I started listening to Dr. McDougall 11 years ago and changed my whole diet 10 years ago. That was absolutely the smartest move I ever made in my life. 100 pounds, pre-diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and more all disappeared and stayed gone. So here I am almost 70, on no medications, and I enjoy going to the gym most days. I caught Covid19 almost a year ago today. That was 6 weeks before people in my age group could get the jab. I got pretty sick for sure, but I did not need to go to the hospital. I did have a case of long Covid for 2 or 3 months, but I have been fully recovered for months now. I fully credit following John McDougall's food advice for fixing all the aforementioned things and literally my very survival. I could not possibly be more thankful!

Dr. McDougall has relentlessly worked towards getting people healthy throughout his career. His message is clear, concise, and consistent: starch is the solution to our health and climate crises, and an important means to end animal exploitation. He often talks about east Asian cultures and rice, but it's also great to know the importance of starch in Indian civilizations. In northern India, wheat is such a crucial part of our diet that the way to ask someone if they finished their meal is "roti kha li?" which means "did you eat roti (wholewheat flatbread)"? In the south, rice is the main part of every meal. Traditionally, we only feel like we have truly eaten when we have had our starch. Unfortunately people have over time incorporated far too many rich foods and westernized their diet, leading to a growing health crisis, which, ironically and sadly, some people blame on carbohydrate consumption.

You mean methane (CH4) emissions, not CO2, and this methane is part of a natural 10 year cycle as it's broken down in the upper atmosphere so it does no long term damage (tune ke CO2). The extraction and burning of fossil fuels from the transportation and energy industries represents around 70+% of total worldwide emissions and is NOT part of any natural cycle, it's NEW carbon pollution and is the major polluting industries. MacDougall is completely wrong, sorry to burst your bubble In addition, the inorganic NPK fertiliser used on all commercial plant crops worldwide results in Nitrogen emissions that are NEVER mentioned. What a shame because NO2, and other Nitrous gases formed from these fertilisers are HIGHLY toxic to the atmosphere, up to 250 times more so than CO2 The story is complex, don't just believe everything that's reported to you, even by myself.

I don't think so but protein is in starch. Potatoes rice corn has protein. You don't need much protein unless you're an athlete or bodybuilding. You can get it in soy protein beans and many other vegan sources.

I saw your talk with Chef AJ the other time, very nice. Just a thought... Perhaps you'll tap into quite a different target group (and convince more people to adopt a plant based life style/increase the number of subscribers of your YT channel) if you'd (also) focus on the beneficial health aspects of a vegan lifestyle. More "plant based" and less "vegan", if you understand what I mean (I got a reprimand recently of someone who had a problem with me using the word "vegan" because I was "only" talking about food and about the health benefits of a vegan/plant based way of eating). I appreciate the activism of this channel, but the argument "I went plant based and I got healthy again" perhaps does not get the attention it deserves on this channel. I'd encourage you to invite people like Dr. McDougall, Dr. Barnard, Dr. Greger, Dr. B, Will Bulsiewicz and Chef AJ of course. EDIT: Apologies... I now see you did talk to the Drs.. Years ago.

@@annaal7480 You must have written this in a hurry.... Dr. McDougall is a guest in this episode, so not the one addressed. The suggestion is made to the people behind this channel. The Doctors referred to are not just "whoever appeals to you", they are physicians with a solid professional reputation, who base their "vegan message" on science, contrary to many "whoever appeals to you". Just the fact that Dr. Neal Barnard and his team fought legal battles, that is years ago, to have plant based proteins included in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (the basis for all food programs in the US, such as in schools) makes him one of the heavy motors behind the vegan movement. And despite his great achievements, he still seems down to earth, anwering questions every single week on a KZread channel, the same health questions, over and over again, of people having switched over or considering switching over to a vegan lifestyle. You may not be aware that "whoever appeals to you" often relies on the science brought forward by exactly these physicians. That's why they merit recurring attention. And.. off topic.... if you lived in the USA you should know that American culture kind of dictates women to wear heavy makeup and use tons of creams. It's must be very difficult to shake that ingrained habit to paint your face off. But that's another movement 🙂

I lectured my farmer uncle nearly 30yr ago when I was 13 😂about how farming is bad for environment. And he replied, that's just the way it is (the way it was). Now he's seeing I'm right!

Farmers is not bad for the environment is the chemicals and the toxic that are doing to this world don’t blame the farming . The world needs to wake up.

I experimented with a plant based diet and I never felt full. Eating a whole plate of fried rice with tons of vegatables didn't make me full. Vegatables also make me bloated; my digestion was screwed up. Going on a meat-based diet has helped that and I'm actually shedding a few pounds. And it's all about quality meat/eggs/fish, not conventional.

Well, obviously I did more than just rice and vegetables, by that should say something about how not filling carbs really are. Also tried a vegan meal delivery service and was still always hungry and never full. The satiety level just wasn't there for me.

@@alexandraelfers7900 yeah you defenitely have to eat more when you become vegan (which is great) and you just have to experiment and find foods that you like. Quality meat is pretty irrelevant to the animal though because they still get their throat cut in the end so why kill animals when we don't have to? Better for your health, much better for the environment and no unnecessary suffering for the animals

He might be right but for a start it has to be organic and non GMO. And it also doesn’t help the fact that theirs lots of gluten allergy and coeliacs that can’t touch 🌾

Celiacs disease is pretty rare though, about 1 % of the population, and gluten sensitivity another couple of percent. The population as a whole can eat gluten without problems. The fear of gluten is blown out of proportion. Society need to focus on cutting out animal foods and processed sugars first and foremost.

If you're going to eat breads, pastas, whatever made from wheat, especially in the US, get it fresher baked. Most of the store bought bread is junk full of junk and sprayed with junk.

Starches are not for everyone. Please get your AMY1 genes checked. Just as some people are lactose intolerant some people are starch intolerant. His diet raised my triglycerides (to the highest level I’ve ever had), hsCRP, and Apolipoprotein B. Lowered my HDL. I kept a good record of my food intake (still do) using chronometer. When I stopped the diet those markers normalised. I really wanted it to work but realised it wasn’t for me. There’s a lot of genetics involved in nutrition.

There were people who had no illnesses at all and die of Covid what is he saying. We need to safe ourselves first they always saying the planet . U know why the planet is this way all the chemical and toxic environment that’s it.

He tells the truth. Sadly he kinda reminds me of an old horror movie called, "Invassion of the body snatchers", where people's bodies are taken over by pods while they "sleep" ( like the money hungry food industry) and one person tries to warn the other towns but nobody believes him. The Earth will make us change or she will get rid of us and start over. Hope were not too close to human extinction.

Hi ! @PLANT BASED NEWS Hey dude, when you going to go to Austin, to do a Tour restaurant and food trailer.. if you get a lot of views on that one you should do hotels in Austin . What do they have in the kitchen.🌱

You would think he hasn’t been screaming this from the mountain tops for decades. This isn’t new! What is it going to take to wake people from their stupors?

I love you Doc McDougall

Enjoyed the video not sure about his 5% protein claim though 🤔

Great to hear from Dr McDougal and his advocating a whole food plant-based diet. It would be great if like Dr Greger, he could identify the studies backing up the view that starch is beneficial for weight loss- but also I think it would carry more weight without any kind of references to any religions- I can see referring to the old testament or new testament for possible historical references about a plant based diet, but it seems unscientific to try to link a claim that Jesus or a deity advocated or advocate a plant-based diet, although maybe it may be true, it seems to not have as much scientific veracity.

Mic the Vegan is an excellent channel too

He had me at starch and lost me at Al Gore...

Starches do make you fat, but its the starches mixed with fat like in poato chips. I have 10 pounds to loose so I'm cutting back on my carbs & eating more vegetables, plus extending my intermitent fasting period.

50% to 80% drop in greenhouse gas production by eliminating animal agriculture sounds like a careless over statement. Just consider all the fossil fuels being continually burned by ships and planes and other transport. Experts say roughly 11% to 17% of greenhouse gasses come from animal agriculture worldwide. It's still a very significant contributor though.

I just learned Dr. McDougall died in his sleep on 6/22/24. He was only 77. Wow! Did he die of a heart attack? Does anyone know? I am now having my doubts about a strict WFPB.

I agree u cannot live only on starches there are things that he says that are not correct at all . Cholesterol is not bad we need cholesterol we need the good high fats . What is bad is the calcium that build up in our arteries vessels the high in sugar process foods junk food seed oils that are bad that causes inflammation . We were vegans but not anymore after my child became so Sick and pale even though we ate healthy food . I stop for my child . I returned to eating a well balanced meal homemade foods always did this I buy grass fed meat and pastures raised eggs organic foods . My son is doing much better . Being vegan is not for everyone My son developed hives an allergy that was so bad that it mess up his gut he was 7 yrs old ….This is serious he could die . He became allergic to so many foods . He cannot eat anything that has flour at all . He just could eat the basics meals , beans rice grass fed butter , quinoa , vegetables potatoes eggs pastures raised , grass fed meat. No diary no pasta No bread even homemade from scratch he can not eat it. The only flour so far is coconut flour that I make pancakes for him for now so far .have not see any Hives . I use Glee grass fed , Beef Tallow, coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil those are the oils I use. I stop the vegan diet for my child I had no choice.

I periodically watch McDougall as a reminder of just how amazing it is how ideology can let you ignore scientific knowledge, and easily guide others to do the same.
