Hey, it's Bob and Fran! We are honored to be on VeganLinked to share our stories and hopefully inspire others to great healthy, happiness, and longevity.

Wow, as a physician who is also whole food plant based with no added oils, this young couple is inspiring. I hope to make as big of an impact as them. Amazing human beings

I happened to have released this on their 60th anniversary together today ❤

I am in my 40s but I aspire to be like Bob and Fran when I grow up. They are a true inspiration to so many. Thank you for sharing this important message...

The insurance company concern is hilarious. Good for you both!!! Our (step) grandmother lived to 105 on no medications with no old people illness, hip breakages, etc etc. She lived in her own apartment and opened her own mail and answered her own phone until she was 102! Good diet, exercise (she had an amazing and smart exercise routine) and an attitude of joy! 💕

I'm 72 and had a stroke but it was a wonderful stroke because it made me wake up and go on a strictly plant based whole food no oil high carb vegan and I'm healthier now than before the stroke! We also live in Western North Carolina and it's a great place. Loved this!

OMG!! This interview was so great. It described my husband to a "T". That's what MY husband said, "I'd rather enjoy life and eat what I love, than give up meat, cheese, and milk." He too said he'd rather die young. But he hates being on blood pressure meds, and carrying extra weight around his middle. But like Bob said, all I can do is make the WFPB foods avail. If someday he wants to jump in, the water is great. I doubt he will. One thing a Vegan World would look like, aside from what Bob said is, a more compassionate world with much less aggression and bad tempers. I love these two people. They were on point and didn't leave a thing out.

Oh my goodness gracious, I so adore these two beautiful human beings. I am 64 years young and have been on this journey for 34 years. It inspires and motivates me to find those in their 80's who are fully committed to a wfpe lifestyle. Fran's and Bob's journeys of medical transformations, and their perspectives, are nothing less than profound. Thank you to the Germans and thank you to Vegan Linked for this extraordinary interview! Blessings to you all for what you do for our movement and beyond. Namaste.🙏V

So inspiring! As a healthy 30 year old vegan nutrition counselor i feel no fear of ageing knowing my diet and lifestyle will take care of me. I do feel very sad for my parents that are in their 70's, very sick and on a ton of meds. Still they refuse giving up eating all types of animals products and pure sugar products every day :( Yet showing them info and people who are older then them being so healthy on a vegan diet doesn't inspire them at all since it's not coming from the offical hospital doctors :(

So great! Please keep these up. I am a lonely vegan and also in the South, so nice to see some people of like mind...

Bob & Fran are leading the way by their youtube channel, their book, their online and off line courses! They are a wonderful example of how leading by example and being helpful to those who ask for it. I really admire them. Thanks for having them on your show.

Thank you so very much for sharing your story! I have an autoimmune disease, diabetes and had a heart attack 2 years ago at 50. May God continue to move you to help others🌺

Thank you so much I have so much admiration for you both you are inspiring and I at 73 with arterial plaque am now seriously committed to changing what needs to to live a long life.

I went Whole Foods plant vegan in 2002 as a result of going to a vegan monthly potluck hosted by a Hallelujah trained health minister couple. I am 67 years old and have no health issues.

I love this 🙏🏻 god Bless this couple I’ll get my book this weekend. Love that it helps fight child trafficking 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thank you for your video. I’m seriously considering this way of eating. I have Myasthenia Gravis and I’m nearing the end of my life now. This was a burst of information and excitement as well.

Bob and Fran have lots of success stories. They are are a success. I don’t understand why Host would even ask them! Great Couple. Much better than the Host.

I'm 71 and am 3rd generation in a vegan life style and so am vegan all my life and everyone tells me that I look 20 years younger than my age. I'm healthy with the absence of any kind of disease ....I never even had a bladder infection. I respect and love all living things created by God.... I thank you for sharing your story .....I feel so encouraged....so I'm not vegan alone. God bless you...

This was so refreshing and on point in every which way. The questions asked and the answers given. I like what Bob said, because it is my philosophy too, that you lead by example. A person will only change if THEY WANT TO CHANGE. God bless you all 🙏

I think Bob and Fran meant, a young lady named Maddie. Her KZfaq channel is called: "Let's Eat Plants". She's got the greatest energy and vibrant personality. I love her recipes.

What beautiful souls you both are. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us❤️

I just listened to a podcast put out by the kidney foundation. Two kidney patients and a doctor. I listened to the whole thing and shocked that there was not one mention of changing their diet. They only discussed new treatments/ drugs and support groups. Please reach out to kidney patients and give them this information.

they are so beautiful and seem so happy! i’ve been slightly pushing my dad to go whole food plant based vegan. he’s on multiple prescriptions and he’s already had surgeries on his heart in the past and had his appendix removed. he goes on daily walks and wonders why he’s not losing any weight. it’s the food!!! i recently saw paperwork from his doctors saying that he’s pre-diabetic... but he told me his blood work has been coming back good. GOOD HOW?! i know he’s stuck in his ways and afraid of change but he won’t even try. all i want is for him to try! he loves cooking so much and i think he'd have a ball making new recipes and recreating his unhealthy meals into healthy plant based vegan versions! i’ve been mostly raw whole-food plant-based vegan for 6 and 1/2 months now and i’ve never felt so full of peace, happiness, and health!

Awesome, I love being vegan, it's very rewarding. It makes you look half your age and very energetic.

That protein question really gets me. Most of these people asking the question are usually concerned as to where they get their protein. I'm quite sure their not going to KFC and checking the bucket for the amount of protein in each piece of fried chicken. They are googling protein in cheese burgers either.

Thank you very much for the interview. It's very couraging...

Thank you so much for sharing your adventure. You give hope to the many of us who are realising that it is never too late to change what we eat for our health. You work well together, and that in itself is powerful. Loving each other in supporting each others decisions adds years to your lives and other peoples. To choose or not to choose - to love oneself and our extended families by taking care of our 'earthen vessels'. Thank you....

I’m 50 and i too switch to wfpb 6 yrs ago when i got tongue cancer. It has kept me cancer free & i’ve never gotten covid despite going out a lot.

I am veterinarian and i am vegan, thanks for sharing...

You both are awesome! Thanks for all you do. True inspiration!

Wowwww so inspirational!!!!!

Thank you very much !

Great and inspiring interview!

What A great couple. Wish you all the best !

Thank you for sharing your story with us ❤

Luv you guys!

Thank you for the life giving message on healing Thi

Man, that is fantastic

So 21 minutes in and this is a fantastic interview Here’s the question that’s coming up and I know this Hass to be a conflict of interest for them… What are meals on wheels feeding those seniors because I know darn well it isn’t what they need and they know that too so even though it seems on the surface that it’s helpful it’s actually counter to that because we’re just perpetuating the problem I think honestly What these two should be doing in order to be a service it should be running a meet and greet and throwing vegan parties for the seniors in their community and if they needed to charge a cover charge per person it would help these people to get out of their homes if possible transportation could be arranged I know some people are homebound and can’t get out but people would have a chance to see how they live their life and how the changes they have made have benefited them they can actually be educational at that time they can have a bunch of pamphlets or posters which give them pertinent information about the foods that they are consuming on regular basis there could also be information about what chicken does because she mentioned in the very beginning of the video how eating chicken could be so harmful. That’s coming from the doctor or the nutritionist actually that did that meet and greet beginning of her journey Honestly I think that they would be better serving their community by being pillars rather than followers and going with a program that hasn’t worked isn’t working and is perpetuating an issue that needs to be addressed is imagine how many of those health issues those people who are now homebound could alleviate and how maybe it could change their circumstance entirely

I love how you guys talk about vegan. This is better live. Thank you for sharing this 🙏 ❤️ 💜

This is profound ,thank you❤️

Nice to hear you WE live in Germany and it's hard to get such fruits and veggies .it's so inspiring as my husband too got operated for Stomach cancer.would Like to Talk to you also in Person If possible.i am now 65 years young and would Like to age gracefully Like you both

I want to be Bob and Fran when I grow up. 🙂 Thank you for the inspiration. ❤️

Always encouraging -thx

Thank you for sharing! Very inspiring. ✅😘

😊 Great interview. Thank you

Love this couple!!!

Lovely couple keep up the good job

They are so cute! I wanna be like them

So helpful and so full of hope!

most inspirational video on this channel. The most understandable one is the Carnivore, Hunter, Fisherman, Dairy Farmer Goes Vegan! one and the most educational is the "Don't Let Your Fork & Spoon Dig Your Grave" - with the vegan library!

These lifestyles are always easier for people who live in a nice bigger home with good bit of land around them to walk in beauty for exercise. You need money to buy the food, and time to cook food all day. If you lived in a poor area were you are a prisoner in your own home. It very scary to go out if you are sick, weak, almost cripple to go to the store and get back home without getting shot.Even getting to the doctor office by bus is very difficult.

You guys are brilliant 🤩 xxxxx😊🌸Hello from Holtye, Sussex, England x🥦💚

Thanks beautiful couple same story as mine

Your videos are a great inspiration. More and more people are aware of the great benefits it has for health. It is not only good for our health, the most important thing, although it may not seem like it, it saves many animals, it is also good for the planet. In short, Veganism is good for everyone. Thank you very much for your excellent videos 👍👏👏 GO VEGAN 🌱🌱

Bob and Fran great interview! Fran, would you kindly expand on how to increase the adrenals. What regimen did the doctor prescribe for you to help you achieve stronger adrenals? Thank you and God bless you both.

Great video! Thank you both 💓 Yahweh bless and and keep you🙏🏼

❤ you are very inspiring

Great program ..hopefully I'll become a vegan soon

You guys look fantastic ❤

The interviewer is wrong. That guy was making a choice not to eat healthfully. I'm not sure why the interviewer kept pressing that point.

Same situation w my health insurance co. Lol

It makes me happy to see awakened humans in the middle of this unconscious society

inspiring

Skøn fortælling - super motiverende 🌷❤️

so how does one start in a whole plant food diet? can it help a liver disease get healed? i like vegetables I am not into beans and almonds. Fruits are high in fructose which I would pass. where can I learn of a balanced diet? i am 73 yrs. thank you!

The interviewer reakly likes to project his ideas!

Cute couple..am an artist and I don’t want to spend so much time cooking… I like fresh fruit in the morning and a salad with lots of fruits and greens and soup at night… no time to fuss and pretend am eating “ the old food…” I don’t care about the old food… yes I agree with that guy…2 meals a day is actually plenty… nuts and grains are kind of too heavy… once in a while maybe… to each is own really. Love and respect.

You don’t use a lot of oils in cooking. So do you eat nuts? avocados? coconuts?

How old are they?

Hello 👋 Blessings I wanted to ask about the vegan diet. It’s been 2 weeks no processed food, not fat, no sugar, no flour and now the skin and face is really dried is this normal? Or what is a balanced vengan diet?

Kool

You were kinda tough on these older folks

I also know people been on plant diet and after 15 or 10 years they had to go back to animal protein, their appearance and b vitamins levels went low. how you explain that? thanks

Grain flour is plant based right?? Can we have that??

How old are they? Bob says he's in his 9th decade, how about Fran?

Amazon 💜💜👍👍👍

Do you eat carbs?

I cannot eat most plants, no fruit, no pulses, no high-fructose vegetables or vegetables that create gas. I also cannot eat dairy products either. IBS is an uncompromising thing.

as a vegan - I am ill practically everyday - bobnfran said it's the oil I'm eating - I think they're right. Only vegsns I know that handled qualms with veganism with a legitimate answer.

Who is the doctor she saw in CA that diagnosed her with acupuncture?

💚💚💚

oat groats make my stomach hurt.

Doctors should be jailed for what they do with their prescription pads when food choice works better than the horrible meds.

They are 80+? 💪

10 miles a day???

I like you.🙂

You guys need to make a cook book for us new vegans 😊

not even a good extra virgin olive oil?

Did he say he was 90 years old!??😮

VEGANLINKED, I LOVE THIS, I REMEMBER SO TIME AGO, WAS EATING CHICKEN, SUDDENLY THIS SMELL OF FLESH PERMEATED MY SENSES, I HAVE DEVELOPED A NEED TO LEAVE MEAT ALONE COMPLETELY. I DO NOT WHERE TO START, HOW TO USE SPICES. I SEE THAT IT IS EASIER TO GO TO THE ROOM ETC. I LIVE IN BHAM, AL, THERE ARE NO REAL RESTUANTS THAT ARE STRICTLY VEGAN ONLY THEY OFFER SIDE DISHS. I LOVE ALL I'M LISTENING TO ON MEATLELSS LIVES, IT IS FOR ME. I AM AN OLDER PERSON. LET ME ADD, IF YOU DRINK YOUR REQUIRED WATER AMOUNTS YOU WILL GET UP AT NIGHT. I TESTED THIS, LESS WATER LESS PEE. SO, MY QUESTION CAN YOU RECOMMEND SOME ONE IN MY AREA. I THANK YOU IN ADVANCE. MY MOUTH IS SALIVATIONG JUST LISTENING TO THEM AND THE OTHER VIDEOS. BOB AND FRAN I TRULY ADMIRE YOUR RELATIONSHIP AND COMITMENT TO EACH OTHER.

I really wish people would stop using the word Vegan. I like whole food, plant-based much better.

Why do I feel like the interviewer is judgemental? I don't like the way he talks to them.

No you don’t advocate to others. Sorry, but it has to come from their own personal desire. Intermittent fasting is being debunked. There’s nothing wrong with organic rolled oats.
