I have had chronic anemia since my teens due to heavy periods and was repeatedly told to take iron pills which constipated me. When I went through menopause I assumed it would disappear. Never went away. I became a vegan at 55 years old and now my iron levels are normal! No one ever told me to eat plant based to cure me. Doctors told me to eat steaks and peanut butter! Crazy. Unexpected results. Thank you!

Frankly, I think Barnard throws around the "v" word too easily. Veganism is not a diet. His clear bias toward veganism (ostensibly as a means to ideal human health) is a source of constant annoyance for me. The diet optimal for human health, vegan or not, is a WFPB diet; and Barnard constantly and subtly conflates veganism with health. That's his personal bias talking, and I see him more as a vegan activist first, and a human health advocate second. The data we have, says that about 7% of calories could come from unprocessed animal foods without causing harm, and that it's the ultra processed foods and the overall excess of calories that are the problem. This has nothing to do with whether a person is vegan or not. We vegans should always speak very clearly, to make a distinction between what's ideal for human health (not necessarily vegan) and what's best for the animals and the planet (veganism.) Additionally, we vegans, paleo diet proponents, carnivores, keto advocates, and everyone else (I'm vegan) should be all fighting to get CAFOS made illegal.

From my perspective as a dietitian, I see whether someone is vegan or not, as a distant second to how much processed food a person eats. It's FAR more impactful to health to cut all the processed junk first, then slowly transition to a fully plant-based diet. I would much rather eat an unprocessed omnivorous diet, than a processed food vegan diet. Now, for animal welfare considerations, yes; I'm vegan and you should be too, if you can. But first things first, please! Get that processed junk out of your life, for health, TODAY!

As regards sodium, make sure that none of your medications contain sodium either, e.g. soluble paracetamol/acetaminophen. Studies have suggested that the amount of sodium in effervescent tablets can raise blood pressure substantially in some people. The box should say if the medication contains sodium. It's a substantial source of sodium that is easy to overlook.

teenage years are really the hardest on health - I would have to agree with these statistics. If we look at marketing, laws, and schooling during teenage years vs what our bodies need - they're really opposite each other. So health really deteriorates then. It's only those who make it out of that that start improving their health. The issue is that you're improving it from a low point - so you never really recover the damage done during teenage (and even childhood) years - so that's why I feel these numbers are just so skewed. 6:00 - I wish I saw what the numbers look like if there wasn't such a high dropoff of health to recover from.

I left India about 40 years ago, and at that time people were mostly vegetarian, and not too much of junk was food available. We were all (friends in my generation) at quite healthy weight. Now when I go back and stay in a hotel near an international airport (to transfer to a domestic flight the next day), I see all kinds of junk food (along with the traditional healthy food) at a vegetarian buffet restaurant in the hotel. I just go the traditional food stations, but I see kids crowding around junk food stations. I noticed that all these kids are overweight. I felt bad and thought that it was irresponsible of their parents not to direct them to healthy food options.

You're in a tough spot. You'd have to stop this drug and start consuming phytoestrogens, because low to no estrogen means bone loss. I feel phytoestrogens from plants are protective. Estrogen from animal foods are not. Plus, animal foods are highly acidic, which robs the body of alkaline minerals, especially calcium and can lead to osteoporosis. 😐

If I had a whole fridge full of meat - if I wasn't on the brink of a health crisis, I would likely bring one vegan nutritional equivalent for every meat slab I would've replaced when I eat them. So I would just eat up what I have - I wouldn't let it go to waste. I wouldn't feel it makes you any less of a vegan than before - as you didn't know better - so it's not your fault. If you can give it away, even better - but then you're just putting your problems onto others. If you put it in the landfill, taht's bad too - as then the landfill jobs wouldn't be vegan anymore - so you just have to take responsibility for one's own actions and deal with the consequences until all the meat's gone.

There's no reason to completely stop eating meat, other than the ethical concern for animal welfare. I'm vegan, but I can't sit here and tell you that one 6 ounce serving of meat per week is going to harm you in any way, because it won't. As long as you don't eat it too often, and avoid processed foods largely all the time, a steak or two per month will not harm you.
