cool

Awesome interview, Dr.Klaper is someone I looked to when researching becoming Vegan regarding foods and nutrition. I am so happy for you and for all of us that you got to interview him looking forward to part 2.

Thanks for creating this content Derek, I'm looking forward to this one but I already gave it a thumbs up.

about your kind of serie video ''why you should eat them'' could you talk about rice? it is possible to eat rice without arsenic? if it is, how?

With all due respect, Dr. Klaper made some unscientific and inaccurate statements. This is pretty misleading... dismissing gas as normal is not correct. Gas, bloating, and pain is not normal. Antinutrients are much worse for human health than he outlines. He dismisses the warning signs that veganism is terrible for human health to favor his ideology. Bacon does not "rub" on your intestines. Like all meat, it is completely broken down into amino acids and fatty acids which are readily absorbed and used by the body. He also suggested that liver enzymes play a role in digestion, which is not true. Liver enzymes do not digest our food, pancreatic enzymes do. He also said that our digestive systems are basically the same as monkeys and herbivores when actually, it is closest to that of a wolf. The low stomach acidity, the gallbladder, the pancreatic enzymes, lack of fermentation chamber prior to the stomach, short large intestine and long small intestine... we are designed to break down protein and fat. We are not equipped to handle fiber and plants. We can digest starch (an adaptation that has allowed us to survive when animal food was scarce) but most plants are indigestible unless processed. Lectins are especially resistant to digestion and cannot be eradicated. Plants don't have claws or teeth or legs to run away, their defense mechanisms are present in the form of chemicals. He also ignores the damage that a high carbohydrate diet can do. The standard American diet is not a high meat diet, it is a high carb diet. That is the true cause of heart disease and diabetes. Carbs are not essential and not healthy.

slow and steady..................................wins the lifestyle change.

I think it's great that you are watching this channel and learning so much about nutrition and how to eat right already, so when you try vegan, you'll know more than most people do when they first go vegan. I'd recommend looking into Dr. Michael Greger's daily dozen which gives a good idea of what sort of foods to fill your diet with. Once you're adding all the good stuff in, there won't be any room for the bad stuff (the animal products). I'd also recommend looking into documentaries on the ethics behind veganism to really solidify the lifestyle change, docs like Dominion or Earthlings, because it's unnecessary what is being done to animals when we can be happier and healthier eating just plants. ✌🌌💜 good luck to you!

Dakota Dawson there is a ton of support if you ever make the decision. You have nothing to lose, trust me.

Challenge 22 on Facebook. Try it!

If you are into nutrition, look into healthy keto or carnivore. Veganism is not healthy. Coming from an ex-vegan.

Has Gemma made a video on her True North visit? If not that would be awesome!

Cool! :)

What is ‘True North’?

@French blue8 Happy to wait!

Kiyarose3999 it’s where they have the “Real Truth About Medicine” and it IS the real truth. ALL TOO REAL! for the animals!!!

TRUTH!

Agreed

OG

Human health isnt good enough?

@@doktoren99 ummm it's a bit complicated than that cos of the lifestyle. I see a lot of women having a stressful cycle that requires help.

@@doktoren99 well females have different hornonal systems than men, so some practices are better for women to follow and some are better for men.

Great idea 👍

Nick De Leon I would be down with that

Podcast on spotify would be great for listening while driving/traveling. Around 15-30 minutes could be a good length

Agree! Love Podcast, great chance to learn while driving and cleaning, for me!

Word!

Thanks for your recipes!

Thanks!

@Adam Kučera we dont need meat. That's a fact every health organisation is saying that.

Even Americas...

It was an awesome experience :) I was a bit star struck I am not going to lie haha

no lol, if you feel shitty all the time (literally) being alive becomes a pain.

@@empiricus2211 "lol"? When someone has serious gut health issues, they should consult a professional. For people who look for their medical advice on KZfaq, Gojiman would be a good place to start.

Steven Priest gojiman, the person who charges a shitton for tests that might not even give useful results. Why would I take health advice from someone who looks malnourished and grey?

@@empiricus2211 Oh, if you are genuinely sick with gut health issues and insist on choosing your doctors based on their physical beauty, check out Angie Sadeghi, MD. She's the best-looking gastroenterologist in my opinion. And if you're concerned about the expense of tests and whether they'll reveal anything new, well, you've never been as sick as I have been before I switched to a WFPB diet.

@@StevenTPriest Sorry my message came of as really passive agressive. I was in a bad place when I typed that, so I apologize. What I mean with 'looking good' is not beauty in the way that word is most often used. What I meant is the zest for life in his face. Vigor. When I look at that guy he doesn't strike me as someone who knows the in's and out's of his body and is free to use it in any way. That's not meant as an insult, but an observation. Science is useless without the actual experience of well-being.

Poster Klapper has twigs as forearms and still has a belly. Skinny fat he is....

I wuv Dr. K!

Ayyy, exactly the same with me lol

Awesome, glad you are doing so well and feeling so good!

Vegan diets done right enhance performance. I was on low carb meatman diets before and had no gains

Subbed for vegan love ❤️❤️

I subscribed and turned notification Bell on. We need more strong male role models in the vegan Community even if you are only 16 or 17, your voice matters.

Whole Food Plant-Based Man yesss dr Gregor would be awesome

No problem, thanks for watching!

Same! Such a good guy.

Thanks for watching :)

Oh one more thing, the more beans I have eaten the better my bile has gotten. I can tell a huge difference in energy levels and the ability to digest my food.

Thanks!

Thanks Maggie!
