A word of caution, I personally eat loads of starchy foods, so really don't find McDougall's stuff much off the mark but do include things like protein from plant source and exercise. Assuming you mean McDougal not McGregor as there is no such plant doc....this is doctor Greger. But there is this from forks over knives site in reference to McDougall's retirement in 2018... "But after a year of personal hardships-Mary underwent shoulder surgery, he broke his leg, they lost their home in the 2017 Santa Rosa fires-McDougall decided it was time to pass the torch."" I heard but was unable to provide from other source, just could not find it today, the broken leg was in reference to a fall in the bathroom. He is old but not real old, so a broken leg from a fall in the bath, osteoporosis which typically runs concurrent with sarcopenia. They are rarely if ever found apart, excepting patients in hospitals in bed rest conditions. I per example fell from a 24 foot ladder working on a second story roof last october at roughly his age..suffered no broken anything, hit my side hit my hip my face even my ankle with a severe sprain but no broken bones. Why no sarcopenia is why. Which is very important, All people fall at times a break or not is likely sarcopenia or not.

Chris - are you going to do a deep dive into Peter Attia's book? That would be so helpful. His points about sarcopenia are valid. I had to be on bed rest for 2 weeks and was shocked at the muscle loss I experienced. BUT...all his emphasis on protein to extend life as well as the need to do intense training to boost VO2 max...while I was reading all I could think was "Hmmm, well that is not what the Okinawans are doing..." It would be really good to hear your take on his book.

@PlantChompers 6 ай бұрын

He does have a lot of good things to say, so his book is challenging to review. But he is not a longevity researcher and just completely blows longevity researchers off on several topics. I just don't understand why. I don't think it's profit motive. Dr. Greger isn't a longevity researcher either, but he listens very carefully to them and is willing to change his position as he understands more.

@HidingFromFate 6 ай бұрын

Attia has struck me as a really curious and interestingly problematic public figure in the "health space". Like you stated, he has a lot of good things to say. But he's seems to have adopted almost a, "throw my hands up" stance regarding nutritional science. Apart from a strong view on protein requirements and some basic ideas which everyone seems to share (eat unprocessed food, not too much, etc.), he seems to look upon much of the nutritional research and evidence as still being far too unsettled to trust yet. So he concentrates the vast majority of his own personal efforts and outward communications regarding the physical activity aspects of health, with lesser nods to getting enough sleep and reducing stress. But exercise is what he views as being the most important factor. Or at least, the most evidence-based. I have an armchair pop-psych theory about why he might discount much of the nutritional evidence, but I'll keep that to myself as it can only be a speculation at this point. @@PlantChompers

@CraigHocker 6 ай бұрын

@@HidingFromFate One thing to understand about Attia is that he is OCD when it comes to exercise. He has become negative about water fasts for the simple reason that he refuses to do only light moderate exercise like walking instead of his usual full workouts during fasts even though the studies show that moderate mild exercise is optimal for muscle tissue retention.

What I’d love to see is a debate between Drs. Greger and Attia on the question of prioritizing exercise and high protein (Attia) vs plant-base nutrition and low protein (Greger). They both are smart and articulate and have huge audiences that hang on there every word, but they both can’t be right. Seems to me that they would keep such a debate civil and possibly could learn from each other, as would we. Plant Chompers, you'd be great hosts of such a show!

@unholyquail4560 5 ай бұрын

Nah Attia and Greger do not seem a good match for this debate. Greger has made up his mind and Attia is one of the most stubborn people in the business. What you would need for Attia is someone who actually knows his stuf and does the actual research and publications. Valter Longo would shred Attia into a million pieces and Sinclair will not have much sympathy for the unscientific claims either (he didn't have mercy on Huberman on that front). So maybe Attia and Christopher Garder,.. that would be a nice debate. Or maybe Attia and Liza Mosconi? Those both can really put Attia on the thinking chair because they are extreme hardhitters with high publications on regular basis.

Yeah, the thing about chicken is that the breeds that are grown for meat all have the chicken version of the Prader-Willi syndrome : they cant stop eating if there is food available. Then once these chooks are dead and processed they are injected with brine AND SOY PROTEIN. The soy is to get the total protein back up as the fat content is so high (and it means it weighs more and you can make more $$). I used to work in a chicken factory for 3 years.

Just found you today. I am an 82 year old woman, and very healthy but just learned I may have a heart problem. Otherwise, great. I have given birth to 11 healthy children and breastfed them all. My doctor said that's why my bones are strong. But, today, I need to do better with the suggestions you gave us.

Thank you Chris and Toni for this great interview of Dr. Greger from two equally interesting points of view. Chris, you seem to enjoy expanding your reading list, so in order to avoid that unfortunate and stressful recording incident in the future, you might want to read Atul Gawande's "The Checklist Manifesto" (and if you haven't yet, then you definitely want to also read "Being Mortal"). Thank you again, the work you do with Plant Chompers is infinitely valuable! And never stop with the science part, it helps a lot with using your work in class with students so that they can be taught to reason like scientists and learn to process evidence and claims themselves rather than just be presented with competing claims when they come in class with questions about toxic content like What I've Learned videos on meat.

I'm a huge meat eater as to why i developed psoriatic arthritis. My hands, knees and feet are affected with arthritic pain. So I've been bedridden for 3 months because my feet and knees were extremely painful. But when i started to ditched meat, sugar and dairy i started to walk again but limping. The pain reduced for like 50% and my psoriasis is completely dry now. And also, my dad died from heart attack due to the said diet as well

I kind of feel like we are in this new health popularity contest, where the doctors can let the popularity get to them and just very clearly avoid controversy to keep getting clicks. Just listened to a Huberman/Sinclair episode from last year. It was all dancing around "unpopular" concepts like eating plants instead of steak, or just taking a pill for your high cholesterol or diabetes. I ended up kind of frustrated with it and don't think I'll listen to huberman again

@panes840 I'm paraphrasing but he said, "my cholesterol is kind of high, but I'm trying to get it down without reducing my red meat and eggs consumption" Like dude, you obviously know what is causing your high cholesterol, how about you make meat, dairy, and eggs not 50%+ of your diet? Dr. Sinclair would say "I'm mostly vegetarian, but I never tell people what to do or give advice, I can just tell you what I do..." You mean go mostly vegetarian because of the data shows the Blue Zones were all roughly 95% plant based dieters? Let's not go the extra step that would actually support more plants in your diet, which would be nice for the Animals and us Vegans. So I walked away being able to read between the lines on some stuff, but I feel Huberman the bros that listen every time will be like "yeah, hahaha, we don't need to lower our meat intake to drop our cholesterol"

I choose not to use a microwave, and I wonder if it actually makes a difference. Thank you for all the diligent work you do.

I'm planted-based but not WFPB. I just can't seem to stay on that protocol. I lose too much weight and my body fat drops too low. Then I can't stay warm and feel underpowered all the time. I know it's a calorie balance issue, but I just can't eat enough to support my activity levels. So, processed foods work their way in. I might figure it out sometime. None of the rest of my family is plant-based anymore either. They started the journey with me but dropped off one by one. Their issue wasn't too few calories! I think they just couldn't make the transition due to taste and habit. They all eat more plants now, for the most part. If you do try plant-based, make sure you can eat enough calories and definitely build up your recipe book to ensure you adequately surprise your taste buds. Some things may not agree with you. Determine what they are and just cut them out.

@@alane3983 I completely understand. I establish diets for people almost everyday. Plus years of food testing and nutrition studies on prisoners in third world countries. Have seen all things work and all things fail. All must be case by case person by person. Must take into account the living location: new York city vs a person living on the mountain side in Peru. Must take into account economic status, job, education, likes and dislikes,...all must be considered. A "perfect" diet is worthless if the person is allergic, dislikes the food or doesn't have access....

I took it home, went #WFPB cold turkey, lost 70lb, ldl cholesterol went from 190 to 70, bp dropped by 30 points. I'm getting excited .. just 5 days left til it hits my iPhone. Im reasonably sure I know most of the content but part of longevity/#WFPB books and podcasts (for me) is reinforcement .. keeps me on the straight and narrow..
