  1. I feel sorry for the vegans that are growing up swearing this is bad news.

  2. When it first happened to me I was 29. I got stuck mid sentence talking to my neighbour. It was the first moment of the rest of my life when I found out I'd forgotten every name of everything. I had to start relearning them all over again and it took me so long. I couldn't even remember the name of a can of beans, a vegetable, a piece of fruit. The fact is if supermarkets didn't exist I would have been incapable of shopping for myself. It was horrific. Now forty years later I can get by but I still can't remember people's names or places. Not even the next suburb or my last address. It can be so embarrassing at times. What happened? I had a epileptic seizure.

  3. The one thing this guy never mentioned, the whole truth about what kills is sugar. It's what causes cholesterol to try to save the arteries. It's what causes the blockages in the first place. Type 2 is the beginning and it often turns to heart disease. Did your book tell you this?

  4. I can't help it, I had to smile when he called them jellies. My mind looked at a supermarket type jelly. Imagine that swimming around in the sea.

  5.  @SayYourSomething  When I lived in London (a long time ago) they delivered milk in glass bottles with aluminium foil lids. "Blue Tits" very small birds would attack the lids until they'd made a hole in them while still on the doorstep and steal the cream off the top of the milk for as long as they could from the earliest chance. Back then, the milk was delivered at about five am. I'd be surprised if milk is delivered in glass bottles now so they won't get the chance anymore. I can't imagine how they ever knew how to do it but they all did it. Very clever little birds, no bigger than sparrows.

  6. White man have done it everywhere in the world, all the American continent, Australia, Africa to mention but half the world. I'm not saying it's right but it happened.

  8. Bloody thieves.

  9.  @fabiotacconi9230  When babies are hungry and mothers are dead fathers will do anything to keep their children alive. All fathers, from any animal.

  10. Women that go on a vegan diet often get it because they add more sugar and carbs to their food. This is a shock to the system. Look out.

  11. Cooking furmes and gasses. When one doesn't open the windows or have somewhere to let the cooking fumes out.

  12. When the population of the world stop breeding like rabbits we might have a chance. And living on grain isn't the answer.

  13. I sure hope these countries see this program and do something about this.

  14. Whole grains, fibrous fruits etc. will only pass through you leaving just the sugar behind. Fibre isn't worth the money you pay.

  15. Sounds to me like you're trying to start another war.

  16. If all creatures didn't feel pain and love and caring, we and they wouldn't exist.

  17. At last. People who know the truth.

  18. Lipids are money making dangerous drug that should never be on the market. We need our cholesterol. No too many doctors will tell you to cut back on sugar instead.

  19.  @thorpeaaron1110  Now China is at it.

  20. IF, you have to keep consistent sleeping hours, then how can it be "natural" hormonal system? It doesn't matter what I do, I have a 25 hour day/night period and it seems there's nothing I'm able to do about it. My life slips from night to day all the time slowly slipping round the clock.

  21. The FACT is: IF you don't need them, you kill them off, they're a waste of space.

  22. I loved it. Thank you.

  23. I had my gall bladder removed because it wasn't getting bile. That's the usual cause. Bile is made by cholesterol. Be careful what you're told. Gallstones aren't made from cholesterol.

  24. This whole program was totally wrong. It's sugar that does the damage, not cholesterol. It's like blaming the fire brigade for starting the fire.

  25. Personally, I would like to buried without a funeral and a box. With a tree seed to grow over me so something will me useful as I rot the tree will grow and I will be of use instead of laying in a fake bed for a thousand years looking pretty.

  26. You should never assume anything. We have for thousands of years assumed that we were at the centre of the universe.

  27.  @Parker_Miller_M.S.  BOLLOCKS. I've eaten no fibre in 35 years and I'm 73. I suffer no illnesses and no pain at all. So go back to med school and learn a bit more. BTW. My A1c is 4.2

  28.  @Parker_Miller_M.S.  Well my heart is in fine condition and so are my arteries. Vegans can argue the toss over their health too and say they have fine health, but it won't last. The cholesterol isn't sufficient. Most vegans only survive a couple of years before eating a more sufficient diet. They wake up. The women when their periods stop and the men because they can't raise one.
    1
  29.  @Parker_Miller_M.S.  Yes, right. It strikes me as amusing that all the vegan doctors that used to spend so much time praising the subject on the net, either disappeared or died off. There aren't many left. Only one or two and they are horribly religious.

  30.  @parkchimmin7913  Sorry, don't know that word.

  31.  @parkchimmin7913  If you mean lactose intolerant, I'm lactose intolerant and that doesn't stop me from consuming other things like butter and cream. Even cheese has no lactose in it.

  32. There's a story Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride tells about a couple who died and a tree was planted in honor of them. A long time later the tree was dug up and they found the roots had taken the shape of the couple that were buried there. Yes, even trees eat people, you can't get away from it. If that tree had been a fruit tree you might have been eating that couple.

  33. Singapore is surrounded by water. Surely it would be easier to desalinise that than take poop out of the sewage. Is that too simple?

  34. You're right of course, avocados are dangerous, no doubt about that.

  35. Who's asking for a God? A vaccine that kills off everything? You really are joking.

  36. No such thing.

  37. Well, I consider myself lucky. I haven't had an infection of any sort since I was about twenty-five and I'm now seventy. I now fear the next one because because it may kill me.

  38. He never mentioned how dangerous sugar and carbohydrates are. That's what causes all the problems.

  39. It looks like it's about 30 Years old. It's really out of date.

  40. I wouldn't mind a couple of them to clean my kitchen floor.

  41. I haven't had an ice cream in forty years and I live in Australia. 😣😣🙄🙄 Perhaps it's not appealing to us all.

  42. How do you know it's good to have a variety? Why do you think it's wise to have such a variety?

  43. There's only a certian amount of water and land. If you keep building and living right on the edge of the land it's going to disappear while there is always going to be volcanoes all over the world making more land but you can't live on it yet. We must have twenty live volcanoes now spouting more land all the time. We can't have it all. If you're going to keep building land, where's the water going to go?

  44. Just because you know the names of these creatures in your digestion, it doesn't mean you know why they're there. Stop playing games with people's digestion.

  45. Absolutely beautiful, tasty and healthy food. Really good for vegans 😏

  46.  @dotwarner17  I can think of a few animals and birds that drink cows milk. Human's are not the only ones. 😍

  47.  @Parker_Miller_M.S.  And their glucose levels and weight? What are these wonderful people eating? What's more are these high LDL levels killing them, Or are you putting them on drugs anyway.
    1
  48. @ Work out what causes LDL and you'll have the answer to all the world's problems.

  49. This is just a pack of lies to sell drugs. Statins never saved anyone, and people didn't die from cholesterol before statins were invented. They're just a billion dollar market for the drug company.
    1
  50.  @SarinByFar  Okay, you believe what you like. Sugar is the cause of most heart attacks as most are caused by pre-diabetes, which most people have these days. Statins have been around for near fifty years and how many people have they saved? A hundred years ago, people didn't die at all from heart disease. Explain that.

  51. Our body makes cholesterol. We really need it and this story is old and out of date. He never mentioned sugar and carbs which is the reason that our arteries get blocked in the first place. It's like blaming the fire brigade for starting the fires.

  52. Gas is the only way a chef will work. You can't cook on an electric stove.
    1
  53. It's the question he did not answer. Sugar does the damage and it's the cholesterol that tries desperately to repair it. It's the sugar that should be stopped, not cholesterol. Our body doesn't make stuff to kill us.

  54. @ A normal glucose level. You'll find their cholesterol won't be a problem either.
    1
  55.  @Parker_Miller_M.S.  Really. Is that proof or ancient presumption? It sounds like a thing that drug companies might have told. Statin makers perhaps.

  56. If you made this video you should know saturated fats are in all fats and oils.

  57.  @thenovicenovelist  Good one!

  58. How much carbs does she consume, sugars are what does the damage and blocks the arteries. Notice he never mentioned that.
    1
  59.  @kaviraj-539  Sugar. Type 2 diabetes, heart disease. blindness. People lose their legs because the arteries and veins are blocked, they lose their kidneys, and so on and on. it's the worst product on the market and it's in everything.
    1
  60. @ Have it your way. It's cholesterol that desperately tries to clean up the mess in the arteries that is caused by carbs. I will grant you, you can consume some carbs but it's the limit that you have to be careful of. Everything is made of carbs even vegetables. Everything except animal products.
    1
  61. @ Atherosclerosis can be found is six month old babies. No one ever mentions that either. Cholesterol is the ambulance that comes to the damage that has already been done. If the damage is too bad to be repaired that's when it's found at the disaster area.

  62. I'll answer your question. If you stop eating for a few days, then you just eat animal products for a couple of weeks. Your digestion is completely free of anything that can hurt you. Then you begin all over again trying to kill yourself with plant matter. During the time you've only been eating meat and animal products, you've completely cleaned out your digestive system. It's now happy.

  63. Try it before you eat someone else's poop. It works.

  64.  @johnnyearp52  Me. You only have to try, it won't kill you.

  65. Seed oils and sugar are deadly. Cholesterol never killed anyone unless they were on oils and sugar.

  66. If you've had a leg cut off and forget it's been done, then you try to get out of bed normally, you soon realize you've worked up.

  67. Why are bottles only used for beer and wines, alcoholic drinks? Is it so soft drinks can sell so cheaply? We used to send our milk bottles back to be washed and refilled. I'll pay more to have my drinks and milk arrive in glass.

  68. People have forgotten what it was like without plastic. It really wasn't that long ago. Now we're drowning in it.

  69. You've removed animals from the land to grow this stuff all over the world, especially the Americas now and the animals are getting the blam for it. This stuff is even being used for fillings in medication now. It's being used used to feed animals instead of grass and it's making them sick, which is also making meat eaters sick.

  70. There's something horribly wrong with your maths if you think 60% of that time is used working the soil on farms as agriculturists.
    1
  71. Fact is you're paid to make money for drug companies and the one dangerous thing in the human body you didn't mention is sugar. THAT IS THE KILLER. Cholesterol remains perfectly healthy until begins to block the system.

  72. You instantly shot your mouth off by saying all these things you needed for gut bacteria was an army of foods MINUS MEAT AND OTHER ANIMAL PRODUCTS. This is because they don't harm us.
