All the things you recommend for protein are defintely not bad, but not the best. They arent all high in protein and they really show the major flaw with eating, a non meat diet.
Take the comparisons - all 100g
Chicken breast has 31g of protein
Beef has 25g of protein
Quinao has 4g of protein
Rice has 3g of protein
The only good thing you recommend was almond. It has 21g of protein!
Quinoa is an Incan super food/protein originated from PERU, highly regarded in that culture for its nutritional benefits. Just a quick fact, Thanks :)
When people ask me this I ask them if they even know how many grams of protein they need. Most don't know. I say that all plants have some protein and the ones that have the most are dried beans, sprouts, quinoa, tempeh, nuts and seeds. I use the opportunity to teach.
It's fun to point out that people can live on plant food only but not on meat only.
I love your suggestion of referring them to The China Study...I'm going to do that. Thanks for all you do.
Kevin, this video is great but, I just want to suggest 1 thing to you- it may be a good idea to allow a lot of those seeds to germinate to the point of sprouting to get the best nutritional value possible- I know that you know sprouts are absolutely amazing for you, so why not do it with all of our seeds? Anyway, great video, I love your information and your ability to present it so well, and, one more thing, I'm Kevin too!!
People in this country will never be protein deficient, you would have to live in a 3rd world country. Leafy greens doesn't only contain a astronomical source of protein but its filled with tons of chlorophyll which allows sufficient oxygen to your blood cells. To all the ignorant ass comments below, get educated and stop being stuck on the potency of stupidity. Peace
Thanks! I'm only 7 weeks into my raw foods/vegan thing and already sick of the question about protein. People seem to really go into a weird fear place and get confused when I tell them what I'm doing. They want to know why I am looking so great but they learn why they seem to think it's WAY too hard or risky for them to try it, themselves... I'd sure like to change that perception.
LMFAO you said Megabytes!!! hahahahahahahahahaaaa omg lmao I loved your video, great info, but you said megabytes..... thats too funny Im seriously lmfao right now!
em the quinoa i put them for 6 to 8 hours it says on wikipedia to sprout them, i dont know what you mean if there is any diffretnce between soaking and sprouting.
I put some in the night to eat in the moring and i can tell you i feeled sick and when i ated the sprouted quinao i feeled so much energy,
Sorry for the bad english i dont feel like correcting my grammar.

"soaking them to break down a little bit so they can be digested easier"
That should be a hint to the more aware that grains are not human food by nature. Unless your stomach can digest it raw, uncooked, unsoaked, and you can chew it without any discomfort or bitter taste, it is not human food.
@ShroedingerWatcher yeah its crazy. First we must understand that we're not 'designed'. (hope you know about evolution) And then we must also understand that it is unclear at what stage exactly humans discovered fire, as soon as he did he started cooking food.
I've heard about evolution theories, listened and read a little about them (because there are a few versions of them from the look of it). They all suggest there is this slow change in the human species, and then other species. But why all the variety then this change anyway?
I wonder how man got the idea to use fire? And I think it is misleading for them to say "man discovered fire" when there are already natural fires of volcanoes. And man has also been killed by them.
@ShroedingerWatcher Evolution is not theory any more, its a fact. Proven many times, many ways. By man discovering fire I meant, man knowing how to ignite one and use it for his own benefit such as scaring other animals away, using for light and cooking
@screenflicker1 How is evolution proven? Man just looks at something new, creates a theory (or theories) then assumes it does something then it goes into discussion, debates and on and on. Just like science in general.
Is it any wonder that conscience is partly "science" as a word? Like Con-science, con man?
And "scientist" used to mean philosopher or philosophy way back then. And philosphers were before just more theorists of some sort.
@ShroedingerWatcher If you want to live your life like a dumb idiot (which you are sounding like right now), ignore hundreds of times proven science. Look up richard dawkins and dig deep. Evolution is a proven fact and please don't discuss this further with me
@ShroedingerWatcher Reality doesn't care about what you like what you don't. For example, if you don't like red color does'nt mean red color doesn't exist. Secondly, you don't understand how evolution works. We didn't come from monkeys, we came from an ancestor that us and the apes shared. We branched. Look it up and face it. Look up Richard dawkins. If you want i can send you a good link
I'll look up Dawkins (I was going to do that before but was too busy on another angle. Will get back to it).
On the monkeys thing, I never suggested we came from any of the apes species, all I know is that I am alive and everyone is restricted by their senses.
At least you didn't call me a creationist as I am also not religious (though that labelling is also flawed).
Quick quinoa question. I bought some organic bulk quinoa last month for the first time and boiled it, and completely loved it. However, it made me violently ill all night. I've heard that some people may have allergies to quinoa's outer coating. Is there a raw way to prepare it so that I don't have to miss out?
They do not feed their cat a vegan diet. If you watch some of the other shows, you will see that they purchase raw ground meats and eggs etc. to feed Johnny 5 :) He eats a carnivorous diet
Good I am glad to hear it . I have heard people say theye make their pets eat vegan too and it bugs me . There are even vegan cat foods out there from what I hear .
why would someone who doesn't want to cause suffering to animals kill animals to feed their pets? Why would a vegan cat food be unhealthy? All animals need amino acids to build the protiens for their bodies. Amino acids are in all plants. Again eating a variety of foods is what is best. My dog did better eating just veggies than he did eating meat. More energy healthier tail even wagged more, and he loved it! You should have seen him beg for steamed squash without butter, he loved it! Peace!

Hate to butt in here but I can't help but ponder on all sides of this:
1. Cats are natural hunters so they are designed to consume certain animals.
2. But some of us know how bad the secrets are behind pet foods, both the cruelty and damages it can cause to cats, dogs and domesticated animals in general (esp farmed animals).
3. I once heard or read up a few vegan pet foods and something on dry varieties. But am still not sure...
3. I once heard or read up a few vegan pet foods and something on dry varieties. But am still not sure.

5. But cats are known to throw up some animals they eat, this says they aren't eating the right animals but their instinct is to hunt. They just don't know the real world they are in. In effect, domestic animals are in the same dietary trouble we are but in their biological version of it...
Dogs are omnivorous; they can survive on a diet of only plant matter. Cats, on the other hand, are unable to synthesize taurine, an essential compound produced by most mammals and not found in plants.
Symptoms of taurine deficiency in cats include blindness, hair and tooth loss, and inflammation of the heart.
Fortunately, all you have to do is look for "Approved by the AAFCO" on your cat food to make sure it contains taurine. Vegan cat foods include synthetic taurine.
Yeah, I don't know why people always think meat is the only source of protein. Too much is bad for you anyway. Most people can get adequate protein just by eating a variety of foods. It's in EVERYTHING.
Awesome feeding the cat real food. I feed mine raw too. He's lost weight and doesn't have any more health problems.
Im a meat Eater I will admit and can never go Vegan or Raw Foodie full Time but I will eat Vegan and Raw food style food too Especially when I have to Cut weight for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Submission Wrestling tournaments it really helps and too I don't feel Sluggish during my fights
@helloguy55 :) then you should call feeding grocery store/cheap pet food to a cat abuse too. i know i do, but most people don't think about that, and you would probably not think twice about seeing a cat owner feed the cat multicoloured kibble - obviously not quality stuff, mostly grain in there, but lots of artificial flavours so it tastes good.
Had no idea you could just soak rice or quinoa vs. boiling it. Not a raw foodie, but I'm open to eating more raw, and it's great to know there's that option.
Good energy, I must say! What about children on a raw vegan diet? I am cinfused about this, because I am going to start eating a raw vegan diet, and I am a momma, & I worry that If I give this food to my daughter, of her getting rickets, or something. I know that raw, vegan is the way to go, its just that I heard about a family that had their kids taken away from them because they were getting rickets, and they were on a strict vegan diet. What sources are good for vitamin b 12? thanks sarah
you ever thought about being flexible and agile instead of having big muscles that arent even that strong and all that extra weight and all that energy you are wasting
what do you have to say about gorillas, im pretty sure they dont eat meat and they are very strong...and btw fat from meat is bad but some fats are good because they are liquid at body temperature like the fat in avocados, body building is just stupid in my opinion, i just wanna be healthy and be good in the sports i love to do, stop checking these videos if all you want is big muscles
What is manly to you? 22 inch arms LMAO. I don't know if you realize this, but really built guys are still considered overweight because they are unnaturally larger than normal. Carbs are good for you if you consume the right ones. Anything white (white or honeywheat bread, white rice, white pasta, the list goes on) is going to suck for your health. Whole wheat products are terrific for you, such as whole grain brown rice.
Yup. Carbs are good. You can lose weight and fat while eating carbs. You just have to eat the right types of carbs and at the right times. Eat low carb meal when you are not so active and moderate - high carb meal when you are active.
FYI, even bodybuilders don't need more than 90 grams of protein. I get 80 grams of protein a day, and I don't even lift seriously. Also, most products with high protein also contain a generous amount of fat. (soybeans, nuts, seeds, milk, meat) Fat from nuts contain healthy fatty acids not like meat or milk fat. That is a common scientific myth that "all fats are created equal."
Maybe you are right. I don´t know. I have seen a short seminar on a dvd with a bodybuilder that talked about nutrition. He said that everybody even those that doesn´t care much about muscles should consume at least 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight.
Vegans & Veges should get these little grain beautys in their diets right now!.Forget the frozen section in your health food shop,the vege burgers n sausages are not only expensive,theres no real goodness happening in them.Get sprouting your seeds n grains & I promise you when you eat them EVERYDAY your energy will rocket.Have fun n eat fresh,n give the Bod some daily exercise.Feel the force.Blessings!!!!

All you have to do is mix these foods with animal protein, veggies, eggs and fruit........ lift weights........and you don't have to be a pencil neck anymore. Of course your on the hemp.....so that's not going to happen. That's fine! this diet makes your GF look good. If I choose? I'll steal her, and kick sand in your face.
(Oh, and when I did consume "high amounts of protein" whether it's animal or plant. My bones were f***ked, and undoing the damage was kind of annoying)
Mother's breast milk has ~1g protein per 100 grams. This is more than enough for infants developing new tissue at the fastest rate of life. Active adults need smaller ratios of protein.
yea i agree, raw foodists should go for more grains etc; its an unnesseccerily restrictive diet IMO. A vegan diet however is great :) some of the best athletes have thrived on one, many bodybuilders have been vegetarian and some of the most enlightened minds of humanity have chose to be vegetarian :) good video! Keep em up
why do people make so much big deal if you are a vegan or a meat eater and what is better or not. People are dfferent, some do a hell good on meat and fats whiles other do great on sprouted grains and vegetable protein. It depends on your blood type, food allergies, and mother passed flora.
People were originally designed for a vegetarian diet but over the past 6000 years since god created us we have evolved to the ability to digest meat. We have developed that ability for eating pleasure not for nutrition and living. Eating meat live is one thing like every other carnivore does but we eat it dead and misnourish ourselves.
A vegetarian diet is great, but eating organic grass fed meat or river caught fish once every week or two boiled or steamed won't be counterproductive to true health.
haha since god created us over the past 6000 years??? What happened before? What a selfish man, all of the world for himself and only after 6000 years he got bored and decided to create humans!!! Mother Earth and all the Universe Energy around us I belive in but you have your beliefs and I have mine... :)
I do agree with the blood type way of living... Again, like that great quote states, One mans Food is another mans Poison!
A vegan diet would probably do us all good, but from what I've seen that's not happening any time soon. If I had to guess why, this would be my explanation. Through our(humans) teen years we usually question the world around us, trying to make sense of it all, developing opinions along the way, eventually(after our college years) we get overwhelmed, and just settle with what we got, not worrying about the things that are wrong with the world around us, only caring about what effects us directly.
Beef, Pork, Chicken, Turkey, Lamb, Eggs, Fish, and any other animal if its cooked right. I love to put my canines to good use.
And I gaurantee a fat med-rare steak tastes a helluva lot better than a damned hemp seed. Come on people, wake up..humans are designed to eat some flesh.
The reasons why I switched my diet (and the reasons why you will change your diet) are because there are too many toxins in the meat and it is too expensive to produce. Right now you are already subsidizing it more than the cost of the bailout every year!
I was a pre diabetic some three years ago. I was overweight by about 10Kg. I tried all of the usual high carb diets like Low Glycemic Index etc etc. to no avail. I came across Dr, Bernteins web site and decided to give low carbohydrate diet a try. This solved my high blood sugar within months and I lost the unwanted 10KG. within a year. I have been the same weight- 68Kg- for the last two years. I can eat as much animal protein as I want. I don't eat bread, rice or pasta.
Easier for the body is just to eat those aminoacids from green vegetables.
What people usually do not understand that animal proteins do not go into your body, human body builds it's own proteins from bare aminoacids. So avoid protein, body does not need it!
uhmmmmm??? have you ever seen a bodybuilder? uhm, we eat anywhere from 400-700 grams of protein a day, and uhhhh? its doing something seeing to how we are weighing up the upper 200's lower 300's at very low bodyfat. uhmmmm.....moral of the story, our bodies absorb animal protein extremely well.
That's why you have to pump huge amounts of animal protein into your body so that at least portion of it will get absorbed. I would be very concerned about your kidneys and bones if you really pump so huge amounts of protein in your body.
By the way, I have some vegan (regular vegans, not raw foodists...) friends who got into body-building, and compared to their non-vegan counterparts, they got as much muscle mass in the same amount of time as non-vegans.
everything supplements wise is equal on the pro bodybuilding stage.....Genetics are the number one factor as to how someone is better than someone else.....Diet is number 2....Diet is the most important aspect you can do something about in bodybuilding. YOu can bet your ass the guys competing over 250-260's are slamming down at minimum 4 pounds of lean meats a day....probably more like 5 with the top guys. some go 600-700.
you totally rock, dude! i just baught 5kg hemp seeds and they are tasty. they are still in their shells so i search a way to break them up. whats the name of the maja gold agaain= couldnt understand (im from germany).
thanks for providing such good info with such a good charisma. rock on , dude!
you dont nee protein. you need amino acids. aminoacids are in every food untill its cooked.
There are people living decades with 10g protein a day and they performance are great and they are healthy and feel awesome. How is that possible? U dont need protein - ok u needed if u want to get sick. 10g a day is enough.

I worked at an alternative health clinic , and I can say with 100 % certainty that the vegans were the sickest people we ever got . Ask Dr. Klinghart in Seattle , he is the most respected detox expert in the world and he will not treat vegans !! After 1200 + vegans showed 0 % success rate after metal poisoning compared to over 60 % rate for his meat eating patients , he realised how horrible the vegan diet is . Many other docors/nutritionists agree .
a vegan diet is very very unhealthy if your a vegan that eat 50,60,70,80 or even 90% percent deadcooked food. If ur a vegan that eat 90% deadcooked foot its more damaging that the standard american diet. Cooking and processing make the food make vegetables nearly as damaging as meat, milk and eggs. If u eat the S.A.Diet u get higher amounts of nutrions the body can turn into what it needs. Raw cooked food got less nutrions to break down into healty nutrions. Healthy living? Eat raw vegan;)
Not white rice thought. of course you can soak it but it won't germinate like whole rices. Try some cargo and black rice! =D good stuffs! Thanks KEVIN , Happy Birfday to yo Broskivich too.
What you would do is sprout or germinate the seed, nut, bean or grain 1ST ,then grind it up 2ND just before eating it. You need all the parts of the seed Intact to grow a seed .Right? In powder form the seed is dying or dead. The benefits come from a Living seed,nut,bean ,grain and so on.
Kevin, tell me what you think of this video You will win any Debate with a Carnivore every time, Guaranteed ! You've been lied to your whole life about Protein, everyone has
All the things you recommend for protein are defintely not bad, but not the best. They arent all high in protein and they really show the major flaw with eating, a non meat diet.
Take the comparisons - all 100g
Chicken breast has 31g of protein
Beef has 25g of protein
Quinao has 4g of protein
Rice has 3g of protein
The only good thing you recommend was almond. It has 21g of protein!
Hemp seed isnt bad. It has 11g of protein.

When I was shown the charts and the diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them;
When I, sitting, heard the nutritionist, where he lectured with much applause in the lecture-room,
How soon, unaccountable, I became tired and sick;
Till rising and gliding out, I wanderd off by myself,
In the mystical cool refrigerator-air, and from time to time,
Lookd up in perfect silence at the jars.

Yeah, I don't know why people always think meat is the only source of protein. Too much is bad for you anyway. Most people can get adequate protein just by eating a variety of foods. It's in EVERYTHING.
Awesome feeding the cat real food. I feed mine raw too. He's lost weight and doesn't have any more health problems.

Im a meat Eater I will admit and can never go Vegan or Raw Foodie full Time but I will eat Vegan and Raw food style food too Especially when I have to Cut weight for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Submission Wrestling tournaments it really helps and too I don't feel Sluggish during my fights

@clambii Raw meat is at least included right? If you're feeding a carnivorous animal only plants, I call that abuse.
helloguy55 1 year ago
@helloguy55 :) then you should call feeding grocery store/cheap pet food to a cat abuse too. i know i do, but most people don't think about that, and you would probably not think twice about seeing a cat owner feed the cat multicoloured kibble - obviously not quality stuff, mostly grain in there, but lots of artificial flavours so it tastes good.

Good energy, I must say! What about children on a raw vegan diet? I am cinfused about this, because I am going to start eating a raw vegan diet, and I am a momma, & I worry that If I give this food to my daughter, of her getting rickets, or something. I know that raw, vegan is the way to go, its just that I heard about a family that had their kids taken away from them because they were getting rickets, and they were on a strict vegan diet. What sources are good for vitamin b 12? thanks sarah

1. Rice has a to high carb to protien ratio
2. Nuts have a too high fat to protien ratio
3. Quinoa is great, but it still has a 35g to 7g carb to protein ratio.
4. Hemp seeds taste like shit, and you have to eat a LOT of them to get 40g protien, but are otherwise great.

MarTin3Z420 2 years ago
what do you have to say about gorillas, im pretty sure they dont eat meat and they are very strong...and btw fat from meat is bad but some fats are good because they are liquid at body temperature like the fat in avocados, body building is just stupid in my opinion, i just wanna be healthy and be good in the sports i love to do, stop checking these videos if all you want is big muscles
MarTin3Z420 2 years ago
What is manly to you? 22 inch arms LMAO. I don't know if you realize this, but really built guys are still considered overweight because they are unnaturally larger than normal. Carbs are good for you if you consume the right ones. Anything white (white or honeywheat bread, white rice, white pasta, the list goes on) is going to suck for your health. Whole wheat products are terrific for you, such as whole grain brown rice.
aboss115music 2 years ago
Yup. Carbs are good. You can lose weight and fat while eating carbs. You just have to eat the right types of carbs and at the right times. Eat low carb meal when you are not so active and moderate - high carb meal when you are active.
BadassMMA 2 years ago
FYI, even bodybuilders don't need more than 90 grams of protein. I get 80 grams of protein a day, and I don't even lift seriously. Also, most products with high protein also contain a generous amount of fat. (soybeans, nuts, seeds, milk, meat) Fat from nuts contain healthy fatty acids not like meat or milk fat. That is a common scientific myth that "all fats are created equal."
aboss115music 2 years ago
Maybe you are right. I don´t know. I have seen a short seminar on a dvd with a bodybuilder that talked about nutrition. He said that everybody even those that doesn´t care much about muscles should consume at least 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight.

Mother's breast milk has ~1g protein per 100 grams. This is more than enough for infants developing new tissue at the fastest rate of life. Active adults need smaller ratios of protein.

why do people make so much big deal if you are a vegan or a meat eater and what is better or not. People are dfferent, some do a hell good on meat and fats whiles other do great on sprouted grains and vegetable protein. It depends on your blood type, food allergies, and mother passed flora.
videopete1 3 years ago
People were originally designed for a vegetarian diet but over the past 6000 years since god created us we have evolved to the ability to digest meat. We have developed that ability for eating pleasure not for nutrition and living. Eating meat live is one thing like every other carnivore does but we eat it dead and misnourish ourselves.
videopete1 3 years ago
A vegetarian diet is great, but eating organic grass fed meat or river caught fish once every week or two boiled or steamed won't be counterproductive to true health.

A vegan diet would probably do us all good, but from what I've seen that's not happening any time soon. If I had to guess why, this would be my explanation. Through our(humans) teen years we usually question the world around us, trying to make sense of it all, developing opinions along the way, eventually(after our college years) we get overwhelmed, and just settle with what we got, not worrying about the things that are wrong with the world around us, only caring about what effects us directly.

The reasons why I switched my diet (and the reasons why you will change your diet) are because there are too many toxins in the meat and it is too expensive to produce. Right now you are already subsidizing it more than the cost of the bailout every year!

OK VEGAN whiz kids.
I was a pre diabetic some three years ago. I was overweight by about 10Kg. I tried all of the usual high carb diets like Low Glycemic Index etc etc. to no avail. I came across Dr, Bernteins web site and decided to give low carbohydrate diet a try. This solved my high blood sugar within months and I lost the unwanted 10KG. within a year. I have been the same weight- 68Kg- for the last two years. I can eat as much animal protein as I want. I don't eat bread, rice or pasta.
ernietube1 3 years ago
Humans do not NEED PROTEIN.
All proteins are broken down into aminoacids.
Easier for the body is just to eat those aminoacids from green vegetables.
What people usually do not understand that animal proteins do not go into your body, human body builds it's own proteins from bare aminoacids. So avoid protein, body does not need it!
bujinkanatori 3 years ago 2
uhmmmmm??? have you ever seen a bodybuilder? uhm, we eat anywhere from 400-700 grams of protein a day, and uhhhh? its doing something seeing to how we are weighing up the upper 200's lower 300's at very low bodyfat. uhmmmm.....moral of the story, our bodies absorb animal protein extremely well.
MarkovnikovismyDUDE 3 years ago
That's why you have to pump huge amounts of animal protein into your body so that at least portion of it will get absorbed. I would be very concerned about your kidneys and bones if you really pump so huge amounts of protein in your body.
By the way, I have some vegan (regular vegans, not raw foodists...) friends who got into body-building, and compared to their non-vegan counterparts, they got as much muscle mass in the same amount of time as non-vegans.

I worked at an alternative health clinic , and I can say with 100 % certainty that the vegans were the sickest people we ever got . Ask Dr. Klinghart in Seattle , he is the most respected detox expert in the world and he will not treat vegans !! After 1200 + vegans showed 0 % success rate after metal poisoning compared to over 60 % rate for his meat eating patients , he realised how horrible the vegan diet is . Many other docors/nutritionists agree .

a vegan diet is very very unhealthy if your a vegan that eat 50,60,70,80 or even 90% percent deadcooked food. If ur a vegan that eat 90% deadcooked foot its more damaging that the standard american diet. Cooking and processing make the food make vegetables nearly as damaging as meat, milk and eggs. If u eat the S.A.Diet u get higher amounts of nutrions the body can turn into what it needs. Raw cooked food got less nutrions to break down into healty nutrions. Healthy living? Eat raw vegan;)

vad7771 3 years ago
What you would do is sprout or germinate the seed, nut, bean or grain 1ST ,then grind it up 2ND just before eating it. You need all the parts of the seed Intact to grow a seed .Right? In powder form the seed is dying or dead. The benefits come from a Living seed,nut,bean ,grain and so on.
