I fasted regularly for five years. After one 19 day fast I began to bleed one drop per month twenty years after a hysterectomy. I was also on a raw vegan diet. What you are saying works. However I know supplements did not work for me- and Dr Lorraine Day 30 year cancer survivor also recommends against them.

I will never understand how a woman who is Type 2 Diabetic thinks she can possibly have a healthy pregnancy and birth. Are their obstetricians telling them to "control" their blood sugars, eat everything in moderation and be happy???? The ignorance....... The state of health in the American population is deplorable. WFPB for 9 years and wish I'd known decades ago. Thanks so much for these videos!!!

I'm currently from S. Korea (and I had travel Eastern countries for work and play), and largely saw we are not overweight/thin (except from the McDonalds, Western foods, etc., which we will get obese people ever so often). How does pregnancy and plant-based affect thin/normal weight woman in East Asia countries? (I'm dealing with a Korean who want to get pregnant and she is not overweight.) [I think East Asians' have veggies surrounding their plates, and USA has cows, chicken, and pigs, etc as the center of their meals.]

@@toni4729 its interesting you mention cigarettes as red meat and processed meat including sandwich meat (turkey, ham) deli meats, bacon, sausages, pastrami etc. Are classed as group 1 carcinogens the same as cigarettes. Dairy is liquid carcinogen not only linked to cancer but infammatory disease, eczema, asthma, childhood development problems, cognitive development problems in children with autism, osteopososis, heart disease, the list goes on. Healthy plant based diets are full of antioxidants, vitamins ,minerals, no saturated fat and the biggest way of fighting and preventing cancer, heart disease and inflammatory diseases.

@@danniegodfrey3622 You clearly believe what you're saying and I've heard it all before but there's a lot to be said for fairy stories. One of course is saturated fat. We are made of the stuff, before refrigeration, the only way we could keep meat was to smoke it and we did it for millions of years and we lived on it. What we didn't do was live on vegetables. They weren't around, certainly not all year round, meat was. As for disease, eczema, asthma? Where do you get the idea they're caused by meat? Let me tell you something. There are more vitamins and minerals in a lump of fat than in any bucket of vegetables. Autism, type 2, heart disease, all mental illness barely existed at all before modern supermarket junkfood. It's all down to sugar and the artificial garbage added to the foods. What makes you think you're saving the planet while you're soaking the planet in weedkillers and other stuff manufactured by the likes of Monsanto. Cattle don't need that stuff. Dairy is not a liquid carcinogen. I don't know where you got that idea. Vegans haven't been around long enough to be able to shoot the likes of us down.

Then come back to me and explain it. It has only happened in the last fifty years and you can't blame that on meat and fat. We've been eating that since time began.

@@elizabethyekini6483 I was diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis. My symptoms are similar to your condition. I went vegan about 1.5 years ago. I started feeling better in about a month and after 4-6 months, my symptoms were much better. I think, depending on how advanced your condition is, it will take time. Give it a few more months. Through trial and error I found out that foods high in fat (like vegan junk food or even vegan chocolate chips), processed food (especially flour, pasta, etc) and added refined sugar make me worse and I start to regress. I feel my best when I stick to potatos, rice, chickpeas and different types of beans, and lots of veggies and fruits. No added fat or sugar. Hope you feel better soon. Hang in there. 💜

@@Mona-1 i also had severe endometriosis. But i was vegetarian all my life with a heavy dairy diet. I 100% believe the hormones in the dairy gave me this condition. I have now been Vegan 3 years. I will not lie and say the endometriosis has gone completely. But it is so much better. I used to look 7 months pregnant every day. Now i have a flare up once every few months and nowhere near as bad. The pain before my periods is much less. It is important to note that not all Vegan diets are equal. A vegan junk food diet with processed burgers and sausages and "accidentally" vegan biscuits, crisps, sweets and sodas will not help illnesses and chronic conditions and can make them worse despite the technical emission of animal products. A nutritious Vegan diet of fruit, vegetables, pulses, legumes, beans, wholegrains like oats and quinoa, nuts and seeds will help. I also find cutting back or eliminating sodas, coffee (massive inflammatory/irritant) and refined sugars such as sweets and white bread and pasta will help endometriosis. I say this as i drink a coffee because i have no willpower, but when i give them up, the difference is phenomenal.

This is the point, you mix terminology of whole foods and plant based foods , plant based food , they are mostly highly processed , toxic foods . Whole foods, local ,non prossed predominantly vegetarian is what we need. Highly process vegan is just as bad as badly produced meat product . I be been on the front of vegetarian/vegan thinking for last 42 years , I see now how veganism is being hijacked and morphing into acceptance of junk food, as long as you call it plant based

Why would a plant based diet harm your baby? Dairy and meat are carcinogenic. Dairy contains cow pregnancy hormones and causes asthma, eczema and hormone related illnesses as well as being linked to childhood developmental issues and worsening cognitive development of children with autism. Cows milk is pregnant cow breast milk for a cow. Not a human. You make milk for your baby. And it should be free of hormones, antibiotics and carcinogenic properties of animal products. The reason people believe we have to eat these is because of propaganda circulated by the milk and meat lobbyists such as meat its whats for dinner and milk mustache adverts. Also myths such as not having dairy causes osteoporosis, when in fact the countries with highest dairy intake also have highest osteoporosis because cow milk is too acidic for humans and causes us to leach calcium from our own bones to neutralise it. Dairy also causes iron deficiency, cancers, IBS and diabetes. Healthy plant based (not processed junk) is the most neutritional anti cancer, anti inflammatory and anti disease diet you can have.www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2003/dec/13/foodanddrink.weekend
