I know! That's why I stop watching his videos for a few months so that I can binge it all without the frustration of the cheezy attempts at building suspense. 🤣
@@vascoamaralgrilo I know that whatever the question, the answer is *always* "eat a whole-food, plant-based diet, and take vitaimin b12"! So that's what I do! (Plus I try to reduce sugar, salt & added oil & fats...)
apparently he doesn't have the answers, stop eating foods which are too high in oxalic acid (spinach, almonds, beets, okra, swiss chard) and also cut down on fruits, no more than 1 serving a day, because fructose converts to endogenous oxalates. Oxalates mess up calcium metabolism causing excessive bleeding.
This is oxalates to blame, not only from the vegan food such as spinach, almonds, beets, but fructose (from fruits) and too much vit C are causing formation of endogenous oxalates, those in turn waste calcium causing some coagulopathy predisposing to increased bleeding. Vitamin D is another factor affecting calcium metabolism, it says - people who had strokes during the follow-up years were more likely to have a severe vitamin D deficiency.
On an anecdotal level (my personal experience) I feel like I increased my salt intake when I switched to 95% vegan diet. It wasn't by design, but more of my recipes require more salt now. I am concerned about the increased salt intake, but I've always taken the attitude that overall salt is not as bad as meat AND overtime I might be able to decrease the salt intake as my tastes changed. Its been about 5 years and I still eat a significantly higher than recommended amount of salt.
gridcaster , I hope you manage to eat more potassium in your food choices/supplements to offset that salt! I've been craving salt too, now that I'm becoming vegan. The sodium - potassium pump is a fascinating subject in regards to the heart and cramping!
Vegans are NOT the same as whole food plant based eaters! Though they both avoid animal product... soda, oreos, fries, and all the highly processed "specialty" junk foods are vegan... but not health promoting, so to me "vegan" studies are meaningless when it comes to health outcomes.
Dear Dr. Greger. Do you have any data / feedback on Vit D lamps instead of supplements? There seems to be only one company providing such a lamp approved by the FDA. Your opinion is highly appreciated.
So, in conclusion......... In my general opinion, and I’m not a doctor, but I’m thinking because vegetarians still eat EGGS which are one of the highest Foods in cholesterol. Some Vegetarians also eat fish and cheese.Well, despite still have cholesterol that is adding to the arteries. And sometimes the damage is already been done to our arteries. So even when switching to a vegetarian and vegan diet it’s a good day but, if you have significant damage already done here, diaries, that’s a serious matter. Medication probably help. But I’ll Wait for the next cliffhanger, LOL
I went plant based five years ago because both my parents had a stroke and yet I have not changed my chances of getting a stroke? you know I am really beginning to think I mislead myself with this diet change, I just wanted to believe it. I didn't want to go out the way they did, it was horrible. Funny how I never saw that chart showing vegans have the same stroke risk as meat eaters. In my case that is a lot of books that left that out.
It depends, if you have bleeding issue, if you see tiny red dots on your skin - cherry angiomas - then yes your diet possibly puts you closer to getting hemorrhagic type stroke - in this case cut out fruits (fructose) from your diet and include some meat every day. Fructose and too much vit C are causing formation of endogenous oxalates, those in turn waste calcium, even if your blood level calcium seems normal your cells might be deficient causing some coagulopathy predisposing to increased bleeding.
Look at the numbers, the vegetarians had a lower rate. The higher rate is only there after adjusting for multiple things. The right conclusion of this study should be: "Vegetarians had a lower stroke rate, but only because of non-dietary factors. Another study is needed to compare the effects of a vegetarian diet to the stoke risk"
@@happygimp0 I am really focused on what Dr G said about vegans, he said , " statistically have significantly higher risk of any kind of stroke". Which is odd because his book how not to die does not mention this. And his entire program is plant based , not vegetarian. So I guess a vegan diet will lower your chance of having a heart attack but raise your chance of having a stroke.
Herb Bowler well since both of my parents have genetically induced high cholesterol and my mom lacks lipase, recommending fat of any sort in diet could be a death sentence for some people. My father had a severe heart attack at 42. Not interested in repeating the mistakes, if you can handle fat then good for you
@@marlajacques6947 TAKE LIPASE ENZYMES. WE NEED. FATS TO METABOLIZE FAT SOLUBLE NUTRIENTS. AND TO RID OUR BODY OF FAT SOLUBLE WASTE. WITHOUT FATS WE ARE UNDER NOURISHED AND TOXIC.! !
It would be interesting if being less likely to die of heart disease means that vegans are likely to live longer (other things being equal) than non-vegans, and living longer means being more likely to have a stroke at a later age. In other words, maybe non-vegans don't have strokes because they already died of heart disease, whereas vegans live longer and therefore live long enough to eventually have a stroke...
@@Magani79 me too! Dr Greger's videos are the scenic route to the destination, with frequent stops to think about what what we've just heard. We learn as much on the journey, as we do at the destination.
Did I miss something? I thought at the end of the last Vit D video he ended with the question about how much to take and said he'd answer that in the next one. So the answer is don't bother?
The answer is that no amount of vitamin D is essential to avoid stroke. Bc it doesn't seem to be a factor in stroke pathology. That's different from "don't bother", bc vitamin D is important for other bodily functions. Just not stroke. 😊🌱
That _is_ what happens. The hardened arteries from hardened plaque build up adds more resistance to vascular hemorrhaging, but on the flip side that makes it harder for the arteries to dilate when there's a blockage. Vegans have cleaner arteries so we are more vulnerable to vascular tearing and hemorrhaging though we dont have the prerequisites necessary for that to happen.
@@mrh6407 Wrong, arteries are normal, healthiest without high amounts of cholesterol. You don't even need to eat cholesterol to raise your cholesterol. Long chain saturated fats from oils and coconut products do a better job of raising cholesterol so its a feeble attempt to try and insert that we need something from decaying flesh, You just saw what happens when you add more cholesterol and saturated fat in the video! Strokes occurred more often as you ate more animal fat.
Added salt is the problem, it's too high in health food products. And if a sick person becomes vegetarian after they're sick with something, moving or changing to vegan or vegetarian foods, the health food companies have high added salt food like the other companies this doesn't help them improve. Making all their own food without added salt will help more if they switch.
I was thinking about low Taurin Level. I saw that it is associated with stroke risk. Still for me, would prefere to take a taurin supplement then eating meat, and risking a heart attack. Would be interesting to test that.
It's not anything that you can only get from animal products. Dr Greger is good at cherry picking studies, he is not gonna put veganism into bad light.
It's not omega 3. You get all the fats you need from eating potatoes only ans look how tiny amount they have fat so it can't be because of lack of fat.
Why would you presume that someone diagnosed with heart disease would become vegetarian and continue eating the dairy and eggs that helped cause it? Dr. Greger seems recently to be very confused about things that he himself has provided clarity on. These recent videos seem only to serve those wishing to confuse. Suspicious.
I think.....Vegans/Vegetarians tend to eat saltier foods believe it or not.....so this lends them to having same stroke risk as Omnivores......since, Omnivores love their salt as well....

Who says eating a vegetarian or vegan diet offers any advantages in terms of stroke in the 1st place that you're looking for reasons why the results are not there? Maybe they're all the same because the vegetarian/vegan diet does nothing to reduce your stroke risk.
@@albertneville8918 He said "What's so increasing their stroke risk that it's offsetting their natural advantages" ... I'm saying, maybe they don't have these "natural advantages" and their stroke risk is just the same.
@ No. It says there's a 3 out of 1000 greater chance of getting a stroke if you're vegetarian/vegan ... ie- a 0.3% chance. I'd call that negligible, which goes back to what I was saying "maybe they don't have these "natural advantages" and their stroke risk is just the same." Let's be honest, the 27s mark says a vegetarian/vegan diet reduced risk of heart attack by around 1% ... I'd call that pretty negligible too. It certainly doesn't fit into the vegan mantra that going plant based reverses heart disease and makes you almost heart-attack proof.
@@vespeneprotoss4346 Dr Greger is working around what vegans,/vegetarians can do/eat/take to close the one hole in their diet that puts them at higher risk of stroke than everyone else. How to perfect the diet, if you will. 🌱
I thought we all agreed the good Dr. doesn't need to be featured in the video, and just graphs and charts are more effective for the audience to take in the info.
@DaRKsOUL I can't just give up my Magnesium, I went to see the doctor of my knee he gave me painkillers it doesn't help. That's why I used Magnesium for many years i feel great i can running again 3x times a week 15 km.
If you're not eating flaxseed or chia, you might consider a DHA/ EPA supplement? Also try Cronometer for a few days, input your foods to see how much magnesium you have in your diet without supplement. Mine is way over the RDA, just by eating whole food plant based. You don't want to overwork your kidneys any more than you have to. Particularly as older adults. 🌱
did u know vegans also live only as long as meat eaters.. 65 approx is vegans life span same as meat eaters. but they dont bring that up very often do they.
After doing alot of health research myself including longevity research. Reading alot about the blue zones lately. I came to the conclusion the pescatarian diet is best for me. Just need to be careful with the heavy metals. But sardines are pretty safe and straight up cheap superfood. I also like pickled and RAW(Dutch) herrings and ofcourse quality salmon. Dont fool yourself saying a b12 pill is the same thing.
You have to consider bioaccumulation. Sardines are safe'er, but not safe. They are lower in the food chain so they have fewer toxins. However, the more you eat, the more chance of tissue accumulating those very same pollutants you wish to avoid.
id assume its >20g omega 6 intake which in itself is inflammatory like satfat, but has the added malefit (is that a word?) of reking one's omega 3:6 - and since omega 3 is especially bad on most veygan diets its not just doublely but actually tripplely bad

It's not omega 3. You get all the fats you need from eating potatoes only ans look how tiny amount they have fat so it can't be because of lack of fat.
Dr. Greger this new style of video is very bad. You are repeatedly not making a clear distinction between a vegetarian and vegan diet. You seem to be acting confused about vegetarians being unhealthy. Stop.
The artery clogging is from the tears caused by the excessive pumping pressure and the hardening of the arteries in and around the heart. The arteries in other parts of the body do not have this problem. This is the result of a low mineral diet, excessive carbs, stressful lifestyles, and lack of sun exposure (UVA and NO deficiency). Meat is not the problem.
It's the vegetable oils combined with high carb, my dear vegans. Do yourself a favor and quit the vegetable oils. Use better plant oils that weren't chemically extracted from seeds, then bleached and then deodorized to make them edible.
I hope I won't get that stroke before the end of these cliffhangers

Seemed a bit like just a time-filler.
Spoiler: it's B12 and omega-3 to omega-6 ratio unless there is more science out in the last few years.
Edit: clarified omega-3
It's not omega 3. You get all the fats you need from eating potatoes only ans look how tiny amount they have fat so it can't be because of lack of fat.
@@probean513 Ok right, it's more omega6 to omega3 ratio
SALT 🧂! 💯!
Dr. Greger this new style of video is very bad. You are repeatedly not making a clear distinction between a vegetarian and vegan diet. You seem to be acting confused about vegetarians being unhealthy. Stop.
The artery clogging is from the tears caused by the excessive pumping pressure and the hardening of the arteries in and around the heart. The arteries in other parts of the body do not have this problem. This is the result of a low mineral diet, excessive carbs, stressful lifestyles, and lack of sun exposure (UVA and NO deficiency). Meat is not the problem.
B12 deficiency -> raised homocysteine -> strokes
It's the vegetable oils combined with high carb, my dear vegans.
Do yourself a favor and quit the vegetable oils. Use better plant oils that weren't chemically extracted from seeds, then bleached and then deodorized to make them edible.
and u could say the ex-vegans r under the healthy quitter effect then i guess 🤔
Until they die of a heart attack
I'm realising lately how irritating this man is.
