Only one way of eating has ever been proven to reverse heart disease in the majority of patients: a diet centered around whole plant foods. If that’s all a whole-food, plant-based diet could do—reverse our number-one killer—shouldn’t that be the default diet until proven otherwise?
The fact it may also be effective in preventing, treating, and arresting other leading killers seems to make the case for plant-based eating simply overwhelming.

And I get to look like THAT? Sign me up!
Mfw i ate whpb for a year straight and my blood work ended up all fricked. I also got heart arrhythmia. Never again.
dog are you for real? Did you do absolutely zero research on what you were embarking on or what happened? You do realize that eating saturated fats will frick your blood lipids and this has nothing to do with whether you eat whole foods or not, right? Inb4 the ketolards and carnivore morons screech and holler in response to this; anyone who is genetically disposed to higher cholesterol will convert saturated fats excessively into cholesterol and their blood lipids will get fricked. Some people don't have an issue, but lots do. And believe it or not, dietary cholesterol has little bearing on blood cholesterol
t. limited saturated fats for 6 months and went from high high hypercholesterolemia to well within the normal range
Whats your fat sources now? I also fell for the saturated fats meme because of fit and have high cholesterol now
Also did you limit your total fat intake?
back then I ate bacon and animal fat in large amounts, but I was also just generally eating in large amounts because I was a permabulker. Nuking your insulin levels and blood sugar like that contributes to dyslipidemia, plus I was also a heavy drinker (2-3 nights a week) and this significantly worsened my liver function--- liver is responsible for maintaining blood lipids, so anything you do that impairs liver function, like drinking or drugs, will have a negative effect on your lipids. So it was lots of saturated fats + excessive caloric intake + higher bodyweight + heavy drinking.
I've made several large changes over the years which has kept me healthy. For one, I don't eat much animal fat. I haven't eliminated it from my diet, but I eat leaner meats, I don't eat red meats often and almost no processed meats, I have lowfat cottage cheese and greek yogurt, and don't use butter often. I stick to olive oil and avocado oil. FYI not all vegetable oils are created equal, and some are not great for you or are downright bad for you, so you have to do your homework. But most significantly my overall caloric intake is much lower than it used to be, I have much longer fasted periods, and I am about 25lbs lighter--- this alone is good for general health and insulin sensitivity, but it also means my fat intake is lower overall, saturated and unsaturated alike. I also stopped drinking 3 years ago and I am way healthier and feeling much better overall for it.
>mfw Dr Greger is secretly a IST shitposter
>Goyim please eat disgusting food and live long and pay taxes longer!
No.
I will eat fatty red meat steak
I should have thought this trough before having kids. Now i am doomed to try and live as long as i can and stay healthy.
>disgusting food
>vegetables
>beans
>nuts and seeds
>fruit
My Black, what?
honestly dude the joke is on morons who still think vegetables are YUCKY and fruits are YUCKY. YUCKY MOMMY!! NO WANT!!!!
They are going to die young
>disgusting food
things that didn't happen
I wish it did not. Trust me i would rather live off beans and rice than salmon and macadamias. That shit is expensive af.
mmmm yummy glyphosate with added sugar sauce, thank you zaddy Gates
>glyphosate
homie what do you think your stupid cows are eating? Enjoy your hormones and antibiotics too
>heh see the conventionally farmed cows are eating poison too so I'll just eat more of that poison directly to own the chuds!
vegan brain
Dawg I just buy bobs red mill oats. They stopped using glyphosate years ago. Washing produce greatly reduces pesticide residue. Can’t say the same for meat.

That is actually a very cute pic. But damn. He‘s only 49? I though he‘s 60 or so. Daaaamn.
it's actually sad how morons on here who want to make it look bad to eat vegetables or <insert le bad food> or <insert diet that is not their preferred absurd diet of all-butter or something> just find an image of a bald guy eating it and cite it as proof of what they believe. Baldness is not attractive but it's not like it's a sign of being unhealthy, it's literally just genetics
He looks green and 60.
He's bald, I don't listen to bald "people"
The only issue is carbs. If you eat meat till you hit your protein and fill up on some veggies you will be maxxed out. Keto doesn't incorporate veggies which is why it is not sustainable.
>Keto doesn't incorporate veggies
Are you moronic? Are you mixing up keto and carnivore again?
Veggies nearly ubiquitously have carbs you mouth breather thus keto cannot consume them. Avoid starch.
>reverse heart disease
still gonna die though, right?
Nice try, vegan.
health =/= looks.
greger might live to 100 and ted might drop dead at 50
>There is no need to tell vegans that they should kill themselves.
Weird how every child put on a vegan diet ends up stunted from malnourishment. I'm sure this has no implications regarding it's effects on adults.
Sure the ADA would advise against it then. Oh... "well-planned vegetarian and vegan diets are appropriate for all life stages, including pregnancy, infancy and childhood."
>Weird how every child
Except this isn't true. Going only by clickbait headlines is a sign of low intelligence anon.
Well, yeah. Newborns eat nothing but milk. That works well for a few years. Different life stages. But after a certain age, animal products may no longer be very beneficial, and might even be harmful.
Vegan diets haven't been "proven" to do anything valid, OP. Even vegans get heart disease, die of heart attacks and cancer, and all the rest.
You can't outrun your genetics. HOWEVER, you can get healthier by eating a diet that doesn't suck. BUT, that doesn't mean you have to eat vegan, just that you have to stop eating shitty goyslop all the fricking time and learn 2 nutrition.
There are plenty of fat and sickly vegans out there, I used to work in the vegan retail products biz and know firsthand how many fat fricks "eat vegan" and look like dogshit whose health is certainly far from ideal.
>look like grima wormtongue
>still put your face + body out there to the world and claim to be THE nutrition expert
I can almost respect the atrophied balls on this guy
To be fair, Greger looked just as bad when I met him at the Animal Rights Conference a few times almost 20 years ago, he looked like he was in his 50s when he was still only about 30 years old.
But, he's always looked like complete shit, that is not to be questioned.
that's fair tbh. Some people look old as frick even young. There is a clip of Gordon Ramsey at 19 and the bloke looks 35
But, you'd THINK that if his vegan diet was so amazing, he'd actually look a bit better over the years, and here we are, no improvement whatsoever, just a skinnyfat baldlet same as he ever was.
That's because being a professional chef ages you as much as a warzone.
Not really, I think it's because Gordon Ramsay got famous late in life and so when we see him young we associate him with the image of old Gordon Ramsay.
It can also be because he hit his apex in life at an old age, and thus throughout his early life there is a sense of aging to him because he still hasn't hit his apex and is thus evolving in a strive to reach it. A lot of people tend to mantain their looks and personality from when they first hit their apex.
I've only eaten vegetables and local eggs for 15 years. lets get this over with
>I feel great
>It's much harder to eat right, you cant just 'eat' like when I ate meat, need them proteins
>I wish people didn't eat farm meat and everyone was a hunter, which is based. Reason? Animal gets to live free until it doesn't.
>I don't tell people what to do or preach out of context.
>If I had a kid they would eat meat until they could choose to figure out their own food, like my dog, who eats butchered meat I prep
any questions?
I don't even believe vegans are real and no one can convince me otherwise.
I use to believe the argument that the best diet is the one our ancestors ate for millennia, which was predominantly carnivore.
Then I started thinking that humans back then were in the mode of "survive long enough to reproduce, and live long enough for children to be able to fend for themselves, then die so as not to waste valuable resources of the tribe". At that stage of the human species, it was more about increasing the population and survival to early adulthood, rather than having an extended lifespan well past reproduction to 100 years +.
So carnivore might be optimal for that but not optimal for extended lifespan that we want in the present time.
It's like how milk is the optimal food for all young mammals for rapid growth and development. But if you drank an all milk diet for life it might not be good for an extended lifespan.
We evolved from great apes. All most all of them are herbivores.
The development of being able to eat meat was most likely a last resort like ketosis. Not the norm.
Even the great apes preferentially eat meat when they can get it.
>enjoy life, eating the things that make you happy
>die sometime between 60 and 75
>slump through a tasteless devoid of sublime pleasures
>die anyway sometime around 80
This is tough.
My dad got diagnosed with osteoporosis after 20 years of eating vegan.
