I like to say that I’ve learned how to “taste with my stomach”. In other words, I imagine how I’m going to feel a couple hours after I eat. I know plants will make me feel good. Processed or meat based meals are going to make me feel bloated, experience heart burn and have higher blood pressure and swollen limbs. Taste with your stomach!

People who say they "can't swallow" something healthy lack maturity. I've heard people say "lettuce gags me," or "I could never give up meat." What they mean is they aren't willling to try, they aren't disciplined enough to make an effort. I ate green beans today, I eat hoards of greens, I can't stomach a lot of meat now. It all has to do with how much you want to be healthy.

What, I often eat two apples back to back while maybe reading a book. They're easy to grab rather than cook something when you're involved in something else.
So grateful for Dr. Davis’s compassion.
While I was never particularly interested in potato chips and snack foods of that kind I do crave intense flavor. Indian and Thai cuisine are my weakness. However, I also know how to cook. I can read cookbooks and smell and taste all the happy smells, tastes, and textures. Spices are natures pharmacy and teas of all kinds are an easy and healthy taste to acquire.
Dr. Garth, I'm thankful for my plant-based diet 🙏💚
@32:00 Who can eat two apples? Um, We had an apple tree in Washington. I would regularly make an "apple cobbler" with 7-10 apples, rye flakes, cinnamon, lemon rind and apple juice and date chunks. That was dinner. I still eat 2-3 apples on my kale and pasta salad.

When I was pregnant with my twins, I failed (just) the glucose test. I tested my blood sugar religiously after that, and not once did it go up, which appeared to shock the medical staff involved with me. I always knew that I couldn't handle sugar - a glass of apple juice has pretty much the same effect on me as a glass of wine - and have avoided it as long as I can remember. People used to think I was just "disciplined" but it was never that. I just hated the way it made me feel.

Thank you, PBN, for making this video. Thank you, Dr. Davis, for talking about when plant-based or vegan isn't working for a person's health. Fat shaming overweight and obese plant-based eaters is REAL! I stopped being a plant-based eater because of it. I am getting back into it slowly, but it is hard. Pringles call out in the night. My BMI is 33, so you can imagine the looks I get when I tell people I am plant-based with very mild hypertension (not high enough for drugs, but not healthy either) and no other co-morbidities, just fat and mildly unhealthy. They look at me like, "Why" It's not doing anything for you. Anyway, it's about the animals and environment now because when I was strict about it all, it didn't change my health markers.

This is what I got from this video the most. I ate perfect plant based 8 months, lost almost 40 pounds before I plateaued. Still overweight, and I don't think I could have done better than that. My best still left me with an A1C of 6.1 without metformin and people still giving me side eye to hear the vegan has diabetes. If ozempic is the tool I need, then it's the tool I need. We don't shame the paralyzed for needing a wheelchair.
I’ve been an obese vegetarian, sometimes vegan, for 20 years and I hate telling people I’m vegan because of the look on their faces. It’s embarrassing. I feel like such a failure. Thank you so much for talking about this.
I'm a compulsive overeater. I enjoy eating food. I don't enjoy getting overweight and rushing toward obesity. I need help. Food is always on my mind. I don't want bariatric surgery: I need brain surgery.

Choose foods that have rich texture and avoid anything that's soft and easy to swallow without chewing. So eat more fiber and protein i.e. apples with skin, celery, beans, chickpeas. When choosing grains always look for the hard ones like whole oat groats (not flakes), millet, whole barley. If looking for a fat source choose whole nuts, not oils or butters. Whole minimally processed food is digested for a longer time and has higher volume making you feel full easily. Also the longer process of chewing is related to appetite control and higher satisfaction from food. After a while on such diet your appetite will become smaller and your obsession with food will decrease.
70 pounds? That's amazing! Good for you! 🌻

I lost all faith in a major carnivore influencer when I came upon a post she videoed 6 months ago from her tropical paradise; her morning routine included a self-injected dose of “peptides” that nourish and energize her and she said she wasn’t free to say names of products online because Pharmaceutical companies would be on her. She charges big bucks for individual and collective consultations for a wide range of devastating illnesses and weight loss strategies. I educated myself on what Ozempic and Knock offs were and how the FDA shepards them through the system and realized that’s probably how she stays stick thin and eats loads of fatty meat in between higher protein, lower fat days of PSMF philosophy

"Atomic Habits" by James Clear. I started changing my eating habits with the first 'atomic habit' - I stopped putting creamer (Oat Milk Caramel 4g sugar per tbsp) in my morning coffee. It oddly gave me a huge win. I began eliminating sugar, processed, fast food, and animal products. Within a week my inflammation dropped by at least half and I started feeling more energetic. Haven't lost much weight but I feel better for sure.

Go vegan for your health, whole food plant based. Go vegan for the animals. Go vegan for the planet. Go vegan and be healthier and happier. A lower risk of heart disease and cancer for you and a better planet for everyone, human and animals. Eating healthy is not a diet it is a healthy life style. Go out and look around. The vast majority of people you see are obese or al least over weight. People do not need to be fat shamed BUT being over weight is not healthy and leads to a host of illnesses. When you look around you can see all the unhealthy people without taking a blood test or a fitness test "NORMAL" for the average American is "UNHEALTHY" The health of society is in decline.

What is eating poor diet but taking these drugs ... could malnutrition become an issue?
Some good points here. And a few bold admissions, but oddly enough, not much about the actual drugs in question. Sadly, the quick fix is being peddled, even though the problem the quick fix seeks to fix almost always took years--decades even--to produce. And it always has root causes that have nothing to do with biology or physiology. That said, however, biology, physiology and evolution combined with the root causes always beget problems with various and often conflicting and confusing signs and symptoms. So don't confuse signs and symptoms with the root problems, and definitely don't treat symptoms. Treat the underlying problem instead. Also, keep in mind that a morbidly obese binge eater who gets bariatric surgery and loses the weight will, if given enough time, put all of the weight back on (and then some). Which is why surgeons now recommend counseling, therapy and lifestyle modification over the course of a few months before the actual surgery (in effect, the patient is modelling the habits and behavior that they need to implement in order to keep the weight off). And it comes as no surprise that a large proportion of people who do this eventually choose not to have the surgery. Why do they opt out of surgery? Simple: they are successfully getting at the root cause of their problems, feeling better and losing the weight as a result. All the surgery would have done for them is provide them with temporary relief by attacking the signs and symptoms. That morbidly obese binge eater has to work on their binge eating in order to get somewhere on the health front. There are no quick fixes, people. And it's only a matter of time before people realize that the latest iteration of quick fixes not only don't work, but also come with serious problems. Peace!

What you say feels intuitively true. I would add that doctors don’t deny people with hypertension immediate medication to lower it and instead tell them to lose weight. They do both. The safe with type 2 diabetes and metformin. The same with statins and heart disease etc. Without lifestyle change the underlying problem will remain but medication can reduce the risks of catastrophic consequences arising from them sooner. I think it is the same with ozempic. Without lifestyle change the weight loss will last only as long as the medication works, but with lifestyle change the medication will provide rapid reductions in the immediate risks from all the above mentioned threats and the lifestyle changes will allow the drug to be discontinued and the health benefits sustained. If someone can do it all without the drug, great, but if they can’t, this can be the difference between success and failure.
A local radio station has an advertisement for a generic,cheaper version of Ozempic with doctors standing by for online consultations including meal plans and follow up strategies to minimize the bothersome side effects that some patients incur; all for a mere fraction of the cost for Big Pharma’s product
Thank you this is concerning i have family on this ozempic
So, so sad to see people kiIIing themselves with quick "fix" weight loss fads instead of putting the work into a healthy diet & exercise. A whole foods plant based diet is easy and budget friendly.

I have lost about 100lbs 4 times over in my life doing whole food plant based, exercising for hours each day, fasting 23:1, counting every calorie and macro. And it just comes back. If you learn about the science of weight gain and how it changes the body and that it’s a metabolic problem that often cannot be fixed long term you might stop using the insulting word ‘work’ as if most overweight people didn’t already work really hard to try lose and keep weight off. This is pure ignorance. Ozempic doesn’t harm bodies terribly. Rare cases it can cause problems but it isn’t just harming people. It is saving lives.

Processed food manufacturers need to hear from consumers that less ADDED chemicals, sugar, oil and salt is wanted in their food products. Why is there so much ADDED sugar in everything, even bread. That's just crazy Email, text, tweet or phone your favorite producer of poison and let them know consumers want less salt, oils and sugars in their products. Let their customer service department know that all the extra added salt, oil and sugar is not necessary or desired and is causing health issues.

Companies only listen to what makes them money. Those additives don't deter enough of their customer base to care. There is only 2 ways to improve this. Customers need education to not buy these products, then companies will listen. Or regulation needs to regulate these additives out of the food supply. Their should be sugar regulations though. One big change that could happen right now is they could regulate that sugar can't make up more than x amount of your product. The regulations could start at one level and then every few years that level drops. So like say sugar can't make up more than 40% of your product, then in 2 years it's 38%, and continue until it's at a healthy level. That way products have time to adapt but also consumers have time to acclimate their tastebuds to enjoy things with less sugar. Just complaining to companies won't make a difference if they are still making money.

Thank you for your question regarding obesity/dieting messing up metabolism permanently. I was morbidly obese as a teen and lost over 100 lbs in my early 20s. I’m now 44 and felt like I have been white knuckling to keep the weight off for two decades. I am plant based for my health and I’ve always been an exerciser, but as I age I haven’t been able to keep the weight at bay. There’s a deep shame in that. And all the time people say “oh you’re vegan? I thought vegans were skinny….”. All my blood work is gorgeous and I am very healthy. But now I’m 20 lbs overweight. And the only solution that works is a near starvation diet. And frankly, I’m tired after decades of eating so low calorie that I feel weak. Of being hyper vigilant. The mental and emotional and physical battle every day fighting myself. It’s exhausting. It’s validating to hear what I’ve always thought: my metabolism is perhaps permanently fucked. So instead of size and weight, I just focus on inflammatory markers, cholesterol, blood pressure, hormones etc. I’m great there and that is good enough for me now.

@@davidr1431 I cannot claim expertise in the subject, but my thoughts - for what they are worth - are along these lines: There is evidence that early humans migrated seasonally in pursuit of megafauna, and it is likely that the hunting of those animals aided in their demise, or were the primary cause. But just because people hunted these animals does not mean that they only or mostly ate these creatures. We have evidence of humans grinding grains tens of thousands of years before what we call agriculture. People were gathering wild grains and converting that into food, and it was this that appears to have sparked settlements. They were gathering wild grains, along with tubers, and were stored for future use,, even in the pre-pottery neolithic. When researchers investigate early human sites such as caves, they often find bones of animals. But bones will survive where plant foods will not. So a site with a pile of bones accumulated for decades or centuries will give a misleading impression of diet. It didn't help that researchers failed to find the evidence of grain consumption until much more recently. Our digestive structure has evolved to eat plants, and there is evidence that we always did this. I do not think humans first ate meat and then added plants, but the reverse, with meat being added later. An adaptation, very early, and which helped the survival of our species. I don't mean to suggest that early humans were vegan, or that they didn't eat meat. But rather that the gathering portion of the diet provided the majority of the calories up until very modern times.

I'm just grateful we have internet so i could learn everything i have for the past few years :). Imagine going to the library like in yesteryear!
I just started the starch solution vegan diet which is plant based and I feel great have more energy to do things I dont stay hungry, so far I lost 4 pounds, I started the diet weighing 206. I walk and do some dancing exercises at home. Plus I am a certified nursing assistant which I am on my feet running after call lights 8hrs a day so hopefully through this diet and exercise I will lose weight. Plus I did not like my cholestrol level really high, I am anemic with a iron defeciency. Have other things that are going on. Plus I have chronic osteoarthritis in my right ankle due to an injury I had 15 years ago. So hopefully this diet works and make me healthy enough to take care of some or most of these things.

What drug was Dr. Davis referring to when he said it really helps arthritis?

I think he is talking about the drug to lose weight, it helped diminish the stress of carying excess weight for the joints, and help with arthritis as a side effect

going to the gym will change your neurochemistry (dopamine, serotonin, ..) and that will make you feel better and able to resist all the cravings.
I thought this was about the WFPB diet. Is it about surgery?

Probably more about avoiding surgery via the WFPB diet. But Garth Davis is a surgeon so it’s going to come up.

Yeah i'm not seeing doctor Nowzaradan make this connection any time soon...
So have I got this right? Have an injection or surgery and any diet won’t help?

No, the last main point is to make lifestyle changes to whole food plant based and if those changes still don't get a person to their weight goal consider surgery or drugs.

Been wanting to know more about this since the south park special, curious :)

I think one big part of the problem, is that Dr. Nowzaradan got offered My 600 Pound Life, instead of Dr. Davis.
I can easily eat 8 apples in one sitting.
Durianrider was right Joe. You were eating KFC on the side
Plant based whole foods is not the same as vegan...being PBWF its impossible to put on weight unless you eating piles of fruit or fruit juice

We cant eat many apples? there are video of peoples eating 10, 20 and 30 bananas in a meal.
I am carnivore...diabetes has improved, vision improved, psoriasis, dermatitis and eczema gone. My skin looks great, lost weight and have more energy. My fibromyalgia and arthritis pain is almost gone. If I eat plants, everything flares up.

What do you do about phytates, lectins, oxilates, saponins and tannins and so on? Do you do a weekly enema? I heard that supposed to help.

It’s starting to threaten the procreation of humans….have you seen lately the size of kids in an avg school? And ask an OB what their avg pregnant pt weighs. The infertility business is booming too. Health system is keeping us ticking, but in a SHTF triage scenario…..thin (& fit) will win, I’m afraid.

A lot of this also is because young people don't move....not only do they not exercise...but they walk slow...they walk sloppy....They're physiologically lazy because 8 hours a day of video games and social media destroy the body.

Eat most of your meals without meat or dairy, just have meat and dairy a few times a week... is the healthiest way to go. No seed oils apart from olive oil. High calcium veg to combat the oxalates in some veg. As much organic produce as you can afford to support the businesses and nature. When you get older eat more protein. Thats it simple, plant based mostly and you will thrive, oh and maybe an algae omega 3 supplement a few times a week
