Battle Between Science & Culture: Farming Animals Reduces the Food Supply; Glen Merzer

Yes it is "stupid" never really thought of it that way but it is. Thank you for being so utterly honest.

Going whole plants food diet cleared up my brain foggy. Also since going vegan (WPF) feeling great!

I think the reason some people can't figure out how to be vegan is because they are so stuck on a meal consisting of a entree (meat), and 2 sides. If I'm making a veggie burger my plate will look like that but otherwise it looks like just one entree. They want to see a side of potatoes and a veggie. All of that is typically in my entree. There may be a salad side and with fresh corn on the cob from the garden there is often that.
Meat eater friends that have a gathering and everyone brings a dish think my husband and I are missing out because we don't have that meat entree and feel they need to provide impossible burger or similar product. Not at all! Between what we contribute and several other vegan dishes there is always plenty to satisfy our palate and gullet.
I don't want impossible burger or it's ilk. That's for people transitioning who need help giving up what they are so accustomed to.

Yes, this has been a process. In 1978, my father had a double bypass surgery at age 57 and his heart stopped. I bought and read, ‘Save Your Life Diet’ and started eating more fiber. In 1987, I read, ‘Fit For Life’ and transitioned to vegan eating. I did not receive much support from my spouse so was eating a lot of pasta, rice and lettuce salads. I have transitioned into a Whole Foods Plant Based diet since marrying my current spouse, five years ago. I have recently joined a Christian Church and have found that the Lord is Love and we were created in Love. In the Garden of Eden we were advised that the Lord provided us with fruits from trees and plants for food. Genesis 1:29. The Lord found it to be good. All creatures coexisted in Love. Isaiah 11:6-9 explains our return to Eden where all creatures coexist in Love again. I am 72 years old and exercise regularly. I donated blood today and my pulse was 58 and blood pressure 102/60. My father fell asleep one night when he was 71 and did not wake up because of a heart attack.

🙏😊😊😊💚

Very inspiring ❤

Yes, also when I was 36 years, after a car accident I underwent a catheterization to rule out a stroke. The doctor later told me that my blood vessels were as clear as a 16 year old. Fiber, fiber, fiber. Fresh Greens, vegetables and fruits.

Love this!!❤🙏

We're at the point of no return, eating animals to our extinction. Even if we stop tomorrow, which is not possible, it'd still be too late.

I had cooking shock when I went vegan. Thankfully I learned from my Indian mom how to cook Indian food, and most of the dishes were already completely vegan!

The intentions are good, however the science behind some of his affirmations is not very well presented, which might be a bit counter productive.

Hello ,
This has to be the icing on the cake ( Vegan cake of course ) of all the Vegan linked videos I’ve seen 👍🌱
Glen just says it how it is !! ..facts, truth and with a sense of humour 👍
Now to convince the rest of the world’s population…let’s follow his thinking, let’s live to 100 and educate the conditioned and the non stupid that eating animals is stupid !!! ❤️🌱🌱

Take care

As an herbalist, it made more sense once I discovered veganism, as I knew plants were our medicine already. No surprise that your wife made the same discovery. Great story!

I wish you would argue with Neil de Grasse Tyson.

I like following a WFPB and SOS-free lifestyle (except when I hang out with friends because there isn't a restaurant in London that serves that kind of food). I feel so depressed having only a couple of friends who share the same lifestyle; all the others eat so much vegan junk food... 😞 If you live in London and follow the same lifestyle, I'd like to become friends.

Well done Glen , thank you.

❤️🙏❤️Shared!

well said Glen

Love Glenn great talker. Shailesh Rao also is an incredible man.

What climate emergency?

Great interview 🌱

I can believe that he born in 1956, became a vegetarian in 1973 and the only thing he was eating was cheese till he became began, same exactly here, the only difference is I ditch cheese because I watched a dairy farm video. I believe we are twins I my mother didn't tell me about it, jeje.
the stupidity in humans is incredible, they just care about money, but they forgot that you cannot eat, drink or breathe it.

God will not take away our planet earth, he will take away everything that is "stupid doings" and the planet green will stand.🌱🟢

What about processed junk food like twinkies and chocolate bars and cookies and cakes? That’s vegan food, right? Some one please explain this dilemma?

We have to speak life! and no ends, but ..when i think about it if there is an end we will probably be eaten of some animal because we have eat so many animals. "Carma"

I went carnivore was vegan for a while always bloated and gassy and hungry all the time. Best thing I ever did.

“Nobody gets hungry looking at a cow!!” Love this guy!!! Thank you!! 🙏🏻

Dr. Micheal Greger the peer reviewed nutrition study king.
Excellent interview.

We could not go on a cruise along the St. Lawrence because they would not provide vegan meals. They lost 6 customers.

Vegan 4 Life. For the beautiful animals and health. Do not eat meat, dairy or eggs. My only thought is WHY DID I NOT DO THIS YEARS AGO. What a magical planet we would have not tor if we did not torture then brutally murder trillions of beautiful animals just to satisfy our addiction to meat. Food is purely an addiction. One or two meals of fruit and veggies is plenty. YUMMY.

Great interview! Loved learning more about author Glen Merzer!

That testes comment was priceless

This guy looks like a Mafia Don..!😊

1973 for this guy, too!

Sugar has been shown to be very beneficial for the mitochondria’s ability to create energy. This guy is still somewhat clueless.

I actually have the same breakfast as he does and I thought I invented it. Who eats greens with breakfast like that? BTW baby bok choy is excellent for this. It's kind of sweet.

This was an EXCELLENT interview. Eating animals is just straight up stupid, no matter how smart you are.

heavily anticipated!
