I have gone plant based about 95 per cent . My joints inflammations , my skin problems have gone . It is magic !! Also my diabetes is getting better already . Thankyou doctor barnard , doctor milton mills , doctor khambatta and all the other doctors of plant based food . There is still hope . Love and respect .
I will try to be off this diary thing . I was not doing it before. It was doctors orders. So help us God. Starting tomorrow. Will report back in 2 weeks.
I so much agreed with you, and so happy when people do right things for their health. I have a big garden and I eat so many vegetables from it. Good luck 🍀!
Firstly: Dr Barnard needs a big, powerful mic, like Chuck's. Secondly: Big thanks for continuing your work steadfastly. So many people out there are suffering and dying in ignorance and misinformation.
I was recently diagnosed with congenital basal arterial stenosis and I was put in statins -atovarstatin. Three months after I had been suffering with insomnia severe headaches brain for. My doctor advised me to stop statins. Mt LDL is 3.6 -my lifestyly is very good. Is there anything I could take instead of statins?
I, too, have trouble hearing Dr. B's voice. I always have to turn my volume up when he's talking, especially last words in a sentence when his voice drops. Host is fine, no problem. Irrititating.
For me my fibromyalgia was caused by dairy! After 15 years of being told I had fibromyalgia I did an elimination diet and found it was dairy. All my pain was gone within 1 1/2 weeks. Stopped dairy and lost 40 pounds and able to get off my cpap machine. Have gone whole food plant based the last year and even feeling better!
Hello Dr. Barnard, I switched to the "plant based diet", and it's really working for me. After 2 weeks of eating "plant based, the "high blood pressure, and thyroids" vitals were way down when I visited my doctor. She's now monitoring my "vitals", and she says if this continues, she will take me of the "UNGODLY meds". Thank God for Dr. Barnard, without you I would be still eating BAD!!
I have started following Dr Barnards plant based diet . I can tell you it has changed my life Dr Barnard changing and saving so many lives . God bless him He is send by lord to save people
Same. I went from 288 to 227 in less than 4 months on WFPB diet from paleo. I can’t wait to see what my LDL is next time I get blood draw. The doctor was very surprised I did it. He was adamant I go on statin, I said no, I will try WFPB diet and if no progress I’ll go on statin.
I’ve subscribed! Finally a sensible,clear and down to earth explanation about health. Dr Barnard is refreshing as well as educational. No more silly videos with noisy anecdotes that take up a whole hour, then hit you with their magic pill! Thank you team!
I was on an animal based/fresh vegetable and fruits diet. My LDL sky rocketed and my inflammation markers went through the roof too. I was also pre diabetic and I ate no sugar! I had lost weight on this diet but realized it was a sacrifice of skinny over my heart heath. I switched to a Whole Food Plant Based Diet and now my LDL and HDL and Triglycerides are in healthy normal range. I eat only organic 100% whole grains, lots of veggies and fruit-Zero dairy or animal products. No processed oil, no liquid oil whatsoever - ever!
I lowered my cholesterol by over 100 points going WFPB vegan. I've learned (and continue to learn) so much about food and nutrition through changing my diet. Learned how to cook all kinds of new, delicious dishes too. Still learning! It's a wonderful journey and definitely worth doing. I'll be 65 in a few months and jog, hike and climb steep bluffs 4-5 miles almost everyday. I've always loved spending time outdoors in nature. Can't live without it... and beans!
Two years ago my blood work was all perfect with my vegan diet. Fast forward to today, after eating a significant amount of meat and dairy even with regular exercise, my cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood pressure are all elevated! Going back to plant based but it’s so hard because my blood sugars go up so high!
Gail Webb, this is my story too!! After 2 weeks on the WPB diet, my blood pressure and thyroids were "FAR down". I will NEVER go back to my "old killer way" of eating.
Yes. I have it two years now. The meds have dried out my skin so bad. Even after a bath . I have to rub really good all over to get dead skin off. I get dead skin all over my clothes, my sheets. I can't wear dark colors. The best thing I've used was black seed oil on my skin. I take Collagen, vitamin C, Hyluronic Acid, liquid multivitamin and Wiley's fish oil 2500. I think Wiley's has helped. But it's still extremely dry. It's the medications. My hair has changed to low porosity. It never was before. I drink at least 2 L if water, no soda, I eat healthy. I'm on warfarin. I can't take any other blood thinner. Got migraines and intestinal issues from Eliquis really bad. Very very bad. Any suggestions to help. Gallbladder been removed as well.
@@jillpeacock4540 Get in touch with a functional medicine doctor, preferably one that promotes plant based eating. Otherwise, I hope you can get an answer here. Best of luck. ❤️
I've been plant-based for 7 months now, my cholesterol was 259 and is now 202, my LDL was 167 and is now 115. I've been eating organic foods for over 30 years now and thought so many things were healthy for me that I now know are not. I was using coconut oil all the time and have cut that out completely and use only extra virgin olive oil, and I was eating lots of almonds and spinach which I now know have high oxalate content so I have much smaller amounts, if any at all. Although Dr. B says gas will get less and less eating beans, that hasn't happened yet and I don't think I am over eating them. If I eat smaller and smaller amounts then I feel I am not getting enough protein. I exercise a lot and need protein to keep me active. I am so happy to be plant based and hope to continue to reduce my cholesterol and LDL in the future as I continue to eat plant-based. I do wonder if fish is okay once or twice a month.
My personal experience was, after the Dr. Told me I was pre-diabetic, I cut in certain fruits, like bananas, grapes 🍇, and mangos. I cut sugar in my coffee and pastries. Three months later I lower my sugar, I was completely fine. I think it should be a balance, too much of one thing is too much! Thank you for the information.
I live in UK and I have been listening to this podcast. I must say I have learnt a lot and I must say thank you so much Dr Bernard. I am using a lot of your recommendations and I have experienced a lot of improvement on my T2D health conditions. Thank you so much, I am really appreciative
First 10 days I lost almost 10 pounds, from eat, vegan, no carb, no sugar In 2 months I lost 20 pounds, now I eat a little bit of sweet and a little bit of carb, 4 more months I’ll check my cholesterol again, I eat more fish vegetable oatmeal now Thank you both for this interview ❤❤
inflammation and insulin resistance is a much higher indicator than cholesterol. Cut the carbs, cut the sugar, cut the fructose, limit the alcohol. keep your gallbladder.
I blend raw garlic the whole bub and I add water and I blend it. After I blend it I add a lot of honey, I add this mixture to a water bottle and I shake it together, I drink it down through out the day.
I wish you would date these videos. The ICNM conference you are promoting in this video has already happened. This is an example of why you should date these videos so you don't confuse your viewers. Thank you.
????? i’m so confused by this question. the date this was streamed is up there in the information section. Every video always has an upload date. U have to click on the little “v” to the right to get more information!
With pre-diabetes and high cholesterol I settled on the best of both worlds...a low saturated fat Mediterranean ketogenic diet. Olive oil, fatty fish, low carbohydrate fiber sources and prebiotics, and tons of low starch veggies. A1C, fasting insulin and LDL are all optimal.
@@sabby559 tons of greens and cruciferous vegetables with at least four tablespoons of Olive oil. I go through 1 1/2 liters of Olive Oil a week just for myself...I need that to keep weight on. I eat about 2-3 eggs a day. I occasionally will have some grass fed beef liver but other than that it is predominantly fatty fish. I make a low carb pancake / bread with almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, eggs, together with flax , chia and pumpkin seeds. That gives me plenty of additional fiber and I have it with tea or coffee with a bit of peanut butter. That fixes my sweet tooth and snacking very well and rounds out the rest of my diet.
@@livics610 almost no cheese except sometimes a small amount of mozzarella that I put on homemade cauliflower pizza. I have done numerous self hacking diet trials with bloodwork and I saw that cheese elevated my LDL particle number more than any other food. I am a 3/4 APO carrier and that seems to be a common thing.
I needed to know that sugar could cause high cholesterol! I have never been able to get my total cholesterol under 190 My LDL has always been high. I have been plant based for 5 years. Maybe the sugar information is just what I needed. Thank you!
If anyone suffers from bloating from eating lentils, beans, etc, I have a suggestion - try using ginger as much as possible in the food. Another alternative is asafetida which also helps avoid gas build up
Appreciate your talk on healthy eating. I've never been vegan. But today I will make up a vegan meal plan and try it for the next month. All of my numbers are okay but I would like them to be better. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 👏👏👏
I was on keto diet for 3 months, indeed lost 5 kg, but then suddenly, the weight loss stopped. I realised that I've ruined my metabolism. Gas, bloating, nausea. Now I'm back to plant based diet 80%. Aiming for 100%. I hope I can make it!
I have a bad, numb continuous pain on my upper left back + eruptions all over my back ( bad itching). my doctors know what it is and I continue to suffer, can you offer some help, Dr. Bernard as to what exactly what is causing the pain and the itchy flare-up and how to cure it. Thanks very much for a great show, Chuck.
Because of the medium fatty chain acid in coconut oil I have found it does not raise my cholesterol levels. My mom was raised in an island country and her mom cooked with it. It is a lite oil, runs like water when warm Nobody in my family got high cholesterol or angina. They ate healthy whole foods and were not heavy. I eat coconut oil in place of vegetable oil in any recipe that calls for oil. I've had no issue with it
This guy is stuck in the 70s. The best thing you can do for yourself is eat good fats. Olive oil, avocado oil etc. Vegetable oil?? Who the hell uses vegetable oil anymore? It is not the fats which cause heart disease, it is the sugars. And be aware that in the body, carbs are just sugar.
I was at a blackjack table at the Orleans in Vegas and a nice looking Vietnamese lady said she had a cute angina. I quickly said "i would like to see it". She looked at my kind of confusedly. But it all turned out well -- later that evening she came up to my room and i saw it!
Nutrition knowledge is at a v. infantile stage. Meaning we are just starting to discover things. There are two strong components to this info. 1. Ancestral influences. Not been studied in a big way n probably difficult to do so! So u might have a tolerance if you guys have been eating it for 100s of years than someone who just started. 2. Racism in science and research! For example ACV - is it really that good compared to other vinegars? Or has it just been studied more and therefore there is more data on it! Meaning is it good because the other vinegars have not been studied that much! Ancient cultures have a lot of good info. Our health has gone haywire just in the last 60 years. If the FDA put a limit to the amount of sugar, salt and fats could be used in processed food and regulated it strongly there would be a huge drop in numbers. I think it was in the 70s that big food corporations came together to discuss this issue n self regulate, but many refused coz their food scientists were saying it would take away from the addicting taste! If you look at a regular grocery store in the US - organic or not, about 50% of the food will become poisonous for a consumer in a few decades!
@@preeta8275 I think it's likely the worst thing happening with food could be the hybridization of our crops. Pesticides, synthetic fertilizers sprayed on soil, as well putting BT toxins and whatever else inside seeds to be planted. Then there's the combining of different types of wheat that is causing allergens so that a lot of people get celiacs. Wheat used to have a smaller chromosome count than today. Scientists have concentrated glutens and allergens in grains to where bread is not healthy to eat. The corporations providing seeds to farmers today are drug and chemical companies. BASF, Cargill, Bayer, Dow, Dupont, Syngento. They also make many lethal drugs used in warfare. I wish farmers could produce there own seeds without corporate interference.
What about a non alcoholic fatty liver. What is not good to eat ? My husband is 63 he says no white potatoes 🥔 or sugar? Also he is not over weight at all he eats a plant based diet half the time .
my thyroid was removed this year I started a plant base diet and my labs came back total cholesterol low and phosphate high. My doctor is telling me to stop plant base and telling me to eat meat and oils and eggs. I don’t eat dairy, eggs, meat or gluten or oils. I’m so confused. Then Dr. Gundry has a video with a list of veggies not to eat and not to eat lectins and to add tons of oils. So confusing
Respected sir i am from india. And i eat a plant based diet without oil . I am doing this from 2019.i ocassionally eat fish. My ldl cholesterol is 42.i am long distance runner,cyclist and swimmer.i respect u and great follower of dr barnard and dr collin campbell .previously i used to take non fat yoghurt but i suffered a lot from digestion problems then eliminated all dairy from diet from 2018.i hate dairy and egg yolks. I eat 90 percent plant based with no added oil . I occassionaly eat egg whites and fish in moderation.
I think the best way to cook without oil is to cook on a slow/low setting in the microwave. I make big bowls of potato, pulse, and vegetable in the microwave and I'm losing weight. I'm also full the whole day.
My cholesterol to HDL level went from 6.3 to 3.3 less than one year after becoming a vegan (over 5 is bad, 3.5 is ideal). I had consistently elevated cholesterol levels for 20 years before I became vegan.
Hi chuck ! I love this podcast it has becoming my favorit good job ! I have an important question what does Dr. Barnard think of lectin ? Which is dangerous to consume beans if you are not pressure cooking it ?Dr. Steven Gundry is warning everyone that lectin is so deadly and it should be avoided , I have just become vegan and im bit worried about geting leaky gut when it comes to lectin ?! thanks Sweden
Reverse pre-diabetes!! First began with keto but it was not me!!!!!!! One day I have said: I cannot go my all life this way... colesterol goes to the roof 😱LDL too.... and glicemic index, and Hb1Ac !!!!
For me, fibromyalgia was caused by onions, which I have since found I was sensitive to along with garlic. I would get very painful shooting pains through my lower back. Felt like I was stabbed with a bolt of electricity. But only lasted a few seconds. Also, walnuts eaten too often causes the back of my hands to hurt and my thumbs to grow sore and weak. Also have arthritis pain with strawberries and eggplant.
I wonder why you are sensitive to these foods? I was allergic to eggs, which I love, so I went to a acupuncturist who did something called NAET therapy. Basically resetting the bodies response to allergens. I can now eat eggs without the allergic response.
I went on a no-meat/egg/dairy diet for 6 months. My cholesterol shot up significantly! Then I got educated about what actually causes cholesterol: that is, fructose. I went back to meat, eggs and cheese, but lowered the intake of starches and sugars. I no longer have a cholesterol problem.
@@videos_iwonderwhy That is an improvement, but heart attack risk is minimized when total cholesterol is below 150. I followed a strict vegan diet for 9 years, but later I decided I wanted to get my B12 from natural sources; I am suspicious of mega dosing, but if you don't mega dose B12 supplements, you don't know whether enough is getting absorbed since there is wide interpersonal variance. Also, veganism is unprecedented in human experience, and also I began to have doubts about the theory that if less is good, none is best. I haven't had my numbers checked in quite a while, but my total cholesterol was easily under 150 the last I was tested, and my triglycerides, which at first went up on a vegan diet, eventually plummeted well below 100. However, I have spent the pandemic sitting on my butt nearly all the time and even on a very low fat diet my waistline has expanded apparently due solely to inactivity, and my numbers now probably would reflect that. While staying on a low fat, high fiber diet, I am going to try to shape up with walking and weights with no conscious portion control. That doesn't work with "moderate" exercise, but it should with more activity than most people are presumed to be willing to do. Appetite increases some with exercise, but only up to a point, and I would rather sweat than starve.
@@michaels4255 Frankly I am not sure we know all there is to know about mortality and cholesterol. It appears to be a complicated relationship. Most recent studies (please don't ask me to identify them) suggest that physical activity and healthy nutrition (including fats, animal or vegetal) does NOT increase mortality, even with high cholesterol (to a limit, of course). Furthermore, when cholesterol is too low, other issues come up. And of course, cholesterol medication does much more damage than good.
Cholesterol causes cholesterol, sugar does not. *No one here said sugar is healthy* ...a whole food vegan diet with plenty of vegetables for the *fiber* is what you need to eat. Going on a “no-meat/egg/dairy diet for 6 months” could mean you ate Oreos and tubs of peanut butter, vegan ice creams and Beyond Burgers. How is that going to improve your health? That’s a vegan junk food diet. Morally, that junk food vegan crap is great for saving animals but it won’t save YOU Plus, you follow up by saying you “lowered starches and sugars” after resuming your meat/dairy/egg diet...? Dude, you’re just eating a western SAD & your “after” numbers are still alarming. My mother spouted what you’re stating, and she can’t speak in complete sentences any more, because of the strokes after her QUINTUPLE BI-PASS. I urge you to rethink the tHeY DoN’t UnDeRsTaNd ChOlEsTeRoL line. Cholesterol is understood
@traci 1204 Italians often pair beans with pasta to prevent bloating, eg tossing a handful of macaroni into a minestrone soup. I’m not sure how or why that works, but it does.
Soup was traditionally a “poor man’s” dish in the Old Country and adding pasta (inexpensive) would help the soup go farther and feed more people. That tradition carried over to the States. 🇮🇹
Would like it even more if they were local to me, instead of on the coasts and large metropolitan areas. PCRM should solicit med school alumni groups. In my experience all my Dr. wants to hear from me is yes I'll comply with the treatment, I'm imagining the debilitating pharm side effects.

In 2022 i went plant based. 299 cholesterol went down to 154. In July 2023, it was down to 145. I wasn’t eating any nuts and seeds back then. This year, April 2024, it was up to 222, my triglycerides was 145, it used to be 77. IDK if it’s the seeds i was consuming since September of 2023. Now it’s down to 205, but with statin. Triglycerides is down to 100, I stopped consuming dried fruits and whole grains. This month I will eliminate the seeds. Maybe it’s my hormones as well. I’m 41 and been having perimenopause symptoms since 2021. They got more intense this year (hot flashes like almost everyday, before it was only once or twice a year). 🤷🏻♀️
I am a plant-based vegan for over 30 years. I follow a very clean Neutratarian diet. When I eat too many carbs even 4 ounces of beans versus 2 ounces of beans I get groggy and things start to grow on my upper lip. How much fat is okay? I eat up to 3oz avocado and 1/2 oz nuts per meal
80% of cholesterol is made by your body and is genetic. Only 20% comes from food. I went vegan and stopped my statin. 3 months later, my cholesterol was through the roof. I went bank on my statin. If it runs high in your family than it will be hard to lower it even on a vegan diet.
12:39 Q: Indians consume less meat, and a little dairy, but still get IHD, T2D, HTN. Indians are getting atherosclerosis because of an explosion in deep fried foods and junk snack foods over the last 50 years. Together this has increased dramatically the intake of saturated and trans fats. Further, Indians have increased intake of beef, due mainly to younger gens not taking their Hindu roots seriously. They have simultaneously decreased fruit and vege intake. They also are more sedentary. Many leave the village life in search of easier work in the cities, sitting in offices. None of this stuff is rocket science.

Good info but I couldn’t listen all the way through because of the difference in volume between the two. Dr B’s voice is soft, so I turn up the volume. Chuck’s voice is loud, and it jolts me each and every time he starts speaking. There’s got to be a technical solution for this.
I have artritis in my knees and osteoporosis. I broke my tibia 2 weeks ag been in rehab hospital for 10 days. they made a compression sock on my left knee where the break is. But I also have gurd. I want to get you book on food and pain. I am going to eat oatmeal and frozen blueberries thawed with some stevia. And water. I think this ibetter for me.i had horrible gurd during the hospital stay.

I was diagnosed with SIBO means have to cut down fiber, how can I get rid of it with eating veggies and all foods that has too much fiber. Thanks fir your respond. I’ve gone keto , paleo , carnivore but I do love veggie.
What can you do when your body is producing the high cholesterol my LDL cholesterol is very high 114 my triglyceride is 195 and that’s because I take cholesterol medication
Today we decided to go WFPB, I love Dr. Barnard's books. I am leaning strongly towards using seitan in our meals, have to watch out for potassium rich foods. we are 82 and 79 yrs each. I'm diabetic and have all the bads it brings and I want OUT. I have trouble standing and walking to severe back problems, and have one kidney and recently bilateral mastectomy. What is best for our age group?
Question for next show : You say that we should have only ~10% of fat in our diet. But I need to put on weight... What I am supposed to eat ? Thank you for the great content !
These videos are always so confusing to me. Here is a doctor stating you should be on a plant-based diet only for high cholesterol. In the past, I was watching all these videos of doctors stating to go on Keto to lose weight...I wound up in the hospital with a Kidney Stone and for the first time in my life the low end of High Cholesterol. (I did lose 26 lbs though). My primary care told me Keto is not for everyone and is neither kidney nor heart friendly, especially if you have pre-existing conditions (I have kidney issues). So I stopped doing Keto and I gained some of my weight back. However, I still have the low end of High Cholesterol and Blood Pressure and my primary care has always told me to just limit my meat intake to fish and lean meats such as chicken/turkey and keep red meat as a special occasion (if at all). Both my primary care and my dietician told me that I should be following more of a low fat/Mediterranean type diet. I was also told to start walking for at least 30 minutes (build up to 45 minutes to an hour) to get my weight down. I chose to try and lower my cholesterol and blood pressure with diet/exercise vice going on medication. Also, I have IBS and Soy is a trigger for me so I cannot have anything with Soy. Currently, I'm trying to strictly limit both sugar and sodium (so hard since most all food has both in it today unless I'm just eating vegetables raw). I have also mostly given up gluten. I haven't really noticed that I'm losing any weight since not eating red meat and giving up sugar and sodium. So who do you believe? Videos posted on TH-cam by doctors or your primary care? TH-cam doctors seem to contradict what primary care doctors tell you. And it seems so odd to me that most of the doctors promoting Keto on TH-cam are Chiropractors, not primary care physicians.
I believe these plant based doctors that refer to studies that are not industry funded. I think the docs you see in person believe moderation is more easy to actually stick with. Also, they likely don't want to try a vegan diet themselves, so they don't tell you to do it. As for the Keto and Chiropractor connection, people that are more open to woo woo spirituality, or deep traditional religion faith, are likely more interested in going to a Chiropractor than a physical therapist or spine doctor. Those same types of customers have less trust in science that comes from universities or the government, which is unfortunate.

I wish you would do a session on Atrial Fibrillation. An increasing number of adults are suffering from this
Listen to Dr. Sanjay Gupta, York Cardiologist on TH-cam. He does many videos on atrial fib.
Yes. I have it two years now. The meds have dried out my skin so bad. Even after a bath . I have to rub really good all over to get dead skin off. I get dead skin all over my clothes, my sheets. I can't wear dark colors. The best thing I've used was black seed oil on my skin. I take Collagen, vitamin C, Hyluronic Acid, liquid multivitamin and Wiley's fish oil 2500. I think Wiley's has helped. But it's still extremely dry. It's the medications. My hair has changed to low porosity. It never was before. I drink at least 2 L if water, no soda, I eat healthy. I'm on warfarin. I can't take any other blood thinner. Got migraines and intestinal issues from Eliquis really bad. Very very bad. Any suggestions to help. Gallbladder been removed as well.
@@jillpeacock4540 Get in touch with a functional medicine doctor, preferably one that promotes plant based eating.
Otherwise, I hope you can get an answer here.
Best of luck. ❤️

I've been plant-based for 7 months now, my cholesterol was 259 and is now 202, my LDL was 167 and is now 115. I've been eating organic foods for over 30 years now and thought so many things were healthy for me that I now know are not. I was using coconut oil all the time and have cut that out completely and use only extra virgin olive oil, and I was eating lots of almonds and spinach which I now know have high oxalate content so I have much smaller amounts, if any at all. Although Dr. B says gas will get less and less eating beans, that hasn't happened yet and I don't think I am over eating them. If I eat smaller and smaller amounts then I feel I am not getting enough protein. I exercise a lot and need protein to keep me active. I am so happy to be plant based and hope to continue to reduce my cholesterol and LDL in the future as I continue to eat plant-based. I do wonder if fish is okay once or twice a month.
My personal experience was, after the Dr. Told me I was pre-diabetic, I cut in certain fruits, like bananas, grapes 🍇, and mangos. I cut sugar in my coffee and pastries. Three months later I lower my sugar, I was completely fine. I think it should be a balance, too much of one thing is too much! Thank you for the information.
Everything in moderation
Check out dr Barnard on diebetes.
@@kenpca Why?
I eat so much fruit and was pre diabetic. Bananas and mangos are not the enemy.
So important to hear all these points. The low protein info is priceless. Thank you for bringing his wisdom to us.
I live in UK and I have been listening to this podcast. I must say I have learnt a lot and I must say thank you so much Dr Bernard. I am using a lot of your recommendations and I have experienced a lot of improvement on my T2D health conditions. Thank you so much, I am really appreciative
First 10 days I lost almost 10 pounds, from eat, vegan, no carb, no sugar
In 2 months I lost 20 pounds, now I eat a little bit of sweet and a little bit of carb, 4 more months I’ll check my cholesterol again, I eat more fish vegetable oatmeal now
Thank you both for this interview ❤❤
You cannot possibly lose a pound of fat in a day.
Consult a doctor !
inflammation and insulin resistance is a much higher indicator than cholesterol. Cut the carbs, cut the sugar, cut the fructose, limit the alcohol. keep your gallbladder.
I blend raw garlic the whole bub and I add water and I blend it. After I blend it I add a lot of honey, I add this mixture to a water bottle and I shake it together, I drink it down through out the day.
I wish you would date these videos.
The ICNM conference you are promoting in this video has already happened. This is an example of why you should date these videos so you don't confuse your viewers.
Thank you.
????? i’m so confused by this question. the date this was streamed is up there in the information section. Every video always has an upload date. U have to click on the little “v” to the right to get more information!
With pre-diabetes and high cholesterol I settled on the best of both worlds...a low saturated fat Mediterranean ketogenic diet. Olive oil, fatty fish, low carbohydrate fiber sources and prebiotics, and tons of low starch veggies. A1C, fasting insulin and LDL are all optimal.
Best! ❤️
What did you have for your main dishes beside fish?
@@sabby559 tons of greens and cruciferous vegetables with at least four tablespoons of Olive oil. I go through 1 1/2 liters of Olive Oil a week just for myself...I need that to keep weight on. I eat about 2-3 eggs a day. I occasionally will have some grass fed beef liver but other than that it is predominantly fatty fish. I make a low carb pancake / bread with almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, eggs, together with flax , chia and pumpkin seeds. That gives me plenty of additional fiber and I have it with tea or coffee with a bit of peanut butter. That fixes my sweet tooth and snacking very well and rounds out the rest of my diet.
@@jan-peterschuring88 u don't eat feta cheese, parmigiano, Swiss, cheddar or other goat/ aged cheeses?
@@livics610 almost no cheese except sometimes a small amount of mozzarella that I put on homemade cauliflower pizza. I have done numerous self hacking diet trials with bloodwork and I saw that cheese elevated my LDL particle number more than any other food. I am a 3/4 APO carrier and that seems to be a common thing.
I needed to know that sugar could cause high cholesterol! I have never been able to get my total cholesterol under 190 My LDL has always been high. I have been plant based for 5 years. Maybe the sugar information is just what I needed. Thank you!
Watch Dr. Jason Jung on TH-cam … he also gives outstanding information. Trust me, nDr Jung is amazing and gives much more information.
@@susanshopsabout943 its dr Jason Fung
Kelly remember the genetic component. If you’ve tried everything and still high, then u know it’s the genes.
Too much carbohydrate can cause high cholesterol, carbohydrates are glucose when it metabolized and glucose is sugar.
@@jencorral7915 Yea, that is what I meant by sugar. Plants and all are Carbs so I am hoping I don't have to watch that :) I will starve. LOL
For me , my cholesterol only lowered after significant weight loss.
If anyone suffers from bloating from eating lentils, beans, etc, I have a suggestion - try using ginger as much as possible in the food.
Another alternative is asafetida which also helps avoid gas build up
Beans must be soaked prior to cooking.i buy organic beans or Eden beans
Be careful. Ginger is an anticoagulant herb. I take to much of it and I poop with blood. The only thing I added to my diet was ginger
Good afternoon gentlemen, thank you for all you do to help us! God bless you.🥰
Thanks for making my walks educational. Learning so much.
Soak and boil beans a bit, wash them and boil them until soft, in this way you remove the enzimes that cause bloating.
Keto, paleo, atkins, plant based are one thing in common : cut the sugar and avoid bread. Pretty simple
Complex carbs, which come from plants, are molecules of sugar
Intermittent Fasting helps reverse most health problems.
Thanks Chuck and Dr.B! Awesome episode! 👏🏻🌱💜
Appreciate your talk on healthy eating. I've never been vegan. But today I will make up a vegan meal plan and try it for the next month. All of my numbers are okay but I would like them to be better. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 👏👏👏
@Wanda P Thank you. I'll look into it.
I thought Bernard was much younger he is 70 I was surprised
I was on keto diet for 3 months, indeed lost 5 kg, but then suddenly, the weight loss stopped. I realised that I've ruined my metabolism. Gas, bloating, nausea. Now I'm back to plant based diet 80%. Aiming for 100%. I hope I can make it!
I have a bad, numb continuous pain on my upper left back + eruptions all over my back ( bad itching). my doctors know what it is and I continue to suffer, can you offer some help, Dr. Bernard as to what exactly what is causing the pain and the itchy flare-up and how to cure it. Thanks very much for a great show, Chuck.
Because of the medium fatty chain acid in coconut oil I have found it does not raise my cholesterol levels. My mom was raised in an island country and her mom cooked with it. It is a lite oil, runs like water when warm Nobody in my family got high cholesterol or angina. They ate healthy whole foods and were not heavy. I eat coconut oil in place of vegetable oil in any recipe that calls for oil. I've had no issue with it
Coconut oil melts at 76 degrees F. (C=[76F-32]*5/9)
This guy is stuck in the 70s. The best thing you can do for yourself is eat good fats. Olive oil, avocado oil etc. Vegetable oil?? Who the hell uses vegetable oil anymore?
It is not the fats which cause heart disease, it is the sugars. And be aware that in the body, carbs are just sugar.
I was at a blackjack table at the Orleans in Vegas and a nice looking Vietnamese lady said she had a cute angina. I quickly said "i would like to see it". She looked at my kind of confusedly. But it all turned out well -- later that evening she came up to my room and i saw it!
Nutrition knowledge is at a v. infantile stage. Meaning we are just starting to discover things. There are two strong components to this info. 1. Ancestral influences. Not been studied in a big way n probably difficult to do so! So u might have a tolerance if you guys have been eating it for 100s of years than someone who just started. 2. Racism in science and research! For example ACV - is it really that good compared to other vinegars? Or has it just been studied more and therefore there is more data on it! Meaning is it good because the other vinegars have not been studied that much! Ancient cultures have a lot of good info. Our health has gone haywire just in the last 60 years. If the FDA put a limit to the amount of sugar, salt and fats could be used in processed food and regulated it strongly there would be a huge drop in numbers. I think it was in the 70s that big food corporations came together to discuss this issue n self regulate, but many refused coz their food scientists were saying it would take away from the addicting taste!
If you look at a regular grocery store in the US - organic or not, about 50% of the food will become poisonous for a consumer in a few decades!
@@preeta8275 I think it's likely the worst thing happening with food could be the hybridization of our crops. Pesticides, synthetic fertilizers sprayed on soil, as well putting BT toxins and whatever else inside seeds to be planted. Then there's the combining of different types of wheat that is causing allergens so that a lot of people get celiacs. Wheat used to have a smaller chromosome count than today. Scientists have concentrated glutens and allergens in grains to where bread is not healthy to eat. The corporations providing seeds to farmers today are drug and chemical companies. BASF, Cargill, Bayer, Dow, Dupont, Syngento. They also make many lethal drugs used in warfare. I wish farmers could produce there own seeds without corporate interference.
What about a non alcoholic fatty liver. What is not good to eat ? My husband is 63 he says no white potatoes 🥔 or sugar? Also he is not over weight at all he eats a plant based diet half the time .
Maybe genetic.
my thyroid was removed this year I started a plant base diet and my labs came back total cholesterol low and phosphate high. My doctor is telling me to stop plant base and telling me to eat meat and oils and eggs. I don’t eat dairy, eggs, meat or gluten or oils. I’m so confused. Then Dr. Gundry has a video with a list of veggies not to eat and not to eat lectins and to add tons of oils. So confusing
Respected sir i am from india. And i eat a plant based diet without oil . I am doing this from 2019.i ocassionally eat fish. My ldl cholesterol is 42.i am long distance runner,cyclist and swimmer.i respect u and great follower of dr barnard and dr collin campbell .previously i used to take non fat yoghurt but i suffered a lot from digestion problems then eliminated all dairy from diet from 2018.i hate dairy and egg yolks. I eat 90 percent plant based with no added oil . I occassionaly eat egg whites and fish in moderation.
I think the best way to cook without oil is to cook on a slow/low setting in the microwave. I make big bowls of potato, pulse, and vegetable in the microwave and I'm losing weight. I'm also full the whole day.
My cholesterol to HDL level went from 6.3 to 3.3 less than one year after becoming a vegan (over 5 is bad, 3.5 is ideal). I had consistently elevated cholesterol levels for 20 years before I became vegan.

Hi chuck !
I love this podcast it has becoming my favorit good job ! I have an important question what does Dr. Barnard think of lectin ? Which is dangerous to consume beans if you are not pressure cooking it ?Dr. Steven Gundry is warning everyone that lectin is so deadly and it should be avoided , I have just become vegan and im bit worried about geting leaky gut when it comes to lectin ?! thanks

For me, fibromyalgia was caused by onions, which I have since found I was sensitive to along with garlic. I would get very painful shooting pains through my lower back. Felt like I was stabbed with a bolt of electricity. But only lasted a few seconds. Also, walnuts eaten too often causes the back of my hands to hurt and my thumbs to grow sore and weak. Also have arthritis pain with strawberries and eggplant.
Lana - your allergies to certain foods seem unusual; good to know you found them out!
I wonder why you are sensitive to these foods?
I was allergic to eggs, which I love, so I went to a acupuncturist who did something called NAET therapy.
Basically resetting the bodies response to allergens.
I can now eat eggs without the allergic response.
First time to watch your video.I learned a lot of this video. Thanks to Dr Neal Bernard .Love your video.God Bless and Stay safe
I went on a no-meat/egg/dairy diet for 6 months. My cholesterol shot up significantly! Then I got educated about what actually causes cholesterol: that is, fructose. I went back to meat, eggs and cheese, but lowered the intake of starches and sugars. I no longer have a cholesterol problem.
What are your numbers?
@@michaels4255 BEFORE: LDL: 174 (4.51), HDL: 47 (1.21), Triglycerides:180 (2.03).
AFTER: LDL: 120 (3.10), HDL: 51 (1.33), Triglycerides:115 (1.30)
@@videos_iwonderwhy That is an improvement, but heart attack risk is minimized when total cholesterol is below 150. I followed a strict vegan diet for 9 years, but later I decided I wanted to get my B12 from natural sources; I am suspicious of mega dosing, but if you don't mega dose B12 supplements, you don't know whether enough is getting absorbed since there is wide interpersonal variance. Also, veganism is unprecedented in human experience, and also I began to have doubts about the theory that if less is good, none is best.
I haven't had my numbers checked in quite a while, but my total cholesterol was easily under 150 the last I was tested, and my triglycerides, which at first went up on a vegan diet, eventually plummeted well below 100.
However, I have spent the pandemic sitting on my butt nearly all the time and even on a very low fat diet my waistline has expanded apparently due solely to inactivity, and my numbers now probably would reflect that. While staying on a low fat, high fiber diet, I am going to try to shape up with walking and weights with no conscious portion control. That doesn't work with "moderate" exercise, but it should with more activity than most people are presumed to be willing to do. Appetite increases some with exercise, but only up to a point, and I would rather sweat than starve.
@@michaels4255 Frankly I am not sure we know all there is to know about mortality and cholesterol. It appears to be a complicated relationship. Most recent studies (please don't ask me to identify them) suggest that physical activity and healthy nutrition (including fats, animal or vegetal) does NOT increase mortality, even with high cholesterol (to a limit, of course). Furthermore, when cholesterol is too low, other issues come up. And of course, cholesterol medication does much more damage than good.
Cholesterol causes cholesterol, sugar does not. *No one here said sugar is healthy* ...a whole food vegan diet with plenty of vegetables for the *fiber* is what you need to eat. Going on a “no-meat/egg/dairy diet for 6 months” could mean you ate Oreos and tubs of peanut butter, vegan ice creams and Beyond Burgers. How is that going to improve your health? That’s a vegan junk food diet. Morally, that junk food vegan crap is great for saving animals but it won’t save YOU
Plus, you follow up by saying you “lowered starches and sugars” after resuming your meat/dairy/egg diet...? Dude, you’re just eating a western SAD & your “after” numbers are still alarming.
My mother spouted what you’re stating, and she can’t speak in complete sentences any more, because of the strokes after her QUINTUPLE BI-PASS. I urge you to rethink the tHeY DoN’t UnDeRsTaNd ChOlEsTeRoL line. Cholesterol is understood
Amazing. Nice and clear
The further I get along in this video, the more it's apparent that this is like time travel. And I'm not talkin' future.
Cool story bro
@traci 1204 Italians often pair beans with pasta to prevent bloating, eg tossing a handful of macaroni into a minestrone soup. I’m not sure how or why that works, but it does.
Soup was traditionally a “poor man’s” dish in the Old Country and adding pasta (inexpensive) would help the soup go farther and feed more people. That tradition carried over to the
States. 🇮🇹
@@flowertiki4100 It's like that in traditional Greek cooking too -- some of the best dishes are from the so-called cucina povera.
Interesting. That's what I do sometimes when I eat pasta.

Would like it even more if they were local to me, instead of on the coasts and large metropolitan areas. PCRM should solicit med school alumni groups. In my experience all my Dr. wants to hear from me is yes I'll comply with the treatment, I'm imagining the debilitating pharm side effects.

Do you still get iron from liver if you chop it up n mix w oil?
In 2022 i went plant based. 299 cholesterol went down to 154. In July 2023, it was down to 145. I wasn’t eating any nuts and seeds back then. This year, April 2024, it was up to 222, my triglycerides was 145, it used to be 77. IDK if it’s the seeds i was consuming since September of 2023. Now it’s down to 205, but with statin. Triglycerides is down to 100, I stopped consuming dried fruits and whole grains. This month I will eliminate the seeds. Maybe it’s my hormones as well.

Went Plant based 3 months ago. Checked my Cholesterol and triglycerides they have not changed. How long does this take to kick in?
80% of cholesterol is made by your body and is genetic. Only 20% comes from food. I went vegan and stopped my statin. 3 months later, my cholesterol was through the roof. I went bank on my statin. If it runs high in your family than it will be hard to lower it even on a vegan diet.
I only eat at night. And only 1 meal a day. This way, I’m home and don’t worry about gas and digestive issues.
12:39 Q: Indians consume less meat, and a little dairy, but still get IHD, T2D, HTN.
Indians are getting atherosclerosis because of an explosion in deep fried foods and junk snack foods over the last 50 years.
Together this has increased dramatically the intake of saturated and trans fats.
Further, Indians have increased intake of beef, due mainly to younger gens not taking their Hindu roots seriously.
They have simultaneously decreased fruit and vege intake.
They also are more sedentary. Many leave the village life in search of easier work in the cities, sitting in offices.
None of this stuff is rocket science.

These videos are always so confusing to me. Here is a doctor stating you should be on a plant-based diet only for high cholesterol. In the past, I was watching all these videos of doctors stating to go on Keto to lose weight...I wound up in the hospital with a Kidney Stone and for the first time in my life the low end of High Cholesterol. (I did lose 26 lbs though). My primary care told me Keto is not for everyone and is neither kidney nor heart friendly, especially if you have pre-existing conditions (I have kidney issues). So I stopped doing Keto and I gained some of my weight back. However, I still have the low end of High Cholesterol and Blood Pressure and my primary care has always told me to just limit my meat intake to fish and lean meats such as chicken/turkey and keep red meat as a special occasion (if at all). Both my primary care and my dietician told me that I should be following more of a low fat/Mediterranean type diet. I was also told to start walking for at least 30 minutes (build up to 45 minutes to an hour) to get my weight down. I chose to try and lower my cholesterol and blood pressure with diet/exercise vice going on medication. Also, I have IBS and Soy is a trigger for me so I cannot have anything with Soy. Currently, I'm trying to strictly limit both sugar and sodium (so hard since most all food has both in it today unless I'm just eating vegetables raw). I have also mostly given up gluten. I haven't really noticed that I'm losing any weight since not eating red meat and giving up sugar and sodium. So who do you believe? Videos posted on TH-cam by doctors or your primary care? TH-cam doctors seem to contradict what primary care doctors tell you. And it seems so odd to me that most of the doctors promoting Keto on TH-cam are Chiropractors, not primary care physicians.
I believe these plant based doctors that refer to studies that are not industry funded. I think the docs you see in person believe moderation is more easy to actually stick with. Also, they likely don't want to try a vegan diet themselves, so they don't tell you to do it.
As for the Keto and Chiropractor connection, people that are more open to woo woo spirituality, or deep traditional religion faith, are likely more interested in going to a Chiropractor than a physical therapist or spine doctor. Those same types of customers have less trust in science that comes from universities or the government, which is unfortunate.
