Is A Vegan Diet Always Healthy? | Dr. Hana Kahleova on The Exam Room Podcast

Ойын-сауық

Is a vegan diet always healthy? It appears that even with ultra-processed plant-based foods there are substantial health benefits!
The results of an analysis comparing a vegan diet with all plant-based indulgences on the menu and a standard diet containing meat and dairy are revealed by Hana Kahleova, MD, PhD, who co-authored the study.
After analyzing the results of nearly 250 study participants, she joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast with the surprising findings.
About The Study
The analysis assessed the association of a plant-based diet index (PDI), healthful plant-based diet index (hPDI), and unhealthful plant-based diet index (uPDI) with weight loss. The PDI measures adherence to a plant-based diet in general, the hPDI includes more fruits, vegetables, grains, and beans, and the uPDI includes more foods such as refined grains and fruit juices.
The findings are from a secondary analysis of a Physicians Committee study in which 244 overweight adults were randomly assigned to a vegan group that followed a low-fat vegan diet or a control group that made no diet changes for 16 weeks. Calorie intake was not limited for either group, and neither group was given diet quality instructions.

    I follow a low fat vegan diet with no added salt, sugar or oil. Once you cut the crap out of your diet, you can feel the harm it causes when you eat it. It is no longer a feel good experience. Vegan junk food is super expensive, and that is something that she fails to mention. As a fitness professional, I would never endorse junk food of any kind. I tell people that must eat packaged foods, to read nutrition labels. Junk food was made to be addictive. Addictions are quite costly. Let go of your addiction. Save money, and let the healing begin.

    Yes, you nailed it -- Dr. John McDougall would have none of this nonsense. McDougall has been preaching the health benefits of potatoes for decades. And it's not just his personal preaching; it's all the thousands of his patients that have gone through his and his wife's program that they run. All their incredible testimonials -- all the medications they've gotten off of, all the weight they've lost and never regrained, all the newfound energy and vitality of these patients. All from potatoes (and other healthy starches -- aka complex carbohydrates). So mark me down as very skeptical of this woman's claims.

    I also get what this eyre saying, it’s all about comparing replacement foods with replaced foods: pizza is associated with worse health outcomes than vegan veggie-loaded daiya pizza, and a bowl of , grains and beans with a balsamic-based sauce is associated with better health outcomes than daiya pizza. It’s better to have people move to vegan junk than not stop animal-based junk, so it’s a net positive, but perhaps not optimal and that’s still fine.

    I started out eating foods like Chao and Miyoko, and Tofurkey, as substitutes for meat and dairy, and that is what convince me that going plant-based was possible. So I think these foods have a place, even if they aren't necessarily the healthiest foods you can eat. I stil sometimes use a Field Roast Italian-style sausage in a bowl of farro with mushrooms and greens, or some Gardein crumbles in chili, but overall I'm eating mostly whole foods.

    Love Chuck Carroll! (what's not to love?) ...but this video... not so much. I've been entrenched in the The Proof with Simon Hill and have learned so much. I understand that The Exam Room is not intended to do the same kind of deep dive as the Proof but that program has made me super aware of the bias that exists in the community of "vegan" health gurus. I've come to respect those who are ethically vegan in their own lives but do not impose their beliefs on others and do not allow their moral stance to interfere with scientific inquiry. Simon Hill is exemplary in that regard as are many of his vegan scientist guests such as Chris MacAskill (Plant Chompers) and Dr. Gill Carvahlo. I can't imagine either of them suggesting that a vegan Subway sandwich on white bread or straight up orange juice is preferable to all animal products even perhaps wild salmon, kefir or an egg. This is clearly vegan bias not rooted in nutritional science.

    Perhaps it’s time for some different terminology. Instead of saying “healthy” or “unhealthy” plant-based, we could all benefit by terms like “optimal” and “suboptimal” plant-based. Animal based foods would still be “unhealthy”, but we wouldn’t necessarily taint some plant-based foods with that label.

But we’ve done some tests. I’m good, bone and protein levels are good. I need to build my skeletal muscle tho. However my husband, who does a weight routine daily has lost skeletal muscle, almost in the inadequate range. And he’s lost bone density. He seems to do better with much higher levels of protein. We’re going to try vegan protein shakes for him, but may need to reintroduce some animal protein. We both do about 10k steps daily. Non smokers, 16/8 meals, very moderate alcohol. It seems to be the lack of protein that’s the issue. I guess everyone is different.

    You should not be going hungry because that will signal to your body that you are in a time of scarcity and your metabolism will become slower and slower and being hungry is a miserable experience which is difficult to stick to. Check out facts regarding food density and also chew everything slowly and put your knife and fork down while you are chewing. Then pick them up and assemble the next mouthful. Also drink a dessert spoon of ACV in water before every meal. Aim for slow and steady ( think 6 months not 6 weeks). Try not to eat out and prep well so you don’t get so hungry you make bad choices while you’re not prepared. Good luck.

    vegetable oils healthy and potatoes unhealthy - Unbelievable. Vegetable oils are ultra processed and cannot be good for you. Potatoes might not be as good for diabetics, but if you cook them and cool them down, just fine. If that's the advice from Dr. Hana, think i'll give it a miss

    My question is on every podcast that talks about eating healthy, there is always how great it helps you lose weight. I have not found any healthy Dr. or podcast that deals with those of us who are under weight. What healthy foods could help you gain weight. Some say you have to eat 6 meals a day and eat potatoes now I hear white potatoes are not good according to your guest. Can anyone direct me to the healthy way to gain weight...thanks

    Eat as many of these types of plant based foods on a daily basis. Preferably without added sugars and salt. All of these are calorie dense: nuts in different varieties, also seeds like sunflower and pumpkin, peanuts or peanut butter too. Also, avocados and olives. And to a lesser extent, if you need more variety and have access to places like Trader Joe's or Aldi, they each have a couple different 20-25% fiber to carb ratio snack chips; lentil or black bean based chips at TD's, and then there's a tri color vegetable chips sold at Aldi. I find my weight creeping back up if I eat too many of these in combination on a daily basis.

    Plain potatoes are a problem for people that produce excess insulin. I used to do better with French fries short term blood sugar, but long term the extra fat and trans fats were a problem. Currently my blood sugar (spikes then) crashes on potatoes and I do OK after microwaved Sweet Potatoes or squash.

    My diet is largely whole plant based... lots of greens and beans etc, no junk. The "whole" part is as important to me as the "plant" part. Right now I'm eating a large salad with about ten organic vegetables, lentils, avocado and balsamic vinegar. But if push comes to shove, I'd choose a salad with a small serving of wild salmon as opposed to a vegan sandwich with fake vegan meat on white bread. Ethics aside, there are objective vegan scientists who would agree that the former is a healthier choice. I can name names if you like.

    Why not a salad, some beans and algae oil, rather than that dead fish which doesn't have fiber or much else of value, comparatively? I agree the white bread should be avoided, but fake meat can probably be made just as healthy as the fish.
