exactly !! so true.

Josh Spiv Great! For the wife: better be moving towards vegan or else towards the door.

Situs Inversus one day at a ty

Take her veggie grill

Good luck with that...

Look into Dr.Robert Morse

Why would he government do that when they get no profit from healthy people

Tory Anne have you watched the video? They get great loss from sick people. Healthcare costs more than the military. If they could reduce that cost, they could invest in things like education or whatever that actually develops the country, not ruin it

Tory Anne I’m with you...I don’t believe governments will end meat subsidies willingly...we’ll need to build a mass movement to apply pressure

ElysiumDiary I guess you’ve never seen Vegan Gains, Jon Venus or Hench Herbivore...all three of these guys are vegan and muscular.

ElysiumDiary Here we have a brainwashed meat-eater who tries to confuse people between an unhealthy meat-and-refined-sugars and a healthy whole foods plant based diet rich in unrefined sugars.

Alexandra Brown yess

plant it up baby

Prove your claim

Plant Planet Earth How do you keep your lettuce, tomatoes, apples, oranges from going bad?? I put mine in the crisper in my refrigerator.

are you vegan tho

BetterYouBetterWorld V As all practical as I can be I have been vegan for almost 2 years.

Richard Taylor - its never too late to make a change for the better. Im 32 and ate meat my whole life. Ive been vegan for 5 months and feel so much healthier. I honestly thought I NEEDED meat for some reason... now I don't even see it as food. Good luck on your journey! Check out the vegan zombie for recipes (he's 40years old I believe and he's been vegan for most of his life) CHEERS!

I wish you the best Richard Taylor. Going vegan was the best decision of my life. 46 and my kids can't keep up with me. Running 4 miles a day. Perfect bloodwork. And a vitality that I didn't know existed. Everyone is different... But, I really like the sense of knowing that things didn't have to die for my existence. I"ts freeing if that makes any sense. I wish you the best on your journey.

spliter227 I'm going to catch up ... Good going King

I'm a vegan libertarian! I am against all subsidies!

I am libertarian and objectivist leaning and also an ethical vegan!

VegAnimation . . . This is only. a majority of the meat in this country 80 to 90 percent.

Even if it tastes good if is expensive normal people can't afford it, how is possible that a meat burger cost more than a vegan burger or 1 liter of milk is cheaper than 1 liter of plant base milk is just make nonsense

@@harg88 Totally! Oatly is 5.99 a quart and dairy is 1.99 a quart where I am. The math doesn't add up it a truly free market. It's all complete nonsense and people need to realise this. Mic makes the best thorough videos on these matters and is great at using proper scientific sources and studies.

realising how selfish, hedonistic and short-sighted you sound when trying to defend eating animal products made me cringe so much before I was vegan. it was like a psychological mirror that i was ashamed to loook into. definitely the decisive factor in changing my diet

Rather, our ancestors subsided on primarily hunting to get them by before they discovered agriculture. Going keto was the best thing Ive done in my life. But hey not knocking your diet or anything.

Cassandra Bankson and mic are sexy.

You seem like an educated gentleman. I am confused. How exactly can meat emit more greenhouse gases. I know in the logistics of transportations (bringing feed crop from farm to meat farm) that emits way more than just bringing those feed crops to the market directly. But live stocks eat plants and plants eat co2. And the conversion form plant to meat is inefficient so by default there hast to be more plants around to eat or else the cow or lamb or whatever would starve. I wonder if the passive daily activities of all those plants leads to net co2 negative or equilibrium (not including the transportation logistics). If that isn't the case I wonder how the planet survived this long. Herbivores can move plants can't. I guess that is what carnivores/omnivores are for which I guess may not apply to agriculture anyway. They may sound crass to you but I am legitimately thinking this (not trying to insult anyone; just looking for clarification). If that is the case isn't the problem then factory farming's logistical failures rather then the abstract of eating meat? Cause sustainable livestock farming has been done or thousands of years while it was localized and primal. Like "Cook I have a grassy plain. Save some for hey for the winter. And in the mean time I'll use the oxen to pull the plows." that old fashion way. Of course if every factory farm switched to "the old ways" meat will be more expensive and rarer (pun intended) but at least the negative ecological effects would be negated. Hypothetically, I could be wrong. Oh and I don't mean the old way as in "Yeah let our oxen shit in our river (drinking supply/ and potentially cause an algae bloom). I mean old ways with a modern scientific filter. Maybe insect and methane consuming bacteria farming could take off. Someone please answer. Oh yeah one last thing; hydroponics. Isn't that also a logistical nightmare? Cause you essentially distilling swaths of the earth and chemically refining it rom god knows how far away from the esembly plant only to ship it to farm that always consumes electricity and that stuff isn't cheap.

Brandon Sams are you not familiar with methane? Watch the documentary cowspiracy, if you are really interested in learning more about this. You can also start by doing simple google searches on this subject.

thx for the lead. Can I get a summery?

Brandon Sams CO2 is good for planet, Methane gas isn't.

Melvin Olaverria really good for you... I'm so glad.. Please try to continue this wonderful journey friend... . May God blesss you...

Melvin Olaverria Awesome! 👍👍 And yes, I can attest to the energy part, more energy at almost 40 than when I was in my early 20s 🤟

Great work man! Make sure to get flax/chia/hemp/walnuts daily for your omega 3 fatty acids. Eat legumes daily. You’ll stay healthy and stick with it. Much love.

Here would be an article that might help your understand what goes into animal farming: www.ecowatch.com/how-factory-farming-contributes-to-global-warming-1881690535.html (!The article doesn't have any sources linked, so don't take it at face value!)

Thanks but were is it? What is it called? On what site?

Sorry, I somehow forgot to add it. I edited my comment and here is it again: www.ecowatch.com/how-factory-farming-contributes-to-global-warming-1881690535.html

No problem. Thank you for replying.

Luigi 24 they should also warn about the health risk it carries in a similar way cigarettes do. Honestly I don't get why they don't do it to all harmful foods and drinks, like alcohol, processed sugar, oil..

ElysiumDiary and you don’t link a source to back up your ridiculous claim...

its actually a lot worse than cigarettes.

ElysiumDiary hyperbolic much? Inuit's lived very short lives??? Keep grasping at those few studies paid for by the industry it supports.... did you even watch the video? Keep up the remedial mind games so you can enjoy the taste of what you eat more than anything else.....

Shayke Speeer I wouldn't I get my beef right from the source I pay market price. One of my childhood friends and myself we go into together on one. We buy it when it's a calf October it's a butcher size. We do everything at my home. My family and I try to avoid spending as little as possible at grocery store.

@@shawndarling5855 most people don't. That's her point.

When he died in Germany, his body was sent back to Russia in a coffin-like fridge with a table on it: "Fresh oysters". I know it's anecdotal but still true.

I think he did a video on deficiency

Matt Denman if i remember correctly, Mic did create another video about land use in a vegan world versus in our current world a while back. Don’t think I’ve ever heard him speak about glyphosate though

I think it’s the one called “Why Veganism Failed in Land Use Study”. He describes the experimental design flaws of the study and what kind of land use veganism would really “consume”.

The glyphosate should accumulate in the animals as well, am I wrong?

it is like most of what they say. not only wrong but the direct opposite of the truth. the entire population of the world could be fed from an area the size of texas using modern permaculture gardening methods. these not only produce more but of much higher quality also. about half the land surface area of the earth is lost to animal agriculture the other half being mostly desert and the wilds of siberia.

I think glyphosate is a huge issue that I’d like to see addressed but I think the average person consumes more than they think they do regardless of what diet they subscribe to. It helps to eat organic but of course the stuff is in the environment already and one can’t totally avoid it unless they grew all their own food. I would think that meat contains more than the average veggie though considering the feed they eat is probably loaded with it. Again, I’d love to see a video on that.

You are very twisted. Meat is healthy and nutritional. So what if dumb animals die so humans can live. Vegans are fools, all of you.

Caroline, I feel foolish responding to someone so horrible as you but I will try. Farm animals are not dumb. They are sentient beings who want to live like you. They deserve freedom and a better life than to be housed in horrible living condition packed together like they are nothing only to meet their end in a slaughter house. Have some compassion. I have read your posts before. You are a very bitter nasty woman. It's not too late to change. Do some research. See how these commercial farm institutions treat animals. It will make you sick and cry. Please please at least try to see life through the eyes of these animals for a few seconds. Get out side of yourself. It will change your life.

Caroline S. You sound like a very unpleasant, twisted and bitter person. Please keep trolling on vegan sites: seeing comments from people like you will push tons of people towards veganism.

Caroline Stevens animals aren't being killed so we can live...we can live without meat....next....

Natalie, so what do you want, all the animals to be released running in the streets pooping on everything dying of starvation? We humans gave them life for awhile and then it's time for them to give back. They are stunned before execution. They don't feel a thing. You vegans need to stop worrying about animals.Worry about your own health issues caused by a lousy vegan diet. Meat is king of foods. It always will be. Vegans have way too much time on their hands. I'm beginning to think most don't work. How far do food stamps stretch on a vegan diet?

Matthew Brosnan Interesting though 🤔

It's also one of the most widely available and affordable alternatives, so I guess an obvious target for criticism.

jero pons thanks Jero. Difficult enough to take an extra day and I hate releasing more than 7 days apart. Kills me. Honesty it was also the statistics exam for my Masters in Public Health that delayed it. Just happy that David was so quick to the draw.

Mic the Vegan Nevertheless you always deliver the best content! It's better to take a few extra days, if needed, and make an awesome super complete video than to release one quick but not so good. Good look with the exams, I'm sure you've trained enough with the tons of studies and statistics you read to do these videos haha

The Pleasure Trap by Doug Lisle and Alan Goldhamer and Brain Over Binge by Kathryn Hansen

What are your macronutrient ratios like? I had a similar problem eating a low fat high carb vegan diet, feeling generally unsatisfied with my food and always a little hungry. I've started adding some plant-based fats (avocados, nuts, and seeds) to my meals recently and my satisfaction after a meal has shot up, plus my need to snack constantly has waned. Perhaps adding some whole food plant based fats could help? I'm no expert on the matter, of course, and I've only just started eating this way after watching some videos by Milo on his Healthy Crazy Cool KZfaq channel. Sorry for the long reply but I hope it may help in some way. :)

Sam Tier I've been trying this way of eating since February, and I have tried multiple things, I think it's a bit deeper than just not getting enough whole food fats. It's more of a. Mind over matter issue I think..... I don't know.... Anyways thank you very much for the suggestions and I will keep them in mind thank uou

Cecilia Warfield Maybe you are not getting sufficient calories when you eat vegan food? Try to plot your foods into chronometer to see your caloric intake and your macros.

Food addiction is huge....even if it's Healthy foods. You'll find out if you go on a Fast.

Tevž Globokar this fucking ideology better never get to eastern europe need all of the retarded vegans to die out of their own sterilization so we can be the last ones left

You're so quick!!

+Barry Maskell The meat is still subsidized in other ways - Water, the huge amount of it required, whether they are paying for it or not it doesn't matter - Destruction of the eco-system - Ecoli outbreaks that government has to deal with - Smog and the associated respiratory costs(you seen LA?) etc

+Barry Also multiple studies have found that waste is still high in meat based diet. Meat eater still need vegetables like lettuce. link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10584-014-1169-1%EF%BB%BF Also for one of your citations: "Meat and Livestock Australia, the nation's peak research and development body for the sheep and cattle industry, co-funded the study and has embraced the results." Even that study on methane emission doesn't deny it...It still says 12 million ton of methane is released. Also the last link. "British-bred beef and lamb to meat substitutes imported from abroad such as tofu and Quorn would increase the amount of land cultivated, raising the risk of forests being destroyed." Depends heavily on the kind of farming. Meateater diet require around the same or even more..Most of our food is fed to the cows and other livestock. Maybe revitalizing the already land used for cows and others would be much better idea . news.cornell.edu/stories/1997/08/us-could-feed-800-million-people-grain-livestock-eat

Also miss, you run the risk of many health complications with a vegan diet.

Unfortunately, the extra health care costs associated with eating meat don't make up for the occasional bargain.

It's bullshit.
