One of those tiny fruit pies for a dollar in the supermarket are about 450 calories. This usually is not enough for anyone to eat. They might go and eat 2 or 3 more of those, and a hamburger plus the rest of that meal. That dinner desert episode is already more than 2k calories. Look at all the food you get to eat 6 lb. on that half of water melon for 600 calories. As far as I'm concerned that melon is a better deal calorie wise.
Love your vids, very educational, love your smile and your accent. Suscribed. Sharing you on my facebook. Thanx, Happy Holidays from another vegan. Don't ever stop ; )
haha funny video. didnt know you were an elite athlete! In what sports? And im really interested in how much fruit cost in Aus.. Ofc it depends on what fruits and all but would you mind giving an example of the fruits you buy, how much and what it costs? Cos here in sweden a lot of the fruit you eat over there are freakin expensive here. I could just eat bananas and my wallet would feel fine but i would get seriously tired of the bananataste after a while.
I do not understand all this crap about body type and blood type diet. It is such nonsense. I also think it's an excuse to not take full responsibility for your own health. You are what you eat. Thank you This is Great!
@bluemoon455 thank you ... That's one of my pet peeves. Another one is I had a supervisor that would leave messages and always used the spelling of 'there' for there, their, and they're. It drove me nuts.
Here is my objective answer, why the fuck would i want to eat 40 bananas or a whole water melon a day LIKE YOU PROMOTE to get my protein in-take. Watch BBC 2 "Tribes" Indigenous rain forest tribe living on a MIXED diet including fish, turtle, wild boar etc, fuck me they were in great health and shape, no bollox talking about meat is putrified, toxic waste. Read what Julien Absalon eats, fucking sick on a mtb and would kill most roadies, if you want to talk about elite athletes.
serious question that i would like answering from @durianrider himself: I watched your vid on where you get you're protein, and it didnt answer anything. where do you get your protein from? what are your sources of amino acids? (according to westwest213LA, Im a minority in knowing what they are!) Im curious, if you already have a vid that defines specifics, then link me. if not, please answer my questions.
No offense Durian, but I've been raw vegan for 10 years and Fruitarian about 3 of those last 10. I walk 8 to 10 miles a day as a postman and I do Bikram Yoga about 3 days a week. I've never had nor do I imagine the need to count calories. I find it a waste of time and energy.
Durianrider is the only one that has posted his blood results,all other so called gurus have not!duriuanrider please help spread the world about these monks,
Please please people look up bodybuddha.co.uk
They cure lots of illness like diabetes and Lupus and only live on donations, they are Buddhists and one named John Tao is a genius!why are doctors not so good?. They cured two friends of mine!that had no hope...
@SarahJ83 That is not true. In fact there are a lot of research where shows how people with any kind of diabetes have cure themself turning into a raw plant /fruit base diet. Don´t think that the manufactured sugar is the same sugar the fruits contain, that is a huge lie!!!.
@irlumir not all so called 'research' is dependable. I have people in my family who have blood sugar problems and I know what fruit does to their system and yes I already know that manufactured sugar is different and hard on the body, as is anything that is manufactured, the body doesn't know how to handle it, that's kinda a no brainer.
@SarahJ83 There is a cure to diabetes, people get cured by just changing their diet and then they can eat all the fruit they want. There are some people med that are publishing this info, where they have found that with greens and some plant they can regenerate the body (of course if you want to get your body clean and regenerated you can not eat anything cooked) please do the research and good luck i hope you can help your family. Best regards.
@SarahJ83 think that people like me or like a bunch of guys who made videos like this one aren not getting any reward for their wasted time. We do this because we use to eat and live according the "standar" and we realize, after a lot of force of will and time, that there is something better, that we humans are better than what we are thougth to be on this society. That is why we are trying to spread the word, is not for some foolish ego drama where i want to have the reason or something xD
@irlumir your right. I really have no right to argue anything with you as you are simply posting trying to share something that you truly believe in. I don't agree completely with you but if nothing else videos like this have encouraged me to honestly think about what I'm eating and feeding to my kids. Thank you for the mental exercise and I will leave you alone now.
@irlumir Interesting. There's a story paleos are pushing that type 2 diabetes arises from insulin resistance, and that insulin resistance cannot be cured and can only be managed by limiting one's (non-fiber) carb intake to 50 g / day or less, so your body is forced to use fat as energy, and fat, unlike carbs, does not require insulin to be used as energy.
Any one that says you need meat for protein doesn't understand the basic principles of biology and have never heard of amino acids. It's usually the ignorant ones that give off knee jerk responses.
@westwest213LA Really? Basic principles of biology eh? If it is so biologically sensical to consume only these amino acids, try feeding a baby only fruits. No mothers milk, no calcium or protein fortified supplements. Just fruit Actually don't, because he/she will probably die.
@thespecter2 LOL mother milk is escencial for the kids, it barely have protein, if you don´t believe me go and google the composition of mother milk. You have to be a moron to not feed a baby with mother milk!. Other think is the shit that people is selling as cow milk. (that barely hace calcium on it) For you to know there are hundreads of fruits and greens that have more calcium than milk. You truly don´t understand how the bio works. But that don´t matter to me. Go and eat shit xD!
@irlumir Derp. De derp. I don't understand bio? I am a biochemistry major, i probably have a better understanding of biology than you can dream of. And physical anthropology, which demonstrates how humans survived throughout time which includes how and what they ate. And no one ever said anyone ate shit. Go eat the leaves off of a tree like your ape ancestors, your brain seems no more advanced.
@thespecter2 if you have a biochemeistry major you surely are not thinking. For example, the component industry used to cristalize the sugar cause in the body the loss of calcium, that is why people get theeth problems. wheat have opioid peptides wich are addicted and behave like morphine on the brain. If you do a blood test with a person who has eat any cooked food it will leukocytes wich are the trash trucks of the body, that not happend with raw food. I recommend you to go and study more.
@irlumir The content of most of your message is irrelevant to what I was saying. I am not sure we are on the same page. What about wheat? And trash trucks of the body? We started cooking food thousands of years ago for a reason.
@thespecter2 yea, there is a reason and Einstein said it : “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe.” I am sure that will satisfied your interrogation xD.
i live in canada and its freezing here like 8 months out of the year. as a vegan that just wouldnt work for me. i need warm, hot, stuff, unless you have any alternatives that im not aware of. the raw diet will work in the summer. there's more fruit/veg variety but not winter.
@nasim1473 That isn't a useful argument because one, you don't live outside and two, there's something called a heater. Your body will produce heat when you have calories to burn.
Read Nutrition and Physical Degeneration by Weston A. Price!
Also read Pottenger's Cats: A Study in Nutrition by Francis M. Pottenger, Jr.! Those two books should open anybody up to the truth of nutrition; that there is No one way on eating and certainly being a vegan will NOT define health for each and every one! I suggest reading The Metabolic Typing Diet by William Wolcott for more info on individualizing your OWN diet. Also read anything from Paul Chek…
god made the hard shell to we can put our face into itn eat everything. no plates. may b no spoon...break it more down n u can eat with ur teeth,, but i like ur method too makes me wanna get watermellon in evening n eat like that
I want to see a fruitarian that doesn't do endurance type activities. One that lifts weights and sprints will prove that fruitarians can be muscular and lean.
Look at my channel. I'm a fruitarian, and I don't binge eat on fruit like @durianriders nor do I measure my calories in a day. I eat once every 24 hours until I'm full (look up MMA Vegetarian Hershel Walker Diet) except I eat nothing but fruits in that time period. Look up the benefits of fasting in relationship to growth hormone to understand where I am coming from. For example today I ate 8 apples and that was it (which only cost me 5.20$ and is approximately 360 calories)
Umm I am a fruitarian (just apples oranges and bananas) and actually I am eating less and less. Giving me a label, despite the fact you don't know me, is purely childish.
I have more muscle that you do and I am a much more versatile athlete (watch my youtube videos). Again I recommend you look up intermittent fasting and the relationship between glucose/insulin and growth hormone. While your ignorance is somewhat amusing and the advice you give is ridiculous and dangerous
btw @durianriders 5.20$ a day comes to about 1900$ on food a year, but like I mentioned I am eating less and less and spending less and less so my yearly total is shrinking. If you want to be a walking garbage can addicted to plants damaging your kidneys because you have a fixation seeing clear urine go for it, my problem is when you give this absurd advice to other people in the name of good health. Again your ignorance does no service to anybody, do some research on fasting and growth hormone
Durianrider, if youre happy with your diet, stick with it. But it fails in the long run because people get 1) Anemic 2) Depressed 3) Insulin Resistance 4) orthorexia 5) Social isolation 6) Social disrupt (life will center itself to food) 7) Cravings in long run These symptoms won't show up in short term and usualy come within 5-15 years. But the good news is, you can still achieve great health as a vegan. Just get carbohydrates, get good fats and get your vegetables.
@fourp1ay Lance doesn't eat much meat, Micheal ramussen is a vegetarian and maybe a vegan I'm not sure (he's lactose intolerent I've heard so he must not eat dairy), Levi leipheimer is a vegetarian. Not really a cyclist I guess but triathlete dave scott was a vegan when he won all his hawaii ironman!
There's many other cyclist who are vegetarian or even vegan.
Protein freaks should know that you just need to get "enough" of all the essential amino acids on a pretty much daily basis but after "enough" the rest of your calories are better coming from carbs given that fresh veg and fruit has all the anti-oxidants and other things needed for health. Occasional whole bugs/grabs mixed in make up for anything else deficient. 10% protein more than enough for most people.
Sorry, an imbalanced diet if there ever was one. Too many carbs and not much fat or protein. I see so many vegans that are thin as a stick, muscle must have went somewhere.
@imnotabear Uh, was carl Juicing? and I do not mean in the Vegan manner. I think that some people will get away with the vegan lifestyle, most will see their health suffer.
@tickyul Carl was one of the most successful athletes ever and looks the picture of health today. He's articulate and humble as well. You could learn more about him and other vegan athletes or just hold on to your prejudices it doesn't matter to me.
@imnotabear The science of nutrition is what guides my views. Like I have stated before, SOME people will do fine on a Vegan diet, but most will eventually have problems. It has more to do with human nutritional requirements than FEELINGS. The biological availabilty nutrients in animal products is the so much higher than that in on animal sources.
@00rpc It doesnt take long to be smashing our best times, as long as we are doing raw vegan the RIGHT way ie: low fat, high carb, over 3000+ cals a day, lots a water so we are piss'n clear at least 10 times a day, unlimited sleep and rest and good training partners/programme.
oh my god, another spammer or is it the one spammer with a different name but still no face or videos of their own..
i DONT GET ENOUGH PROTEIN! how on earth am i running marathons, winning 24hr mountain bike races or cycling around the world as a raw vegan!
yesterday i got over 150grams of protein and that is WAY too much protein! I ate some raw soaked grains for a youtube vid. Too much protein I reckon, it just slows digestion more than it has too.
While their is protein in grains and nuts, their is far less per poundage than in meat. Also, the protein in these sources is of a different makeup and is less digestible than that in meat. If you eat a grass-fed, pasture-raised steak you will be getting a source of healthy protien that is low in saturated fat and high in healthy omega-3's, as well as B12. In your next doctor's visit, do a blood test. You will likely find that you are dangerously low in B12 and send the doctor into fits.
@spellwing777 Do not even try with the Vegans, it is not just a way of eating, it is a cult. I mean have you looked at a lot of pictures of Vegans, they are wasting away. It is hard for them to maintain a sturdy body on a diet of fruits and veggies. I bet most "SANE" vegans cheat early and often. Ciao!
Balance is the key. And for some, that balance is achieved by eating low protein... for others, more protein.
Each human's body functions on a different combination of foods/types of foods. It's impossible for one person to declare "the ideal diet" for any other person.
I'm a 100% raw/live food vegan, but I see no value in telling everyone else they must follow MY path.
@DauntlessDiva A certain level of protein is needed for tissue growth and repair. I see that a lot of Vegans have missed this point...just look at pictures of them. And the Raw fooders who only eat fruits and veggies are usually the worst off, not much muscle left on them.
Calories don't make any sense. But FRUIT does. Calories are energy - but it has nothing to do with the metabolism.
Eat lots of fruit - but when you base it off calories - you get a warped result.
People eat chocolate bars... but they don't give them any CALORIES... because chocolate bars don't have any REAL ...LIVING ENERGY.
We no doubt need living food to sustain metabolism - but how much does the metabolism need every day? you need to be your own scientist - but calories won't tell you.
@durianriders - Second that! Stuff yourself with a variety of fruits and vegtables so that you have the energy to live and thrive ... I guarantee you that you will cover the bodys need for nutrition.
@unclegus Your post is a sign that the diet you are eating has effected your thought process. SEE....."calories don't make any sense". I think you should rethink that one, or maybe have your health checked.
@unclegus Uh, ok you lost me, I guess I better brush up on my Art Bell listening. but you go ahead fella, keep it up if it is working good for you, I will stick with what works for me.
@tickyul - Art Bell listening? You don't even know what I do or what I eat - I am just saying calories don't make sense because the human body oxidises food differently than pure heat does.
@tickyul - Diet may effect the way you think. Because it could effect how much you are 'in the moment'.
I don't see calorie-bombs have much to do with the body. Fat produces 4x the heat than Simple Sugar - but that doesn't mean that the body oxidises food like a calori bomb does.
When studying the human body and its diet - we would be better off examining the structure of the animal - rather than the heat of food.
Living Food is made up of electricity and radiations from the sun. See?
I am going to buy 80/10/10 like you recommend. I want to see it for myself. I have heard T Colin Campbell's talk and it is interesting, however I have my doubts when I hear the critics, who make sense just as much.
1. human mothers breastmilk is around 5-7% protein in terms of calories. this is when we are growing our fastest of our life. fruit is the same % of calories ie 5-7%.
2. i get between 30g and 140g of RAW LIVE AMINO ACID PROTEIN per day depending on what raw plant foods im eating. if im riding 500km that day, im eating more the day before, during and after.
3. how much protein do we need? according to the china study its optimum at 5% of total calories. same with UN and WHO. fruit is the best.
regardless of your caloric intake being fullfield by fruits/vegan lifestyle, you still didn't answer the question about your food being protein deficient. You just questioned people who asks you this question about if they knew how much calories they were eating. I would like to know if you have answers to the following 1) how much protein are you actually getting from your diet 2) is it enough 3) accroding to you how much protein should an adult male get in a day
and heck, i ran an ultra marathon 56k trail race 2 weeks ago and had peeps tell me they couldnt do raw vegan cos they wouldnt get enough protein and im like 'blubber boy, how the fcuk did i just run for 8 hours on my monkey diet if i wasnt getting enough protein? how can i be vegan for 8 years and be training with world class runners and cyclists if wasnt gett'n enough protein?
and blubber boy, i aint on drugs either..
burn the blubber, go vegan and get ripped naturally!
Why would you call me blubber boy? I was just asking you an honest question. I am actually inspired by you! Why is questioning on here taken as criticism? I didn't say that you weren't getting protein. I was just asking how much are you getting!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
what the fuck do calories have to do with protein if i may ask?
i was vegaterian and I developed protien DEFICENCY
all I did was count calories because I did not know that you NEED protein,but I ate normal vegetarian lifestile fot two years and I can tell you,protein deficiency is no fun
people,EAT ANIMAL PRODUCTS SUCH AS DAIRY AND LOTS OF MEAT, you need them!Ive warned you,and all of those fruits and vegtables can make you diabetic and hyper active(as is clearly the case with this person)
I get diabetes from too much fats and white sugars, and meat itself.
Did you come on here just to lie or something? Seriously man, the next person I see hyperactive, maybe I'll go assuming them being raw vegan, and get socked in the face. LOL
I did not come on here to lie, I just happened to stumble across this video and I just HAD to say something, honestly I dont care what you fruit freaks do with your body, eating 60 bananas a day and thinking that thats better for your body than 'refiend white sugar' its not!! simply cause youl get diabeties from both!! sugar overload!! this is purely scientific and Im not going in to that I am just sharing my personal experience to everyone who has been thinking of doing this to themselves-
with this diet you WILL develope some type of protein deficiency, and your body will be breaking down alot of muscle and you wont even be able to feel that because youre super super hyper (bloodsugar levels are peeking so your brain is high on serotine)
cause your like 'feeling good' when as am matter of fact your body is breaking down muscle. (you need so much protein a day, that fruit and vegetables wont be able to cut it and if they do, thats WAAY to much sugar overload for you)-dont do it
This is the type of comment this video is responding too. He's asking you: "HOW MUCH PROTEIN". You just said "you need so much protein a day". And he's pointing out that you don't have an answer.
Ya seeeeee!!!!!!!
Harley, ACEBAKER and I are NOT losing weight. = muscle is NOT breaking down. Same with gorillas.
look. I did not want to go in to that, simply because its not a hard question and I am not google, but you need around 0.8 gr of protien per kg on a normal day and sportpeople need arond 1.5-2 gr of protien per kg per day. not just aminoacid, complete protein.
so that means that 40 gr of protein in a day is more than enough for me on a normal day.
is that what you meant? or is what you mean that you have been counting your
amino acid intake every day and that 60 bananas really do provide enough amino acid, cause even if they did it would be way, way, WAYYY to much sugar overload.
Ok. That's about how much I get - 40 grams. A few seeds/nuts, 2 heads of lettuce, and fruit the rest of the time = right around 40 grams. It works out perfectly..... by no coincidence.
who cares how much fruit u eat, u have no muscle bro, you would be better with some muscle, to get that u need to stop eating like u do, untill then enjoy thinking about food all day u seem to have that down
And its 30 BANANAS! But even that's too much (3000 calories). The average person only needs 2000. And we also eat veggies and a small amount of nuts. That's the way alot of animals eat. NO animal eats cooked meat in a refined bun with ketchup.
@andriante You of all people should post here often, maybe you will get through to some of the Vegancult members. You see a few cases where the Vegans say that they feel great and healthy, but the soft underbelly of this cult has a lot of sick people who are just hanging on because they have been brainwashed. Ciao!
It is incredible that this post has been rated down when it is pretty serious. Atleast the guy who rated it down can not proove otherwise=fanatic retard.
I couldent find anything to back up what he says in that video. Neither could any of the vegan pro ppl. He is just talking alot of bull about enzyms being converted into amino acids in the human body, a prosess we are not abel to do with all kinds of amino acids (the essentials one)
It doesnt need to be ' backed up' its his own experience, you either believe it or you dont. I know for a fact hes telling the truth because it mirrors my own Life experience.
i dont eat ANY animal products and im 6ft 180 lbs of solid muscle and im very strong, im obviously getting LOTS of high quality amino acids from somewhere.
i can bench press 225 lbs for 8 reps and i only work out around 1x per week. You are a Moron
Did you actually get to be 180 pounds by eating only fruits and greens like this guy does? I tried this guy's diet and a regular vegan diet and I lost too much body fat but I think I kept all my muscle ('6 1' 145 pounds). It's made me more functional doing a diet like this guys, however I'm now very underweight. Am I suppose to stay on this diet long enough to start gaining?
225 lbs 8 reps aint much. And I never said u couldent get any results at all, just that it would be hard to get optimal ones. This is based in statistical facts about the progress to groups of ppl eating different amounts of proteins. U cant argue away from that.
U are the moron whom does not really read what i write. And the way u feel about all the energy and stuff.. Well the excagt same things is said by many atkins ppl for instance. (ppl who ONLY consume fat and proteins)
1: I cant see ur logic at all. Unless ur extremely strong there is little that can tell wether u get optimal results or not. .Except from the studys about athletes and protein eating.. Through neuromuscular adaption i bet i could get ppl to rep 225x8 from eating chockolate, but that is besides the point. U are in good shape. Ur arguments are so extremely floud it is unbealivabel.
Do u train ur whole body by the way? The LEGS for instance? If u dont u dont need as much proteins as otherwise.
My Logic is that im Obviously getting great high quality Amino Acids to build solid muscle and develop Strength on a Raw Vegan Diet.
NO ONE can say im weak, especially since i only workout for 30 mins 1 day per week. and i can Bench press 225 lbs for 8 reps and i Weigh a very Healthy Muscular 180 lbs.
Face it, your arguement that a Raw Vegan Diet is not healthy and cant build strength is totally False. You Obviously know NOTHING about Nutrition
The ONLY reason i mentioned how Strong i am is to totally and completely take away the Asinine Childish Argument often stated by ' meat heads' like yourself that claim that Vegans are weak, Frail and have very little strength.
THATS THE ONLY REASON I MENTIONED IT, so now that ive taken that myth and destroyed, as millions of other Raw vegans have also done.
whats your issue and your problem ? Why are you here commenting on this video talkin like a Meat head ?
@faquarl08 You are right, just look at the results. If this process of enzymes being converted into aminos was happening, the walking skeleton vegans would be all jacked up and burly.
@mctradewind Well, he is low in fat and has an ok build. I wonder how he would stack up against a person of similar build who eats meat. I must say again, it is not just the strength and build that could be severly lacking in vegans, but, nutritionally a vegan diet is imbalanced due to the fact that it avoids the benefits of meat, eggs and dairy.
ancients hunted. I like this raw eating idea. Im considering it but don't bring untrue arguments. As a matter of fact we first hunted and then invented agriculture.
What if u were born in the artic, in some tribe and all u have is whales and seals. What do you then? starve? When I see raw meat, my body craves it, it naturally wants to eat it, its appealing. I did not choose to do that. Yes in excess meat is bad, but in moderation is good for ya, we just have to be appreciative of what it takes to get it. Donte be so close minded because we are NOT only vegetarians, although some people make that choice and I respect it, you still kill plants to eat though.
I kill plants to eat because that is what I was designed for. Humans invented the technologies to hunt and then dispersed out of their optimal habitats to live the hunting lifestyle. I'm sorry if I appear close minded but I can't respect people who pay others to incarcerate, torture and slaughter other animals. Your preference for meat is only a trained thing, not a natural thing. Please explore this further and maybe you will find a new, pleasant diet.
How do you know we are not designed to eat meat, that's what I don't understand. I agree with u. I think our society has become unaware of the cruelty that goes behind meat production plus the pollution it creates. I think our whole civilization has been built in excess that's why we are destroying nature, etc. Yet, if your body can handle eating meat is because you can do it. I try to buy organic meat and range free eggs, etc. You cant disrespect people for being ignorant in the matter.
Fruity felicitations dehountinge. Although I get a little robust in my comments now and again, please don't think that they come from a place of disrespect. In my 50 years, I've gained enough experience of diet to know that everyone can live a much happier life as a vegan, with improved health, energy and connectedness with all creatures. I believe that the world would be a better place if we all went down the vegan path. Most people are caught up in traditional eating patterns which go back to
when man began tool use and later agriculture. We are Great Apes and, apart from Chimps, which on rare occasions eat meat, no others do it. I'm through with YT arguments on this matter. People can write all the hateful stuff they like about vegans and the joy they take in being cruel. If they're lucky, they'll find a way out of the dark place which they inhabit and become vegans one day. Until then I'll follow my path and maybe inspire others to become vegans too. Good luck on your journey.
What you'll notice is 99% of those who get on here and Rail against Eating Raw Vegan, are those that have NEVER bothered to at least try it for 1 week on their own.
Instead they will argue ' intellectually' by constant Analysis of every minute detail on ultra specifics, Yet totally miss the Huge core pieces, the fundamental principles .
The reason most people are Against this way of Eating is Obviously many years of BRAINWASHING.
Its an Obvious character or Mental deficiency of Human Nature i suppose.
But it doesnt matter if the topic is Politics , Religion, or yep even Food.
Most People will Defend to the Death whats Popular, regardless if its right or wrong, could be Benefiting or Destroying them , it simply doesnt matter.
MOST people only have 1 single criteria for what they practice and advocate in their Entire lives , which is
If for the Last hundred years or so the Public education system, magazines, TV shows , News etc. around the world taught everyone that eating Raw Vegan was Best
and you now were here telling everyone that Eating meat was best and whats Natural, you would be getting the SAME criticism from the SAME people here, only their position would have changed because
theyd have the SAME Mental program running in their brains to ' defend whats popular no matter what '
I agree with your points. YouTube has many vids about horrendous cruelty to animals which is all part of the meat industry and what do we see written under it all the time? People carrying on like "that made me hungry" or "I like bacon". They have to, because they're full of deep down guilt. Guys who beat animals in factory farms have to otherwise they'd have to relate to the animal and face the reality of what they're doing. Nazis did in Auschwitz, Japanese soldiers did in Changi.
People are really touchy when you tell them you're a vegan because the implication is that they're doing something wrong. They're touchy because deep down they're guilty about their diet. They remember questioning it when they were very young. They become defensive and argumentative, deflective and full of justifications to make them feel safe. It's understandable really.
However, I'm not going to waste my energy arguing with people whom I've never met and have no reason to talk to as if they're an enemy. I'd rather exemplify the vegan ethos of person health, planetary health, empathy with others and sharing these things which have enriched my life. If others feel that I'm onto something and wish to do the same then all the better.
dont take it personally when you are insulted or harshly criticized , Just realize its from someone who doesnt even understand or is aware of the actual Reason they are vigorously Defending such positions.
its all Mental Programming and Brainwashing over many years and Generations !
The Good News is that thanks to Brave caring people like HARLEY , whos getting this info out to a mass audience, things are definitely changing, 1 person at a time
Excellent health and fitness on a raw vegan diet? Do you not understand how incredible floud that statement is? Excellent helath u say, have the guy in the vid run a 100% health check or something? How does he train and how long did he use on getting his body? His vid does not proove anything at all.
dude the amount of sugar in water melon is INSANE lol
I get a sugar high from just eating 3 apples and then I crash and store FAT cos my insulin levels spike...
i hav no idea wat he is saying either lol.
Vegan food is so bland anyway. It's true though that if u do ur research u can get enough protein in a vegan diet via spirulina etc
Still I consider plants to be ALIVE and LIFE & they are sentient beings to an extent so I don't see the logic behind the higher morality behind veganism.
But they don't have a brain, and therefore is no chance that they are aware of their existence, therefore I see no objection to killing them. At least that's my understanding.
They can't suffer etc. There is no science evidence saying otherwise.
Veganism isn't bland, and it's easy to get enough protein. Soy/tofo contains a complete protein, and then there are legumes and nuts.
Though I'm not a raw vegan, so I'm talking about non-raw veganism.
So what if they don't have a brain ? They are aware life forms and everything they do is to perpetuate SURVIVAL & prevent DEATH.
Is a human being who is in a coma and is brain dead any less of a person. They technically can't suffer but it still counts as life. I'm just saying that plants are life and that you are still taking that life if u eat vegetables.
Veganism is bland COMPARED to world cuisine because you will never have the same variety I would enjoy.
Why is your ad about eating fish and how great it is? Vital Choice is a company that will continue to exploit our oceans in th name of "nutrition".

One of those tiny fruit pies for a dollar in the supermarket are about 450 calories. This usually is not enough for anyone to eat. They might go and eat 2 or 3 more of those, and a hamburger plus the rest of that meal. That dinner desert episode is already more than 2k calories. Look at all the food you get to eat 6 lb. on that half of water melon for 600 calories. As far as I'm concerned that melon is a better deal calorie wise.

haha funny video. didnt know you were an elite athlete! In what sports? And im really interested in how much fruit cost in Aus.. Ofc it depends on what fruits and all but would you mind giving an example of the fruits you buy, how much and what it costs? Cos here in sweden a lot of the fruit you eat over there are freakin expensive here. I could just eat bananas and my wallet would feel fine but i would get seriously tired of the bananataste after a while.

serious question that i would like answering from @durianrider himself: I watched your vid on where you get you're protein, and it didnt answer anything. where do you get your protein from? what are your sources of amino acids? (according to westwest213LA, Im a minority in knowing what they are!) Im curious, if you already have a vid that defines specifics, then link me. if not, please answer my questions.

@irlumir Interesting. There's a story paleos are pushing that type 2 diabetes arises from insulin resistance, and that insulin resistance cannot be cured and can only be managed by limiting one's (non-fiber) carb intake to 50 g / day or less, so your body is forced to use fat as energy, and fat, unlike carbs, does not require insulin to be used as energy.

Look at my channel. I'm a fruitarian, and I don't binge eat on fruit like @durianriders nor do I measure my calories in a day. I eat once every 24 hours until I'm full (look up MMA Vegetarian Hershel Walker Diet) except I eat nothing but fruits in that time period. Look up the benefits of fasting in relationship to growth hormone to understand where I am coming from. For example today I ate 8 apples and that was it (which only cost me 5.20$ and is approximately 360 calories)

Protein freaks should know that you just need to get "enough" of all the essential amino acids on a pretty much daily basis but after "enough" the rest of your calories are better coming from carbs given that fresh veg and fruit has all the anti-oxidants and other things needed for health. Occasional whole bugs/grabs mixed in make up for anything else deficient. 10% protein more than enough for most people.

While their is protein in grains and nuts, their is far less per poundage than in meat. Also, the protein in these sources is of a different makeup and is less digestible than that in meat. If you eat a grass-fed, pasture-raised steak you will be getting a source of healthy protien that is low in saturated fat and high in healthy omega-3's, as well as B12. In your next doctor's visit, do a blood test. You will likely find that you are dangerously low in B12 and send the doctor into fits.

Balance is the key. And for some, that balance is achieved by eating low protein... for others, more protein.
Each human's body functions on a different combination of foods/types of foods. It's impossible for one person to declare "the ideal diet" for any other person.
I'm a 100% raw/live food vegan, but I see no value in telling everyone else they must follow MY path.

Calories don't make any sense. But FRUIT does. Calories are energy - but it has nothing to do with the metabolism.
Eat lots of fruit - but when you base it off calories - you get a warped result.
People eat chocolate bars... but they don't give them any CALORIES... because chocolate bars don't have any REAL ...LIVING ENERGY.
We no doubt need living food to sustain metabolism - but how much does the metabolism need every day? you need to be your own scientist - but calories won't tell you.

If some one makes an unintelligent claim - that doesn't have anything to do with their health - because people understand things differently.
However let's look at calories. They are heat. How much heat is produced.
But when a calori-bomb produces heat - it is quite differently than how the HUMAN BODY produces heat.
When looking at human diet - we should study the body - not calori bombs

I don't see calorie-bombs have much to do with the body. Fat produces 4x the heat than Simple Sugar - but that doesn't mean that the body oxidises food like a calori bomb does.
When studying the human body and its diet - we would be better off examining the structure of the animal - rather than the heat of food.

1. human mothers breastmilk is around 5-7% protein in terms of calories. this is when we are growing our fastest of our life. fruit is the same % of calories ie 5-7%.
2. i get between 30g and 140g of RAW LIVE AMINO ACID PROTEIN per day depending on what raw plant foods im eating. if im riding 500km that day, im eating more the day before, during and after.
3. how much protein do we need? according to the china study its optimum at 5% of total calories. same with UN and WHO. fruit is the best.

with this diet you WILL develope some type of protein deficiency, and your body will be breaking down alot of muscle and you wont even be able to feel that because youre super super hyper (bloodsugar levels are peeking so your brain is high on serotine)

look. I did not want to go in to that, simply because its not a hard question and I am not google, but you need around 0.8 gr of protien per kg on a normal day and sportpeople need arond 1.5-2 gr of protien per kg per day. not just aminoacid, complete protein.
so that means that 40 gr of protein in a day is more than enough for me on a normal day.
is that what you meant? or is what you mean that you have been counting your

amino acid intake every day and that 60 bananas really do provide enough amino acid, cause even if they did it would be way, way, WAYYY to much sugar overload.

ACEBAKER911 2 years ago
Did you actually get to be 180 pounds by eating only fruits and greens like this guy does? I tried this guy's diet and a regular vegan diet and I lost too much body fat but I think I kept all my muscle ('6 1' 145 pounds). It's made me more functional doing a diet like this guys, however I'm now very underweight. Am I suppose to stay on this diet long enough to start gaining?
OMFGsoBOARD 2 years ago
225 lbs 8 reps aint much. And I never said u couldent get any results at all, just that it would be hard to get optimal ones. This is based in statistical facts about the progress to groups of ppl eating different amounts of proteins. U cant argue away from that.
U are the moron whom does not really read what i write. And the way u feel about all the energy and stuff.. Well the excagt same things is said by many atkins ppl for instance. (ppl who ONLY consume fat and proteins)

225 lbs for 8 reps PROVES conclusively that im getting TONS of excellent high quality muscle building material from food.
I only workout for around 30 mins 1x per week, so actually that is GREAT and im very strong !
if i worked out in the gym all day long 4x per week like most of you Meat eating Morons i could easily be benching 315 for 8 reps
Your own selfish ego and Pride wont let you admit im right about the issue of Protein
ACEBAKER911 2 years ago
1: I cant see ur logic at all. Unless ur extremely strong there is little that can tell wether u get optimal results or not. .Except from the studys about athletes and protein eating.. Through neuromuscular adaption i bet i could get ppl to rep 225x8 from eating chockolate, but that is besides the point. U are in good shape. Ur arguments are so extremely floud it is unbealivabel.
Do u train ur whole body by the way? The LEGS for instance? If u dont u dont need as much proteins as otherwise.
faquarl08 2 years ago
My Logic is that im Obviously getting great high quality Amino Acids to build solid muscle and develop Strength on a Raw Vegan Diet.
NO ONE can say im weak, especially since i only workout for 30 mins 1 day per week. and i can Bench press 225 lbs for 8 reps and i Weigh a very Healthy Muscular 180 lbs.
Face it, your arguement that a Raw Vegan Diet is not healthy and cant build strength is totally False. You Obviously know NOTHING about Nutrition
ACEBAKER911 2 years ago
No, no no. Ur logic is that u are strong therefor u get optimal results. That does not make sense. U are strong, but that doesent proove much.
About my arguments; Do u acctually read my posts?
faquarl08 2 years ago
no no and NOOOOOOOOO NOOOOOOOO, THATS NOT WHAT IM SAYING !!!!!! Once more as always, you are wrong and you ONly hear what you want to hear
What i am saying is my goal has always been and will be to be STRONG with GREAT VIBRANT DISEASE FREE HEALTH !
ITS ABOUT THE COMBINATION AND I HAVE IT, i never get sick, No colds, No flus, my immune system is stronger than its ever been in my Life,
ACEBAKER911 2 years ago
The ONLY reason i mentioned how Strong i am is to totally and completely take away the Asinine Childish Argument often stated by ' meat heads' like yourself that claim that Vegans are weak, Frail and have very little strength.
THATS THE ONLY REASON I MENTIONED IT, so now that ive taken that myth and destroyed, as millions of other Raw vegans have also done.
whats your issue and your problem ? Why are you here commenting on this video talkin like a Meat head ?

mctradewind 1 year ago
@mctradewind Well, he is low in fat and has an ok build. I wonder how he would stack up against a person of similar build who eats meat. I must say again, it is not just the strength and build that could be severly lacking in vegans, but, nutritionally a vegan diet is imbalanced due to the fact that it avoids the benefits of meat, eggs and dairy.

We first foraged fruit and leaves. Then hunted, which was at around the same time we became stupid.
thefutureisvegan 2 years ago
What if u were born in the artic, in some tribe and all u have is whales and seals. What do you then? starve? When I see raw meat, my body craves it, it naturally wants to eat it, its appealing. I did not choose to do that. Yes in excess meat is bad, but in moderation is good for ya, we just have to be appreciative of what it takes to get it. Donte be so close minded because we are NOT only vegetarians, although some people make that choice and I respect it, you still kill plants to eat though.
dehountinge 2 years ago
I kill plants to eat because that is what I was designed for. Humans invented the technologies to hunt and then dispersed out of their optimal habitats to live the hunting lifestyle. I'm sorry if I appear close minded but I can't respect people who pay others to incarcerate, torture and slaughter other animals. Your preference for meat is only a trained thing, not a natural thing. Please explore this further and maybe you will find a new, pleasant diet.
thefutureisvegan 2 years ago
How do you know we are not designed to eat meat, that's what I don't understand. I agree with u. I think our society has become unaware of the cruelty that goes behind meat production plus the pollution it creates. I think our whole civilization has been built in excess that's why we are destroying nature, etc. Yet, if your body can handle eating meat is because you can do it. I try to buy organic meat and range free eggs, etc. You cant disrespect people for being ignorant in the matter.
dehountinge 2 years ago
Fruity felicitations dehountinge. Although I get a little robust in my comments now and again, please don't think that they come from a place of disrespect. In my 50 years, I've gained enough experience of diet to know that everyone can live a much happier life as a vegan, with improved health, energy and connectedness with all creatures. I believe that the world would be a better place if we all went down the vegan path. Most people are caught up in traditional eating patterns which go back to
thefutureisvegan 2 years ago
when man began tool use and later agriculture. We are Great Apes and, apart from Chimps, which on rare occasions eat meat, no others do it. I'm through with YT arguments on this matter. People can write all the hateful stuff they like about vegans and the joy they take in being cruel. If they're lucky, they'll find a way out of the dark place which they inhabit and become vegans one day. Until then I'll follow my path and maybe inspire others to become vegans too. Good luck on your journey.

What you'll notice is 99% of those who get on here and Rail against Eating Raw Vegan, are those that have NEVER bothered to at least try it for 1 week on their own.
Instead they will argue ' intellectually' by constant Analysis of every minute detail on ultra specifics, Yet totally miss the Huge core pieces, the fundamental principles .
The reason most people are Against this way of Eating is Obviously many years of BRAINWASHING.
Dont let it Upset you
ACEBAKER911 2 years ago
Its an Obvious character or Mental deficiency of Human Nature i suppose.
But it doesnt matter if the topic is Politics , Religion, or yep even Food.
Most People will Defend to the Death whats Popular, regardless if its right or wrong, could be Benefiting or Destroying them , it simply doesnt matter.
MOST people only have 1 single criteria for what they practice and advocate in their Entire lives , which is
' What is most Popular, ok ill just do that '
ACEBAKER911 2 years ago
If for the Last hundred years or so the Public education system, magazines, TV shows , News etc. around the world taught everyone that eating Raw Vegan was Best
and you now were here telling everyone that Eating meat was best and whats Natural, you would be getting the SAME criticism from the SAME people here, only their position would have changed because
theyd have the SAME Mental program running in their brains to ' defend whats popular no matter what '
ACEBAKER911 2 years ago
I agree with your points. YouTube has many vids about horrendous cruelty to animals which is all part of the meat industry and what do we see written under it all the time? People carrying on like "that made me hungry" or "I like bacon". They have to, because they're full of deep down guilt. Guys who beat animals in factory farms have to otherwise they'd have to relate to the animal and face the reality of what they're doing. Nazis did in Auschwitz, Japanese soldiers did in Changi.
thefutureisvegan 2 years ago 2
People are really touchy when you tell them you're a vegan because the implication is that they're doing something wrong. They're touchy because deep down they're guilty about their diet. They remember questioning it when they were very young. They become defensive and argumentative, deflective and full of justifications to make them feel safe. It's understandable really.
thefutureisvegan 2 years ago
However, I'm not going to waste my energy arguing with people whom I've never met and have no reason to talk to as if they're an enemy. I'd rather exemplify the vegan ethos of person health, planetary health, empathy with others and sharing these things which have enriched my life. If others feel that I'm onto something and wish to do the same then all the better.

The organic soy is the real deal.

dude the amount of sugar in water melon is INSANE lol
I get a sugar high from just eating 3 apples and then I crash and store FAT cos my insulin levels spike...
i hav no idea wat he is saying either lol.
Vegan food is so bland anyway. It's true though that if u do ur research u can get enough protein in a vegan diet via spirulina etc
Still I consider plants to be ALIVE and LIFE & they are sentient beings to an extent so I don't see the logic behind the higher morality behind veganism.
neb967 3 years ago
Yes, plants are alive, and they are a life form.
But they don't have a brain, and therefore is no chance that they are aware of their existence, therefore I see no objection to killing them. At least that's my understanding.
They can't suffer etc. There is no science evidence saying otherwise.
Veganism isn't bland, and it's easy to get enough protein. Soy/tofo contains a complete protein, and then there are legumes and nuts.
Though I'm not a raw vegan, so I'm talking about non-raw veganism.
Pincus666 2 years ago
So what if they don't have a brain ? They are aware life forms and everything they do is to perpetuate SURVIVAL & prevent DEATH.
Is a human being who is in a coma and is brain dead any less of a person. They technically can't suffer but it still counts as life. I'm just saying that plants are life and that you are still taking that life if u eat vegetables.
Veganism is bland COMPARED to world cuisine because you will never have the same variety I would enjoy.
