91 year old raw foodist Dr. Stanley Bass Part 3.

[Tupoc4181]

i thought that sirun was real

[ShroedingerWatcher]

8secs and onwards.

Do you really think that is a healthy normal 90 year old?

[vishuiqual]

I think he is has some advanced thinking going on. I eat raw fish and I am glowing...I eat tons of green raw foods and not that much fruit. I don't eat raw meat, but I look amazing to some people. They are asking me what I am doing. I am also exercising in the morning for at least and hour. Outside with fresh air.

[auggiedoggy]

@vishuiqual : Do you also include raw eggs?

[nyxs60]

Gieszkanne I think he says longevity long life. Not sure about what he's really about i thought all vegan is most prob best and was not sure about this 'research' interesting information but don' t particularly go with it.

[Gieszkanne]

There is another "China Study" (a book from) Campell which get to the point that the best nutrition is vegan. Its very frustrating. No Dr. Prof can tell for sure.

What he say 1:35 "low gavidy" ???

[gojiberries1]

The Hunza people live till 130 and mostly around 100. The eat RAW dairy most of the time. The have glacier water. They do eat cooked meat very rarely through the year, mostly in the the winter. Hunza live without disease. Climb mountains in their 90's The don't buy oil . they use oil for medicine. They do eat apricots. Apricot kernels. Too bad we don't have access to Raw milk. We have to adapt to our screwed up habitat.

[gojiberries1]

I love these videos on Dr. Bass. I am confused about raw fish and meat. Some people say it is very unhealthy. The Hunza people live till 130 or 100 most of the time and they have a wide variety of foods. Happiness may be one reason...I am not God but these people are Robust. and happy.

[Gudni777]

As I understand it then the Eskimos suffered from osteoporosis.

[Paseo123]

yes he did..Meat! as a source of fat/calories, you could also get calories from other carbs like quinoa or starches like steamed yam...there is no simple solution, we need a wide variety of food to get all our nutrients like he says and there is no optimal level of carbs, protein, fat balance, they vary on what you eat and exercize each day.

[poemforana]

paul he did NOT answer about the calories in a clear way - with all due respect he did NOT say what people in the westeran world can do - eat etc etc! what did we gain from this intrview? sorry but the king is naked

[ACEBAKER911]

ive asked Paul if he is going to Raise his Daughter as a Raw Vegan and so far he wont answer that question

[poemforana]

well i don't think he is going to answer a lot of the qustions - he doesn't have to but i think raw food as a vegan way is to hard for him right now - in the blue zones there are many people who lived all there life as vegans and live after the age of 100 and they still ride there bikes, clean there gardens and don't suffer from any dieases or some thing like that- all tough i must admit they are not 100% raw, they do coock some of the food but don't touch dairy or meat!

[ACEBAKER911]

The true test of what Paul feels about Veganism is how he will feed his daughter.

If he isnt going to raise her as a Raw Vegan, than we know for sure that he has NO confidence in that diet for long term health.

He is Obviously going to put all his wisdom, knowledge and experience into doing the best for his Daughter

And if he isnt going to raise her as a Raw Vegan, than its a definite sign he has NO confidence in that diet for long term Human health

[ACEBAKER911]

a person can write 100 books and talk until they are blue in the face about whats best and whats healthy etc.

The true test of their real inner belief system and Principles are invested in how they Rear their Children

He Obviously loves his Daughter very much, and is going to do what he feels is in her best Health interest as he Raises her

Thats why i asked him that very interesting and Relevant question , it gets right to the CORE of his belief system now

[RawRebuild]

Paul you have done well to produce this interview with Dr. Bass.

Thank you for your integrity and service. Your willingness to retain receptivity to optimal dietary approaches sets you apart.

I've been eating raw animal foods for 4 years after maintaining a long-term vegan diet. Dr. Bass was highly influential in my decision making process. I can attest to my experience in that I feel far healthier-- mentally and physically.

Healthiest regards and deepest blessings to you and your family.

[ACEBAKER911]

approx how much of your diet is Raw Animal foods ?

[sn9696]

i agree what Dr B says at the end,how can you call yourself a vegetarian and eat eggs and cheese ??

[heloise9]

Thank you for these interviews. I ate a high raw diet for one year and helped clear a load of toxins from years of prescription medications and abuse. But, deep down I just never felt the diet was ideal for my body. There is a sort of subdued, competitive mood on raw forums; I would just like to talk to others interested in achieving health and happiness. So thank you for sharing a different perspective. I agree with Dr. Bass' view that restrictive diets are often not effective for a lifetime.

[RisingEdge111]

Dr Bass seems congested with mucus. Sure sign of his animal diet.

[RawRebuild]

"seems" and actually are not synonymous. He does not cook his animal foods.

If he does not heat his animal foods, what would produce mucous?

....as raw animal foods maintain all of their enzymes.

[vicky2c]

This man is giving hygiene a Bad name. We don't llive like eskimos ..we have heat in our homes , heloow clling all aniet people!!! It is alsmost 2010!! We could have fruit delivered! Eat meat and fat? IS this guy nuts? Also Fat= Diabetes. Have you seen Dr. Graham in oerson? He is all Muscle and as healthy as one could get and not slowing down. This guys seems very congested and blurred vision etc. Not following his bad advice at all.Stay 811 for life! Read 80/10/10 by Dr. D Graham!!!

[thedurianking]

When others make it to 91 than you have the right to reply like this but no one I know of has made it to 91 on a raw vegan diet. But do what you feel best.

[ACEBAKER911]

Paul just curious, what is Dr. Biscis age and has he been a Raw Vegan consistently since he ate raw as a lifestyle ?

ive been told  Jay Kordich the juiceman has been a strict Vegan for over 40 yrs. and i believe his current age is early 80s ?

Whether thats literally true that hes been a complete Vegan all those years its impossible to say, all we can do is take him at his word

[ACEBAKER911]

Dr. Bass's contention that Most RAw Vegans cheat and arent honest about it is interesting.

Its an impossible thing to prove or disprove, I can say im Vegan 100% and how can anyone disprove it ?

You cant, no one can, Its an intriguing question of those that claim to be completely Raw Vegan, are they cheating and how would anyone know

we wouldnt Know, David Wolfe could be eating a cheeseburger right now and No One would Know

[ACEBAKER911]

Paul, the oldest possible Raw Vegan im aware of was Dr. william Esser of Lake Worth, Florida

He was a founding  member of the Natural Hygiene membership along with Shelton and Cursio and Bass

Dr. Esser passed away at 82 and claimed he was a consistent Raw Vegan for 50 yrs. He ran a fasting raw vegan retreat in FL for 30 yrs. There are those that claim he consumed Raw Dairy

Dr. Shelton wasnt a Vegan and consumed Raw Dairy

[thedurianking]

I knew Dr. Esser, he was 92 and not a vegan

[ACEBAKER911]

Actually the woman Dr Bass Named in that picture Dr.  Virginia Vetrano is still alive and i believe shes 81 ?

I know you interviewed her in your book, and she claims to have been a consistent 100% Raw Vegan all these years.

Interestingly ive heard that her Daughter Dr. Tosca Haag also a Natural Hygiene Dr. has raised her children with Animal foods because of observing the Deficincies of the Raw Vegan diet in others.

Dr. Tosca Haag would be a GREAT person to interview

[ACEBAKER911]

Also as i know you are well aware, Dr. Brian Clement is a Strong intense promoter of Veganism and claims to be Staunch 100 % Vegan himself for many years and appears to be in excellent Health and Fitness at 60 yrs old with Lush thick Hair and no Greys

Ive never seen any 60 yr old with healthier looking hair than he has !

[auggiedoggy]

@ACEBAKER911 : He could be cheating on his diet. He wouldn't be the first "guru" to do that. I'd be very skeptical of any person claiming to be a legitimate healthy long-term vegan (raw or otherwise) or fruitarian.

[capedchameleon]

@thedurianking I saw a documentary about a few people who was over a hundred years. One of them ate mostly chocolate, the conventional kind... So I guess no one under a hundred has any say in this.

[Gieszkanne]

@capedchameleon

Yes the must 100s and over eat normal some even smoke or drink. But there are also vegetarians who get old an healthy. Maybe there is something right with the blood type diet that not one nutrition is good for everyone.

[capedchameleon]

@Gieszkanne I think you just said what I tried to say. Tank you. :)

[ShroedingerWatcher]

@thedurianking Interesting, because no one I know of has made it to 80 on omnivore diets (raw or not). But advertize what you feel is best for your income.

[ACEBAKER911]

Actually Dr. Graham has aged alot in recent years and looks old . It will be very interesting to find out how he will progress or degress physically as he gets Older.

Hes got a long time yet before he reaches 90

[prsglenn]

@vicky2c you should see the origin0balance people on youtube. They eat raw meat, eggs, milk, as well as veges and herbs and fruit and they are... well you'll see. search "raw meat super muscle food"...

[green2lean]

Whoever gave thumbs down on my comment please private message me as to why or put it here. Are you upset that I said meat was okay to eat or are you upset that I said it was hard to find clean meat?

[Nakutao]

Human beings are like oppurtunistic eaters. We will eat whatever we can find to survive. Food wasn't always available year round and alot of our ancestors were not healthy. They had poor vision and other problems because they were malnourished. Today we have the nutrition, but we over eat too! Too much of anything isn't good! There is some 60,000centenarians ive read and they said not one is vegan. Jesus even consumed animal products. Would God feed his children poison because it wasn't raw?!lol

[Nakutao]

The Bible says it best! "Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand". (Philippians 4:5)

[ACEBAKER911]

this is all sooooo interesting !

cant wait for part 4

id like to hear what Dr. Bass's Opinions are about Algaes, and Greens as they are described by V. Boutenko as being the most nutritionally complete food for humans

[Nakutao]

Paul thanks so much for this interview! Dr Bass is awesome! He reminds me of Christian Walken. He definately knows what he is talking about because of all his experience. I think there is a little truth to all of the different sides. A good balanced diet with clean foods and not so much food! Don't count calories! If bananas and watermelon and salmon and deer and all these foods on this planet were somehow bad or influenced our date of death then life would be miserable.

[sicilian2k]

Wow this guy is really confused!

to be vegan or not

vegan dosent live longer than a meat eater??who is this guy

[todayisthedaytolive]

A vegan can definetly live longer than someone who eats too many animal foods IMO.

My personal belief is that a vegan diet with tiny amounts of animal foods is ideal.

having 1 raw egg every three days or so is the best for me.

I also think that too much fat isn't good, especially if its from oils or nuts.

I also think drinking vegetable, fruit and root juices are the best way to increase longevity.

[Mongodelight]

everyone with a little basic nutrition knowledge knows that excess fat in the diet leads to various diseases. But the raw food gurus say: fat is good as long as its raw. But sugar is always bad, cooked or raw in the ultimate health food sweet fruit. Why is that? Because you cant ship tree ripened mangos with a big profit. But you can ship nuts and fat powders with a giant profit. Dr. Douglas Graham doesnt sell u crap

[green2lean]

For me, not meaning to push my beliefs, the bible tells us what we need for good health. Meat is fine if it's clean meat. It's getting harder and harder to get clean meat with mercury in the fish and antibiotics and steroids used on animals and the manmade toxins in the animal feed. For this reason, traditional meat eaters do run a risk of disease greater than organic diets.

Jack LaLanee said it best. If man made it, don't eat it. If it tastes good, spit it out (this part was in jest).

[green2lean]

I'd be curious to hear Dr. Bass' theories on the accuracy of the bible in relation to healthy eating. The bible says not to eat the fat of the animal. I am also aware the bible says that all things made by God are good to eat if prayed over, so... I like to hear different thoughts on this.

[Nakutao]

When the Bible is talking about not eating the fat of the animal or eating pork it is talking about the food laws of that day! When Christ died on the cross for the sins of humanity we are no longer under the law. We have the freedom to eat whatever whole foods we want to and God will bless us if we give thanks! Everything in moderation. Dont be a carnivore and dont be a herbivore.

[green2lean]

Naku, you are repeating what I have already said. I referred to the exact scripture you are referring to and said I was aware of it. Do you really think we are immune to the laws? The laws were there for a reason. You may be able to break the laws and be forgiven but that doesn't mean that you won't have consequences of your actions in the flesh.

Research supports that the fat of the animal is bad for you. The fat is where toxins are stores and the way the body assimilates fat is bad.

[green2lean]

Pork is also unhealthy. I personally believe crustaceans are not good for you either.

Why are you telling me not to be a carnivore or herbivore? If you know I value the old testament laws on eating, you already know I think it's okay to eat both.

We also do not eat horse meat. Do you think it's a coincidence that the things the OT says not to eat are bad for us?

[green2lean]

To let you know why I have trouble with your reply, it's because you state your opinion (and it is only an opinion) with such conviction. Also because I already said I am aware that the bible says all things made by God are good to eat if we ask God to bless it. Your use of exclamation marks maybe rub me the wrong way. I can provide scriptures to debate you in regard to whether, or not, Jesus abolished the food laws. I think it's possible He did, but not absolute. Please keep an open mind.

[ACEBAKER911]

Dr. bass ate the 80 10 10 Diet a long time ago, and he ran into Deficiencies on it as did his Paitents

[green2lean]

Sorry Ace, I am confused by your reply. Which of my comments are you referring to? I thought my question was what Dr. Bass thinks about bible in regard to laws on food. I cannot figure out how your comment relates to anything I have said.

[ACEBAKER911]

80 10 10 can be a very deficient diet for most people  in the long term

[green2lean]

Ace, I'm not disagreeing with you. I have no opinion on it. I just don't understand what I said that you're replying to. Did I mention the 80 10 10? I'm confused.
