, Hannah. Another good resource for doing a plant-based diet sustainably is Pam Popper (she has a TH-cam channel) and her company is The Wellness Forum. She's a naturopath in Columbus, OH, who is closely affiliated with Mcdougall, Esselstyn, etc, and her business is all about helping people make informed decisions about their health based on actual scientific research, how to talk about your health with your doctor (whether or not they're plant-based), and she offers a ton of online classes, a coaching program, etc. She also answers all her own emails so she's accessible and super passionate about helping people thrive on this diet. Just wanted to share because I've learned sooooo much from her and her videos etc. Anyway- sending you love!!
This is the best TH-cam video I’ve seen in months. Thank you Hannah I agree with you completely!
Me too, very sensible video.
Hannah bringing the straight TRUTH. That's why I fwu!
wow thank you for actually stating some science, I went vegan bc of listening to gary null for 10+years on the radio, hes a vegan nutritionist hes been vegan for more than 35 years.i think its important on a vegan diet to get all the vitamins you need and one thing these raw foodists go wrong in is some veggies actually need to be cooked to release there healthy properties example" broccoli and mushrooms" after watching alyse and rawvanas bs videos today i needed to watch a real vegan, thanks for being a REAL vegan!
I love this video. I think it's important to remember it's not about perfection but it's about trying to find a sustainable diet that is moral and ethical. There is vegan junk food and processed foods if you need that. There are vegan foods that are fortified to contain a lot of vitamins, minerals, fats and proteins we need so that we can be efficient in our eating (I happen to like to graze all day anyway). I hate when people say it's unnatural or impossible to live your life vegan because people in non-western societies have been living and eating like this for generations, for centuries! It is completely doable! Beans, rice, vegetables and fruits, they contain all you need.
Thank you so much for making this video Hannah! It is greatly appreciated especially in what seems to be going on with all of the vegan influencers not being vegan anymore!!! Keep up the beautiful work and letting your light shine ✨
This was lovely Hannah! I’ve only been vegan 2 years, but no issues and I’ve never felt better than ever! I eat very similar to you + a little junk of course!
I have totally embraced the Okinawan/Tarahumara staples. I make a big pot of soup with sweet potatoes, corn, beans, squash, various greens, and chia seeds almost every day. It's fast, simple, and super healthy. That soup makes up probably 85-90% of the bulk of my diet. Once you embrace a variety of starchy veggies as the base and bulk of your diet, this becomes really easy.
THIS! This is why I have loved you and your content from the moment I found you. This is why I refer anyone that is curious about a plant based diet to your channel. Thank you for this video and all of the information you have provided over the years.
You have been a big inspiration to me since going vegan almost 2 years ago. I appreciate your emphasis on doing what works for me, because I believe that’s the key in sustaining this lifestyle.
Killer content! Love you, Hannah. you nailed it.
Thank you so much for the links. I was surprised to see that there are no plant based doctors in Seattle, there are a couple in Vancouver WA, which is three hours away, but it would be worth it. I believe there are some plant based nutritionists in Seattle. I would like to suggest that plant based eaters who suffer from digestive issues and IBS check out a book called "What To Eat When You Can't Eat Anything". It is a Low FODMAP vegan cookbook. Following a low FODMAP vegan diet totally turned my IBS around, and it helped me identify the foods that I couldn't eat. Definitely anyone having health issues should see a real doctor though. I ran the low FODMAP diet by my doctor, who is not vegan, and he said, try it! After a few months I introduced each food group back and found the only thing that caused symptoms was gluten. I had beeb diagnosed with gluten intolerance and peanut allergy in in childhood, and mistakenly believed that I could have "small amounts of gluten". I can not. I suppose that I am lucky that my health issues were so easily managed by an elimination diet, but I suspect most people can manage their health more creatively than simply adding animal products. Definitely, vegans should talk to vegan doctors! Thank you so much for the links, I will absolutely look into the possibility of seeing one of the WA based plant based docs!
Thank you for the excellent and well timed information & inspiration. You are one of the best vegan role models - not to put pressure, but keep on sharing, even repeating yourself. Immeasurable value in your work.
One essential concept about dealing with nutrition issues on a plant based diet: as a vegan our challenge is to seek and find PLANT BASED SOLUTIONS rather than a quick fix from other solutions. Animal products may fix a problem, but they are not the only solution, and definately not the best ETHICAL solution. xx
I really appreciate your willingness to share what you have learned and what you use in your life. I've tried this and have loved the food and great results. Thank you.
Rational. Reasonable. Beautiful. EXCELLENT!
Enjoyed your video as I recover from my Western intervention (emergency gall bladder removal, ambilical hernia repair)😒. It wasn't in my plan of a fun thing to do, it wasn't on my bucket list, but pain makes you do things you never thought you would. I'm researching now because I did my yearly blood work and it wasn't what I wanted to see, this surgery, plus I'm doing a spit test for female hormones next month to see where I'm at with all those jewels 😂. So we definitely have a advocate for ourselves. Loved the video! I love your Veiw on only supplementing when needed but not living in fear of suppliments. Can't wait for the next video and congrats on your speaking engagement in the vegan world!!💐
Thank you, Hannah. I have taken my time on this journey adopting things which I am ready for. I will read the books you talked about here, too. I appreciate your honesty and humble mindset.
Hannah I'm not Vegan, but I love your channel. Your a very well balanced person with what I see as good advice. Looking forward to learning more delicious foods ( I use your ideas for inspiration and side dishes).
Great video, Hannah! Thank you for this ❤️
I've had a similar Journey To You Hannah. I started off following a high carb low-fat vegan raw fruitarian diet. Then a HCLF vegan raw till 4 diet. Also, I used to be scared of supplementing. But, through all of my years of trial and error I still believe that the 80 10 10 diet is the most ideal for human beings. With that being said we don't live in an ideal world and raw fruitarianism is difficult to implement when you have I history of food addiction or just a genetic predisposition to gaining weight or being diabetic. That's what I found. If I were in the tropics and had access to organic fresh fruit everywhere then I would totally follow a fruitarian diet. But being that I live in a heavily industrialized Society like most of us, I have found what works for me is definitely low-fat but higher protein and also high carb.
Thank you this can be so so hard . I have been attempting to be plant based been struggling. I'm quite sure I'm doing it wrong not eating enough of the rainbow . I've been on a American diet had detox terrible headache I'm sure I have deficient however I still feel better than I did eat have you processed food and meats. I went to see a healthy coach still struggling with flavorful food.
So far I have loved all of your receipts.
Very hard to find a doctor on Google . I love the way you address this topic with class .❤️
Good, well balanced video. Thanks for your honest assessment and for shedding a light on all the peripheral vegan diets and why they don’t work.
Thank you Hannah for being another voice of reason on You Tube .
Thanks for the video and your humility. The link to finding a plant-based doctor is helpful. It was nice meeting you and Derek on the HHaS. Keep those videos coming!
so good meeting you too
I never leave comments, ever. But I honestly appreciate this video SO much. I think you are extremely mature about this topic. I’m glad you’re here who has struggled and made it through and I love that you touched on western medicine. Thank you!!
This is exactly why I love you and follow you. Thank you for the plant based doctors link as well. This is exactly what I need in my life right now as I deal with EDS and it’s very hard to figure out what I need to be doing on my own, especially when regular doctors really don’t know much about nutrition let alone EDS and what a person with EDS needs to do nutritionally. I’ve been doing so much of my own research but like you I’m no doctor. I’ve been vegan for nearly 4 years. I’m better for it on many levels. I’m looking forward to getting medical help from a doctor who is plant based who will be equipped to monitor my nutritional values and recommend plant based ways to support my body even with EDS. Bless you Hannah! 🙏🏻
Excellent video. It was good to put this video out especially with a unfortunate trend of ex-vegans (probably were never vegan) putting out videos. I don't do fasting, high fat, low carbohydrate diet, raw diet, fruit only diet I have a balanced vegan whole plants foods based lifestyle with lots of vegetables, fruits, grains, seeds, nuts, legumes, spices and herbs etc.
Great video and excellent points. Thank you for sharing the link to plant based doctors! I’ve been looking for one and using the link you provided, I found one right near my home.
I've been vegetarian for over 7 years and am now vegan (so thanks for the video) due to food intolerance (recently found dairy was a big trigger for IBS and I had gone off eggs because they gross me out). I'm worried about getting the right nutrients etc so I feel like your next video will be very useful to me!
Great video, thank you for sharing. Btw that green colour looks really good on you 🙂❤
Hannah, thank you for being smart and reasonable. I have really appreciated seeing your balanced views and well researched lifestyle over the past few years. Keep doing what you do! I know you’re not perfect as none of us are, but you are real and that is very inspiring.
High Carb Veganism: my favorite. I'm a vegan, not a fakir. Subscribed!
Love this video thank you for inspiring me to eat more potatoes and be more vegan. It’s so hard right now when no one else I know is vegan and being pregnant. The baby is so picky and it can be very hard getting enough vegan food. Thank you Hannah! I always get excited when you post a new video ♥️
As a small vegan youtuber, you are a breath of fresh air. I love you so much. ❤️ I’m an ethical vegan so I will never change. I went vegan after becoming a wildlife photographer. It competely changed me. I love nature and animals so much. I eat a wfpb diet with the occasional vegan junk foods and treats added in. It keeps me sane, satisfied, and happy. It’s about long term sustainability to me. I eat a rainbow of plant foods and I feel amazing! I also love and trust the plant based doctors and the literature. I met T Colin Cambell last fall at Charlotte VegFest and it was a great moment! ✌🏻
I definitely agree with finding what works for you. Myself, personally, I can't eat low fat. I've tried to in the past and it just never worked for me. I find fat to be the most satiating macro for me. When I try to just eat a hclf diet, I'm ravenous constantly. I need a good balance of carbs, plant proteins, and whole fats to feel my best. Especially with my hormone issues, fats are key. But, everyone is different. Some people feel better eating higher protein, or higher carb. As long as it works for you, that's what's important.
GIRL YOUR HAIR IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!💕
She'll always be my favourite vegan youtuber. I was so disappointed with Raw Alignment
Why are you disappointed she was getting sick from the following the lifestyle .
@@joseph233382 what are you even doing here??
I unsubbed from RA awhile ago, the only thing she has ever been consistent with is never following through with anything and changing her mind with the wind. No one should be taking advice from her or giving her money.
I'm not even disapointed, I never expected anything from such a toxic person. It was obvious for so long that she's not vegan.. And she always just saw veganism as a diet. A liar and a scammer, that'a all Alyse is
RAW alignment is not brainwashed as you are, so she did the right move
Very real and grounded video! Thanks for posting
