Dr. Michael Greger: "How Not To Diet" | Evidence Based Weight Loss

Besides having so much knowledge, Doctor G is Is such a brilliant, Polished Communicator and speaker. So articulate. And so entertaining! He Is my role model!

Greger is a liar. All Humans are carnivores. That man is pushing lies. It's all part of an agenda.

I’m was surprised when you mentioned you don’t know why more women get Lupis than men. It’s due to the fact that women use Aspartame ( sweetener) much more than men. Aspartame is very much a cause of Lupis.

Lets see them with their suits off. You can’t tell anything about a human beings state of physical health when hes wearing a costume. Lets see his physique, some feats of strength.

This man is doing more for public health than the Surgeon General could dream of. The secret is not being beholden to financial interests. 💚🥦🌱💪

I followed his book advice religiously, used all the tricks suggested and gained 10 pounds in 6 months. 🤷‍♀️ I still follow most of his advice mind you because my blood pressure and cholesterol have normalized but I have to count calories and can’t eat everything on his daily dozen to lose weight. I leave out the nuts and 2 of the fruits and carefully make sure I’m not eating anything more than the recommended of the rest. And I’m so hungry! But it’s the only way I will lose weight. He’s kind of naive about how hard it is for some people to lose weight.

How do u get my Iron if I’m on this diet??? I don’t want to become anemic?

Which charities does Nutrition Facts donate to?

so many obsequious sycophants in comments. Baldy didn’t invent the wheel.

Oh my god, how popular is this sick skinny old and nonsense man? 220k views?

He’s like a cross between Christopher Walker and the Brundle Fly. A ghastly creature.

I was invalided out of the army after 16 years service.
I am now nearly 63 and am considering a WFPB diet however am concerned about protein intake and muscle waste.
I was 134kg and 48% body fat three years ago now down to 108kg and 35% body fat. I have been as low as 102kg and 30% BF, but have gone up and down twice in that timeframe to around 116kg. At my fittest in the army at age 34 I was 95kg and less than 15% BF.
I have lost weight with a combination of walking, reducing calorie intake and increasing plant based foods whilst still eating meat, dairy and eggs.
I am really confused by the conflicting information available and whether as a senior I would get adequate protein from a plant based diet and what “adequate" really is.
For example this study questions the ability of a vegan diet to provide sufficient protein for the elderly.
Perspective: Vegan Diets for Older Adults? A Perspective On the Potential Impact On Muscle Mass and Strength. Jacintha Domić, corresponding author Pol Grootswagers, Luc J C van Loon, and Lisette C P G M de Groot
This study proposes that a vegan diet increases the risk of an inadequate protein intake at an older age and that current strategies to improve the anabolic properties of plant-based foods are not feasible for many older adults.
The authors state "this is the first article that provides an evidence-based perspective regarding the potential impact of a vegan diet on muscle mass and strength in older adults. The current perspective is highly relevant considering the envisaged shifts towards sustainable dietary guidelines."
Study published on ScienceDirect by Oxford University Press on behalf of the American Society for Nutrition
Any advice for me or comment on this study would be welcome.

Basically, I believe that a vegan diet is healthy. But I have a question: what about carnosin? It'sc contained only in meat and seems to be very important for us. Do vegans have to take an appropriate dietary supplement, or is there another way? I would be very happy about your information on this!

What if you want to gain weight through increased muscle mass if you're eating vegan - what is the best way to do that?

Some are saying that you are choosing the evidence that fits your bias. What do you say?

I wish I know this long long time ago… hated I drank so much dairy growing up

So, this ambulant skeleton preach a healthy way of living?! 🤣🤣🤣 even my grandmother at 80 looked better than this corpse

i used to severely struggle with binge eating. especially with desserts, i could smash an entire sheet of cookies in 24 hours on top of the other foods i was eating. and i'd do this regularly, every few weeks or so. at some point i decided to actually start trying to eat the daily dozen, and over the course of a year i tackled each category (12 months for 12 categories). it wasn't until i got to the beans portion which i saved for last and i was eating all of my daily dozen that i was just so full i COULDN'T eat dessert. not even a serving, because i was so full. totally knocked out my cravings. and that sounds good, but it was also distressing because i used food, especially processed sugar foods, as an emotional crutch. i wasn't prepared for the mental effect not craving or consuming them would have on me. but since then, i'm down 70lbs and i went from never running ever in my life to in less than a year being able to run 6miles straight in an hour. my life is really changed.

I went vegan over a year ago. I lost over 40 kg (80 lb) with little effort. It was also the ONLY diet I had been able to stick with so long without getting progressive more ill. It's not enough to cut down calories while eating the usual Western diet - what really worked was a two-pronged approach: (1) eliminate animal foods and (2) eliminate processed and refined foods. I eat plenty of whole plant foods, with a small allowance of commercial sauces and other condiments.

The sum result has been effortless weight loss without feeling hungry and without feeling sick. The WFPB diet fixed my high blood pressure, my diabetes, my fluid retention, my sleep issues, my digestive issues and more. My health is better than it's been for over a decade. And I continue to lose weight as I work towards my target. Pioneers like Dr Michael Greger, Dr John McDougall and others are heroes, because they work against all the vested interests of big medicine and big business, and still they battle on, informing and educating people about the most effective and safest ways to lose weight and regain health.

Disappointed here he said two years ago he was doing a video on Dr Brooke Goldner protocol.

aaand a quarter of the way in we're at 'plant-based' once again. I'm out.

he has a very unique way of talk

Do u need a multi vitamin if eating plant base ??

I was going to start adding fish and dairy and I use collagen no more . Plant base all the way

What a great guy! Thx!

Everyone in the USA needs to see this!!🌱

Untiiiil.... put it to the test! Dr. Greger and his team are curating the scientific publications like a monster! Thanks doctor 🙏 God bless you and your team...

He has some good info but his answer to arthritis is not fully right. A healthy weight and physical condition won't stop you from needing a hip or knee replacement with arthritis that's bone on bone. You need to get a new hip or knee.

I haven't hear the video yet, but I REALLY like the channel name. :) I've been looking for something like that!

Helpful information and especially good tip about slowing down in drinking a smoothie. I down them fast, glad I don't have to chew anything and my weight has not changed. Glad I'm here listening to this, I do want to be healthier and lose weight.

GOOD INFORMATION, BUT...
THE VARIATIONS OF PITCH IN HIS VOICE DRIVE PEOPLE NUTS. 🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Any advice on the discipline of saying no to tasty carnivore foods when you don't have health or major weight issues 'yet' 😉?

This doesn’t work. I’ve done everything he says to do and not do for 2 months and have not lost a single pound. I used the daily dozen and tweaks app hitting most of the, everyday. It’s so frustrating because this diet is a lot of work. I haven’t gained anymore weight though when I was gaining before so I guess there is that and my health is still likely better. But nope, no weight loss.

ha ha ...i think dr greger is well read and done lots of investigation, but sleeping whilst standing on your head for half the night is where i draw the line.
