I've been whole food vegan for a very long time. I would advise u to supplement with DHA's. I've seen a lot of vegan advocates died of Parkinson's and other deteriorating brain diseases
Did u perhaps have IBS? I suffer from so much gas no matter what I eat, even on a FODMAP diet. And no doctors or medication can fix it either. But from what I understand not all veggies are good for IBS either. Did u have IBS?
yessss!! as a vegetarian, i love ordering from indian restaurants because a lot/most of the food on the menus are vegetarian so there’s always something for me to eat!!🥰💖 and it’s always so delicious too 🤤
@@hipplow glad to know, If you happen to visit India you must try the wide range of Indian Street foods. I don't think all of these Indian delicacies can be found in those Indian restaurants.
I feel that traditional Indian food is really good and healthy, but the food served by restaurants now or street vendors is mostly junk. honestly not good for the health as it's full of oil,cheese butter or other processed garbage.
Same, I got diagnosed with Ibs and chronic gastritis and I cut out most frozen and persevered food and cook 95% home made everything. My stomach heals with that diet and if I go back to my old ways I suffer. I took eating what ever I wanted for granted as a kid. “Let food be thy medicine and medicine by thy food.”
Same here. I cut out milk and started buying the really good pasteurized eggs and started smoking 🍃 and haven’t had a attack in years. I used to have one 4-5 a week

Hi everyone! Thank you for the overwhelming support. Just a reminder for some of the more negative comments I've been seeing, this is my plant-based journey story and I simply wanted to share what worked for me. It does not work for everyone. There is no right way to eat, just do what works for you.
All organic foods, raw(pasteurized only) milk and honey. Look to mother nature to make cleaning products and medicines. God made us to eat all the foods. It's what they put on and in the food that's making ppl sick. Im a living testimony.
I love how she said "something that worked for me" because as a life long former vegetarian, I was suffering from a lot of deficiencies until I changed to a pescatarian diet. I also eat some chicken now. Never felt better. I have more energy and my chronic fatigue seems to have lessened. So it really depends on the individual.
Yeah very very few people can maintain a vegan diet without becoming severely nutrient deprived: of course you will feel good right away just cutting out gluten and bad seed oils with fast food, but the change won’t last long if it’s not a balanced diet ❤
@@RedxRiot if I eat gluten I am in so much pain I would want to die. That goes for any grain. I have a severe chronic illness that left me bed bound for years. Diet change saved my life. You have no idea. My life still isn’t great but at least I can live. Everyone is different and if vegan works for you that’s great. I am not telling anyone what to eat but we all have a right to choose what works for us…thankful I could afford grass fed beef and milk and no it doesn’t ruin the environment before I get that lecture
@@sarah29880 vegans/vegetarians aren’t nutrient deprived if you take supplements, also a lot of food has nutrients added for that reason. A lot of meat eaters are also nutrient deprived because a lot don’t eat a balanced diet so it goes both ways
I just had too much meat.....that I started seeking vegetables. Made me feel a hundred times better and even fixed symptoms that I thought was just normal since I've always had them for the longest time. I'm not completely vegetarian, I still eat a bit of meat and fish every now and then. But it would be easily like months before I eat meat, for like special occasions like parties or events, if I choose. Conforming myself to become purely veg, left me open to get tempted and finally binge eat because I'll think I'll go back to being vegetarian after this meal or this one cheat day. But now I'm not limiting myself and am able to choose a largely vegetarian diet without feeling tempted to "cheat" on my diet, because there is nothing to "cheat" on, I can eat if I really wanted to. And I no longer want to eat meat right now.
@@motophone8794 yeah I'm not lactose intolerant so I eat a lot of dairy, mostly yoghurt and milk. I just don't eat as much icecream and I avoid condensed milk because they make me break out fast. Instead I just have fruit yoghurt or make Gelato which is basically blended frozen fruits without dairy.
Thank you for sharing, the salad looks delicious,I’m going to make it,i have Gerd, heartburns all the times,i have stomach issues, i need to eat different.thank you,
I went vegetarian because it was a fad in Middle School. Everyone else around me who tried it lasted about 6 months. It fixed the stomach aches and issues I'd been having since birth in a couple of weeks and I never went back. It's been 15 years.
Same thing happened to me. I was sick everyday for years and had no idea why. Nothing helped and I tried everything. One day my friend told me to try going vegan and even though it was a hard transition at first, it was the best thing to ever happen to me! I never get sick anymore!
Man, this makes me so happy. I'm not even vegetarian myself, but in a world where its normal to see people constantly shilling their magical cures or trying to force the people they know into their own lifestyle, it's just so wholesome and heartwarming to see somebody sharing something worked for them. "Going plant based won't resolve all the health problems out there, but I'm lucky that I found something that works for me." Hell yeah, you go girl.
@@jurrac8505LOL, it’s nutritionally deficient and that group has a ton of bizarre beliefs which are scientifically untenable. Kellog’s was a part of it, they pushed that dogma to promote their products which were so nutritionally inadequate they were eventually required to add petroleum based “fortification” (8 “vitamins and minerals including iron shavings) since poor people were literally dying from eating too much of it.
@@Photologistic yeah theres nothing u cant get on that diet, and their bizarre beliefs have no bearing on the science that was conducted. list essential nutrients u cant get on that diet.
It's incredible how altering our diets can alter our health and it seems to be different for everyone. I was suffering with a lot of health issues as well and I had a doctor recommend cutting out certain foods. I've discovered avoiding grain, processed sugar, dairy and starches is what I need! So hard to make such drastic changes but I feel so much better 😭💖 and it's not about foods being "good" or "bad" it's just that my body is sensitive to those foods.
As someone who’s extremely sensitive to textures with certain fears about food, going plant based helped me out a hell of a lot more than I realized because it wasn’t my main reason for doing it initially. But after several years I’ve noticed how much more comfortable I am with dishes that just contain beans, vegetables, grains etc compared to dishes with eggs or meat (I don’t even like egg substitutes outside of baking that’s how much I hate anything with texture resembling eggs) and it gives me a sense of being able to control my food anxieties especially when going out and trying new things. ✨
Happy for you! And YES, it DOES feel good to do right by your body! It somehow does so much for the mind and spirit, too, when the body is conscientiously maintained. You look amazing! And sure hope you feel incrediblel, too!
This is very interesting- my vegetarian diet was working horribly for my body, and since becoming keto (nearly the polar opposite), I've lost weight, regained normal B12 levels & regulated my blood sugar. Everybody truly is different & I support you listening to your bodies needs! I'm glad it works for you!
@@kathi3093 Meat does also but they all have carbohydrates in much smaller amounts. Keto is not a carbohydrate free diet no matter what a person eats. That's why there is no such thing as a 'no carb' diet unless you count a diet that is full of nothing but water, fat, and protein isolates. Many nuts and seeds still have less than 10% carbohydrates in calories which can still be suitable for a keto diet.
It's good that you were able to fix your health problems. I myself found out I have acid reflux and changing my diet has made a big improvement. I just stopped eating certain foods and my issues went away. Trust me I know the struggle of giving up certain foods my biggest was coffee.
Ah, yeah, smoking, many cups of coffee, lots of sweets and junk foods and fast food everyday... You'll escape when you will learn how to cook correctly. Not frying, tho'. Stay away from that. And... don't eat mint chocolate... mint chocolate is so sooo bad for reflux. I don't know what diet I had followed, but mainly home-cooked and healthy foods that were alcaline. And no carbonated beverages. I could eat sweets again only after 3-4 weeks after that alcaline diet because everytime I tried... damn... it was bad. Of your start with acidic foods/vegetables, it won't be helpful or a good strategy. Also... I've heard about FODMAP diet (foods to avoid if you have irritable bowel syndrome) and maybe this abbreviation would help you acknowledge those foods that might trigger your digestive tract.
Going vegan for me fixed many health issues and gave others much relief .One huge change was my skin .It went from reasonably clear to crystal clear ,soft as baby’s skin and for the first time I could tan a little instead of burning! I received complements from everyone who knew me on the change of how I looked and felt . My dad asked what I did .He said I never looked so healthy and vibrant! Some close friends asked me to teach them what I did and ate to look so healthy and they also eventually went vegan !!! After 3 months you feel so good !!!It is incredable !!!
quick advice : extra virgin olive oil is for raw consumption, like a drizzle when yoi serve your dish it's not for roasting/sautéing as its got a low smoke point (plus you want to keep all the good nutrients, and it can be pretty pricey !) i'd use sesame oil for wok and vegetable oil or refined coconut oil for roasting and sautéing.
I have rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia as well as Sjögren’s Syndrome. My symptoms, joint pain, etc., went away going full carnivore. I’m grateful to live where we all have the choice to eat the way that’s best for us. 🧡💪🏼
I have Crohns disease and my diet consists of about 95% meat. Fruits and vegetables will put me in the 'throne' for days and cause severe gastric upset. Low residue (low/no fiber) has been a lifesaver for me. So I completely understand and agree.
Gastrointestinal problems so had to change my eating. The pescatarian way seem best for me at first, but I may eat eggs or lamb but trying to cut those out as well. I also intermittent fast. This journey can be difficult when so many around me eating everything I CAN NOT. I’m at my ideal weight & feel best now. Discipline & exercise has helped me. ❤ 😊I cut out white sugar & high fructose corn syrup, & GMO CORN in everything in USA. READ ALL LABELS ON FOOD, or stay with fresh 🥕 🥦 veggies only!
More power to you! Choosing a plant-based lifestyle has been a game-changer for me! Not only have I noticed a positive impact on my health - more energy, clearer skin, and better digestion - but it's also a powerful step towards reducing my environmental footprint.
Yum!! And thank you for calling it plant based instead of vegan because often time people conflate the two as if theyre the same... With plant based being a health focused diet and vegan being an ethical stance related to avoiding all areas of animal use
Happy to see you found something that helped. Typically the opposite when it comes to stomach issues I've been seeing. I have Crohn's and I get major bubble guts eating plants, not as much with fruits but veggies. Finally started adding animal protein in, and as much as I don't like the flavor my symptoms are less severe, even better
I had a very urgent surgeries when I was 13 and one of them I had to get my gallbladder removed. Ever since then I’ve really bad stomach issues as well, I’m not lactose intolerant and greasy foods, sometimes even salad(depending what’s in it) will cause my stomach to be in so much pain and I’ll have to go to the bathroom. It’s 4 years later and it still has not gone better or went away. I try to be vegetarian or eat less unhealthy foods, I want to do that but my family is not the healthy type I can’t get away from the bad food. When I’m on my own I’m definitely eating healthier for my own sake. Hoping I will no longer have the horrible feeling in my stomach.
Dear You may have IBS. I was suffering with the same before. I cured it on my own by eating light food like rice, whole foods and strictly avoiding raw foods.
Sorry you going through that. I pray healing over you in Jesus Christ Name. My lil sister had her gallbladder removed about 2 years ago and has similar issues as you . God bless you. Hope things get better for you.
I’ve suffered with similar issues my whole life. My biggest indication that my gut wasn’t healthy was severe acne that no medication could touch. I changed my diet to rice (not minute rice), whole foods, zero dairy products unless it’s goat milk, no process food unless it’s a special occasion. Lots of soup, as it tends to keep you hydrated. I’m 33 now and still struggle some but you’ll find balance one day.
Hi. Sorry about you’re discomfort. I’m no doctor, but I’d suggest starting out by totally cutting out dairy. No cow’s milk, cheese, ice cream, none of it. Substitute the cow’s milk and ice cream with nut milk (almond, cashew, etc.) or oat milk, and if you HAVE to have cheese there are a variety of vegan cheeses available now (although they usually have very little nutritional value). Also, I’d suggest adding probiotics every other day, if not every day. This is super important. You can get probiotics by either vegan yogurt, kimchi, kombucha, or probiotic pills. The only dairy that I would say is semi-okay to eat would be yogurt bc of the probiotics and the way it coats your stomach when you’re having discomfort more than vegan yogurt does (for some people). Hope this helps & hope you feel better ❤️ God bless ❤️
Same! I had undiagnosed neuropathy in both arms and was in severe pain and had to wear braces all the time. I went to doctor after doctor, test after test and the last doctor I went to, crying and begging for surgery, anything, told me “Sometimes we don’t know what’s wrong and you just have to learn to live with pain.” I was furious and determined to try anything. Cut all meds and went vegan that day. I have healed 90% so far and still getting better. Thanks for sharing, hugs💕✨
Ah gees I'm laying here suffering from I guess neuropathy in legs Great deal of pain No help from docs Really don't know what they honestly do However, plant base helped you I'd like t know exactly why eliminating meats foul fish is so detrimental when now I'm reading about Lion diet, meat Sal n water So very glad you are better
Becoming vegan helped my gastrointestinal problems significantly. I also felt even worse after eating when I ate non-vegan. I'm glad this worked for you as well!
I used to be on a plant base diet ( yes with supplements ) and both me and my husband felt terribly weak and almost sick for a year an a half. Then we went back to our regular diet and all is back to normal.
Yes dear I feel till your normal you will not understand but when there is a health problem..you do whatever good for your health and you want to come back to normal as soon as possible... for that we have follow whatever is best for us.. Health is wealth...absolutely true ...they will only understand who went through health problem
People dont normally eat enough vegetable as it is. I will not go vegan ever, but I choose a couple days of the week to eat just fruit and veggies to give my digestive system a break. Also a tbsp of metamucil a day wouldnt hurt either. It helps move "things" along 😀
i'm having some rashes issues on my body that suddenly erupted. I'm now slowly progressing into plant base cos none of the medications or creams work. This is motivating for me to see thank you!
i struggle with sever stomach/gi issues and im thinking of going vegetarian bc meat ALWAYS makes me feel so sick, could u maybe make a vid on the issues u had and things u did to transition over? it would be great :)
This is actually where I am in life! I have Primary Progress Multiple Sclerosis, Crohn’s, hypertension, and who knows what else. I was on the medical merry-go-round with nothing to show for it. Frustrated, I moved to a plant-based diet. My goal wasn’t to cure anything but reduce inflammation (and get closer to a 6-pack if possible 😅). I’m still learning but transitioning to a plant-based diet has vastly increased my energy, mobility, and memory. I’m not cured by any stretch of the imagination, but I’ve been able to do a lot more in a day than I used to!
I love that you healed yourself with food! It also should be mentioned that eating highly processed plant based food all the time also isn't good for you! Whole foods the majority of the time make a huge difference!
I’m glad you found a way to make yourself feel better. I don’t eat much milk but what I do is organic, grass fed, wild caught, free roam, etc. I prefer eating less meat just bc it makes more sense to me to eat veggies- like why do we need to kill animals to eat them when there’s plenty of fruits & veggies that are filling & edible. Thanks for sharing your journey.
I did vegetarian from 21 to 39 and vegan from 39 to 53. The only time I didn’t feel optimal was when I decided to do keto for 2 years because everyone said I would lose the weight I had gained while starting peri menopause. I lost weight, hair, all my strength, my muscles went flat as did my mood, and it was then I decided that what I had been doing for all those years was healthier and I just needed to tweak my plant based diet which is what I did. I’m back to lifting all the heavy weights, enjoying complex carbohydrates and feeling happy and well again. I agree that you need to find what works for you and your health.
Totally get it, but in reverse, I was a vegan since high school, but started having multiple health issues through my entire college years, so I started eating meat after I graduated and my health issues just gradually went away…. ❤️
Have had a similar experience. I went vegetarian in 2020 and gradually after almost two years, started having health issues. Have started eating meat again slowly and I feel fuller, more energetic and just healthier and well-nourished. I still enjoy vegetarian foods a lot but try to eat meat whenever I feel like it now.
Eating meat helps with my ibs for some reason. It's a long road of suffering until you find out what works. For some, plant based foods helps them. Our bodies are weird...
This is so fascinating to me, bc some people watch their health get better when they switch to Carnivore while some get better switching to a plant-based diet
This shows how amazing humans are. I had almost the same exact revelation, but in the opposite direction. I'm carnivore and this process has resolved so many health and personal issues for me, I wonder how I ever lived before! Our bodies rock!!!
I’m becoming a nurse practitioner because no one helped me( I have severe PMDD, had to discover that myself and beg a doctor to confirm it), still having to help myself bc western medicine discounts food and lifestyle SO MUCH.
Even I also have some kind of similar problem. Dr advised me to maintain plant based diet routine but I don’t know much vegan recipes. I think your channel is going to help me a lot... love from Bangladesh ❤❤🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
This is the way to promote plant based diets! It works for you and it's great! Might not work for others, but even someone like me who is just very much stuck with certain foods, due to mental health it's just easier to keep those in my diet, but I still wanna have at least days when i eat plant based.
I decided to become meat eater because I had no health Issues and I was an underweight. After being meat eater, I have been enjoying my food a lot more. It have had fixed my weight problem. Now I’m 3 safe Kg away from being an underweight. My skin undertone has changed from yellow to pink and I’m looking 10 years younger than my age.
@@MaxElizabethboi i'm doing "business" right now haha. It's not pleasant. The best thing to do is to go to a gastroenterologist instead of a blogger lol
@@MaxElizabethboi girl, I be seeing some dumb "health miracles" online that could honestly hurt a lot of people. Use caution as the internet is deceiving.
Yes! My stomach is so much better now as a vegan. I had the nightmare life before. But still can have issues but it is mostly related to alcohol, sugar and spicy or red food and bad oils. But quiting meat had the biggest impact on my problems for sure!
That's wild for me how I see so huge variety of diets that work for people, some eat only vegetables, some only meat, and both and other variations can heal from autoimmune diseases or stomach problems. Futhermore it's hard to justify some of the cases by academically correct way of nutrition. I think there is so much more for us to learn about the way our bodies work it's crazy.
Now, fish is rich in microplastics and mercury too. Plant based diets are rich in phytochemicals and fibre which can help with a lot of health issues by improving our gut microbiome.
@@zo.yeahhh can't agree with you... You should come to India n see the pple living in the coastal belt are fish eaters and have gorgeous skin and hair. They are v healthy. In the west the culture of takeaways and preservatives are the no. 1 reason for health problems. Back here too pple who follow western culture of eating unhealthy french fries are facing health issues
I drink alot of coffee and no water and just some food but im fat. I have a vitamin deficiency and i suffer fron dehydration. Now im learning what foods work and i what i need and like. The fact that my 3yr old loves to be in the kitchen has been fun. 1 step at a time
Glad you are sharing this. I've been adding more fresh vegetables to my diet and feel better. Your videos encourage me. **You might consider getting rid of nonstick coated pans and alluminum pots next, doing this helped me so much.
I'm happy it worked for you. I have some health issues: pcos, cfs, fibromyalgia, and ibs... I tried plant based diet so many times before because I hate the taste of meat, meat fats, butter, milk etc but it didn't work for me all... The ibs symptoms and fatigue became worse over the time until reach to where I can't handle it anymore. I have I stopped eating so many things and was only eat white rice, chicken breast, and chicken broth until I got better. Now I have eating problems because the food my body accepts are mostly the food I can't handle their taste, so I sometimes lose my appetite completely for days or even weeks... It's really a struggle, I hope one day I'll be able to eat normally like others do.
Yeeeeessss! It blows my mind how many people will flat out put veganism down, and never believe our testimonies. Helps so much with fibro, pcos, gut issues, so so so much more!!!!
I haven’t eaten meat for 2 years now and I’ve never felt better. I listened to my body because I literally felt sick seeing and eating meat. Its misconception that vegetarians/vegan are nutrition deficient. Its about knowing how to eat properly, having food that has protein and iron + supplements from time to time.
when i wasn’t eating meat often, i always felt lethargic and had so many digestion issues to the point where my stomach hurt after every time i ate ! period cramps were at an all time high… i included more meat in my diet and i feel so much better. maybe it was the protein specifically (although i ate a lot of nuts and eggs and beans so idk) but it is so interesting how everyone’s body works so differently~
I had the opposite experience. Years of vegetarianism and semi vegetarianism left me with deficiencies and hormonal issues. I eat more red meat now than I ever have and I'm feeling better every day!
You know you're a mature person and a grown up when you like your vegetables more than junk food or even meat or fish!!!! Growing up I absolutely hated eating vegetables....and now I'm 23 and one of my favourite things to eat is lady fingers and bitter gourd
The same happened to me and at first the people around me didn't understand either, until they tried the food I made and now they make their own vegetarian meals too. Its so strange how the world views meals as if the meat is the central part of it and how mind blowing it is when they real7se its not.
I listen to what my brain tells me. I eat a balanced diet that includes meat, fish, dairy, eggs, poultry etc. There are some essential nutrients that the body needs that can only be found in meat and poultry. However, after a couple of days, my body craves vegetables and lots of fruit because they contain fiber and if I don’t eat them, I suffer from severe constipation. I am super healthy, I work out every now and then, I drink plenty of water, I dont smoke and I avoid alcohol, I sleep 7-8 hrs and the only thing I avoid eating is fast food. So yeah, listen to your body and know what your body needs. I saw a channel here on you tube I think, called vegan deterioration and I saw how some people who only eat plant based diets suffer from severe mental and physical problems. So please, dont jump into a diet that may work for someone and not for you. Our bodies are different.💐💚
I'm so glad you mentioned that different diets work for different people. For some people, a vegetarian diet is amazing but for others it'll make them sick. So diets heavily rely on "what works for you"
I didn't know I was mildly allergic to milk. Not lactose intolerant but allergic. Didn't know why I suffered from nausea every day. Then I went more plant based, not 100% but still. Suddenly not sick.
Everyone is different and when you find what works you stick with it. I’m not plant based (but do eat those types of products) but I do eat a lot of veggies and am gluten free and dairy free because I’m intolerant. I found what worked for me and I feel way better than feeling achy and in chronic pain all the time.

Thank you for sharing, the salad looks delicious,I’m going to make it,i have Gerd, heartburns all the times,i have stomach issues, i need to eat different.thank you,
I went vegetarian because it was a fad in Middle School. Everyone else around me who tried it lasted about 6 months.
It fixed the stomach aches and issues I'd been having since birth in a couple of weeks and I never went back. It's been 15 years.
Same thing happened to me. I was sick everyday for years and had no idea why. Nothing helped and I tried everything. One day my friend told me to try going vegan and even though it was a hard transition at first, it was the best thing to ever happen to me! I never get sick anymore!
Man, this makes me so happy. I'm not even vegetarian myself, but in a world where its normal to see people constantly shilling their magical cures or trying to force the people they know into their own lifestyle, it's just so wholesome and heartwarming to see somebody sharing something worked for them.
"Going plant based won't resolve all the health problems out there, but I'm lucky that I found something that works for me." Hell yeah, you go girl.
its the healthiest diet categorically the adventist 2 study demonstrated it
@@jurrac8505LOL, it’s nutritionally deficient and that group has a ton of bizarre beliefs which are scientifically untenable. Kellog’s was a part of it, they pushed that dogma to promote their products which were so nutritionally inadequate they were eventually required to add petroleum based “fortification” (8 “vitamins and minerals including iron shavings) since poor people were literally dying from eating too much of it.
@@Photologistic yeah theres nothing u cant get on that diet, and their bizarre beliefs have no bearing on the science that was conducted. list essential nutrients u cant get on that diet.
It’s the best resolve to animal abuse and deaths.
Wow, yall really missed the point entirely, huh?
It's incredible how altering our diets can alter our health and it seems to be different for everyone. I was suffering with a lot of health issues as well and I had a doctor recommend cutting out certain foods. I've discovered avoiding grain, processed sugar, dairy and starches is what I need! So hard to make such drastic changes but I feel so much better 😭💖 and it's not about foods being "good" or "bad" it's just that my body is sensitive to those foods.
Why is it incredible. Do you think you’re made from air and sparkles? You’re made from what you eat.
I can’t imagine having to cut out all that; it must have been hard. I am glad it helped you out
Subscribed:). Yes agree Indian food, specially vegetarian dishes can do wonders for health
i relate so much! going vegan drastically improved my health
I fully agree I'm on my way there, fully plant based and it feels amazing!!!
As someone who’s extremely sensitive to textures with certain fears about food, going plant based helped me out a hell of a lot more than I realized because it wasn’t my main reason for doing it initially. But after several years I’ve noticed how much more comfortable I am with dishes that just contain beans, vegetables, grains etc compared to dishes with eggs or meat (I don’t even like egg substitutes outside of baking that’s how much I hate anything with texture resembling eggs) and it gives me a sense of being able to control my food anxieties especially when going out and trying new things. ✨
Happy for you! And YES, it DOES feel good to do right by your body! It somehow does so much for the mind and spirit, too, when the body is conscientiously maintained. You look amazing! And sure hope you feel incrediblel, too!
I'm glad you found what works! everybody's body is different and deserves to be taken care of well. congrats!
🙄

This looks delicious and your skin is amazing!
This is very interesting- my vegetarian diet was working horribly for my body, and since becoming keto (nearly the polar opposite), I've lost weight, regained normal B12 levels & regulated my blood sugar. Everybody truly is different & I support you listening to your bodies needs! I'm glad it works for you!
Yes, clean vegan keto can be really helpful.
@@chiyerano I haven't considered vegan keto! I'll have to look into it... what do you recommend for plant based proteins without the carbs?
@@vanessatorres1741 Nuts and seeds come to mind.
@@chiyerano seeds and nuts do have carbohydrates tho
@@kathi3093 Meat does also but they all have carbohydrates in much smaller amounts. Keto is not a carbohydrate free diet no matter what a person eats. That's why there is no such thing as a 'no carb' diet unless you count a diet that is full of nothing but water, fat, and protein isolates. Many nuts and seeds still have less than 10% carbohydrates in calories which can still be suitable for a keto diet.
It's good that you were able to fix your health problems. I myself found out I have acid reflux and changing my diet has made a big improvement. I just stopped eating certain foods and my issues went away. Trust me I know the struggle of giving up certain foods my biggest was coffee.
Ah, yeah, smoking, many cups of coffee, lots of sweets and junk foods and fast food everyday...
You'll escape when you will learn how to cook correctly. Not frying, tho'. Stay away from that.
And... don't eat mint chocolate...
mint chocolate is so sooo bad for reflux.
I don't know what diet I had followed, but mainly home-cooked and healthy foods that were alcaline. And no carbonated beverages. I could eat sweets again only after 3-4 weeks after that alcaline diet because everytime I tried... damn...
it was bad.
Of your start with acidic foods/vegetables, it won't be helpful or a good strategy.
Also...
I've heard about FODMAP diet (foods to avoid if you have irritable bowel syndrome) and maybe this abbreviation would help you acknowledge those foods that might trigger your digestive tract.
Oooouuuu how?! 😫 I am a coffee junkie and the acid is kicking my butt. I don't eat meat but that coffee is crack in my body.
thanks for going plant-based and creating this channel - it's absolutely really truly cool. I really like the recipes on this channel so far!
Good for you for finding what works for you. I had to go very low carb to fix my issues.
As a recovering cheese addict... I feel this.
Going vegan for me fixed many health issues and gave others much relief .One huge change was my skin .It went from reasonably clear to crystal clear ,soft as baby’s skin and for the first time I could tan a little instead of burning! I received complements from everyone who knew me on the change of how I looked and felt . My dad asked what I did .He said I never looked so healthy and vibrant! Some close friends asked me to teach them what I did and ate to look so healthy and they also eventually went vegan !!! After 3 months you feel so good !!!It is incredable !!!
quick advice : extra virgin olive oil is for raw consumption, like a drizzle when yoi serve your dish
it's not for roasting/sautéing as its got a low smoke point (plus you want to keep all the good nutrients, and it can be pretty pricey !) i'd use sesame oil for wok and vegetable oil or refined coconut oil for roasting and sautéing.
Yes I have been trying this plant based diet . ❤️
I have rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia as well as Sjögren’s Syndrome. My symptoms, joint pain, etc., went away going full carnivore. I’m grateful to live where we all have the choice to eat the way that’s best for us. 🧡💪🏼
I have Crohns disease and my diet consists of about 95% meat. Fruits and vegetables will put me in the 'throne' for days and cause severe gastric upset. Low residue (low/no fiber) has been a lifesaver for me. So I completely understand and agree.
Gastrointestinal problems so had to change my eating. The pescatarian way seem best for me at first, but I may eat eggs or lamb but trying to cut those out as well. I also intermittent fast. This journey can be difficult when so many around me eating everything I CAN NOT. I’m at my ideal weight & feel best now. Discipline & exercise has helped me. ❤ 😊I cut out white sugar & high fructose corn syrup, & GMO CORN in everything in USA. READ ALL LABELS ON FOOD, or stay with fresh 🥕 🥦 veggies only!
That's a blessing. Thank God for that.
Thank you for sharing your journey and definitely can relate ❤❤❤
Salad looks delicious wish you showed how an what you put in it 😋
More power to you! Choosing a plant-based lifestyle has been a game-changer for me! Not only have I noticed a positive impact on my health - more energy, clearer skin, and better digestion - but it's also a powerful step towards reducing my environmental footprint.
Yum!! And thank you for calling it plant based instead of vegan because often time people conflate the two as if theyre the same... With plant based being a health focused diet and vegan being an ethical stance related to avoiding all areas of animal use
I’m on my way to majority plant based diet too
That food looks fantastic
I love that you shared your experience without claiming it will work for everyone. You are awesome. And that bowl looks delicious.
Happy to see you found something that helped. Typically the opposite when it comes to stomach issues I've been seeing. I have Crohn's and I get major bubble guts eating plants, not as much with fruits but veggies. Finally started adding animal protein in, and as much as I don't like the flavor my symptoms are less severe, even better
I had a very urgent surgeries when I was 13 and one of them I had to get my gallbladder removed. Ever since then I’ve really bad stomach issues as well, I’m not lactose intolerant and greasy foods, sometimes even salad(depending what’s in it) will cause my stomach to be in so much pain and I’ll have to go to the bathroom. It’s 4 years later and it still has not gone better or went away. I try to be vegetarian or eat less unhealthy foods, I want to do that but my family is not the healthy type I can’t get away from the bad food. When I’m on my own I’m definitely eating healthier for my own sake. Hoping I will no longer have the horrible feeling in my stomach.
Sorry to hear that. thank you for sharing your story! I hope you find a solution to your stomach pains one day
Dear You may have IBS. I was suffering with the same before. I cured it on my own by eating light food like rice, whole foods and strictly avoiding raw foods.
Sorry you going through that. I pray healing over you in Jesus Christ Name.
My lil sister had her gallbladder removed about 2 years ago and has similar issues as you .
God bless you. Hope things get better for you.
I’ve suffered with similar issues my whole life. My biggest indication that my gut wasn’t healthy was severe acne that no medication could touch. I changed my diet to rice (not minute rice), whole foods, zero dairy products unless it’s goat milk, no process food unless it’s a special occasion. Lots of soup, as it tends to keep you hydrated. I’m 33 now and still struggle some but you’ll find balance one day.
Hi. Sorry about you’re discomfort. I’m no doctor, but I’d suggest starting out by totally cutting out dairy. No cow’s milk, cheese, ice cream, none of it. Substitute the cow’s milk and ice cream with nut milk (almond, cashew, etc.) or oat milk, and if you HAVE to have cheese there are a variety of vegan cheeses available now (although they usually have very little nutritional value). Also, I’d suggest adding probiotics every other day, if not every day. This is super important. You can get probiotics by either vegan yogurt, kimchi, kombucha, or probiotic pills. The only dairy that I would say is semi-okay to eat would be yogurt bc of the probiotics and the way it coats your stomach when you’re having discomfort more than vegan yogurt does (for some people). Hope this helps & hope you feel better ❤️ God bless ❤️
Same! I had undiagnosed neuropathy in both arms and was in severe pain and had to wear braces all the time. I went to doctor after doctor, test after test and the last doctor I went to, crying and begging for surgery, anything, told me “Sometimes we don’t know what’s wrong and you just have to learn to live with pain.” I was furious and determined to try anything. Cut all meds and went vegan that day. I have healed 90% so far and still getting better. Thanks for sharing, hugs💕✨
Any doctor that says “learn to live with the pain” should have their medical license removed. I hope you’re doing better now a days
@@deba9194 thank you 😊 I’m doing much better and improving daily. Hugs💕✨
Dude this is so cool. Good for you
Thank you!
Ah gees I'm laying here suffering from I guess neuropathy in legs
Great deal of pain
No help from docs
Really don't know what they honestly do
However, plant base helped you
I'd like t know exactly why eliminating meats foul fish is so detrimental when now I'm reading about Lion diet, meat Sal n water
So very glad you are better
Becoming vegan helped my gastrointestinal problems significantly. I also felt even worse after eating when I ate non-vegan. I'm glad this worked for you as well!
Yes. Good. Eat your vegetables guys. Fibers... But also eat other foods. Balance is the key. Everything in moderation
I used to be on a plant base diet ( yes with supplements ) and both me and my husband felt terribly weak and almost sick for a year an a half. Then we went back to our regular diet and all is back to normal.
Clowns
@@lisanyugenhascancer6332 Are you ok ? ☺️
Yes dear I feel till your normal you will not understand but when there is a health problem..you do whatever good for your health and you want to come back to normal as soon as possible... for that we have follow whatever is best for us.. Health is wealth...absolutely true ...they will only understand who went through health problem
Yes! Love it! It’s a lifestyle! I notice everything about my body now when I eat outside of the scope of my daily food intake.
That salad does look yummy
People dont normally eat enough vegetable as it is. I will not go vegan ever, but I choose a couple days of the week to eat just fruit and veggies to give my digestive system a break. Also a tbsp of metamucil a day wouldnt hurt either. It helps move "things" along 😀
Says a person with a cat profile. Speciesism. We will eat animals but not cats lol
@@lisanyugenhascancer6332 Callate, tu ni sabes cuáles son las razones de esta persona y solo vienes a decir algo de poco valor
@@dasartistic covert it in English and send me. Still you cannot make a point against veganism
i'm having some rashes issues on my body that suddenly erupted. I'm now slowly progressing into plant base cos none of the medications or creams work. This is motivating for me to see thank you!
I really love how you worded this you didn’t claim it works for everyone, or say that it’s the right way to eat, you explained what worked for you.😊
Ehew this looks tasty! Glad adjusting your diet helped you.
i struggle with sever stomach/gi issues and im thinking of going vegetarian bc meat ALWAYS makes me feel so sick, could u maybe make a vid on the issues u had and things u did to transition over? it would be great :)
I'm thinking of this too!:)
This is actually where I am in life! I have Primary Progress Multiple Sclerosis, Crohn’s, hypertension, and who knows what else. I was on the medical merry-go-round with nothing to show for it. Frustrated, I moved to a plant-based diet. My goal wasn’t to cure anything but reduce inflammation (and get closer to a 6-pack if possible 😅).
I’m still learning but transitioning to a plant-based diet has vastly increased my energy, mobility, and memory. I’m not cured by any stretch of the imagination, but I’ve been able to do a lot more in a day than I used to!
I love that you healed yourself with food! It also should be mentioned that eating highly processed plant based food all the time also isn't good for you! Whole foods the majority of the time make a huge difference!
So true I was at my happiest and healthiest when I was on a vegan diet I want to go back.
vegan is not a diet though
What's holding you back from going plant based?
For the record, we eat more than salad.
I’m glad you found a way to make yourself feel better. I don’t eat much milk but what I do is organic, grass fed, wild caught, free roam, etc. I prefer eating less meat just bc it makes more sense to me to eat veggies- like why do we need to kill animals to eat them when there’s plenty of fruits & veggies that are filling & edible. Thanks for sharing your journey.
I did vegetarian from 21 to 39 and vegan from 39 to 53. The only time I didn’t feel optimal was when I decided to do keto for 2 years because everyone said I would lose the weight I had gained while starting peri menopause. I lost weight, hair, all my strength, my muscles went flat as did my mood, and it was then I decided that what I had been doing for all those years was healthier and I just needed to tweak my plant based diet which is what I did. I’m back to lifting all the heavy weights, enjoying complex carbohydrates and feeling happy and well again. I agree that you need to find what works for you and your health.
Totally get it, but in reverse, I was a vegan since high school, but started having multiple health issues through my entire college years, so I started eating meat after I graduated and my health issues just gradually went away…. ❤️
Have had a similar experience. I went vegetarian in 2020 and gradually after almost two years, started having health issues. Have started eating meat again slowly and I feel fuller, more energetic and just healthier and well-nourished. I still enjoy vegetarian foods a lot but try to eat meat whenever I feel like it now.
Eating meat helps with my ibs for some reason. It's a long road of suffering until you find out what works. For some, plant based foods helps them. Our bodies are weird...
Lmfao
This is so fascinating to me, bc some people watch their health get better when they switch to Carnivore while some get better switching to a plant-based diet
This shows how amazing humans are. I had almost the same exact revelation, but in the opposite direction. I'm carnivore and this process has resolved so many health and personal issues for me, I wonder how I ever lived before!
Our bodies rock!!!
What do you eat?
It works for everyone actually.
I’m becoming a nurse practitioner because no one helped me( I have severe PMDD, had to discover that myself and beg a doctor to confirm it), still having to help myself bc western medicine discounts food and lifestyle SO MUCH.
What helped your PMDD?
It looks so tasty 😋
No it doesn't 💀
I'm glad you're feeling better. I hope you will continue to spread this message
Even I also have some kind of similar problem. Dr advised me to maintain plant based diet routine but I don’t know much vegan recipes. I think your channel is going to help me a lot... love from Bangladesh ❤❤🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
I’m not 100% vegetarian but definitely soft vegetarian. I just feel better eating veggies, if a meal has no color I know I’m going to feel sick later.
This is the way to promote plant based diets! It works for you and it's great! Might not work for others, but even someone like me who is just very much stuck with certain foods, due to mental health it's just easier to keep those in my diet, but I still wanna have at least days when i eat plant based.
*Theres no denying this looks great!* 😋
I decided to become meat eater because I had no health Issues and I was an underweight. After being meat eater, I have been enjoying my food a lot more. It have had fixed my weight problem. Now I’m 3 safe Kg away from being an underweight. My skin undertone has changed from yellow to pink and I’m looking 10 years younger than my age.
Sounds like death changed your life. Hope it catches upto you
That’s amazing to hear! I had the same results 💕 seven years later and I can still say it was the best decision to try!
It’s helped so much!! It’s changed life for the better❤❤❤
I tried vegan (i'm pescatarian with some chicken here and there) and I still had explosive diarrhea
I’m glad someone said it. Don’t use tik toks to replace doctors bro lmao. I can’t
@@MaxElizabethboi i'm doing "business" right now haha. It's not pleasant. The best thing to do is to go to a gastroenterologist instead of a blogger lol
@@MaxElizabethboi girl, I be seeing some dumb "health miracles" online that could honestly hurt a lot of people. Use caution as the internet is deceiving.
@@MaxElizabethboi oh you mean doctors that make money off of sick people and can never "find anything wrong" .
Tf did you eat?
It works at first, and then you feel even worse ((
You're doing it wrong
Maybe because you are not eating balanced meals?
@@odin8352 yeah, right))) Believe me, people, who go vegetarian take their time and effort to make sure they eat balanced food🍲
The chickpeas look good. I like to roast them up in my toaster oven with salt,pepper, paprika, and a bit of olive oil.
Yes! My stomach is so much better now as a vegan. I had the nightmare life before.
But still can have issues but it is mostly related to alcohol, sugar and spicy or red food and bad oils. But quiting meat had the biggest impact on my problems for sure!
**pours seed oils**
To each his own, goin vegan gave me so many issues and stomach problems, biggest mistake I ever made
You can stop eating vegan food may be your body wants protein and milk.
What specifically do you think caused the issue? Like what were you eating more of that you weren’t used to eating before?
I’m 62 and vegan for 7 years. Best decision I ever made. I have perfect blood work and take no medications.
That's wild for me how I see so huge variety of diets that work for people, some eat only vegetables, some only meat, and both and other variations can heal from autoimmune diseases or stomach problems. Futhermore it's hard to justify some of the cases by academically correct way of nutrition. I think there is so much more for us to learn about the way our bodies work it's crazy.
Fish is rich in omega3.. so don't blame your health issues on non veg food. Stop alcohol, smoking, late nights and food with preservatives
Now, fish is rich in microplastics and mercury too. Plant based diets are rich in phytochemicals and fibre which can help with a lot of health issues by improving our gut microbiome.
@@zo.yeahhh can't agree with you... You should come to India n see the pple living in the coastal belt are fish eaters and have gorgeous skin and hair. They are v healthy. In the west the culture of takeaways and preservatives are the no. 1 reason for health problems.
Back here too pple who follow western culture of eating unhealthy french fries are facing health issues
I drink alot of coffee and no water and just some food but im fat. I have a vitamin deficiency and i suffer fron dehydration. Now im learning what foods work and i what i need and like. The fact that my 3yr old loves to be in the kitchen has been fun. 1 step at a time
I have no idea why this has so many dislikes, the salad looks pretty good and she's not being all preachy. Just explaining her personal decision.
It's got dislikes because there's huge astroturf project against veganism.
To some people it is other way around
Good for you I am happy for you
Glad you are sharing this. I've been adding more fresh vegetables to my diet and feel better. Your videos encourage me. **You might consider getting rid of nonstick coated pans and alluminum pots next, doing this helped me so much.
I'm happy it worked for you. I have some health issues: pcos, cfs, fibromyalgia, and ibs... I tried plant based diet so many times before because I hate the taste of meat, meat fats, butter, milk etc but it didn't work for me all... The ibs symptoms and fatigue became worse over the time until reach to where I can't handle it anymore. I have I stopped eating so many things and was only eat white rice, chicken breast, and chicken broth until I got better.
Now I have eating problems because the food my body accepts are mostly the food I can't handle their taste, so I sometimes lose my appetite completely for days or even weeks... It's really a struggle, I hope one day I'll be able to eat normally like others do.
Yeeeeessss!
It blows my mind how many people will flat out put veganism down, and never believe our testimonies.
Helps so much with fibro, pcos, gut issues, so so so much more!!!!
I haven’t eaten meat for 2 years now and I’ve never felt better. I listened to my body because I literally felt sick seeing and eating meat. Its misconception that vegetarians/vegan are nutrition deficient. Its about knowing how to eat properly, having food that has protein and iron + supplements from time to time.
I remember when I was a vegetarian cause I used have belly issues as well and helped me a lot and I’m glad it helped you.👍
when i wasn’t eating meat often, i always felt lethargic and had so many digestion issues to the point where my stomach hurt after every time i ate ! period cramps were at an all time high… i included more meat in my diet and i feel so much better. maybe it was the protein specifically (although i ate a lot of nuts and eggs and beans so idk) but it is so interesting how everyone’s body works so differently~
Me too I had to do the same thing and it's been working for me throughout all these years. Thank you for your video God Bless.
Going vegan really helped me recover from my Ed!
I had the opposite experience. Years of vegetarianism and semi vegetarianism left me with deficiencies and hormonal issues. I eat more red meat now than I ever have and I'm feeling better every day!
You know you're a mature person and a grown up when you like your vegetables more than junk food or even meat or fish!!!! Growing up I absolutely hated eating vegetables....and now I'm 23 and one of my favourite things to eat is lady fingers and bitter gourd
That’s so much nutrients and vitamins in one plate. Yumm!!!!!
The same happened to me and at first the people around me didn't understand either, until they tried the food I made and now they make their own vegetarian meals too. Its so strange how the world views meals as if the meat is the central part of it and how mind blowing it is when they real7se its not.
I listen to what my brain tells me. I eat a balanced diet that includes meat, fish, dairy, eggs, poultry etc. There are some essential nutrients that the body needs that can only be found in meat and poultry. However, after a couple of days, my body craves vegetables and lots of fruit because they contain fiber and if I don’t eat them, I suffer from severe constipation. I am super healthy, I work out every now and then, I drink plenty of water, I dont smoke and I avoid alcohol, I sleep 7-8 hrs and the only thing I avoid eating is fast food. So yeah, listen to your body and know what your body needs. I saw a channel here on you tube I think, called vegan deterioration and I saw how some people who only eat plant based diets suffer from severe mental and physical problems. So please, dont jump into a diet that may work for someone and not for you. Our bodies are different.💐💚
I'm so glad you mentioned that different diets work for different people. For some people, a vegetarian diet is amazing but for others it'll make them sick. So diets heavily rely on "what works for you"
It can heal many issues if you just can stay with it for 2 to3 months or less then It gets easy and you wonder why you waited so long !!!❤❤❤
I didn't know I was mildly allergic to milk. Not lactose intolerant but allergic. Didn't know why I suffered from nausea every day. Then I went more plant based, not 100% but still. Suddenly not sick.
Everyone is different and when you find what works you stick with it. I’m not plant based (but do eat those types of products) but I do eat a lot of veggies and am gluten free and dairy free because I’m intolerant. I found what worked for me and I feel way better than feeling achy and in chronic pain all the time.
