Also, I'm not sure it's great for a doctor to be talking about gas and bloating in such terms (disgusting, embarrassing). These issues can have origins other than too much fiber, and no one should feel ashamed or too embarrassed to visit their doctor.

You're right here as I would never tell my patients to be embarrassed to share such symptoms with me. Sharing them with millions of people I became somewhat shy and that's something I could definitely work on. Always important to remember that everything you share with your doctor is kept confidential and will NEVER leave the room unless authorized by you.

ive been vegan for almost four years & i can tell you the only thing that made it easy was doing it SLOWLY. i was vegetarian for about four years before i started transitioning to vegan, and my transition to vegan was slow. my method was - for two weeks i ate vegan one day a week, and then the following two weeks i increased it to two days a week, then the two weeks after that i increased it to three days a week and so on with the goal of being fully vegan by that new years. it's the only new year resolution ive ever stuck with hahaha. but really the point is, just relax and take it slow and take the pressure of yourself 🖤

I happened to do something similar. My goal was not originally to go vegan, however after being pescatarian for a few months I got some pet fish. (My family still laughs about this and tries to tell me it's different to eat salmon than my pets.) After that I couldn't eat fish anymore. I was then vegetarian. I took out dairy for my health because I thought it would help. It didn't do much but after being dairy free for a while I began to hate the taste of regular milk. Then I watched food Inc and cut eggs. I completely agree with your point about relaxing and taking it slow. Not everyone can jump in cold turkey. You still may have to wean yourself off things that you just love. It takes time. It's not a quick fix. It's a long term lifestyle change.

"Go vegan except for [things you don't want to give up]" is essentially what being a reducetarian is. I think it would change the world, truly, if most people just became reducetarian, without all the hangups and policing of being vegan or vegetarian. Of course, that doesn't really call in question animal suffering and traditional farming practices, but if more people were cutting back on those, and demanding clean ethical sources when they do consume them, I think we might see local family-run farms again.

More than 80% of the food produced in my country is from small family-run farms. This is one of the reasons I don't go full vegan and I don't feel the need to (plus, I'm allergic to B12 supplements). But I did reduce a lot of my meat consumption. In my country, it's normal to eat meat twice a day (and a lot) every day. I reduced it to a couple of times a week. I still can't give up on milk and cheese because I really like them, but I haven't eaten red meat for a long while now and I only buy chicken sometimes.

It seems to work, and I enjoy it, so I think I'll keep going :)

Heyo! As someone who's worked with Thrive Market a few times, I know what you mean. It can be less expensive to shop at Sprouts (for example) for certain things. I pay to renew my own membership and use it more as a matter of convenience so I can order pantry staples and some of the weird bulk vegan/health food things (like hemp hearts, as you mentioned, or nutritional yeast) that I'd usually have to pay more for at Whole Foods. Those things can simply be purchased off Amazon, but I like what the brand stands for so I support them. I think anyone who actually enjoys in-person grocery shopping and bargain-hunting might be better suited to take advantage of the free trial and then cancel. Since I'm a food blogger and spend way too much time grocery shopping already 😅 I appreciate being able to order a bunch of staples and have them come to my door every other month or so.

I have deep concerns over "lab grown meat". Is it a viable option to replace natural meat? May be it is but probably not. The environmental impact would probably be significant. Think of it this way they will be pumping massive amounts of chemicals into a genetic stew forcing chemical and physical changes into something meat like. Now honestly what kind of impact do you think that would have on the environment if some of that stuff leaked into a water supply let alone what the chemicals would do to your body. Now I'm not trying to sound like I know everything about the process but this is essentially how they are growing human organ's. Granted they haven't refined the process well enough yet for it to be a viable option for organ transplantation. Isn't science amazing?
This is literally the first time I've heard a vegan say 'well don't give that up then'. It's so refreshing to see somebody have a welcoming, factual, non-gatekeepy perspective. Much more motivating. Thank you!
You are completely correct about Thrive. I had a membership for 6 months. I compared the prices to amazon and meijer and some things were cheaper but a ton wasn't.

I am mostly vegan. The only thing (pretty much) that I eat that isn't vegan is eggs. I get those from a friend who keeps rescue hens, they're really well loved and cared for, and definitely not exploited. These hens have an amazing life and I don't feel at all guilty for eating their eggs. I also discount the "May contain traces of milk" thing on labels. It's essentially a "don't sue us if you have an allergic reaction" label. And if I'm eating out, I'm not going to fuss about eating a vegan burger and some milk being in the bun.

@@strangekat2840 i wouldn't say that. the definition of veganism is to avoid, as far as is *possible and practicable*, the use of animals in any way. therefore it may be impracticable for a person (whose life may depend on a guide or rescue dog) to do without. eating eggs certainly does not hold the same weight in that regard, especially when you consider the fact that you don't need eggs to live (and could easily get the same nutrients from other plant sources)
I have found a way to make legumes so it doesn't give you gas. 1.- I always use dry (raw) legumes, so they need to be in a container with water for about 12 hours before you cook them. 2.- Put the legumes in a pressure cooker with some water, but not all the water that you would normally use. 3.- Heat the water and the legumes without covering the pressure cooker with its lid. 4.- Bring the legumes to a boil and let them boil for a few minutes (15 minutes is fine). 5.- Add cold water, enough to stop the boiling. 6.- Let them boil again and close the pressure cooker. Approximately 40 minutes later you'll have perfect, soft legumes that won't make you gassy. :)

I keep seeing Thrive everywhere and honestly I feel like vitacost is a much better deal and it doesn't require a membership. Plus they have huge sales on food all the damn time. Right now Manitoba's hemp hearts on vitacost are on sale at 10.03 for a 1lb bag. And earlier in the month they had a 20% off code for a $50 food purchase (which is easy as heck to reach considering all the tasties they sell). Also-also, if you fill up your cart and wait, usually they'll email you a 10% off code to get you to place the order lol. lmao I know I kinda sound like a shill but I've been using vitacost for years as my 'one stop hippie shop' and I never hear anyone talk about them.

I will say in defense for Mike since we were both in the MIT program together: MIT SUCKED at providing good, hearty vegan options for us. And this is coming from someone who is vegan, and not a "for 30 days one" like Mike did. All they gave was fruit, a cereal option, and almond milk. That was IT for breakfast. And then it was the same with lunch- salad bar, salad bar, salad bar with just... veg. And our dinner options were practically zilch except for one day when we actually were given a decent taco bar, a BBQ, and we were on our own on Monday. But other than that, that one MIT week would've been hell for trying a 30 day vegan diet, ha. It was pretty unfortunate awful timing there.

I’m vegan, and beans and nightshades don’t go well with me. It’s that super sharp and painful gas. Chickpeas are ok, but bell peppers, eggplant, lots of mushroom and beans aren’t good. And don’t try to tell me I’m not used to fiber, because I can eat raw kale salads and tons of raw broccoli and raw cauliflower in one day with zero problems. Don’t “give up” things, just replace them or find something that gives you the same satisfaction or gratitude or whatever it might be. My friend told me she can’t be vegan because she can’t give up yogurt, and I told her “just... eat plant based yogurt” and she’s like “oh. Right. I never thought of that”. I showed her that plant based yogurts taste the same 😅😂. And ya what u said is true, even if you leave in one or two products, it’s better than the all or nothing approach. We love all people who are aware snd open minded to the vegan diet based on ethical, environmental, health, and other reasons and we love them for trying something. Just something.

I like your idea of decreasing animal products while still having things you can’t imagine living without!
I honestly think is the first time I have heard a vegan say, 'It is okay to not be 100% perfect. If you are vegan except for bacon, that is still a big step.' There was a TED talk that was suggesting we make a big push for people to be flexitarian and remove animal products from their diet for at least one day of the week. The idea was that you could convert far more people, introduce them to lower meat/animal consumption, and make a huge environmental impact. I watched it and thought 'This seems like a great idea. I bet a lot of people wouldn't complain about doing it once a week or so. The environmental impact would be huge.' I was really pumped about it. And then I read the comments. It was dozens upon dozens of 100+ upvoted comments calling the speaker a murder, saying anyone who didn't go fully vegan was a monster, and blasting the idea of any sort of compromise/adjustment/strategic move. It completely ruined it for me and painted vegans in a horrendous light. It still bums me out a bit thinking about it.

Would you be willing to do a video outlining the different degrees of harm caused by different industries? For example, it is my understanding is that the poultry industry does more harm than the beef industry, so if I were to reduce one source of animal harm from my lifestyle, I would think that cutting out poultry would cause less harm than cutting out beef. I am a newb to learning about all of this so I would love some direction where to research about what I can do to make the most difference.

I would recommend reading "project drawdown", the most comprehensive guide to reversing global warming, put together by a diverse group of cientistas and researchers. From the website: "According to Project Drawdown, if all of the world’s cattle formed their own nation, they would be the planet’s third-largest emitter of greenhouse gases, so eating less meat - especially beef - is good for the planet. But throwing away less of what we eat is an even more impactful way to reduce carbon emissions. A third of all food that we raise or grow never makes it onto our plates, and that waste accounts for around 8% of global emissions, according to Drawdown’s analysis. But, since there is food wasted all along the supply chain, eating less meat is probably the most effective way individuals can fight climate change"

Okay I just subscribed. I watched Dr Mike's vegan video and saw this in the recommended. I like your perspective on not having to be all or nothing. My conversion to vegan was a lot easier than most people as I've been veggie off and on for almost 2/3 of my life so I was familiar with a number of things. But there was still a bit of a learning curve and I'm still learning something almost everyday. If it was like that for me I can't imagine what it's like for someone who knows nothing about veganism. I'm certainly gonna check out more of your videos but from what I just saw I'd like to say keep on doing what you're doing. We need more voices like yours.
You should do thrive for the free trial month just to see or compare it to iherb. So many people promote it as so affordable and It doesn't seem it really is. Iherb doesnt require a membership and I see many videos sponsored by them as well.
An updated understanding of willpower from a psych student- willpower is more static in the short term (except in circumstances of stress) and more plastic in the long term. It’s not simple enough to say willpower is a limited resource, but it is also inaccurate to say it isn’t. Having too much to deal with on an executive function level can greatly influence our ability to handle other things. A great example of this is scarcity in the poor population.
Why is this guy shouting at us? So much pressure in this voice...
I was about to say, DON’T YOU COME FOR DOCTOR MIKE, but glad to see you’re supportive :-) In other news...I don’t know how I’ve missed you saying before. But you actually blew my mind when you mentioned going vegan except for very specific foods - I keep coming back to eating buffalo mozzarella cheese balls as a snack, and how I’d go cheese-less if I JUST found a substitute. Now I’m not going to, I’m just going to eat those and enjoy them while cutting other cheese out of my diet - I’ve basically done it with all other dairy already. Thank you for blowing my mind!
Been vegan almost 10 years and I still miss fish. God bless gardein fish fillets.
We eat plant based 5-6 dinners a week and I try and eat plant based all day until dinner, even then I try to keep it as little as possible. I know that I’m trying to make a difference. Thanks for being so awesome! Love your content!
I live in Iowa and most farmers I know really dislike the big farms. they can tell the difference between animals who have been raised with stress and those that have been raised by responsible farmers. I work at a butcher shop and u can tell the difference in the meat quality
The way you communicate veganism was super helpful to me. Over a few months I got rid of every animal product (was already vegetarian for a while) except cheese. Because damn, i love cheese. Stopping cheese took a bit longer, but when I did it actually wasn't hard at all. It is incredible how some people can do it overnight, but for me that wasn't an option, since I struggled with eating disorders in the past. Eliminating so many things I actually enjoy eating at once wouldn't have been sustainable or (mentally) healthy for me. I wish it was a more common way to communicate veganism, and I am so happy I found your videos.
I've been a flexitarian for years now and slowly growing more and more towards veganism, but like you said cravings make it harder to make the change permanently but maintaining a healthy vegan diet without wheat (which I'm allergic to) makes it a lot more difficult to eat out and to eat yummy things, so I love to hear people like you say that any changes are awesome!
I say I'm plant based. I've been a vegetarian for half my life and I almost exclusively only eat animal products from my neighbors (with genuine cage free chickens who come back every night of their own free will). I eat non vegan meals maybe 3-4 times per week. I know a lot of people say plant based is the same as vegan but it's so difficult to try to explain ti everyone that no I'm not vegan but i eat like it a lot. And I hate when KZreadrs say things like "I don't know why you're here if you're not vegan". Maybe because I still want your recipe? It makes me feel excluded.
Love the message of slowly but surely going vegan! I've been able to successfully swap sausages, most chicken, and pretty much all red meat right now. Eggs, cheese, and milk are still not quite where I need them to be, but we'll get there
For me living in Greece it goes like this: In winter I usually eat quite a few animal products and meat along with cooked vegetables, but very little fruit. Come spring and summer though, I eat a looooot of strawberries, and a meal that I crave for almost every single day is a huge greek salad (feta included). So in the warm months I could go vegetarian I guess, because I eat very little meat, processed or not. Recently I "discovered" oats and I think they are making me feel quite good so that will be interesting. I also never have bloating or gas issues with broccoli and chickpeas thankfully, which I eat a lot.
The nose bleed pressure thing really works. I use it on myself and my kids. It works great. We have our own chickens and they're free ranged. Eggs are covered for us. We plan in the future to only use animal products that we produce.
Wait, my dad recommended almond milk over other non-dairy milk, and he's not even truly vegetarian. I like almond milk. So I'm a little confused. I have the opposite problem: constipation. So I need more fiber anyways. I take a chocolate laxative from Kroger: for like almost $2

I somehow got a free thrive market membership and I do exactly what you said - save on the few items that are significantly cheaper (probiotics, protein powder) and just load up on the snacks/processed foods that I wouldn't typically spend money on because they're "on sale" and they're getting delivered to me...but it is a great service for someone without a car and always has to shop on bike/foot (and they give back to families in need)
I've compared prices of items I regularly buy from thrive market vs Amazon (because a lot of it is hard to find near me) and thrive markets prices are 9:10 so much better. And it's not at all "mostly junk food", there are all kinds of food items, you can search by allergens, diets, packaging types, ethical options, etc. They also do your choice for free item with purchases over $49 (you then get free shipping as well) and there are items that randomly have a rebait on top of discounts. There are also housewares/ cosmetics/ non food items.
I have trouble eating enough on a vegan diet as well. Having allergies for nuts, seeds (I can have chia, flax, sunflower) and soy doesn't help at all. I get super full on fiber filled meals and legumes are the worst if you're full fast and have a slow digestion. (Oh and no avocado's either, most fruits are a problem as well :/ ) How in the world do I eat enough energy and protein, when I need to get it almost all through legumes and grains, without wanting to barf my meals up again?
The thing that bothered me about Dr. Mike’s video is he didn’t even try to buy things similar to his normal diet. He was turned off and sure it would fail before he even started. He came at it with a very negative attitude and it showed through the whole thing. I appreciate that he gave his honest thoughts and opinions but why even do a “challenge” if you don’t want to be excited for it?
this thing of being able to start reducing the consumtion of animal products only after you realize or someone tells you "but its okay if you cant do it right away" or "its okay if you have exceptions, or start slow, anything helps", really reminds me of how i was only able to start trying to eat healthier and maybe even work out sometimes after i got more comfortable with my own overweight body. because then, when i wasn't ashamed of my body anymore, i suddenly also didnt have to be ashamed of trying to eat better (and less animal products) ,even if i was sometimes maybe failing at that. its SUCH a freeing feeling. and it frustrates me to NO end when people think that shaming people into anything will ever work. it wont. to change something about yourself and your behaviour, you first have to be comfortable with what youre doing in the moment, and to forgive yourself if it doesn't always go the way it "should", and that gives you the confidence to at least TRY. this was such a monumental realization for me, and i wish we could just...stop shaming people. for their bodies, for their health, for their diet....it takes strength to distance yourself from whats comfortable, and you wont have that strength when you feel ashamed.
Simple biggest solution to the flatulence, is more water. The more food volume, the more water. As simple as that.
Thanks for pointing out the very real difficulties of having IBS and being vegan. It is a real challenge. I would like to add though that you mention that mock meats are good protein alternatives for those that struggle with the oligosaccharides in beans, but nearly all mock meats on the market contain onions and garlic which are also large oligos triggers for people with IBS so they are oftentimes not an option either.

I have a Thrive membership. My membership was free since I'm a student. I'm not fully vegan, but your channel has made me put in serious effort. I'm sort of 50/50 on Thrive. Cons: -The snacks are amazing and I'm addicted to the Biena Habanero Chickpeas. -I dislike that they save your card information pretty much indefinitely. -They had freebies for spending $25 and that seems to have gone away. So much more budget friendly than the 49+ and 59+. -Some items have minimum order requirements, like 2+. -Free shipping is at $49. -There have been a lot of negative reviews of people not getting what they order or getting damaged goods. I've personally never had it happen. Pros: -The snacks are amazing and I'm addicted to the Biena Habanero Chickpeas. -I mainly use it to get ingredients that I can't always find locally like nutritional yeast and vital wheat gluten. I don't live in a big vegan friendly city. -The categories by diet takes out the guesswork for someone who's new to eating vegan foods and not a master of nutritional labels yet. -You get to pick freebies for spending $49+ and $59+. -My membership was free since I'm a student. It really helps. -It's nice to have everything ship in one box packed with paper from one place instead of ordering from different Amazon sellers or all over the Internet packed in plastic.
I am all for a new "reducitarian" movement. I hated the rigid mindset of yt vegans like that vegan couple or freelee that there is nothing like a 90% vegan - if you are consuming 1 milk chocolate bar per month, you are not a vegan. This form of policing can only be damaging to any movement. There needs to be empathy and understanding. And for gods sake, veganism or any environment friendly behaviour shouldnt be a competition. Every change for the better is valid and necessary! Every mindful action and choice has a positive impact. The likelihood of those to rise is much higher, when we allow and validate small or partial improvements. I dont see myself and my family being fully vegan or zero waste or minimalist. But we are aware of our choices and opt often for vegetarian/vegan meals, we try to choose products with less packaging or recycability. We actively dont want to buy unnecessary things for the house or ourself. There is a middle way and we all would benefit so much from it, if we would celebrate anyones small contribution instead of judging it! Great video once again!
I found that when I had a membership to thrive I spent more money every month. I felt like I needed to buy from them to justify the membership and I spent more to get the free shipping🙄
Vitacost has about the same price on things without the membership fee.
Hi Swayze, I've been vegan for 1 1/2 years, but I still don't know if I want to consume honey or not. I can't find a lot of information about it, but just in case honey production is bad for bees, I've been avoiding it. What do you know about this topic and what is your stand on this?
I've found your channel recently and watched a fair number of your back catalogue of videos. As an omnivore looking to increase my plant based intake I'd like to praise you. You do an amazing job of correcting misleading vegan information , (be it positive or negative towards veganism) give suggestions to help people go vegan without over pushing it and are incredibly supportive of people improving their plant based percentage of diet but not wanting to go full vegan. Your "not all or nothing" approach makes it easier for people to improve their diet and I think the community could do with a load more people like yourself.

Nosebleed tip! What the doctor suggests will work, but it takes forever. What you do, and this works like a frickin' charm, is you get a piece of paper towel (or if you'd like to reuse a washcloth). Cut the fabric into about 1 1/2 inch strips wide. And then cut them by length (or for a paper towel in the heat of the moment, tear it). For a paper towel, the length will probably be about 2-3 inches and for a washcloth about 1 1/2 or 2 inches. Wet the strip. Roll it up. And put it under your top lip. This will apply pressure to vessels supplying blood flow to your nose (or so I've heard) and stops your nose bleed in less than a few minutes. This trick normally stops mine between 1-3 minutes depending on the severity. I have gotten nosebleeds for over 20 years anytime the weather changes thanks to a broken nose. And this is seriously the best nosebleed tip I've used.

I’ve always assumed that if you have access to a Costco it would be much better spent money on a membership there than thrive (I believe the lowest level is about the same divided up over the year). They have plenty of vegan/organic treats/junk as well as some of the best deals on produce and bulk foods like beans/rice/pasta/plant milks/nuts/seeds/oils/spices. Also added bonus is if you need to buy practically anything from garden plants to household appliances to jewelry they have great deals. They also do a lot of quality control because they often only carry one brand or a select few and they have great return policies so I usually take comfort in that, especially if I’m buying an expensive appliance. TLDR I really only think thrive would be a good option if you lived in a rural area with few choices or had little access to transportation.
Veganism isn’t the only healthy diet, but it’s the only ethical one and only one where we make the biggest impact environmentally reducing our footprint.
