Doctors Explain Healthy Way for Bill Clinton's Dramatic Weight Loss

[datzfast]

poor guy he has lost all the vigor, he clearly is not the same man

[HermannTheGreat]

@datzfast He went through the presidency, that will wear the life out of anyone. And he's 65 lol, cut him some slack he's not a young guy. The fact he got through a Bypass and lost tons of weight and basically saved his life through eating clean is pretty incredible.

[datzfast]

gee billy boy i eat paleo meat diet and lost 50 pounds. looks like i beat the hell out of your little puny weight loss.tell you what if i die first you can piss on my grave, but you die first.LOL

[noldorian86]

@datzfast im sure he is terribly upset dear xD

[datzfast]

@noldorian86 thats right, the daed cant smell urine.LOL

[cubedmack]

@datzfast yeah, but u had to work out to loss that weight and he didn't.

[gnossticc]

Americans ought to have the worst diet on planet earth!  Being the richest nation on human history it's a shame not to have a better diet. Americans, wake-up!

[ACLogikel]

I've basically cured life long chronic migraines with diet alone. I was the rare type who had them literally 5-7 days a week as far back as my first memory of life. It took me years to weed through all the BS doctors and meds, testings etc... Various diets and exercises programs, nutritional therapies etc... But hands down nothing works better to this day than a primarily raw based diet with about 10-20% cooked foods which is minimal rice and vegetables, no meat, traditionalmedicinals herb teas

[master4mis]

I'm interested to discover a little more about weight loss diet plans - I am employing numerous DietOramy weight-reduction plan (found it on Google) for a handful of time now and I am in fact reducing weight and am happy with regards to it!

[Ownt45]

@fettkatt87 Oh please do shut up.

Great positive message! Hope people will actually start thinking about what it is they're putting into their bodies.

[fettkatt87]

If people are going to be healthy they need to begin to belive in Jesus Christ and worship and pray to him. Because He is the Savior of the world. Eating healthy is also important, but not as important as Jesus, and reading about Him in the Bible the only true word of God. Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life and the only way to the Father.

[qarohc]

@fettkatt87

Jesus was just another nut leading yet another cult.

That is if he wasn't made up entirely by later cult leaders.

Who gives a fuck about your idiotic superstitious nonsense?

If you dont want your retarded ideas to be ridiculed keep them to yourself or just share them with other idiots that have been infected by your particular cult.

In other words fuck jesus and the hypocritical ignorant assholes that push his stupid death cult.

[gnossticc]

@qarohc Ohh, talking about intolerant NON-religious Hitchens-followers...Good-bye, let's talk about diet will ya?

[gnossticc]

@qarohc By the way, great cult-leader Hitchens was...Just saying...

[qarohc]

@gnossticc

What the fuck does Hitchens have to do with any of this?

Some jesus asshole starts pushing his cult in a video about diet and you respond to me?

Are you so ignorant that you think that some idiot pushing his cult would never get called out unless the person is a Hitchens clone?

Keep your idiotic cult to yourselves and out of public view and you wont have to worry about people that dont buy your particular brand of bullshit.

[gnossticc]

@qarohc Did I say that I was a christian or do you need to learn ho to read? L0L Go back to school intolerant asswipe!

[qarohc]

@gnossticc

Not only do you sound like a christian, with your cult of Hitchens idiocy, but you sound like a loud mouth fundamentalist creationist.

Not my fault you say things that are inconsistent with your self image.

And again just like a christian nutter, insult and ignore.

[gnossticc]

@qarohc Have you ever heard that I dispise Benny-Crook-Hinn&Co. of crooks?

[smartverity]

This is such a great, positive message and I truly hope this has influenced people to make informed changes to what they put in their mouths.

[IranContraScumDid911]

His heart and septum are destroyed from doing huge piles of cocaine with prostitutes. Bill knows all about "dramatic weight loss" smoking crack. Bill Clinton is a piece of trash, a treasonous terrorist to divert attention from his impeachment trial and lying under oath (and publicly to America on TV). Along comes Bin Laden, who Bill says bombed everything since 1990, most of which he could not or even would not do. Bill then hits Afghanistan and says Bin Laden. As usual, no evidence presented

[TheSaltySpicy]

@SamanthaLee your ex-boyfriend is a freakin' retarded.. He just wants you to become obese becases he wants to own you.. I suggest you should engage this diet program WeightLossAction.Info.. You can see a lot of diet information there on how to lose your fats fast.. They have the best diet programs so dont worry.. I myself tried it also and it works well..

[DiceEsque]

@11111rarara you can get B12 simply by drinking almond milk. Not exactly "Whole Foods Plant Based", but it's no steak.

[Arianbrightside]

way to go Prez!

[Gfrant]

people have been consuming animal proteins for centuries. the reason uncle sam doesn't want you eating meat is because it contributes to global warming. soy on the other hand is extremely cheap and easy to mass produce. they also don't mention how soy probably causes dementia, or how traditionally humans would die without meat due to b12 deficiency. i feel as if the solution may lie with some sort of bio engineered meat substitute.

[officialphatchance]

@Gfrant yeah... Uncle Sam doesn't want you eating meat... do some research mate. There's no deficiency in a balanced vegetarian/vegan diet, I know because I follow one and I'm sure as hell not dead.

[avatarion]

@Gfrant

I also don't eat soy because of the estrogen content.

[qarohc]

@Gfrant

"the reason uncle sam doesn't want you eating meat is because it contributes to global warming"

This is just ignorant.

There is a great deal of investment in the meat industry in this country. The rest of your statements are just as shallow and ill-informed.

[ACLogikel]

@Gfrant uhh b12 deficiency is the biggest crock of shit there is, our own body produces b12 without any outside help. Meat eaters tend to have MORE b12 deficiency and then 3-4 more minerals and vitamins than plant eaters. Deficiencies occur in plants ONLY based on soil quality, the meat eaters get them because they dont eat enough good food and clog their system with meat. You're liver loves you for eating all that meat! You probably carry 10-20 lbs extra weight of just dead meat.

[jmiller19882014]

Until Ornish or Essyelstyn can explain the following, I'm not going on a vegan diet:

Country - % of calories from saturated fat

Austria - 14

Netherlands - 15.1

Switzerland- 15.3

France - 15.5

Massai - 66

Inuit - 75

I'm also against fish oil due to the fact it increases malondyldialdehyde which can cause birth defects, and destroys DNA and protein-based structures. And long-term, fish oil supplementation increases sudden death and heart disease rates (DART 2 study)

[jmiller19882014]

@jmiller19882014

Each one of these countries have low heart disease rates, and Austrians are expected to live the longest last time I checked. The Massai feed butter to their babies - the horror! And don't tell anyone, but only 26% of arterial clogs are saturated, while over half are polyunsaturated, the only reason this works is because it's low in polyunsaturated fats, there's no need to get rid of CLA (the good kind of saturated fat), saturated, and monounsaturated fats from your diet.

[jmiller19882014]

@jmiller19882014

Also, there is plenty of evidence showing that a high fat/low carb diet will have great iimpacts on C-Reactive Protein, lipids, and cytokines. LDL doesn't rise from intake of saturated fat in humans, my guess is that most doctors take "roaming ranges" for "increases via saturated fat."

Also, unless they prove without any doubt this diet prevents other mortality causes (cancer, stroke, etc.) I don't think anyone is going to care about trading one illness for another.

[jmiller19882014]

@jmiller19882014

"Good kind of saturated fat" should read "good kind of trans fat."

[TheTechnify]

Just wondering How would you prepare a food made from veggei completely without an oil ? any website ?

[TheKPiech]

Listen to the song "Miles away" by Kaz Piech!!

[MaleAdaptor]

Even luciferians need good diet.

[oolilfishyoo]

extra virgin olive oil, cold pressed is fine, wtf he talkin about? just dont heat it over like 200 degrees or it turns into a bad oil.

[beta447]

I'm gonna miss cheese. =-(

[EB88]

I'm transitioning to a vegan diet last few weeks and I'm peeing/pooing like ten times a day

[TheTechnify]

@EB88 ahahahahah somehow I had that thought, but i cracked up with ur statements. lol.

[fredhetz]

@heysloppyroom, they're not technically vegans if they eat things like dairy and eggs. You are correct in saying that a vegetarian diet can be unhealthy if a person loads up on dairy, etc., though. Just wanted to clarify that a vegetarian diet can still include animal products; a vegan one doesn't.

[camelsonhorizon]

RAW FOOD. David Wilcock. David Wolfe. D.U.M.B.??

[silver91183]

Food with mother in it is the best way to go

[jchryss]

protein powder is dairy

[fredhetz]

@jchryss, it can be but it's not necessarily. There is such a thing as vegan protein powder.

[emmarsh99]

Protein powder is not necessarily dairy if the protein is hemp rather than whey as the protein. Vega is one example.

[Inflamsx]

So its the saturated fat that damages? What about nuts with high saturated fats?

[SandCmpbll]

Bill Clinton great. He looks much younger. What people don't realize is that a plant-based diet is full of antioxidants which slow the aging process. 

[SandCmpbll]

@ericDouglace No, actually, he's very smart. The facts can't be disputed. Dairy and meat is killing people. If you think it's BS, keep eating it--and watch your health decline.

[frost122585]

"Am I actually going to live longer, or will it just seem longer if I live this way?" Lol.

[HolisticHealersAcad]

Excellent video!

[centercity1]

those two doctors are putting themselves and there families in a lot of danger saying this stuff publicly

[lciaravi]

@richorcaonyt I agree.

[alternocrat]

He didn't respond because he's afraid of a scandal, like most people are afraid of giving up using animals because it's understood as "necessary" or somethig like that.

[Drop116]

Bull shit! You foo!!!

NWO!

[delwaine]

He drinks ALMOND MILK silly -- not "all my milk".

[mattplayscheap]

I am a pescetarian and my life has changed!

[UraniumMan]

@richorcaonyt I think they WANTED to say that, but refrained due to the powerful force of corporate influence...

[rhynocrisy]

This is good news! we can all wait till we are 65 before we need to worry about it since we can reverse our whole life crappy eating in less than nine months. Bull, there is much money to suck out of a 60% over weight USA with a book (soon to come I am sure). He Said Quote I dont do dairy I drink all my milk (contradiction). Protein powder tells me the diet fails to provide the essentials! BULL CRAP! Setting all the people who struggle with weight issues with a dust collector book. Right2Say

[rhynocrisy]

@rhynocrisy Oh the books are at 2 minutes 9 seconds on video. So go buy them now! Fructose (fruit sugar) fails to provide a balanced meal and will make someone who has limited exercise fat. If you really care to lose weight the only correct answer is portion control, balanced nutrition, vitamins and the less you exercise the more portion control, that simple! For healthy eating go wiki cholesterol, fat cells, sodium chloride, protien and carbohydrates. Be careful of quacks the preach unbalanced

[cbrowncolors]

@KaseyAkira; There is definitely a lot wrong with fish oil. Health wise, concentrations of heavy metals (and soon plastic) in aquatic life are becoming very dangerous. Secondly, and more importantly, the way fish are "harvested" from the ocean is a process that is akin to taking a bulldozer to a forest to catch a deer. Please check out National Geographic's series on the fishing industry. Thirdly, as a vegan I think it is wrong to harm others when alternatives are available and so readily too.

[KaseyAkira]

This is so ridiculous, and its just plain sad when DOCTORS get on TV and spout off such nonsense like this. Health gurus, maybe. But doctors??? So much is wrong with what they say that I wouldn't even know where to BEGIN correcting them. I could turn debunking the nonsense in this vid into a day long seminar.

Absolute bullshit. Their license to practice should be pulled before they start selling snake water (cuz oils are out LOL) out the back of a covered wagon.

[classad98]

I agree on the water and drink Kangen (TM) water made by the SD-501 Enagic machine. It's great. Also, Bill Clinton's Doctor, Dr. Esselstyn takes Juice Plus+ which is 17 fruits and veggies, grains in a convenient capsule and most likely the protien shake Clinton drinks is from Juice Plus also.. haven't verified it though.. it's identity preserved, non GMO soy and rice protein based ... I start my day with it and it's wonderful...

[FitnessJem]

vegan propaganda

[gilliangirl1]

@FitnessJem Propaganda? It's not propaganda when it's based on facts and evidence.

[cbrowncolors]

Why didn't anyone say anything about flaxseeds? you don't need to use fish oil!

[KaseyAkira]

@cbrowncolors There is nothing wrong with fish oil. It's like saying "NO MORE VITAMIN C! IT CAUSES CANCER!" It's so unfathomably dumb that it's almost surreal.

[BURDKLAN]

@cbrowncolors I take it 3 times everyday

[shushusharlie]

My LOVE in Chicago (I live in Los Angeles) turned me onto this vegan life style. I've started to do this, and I love it. I have found that I really don't have to eat meat.

Both of my x-wives have switched to a vegan diet. One is an insulin dependent diabetic, who has reduced her insulin intake because of her new diet. She lost several pounds (25+) and her vision improved. The other lost 15+ pounds, her vision improved.

My second ex-wife has introduced me to a vegan diet, and I love it.

[Siddan]

Well done Clinton that you finally turned over to some REAL specialists in health and then letting u know about it :)

Allthough I must mention....

Ionized alkaline water works exactly the same way - The key is to alkalize your body. But since this is drinking water, the effects are more superior and it hydrates your body about 6-7 times more than conventional ordinary water.

The FOOD is now recognized - NOW it is time to recognize our WATER ;)

[purplefrog529]

So good to see someone high profile spread the good news about the benefits of a plant based diet! It does even more good when these foods are eaten in their most natural form: raw and organic!

[jceiras]

@purplefrog529 many plants need cooking in order for the body to properly absorb all the nutrients. Better to cook them a bit. I steam some of my vegetables.

[camelsonhorizon]

@jceiras Really, What veggies? Broccoli is the only one i can maybe consider to cook to properly absorb nutrients. Cooking kills enzymes. I learned from my girl that raw food was the best for the body..

[MrSuperfood1]

Whole Food Options Exist, but may not be available in your local grocery store. I get over 15,000 ORAC Units of Anti-oxidant protection every single day. I am never sick and maintain a perfect weight as a result. With 68percent of America over-weight, you may want to find out what I have learned and also share it as a part-time business! I have three friends off of heart medication!!! (866-510-2282). Note that Clinton stresses vegetables and fruits! That's the key!

[MlleVanali]

we dont need dairy and def not fish oil.

[ItOffishul]

DONT DRINK soy milk...drink coconut milk or almond milk...actually almond milk is all irridiated in this country thanks to oversensitive food safety ppl which sucks..id say coconut is the best regardless of its high saturated fat, it's a completely different kind of fat.

Soy milk has estrogenic properties so men especially should steer clear and btw it is GENETICALLY MODIFIED...which presents a host of other new problems. The VAST majority of corn and soy is GMO, other cty's wont TOUCH IT

[cybertooth49]

@ItOffishul GMO is fine.

[cbaultman]

It might sound like a cliche, but I sincerely believe veganism would cure most of the world's problems. There literally isn't an area of your life that isn't affected.

[rawnaturalbeauty]

I am so happy to finally be seeing this come out in the mainstream media. There is not denying that a vegan lifestyle improves ones health. I have been on again and off again vegan for 8 years but I always feel better when I stay the course. But beware you can be a vegan junkie as well. The best thing to do is eat as close to nature as possible. Thanks Bill for enlightening the public.

[merce0909]

Good for you Mr President!! I hope more people in America and the whole world listen to your advice and testimony about the wonders of a vegan/vegetarian diet.

[balivernes1]

Great to see hopefully influential people like Clinton going towards vegan (he still has 'a little fish' from time to time).

[erikascatgrooming]

Terrific interview with Clinton - and great discussion with the two doctors! Wonderful that talks like these are being shown on CNN. A healthy diet can change your life!

[FightForTheInnocent]

why not use the word "Vegan"?! :(

[adelicatebalancefilm]

I made a documentary that featured Dr Esselstyn and a number of other key researchers. It can be watched online for free from our website....

[sumrCA]

Amazing! Let Clinton lead the way for Americas new diet!!

[ThaDANosaur]

CHICKEN IS MEAT!!!!!!!!!!

He says it like it's separate. haha

[balivernes1]

@ThaDANosaur : Not really. He says "meat of any kind: chicken, turkey" (because so many OTHER people somehow don't seem to think that fish and chicken are 'meat').

[Nancydah]

great!!

[sierragreen]

Is it any wonder that children who drink a lot of cow's milk soon begin to look like cows?

[seamoremonster]

Thank you for posting this. It was excellent.

[isaschloegl]

I think this information is wonderful, but I would have liked to have seen them address the animal welfare issue and the ethics of veganism. I also agree with the other comments that cow's milk is for calves, not human children. Would you feed a calf or puppy human milk? Probably not.

What's important is that veganism has been brought to the attention of the mass public, and maybe they'll be inspired to learn more about the health benefits of choosing a compassionate way of life.

[Gary1111001]

@isaschloegl I think the health issue should be kept separate from the ethics issue - because people tend to think the health claims are just propaganda for animal welfare.

I like to focus on it being natural, thus being good across the board: win-win-win.

[partneryoga1]

Joy of living- the most informative, reality based, mainstream conversation on nutrition I've ever heard. Great work Wolf!

[33bien]

good going Clintons.

[Josephinega]

Good for you Mr. Clinton, Almond Milk rocks ^5

[sinstar1]

Milk is for baby cows. The dairy industry alone is a billion dollar industry that spends millions in advertising dollars to brainwash people into believing it 'does a body good', What a joke....wake the fuck up.

[macrumpton]

@richorcaonyt I have always thought that it is very curious that we accept the idea of drinking cows milk as something normal. After all how accepting would people be of drinking horse milk or dog milk? People are even squeamish about drinking human breast milk, so the idea that it is ok to drink cows milk is just plain odd.

[stephenw929]

@richorcaonyt The animal protein in eggs, even egg whites only promote a variety of cancers even if it does not have a big negative effect on your cholesterol level.

[MeZillch]

No milk? Yes, no milk, it's not natural from a biological perspective except for babies. Humans are the only animal on the planet that drinks milk past weaning age and the only animal that drinks the milk of another species (usually goat, horse, cow, reindeer, and "yak"). The majority of humans don't drink any milk, at all, BTW, in fact they can't. Lactose intolerance is not only common but rather is the norm for most Asian and African cultures, which make up the bulk of the world population.

[MeZillch]

Q. "Why are they so afraid to say the word "VEGAN". - poster PrimalEarth

A. Because that would be inaccurate according to the extant Vegan Society, UK, which coined the term in the 1940's. Vegans are against the killing of animals for things other than just food (e.g. silk, leather, etc). These proponents are concerned with human health only, not other animal's health and well being to make silk ties and leather shoes.

[PrimalEarth]

Why are they so afraid to say the word "VEGAN".

[amerlionne]

@PrimalEarth thats true, & i think its because so many people relate it to the word "radical"

[harryfeld1]

Remarkable interview. Imagine Clinton trying this during his presidency. Could not have happened then. Meat and dairy industries way too powerful. Answers to this plague are rather simple but no moral courage from the politicians or our health-care system, who are making billions off heart disease, to reveal the truth to the public.  I believe this deterioration of health in our nation is one of the true signs of a nation in decline.

[dandj51408]

Almond milk sounds interesting. Soy Silk is excellent.... It actually taste better than milk. Use it in the recipes where you would use milk. I would recommend it for children if they aren't allergic to soy. Try the fruit and veggie smoothies and watch the difference in your energy. Don't just talk about it, try it and FEEL the difference.

[hughtub]

Cut out processed foods. Eat all the meat, vegetables, fruit and nuts you want. Normal exercise. PERIOD.

[TheKellydupree]

He's promoting a Vegan diet without saying the word Vegan.

About time.

[PassionBurnsInside83]

Good for Bill even though I never cared for him as president. Veganism is the answer to the obesity and health problems we face today. It can also help the enviorment as well. I'm not a liberal democrat, but I am a vegan. I consider myself a libertarian/vegan.

[linuxchimp]

@richorcaonyt : I think you misread my comment. You said "any" milk and I was just asking about soy, since it seems to be the perfect replacement. If there was some data out there about no plant based milks, then I wanted to learn about it. I'm with you - no cow juice.

[ZerozPk]

No meat, barely any fish, no oils, no milk or diary?

I rather have a heart problem and die then not eat that.

[harold333100]

I worked on a man in Santa Fe who had had 2 open heart surgeries. He had parallel scars from his neck to his public bone. His cholesterol was 366 and his doctors had told him he would die on the table if he had to have his ribs cranked open a third time. Trust me, you really wouldn't want that. PS.The man got well on a vegan diet: creamy almond yogurt folded into sliced peaches, avocados, raw pies, nut & seed cheeses, homemade sauerkraut and delicious smoothies. Please save your life; research.

[MLC48]

Way to go Bill!! I've been on this diet for about 6 months and it works. Love the Rice Dream Rice milk..

[lightstarchild]

Finally the world is getting to know the benefits of the VEGAN diet. Go VEGAN to save your life and save the planet!

[12345678900rich]

@lightstarchild sup watch my vids

[ricmkover]

It works,I have been meatless-40 years,dairy less for 15 years.This is the natural food of man.....

live,be healthy,eat well.....no money to doctors,drugs,hospitals.....

[nnojay]

Dr. Esselstyn is the man! Ornish you choked!!!!! Here is the opportunity to get people to see the truth in food addictions and the role that dairy & meat do to us. Dr Esselstyn could have said that we can consume what the fish eat for them to have the beneficial oils ALGAE!!!!! Dr Ornish sucks, you blew it. you suck. Yes I'm angry because I see to many people suffer because corporations have trained us to be their slaves to the foods they are making as a convenience...

[jogibajr]

@nnojay Get a clue pal, Ornish took the baton after Nathan Pritikin and Esselstyn, T. Colin Campbell etc are all on the same page. Go after the Atkins people if you want to bitch about the food factories that are killing people.

[NCVAW]

Thanks for uploading this!!! :)

[linuxchimp]

@richorcaonyt Even plant based "milk" like soy? Just asking because I gave up dairy 10 years ago, and only use soy products in place of cow juice.

[1lillylangtree]

Good for you Bill, unfortunately, it took an illness to convince him that animal based diets will basically kill people and clog arteries, but most people go on and never change, take their pills as prescribed, make big pharma rich and keep eating the food that kills them, but the pills often do the job ,faster.  I hope that others follow suit...

[alienmeetworld]

Ha... Wolf seems to think that there are no 'fun' foods left if you eat a plant based diet... but that is more of a reflection of his lack of familiarity with vegan desserts than anything. A simple google search for "vegan dessert recipes", or reading the dessert section of some vegan cookbooks reveals many hundreds, if not thousands of plant based desserts that rival or beat their animal based counterparts. This is not about deprevation, it is about using different ingredients.

[Mercy4Wildlife]

kUDOS FOR BILL CLINTON!!

[Lisamarie1968]

@richorcaonyt Except for plant-based milks, of course. And although I rather agree with you on the ethics of eating non-fertile hand-gathered yard eggs, they're actually NOT healthy, as they have the same high cholesterol and animal protein as all other animal products and studies have shown they even raise the risk of Type 2 diabetes.

[mmissinglink]

Eating vegan is not only the healthy way to eat, it is the morally responsible and compassionate way as well as no animals are killed solely for a gustatory indulgence as is the case with eating animals' bodily vestiges or fluids (meat and dairy).

[joomlaserviceprovide]

This is a great event! I am proud of Clinton for speaking publicly about this! Explore you own health and experiment with a plant based diet!

[ProtectSouthOssetia]

seems that the consumption of a generous supply of whole grains, legumes, nuts, fruits and vegetables provides protection against chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

I hope that America and the rest of the World would pay attention to this info
