I'm 65, vegan for 33+ years. I'm fit, never on meds and all my parts work. Best decision ever.
I would love to interview if you're interested let me know send me a message veganlinked.com/contact
Hello, do you even never took vitamin B12?
@@mariotschenet1015 he probably does take B12 because he's vegan and doesn't get it from an animal that was supplemented with it or cross-contaminated with it via feces during the slaughtering process. So I hope he takes a simple supplement of B12.
Great interview. I'm almost 80, a wfpb vegan, and on no medication. I think the hardest part about being wfpb is the resistance from friends and family to embracing this lifestyle. I have a good friend who was just diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, and I'm going to attempt to talk to her about her diet. I have a feeling she won't give up her SAD diet, but I have to try.
where do you live? I'd like to interview you if I could! if you would like...
@@VeganLinked I wouldn't make a very good interview, but thanks for the offer.
But isn't the SAD diet much more than just a meat diet? Isn't all the highly processed food in the SAD diet the real danger?
Yes, Shirley. We had a neighbor lady who came down with cancer. My wife and I pleaded with her husband to try WFPB, but he baled at us. It is truly sad how they stick with the SAD diet.
@@shirleywolff611
Some of the best interviews are other normal humans like us. I’m guessing when/if you ever change your mind or more up to it you and you’re story would interest others more then you think and prob help others like your friend more then you know. ✌️
I am also 70 and vegan and plant based. Thanks so much Tim for trying to spread the word. I know there is a lot of resistance. I run 20 miles a week.
What do you eat in a day
@@our.secret1130 I eat sometimes kale, sometimes spinach, probably 8-10 servings of fruit (apples, bananas, a lot of berries in oatmeal etc), most of the time a good serving of mushrooms, brocoli and bell peppers with humus, oatmeal often with hemp, amla , fenugreek powder and hemp seeds, small amount of almond butter with chia, seaweed (those sheets are so good), barbara's shredded wheat with soymilk and walnuts (really good), sometimes rice or farro or quinoa and beans. Mostly unprocessed. I supplement with B-12, vitamin D and vegan k2
veganlinked is a liar, he deletes any answer that doesn't agree with him. and that is america.
he is afraid. without cholesterol we suffer, except we are hypercholesterolemia people.
I been eating 80 % raw plant base diet ..no salt ( salt rots your arteries and stomach lining ) no oil , I use lime on all my salads..I love the fresh lime ! easy to eat salads with no oil ! I have no arterial plaque , I look 30 years younger than people my age.
I eat no spinach because of oxalates are high in spinach ( I eat low oxalate plantbase diet ) I eat one meal a day sometimes I eat two organic apples if I feel hungry . I take 2 magnesium chloride in tablets , 6 mg of Boron mineral , B6-100 mg. and 1 mg copper and I eat raw ginger every day.

my second book i like is ;
Dying for a Hamburger: Modern Meat Processing and the Epidemic of Alzheimer's Disease Hardcover - July 1, 2005
www.amazon.com/dp/031234015X/?coliid=I2LR6UM93QK00J&colid=19UMQ0U06JRA5&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it
One in ten people older than sixty-five, and nearly half of those older than eighty-five, have Alzheimer's disease. It's widely accepted nowadays that memory loss comes with age. Alzheimer's currently robs at least 15 million people of their identity worldwide. This book makes the controversial claim that eating meat may contribute to the development of the disease. In Dying for a Hamburger, Dr. Murray Waldman and Marjorie Lamb draw upon documentary evidence, historical testimony, and inspired speculation to suggest that Alzheimer's: - is a new disease-elderly people did not experience symptoms of dementia in such alarming numbers in the past began appearing after modern meat production techniques were introduced- has soared in nations where these techniques are used- hardly exists in cultures where meat consumption is low- has been attributed to many deaths that are actually the human equivalent of mad cow disease.
They present startling evidence that Alzheimer's may be part of a family of diseases linked to malformed proteins known as prions. They hypothesize that the conditions that allow these brain disorders to be triggered are similar. They propose that mad cow, its human equivalent, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), other encephalitic diseases, and Alzheimer's may have a common antecedent. We know that a form of CJD is transmitted to humans who eat contaminated beef. And we are becoming increasingly aware of the need to monitor the meat supply closely to avoid a repetition of the mad cow scare in Great Britain. But suppose that Alzheimer's also involves prions--the evidence that points in this direction is growing. And suppose that Alzheimer's is also associated with tainted meat. This conclusion seems far-fetched--at first. In this compelling book, the authors come to a frightening conclusion about our seemingly insatiable hunger for hamburgers. Destined to provoke heated argument, this book is definitely food for thought.

I'm 64 years old. Vegan for 15 years and haven't seen a doctor in over 14 1/2 years. Couldn't imagine living any other way.
Awesome, where do you live? It might be nice to interview You if you're interested. Send me a message if you are and let me know where you are at veganlinked.com/contact
I'm 70 as well and I have not eaten any meat for 50 years and went vegan 22 years ago. No health problems and I don't take any medications. My usual cycling route is 50 km in very steep and hilly countryside. I am so grateful for what I have learned and thankful for my wonderful health.
Go vegan for the animals, the planet a d your health.
I'd love to get your story, if you're interested let me know!
@@VeganLinked My story is pretty boring. No major health issues that I overcame through diet. My secret is steady determination and a total lack of concern about what other people think of my lifestyle.
@@embraceuncertainty7127 yeah, but I want to capture it! Let me know if I may, if you would like that. Sharing as many of these long term stories as possible is powerful in normalizing this and makes a significant impact ❤
@@embraceuncertainty7127 I'm only 11 months in a plant based life style and what little you said helps me so imagine getting more would do for me and many others.. So consider sharing my friend. It matters, YOU matter...
@@wallacesousuke1433 you just got blocked too 🤣
I wish I was vegan long ago. Save myself from lots of pains and aches.
Love some of the things he says, it’s true you have to fight through some of the social stigmas but it’s so worth it.
I’m only 9 months WFPB but I’ve lost all of my excess 60 pounds and have boundless energy. This morning I did weights for 30 minutes then jump roped for 45 minutes and could have kept going. I’ve never felt this good and I love the food!!!
When he said "you're in it alone because you don't have much support from family and friends" that hit me.. Going through that right now!
I'm trying to eat raw vegan for health! Nobody gets that!
@@shantinaturechild3239 We get it!
Be strong. Don't expect any support from outside. You have got everything you need to achieve anything you want in life.
Life is about learning the art of living and it's new at every turn of the road. You should swear to stay true with your mission and be determined to surprise those people with your results.
I just love these Vegan personal stories..I’m 54, turned vegetarian 12 months ago and Vegan the last month and feeling great..I wish I was Vegan from day 1..better late than never 😊
Thank you so much for watching and commenting and so glad you found your way!
WFPB saved my life! I once was 320lbs and now I'm 145lbs. I have been WFPB for almost three years and will never go back.
Save the Animals and save yourself.
That’s incredible! Vegan Stories need to do a story on you!👏🏾
Great testimony Angela
There still is a lot of resistance. There is also a lot of new research and studies done that prove plant based for longevity. I don't enjoy killing anything. I even put flies out instead of killing them. I'm 81.
I'm so thankful that my wife was onboard when we started switching to a plant-based diet. Having support makes such a huge difference!
Yes it does!
One of the most genuine talks on veganism I have heard. Really appreciate your candid feelings and experience with your father and others. Diet, exercise and fasting are the secrets no doubt to living healthy!
Delhbiz, yes, WFPB eating with exercise and fasting. Our bodies are meant to thrive.
😍
Thanks for explaining the truth. Being a CAD patient with 90 percent blockage in RCA without any angioplasty my angina has reduced atleast 50 percent after I become vegan with fruits and raw vegetables for last three years.
Thank you for your testimony. We must always persist in getting the word out ❤
That is great you eat a healthy form of veganism!
Went vegan for 6 months, never got sick over winter (for a change), lost 4 stone , was the healthiest I've ever been, came off it and now have all sorts of medical issues, going back on from today
Remember vegan is not a diet it is a philosophy. But the healthiest way of eating is a whole food plant-based diet consisting of legumes grains greens fruits veggies mushrooms nuts seeds herbs and spices in a variety of each and that's vegan as fuk! When you truly embrace the philosophy of veganism you will always be vegan and you will find a way to make the diet and lifestyle work. It would help probably to befriend someone who is vegan that you look up too if you can. Best wishes in your endeavor and don't be afraid to fail it's okay we all do. That's the path to success. And that is having the capacity for Applied failure. So keep learning and keep trying and if you need additional help then maybe consult with someone who practices lifestyle medicine :-) or reach out to the community! Thank you so much for sharing and your honesty
Wow he looks fantastic! Really shows how being WFPB can make you look at 70! And he’s so active. 👍👍
Thank you Melissa. Enjoy your health 🎉
He looks younger than some of my coworkers who are in their 50s. Makes me proud to be 8 years vegan at the age of 24.
The 50 year co workers must be smokers because brown looks like an 85 year old man
@@TV-ob1if No he doesn't
You are joking? He looks half dead
Is he depressed?
Lord forgive me but he does not look 50, he looks like late 60s. I appreciate his story though
Got diagnosed with cancer in 2021 and was a huge carnivore up till that time. After I got treated I switched to mostly WFPB. No meat since Sept 2021, did have fish from time to time but hoping to go fully WFPB. Interestingly, both of my parents had heart attacks as well as one of my siblings and i had high cholesterol. I was worried about blockage later but had a test this year and doctor showed no blockage at all. This has been challenging but my health and life depend on it. One of the best decisions I ever made.
if you don't mind me asking, what kind of cancer was it? do you have family history of cancer? and could you go into a little more detail on how going WFPB affected your health, and whether your blood work or other analyses reflected the change? also, have you changed the amount exercise you get since you started WFPB? thank you for your time.
The best decision you made for the life if Others, too 👏👏👏👏👏
@@georgemartyn5268 Ah good question. It's prostate cancer, and my father passed away from it, and had two uncles and a first cousin. I used to exercise before but now focusing on aerobics in addition to weightlifting. My cholesterol has come down and during a few blood pressure tests, the attendant nurses asked If i was a long distance runner given my resting heart rate 😗.
@@MParix must admit it feels nice knowing I'm not killing other sentient beings
@@dmcarden what is your resting heart rate?
Well said ! I’ve been vegan for 15 years. Best decision I ever made. Also an animal rights activist. He nailed it !
Awesome
An example of a great Human Being 🙏🙏
Thank you, Ron
Thank you for producing a real life example of how life changing being vegan can be. I'm 55 and been Vegan for 14 years, the best ever decision in my life has helped me be illness free and healthier than when I was in my 30s. Wise words in this video,help your self and help the environment go Vegan. Thank you. ❤️
Thank you David for supporting the transition!
What you eat daily basis plz
I think that eating a well balanced plant based diet can have some of the most profound effects on your own personal wellbeing and even contribute to environmental changes. Educational platforms can help, find something that engages you and experiment with it. What works for me may not work for you. All I can say is eat as clean as you can,eat fresh,raw, organic if possible, cut down as much processing foods as you can. Reduce things from your current diet slowly if needed. Removing dairy from my diet helped me clear a long suffering signus and breathing condition. Hope what ever you do helps in a positive way for you and the world outside your door.
It's great to meet Tim and hear his logical outlook, to see how well this lifestyle works, and to know he is a healthy, helpful ambassador for living a good life. I love that he cares about all of it - his own health and the health of other people as well as caring for the planet. And I especially appreciate that he cares for the animals who are so horribly exploited along the way in the current S.A.D. (Standard American Diet) boondoggle that is causing so much destruction and suffering on so many levels. Excellent interview! Really enjoyed it. Thanks to both of you.
It’s so good to hear how you and your wife support each other in this lifestyle. I’m with someone who complains everyday about his aches and pains and thinks it’s clever to make fun of how I eat . It’s very frustrating to listen to and not to say anything 😬
I really applaud you as I’m a carer for my husband and have to cook for him sadly I’m not fully vegan yet hopefully I’ll get there
It’s because a vegan diet isn’t optimal. You can claim it all you want, the science disagrees
The longest living people in the world are plant based this was proven in the blue zone maybe they had meat occasionally as a flavouring all the data I’ve seen proves this ...
Your'e not alone 🥰 keep going!
Hi Anne. Yes, I made the transition in 1988 during my first marriage. Holidays were challenging. I just kept reading from different sources to reinforce my opinion. I kept reminding myself with this saying, “Forgive them Lord for they know not what they do”
Being vegan is compassionate and kind to animals, the planet, and yourself. I see no reason not to be. :) Thanks for making this interview. I'll share it with others.
👍😊😊
Animals are to kill bleed and eat. But that you kill helpless veggies, while polluting the planet with fertilizers, farm machines, ships and fuel to drag that rabbit food all over the planet is sick. My dad made a healthy 93 eating sugar and never once working out...but only a vegan would suggest something that stupid.
@@TheDogPa How do the 80 billion farm animals, inhumanely, bread each year for slaughter get their nutrients? How do they grow so fat and fast? And where does their waste excretion go? With regards to sugar, I don't follow your writing. All I'll say is that every cell in the body needs sugar. We can't live on just protien and fat very long. You're probs just a troll anyway. Have a nice day.
@@Clarke1982 They eat grass in open fields, no fertilized, even round up with horses, all organic open fields. Meat is not bad because corporations produce badly...but veggies and carbs are simply poison for humans and are destroying the planet and there is no way to make that not be an abomination. Stop destroying planet shipping food polluting the planet. 100 times the carbon issue with farms. Look it up, you are clueless.
Thank you, Duncan
Brilliant story. I wish I had a father like Tim, such an inspiration. Wish you tens of years in good health to come!
Amazing video, thank you for sharing. Vegan for 5 years, my mom and sister the same, feeling great and never going back. ❤️
Thank you, White Truffle. Inspiring.
Just went plant based been 3 weeks and I love it
You won’t regret it!!!
@@adele5895 definitely enjoying it lol , learning how to make planted based food and it been good so far
You look amazing for your age! PTL~ I'm 58 yr and been vegan for 30+ years and most people think I'm 45 years old. I also take no medications and completely healthy. Personally, as a RN lost a lot faith in the medical community! I credit my plant based diet to God and the Bible! It was his original design and there will be no meat eating in heaven too!
I love pork it's keeping me healthy and strong!
@@lifesgoodeveryone5407:
Absolutely delusional. Dead animal remains are extremely toxic to human physiology, especially dead pig.
god and the bible: STOP SPEWING RELIGIOUS LUNACY
Yes!!!!!! Most definitely the medicine foods of God is the best and only way to get better.
He looks his age.
Beautiful message Tim Brown! You have convinced me to go whole foods plant-based diet again. I did it for several years and loved it. I fell off the diet and have been eating meat again for the past 3 or 4 years. You have helped me get back on the right path. Thank you, my brother. :)
William, thank you for your comment. It is so rewarding to know that I had an impact on your decision to return to a plant based lifestyle.
This was an excellent testimonial. I totally agree with your assessment that eating meat is an addiction no different than cigarettes.
What a great story. And how wonderful he was able to reconnect with his high school sweetheart. He looks so happy having someone that is on the same page as him.
Shared! Arteries as clear as a 16 year old. Vegan since 1988. V v low cancer or heart attack rates with vegans.
Fit for life is what made me a Vegan as well.. And it has been 25 years since then..!!
Lucky to have read that book at that point in my life...!
❤❤
Yes, Fit for Life was a real eye opener for me.
I started a 3 months ago
Plant based dropped 35 pounds
Blood pressure dropped 60 points.
Sleep better and now workout
6 days a week. Power yoga. Bikram yoga
And weight lifting. Soon going to start running
Again.

try to eat meat only one time a week..after a month ..try eating organic plant base .

God Bless you sir. You're so honest, concise and informative.
Great to hear from him thankyou for sharing this
Bless 🙌🏾 and thanks to your supporting wife. You sure look younger than your age and admire how active you are (weights, cycling etc.) - I trust you won't stop.
Thank you, Lwandile
He is a great Ohioan, which is where I was born. His story is very inspirational but also partly sad story about the issues that family members have. I want my parents to live longer and healthier as there is the usual suffering at degenerative diseases we see of people eating the standard diet, at the age of 80.
For one, my mother, father and brother all have hearing problems. I have a very hard time believing this is just 'old age'. A long term study of mental health in patients in two hospitals, showed diet had an enormous benefit. There are flaws with the study and there's only one, because it's not randomized effectively, but it's all we have.
Some things can't be changed but it is clear that diet can fix blood pressure for the vast majority of issues, allowing them to come off of the medicines completely, but only if they are strict on the diet and with doctor oversight.
Well, I have many things to change about myself, many, and it is said we need to start with ourselves. Still, it's painful I can't help my loved ones reduce suffering.
He's so inspirational! Thank you for sharing his story. 💚
What an amazing man. Thankyou Tim Brown. As a 54year old I’m finally doing what Tim does after doing it age 33 for 7years and went back to majority and feeling more ill mentally and physically. Caldwell esselstyn is my hero. Thank you vegan kinked.
Thank you Catherine. Yes, there is a lot of resistance out there, but good-hearted persistence will prevail.
This was a motivational interview...thanks for the video
So inspirational.
50 here & Thriving on Plant-based. Feeling Good is a great feeling! Awesome info!
This man is incredible. Is 70 years old and takes no medication and works out daily. How many seniors can say this? My respect for him and his wife.
If you want a healthier lifestyle, vegan and plant-based diets are the direction to take. We can testify to this. We lost 40 pounds in the past 5 months having a very active life. You feel and look your best when your body consumes plant-based foods.
I know plenty if people who are active in their 70s and non vegan it's not a big shock lol
@@rondarkman. Active doesn't equate to healthy.
@@cheezheadz3928
Are you saying they are unhealthy doc?
I switched over to a vegan diet a couple of years ago, & at sixty I feel more vibrant than when I was sixteen.....& even do the vigorous techno dance all night long at the dance clubs that dot the beaches down here in Goa India!!
it is a big shock, why would they want to eat animals when they don't have to. That's got to be a big shock, they were supporting the most abusive industries on the planet and unnecessarily ingesting their body parts, organs, and secretions.
Your a real inspiration! I’ve been vegan for 11 years now. Big love to you from London 🇬🇧
Thank you, Bivek. Love to you too.
You're a great example of this way of eating. You are influencing others by following your truth. Friends and relatives get the feeling that we think we're better than they are. I love that Dillon Holmes of Well Your World says he got tired of trying to help those who didn't want it. Now he has a great TH-cam channel, etc. For those who want the help.
Thank you for sharing 😊
Have I got the maths wrong but this man is 70 he’s looks so alert, fit and clear
Great story! You don't look 70 years old. I'm vegan 6 years and never eating flesh again. My days are filled with RAW fruit and vegetables! 😀🍉🥝🍎🍍🍌🍊🍑🥒🍐🍆🌽🍇🍈🥜🍄🌶🍒🍓🥔
They like to say a plant based diet reduces your testosterone, but you're still Manley.
I’m 53 and I hope that I am as healthy as he when I’m his age. Ignore those who are addicted to the S.A.D. It is very sad that they want to discredit what has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt with very stringent clinical trials. You can’t deny the science…
Thank you, Tim
And how are ur energy levels? How long did it take to feel difference?
Excellent video, thankyou very much!! 👍😊
Bravo to this man. Voice of true wisdom. Your lips to gods ears. ❤ Went WFPB in mid 50's motivated by terrifying health problems. Vegan now since 2016.
I became vegetarian in my country Argentina when I was 17., it wasn't easy, believe me., all they eat there is meat and on top of that my aunt used to work in a hospital in the department where they do plan the meals and all this ignorant dietitians told her that I was going to died because of the protein myth. I became plant based in 2003 after watching a video from dairy industry, I cried and couldn't believe how humans can be so cruel just to make money. I studied nutrition in 2011 and attended seminars from Caldwell Esselstyn, Collin Campbell, Neil Barnard and more and after I got my diploma I started doing consultations. Now I teach Yoga because it was so frustrating to deal with people that just believe what they hear on tv, and do what others doing without thinking about it. What I do now is that usually I talk about nutrition at the end of the class.
I am turning 67 soon and if I press the accelerator in the class no one can follow.
One think that wasn't mention in the video is the supplementation with b12 and also if you don't expose yourself to the sun to take d3.
Thank you for the video, but we have to remember that people want to hear good news only about their bad habits.
Never took a single medicine besides maybe ibuprofen or a couple of times antibiotics.
Congratulations! I'm from Argentina too and I know what you mean. There is an "asado" fetiche in our country, among higher and lower classes alike. It's really grosse and primitive. When I went vegetarian I was 20 and everybody attacked me. 6 years ago I went vegan and nobody attacks me anymore. They listen to me, they agree with, but they keep eating meat. It is sad. Just like you I don't take medication and I'm very strong
Thank you for your testimony Marcelo. Yes, I talked with a friend from Church the other day about a WFPB diet. She agreed with everything that I discussed with her but said that she could not do it because people would stop inviting her over for dinner. Amazing.
@@timbrown8454 people are selfish, they just care about themselves and also are weak, the don't have will power.
Now I don't try to convince anybody, if someone ask, I help., if not, I keep my mouth shut.
Great Interview!! Thank you !!!!! ❤️
Thank you, Annie
Great video. Thanks. ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️
I haven’t eaten meat for more than 6 years now. I don’t understand how people can be so blind as to what’s happening to all these animals everyday. Unnecessarily Inhumane and cruel!! We have to change. Thank you for sharing!!!
Big factor is there's no money in low fat, no sodium WFPB veganism and that's why its advocates are hated. Conversely, there is money to be had in holding up the status quo and thus people arguably become corrupted.
Typically people don't really give a crap about what they eat as long as it's affordable and it tastes good. The problem is the vegan food industry seems to like to gouge the customer. Why are vegan hot dogs more expensive than meat hot dogs? It's cheaper to buy basic ingredients and cook it yourself but there is no affordable vegan convenience foods.
@@vthomas375 You're aware this is exactly what has been promoted for the past 50years?
Am aware the status quo is being held up but are you?
@@vthomas375 what?
74 years old. I'm recently influenced by how now doctor Brooke Goldner recovered from lupus and other illness by adopting a plant based diet. Before her, I learned about green smoothies from Victoria Boutenko. I'm not where I need to get yet.
I interviewed Dr Goldner recently ❤
Congratulations Stephen. You are on the right path.
5 years this Thanksgiving on the Esselstyn diet post heart attack. Angina reversed. Feeling like I did decades ago.
My husband too @Carl Baum. Congratulations!!
Here, too. Just 6 months but we are committed for life.
Warms my heart to hear! Congrats and may you have health in abundance for many many years to come!
Thank you sir, I need your example
Are you on no fat or low fat to help?
woooow today you have so much vegan options, restaurants, vegan receipts online and vegan friends. But in 1988 that must be so difficult and you have to have a strong mentality to do your OWN things side by side with all skeptic meat eaters. I changed my diet in 2020 (daily dozen) and never bought again pure salt, oil or sugar to cook with it. Nori for salt, Dates for sugar and water for oil replaced.
Sir to see you with 70 healthy as you can, motivates me so much to keep going. Thank you very much for sharing your story with us 🙏🏼 Much 🫶🏻 from 🇩🇪 🌱
Thank you, Die for your support and comment. ♥️🎊
A lot of truth spoken there. We are addicted. We are lied to. We are inundated with advertising tempting us to eat any and everything that is bad for us.
Having support from family and friends is huge but many of us don’t have that.
He is a great example for us all. Good for him. 👏👏👏
These are great video testimonials. Thanks for sharing and keep ‘em coming!!
Thanks for watching and commenting. I have endless more to come! A new one every week :-)
I'm 17 and vegan.. cardiovascular problems run in family.. but i didn't turn vegan cuz i was scared.. yes i was scared..but not for myself..for the innocent animals..
Anyways ..as a premed.. eating healthy and working out on a daily basis helps me to concentrate more on studies..
It's so rewarding.. as a 6'1" girl (I've always wanted to become a skyscraper..) i love my muscular but feminine body ..(i hated my feminine body initially tho cuz everyone would think i was 18 when i was 14..)
Awesome! We should do a project together! Hit me up wfpb@veganlinked.com
Remember to focus on minimally processed vegan foods like beans, greens, vegetables, and fruits. Jeff Novick's 10 Fast Foods are great, quick, cheap recipes. Glad you are pre-med because you will have a chance to influence others. Consider letting the military pay for your medical school in exchange for a few years of service so you don't have medical school debt.
IM 34 and being vegetarian since 22 years old..
Now IM going step by step being a Vegan..
That's great! What about whole food-plant based though? Healthiest version of vegan.
49 years young and vegan since 2016, trying to eat more and more whole foods. Thanks for inspiration xxx
Oh, and teetotal since then too x
Congratulations Nichole on cherishing your health and your body.
Excuse me, Nichola.
Thanks for sharing this video
Wonderful. Thank you ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I did this all alone about 15 years ago. Five years ago, my husband got on board. It's so nice to have some support, but it isn't 100% necessary. People can change anything they want to change with enough willpower. After I saw my grandma's heart on the OR monitor after her heart procedure, I searched for a better way. I'm the only one in my family that doesn't have one or more degenerative diseases: cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, kidney disease, etc.
Thank you for sharing. Best wishes with your family ❤
Thank you for sharing, Suzy
I'm fully convinced and committed and can't wait to see where this journey takes me thank you sir 🙏🏾
Go ahead. A lot of support available
I wish you great success.
Thank you, BTNX. Your journey will be well worth it.
I love this video. Very informative! Thank you kindly! ❤
Thank you, Gloria
Thoroughly agree addictive nature of eating animal products.
Working through the urges slowly but more easily with each passing day but wow when it hits, it hits hard.
Patience with myself and others who don't get it is part of the compassionate nature of this lifestyle.
Fantastic testimony
Thank You 💖
i have read this one also, listened to john furman, so many Andrew Weil, God Bless you Tim and family, take care
Thanks for sharing this 👌
Thanks for the inspiration
My dad ate a heavy animal based diet(part of our culture) and he lived until 95 with no health issues at all. No meds, no pain, no broken bones, he was mobile until the day he passed. He never went to the doctor to have regular check ups. Same with my grandma. They ate the same way.
There are always exceptions to the rule, that doesn't make them the rule or necessary at all. Perhaps your dad would have lived healthier and longer or more at peace having not had to consume animals.
In the Book, ‘The Blue Zones’, it is noted that people eating a Whole Food Plant Based Diet are 50 times more likely to live until 100.
Animal consumption doesn't defeat the most deadliest diseases. But plants seem to certainly do that.
@@Abrahamos for the most part yes, plants are most protective but nothing is a panacea ❤
@@Osc1llateW1ldly sounds like they lived a long healthy life. Too bad they didn't have vegan twins to see how things compared all else equal had they not eaten any animals.
Very inspirational...Thanks
Great job!!! I have also been plant based for about 10 years. I am 65 feel great!
Thank you, Cathy. We must keep planting seeds. Even if just a little one.
So inspiring 🤠 thank you 🥰
44, ethical vegan since 14years,love you all for beeing vegan
That's the same year I turned vegan. What a journey its been, let me tell you. I'm happy I never suffered from the usual heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes. Nowadays, I keep an eye on my omega 3 to 6 ratio and vitamin D. Interesting and relatable video.
Very articulate testimony; thank you, Tim, and best wishes to you and yours. I hope you enlighten many of your fellow Americans and share your healthful lifestyle.
Great thanks 👍
I love his response to how we get our protein and I am going to use that next time I get that question.
I use it all the time! I really shuts most people up right away!😂
I've been a veggie since 1970 and "almost" vegan since 2020 and I've had the same experience with no one else around me with a similar diet. My decision was ethical rather than health based. Mr Brown's diet is much healthier than mine.
Bless you♥️❤️
Amazing! Thank you!
Im 36 I’m grateful to hear I have a chance to change my health. I’ve lived a life eating burger fries, cokes, ect and I’ve always been overweight. Been vegan over a year it’s a great life.
Get rid of sugar, carbs. Not of meat.
You can do it!!
kills, meat kills, it kills the animal and the people eating animals slowly but surely.
get rid of sugar, salt, oil, flour, and other processed foods like animal, animal are processed too. They got nutrients from plants and their DNA processed those nutrients for their specific body, not yours. You don't have to perpetuate unnecessary violence.
@@diegomargozzini8668:
You're truly hilariously stupid. Human physiology is literally optimized for carbohydrates, especially simple sugars. Depriving yourself of that is like depriving a car of fuel. In contrast dead animal remains are absolutely toxic garbage to human physiology.
What an awesome interview. Very inspiring!👍🏽👍🏽🥗🍠🥦
Hello!! Thank you for such a wonderful video!! We too live in Cleveland. In August of 2016, my husband was diagnosed with Stage 3B Colon Cancer. He refused chemo. We radically changed our diet and lifestyle, healing his body holistically. Wfpb is the diet of disease reversal. He remains cancer free and chemo free
Wow, I would love to do a video on this. Let me know if you're interested.
@@VeganLinked Sure!! That would lovely. How shall we connect?
@@barbaralee9564 where are you located? Or send me an email wfpb@veganlinked.com
@@VeganLinked We’re leaving for the holiday early Monday morning. I will be in touch after the holiday via email. Happy Thanksgiving!!
Great news, Barbara. I am grateful that you and Jeff have connected. So many could be saved from a horrific, painful death.
Amazing story, I'm also vegan and plant based is the best in life, what you said is true!👍
Thank you, Annie❤
Where is there a place to put information out for the public.. other than TH-cam? I’m looking for live, in person gatherings.
National Health Association Conference, Animal and Vegan Advocacy Summit, hopefully Vegan Summerfest will pick back up. Most cities have a Facebook group, meetup, vegfests...
I am a vegan for life. I applaud you for making this video, hope it reaches many people who fight for their life everyday. We are not made to eat meat otherwise we would have salivated by looking at an animal, we would have grabbed them and gouched out meat, but we can catch any animal including a chicken with our hands, running behind it. Check out Patrick Babumian.
Thank you Atul
We are made to eat meat not man made plants you're mentally ill
@@Serenity-tn4yn Each to their own. You missed the point if this man making a video about how vegan diet changed his life. I was a born vegetarian, but my forefathers were vegetarians 10000 years ago.
I believe it was meant for me to hear your story this morning. I met with my doctor earlier this week, and shared with her the thumping that I hear in my ear. She was concerned of my having pulsatile tinnitus. I'm 64 years old, and do try to eat right, yet I know I could do better. In my early prayer this morning, I asked God to tell me (generally speaking) what he would have me to know, and later on decided to TH-cam the difference between veins and arteries. Your story was playing silently in closed caption until I pressed it to hear what you were saying. I do eat fruits and vegetables, but probably not enough along with things that I know are not healthy for me. Clearly, this is the path that I should take in regards to my health. Thank you so much for sharing your story. I'm sure it will help many, along with myself, that will hear
I get that too when I don't take my multivitamins. Double your intake and see how you feel. I think it's lack of vitamin K and others found in citrus fruits mostly... I've been following Medical Medium and doing the lemon 🍋 water first thing in the morning and celery juice I make fresh.
If you really wanna live right don’t go vegan go full carnivore
Hi. It is good to know that you are taking your health seriously. Our bodies are precious miracles and for some reason we are prone to abusing them. The transition to complete healthy eating, for most, does not happen overnight. It is a lifelong process. Try your best to transition to whole green salads with lots of vegetables and a few fruits each day. Be kind to yourself. Lifelong habits die hard. Be mindful of each bite and chew well. Ask yourself, am I eating this certain food for the health of my body or just to please my taste buds. I wish success for you.
@@timbrown8454 thank you
@@debraemilligan thanks
Amazing, ur a source of inspiration for me... Thank q for sharing. My love & regards.. ❤️🤗👍🙏
Nice testimony! 😊
I am struck that in 1978 there was a book talking about high-fiber diet on the African continent when only now we are focusing attention on the role of fiber in maintaining long-term health! (The Hadza, etc.)
In the 70’s, a book titled “Diet for a Small Planet “ was written. I can’t remember the author’s name. That book introduced me whole food plant based eating. Still trying to become totally vegan.
@@highlanderhorses:
What's there to "try"? It's not like it's hard to be vegan, it's extremely easy. The first thing you have to rid yourself of is the idea that it's not. Look around this comment section, numerous people who have been vegan fot decades with ease. There's really no excuse.
Yes, actually that book was my first introduction to healthy eating after my father’s heart stopped after surgery. ‘Save Your Life Diet’, by David Reuben. The book inspired me to eat more fiber. Thank you for the reminder.
I love this. Somebody watching one of my videos accused me of using strong language and being “over the top” because I called eating animal products an addiction. I cannot tell you how liberating it was to hear this man say the same thing. Bravo Jeff another wonderful video!❤❤❤
Exactly what I say too. I think eating meat is more of an addiction. I hadn't heard anyone else say this either. I recently was talking to a friend and he admitted that he has an addiction to seafood. I was surprised he thought of it that way. He's been having health issues too. I've been mostly vegetarian my whole adult life eating meat sparingly but recently diagnosed with high blood pressure. I am taking a blood pressure medicine and adding more fresh juicing and almost fully vegan now. Hopefully I can reverse the damage I've done to my body. I'm also 2 or 3 times more active than before too. I'm 67
Thank you for supporting the philosophy.
Golden words 😊
Thanks sir
Love it. Dr. Fuhrman might be an inspiration also 🙂
Even though it seems like he is already aligned with the results Dr. Fuhrman recommends after going through more than 30.000 studies over the years and treating patients for more then 30 years as a family physician.
Thank you so much! Been over 4 years for me now. Best thing I ever did to improve my health. No dairy, eggs, or fatty meats. I have added occasional fish, but not often.
Hopefully you'll find everything you need in nuts, seeds, chlorella, dulse and kelp granules instead of fish :)
@@VeganLinked for me it was being in Florida in the Winter and restaurants not having any options at all. I added some Salmon ...but I did go 4 years without any meat. I still prefer whole food plant based.
awesome, you're doing excellent!!!!!!!!
