This January first , I have been on a whole food plant based diet for 5 years and quite active at 81 years of age. I am very thankful for those who started on it.
48 years old, and 5 weeks in for me, I mean for me no oil no dairy meat fish, fed up of people saying to me why have you gone vegan, big difference between vegan and full plant based diet, vegan mate of mine still has oil salt and butter spread eats crisps and has sugar in his coffee, and eats junk food
A real doctor! I have worked in emergency medicine as a RN and Paramedic for 17 years and have never seen a doc as honest and professional as MD Klaper.
Plant-based news promotes propaganda that fish and meat are unhealthy and actively prompts vegan junk food from subway and KFC and McDonald's so what is it is vegan about your health or the animals if it is about health then why do you make videos when a non-vegan restaurant make vegan junk food I but go all on abord when talking about unprocessed food like fish I wonder Plus The title should be why vegan doctors like to hate anything that's non-Vegan I can make a whole video about why brown rice is unhealthy because the high level of arsenic cause cancer so therefore brown rice is unhealthy what about the DHA IN Fish is better than ALA in plants and much more bioavailable I think I would rather listen to what longest living healthy Japanese are eating whole food unprocessed diets just because most vegans are less likely to smoke and drink alcohol and eat less processed food doesn't mean that vegan diets are Heather at all the fact that pesco-vegetarians had the lowest hazard ratio for all-cause mortality in the Adventist Health Study 2 despite pollution? I can see the ecological and other ethical problems with eating seafood, but doesn't epidemiology contradict the claim that a vegan diet is healthier than a pescovegetarian diet? I don't think I know better, it's just that I see some contradiction here. This study on vegans' use of saying vegan being Heather than meat-eater has clearly shown the opposite true with the fish-eater this doesn't mean vegan diets are unhealthy but not optimal as whole food plants based with some fish since this diet provides all the nutrients from plants and B12 DHA and more biologically available vitamins A and D, therefore, non-vegan diets can be slightly Heather than WFPBD Not all vegans eat this diet vegans do eat refined carbs also added vegetable oils and mock meats are not correct to say that vegans are automatically Heather because their diet is vegan Any idea, why pesco-vegetarians had the lowest hazard ratio for all-cause mortality in the Adventist Health Study 2 despite pollution? I can see the ecological and other ethical problems with eating seafood, but doesn't epidemiology contradict the claim that a vegan diet is healthier than a pescovegetarian diet? I don't think I know better, it's just that I see some contradiction here. Thanks for your reply. The level of mercury in fresh Atlantic salmon is 220 parts per billion mercury so which means That a 3oz serving is equal to 85 grams of Salmon 220/1000000000 equal 0.00000022 grams of mercury x1000 to milligrams then it's 0.00022 milligrams x1000 to micrograms then it's 0.22 microgram x85 for 3oz serving 18.7 micrograms of mercury The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that 0.1 mcg per kg) of body weight per day is the maximum safe dose of mercury. So 18.7 mcg from fish I am weighing about 73kg that's about 161 lb So Roundabout 0.10mcg per lb so my exposure Is within the safe non-risk limit if I eat 85 grams every day which is a lot I eat about 85 grams of salmon 3 times a week so my total consumption a week is about 255grams that's equal to 9oz a week Now we have to x3 the exposure of mercury that's come at 18.7/161 = 0.116149068322981 x3 = 0.348447204968943 Roundabout 0.35 I have to 7x the safe expound limit of 0.1 x7 = 0.7 mcg per pound per week is safe to limit I only would get 0.35 which is well within the safe limit so at this level heavy metals like mercury are completely harmless to get a negative effect you need to be exposed serval times the upper safe limit so you are wrong about fish contains omega 3 and DHA that helps the brain development and lower heart disease anyways if you are still concerned about this explore it safe to eat fish a couple of times a week the benefits of fish completely outweigh the negative so stop spending misinformation If you still are stubborn about not eating heavy metal you do know that you're exposed to heavy materials at a far higher amount from second-hand smoke brown rice has arsenic that's doesn't mean that brown rice is unhealthy like fish the benefits outweighs the drawbacks of combining fish with prominently plant-based is optimal for health 👍 I am not saying that if you don't eat fish you will be unhealthy or anything you could live as healthy Without eating animals products as well I am just trying to inform people that spending misleading information about the health effects of eating meat and fish is toxic does not help promote veganism because veganism has All to do with animals' ethics and the environment because both of these aspects are harming animals directly or indirectly While health is a personal choice nice logic very mon biased video 😂😂
Dr Klaper has saved my life. 1 video. Same day I stopped smoking, alcohol, sugars and dairy and became a vegan thriving on the real foods God provided for us.7 days have passed now. All my addictions have gone. I no longer want to take my own life. 😊👍
That is amazing!! Only vice I have left is smoking, I have advanced multiple Sclerosis and have not responded to treatment...I threw my cigarettes away, going to try veganism!! Good luck to you
@@rubyrootless7324 all good. Still going. Had super fitness until covid got me. No exercise for a month now. I wasn't sick but the iso devastated everything that I worked hard to acheive.
JAMIE GOSDEN don’t know you, but I hope you’re doing well! Sorry to hear that isolation is getting to you. I’m going to make a change soon as well. Thank you for your comment!
Imagine the satisfaction the profession as a whole would get, by doing the same... I left nursing after 28 years, because I'm not willing to poison people.
the claims he makes about carnivores not being healthy after 6 months + are insane. Jordan Peterson has been doing it for 2 years and is thriving! CLEARLY A LIAR!!!! He proves how badly damaged his brain is! SICK SICK MAN
@Tina nutrient deficiency happens much quicker with vegans. I'm not going to waste time with you. Enjoy eating heaps of vegetables that burden your digestive system and make your body toxic. I know for a fact that carnivore is the way to health. This doctor looks like a dead rack of bones. If that's what you want to look like, go vegan.
my mom is an MD and she has been a fan of plant-based medicine for as long as I know her, she once told me that one of her patients was so thankful that he came for the next checkup with a bunch of kale and lettuce he had been growing to show his thankfulness.
What does being a MD have to do with anything? People use these titles as if this means they have more insight within certain topics... MD's is not a profession you want to strongly use as a encouraging statement when it comes to nutrition as most MD's will tell you that they're under trained in nutrition, the standard student only needs 24-48 hours in nutrition to which it's already been discovered decades ago that their training and education is doctored by influenced companies who put out studies based arou d epidemiology and observational reports lol, just by using MD you've discredited your moms opinion. This is kinda what I hate about vegans, they're so quick to through titles. I've spoken to 6 this week who all claimed to be nutritionists and dieticians yet not one of them could tell me the difference without using Google. Veganism and plant based is a species inappropriate diet... Explain to me how it's good route to take? Most become sick at some point for a reason. It's a diet that centers around malnutrition as its the only diet outside of the SAD diet that has nutrients missing ontop of having antinutrients... But don't worry it gets worse. Plant toxins, the body and temperature can rid some of it however these toxins build such as Lectins, Amines, Tannins, Trypsin inhibitors,Fodmaps, Salicylates, Oxalates, Sulfites, benzo ates, MSG, Non protein amino acids, Glycosides ,Akaloids including solanine and chaconine, Triterpenes,Lignins, Saponins, Phytic acid, Glutan and Isoflaones... Explain to me how veganism is a healthy diet? Most of nutrition as a whole has been bought and paid for, studies have been tipped in the direction of the influencer (companies like Big Pharma who need to keep you sick in order to sell product). Hell because of nutrition there's still people out there who believe that "Bad cholesterol" is a actual thing lol, and that Red meat and Saturated fat... Which is the most nutrient dense of any food is somehow bad for you lol, our species survived with meat and Saturated fat for centuries yet now its a problem. Go look at Nitrogen 14 and 15 isotopes and the trophic levels within human beings within the last 350,000 years and actually learn something. You mom too as she clearly needs better education, how is your mom a MD and not know about this? Bet she also doesn't know that low cholesterol is actually the problem as it increases all cause mortality compared to high. You're setting yourself up for failure, no where in the medical literature has veganism ever been proven to be safe beyond ten years, meat on the other hand has been shown by our ancestors. Don't look at epidemiological studies and observational reports as those are typically what vegans go for because you can basically find anything to support your narrative as they remain worse fields of study within the nutrition world. Only look at peer reviewed reports. Hell you're listening to doctors and nutritionists who specialize in only one area... Veganism, do you understand how unintelligible that is? Imagine your doctor only knowing about hang nails and nothing else yet you want to digest this non sense? Is no one smart these days? No one can research the actual science and not what they want the science to show? Lol
I adore this man! My family and I met him when he toured Australia with his symposium, I started following his work after. What a humble, energetic, kind-hearted guy. And still living such a brilliant life. Cheers for this!
Don’t mean to be rude, but he looks 80++.. at first I thought he was 86, I was shocked when I realised he was 73. My mum is the same age as him and is a meat eater, she looks so much better than him. His skin has an unhealthy yellow tinge, unless it’s betacarotenemia.

Leo Licht I'm currently transitioning to a plant-based vegan diet. I'm doing quite well but have had a few.slip-ups. I'm good on theory but not always so great at practice. I'm getting there, though. I have hypertension, among other things, so I need to succeed to avoid a stroke or other CVD-related illness, not to mention helping to protect our beautiful animals and planet. It's great to hear stories of cure like yours.
Another great interview! Thanks so much, I was smiling through the entire interview. I do have to say that even on a wfpb diet I still gain weight easily. I became vegetarian 40 years ago (health based). ( 18 yrs old) No processed sugars, limited dairy and eggs, whole grains. Then became gluten and dairy free 20 years ago and egg and oil free 2-3 years ago. So we're talking 40 years of eating with a healthy awareness. I've managed to keep my weight off, I'm active and have always done physical labor but I still have to stop with one serving. I attribute this to weak adrenals. Was intolerant to dairy and sugar and gluten my entire life without realizing it. Not positive I was gluten intolerant all that time or if it developed from the regular assault from dairy and sugar (honey) all those years but also had a very stressful childhood. Was in a state of fear most of the time from birth. So this stress on my adrenals has no doubt burned them out. So my metabolism is slow, my blood pressure is 110/70 and my body temp is around 96. I get cold easily when not moving. So yes, there seems to be good reason for me to have to portion control. I just wanted to put this out there that not all wfpb folks can eat until the cows come home.
I was vegan...but I changed to a whole foods plant based living..no oil..no processed foods and no snacks... I'm loving it!!!! Edit...no animal products either
I am a simple blue collar worker, for the last 3 years I have been studying how to stay healthy. I have had a open mind and have read books and watched countless you tube videos with each expert justifying their own doctrine with data. Well here is my take on this, just look at the people around you. Who takes multiple drugs, can't walk to the store,and has health problems. Plus does my teeth look like my dog or cat. I don't put meat in my compost pile to feed my garden, oh yes I am really feeding the microbes in the soil. And what are we feeding in our bodies , our gut microbes. Eating a WFPBD makes a lot of sense to me. Just made up my mind to make the change this week.
Congrats! I've been eating WFPB for over two years now and I still go to the gym and lift, I feel great. From my research, I don't see any better alternative diet right now. I eat whatever I want that isn't processed and it's very easy to do this. I was in steel and welding, concrete work, lifting heavy and sweating outside in 116 degrees summers... And my WFPB diet had me running circles around my colleagues. More energy than ever, strong af, and aesthetically pleasing. Take care of yourself, do 5x5 workout in the gym 3 days a week (approx 45 min workout sessions) and eat healthy, you'll be amazed at how you can transform. Take it slow and try your best to add any exercise possible if you can't in the beginning. Consult your doctor and make sure you get the go ahead, get second or third opinions if you need, and maybe consider a trainer who specializes in your health problems for one or two sessions to make sure you are not risking injury etc.... I hope you thrive and feel great. Eat lots of quinoa + black beans, that is my staple food basically.
Way to go! I *also* did the research and whole food plant based has been my diet since 2010 when my brother died of colon cancer. Yo, it's one of the more preventable cancers! I'm 61 now and feel awesome....I work full time and haven't needed a sick day from work in over 14 years...I donate blood pretty much every 65 days and have NEVER been turned away due to low iron or any other reason. I *do* supplement B-12 once a week and have recently added vegan DHA.
Vegan for 20yrs never get ill, just when I thought I couldn't feel better, I cut out flour oil & salt 3yrs,thriving, you have just made the best decision in your life👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 congrats 😄 not sure what your cooking skills are like yet??? Because that is another plus most vegans are great cooks😂 Try u tube The happy pear 5min vegan dinner,s, You can not get quicker than that😂 U tube full of great nutritious recipes, Oh definitely check out Doctor Micheal Gregger site NutritionalFacts.org😉
Went whole food plant based over a decade ago. Gout, cholesterol, diabetes, overweight all gone. Energy way up. I've never felt better. All my blood tests, year after year, are right where they need to be. I am never going back to eating animals.
Same, decreased my LDL substantially and have more energy with better digestion and less gut issues, not to mention that I feel so much better mentally knowing that I'm not funding animal exploitation and abuse.
@@cynicalidealist11:Hmm not funding animal exploitation and abuse, you are eating just plants? But aren't they grown in soil, full of microorganisms and bacteria, are there any herbicides, insecticides, pesticides, fungicides used on the soil and plants? How many insects and wild animals are killed through such a way of agriculture? What about the wastes of these methods, they are released into nature and the water. Eating plants in a modern world kills microorganisms, insects, wild animals and so on. Eating animal products also kills animals, so what is the solution? If one eats animal products from good sources (environmental and agricultural) there is not so much harm, same can be true if one grows own food in the garden, but nevertheless you always effect the environment if you just live you release a footprint in nature whether you like that or not. I don't think that most vegans even realize how much damage is done to the environment by eating even plant based. And by the way plants grow in the soil full of bacteria and earthworms. They release their animal excrements into the soil which are then absorbed by plants. So all of us are consuming animal products wanted or unwanted. Its the symbioses way of life. Have you ever seen the videos where deer and cows are eating very young chickens alive, i was really shocked when i saw that believing that these animal were strict herbivores but they are not. Even elefants, gorillas and rhinos are eating plants and animals so where is the difference? Or do you think that an elefant or rhino picks the plants and clears it of all bacteria and insects before eaten? I don't think so. I came to realize that veganism is a religion, an ideology or cult over the last years and i should know because i was a vegan for more then seven and a half years. I ate plant based and 98% of the time healthy but it still got worse and worse. I think i kind of developed a preform of insulin resistance i was tired and unconcentrated for 2 to 4 hours almost 5 to 6 days every week. Then i put my vegan agenda aside and tried vegetarian again. My symptomes went away on the first day, my cognitive abilities went through the roof my tiredness is now almost gone (still have it from time to time if i eat to much carbs which i have reduced now significantly to feel better), i am much happier now and feel way healthier then in my last 5 years. I don't think that i will ever go back to the vegan diet, not if that could potentialy kill me in the long term. I will listen to my body and will do what is best for it, even if it is hard to give up my believes. I am not convinced that the vegan lifestyle is the best way or diet for everyone, it didn't worked for me, maybe for others and i wish them the best of luck whether plant based or meat based or both but in the end everyone has to find a diet and lifestyle that works for him.
"A flesh based diet for 8 billion people three times a day? What an arrogant, elitist, outrageous, planet destroying approach to nutrition." Hit so many nails on the head.. this is such an enlightening interview which I'm certain a lot of people needed to see. I've always had the utmost respect for Dr. Klaper.
Afaik a meat eater eats one cow a year but a vegan diet kills way more insects and small animal + has to be shipped from 15 different countries im surethats way better for the planet than buying local products xd
@@bluelightmoon777 Thank you, for your comment, I get my raw milk, cream, pasturet eggs, and meat from a organic farmer, five minutes from were I live in Switzerland.
This is the kind of story I am curious to hear about… I have recently been trying to switch to Vegan/plant based food for ethical reasons, but I have thyroid issues… I used to be overactive and then they treated me with radioactive iodine so now I’m underactive forever, and apparently that can’t be changed… I want to do The right thing for The planet and my body but I often find I am anxious that maybe I’m going to end up deficient in iron or something else and end up feeling like I have even less energy and more mental health issues and I’ve already had. I work in the health food shop and I feel like I’ve met a lot of people who said they’ve been vegan sometimes up to 10 years and then found themselves feeling very ill and they blame the vegan diet. I guess I don’t know what is in each person specific diet, but my boyfriend who has been vegan for 10 years said I need to look for more stories from people who have been Long-term vegan and healthy at the same time! Anyway need to watch more of the video! Thanks for sharing a bit of your story
Look into Brooke Goldner. She's another MD who accidentally discovered that the vegan diet can do wonders for diseases. The woman cured herself from lupus. Lupus is supposed to be incurable. It sounds insane, like it can't be real, but she's helped to cure or at least put into remission people who have debilitating, chronic illnesses. She has worked with hundreds and hundreds of patients, thyroid patients included. All of her research and information is free. She even teaches free classes. I'm about to start her protocol because I'm a clean eating 25 year old and I have heart disease and an automimmune condition.
Haviskam me either man, I keep waiting for them to ask me to open the bible to a chapter but this “niceness” it’s actually common trait among a lot of vegans
Love how this guy is outraged by how modern medicine is so crooked and misinformed. Plant based nutrition is the best possible medicine. Garbage in=garbage out
Plant based & modern medicine are not mutually exclusive. Lots of modern medicine comes from the plant, it is just standardized so that results can be predicted.
@@thedoc5848 There are many sickly, obese vegans but Whole Food Plant Based vegans are very different. You can eat oreos and drink soda all day and call yourself a vegan but not a healthy vegan.
@@thedoc5848 I think you need to do much more research before you comment on this subject. Our doctor is very impressed with all our blood test results and the only supplement she has told us to take is a B12 and everyone needs to take a B12 supplement.
@@reyrey6295 I'm great thanks, still vegan, I wish you all the best changing to vegan, if you want any help just give us a message and I will get back to you quickly
i was diagnosed with heart failure, mild atherosclerosis, and diabetes. the pfizer vaccine did a number on me because i wasnt healthy. i blame myself for not being on a plant based diet.
Dr. Klaper is so sweet and compassionate. We need more doctors like him who actually want to help their patients. I couldn't stop smiling the whole time, especially when he was beaming talking about how he happy he is when his patients get better ☺️
Well, I believe most doctors actually DO want to help patients...that's why they go into medicine...the unfair thing is that most are taught NOTHING about nutrition! Not their fault....just gently saying.
I'm 33 now. Been Vegan since I was almost 28 I'm 6"2. I'm a big guy naturally too. Absolutely loved eating meat before. Reckon I'd still enjoy it now. I've recently switch from Vegan to a wholefoods plantbased diet. LOVING IT.
i literally cry. I am a vegan medical student and i always get comments about how my diet isnt healthy. The society must get the education. Thanks for the viedo :)
You should keep studying until you reach the full circle because if you are stuck in plant world you have not truly gained the power of functional food... you are still restricting an entire food group for reasons that are mostly lies
Keep going! Im vegan since the end of october ^-^ i was checking vegans for years and got informations about that. I think its good, at least for me and for everyone who wants to be a vegan. I wish my parents would like to eat the food i make too, but they say "food" without meat isnt a real meal.
@@TTR83 you can believe your parents and i believe whatever i want. And if i would believe some strangers at the internet, i would believe that meat is good for me and being vegan is bad, i think there exist a lot more persons who say that being vegan is bad, because they are scared of having to live a life without their favourite food. They dont want to see whats going on in the world and they want to be blind, because they dont want to see that the world gets destroyed, that animals suffer and a lot of persons die because of sicknesses who are most times caused because of consuming meat and animal products. Im living without meat now since 19 years. I was a pescetarian for 18 years. But the last two years of my pescetarian time i didnt consume much fish anymore, so i thought i could just stop eating fish too. I was eating fish because of the healthy fats, was telling me that i need it. But i dont. And its possible to live without diary products too without having problems with your health, as long as you eat the stuff that contains the vitamines you need. If you just eat pommes with ketchup then you are an unhealthy vegan and you will get sick for sure. Like 10 years ago i was laughing about vegans too. Sure i understand where they came from, but i thought they are too extreme, till i opened my eyes. Now every meat eater is just consuming corpses in my eyes. And to my healthstate, my parents are a lot more sick than i am. Last time i was sick was 2,5 years ago.
I love this man , so eloquent, so honest and so right . We need more Doctors who believe the obvious, that food is medicine and plant based is the only way forward 🌱💕
Eating organic healthy vegetables beside clean free range proteins is a totally different story. I have tried a vegetarian diet 5 times in my life and it did not work for me. I became bloated, weak and deficient each time. My constitution does not do well unless I am able to eat some meat. I don't want to eat meat because I don't like killing animals. It really bothers me. But I think different people need different diets. Yet vegetarians resort to shaming meat eaters. I am blood type O; so maybe it is vital for me. I eat consciously and I also eat plenty of vegies and at 65 years old I am not on a single Rx drug.
If you are eating vegetarian you are missing the point. It does not work for you because you are eating animal protein in the eggs you eat and the milk and cheese and butter you eat. If you eat a whole food plant based diet you would see a big difference. I know because I have been eating this way for over 10 years and the difference in my health is nothing short of miraculous.

@@m.j.carlson8246 People don't realize that carnism is a belief system. Not only that, it's a dominant belief system held by most of society. Every recommendation a carnist doctor makes is influenced by the very fact that he or she is a carnist. It's a huge source of bias, and because it's so dominant as to be invisible, it's really hard to point out to people. Acknowledging carnism when your whole life is permeated with carnism is like trying to look at your own face without a mirror.
@@jeremiahbaxter6887 So true. Can we make a new plant for vegans only? Then again, all jokes aside, we actually do need a new planet. Why? Carnists destroying the Earth.
Dr Klaper comes across as such a nice bloke, so intelligent and caring, I'd love to meet him and give him a big hug. Can't wait to watch Game Changers, bring it on 🌱 thanks for the great interview Klaus ✌️
Wow. I'm deeply impressed. I'm in my third week of being a vegan, and I'm loving it. Better performance in sports, more awareness and energy. What a beautiful feeling to have, after almost 2 years of low to very low carb/keto dieting. This is what I have been looking for!
What a fantastic interview! Dr. Klapper's book on raising vegan children was the first (and only) book of its kind over 25 years ago when my parents made the decision to raise me vegan from birth!
I'll be 70 in January, been plant based for 7 years now. The medical profession are always surprised when I say 'no' to their question 'Are you on any medication?' because at my age they assume I need blood thinners at least. I have never, ever been asked at any stage of my life 'What do you eat?' this seems grossly negligent on the part of the medical profession.
what an inspirational person. Such wise, compassionate and sweet soul. I wish every doctor would be like him. True passion to cure people and seek the truth
His explanation as to why people retreat back to animal diets was the most honest and intelligent answer I've heard. Social pressure and meats changing our physiology since infantry. No bs excuses like "nutrient deficiency" or its "too hard." Much respect to Dr. Klaper. for his knowledge and activism.
> _"Social pressure"_ Especially this. People don't want to become outsiders at work and family parties, and whatnot. But it's still better to eat healthy and have some bad "snacks" every now and then, than to eat foods that are bad for your health every single day. As he also pointed out in one of these videos, it will be you laying in the hospital bed at the end of the day if your bad food habbits will go too far, not someone else.
I have had friends complain of low energy and hair loss on plants only. I’ve experienced hair loss myself. Prob. not enough protein. It’s easy for me to go days on just greens and fruit & forget to eat plants with higher protein. Yes you can get deficient even on the best of plants if you just eat your favorites.
What a wonderful interview. Especially the last few minutes are summarizing the reasons for the necessity of a profound change on this planet. Thank you thank you thank you so much.
Powerful video!! My wife and I are 69 and 70, and we have been plant-based for over 10 years. The ways that our health and lifestyle have improved are too numerous even to wrap my brain around, much less to itemize them all. It's a total life changer and health changer. We never get ill, we still go snow skiing and go to a gym 3 days a week, and we fully intend to live to 100 with no ailments. The WORST part of being plant-based is observing all the people in restaurants and everywhere who are so unhealthy and not plant-based and my being powerless to change them! Nobody wants to hear about changing their diet. They would rather continue down their sickly path, eating badly, taking their meds, going to hospitals, and dying prematurely. It's tragic and very sad to watch!
Dr. Klaper was my first vegan diet guru back in the early eighties. He has remained a clear supporting voice in my on-going vegan lifestyle. I owe him a debt that I can only pay by spreading the valuable message he preaches to everyone I can.
do you think it'd be productive for people like F r e e l e e to remind Dr. Klaper that he's not vegan but rather "plant based" because he slipped up and ate some fish and animal products at one point on his journey before ultimately making the switch? What's your opinion on other vegans shaming people and publicly humiliating others making a conscious effort?
Dr. Klaper did a study about 10 years ago on vegans who were "failing to thrive." He took their blood tests and tried to find commonalities. The study found they they were deficient in a bunch of nutrients. I wonder why he didn't mention this study. It seems pertinent to the topic at hand, don't you think? I can't post links on this channel for some reason, but google "doctor klaper vegan health study" and it should be the first link.
The vegans were deficient in: branched chain amino acids (that's right, protein), omega 3 fatty acids, a bunch of minerals, and an endogenous antioxidant called CoQ10. They also had high inflammatory markers because of elevated omega 6 fatty acids.
@@teljordan9236 That's because a vegan diet isn't necessarily healthy. Most vegans consume oils, sugars, processed fake meats, etc... Just like most omnivores have health problems because of eating junk foods, many vegans also have health problems from eating junk foods. The only difference is that people blame the vegan diet when someone has issues on it but nobody blames an omnivore diet when someone gets heart disease or cancer.
Sounds like after a period of time your body would catch up so to speak... Wonder if it takes longer for some. I see some people really do experience issues when they as plant eaters start exercising more... (not just first months or so) and feel better when they eat animal foods again. I do not think they are imagining it. Interesting to know the exact causes. Would be nice to have a plant based ”detective doctor” help you in those situations. Of course some will argue that we are omnivores and need some animal foods, period. But that is obviously not true either...
Dr. Klaper looks awesome in this interview! And clear and kind thinking, if this is not enough as example I don't know what is! Thank you for this so needed channel guys. 💚💚💚🕉
Vegan almost 4 years now, best choice of my life, my blood tests and everything are better than before. Some people I know also went vegan and haven't changed that as of now \m/
What are you talking about. Humans thrived on animal products for millions of years and there is no known mechanism that explains how meat exactly causes cancer. On the other hand, your vegan diet is new and unproven. No group has ever lived on it for generation after generation. Why? Cause it can't work. Evolution has already proven this to us. And those populational studies you guys keep showing. Correlation does not imply causation. Look up weston A price. Indigenous groups that lived on mainly animal fats had amazing health. And environmental? I can live on 1 cow and a few local veggies for a year. The cow converts grass to almost every nutrient i need, can't be more efficient then that. To sustain your diet you have to fly in all kinds of foods from all over the world. Not to mention the soy and grain fields that kill millions of small animals too. Your just a brainwashed fool.
Ive been vegan for 4 yrs and can honestly say that I feel no more or less healthy then when I was eating meat! However now Im not a psychopathic dickwad who contributes to animal cruelty and murder so Im gonna have to stick with the morally uncorrupt diet thanks! :)
Dr. Klaper is a legend. I appreciate all of his work and moved by his activism. Thank you for sharing this interview Klaus, and all that you on PBN. Canada's new Food Guide is mostly plant-based!
Katuni........ So superficial. His physque is probably his natural honest state. He 70 something. Have you seen elders? Not obese folk. Or a elderly person with plump skin?! That is plastic surgery. Joan Rivers for instance. Hello this is a White man. Black, India, native Americans, South American Indian...... That gene pool can stay plump. Come to my country, come to Scotland. Look at this man's eyes. Very very bright. So quick and intelligent. My ballet teacher is 81 and dead slim and papery skin but so strong, intelligent and spry. Be a doer and not a me tooer !!!! Go eat some plants and wheeshed!!!
@@sassafrasstree7449 No thank you. I let the pigs and cows eat the vegetables ... I eat the animals afterward. Saves me from farting and injecting synthetic B12.
@ Katuni Strasse - you are eating the synthetic B12 that is injected in the animals, along with steroids and growth hormone. And I'm quite sure you fart.
@Channel Dark Blue, any diet can be done wrong, I have seen vegans that gave up that only ate fruit smoothies (very unhealthy). However, a well planned vegan diet is healthy for all stages of life according to the Academy of Dietetics and Nutrition, the largest authority on nutrition in the entire world with over 100,000 credentialed professionals. Going vegan is good for your health, the planet, human rights, and the animals. It is such an easy thing to do with such profound benefits.
Drs.Klaper, McDougall, Esselsteyn, Colin Campbell and Neil Barnard are my favorite team for nutrition . The funny thing is they recommend the same lifestyle that my great - grandmother followed out of necessity, and lived in good health to 102 yo. The most difficult concepts to comprehend are the obvious ones...
@@christinahagan1427 : there are a lot of others, of course, I just listed the "Masters"... Frankly for me personally it was T.Colin Campbell's book that made me switch to a WFPB lifestyle, together with the realization that everybody in my family in my parents' generation died of cancer.
20:50 - My Mum suddenly died of cancer this year. I tried to talk to doctors about encouraging her to at least eat greens every day (She's in her a 70s and a stubborn) and they did very little. One (fat as heck doctor) was like, she can eat ice cream all day. We just can't afford to her to get amaciated. She never took her healthy seriously because Doctors were always like "Good job Sherly, you're healthy for your age." And she was overweight for years and sure she's her own person etc, but I blame piece of crap doctors, because she trusted all of them and every single one of them let her down. Never talking to her about the importance of a genuinely healthy diet.
It's hard for doctors to give up what they've trusted, been trained in, and been paid and admired for for years. It's also hard for people to change their lifestyle. Forgive them so you can move on, you did your best x
@@jan854 I struggled with this as well, definitely with pizza! But it does get easier 😋 if you're from the UK and are looking for good vegan cheese, I definitely recommend Applewood's range. Good luck 👍🏻
I finally found the plant-based whole foods diet. Before that I was the potato chip munching, soda swigging vegan, and sicker than a dog. Had heartburn everyday taking stomach pills multiple times the day, still wound up throwing up acid almost every night, I mean of course what else could I expect? The sad part is after eating whole foods for a while and feeling unbelievably fantastic, I fell off the wagon and went back to eating crap (it was vegan but it was still crap), in short-order I started getting sick sick sick again. Lesson learned! I'm back to eating a whole food plant-based vegan diet back to feeling fabulous, and I'm staying that way!!!
What helps me is to look at the food and ask myself, "is this how it looks in nature?" Donuts don't grow on trees, and potato chips aren't pulled out of the ground. That makes it easy to avoid processed junk. But it's important to always read ingredient labels too.
Am I the only one finding it incredible disturbing that americans have sickness with obvious causes and still take several pills a day even though the pain wont vanish? Here in europe when you have pain you might take a pill to cure an inflammation and you are done. No one kills of the pain with pills instead of curing the underlying condition. Your health system is fucked, innit?
I'm transitioning to a whole foods plant-based diet slowly, because of my lupus. I, too, have GERD, and it's encouraging to know that it will help. I'm not sure I'll ever go full-on vegan, but I've cut back so drastically over the last year on dairy and meat. I'm more of a flexitarian now, but I still eat a lot of crap. I've convinced myself, for instance, that sweet potato chips are "healthy."
The dr.’s teeth are beautiful and healthy. They look like his real teeth. I dedicated my life to helping folks keep their teeth healthy so I noticed. It’s a testament to the plant based diet.
Dr. Klaper is brilliant. I love how a WFPB HCLF way of eating had helped me with my disordered eating habits such as weighing my food and obsessing over calories.
Oh my word, that first rant from Dr. Klaper. I think I heard gunshots and explosions going off in the background as he finished. Jesus.... and Klaus literally couldn't contain his joy hahaha
Anyone else notice that 0:49 Klaus realized his pun in "clapping" after saying Dr. Klapper and then proceeds to clap again. Haha I got a good chuckle out of that!
Dr. Klaper seems like such a warm human being who just wants to help people. And how he starts beaming when he talks about healing patients - heartwarming!
“I did not go into medicine to manage chronic disease, I went into medicine to cure people. I don’t say you can eat cheeseburgers but take your statins so you can’t sue me.” Wow! This is the exact opposite of every doctor I’ve ever met! Amazing!!
This January first , I have been on a whole food plant based diet for 5 years and quite active at 81 years of age. I am very thankful for those who started on it.
Well I hope you're taking your B12
48 years old, and 5 weeks in for me, I mean for me no oil no dairy meat fish, fed up of people saying to me why have you gone vegan, big difference between vegan and full plant based diet, vegan mate of mine still has oil salt and butter spread eats crisps and has sugar in his coffee, and eats junk food
You look great!
Wow, Donald! That’s just amazing!!! Well done :D
@@1971dave make sure you get your omegas in. hemp oil. or avocado oil. :) d3 toooo
A real doctor! I have worked in emergency medicine as a RN and Paramedic for 17 years and have never seen a doc as honest and professional as MD Klaper.
*Dr Greger enters the chat*
Plant-based news promotes propaganda that fish and meat are unhealthy and actively prompts vegan junk food from subway and KFC and McDonald's so what is it is vegan about your health or the animals if it is about health then why do you make videos when a non-vegan restaurant make vegan junk food I but go all on abord when talking about unprocessed food like fish I wonder
Plus
The title should be why vegan doctors like to hate anything that's non-Vegan I can make a whole video about why brown rice is unhealthy because the high level of arsenic cause cancer so therefore brown rice is unhealthy what about the DHA IN Fish is better than ALA in plants and much more bioavailable I think I would rather listen to what longest living healthy Japanese are eating whole food unprocessed diets
just because most vegans are less likely to smoke and drink alcohol and eat less processed food doesn't mean that vegan diets are Heather at all the fact that pesco-vegetarians had the lowest hazard ratio for all-cause mortality in the Adventist Health Study 2 despite pollution? I can see the ecological and other ethical problems with eating seafood, but doesn't epidemiology contradict the claim that a vegan diet is healthier than a pescovegetarian diet? I don't think I know better, it's just that I see some contradiction here.
This study on vegans' use of saying vegan being Heather than meat-eater has clearly shown the opposite true with the fish-eater this doesn't mean vegan diets are unhealthy but not optimal as whole food plants based with some fish since this diet provides all the nutrients from plants and B12 DHA and more biologically available vitamins A and D, therefore, non-vegan diets can be slightly Heather than WFPBD
Not all vegans eat this diet vegans do eat refined carbs also added vegetable oils and mock meats are not correct to say that vegans are automatically Heather because their diet is vegan
Any idea, why pesco-vegetarians had the lowest hazard ratio for all-cause mortality in the Adventist Health Study 2 despite pollution? I can see the ecological and other ethical problems with eating seafood, but doesn't epidemiology contradict the claim that a vegan diet is healthier than a pescovegetarian diet? I don't think I know better, it's just that I see some contradiction here. Thanks for your reply.
The level of mercury in fresh Atlantic salmon is 220 parts per billion mercury so which means
That a 3oz serving is equal to 85 grams of Salmon
220/1000000000 equal
0.00000022 grams of mercury x1000 to milligrams then it's 0.00022 milligrams x1000 to micrograms then it's 0.22 microgram x85 for 3oz serving 18.7 micrograms of mercury
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that 0.1 mcg per kg) of body weight per day is the maximum safe dose of mercury.
So 18.7 mcg from fish
I am weighing about 73kg that's about 161 lb
So
Roundabout 0.10mcg per lb
so my exposure Is within the safe non-risk limit if I eat 85 grams every day which is a lot I eat about 85 grams of salmon 3 times a week so my total consumption a week is about 255grams that's equal to 9oz a week
Now we have to x3 the exposure of mercury that's come at
18.7/161 = 0.116149068322981 x3 = 0.348447204968943
Roundabout 0.35
I have to 7x the safe expound limit of 0.1 x7 = 0.7 mcg per pound per week is safe to limit
I only would get 0.35 which is well within the safe limit so at this level heavy metals like mercury are completely harmless to get a negative effect you need to be exposed serval times the upper safe limit so you are wrong about
fish contains omega 3 and DHA that helps the brain development and lower heart disease anyways if you are still concerned about this explore it safe to eat fish a couple of times a week the benefits of fish completely outweigh the negative so stop spending misinformation
If you still are stubborn about not eating heavy metal you do know that you're exposed to heavy materials at a far higher amount from second-hand smoke brown rice has arsenic that's doesn't mean that brown rice is unhealthy like fish the benefits outweighs the drawbacks of combining fish with prominently plant-based is optimal for health 👍
I am not saying that if you don't eat fish you will be unhealthy or anything you could live as healthy
Without eating animals products as well
I am just trying to inform people that spending misleading information about the health effects of eating meat and fish is toxic does not help promote veganism because veganism has
All to do with animals' ethics and the environment because both of these aspects are harming animals directly or indirectly
While health is a personal choice
nice logic very mon biased video 😂😂

That is amazing!! Only vice I have left is smoking, I have advanced multiple Sclerosis and have not responded to treatment...I threw my cigarettes away, going to try veganism!! Good luck to you

That smile on his face when he talks of helping his patients to get well again. It shows his real dedication as a physician :)
Imagine the satisfaction the profession as a whole would get, by doing the same... I left nursing after 28 years, because I'm not willing to poison people.
Andy Owen it shows that he knows he’s full of shit.
or he is a sick man who likes destroying peoples health. Sad
the claims he makes about carnivores not being healthy after 6 months + are insane. Jordan Peterson has been doing it for 2 years and is thriving! CLEARLY A LIAR!!!! He proves how badly damaged his brain is! SICK SICK MAN
@Tina nutrient deficiency happens much quicker with vegans. I'm not going to waste time with you. Enjoy eating heaps of vegetables that burden your digestive system and make your body toxic. I know for a fact that carnivore is the way to health. This doctor looks like a dead rack of bones. If that's what you want to look like, go vegan.
my mom is an MD and she has been a fan of plant-based medicine for as long as I know her, she once told me that one of her patients was so thankful that he came for the next checkup with a bunch of kale and lettuce he had been growing to show his thankfulness.
What does being a MD have to do with anything? People use these titles as if this means they have more insight within certain topics... MD's is not a profession you want to strongly use as a encouraging statement when it comes to nutrition as most MD's will tell you that they're under trained in nutrition, the standard student only needs 24-48 hours in nutrition to which it's already been discovered decades ago that their training and education is doctored by influenced companies who put out studies based arou d epidemiology and observational reports lol, just by using MD you've discredited your moms opinion. This is kinda what I hate about vegans, they're so quick to through titles. I've spoken to 6 this week who all claimed to be nutritionists and dieticians yet not one of them could tell me the difference without using Google. Veganism and plant based is a species inappropriate diet... Explain to me how it's good route to take? Most become sick at some point for a reason. It's a diet that centers around malnutrition as its the only diet outside of the SAD diet that has nutrients missing ontop of having antinutrients... But don't worry it gets worse. Plant toxins, the body and temperature can rid some of it however these toxins build such as Lectins, Amines, Tannins, Trypsin inhibitors,Fodmaps,
Salicylates, Oxalates, Sulfites, benzo ates, MSG, Non protein amino acids, Glycosides
,Akaloids including solanine and chaconine, Triterpenes,Lignins, Saponins, Phytic acid, Glutan and Isoflaones... Explain to me how veganism is a healthy diet?
Most of nutrition as a whole has been bought and paid for, studies have been tipped in the direction of the influencer (companies like Big Pharma who need to keep you sick in order to sell product). Hell because of nutrition there's still people out there who believe that "Bad cholesterol" is a actual thing lol, and that Red meat and Saturated fat... Which is the most nutrient dense of any food is somehow bad for you lol, our species survived with meat and Saturated fat for centuries yet now its a problem. Go look at Nitrogen 14 and 15 isotopes and the trophic levels within human beings within the last 350,000 years and actually learn something. You mom too as she clearly needs better education, how is your mom a MD and not know about this? Bet she also doesn't know that low cholesterol is actually the problem as it increases all cause mortality compared to high.
You're setting yourself up for failure, no where in the medical literature has veganism ever been proven to be safe beyond ten years, meat on the other hand has been shown by our ancestors. Don't look at epidemiological studies and observational reports as those are typically what vegans go for because you can basically find anything to support your narrative as they remain worse fields of study within the nutrition world. Only look at peer reviewed reports. Hell you're listening to doctors and nutritionists who specialize in only one area... Veganism, do you understand how unintelligible that is? Imagine your doctor only knowing about hang nails and nothing else yet you want to digest this non sense? Is no one smart these days? No one can research the actual science and not what they want the science to show? Lol
@@GCT1990 Pretty much. plant based diets are basically poisonous starvation diets but good luck trying to convince the vegans mate.

He not only looks good for 70"s, he still practices medicine and is very sharp mentally!! How many men in their 70's can u say that about??
Come on! He looks like a 100 yo man
I thought he is 99yo
Don’t mean to be rude, but he looks 80++.. at first I thought he was 86, I was shocked when I realised he was 73. My mum is the same age as him and is a meat eater, she looks so much better than him. His skin has an unhealthy yellow tinge, unless it’s betacarotenemia.
He looks 105.
He looks like walking corpses

Another great interview! Thanks so much, I was smiling through the entire interview.
I do have to say that even on a wfpb diet I still gain weight easily. I became vegetarian 40 years ago (health based). ( 18 yrs old) No processed sugars, limited dairy and eggs, whole grains. Then became gluten and dairy free 20 years ago and egg and oil free 2-3 years ago. So we're talking 40 years of eating with a healthy awareness. I've managed to keep my weight off, I'm active and have always done physical labor but I still have to stop with one serving.
I attribute this to weak adrenals. Was intolerant to dairy and sugar and gluten my entire life without realizing it. Not positive I was gluten intolerant all that time or if it developed from the regular assault from dairy and sugar (honey) all those years but also had a very stressful childhood. Was in a state of fear most of the time from birth. So this stress on my adrenals has no doubt burned them out. So my metabolism is slow, my blood pressure is 110/70 and my body temp is around 96. I get cold easily when not moving.
So yes, there seems to be good reason for me to have to portion control. I just wanted to put this out there that not all wfpb folks can eat until the cows come home.
I was vegan...but I changed to a whole foods plant based living..no oil..no processed foods and no snacks...
I'm loving it!!!!
Edit...no animal products either
Is pasta o.k

I am a simple blue collar worker, for the last 3 years I have been studying how to stay healthy. I have had a open mind and have read books and watched countless you tube videos with each expert justifying their own doctrine with data. Well here is my take on this, just look at the people around you. Who takes multiple drugs, can't walk to the store,and has health problems. Plus does my teeth look like my dog or cat. I don't put meat in my compost pile to feed my garden, oh yes I am really feeding the microbes in the soil. And what are we feeding in our bodies , our gut microbes. Eating a WFPBD makes a lot of sense to me. Just made up my mind to make the change this week.
79366813arizona You made the right choice for your health and for the planet. Share this realization with your friends and family.
Congrats! I've been eating WFPB for over two years now and I still go to the gym and lift, I feel great. From my research, I don't see any better alternative diet right now. I eat whatever I want that isn't processed and it's very easy to do this. I was in steel and welding, concrete work, lifting heavy and sweating outside in 116 degrees summers... And my WFPB diet had me running circles around my colleagues. More energy than ever, strong af, and aesthetically pleasing. Take care of yourself, do 5x5 workout in the gym 3 days a week (approx 45 min workout sessions) and eat healthy, you'll be amazed at how you can transform. Take it slow and try your best to add any exercise possible if you can't in the beginning. Consult your doctor and make sure you get the go ahead, get second or third opinions if you need, and maybe consider a trainer who specializes in your health problems for one or two sessions to make sure you are not risking injury etc.... I hope you thrive and feel great. Eat lots of quinoa + black beans, that is my staple food basically.
Great! Hope you can get friends and family on board. I see you posted this 4 weeks ago. How is it going? Advice: try to stay away from past :)
Way to go! I *also* did the research and whole food plant based has been my diet since 2010 when my brother died of colon cancer. Yo, it's one of the more preventable cancers! I'm 61 now and feel awesome....I work full time and haven't needed a sick day from work in over 14 years...I donate blood pretty much every 65 days and have NEVER been turned away due to low iron or any other reason. I *do* supplement B-12 once a week and have recently added vegan DHA.
Vegan for 20yrs never get ill, just when I thought I couldn't feel better, I cut out flour oil & salt 3yrs,thriving, you have just made the best decision in your life👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 congrats 😄 not sure what your cooking skills are like yet???

Went whole food plant based over a decade ago. Gout, cholesterol, diabetes, overweight all gone. Energy way up. I've never felt better. All my blood tests, year after year, are right where they need to be. I am never going back to eating animals.
Same, decreased my LDL substantially and have more energy with better digestion and less gut issues, not to mention that I feel so much better mentally knowing that I'm not funding animal exploitation and abuse.
Too bad about your erectile dysfunction.
Jason K. eating meat causes erectile dysfunction 😂
@@isobelhedley2082 I was gonna let him know that lol
@@cynicalidealist11:Hmm not funding animal exploitation and abuse, you are eating just plants? But aren't they grown in soil, full of microorganisms and bacteria, are there any herbicides, insecticides, pesticides, fungicides used on the soil and plants? How many insects and wild animals are killed through such a way of agriculture? What about the wastes of these methods, they are released into nature and the water. Eating plants in a modern world kills microorganisms, insects, wild animals and so on. Eating animal products also kills animals, so what is the solution? If one eats animal products from good sources (environmental and agricultural) there is not so much harm, same can be true if one grows own food in the garden, but nevertheless you always effect the environment if you just live you release a footprint in nature whether you like that or not. I don't think that most vegans even realize how much damage is done to the environment by eating even plant based. And by the way plants grow in the soil full of bacteria and earthworms. They release their animal excrements into the soil which are then absorbed by plants. So all of us are consuming animal products wanted or unwanted. Its the symbioses way of life. Have you ever seen the videos where deer and cows are eating very young chickens alive, i was really shocked when i saw that believing that these animal were strict herbivores but they are not. Even elefants, gorillas and rhinos are eating plants and animals so where is the difference? Or do you think that an elefant or rhino picks the plants and clears it of all bacteria and insects before eaten? I don't think so.
I came to realize that veganism is a religion, an ideology or cult over the last years and i should know because i was a vegan for more then seven and a half years. I ate plant based and 98% of the time healthy but it still got worse and worse. I think i kind of developed a preform of insulin resistance i was tired and unconcentrated for 2 to 4 hours almost 5 to 6 days every week. Then i put my vegan agenda aside and tried vegetarian again. My symptomes went away on the first day, my cognitive abilities went through the roof my tiredness is now almost gone (still have it from time to time if i eat to much carbs which i have reduced now significantly to feel better), i am much happier now and feel way healthier then in my last 5 years. I don't think that i will ever go back to the vegan diet, not if that could potentialy kill me in the long term. I will listen to my body and will do what is best for it, even if it is hard to give up my believes. I am not convinced that the vegan lifestyle is the best way or diet for everyone, it didn't worked for me, maybe for others and i wish them the best of luck whether plant based or meat based or both but in the end everyone has to find a diet and lifestyle that works for him.
"A flesh based diet for 8 billion people three times a day? What an arrogant, elitist, outrageous, planet destroying approach to nutrition."
Hit so many nails on the head.. this is such an enlightening interview which I'm certain a lot of people needed to see. I've always had the utmost respect for Dr. Klaper.

This is the kind of story I am curious to hear about… I have recently been trying to switch to Vegan/plant based food for ethical reasons, but I have thyroid issues… I used to be overactive and then they treated me with radioactive iodine so now I’m underactive forever, and apparently that can’t be changed… I want to do The right thing for The planet and my body but I often find I am anxious that maybe I’m going to end up deficient in iron or something else and end up feeling like I have even less energy and more mental health issues and I’ve already had. I work in the health food shop and I feel like I’ve met a lot of people who said they’ve been vegan sometimes up to 10 years and then found themselves feeling very ill and they blame the vegan diet. I guess I don’t know what is in each person specific diet, but my boyfriend who has been vegan for 10 years said I need to look for more stories from people who have been Long-term vegan and healthy at the same time! Anyway need to watch more of the video! Thanks for sharing a bit of your story
Look into Brooke Goldner. She's another MD who accidentally discovered that the vegan diet can do wonders for diseases. The woman cured herself from lupus. Lupus is supposed to be incurable. It sounds insane, like it can't be real, but she's helped to cure or at least put into remission people who have debilitating, chronic illnesses. She has worked with hundreds and hundreds of patients, thyroid patients included. All of her research and information is free. She even teaches free classes. I'm about to start her protocol because I'm a clean eating 25 year old and I have heart disease and an automimmune condition.

Maybe because he is a liar?
Love how this guy is outraged by how modern medicine is so crooked and misinformed. Plant based nutrition is the best possible medicine. Garbage in=garbage out
Plant based & modern medicine are not mutually exclusive. Lots of modern medicine comes from the plant, it is just standardized so that results can be predicted.
if it is the best possible medicine why are so many getting sick on the vegan diet?

@@reyrey6295 I'm great thanks, still vegan, I wish you all the best changing to vegan, if you want any help just give us a message and I will get back to you quickly
i was diagnosed with heart failure, mild atherosclerosis, and diabetes. the pfizer vaccine did a number on me because i wasnt healthy. i blame myself for not being on a plant based diet.
Perfect video as always PBN! Its good to hear that even the doctors had problems with the transistion.
Dr. Klaper is so sweet and compassionate. We need more doctors like him who actually want to help their patients. I couldn't stop smiling the whole time, especially when he was beaming talking about how he happy he is when his patients get better ☺️
Well, I believe most doctors actually DO want to help patients...that's why they go into medicine...the unfair thing is that most are taught NOTHING about nutrition! Not their fault....just gently saying.
OMG you are a naive dumb thing....
@@valnaples true, they want to help us but they aren't nutritionists.
I'm 33 now.
Been Vegan since I was almost 28
I'm 6"2.
I'm a big guy naturally too.
Absolutely loved eating meat before. Reckon I'd still enjoy it now.
I've recently switch from Vegan to a wholefoods plantbased diet. LOVING IT.
You still WFPB? I have done it 5 years. It has kept me healthy. I started at age 48. You got a good, early start at 33, much better than me.
i literally cry. I am a vegan medical student and i always get comments about how my diet isnt healthy. The society must get the education. Thanks for the viedo :)
You should keep studying until you reach the full circle because if you are stuck in plant world you have not truly gained the power of functional food... you are still restricting an entire food group for reasons that are mostly lies
They're correct.
get ready for heavy pushback from the junkfood and meat and dairy industry.
@@ninjashogun Lolno
It's hard to get epa and dha in vegan diet and i think that's why many vegans have thin hair and irritate easily
Dr. Klaper is just a lovely person. He inspires me to keep making vegan food for my family (vegan since September and not looking back!).
He looks 90 while in reality he is 70.
Good luck ...
Sad vegans
Keep going! Im vegan since the end of october ^-^ i was checking vegans for years and got informations about that. I think its good, at least for me and for everyone who wants to be a vegan. I wish my parents would like to eat the food i make too, but they say "food" without meat isnt a real meal.
@@LadyMisakii Your parents are right, one day you'll agree. Believe your parents but not some strangers on youtube or on the street.
I’m starting today😍
@@TTR83 you can believe your parents and i believe whatever i want. And if i would believe some strangers at the internet, i would believe that meat is good for me and being vegan is bad, i think there exist a lot more persons who say that being vegan is bad, because they are scared of having to live a life without their favourite food. They dont want to see whats going on in the world and they want to be blind, because they dont want to see that the world gets destroyed, that animals suffer and a lot of persons die because of sicknesses who are most times caused because of consuming meat and animal products. Im living without meat now since 19 years. I was a pescetarian for 18 years. But the last two years of my pescetarian time i didnt consume much fish anymore, so i thought i could just stop eating fish too. I was eating fish because of the healthy fats, was telling me that i need it. But i dont. And its possible to live without diary products too without having problems with your health, as long as you eat the stuff that contains the vitamines you need. If you just eat pommes with ketchup then you are an unhealthy vegan and you will get sick for sure. Like 10 years ago i was laughing about vegans too. Sure i understand where they came from, but i thought they are too extreme, till i opened my eyes. Now every meat eater is just consuming corpses in my eyes. And to my healthstate, my parents are a lot more sick than i am. Last time i was sick was 2,5 years ago.
You know you've just watched quality content when you've watched 100% of the video.
I love this man , so eloquent, so honest and so right . We need more Doctors who believe the obvious, that food is medicine and plant based is the only way forward 🌱💕
I’ve been eating whole food plant based for ten years now. No more chest pain and no more chronic leg pain. At 68 no pills.
Eating organic healthy vegetables beside clean free range proteins is a totally different story. I have tried a vegetarian diet 5 times in my life and it did not work for me. I became bloated, weak and deficient each time. My constitution does not do well unless I am able to eat some meat. I don't want to eat meat because I don't like killing animals. It really bothers me. But I think different people need different diets. Yet vegetarians resort to shaming meat eaters. I am blood type O; so maybe it is vital for me. I eat consciously and I also eat plenty of vegies and at 65 years old I am not on a single Rx drug.
If you are eating vegetarian you are missing the point. It does not work for you because you are eating animal protein in the eggs you eat and the milk and cheese and butter you eat. If you eat a whole food plant based diet you would see a big difference. I know because I have been eating this way for over 10 years and the difference in my health is nothing short of miraculous.
You might try avoiding wheat and products like pasta that have wheat and eggs in it.
@@sustainablelivingnl773 Close to 100% of pastas sold at supermarkets are vegan already

I noticed that 🧐. I gues the diet is really pays off!!
Hes looks half dead his skin is yellow probably liver damage
Al woo Looks extremely healthy for his age.The clear eyes are a sure fire sign of robust health.Liver problems show up in the eyes..yellowing of the whites..dull eyes.
@@mukeshpallan2664 You must have eye problems are you blind? Why is his skin yellow? Hes looks terrible for his age.
Al woo ..once again..liver damage.ie jaundice shows up in the eyes..his skin color could be .tons of beta carotene .. or a vitamin A rich diet.
Please educate your self before calling people names..it is un called for..learn to respect other people's views ..if you want to be taken seriously.

The reason it took so long to remove cigarettes from hospital was that Doctors smoked themselves
@@m.j.carlson8246 People don't realize that carnism is a belief system. Not only that, it's a dominant belief system held by most of society. Every recommendation a carnist doctor makes is influenced by the very fact that he or she is a carnist. It's a huge source of bias, and because it's so dominant as to be invisible, it's really hard to point out to people. Acknowledging carnism when your whole life is permeated with carnism is like trying to look at your own face without a mirror.
@@jeremiahbaxter6887 So true. Can we make a new plant for vegans only? Then again, all jokes aside, we actually do need a new planet. Why? Carnists destroying the Earth.
Doctors did not smoke cigarettes?
One of the best most direct argument towards whole food plant based diets. love it.
Great interview, Dr Klaper it’s so wise, well formulated and encouraging. And Klaus you asked good questions 😊
Dr Klaper comes across as such a nice bloke, so intelligent and caring, I'd love to meet him and give him a big hug.
Can't wait to watch Game Changers, bring it on 🌱 thanks for the great interview Klaus ✌️
if i wasn’t already vegan, this man would certainly convince me to be! dr. klaper, you are so wonderful, keep up the amazing work! 🖤
I got so much to say about this man.
Hippocrates and Shaolin Monks convinced me 😁
A spiritual path did it for me.
Wow. I'm deeply impressed. I'm in my third week of being a vegan, and I'm loving it. Better performance in sports, more awareness and energy. What a beautiful feeling to have, after almost 2 years of low to very low carb/keto dieting. This is what I have been looking for!
And you are not contributing to the cruelty going on in slaughterhouses either the poor animals die in revolting horrible ways
What a fantastic interview! Dr. Klapper's book on raising vegan children was the first (and only) book of its kind over 25 years ago when my parents made the decision to raise me vegan from birth!
I'll be 70 in January, been plant based for 7 years now. The medical profession are always surprised when I say 'no' to their question 'Are you on any medication?' because at my age they assume I need blood thinners at least. I have never, ever been asked at any stage of my life 'What do you eat?' this seems grossly negligent on the part of the medical profession.
Then tell them what you eat. They need to know so that one day they make the connection and can help others.
@@VickiChristchurchNZ I do, but it never merits any reply or remark.

His explanation as to why people retreat back to animal diets was the most honest and intelligent answer I've heard. Social pressure and meats changing our physiology since infantry. No bs excuses like "nutrient deficiency" or its "too hard."
Much respect to Dr. Klaper. for his knowledge and activism.
> _"Social pressure"_
Especially this. People don't want to become outsiders at work and family parties, and whatnot. But it's still better to eat healthy and have some bad "snacks" every now and then, than to eat foods that are bad for your health every single day.
As he also pointed out in one of these videos, it will be you laying in the hospital bed at the end of the day if your bad food habbits will go too far, not someone else.
@@NamFlow that's what people forget when they are sick where are these know all smart alec people who put pressure on them nowhere to be seen !!!!😟☹️
I have had friends complain of low energy and hair loss on plants only. I’ve experienced hair loss myself. Prob. not enough protein. It’s easy for me to go days on just greens and fruit & forget to eat plants with higher protein. Yes you can get deficient even on the best of plants if you just eat your favorites.
I met him in 2017. Feel so much love for this genuine loving human.
What a wonderful speaker Dr Klaper is. His eyes really sparkle.
The ending brought me to tears. Thanks Dr Klapler for the continuing good work. The actual video talks about so much more than the title suggest.

Raw Intuition really?? Dude doesn’t know his left foot from his right
He is soooo AMAZING!! Thank you for this awesome interview!
Powerful video!! My wife and I are 69 and 70, and we have been plant-based for over 10 years. The ways that our health and lifestyle have improved are too numerous even to wrap my brain around, much less to itemize them all. It's a total life changer and health changer. We never get ill, we still go snow skiing and go to a gym 3 days a week, and we fully intend to live to 100 with no ailments. The WORST part of being plant-based is observing all the people in restaurants and everywhere who are so unhealthy and not plant-based and my being powerless to change them! Nobody wants to hear about changing their diet. They would rather continue down their sickly path, eating badly, taking their meds, going to hospitals, and dying prematurely. It's tragic and very sad to watch!
Dr Klaper is a phenomenal interviewee.
Listening to him talks brings utter delight,
he articulates himself in a very elegant manner.
Awesome content
wow!! this info is life saving for the whole planet!! I LOVE THIS DOCTOR!! thanks a lot for this amazing interview
Did anyone else laugh at the fact that he clapped his hands together and addressed him by his name “Dr Kapper” at the same time? 😂
That's part of the social engineering I talked about above
Now that’s someone who really cares. What an energy and passion and positivity and what not.
Thank you for addressing these issues and please keep doing it.
love klaper and he is giving me hope that people can go 100% plant based and be healthy cognitively
how are you doing mate?
@@HealthRecovery I'm doing pretty good, how about yourself?
W-O-W his explaination about ketosis and carnivore diet fits my understanding perfectly. I totally agree with him. Great interview! ❤
Dr. Klaper was my first vegan diet guru back in the early eighties. He has remained a clear supporting voice in my on-going vegan lifestyle. I owe him a debt that I can only pay by spreading the valuable message he preaches to everyone I can.
One of my very favourite of the plant based doctors!
do you think it'd be productive for people like F r e e l e e to remind Dr. Klaper that he's not vegan but rather "plant based" because he slipped up and ate some fish and animal products at one point on his journey before ultimately making the switch? What's your opinion on other vegans shaming people and publicly humiliating others making a conscious effort?
Dr. Klaper did a study about 10 years ago on vegans who were "failing to thrive." He took their blood tests and tried to find commonalities. The study found they they were deficient in a bunch of nutrients. I wonder why he didn't mention this study. It seems pertinent to the topic at hand, don't you think? I can't post links on this channel for some reason, but google "doctor klaper vegan health study" and it should be the first link.
@@teljordan9236 worked fine for me 😏
The vegans were deficient in: branched chain amino acids (that's right, protein), omega 3 fatty acids, a bunch of minerals, and an endogenous antioxidant called CoQ10. They also had high inflammatory markers because of elevated omega 6 fatty acids.
@@teljordan9236 That's because a vegan diet isn't necessarily healthy. Most vegans consume oils, sugars, processed fake meats, etc... Just like most omnivores have health problems because of eating junk foods, many vegans also have health problems from eating junk foods. The only difference is that people blame the vegan diet when someone has issues on it but nobody blames an omnivore diet when someone gets heart disease or cancer.
This interview was very meaningful to me. I rarely hear any information about creatine. Thank you for putting this together.
I was wondering something similar.
How is that gonna work if is synthetic :))
Sounds like after a period of time your body would catch up so to speak... Wonder if it takes longer for some. I see some people really do experience issues when they as plant eaters start exercising more... (not just first months or so) and feel better when they eat animal foods again. I do not think they are imagining it. Interesting to know the exact causes. Would be nice to have a plant based ”detective doctor” help you in those situations. Of course some will argue that we are omnivores and need some animal foods, period. But that is obviously not true either...
Amazing interview! Massive thanks to Dr. Klaper and PBN for all you do.
Dr. Klaper looks awesome in this interview! And clear and kind thinking, if this is not enough as example I don't know what is!
Thank you for this so needed channel guys.

Vegan almost 4 years now, best choice of my life, my blood tests and everything are better than before. Some people I know also went vegan and haven't changed that as of now \m/
great interview, Klaper is a wonderful human being!...Cant wait for Gamechangers! Start eating plants everyone, our health depends on it :)
NicktritionTV nope
What are you talking about. Humans thrived on animal products for millions of years and there is no known mechanism that explains how meat exactly causes cancer. On the other hand, your vegan diet is new and unproven. No group has ever lived on it for generation after generation. Why? Cause it can't work. Evolution has already proven this to us.
And those populational studies you guys keep showing. Correlation does not imply causation. Look up weston A price. Indigenous groups that lived on mainly animal fats had amazing health.
And environmental? I can live on 1 cow and a few local veggies for a year. The cow converts grass to almost every nutrient i need, can't be more efficient then that. To sustain your diet you have to fly in all kinds of foods from all over the world. Not to mention the soy and grain fields that kill millions of small animals too. Your just a brainwashed fool.
Dr Klaper is an amazing guy. I met him two years ago at the animal rights conference in D.C.

This is a great interview.
I’m not vegan but I do have an open mind and love to hear different opinions on health and nutrition.
Well done xx
Give it a try, if you haven't already. It feels wonderful! ^_^
@Channel Dark Blue Yeah some TH-cam quack...Let's take their advice.
@Channel Dark Blue, any diet can be done wrong, I have seen vegans that gave up that only ate fruit smoothies (very unhealthy). However, a well planned vegan diet is healthy for all stages of life according to the Academy of Dietetics and Nutrition, the largest authority on nutrition in the entire world with over 100,000 credentialed professionals.
Going vegan is good for your health, the planet, human rights, and the animals. It is such an easy thing to do with such profound benefits.
Why aren't you vegan?
Epic video. Thanks for the insightful content, as always.
I love the romantic way he speaks about plant food. He has such an appreciation for the diet and lifestyle and you always here it when he speaks.
sadly thats all it is, romantic but removed from reality
WOW, so powerful! Thank you for interviewing this inspiring physician. This is why we love Dr Klaper!
Drs.Klaper, McDougall, Esselsteyn, Colin Campbell and Neil Barnard are my favorite team for nutrition . The funny thing is they recommend the same lifestyle that my great - grandmother followed out of necessity, and lived in good health to 102 yo. The most difficult concepts to comprehend are the obvious ones...
You would love Dr.Lim look him up! :)
@@christinahagan1427 : there are a lot of others, of course, I just listed the "Masters"... Frankly for me personally it was T.Colin Campbell's book that made me switch to a WFPB lifestyle, together with the realization that everybody in my family in my parents' generation died of cancer.
Take out McDougall and that's my list too.

My dad in Spain was weaned with lentil soup. The real Mediterranean diet is based on legume stews, not tuna salads....This man is inspirational.
20:50 - My Mum suddenly died of cancer this year.
I tried to talk to doctors about encouraging her to at least eat greens every day (She's in her a 70s and a stubborn) and they did very little. One (fat as heck doctor) was like, she can eat ice cream all day. We just can't afford to her to get amaciated.
She never took her healthy seriously because Doctors were always like "Good job Sherly, you're healthy for your age."
And she was overweight for years and sure she's her own person etc, but I blame piece of crap doctors, because she trusted all of them and every single one of them let her down. Never talking to her about the importance of a genuinely healthy diet.
It's hard for doctors to give up what they've trusted, been trained in, and been paid and admired for for years. It's also hard for people to change their lifestyle. Forgive them so you can move on, you did your best x
I'm sorry about your Mum!

I finally found the plant-based whole foods diet. Before that I was the potato chip munching, soda swigging vegan, and sicker than a dog. Had heartburn everyday taking stomach pills multiple times the day, still wound up throwing up acid almost every night, I mean of course what else could I expect? The sad part is after eating whole foods for a while and feeling unbelievably fantastic, I fell off the wagon and went back to eating crap (it was vegan but it was still crap), in short-order I started getting sick sick sick again. Lesson learned! I'm back to eating a whole food plant-based vegan diet back to feeling fabulous, and I'm staying that way!!!
What helps me is to look at the food and ask myself, "is this how it looks in nature?" Donuts don't grow on trees, and potato chips aren't pulled out of the ground. That makes it easy to avoid processed junk. But it's important to always read ingredient labels too.
Am I the only one finding it incredible disturbing that americans have sickness with obvious causes and still take several pills a day even though the pain wont vanish? Here in europe when you have pain you might take a pill to cure an inflammation and you are done. No one kills of the pain with pills instead of curing the underlying condition. Your health system is fucked, innit?
I wish more understood this, I’m so glad you’re better. Eating real food is important, and it being vegan whole food is even more so
@@seitanbeatsyourmeat666 thank you! It's true nothing beats the high of good health 💕🌿🌾🌽🍅🥑🍍🍉🍊
I'm transitioning to a whole foods plant-based diet slowly, because of my lupus. I, too, have GERD, and it's encouraging to know that it will help. I'm not sure I'll ever go full-on vegan, but I've cut back so drastically over the last year on dairy and meat. I'm more of a flexitarian now, but I still eat a lot of crap. I've convinced myself, for instance, that sweet potato chips are "healthy."
The dr.’s teeth are beautiful and healthy. They look like his real teeth. I dedicated my life to helping folks keep their teeth healthy so I noticed. It’s a testament to the plant based diet.
listening a doctor talk about animals its so wontherfull. What he said at the end "I will stand for kids an animals", so grate..GRACIAS
What an amazing guy - this was just brilliant to listen to. The whole world needs to hear what he said.
Dr. Klaper is brilliant. I love how a WFPB HCLF way of eating had helped me with my disordered eating habits such as weighing my food and obsessing over calories.
Omg yes!!!!
Oh my word, that first rant from Dr. Klaper. I think I heard gunshots and explosions going off in the background as he finished. Jesus.... and Klaus literally couldn't contain his joy hahaha

“I did not go into medicine to manage chronic disease, I went into medicine to cure people. I don’t say you can eat cheeseburgers but take your statins so you can’t sue me.” Wow! This is the exact opposite of every doctor I’ve ever met! Amazing!!
Each time I watch this clip it brings tears to my eyes.. This doctor's humanity is so moving..
