Hey Zak, I have to say that I admire you for keeping to your research and staying true to your beliefs and what works for you. I've been vegan for two months now and feel fantastic. All I can say is that it works for me. I don't know if YOU know this but Mr. Brandon Cintron has now changed his tune - he now does eat meat and dairy. Thought you would find that interesting. Keep up the good work.
Sorry Zak, I know I didn't provide any studies or evidence of any kind. As it says in my opening, this is my opinion, and yes, it works for me, but not necessarily others. I was very surprised that you threatened to block me for sharing my opinion. Please don't do that. I will comply to your format & try to keep things scientifically based & supported. Unfortunately, there is not much in the way of studies yet as raw foodism is still a relatively new or at least revised cultural paradigm.
@justsitthere100 I didn't threaten to block you for sharing your opinion I threatened to block you for wasting my time as I have done with people in the past. I spend hours researching my videos to provide references and when someone doesn't read them (or even watch the whole video to know about them) and posts something that I've already addressed it's completely ignorant of them.
It is my opinion/hypothesis that, although there will likely be a temporary benefit from eating animal foods and that it can have a therapeutic value for some, that in the long term this practice will weaken the constitution as it will hinder our ability to transform precurser nutrients found in plant foods into useable nutrients comparable to those found in animal foods. They were able to produce these nutrients and so can many humans. Also, it is simply bad karma to be killing animals.
@justsitthere100 It's actually the oposite, most people are unable to convert enough of these precursors to the complete forms as is indicated in the studies I linked to in the drop down menu.
As for karma, don't let another belief system control you, please watch this video of mine: /watch?v=vP9V1OctOtE
@SecretsOfLongevity Maybe you're right about most people not converting enough precursers, but I haven't had a problem as a vegetarian for the last 34 years. I explicitly ask for detailed blood tests, and so far, things keep coming up within optimal ranges. Oh, it's not a belief in karma so much as an understanding. Every healthy sentient being wants to live. Besides, I've found no reason to eat my friends. It will only provide inferior nutrition. The Hippocrates diet is best, don't you think?
@justsitthere100 That's great if it works for you but you are ONE person, you can't expound what works for just you as being optimal for everyone. That is correlation and not causation. Scientific studies (are supposed to) deal with causation.
No I definitely do not think the Hippocrates diet is best, not is any one diet "the best".
I wanted to respond to the meat causing tooth decay. This can happen. The determinant is the PH factor. That is why meat or fruit in excess can cause this. Again, I inviet you to personally discuss these matters with me further. Unfortunately, I've not yet found the time to explore the use of twitter, etc. but you can email me. Reno raaquino@hotmail.com. I don't propose to be a know it all, but I have been a vegan for the most part for abojut 34 years and am 50 years of age.
@justsitthere100 IN THIS video I already gave a link to my video that clearly shows how the ph value of foods affecting your body's ph is a complete myth. Meat has NEVER been shown in any scientific journal to cause tooth decay. If you know of a specific example please do post it instead of quoting the rhetoric of vegan propagandists.
@SeasonViolet Please to elaborate on what you perceive as me being egotistical because I stuck with the facts here. A common perception of someone who has no factual and logical basis for their belief system is to dimiss conflicting information as being invalid for some reason just because it makes them uncomfortable. If this is not the case make a video response deconstructing my stance or my attitude and I'd be happy to respond.
The length of ur vidz is really bad for people with ADD. Which is this generation. We're living N a soundbite age & ur making videos like people have the time, patience & attention control of a guy in a coma? ADD has been claimed to be a "normal human instinct/behavior" since the dawn of man for protection as a defense and hunting. I doubt you could sit an early man down and watch your videos. (Constructive criticism, I promise. Cuz I try to watch for the info and ur looks--but cant).
@insidexistance Take some BrainON to increase your attention span then. I make videos to educate, not entertain. Our ancestors had very long attention spans, it's modern lifestyles, advertising and the instant gratification culture that has resulted in the intelectual regression that has led to shorter attention.
@SecretsOfLongevity I don't use products with catchy names thanks. You putting down this brilliant hypothesis in this comment makes you lose all credibility of your other videos for me, sadly--I truly wanted to know the context. You should google some info on what is called the "Hunter vs. Farmer" theory for ADHD/ADD. I doubt our ancestors had the nerve to sit and read a book while a wolf was running towards them, or if your christian (world = 1000s yrs old), getting whipped by their master.
@insidexistance don't judge a book by it's cover, check out my video on E3live. If you complain on my videos about a problem you have you're going to get my solution for it. Take it or leave it. Your arrogant attitude combined with no references (please do post them) is not tolerated on my channel. Shape up or ship out.
@SecretsOfLongevity Then what are covers for? jk... on a serious note, MY arrogant attitude? I'm giving you constructive criticism, you're videos are longer than my biology lectures where in college! And there I was at least able to learn because the teacher wasn't talking in circles, being repetitive, unorganized and saying lots of redundant things...
@insidexistance Posting on multiple videos (even one's that are 2 years old where my presentation skills are quite different then they are now) that you feel my videos are too long and you don't understand them etc, is not constructive criticism, it's being rude. While I occasionally get people asking for short videos (of which I make many, someone can simply choose to watch a different topic if they don't like the few longer ones that I make) you're the first person to say I'm unorganized, lol.
@SecretsOfLongevity I spent about an hour and a half on one of ur 20 min videos trying to organize it to understand it. I don't have a handicap, you seem to not work well with others.So is it I that is arrogant? Or you that cant take constructive criticism and organize ur videos using bullet points and editing? ::Shipping out:: ::imagining ads/commercials being 20 mins long with ppl talking in circles, being redundant, going off in tangents, getting defensive & repeating words over and over::
@insidexistance If you take an hr and a half to understand a 20 min video, believe me, the problem isn't in my presentation skills! I gladly take in constructive criticism, anyone putting out content online does, but you're just acting ridiculous. No one giving constructive criticism goes to the length you do of saying everything about what someone does is bad: "talking in circles, being redundant, going off in tangents, getting defensive & repeating words over and over"...
@82Bdog I totally agree, I don't recommend the use of supplements either. In Canada E3live is registered as a food by Health Canada, which IS what it is. Edible algae has been consumed for over 6,000 years by some indigenous cultures and many anthropologists have attributed those unique cultures that do have a superior level of health because of it. But if you don't like the taste or something that's cool.
anybody that wants to find all the flaws in what this guy says, go on drmcdougalldotcom click on the forum and start reading any topics by jeff novick.
Whats with the satanic fecking opening with the two snakes and shit... crazy pale unhealthy guy... it's not a personal attack it's just saying what is obviously true. Your pale... your eyes look like you have been killed... by that I mean you seem to have no life in your eyes. You look ill... what the hell are you eating?
@durianrider Lol I made a response to you over a year ago and you didn't accept it. No personal attacks were in it, just me addressing the gaping holes your logic and lack of scientific credibility. Of course I'm going to tell friends of mine to stand up for themselves and explain what I would do if I was in their position. If you made a video mentioning me I'd have no problem with it. If you made a video using my material damn right I'd be pissed off as anyone should be.
Best of luck for everyone on there journey, I'am currently studying biodiversity and conservation as a major in science, I sincerely hope people wake up to the destruction of the biosphere and earth in general related the animal industry and ditch the out of sight, out of mind train of thought adopted by many westernised people. Soon enough diet will be the least of our worries regarding health if the planet is not addressed. Have fun arguing.
Meat, Fish, Dairy just does not suit some people. I gain weight from even small quantities of these foods consumed on a semi-regular basis. Those foods constipate me even in small amounts. Eggs do not give me any energy, nor do fish. As a child I did not desire these foods but automatically went for breads and potatoes. Cheese is particularly useless. Raw organic cheese is so addictive that in the days I was actually eating it I would go through 3 blocks like an addict. Caso-morphines!
"During convalescence unusually large amounts of raw beef, carrots and beets were eaten. The demand for increased amounts of raw beef and carrots can be easily accounted for but we are still curious about that for beets, and inclined to wonder whether they may furnish an anti-anaemic substance"
Nobody forced these children to consume such foods. They simply acted of their own volition, when given a wide range of varied foodstuffs. Raw beef was a staple food preferred by infants in all cases.
@thimsile, I dont care about studies, show me REAL WORLD results, this is what counts. Studies are bullshit, especially studies funded by the individuals who have their best interest at hand. People can interpret studies to suit their needs. Merck's "studies" said Vioxx was safe, then later got pulled off the market for killing people. Do your homework son, studies ARE flawed and manipulated, manipulation and lies is not SCIENCE. There was even a segment on CNN exposing studies so go back to bed
@CarnivoreJuice, he bud, I am going to take Dr.morse online course, and want to go in person to his school aswell next year, Maybe I'll see ya there! Exactly, how does it not make sense? Does it make sense to get healthy by eating dead animal flesh, and their milk? Cant people see this is contributing to their health decline? What gives you health, maintains health, you just need to eat MORE when you are healthy. Yes Dr.Morse herbs are great combined with fruits, glad you are having good result!
@DoubleRawStar Apparently dead animal tissue equates to a healthy human body. My family has been freaking out about the "nutritional deficiencies" I'll develop from not consuming meat. They SEE me getting better and better with their own bare eyes. And even some of them suffer common conditions as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, pains, fatigue etc., yet they will not listen to me.
I don't know. Maybe herbs and fruits is just too simple for them. Amazing, isn't it?
@CarnivoreJuice Continue on for three generations of humans. You won't live to see it, but it shall serve a "fruitful" experiment for the human condition. You judge your progress upon the wearisome bones of relatives who eat cooked animal foods from conventional animals. Anyone adopting an enzyme rich diet shall see benefits associated with such choices.
@redmeatheart, If you have too many people claiming to be healed than you know what the government will try and do, they will shut you down or possibly try and take you out. Thats why Hippocrates Institute has kept their finding under wraps, even though Dr.Morse has many people come to him after going to Hippocrates with no results. Once you understand and learn how the body works, then you will see Dr.Morse is on the money. These diseases are not a mystery anymore. I have taken his herbs myself
@DoubleRawStar And you're right on the money too. I'm about to set off on my next detox kit from God's herbs. These are powerful combined with the fruits. Love them. I've had tremendous results so far.
I plan on going to Dr. Morse's school next year. It'll be wonderful.
And consider this for a moment... Dr. Morse or no Dr. Morse; how does it NOT make sense to use fresh fruits, vegetables and herbs to heal yourself anyway?
@redmeatheart, Dr.morse has had a few people leave their testimonials on his channel, one lady with stage 4, one lady with MS who here husband made a video of her walking again, one woman who went to his school were her baby son almost died, one old man where you can see pictures of a tumour and condition on his leg shrinking and getting better, along with many past patients coming to his class to speak in person. Remember you have to be VERY careful when it comes to getting people better.
I'd just like to say although i don't agree with you sometimes Zack, i respect you wholeheartedly as a man, because many people in the raw food community cannot deal with criticism. Durianrider and Matt Monarch as an example, will block or ban anyone that questions their philosophy even minutely. thank you for being the opposite and allowing people the freedom of speech.
@redmeatheart No problem, I appreciate the level headed thinking, something that I don't see from the critics often :p Both of those whom you just mentioned have yet to approve a video response I have made, even when one of them openly claims he's up for debating anyone.
@redmeatheart, Fruits contain glucose aswell, but more fructose. To get most of your calories from nuts and seeds is not natural or healthy, and if you are lucky will get no more than 200 calories from green leafs. So where would we get the rest of our calories from? Exactly, fruit. You guys are WAY off base. 80-10-10 is right on, maybe you can go 15% on the fat. I had weak adrenals in the past and high fruit low fat worked the best for no, no blood sugar problems as weak adrenals would cause.
@DoubleRawStar and where wud u find all this fruit ??? thank god theres stores that sell fruit to u , bcuz u wud NEVER find all this fruit to live off!
@redmeatheart, you are working your body harder by eating high greens and high fats because greens contain mostly glucose and you need more insulin and cortisol to metabolize them. Fats will be converted into glucose aswell at the expense of more energy and ketosis, which creates acidosis. In the topics we would get most calories from fruit. Protein spikes the blood sugar and insulin, not fruit sugar, unless you have other undigested junk in your body then add fruit on top of it.
@redmeatheart, sorry but your wrong. When the fat intake is low insulin does not spike high from fruit and maybe not even with high fat intake. Fructose from fruits doesnt need insulin to carry it into the cells. Type 1 diabetics have got off insulin on fruit. Please contact Dr.Morse because he gets people better on high fruit with herbs. I am thankful for him because all the other guru's I followed were not at his level and my personal results aswell confirm this. Lou has nothing on Dr.Morse.
The maasai tribe eat mostly wild hunted meats and have the lowest life expectancy in the world at 42 for males, Eskimo's have a life expectancy of 45 years living off a mostly meat based diet. It's well known and documented the nutrients and phytochemicals in a plant based diet give the body the antioxidants needed to fight aging and increase longevity. The Okinawan life expectancy is 82 for males and 86 for females, the mass majority of their diet is plant based.
@redmeatheart I cover that on in this video: /watch?v=rkt1jt3TGn4
While I wouldn't look to either of those two cultures for longevity, they are not a reason to blame animal foods for ill-health as there are too many other factors affecting their lifespan potential and bringing it down.
@redmeatheart Your statistics of longevity refer to modern observations. These people live in harsh environments & have been subject to the domesticated values of commerce for hundreds of years now. Okinawa means "island of pork" & the older generations had access to copious quantities of the pig & boar which had populated the islands in the distant past. I assure you that if we were to follow modern generations we'd note their vitality waning well in advance of any current "life expectancy".
Wait I confused. For the first study it says "In conclusion, increased red meat consumption is cross-sectionally associated with greater risk of metabolic syndrome and inflammation." Did you even read the study or what? Also "Furthermore,
metabolic syndrome and its components (high serum triacylglycerol
LOL, well youtube should allow for more comments in a single post. Some people have a lot to say. I dont want to argue or debate anymore on the internet, I prefer real live debates with living proof examples to back things up. We are both young and have not done this a respectable amount of years. I have seen healthier people who were/are raw vegan, and people improving their health dropping the animal foods to nothing or no more than 5-10% of the diet. Hopefully you stay in good health bud!
And I'm sure eating salmon once in a great while is enough to receive the health benefits from it right? Just like drinking a fresh green juice once in a great while, or taking a vitamin D supplement once in a great while is enough to receive the health benefits from it right? LOL. Just like eating ice cream once in a great while, or eating Mcdonalds once in a great while, isnt enough to cause a problem either, unless you are really sick. Consistant habits build or reduce your health. Nice try!
Peter has been raw vegan for what, around 30-40 years? So what if he just recently decided to play around with some animal foods, do you not think that his good health was attributed to the 30-40 years he was vegan, or is it attributed to the recent 2 years you claim he started playing with animal foods? Sound ridiculous to you? Really stupid is how that sounds. Steroids can give you 10 pounds of muscle to, doesnt mean they are good for you. Too bad peter decided to clog his lymphatic system up!
@SecretsOfLongevity, can you send me the link that stated he drinks raw goats milk, colostrum, and eggs? Because there is a recent 2011 youtube interview where he states he's vegan and eats no animal foods. And I hope its not coming from Brent Myers mouth. Sure you can put on muscle with animal foods if you eat enough calories, just like you can put on muscle on a vegan diet with enough calories. Doing anything once in a while wont kill you, doesnt make it healthy or the best choice.
@18:30 or he starts talking about colostrum. He doesn't discuss the goat milk or eggs in this one I guess, perhaps it's in the other interview on the site.
@DoubleRawStar Peter's great :) In the past 2 years since he's put on another 10+ lbs of muscle and he openly attributes it to the addition of raw goat milk, small amounts of eggs and Surthrival's colostrum. I also heard him talk about eating salmon once in awhile now on an interview on One Radio Network.
My point is the majority of people can have a good looking body even as they get older if they eat mostly real whole foods and workout, but does that equal health? Marcus patrick is almost 40 years old and has absolutely no bodyfat, should he look like he is 20 years old forever? The guy has crazy vitality period.
How the body looks physically is in BIG part to how well your glands are working to produce hormones. I can shoot you up with even a low end dose of Testosterone, HRT doses, and you can lift weights and eat just bananas if you get enough calories, and build muscle. When I think back even at 18 I was naturally big and jacked and never at more than 60 grams of protein from animals. I ate 3 meals per day, one of those meals was vegan, the other tuna, and some chicken fingers which were mostly fat.
I've been doing physical work for 10 years aswell as mental creative work, and NOTHING improves my performance and recovery better than high fruit, and fruit/vegetable juices, and herbs. Not to mention my already high sex drive is higher on the high fruit low fat. if your glands are healthy ( use herbs ), and you eat enough calories and work out, you will be muscular, I am living proof. Do you guys want to look like Mr.Universe? Zak is not muscular or big at all and he eats animal foods.
Fruit sugar is not your enemy with type 2 diabetes. Use herbs for your adrenals and pancreas, and keep the fat low. You may glucose load initially but you will balance out. Keep even the greens low if your adrenals and pancreas are that weak. A lot of people can fix their diabetes type 2 eating a more balanced diet of even some animal foods and exercise, the best way is mostly fruits with herbs, then can add in more fats, veg, nuts,ect, as your glands get stronger. Fruit being bad is ridiculous!
Your conclusions are your own, whatever. It's your snidey style and slight smiles as if to say 'haha what do you think of THAT point' . Your videos are like watching an ego trailing off your theoretical ideas occasionally backed up by some weak study or limited personal experience. You conclude so much based on so little. That's what i don't like..
To think you need to eat different foods to build health, than to maintain health is pure stupidity. What made you healthy, will KEEP you healthy. You just need to eat MORE to maintain sufficient calories and health. What builds muscle, MAINTAINS muscle, and that is heavy weight, not light weight with more reps which was proven to be wrong. Drugs make you sicker when you are healthy, and sicker when you are sick. I'm done here please do your own research and live your own experience.
@vad7771, we have been eating fruits and vegetables/plant foods for a lot longer than meat eating and in much larger quantites , these was the first foods for man. If you study biochemistry our bodies were designed to thrive off of plant foods, mostly fruits. I used to spend a LOT of money on organic grass fed animal products, no comparison to high fruit with herbs, some cultures nuts/seeds, and green leafs. What builds health maintains health! Duh!
I've more than got my point across here. Let the readers decide. People can survive doing things that are not the best for them. the human body is always trying its hardest to survive and is an amazing machine. I want to thrive, not survive. Daniel Vitalis is hardly thriving. He looks like a sad eater and looked better as a vegan aswell. maybe he should have eaten enough calories instead of trying to survive off of kale, olive oil, and coconut oil. He just wanted to make money.
There is MORE than enough supporting evidence to support that fruits and vegetables are healthier than animal foods, and that animal foods cause health decline. I have posted links. Lets see you vs Dr.Nick Delgado and both of you bring your evidence to the talbe. He studied with a great health educator for 30 years and has WAY more clinical experience and is WAY more educated and knowledgabe than you. He also holds a world record for most over head lifts at 50 years old! Lets see you do that!
Humans have not been eating meat for 2 million years. It is generally accepted that cooking only began about 250k years ago. Humans were never eaters of raw meat unless starving. The human species originated in the tropics, eating fruits, nuts, seeds, flowers, etc. Examining human physiology it is clear that our body is not designed as a carnivore or even an omnivore. Meat is only appetizing covered in sauces & spices, certainly not in it's natural state.
@jgfergus Our bodies are omnivorous. We have canine teeth for tearing meat; they'd do us no good if we were purely vegetarians. You'll notice that true vegetarians, like horses and cows, don't have canines.
vegetarian animals have very long digestive tracts, and carnivores have short ones. Ours are right between the two.
its realyhard to say how mutch meat was consumed, but we arenot supposed to be vegans, not anymore not ever maybe. But i dont think we were made to only eat meat,
@vad7771 I guess you forgot that we're not vegetarians (herbivores) either. We're frugivores. Where is our larger liver and shorter colon, like omnivores, to handle meat better before it putrefies? How much do we have in common with omnivores if you compare how we look?
@CarnivoreJuice like i said, we have of a digestive tract adapted to both meat and plants, midway between carnivores and herbivores.
IT would make sens if we eat everything in moderation, plants and meat (or other animal products). and no you dont have to look like a lion or wolf to be a omnivorous. chimpanzees eat meat
@DoubleBlindStudy "Would you eat raw, unprepared organs? Eyes? brain? liver?"
I do this weekly. I've ingested a 100% raw diet incorporating copious amounts of raw animal foods for the last 6 years.
"STRONG anti-killing instincts like humans normally do?"
Which humans are you referring to? Modern domesticated humans insulated from nature? The kind of humans that have wisdom teeth removed, braces employed & breathe through their mouths? The kind w/ receding hairlines, body hair & moles?
I once thought the same. Once I really examined the human physiology it was obvious that humans are frugivores by design. We do not have long canine teeth. Nor do we have teeth like the herbivores (horses, cows, etc). We are most like primates (apes) who eat mainly fruits, nuts, seeds, veggies & herbs. We do not resemble omnivores like birds, pigs, dogs & bears. Fruit is the only food we savor in it's natural state. All other foods must be processed/cooked before they are palatable.
@jgfergus Dear jgfergus. Primates still swing from limbs. Humans bypassed the need for arduous and time-consuming morphology associated with development of claws and fangs. Why? Because we have finely-tuned appendages which can grasp objects and coalesce tools. We have copious grey matter (although it has diminished immensely in the past millennium) for procuring the most cholesterol-rich foodstuffs. You have your entire genetic ancestral lineage to thank for their intake of animal foods.
@InnateReality "You have your entire genetic ancestral lineage to thank for their intake of animal foods."
Nope....our consumption of animal foods represents only a short moment in our overall history on this planet. We only started consuming animal foods once we migrated out of the tropics and learned how to use fire about 200k years ago. Then as now, not many humans would choose raw meat over a juicy piece of fruit. Meat is only palatable cooked with copious amounts of flavorings.
@jgfergus 200k?!?! Wrong. Try 2.6 million years ago. And before that we've always been consuming animal foods just in smaller quantities. I lay it all out with references in this video here: /watch?v=58c1KLFhBaI
So you found some studies on the internet did you?
Don't believe everything you read on the internet. You have swallowed the myths about humanity's origins. Our ancestors were not even on this planet 2.6M years ago. The archeological evidence you cite, was not from our ancestors. Sorry!
@jgfergus LOL! Don't believe everything you read on the internet? You can't believe anything you read anywhere but with logic, reasoning and good references you can sift out what legitimate form what's not. Just by you saying "our ancestors were not even on this planet 2.6 million yrs ago"?!?!?! You're one of these outlandish no science to back them up evolution deniers. Ok, that's great but I don't waste time trying to convince closed minded idiots like you about what's science and what's not.
@jgfergus "not many humans would choose raw meat over a juicy piece of fruit"
It's odd human behavior to flippantly toss around statements such as this without any form of experiential reasoning to support them. Sounds like regurgitated 3rd party propaganda to me :) Have you considered the conditioning of the modern human populace? Apparently not, based upon this statement: "Meat is only palatable cooked w/ copious amounts of flavorings." Go contemplate & observe the Inuit and Nenet peoples.
@InnateReality whoa! that's a fascinating, albeit old, study. so 48/35/17 is the optimal carb/fat/protein percentage. and that was wild about naturally choosing raw meat, carrots, & beets when recovering from illness.
If I may be honest, I think Markus looked a lot healthier a couple of years ago. He is getting way too skinny. This is especially evident in his gaunt looking face. I wish him well in his experiment and hope that he listens to his body as time goes on.
@SecretsOfLongevity, well then it is only your OPINION that those studies showing health decline in people in certain countries from eating meat and dairy was from other possible lifestyle factors, and not from the animal foods they consumed. The authors of those studies came to that conclusion. Watch all of Dr.Nick Delgado videos because in all of his lectures he cites numerous large studies coming to the conclusion of the negative health effects of animal foods. He is WAY more qualified than u
Zak, i think you are a good guy and I apologize for swearing, but you have been seriously lead down the wrong path. You looked younger and healthier as a vegan too. We can probabbly get away with eating very small quantities of animal foods, but that doesnt mean we arent damaging our health by it in small quantites aswell. Fruits dont damage our health at all no matter how much we eat, and is only health giving. Everybody knows fruitts, veg, and herbs are the healthiest and most nutritious foods
If we needed a knife or spear, we would have been born with them, if we needed an oven we would have been born with one, if we needed clothes we would have been born with them on,ect. Every living thing is born with everything it needs to survive. We were also meant to live and thrive in the tropics, so we dont need fire, clothes, cars, computers,ect, to survive. We can climb the tree and pick off the fruits, nuts, green leaves,ect. Meat was only for survival of nothing else was available.
To the poster of the red meat having carnosine. It is just as natural to take a vegan live raw sourse of carnosine supplement, as it is to make a weapon in the wild, use it to kill an animal, then start a fire to process and cook that dead animal. Even if you eat that animal raw using your bare hands and "canine" teeth tear into the flesh. But I'm sure you just buy "packaged" meat at the supermarket and cook it, which isnt natural. Every living this is born with exactly what it needs to survive.
Longevity is useless without vitality. Vitality is the key. Lowering calories and calorie restricting may increase longevity, but will lower vitality. Whats the point? People are already having longevity, but they are suffering with no vitality. If you focus on having overall vitality and you have that everyday, then that should mean you are healthy and will have good longevity as a result. Do you want to live untill 130 looking like a shrivelled up california raisin and not being able to see?
I want to be able to TALK to those people who ran those studies and talk to some of their patients before I beleive them. Why dont the people who conducted those studies start a youtube channel so we can ask them and their patients questions on how their meat eating diet improved their health? Untill I am able to do that sorry but I am going with what has been proven clinically by people I can talk to that works, and going with what I FEEL, look, and preform the best on. Fruits and herbs!
"The study says, the study says"! Haha. How about all the people who improve their health and preformance by dropping animal foods, increasing fruits and veg, and take it a step further by adding in the right herbs? People need to look hard and try and find the people who have been doing this for 30-40 years, and are actually having good success with people that can be verified, and follow THOSE people, not ridiculous studies funded by the meat and dairy industry done by god knows who.
I'm so bored of the Durianrider fan club. Not everyone can thrive on a vegan diet long term. If that were the case we would have more examples in history of healthy long term vegans. And I'm sorry, but Doug Graham does not look healthy to me. Enjoy your modern-day experiment called raw veganism, but don't try to tell me that eating organic animal products is not ethical or healthy.
@eatenbytheworms Not every long term vegan makes youtube videos or write books. But 2 examples that are easily found on youtube are Brain Clement and Lou Corona.
The BOTTOM line is that a young guy in his mid 20's sitting behind his computer searching and pointing to studies, without any real world clinical experience is laughable at best, and dangerous for the people who have no common sense or are uneducated in the real world. "Well look at what this study says, it means I'm right and this is an absolute fact", " even though I have no real world proof or longterm experience with others I know or myself to back it up, that study says so"! LOL.
@DoubleRawStar "Well look at what this study says, it means I'm right and this is an absolute fact" - Nowhere have I ever stated this. As I always say, make a rebuttal video and bring evidence to support your stance. What I am against is OPINION based arguments when it's is very easy to bring some supporting evidence to the table.
Yes...a guy in his mid 20's telling us how to attain longevity? Give me a break!
My health problems didn't start showing up until I was 30, and I know how pathetic my diet was. So Zak may do much better given the fact that the diet he promotes is far superior to the SAD. But....all that protein & fat (been there...done that) will eventually take it's toll on him whether he believes it or not.
In my opinion, SOL has made health about so-called "scientific studies" and passing off as facts the opinions of others in books and internet websites. It's like the results of real people in the real world don't matter to him. Just because some vegans are off base doesn't make SOL on point!
How come when I go to your site you have all this stuff about how great vegan and vegetarianism is, but you believe those are unhealthy diets? I'm a little confused. Do you need to update your website?
@jgfergus, I have never heard of that either, and maybe in 5% of the time you will, but not in 95% of the time. People LIE to either sell you something, or to suit their purpose. For example somebody I know from somewhere let it slip that they had gout and took meds, but then later claimed that they ate meat and had no health problems. So Gout is not a health condition? LOL. Getitng better from raw dead animal flesh and milk makes zero. It WILL throw you out of detox and make you feel better!
@TheAnswerIsWithinYou, you are absolutely correct with what you said about having the appropriate culturing medium for parasites. A healthy host will not allow them to live, even Dr.Cassar says this. Once you get your health and vibration up, these low level vibration creatures cant survive and leave you.
Lower bodyfat means lower subcutaneous fat all over including the face,which can make you look older no matter what you eat. If you want to increase subcutaneous fat on the face then apply copper peptide cream on the face. Take a look at skin biologies products. Some people have nice looking skin no matter what they do, but they still get sick and die if they dont follow natures rules. Either that or they are on meds and suffer into old age with problems. Fruit and veg for the win!
lastly, its not all about food either, lifestyle has a big impact aswell. Doug does a lot of work aswell as training and is in the sun a lot. People only "look" healthy because they have clear, thick, nice looking skin on their fac that contains subcutaneous fat . Its called collagen, elastin, and subcutaneous fat . Some people produce more than others despite what they eat, just like certain people wont get certain diseases no matter what they eat, or how much they smoke.
Also, you people need to stop looking at Doug Graham and saying all that fruit sugar aged him, and high fruit sugar causes "glycation". Why? Because he doesnt produce the collagen and elastin of a 20 year old? He was 0 bodyfat, which means lower estrogen production, with also lower HGH levels due to age, which means lower collagen production. At 60 he will still out preform ANY of you guys here and I'll bet his blood is healthier too. So I guess thats why his "glycated" body can preform so good!
If bananas cause inflammation and spike blood sugar, then Durianriders blood tests would show that to be the case, and he has no inflammation. he and other people on youtube have tested their blood sugar before, and after a high fruit "sugar" meal like 10 or more bananas, and blood glucose was only raised a tiny bit within normal range, becaus they do lower fat. Seems like the only thing the animal foods did for you zak was give you an ego for some reason. Good luck with that in the real world.
@DoubleRawStar A healthy person could eat a cheeseburger and their blood sugar levels will not go up significantly because they're body create's insulin to keep it steady, thats it's purpose. Here's the elephant in the room that 80/10/10ers don't talk about, how much insulin does that food cause you to make? all high sugar foods cause the body to create insulin, doesn't matter if it's fruit or otherwise. Lou corona is the best example of health on a raw vegan diet, high greens, high fat.
The people who follow nature always look better into older age, preform better, and are in better health. So throw that glycation bullshit out the window and open your eyes. The majority of raw vegans look younger and most importantly are healthier into older age than their animal eating counterparts. Compare a high fruit eater to a high sugar junk food eater, and then tell me about glycation. Most non raw vegans look like shit past 40, and they do not eat high fruit! Zak please wake up bro!
Not only are there vegan sourses of carnosine, and other "hyped up" antioxidants, but leaving out the red meat will still leave you in a better health position than eating just to get the carnosine lol. I see plenty of meat eaters who look like shit into their 40's and beyond and the carnosine is not doing them any favours. Look at all the anti-aging doctors over 40, they ALL look like shit even ray kurzweil who takes over 200 supplement pills daily. Compare them to the older raw vegans.
Dr.Nick Delgado cites PLENTY of studies showing how meat and dairy are destructive to your health. He also adresses the bullshit glycemic index and he even the people who did it orifginally admitted were wrong because anything over 30 grams of fat in the diet increases the glycemic index of carbs. I suggest watching all his vids, even if he does push his products a bit he cites a LOT of studies.
Anyone know of anyone who healed their chronic disease (cancer, diabetes, heart disease, etc) on a high animal protein diet? I have never heard of any. However, I have known several people personally and hundreds of others from testimonials that have healed themselves on a raw vegan diet. I'll stick with nature's healthiest foods...fruits & vegetables. Thank-you very much.
@jgfergus i have. i am a 26 yr old diabetic.. no longer take any meds..i have tried vegan vegetarian diets.. now i balance my meals with a piece of meat and vegetables and piece of fruit i eat nuts and eats healthy oils.. and moderate grains and my blood sugars are stable....sugar is your enemy not fat
Glad you're doing well. However, it is refined sugar that is the bad guy, not fruit sugar. Every cell in our body uses simple sugars as it's primary fuel. If fruit sugar was a problem, it would have shown up long ago as I'm 54 and been eating a vegetarian diet for 25 years with the last 10 being high (+75%) fruit. I would back off the grains & oils though. Humans are not grain eaters and refined oils are not a natural food. Plant foods have all the fat & protein you need. Take care!
You got parasites in Egypt, blaming the vegetarian diet? Please understand that parasites exist where there is appropriate medium for them to feed on. Internally, your body provided the necessary conditions for parasites to thrive. That would be acidic waste products. You sir, are not as healthy as you think you are. Internally you are/were filthy if parasites found your insides a suitable host.
@TheAnswerIsWithinYou I wasn't blaming vegetarianism for getting parasites, I was explaining how plant foods can carry parasites very easily. If you think it was my internal environment that allowed parasites to thrive you're delusional. Anyone that get's exposed to pathogens their body has never encountered before is at an extremely high risk of becoming sick from it. Learn a bit of basic immunology before making such arrogant statements as if you have some higher understanding of health.
@SecretsOfLongevity So, if you whip up a bunch of studies that are for, and I whip up a bunch of studies that are against, then what? We're both using science, right? Yep. We're back to the same #@&% all over again. THAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH HUMANITY.
That's why I love animals. They keep things simple, they know what to eat intuitively. We have to have youtube debates about it.
How is dead tissue... dying and dead cells, stagnant blood and complex amino acid structures healthy, anyway?
Wow I didn't want to debate I was hoping to shed some light none of your responses sounded like they came from your head or your heart-there are no excuses-its common sense-sorry I wasted my time here-youre a beast I can see that now-
I have been a 98% raw vegan for over 20 years. The first 10 years I consumed about 50% fruit. The last 10 years, over 80% fruit with leafy greens, a few nuts, & the occasional cooked vegan dish like sweet potato, steamed veggies & quinoa. I have no diabetes, no deficiencies, feel better than any of my meat & dairy eating friends and I can out cycle most of the men in my cycling group. How is this possible on a high raw fruit diet? Sounds like you get all of your "opinions" from "studies".
zac. i listened to the guy from Wisconsin and I have to say, his words sound like vegan propaganda with a lot of pathos appealing to monsieur/madame tout le monde who want simple answers to everything. malgré moi, je suis bien plus d'accord avec toi que brandon.
@ThomasDeanNordlum You're right. Let's have complicated answers to health that no one understands. Let's have disease names that people can't pronounce and base everything on controlled, miserable double blind, peer-reviewed studies. Let's listen to people who couldn't help you if you were bound to a wheelchair and immobile, instead of listening to those who could.
We fail so much in getting healthy BECAUSE we never keep things SIMPLE.
@DoubleBlindStudy I too feel the need to simply much in life. I don't really stick to one diet myself, i just only eat food, meat, dairy, that is from Québec, ate grass. Even in winter, which means less greens, but I do grow sprouts. The more I learn about health, the more I see that there is NO 'one size fits all' diet. I think zac has consistently said that he is talking about long term health with meat and that it makes sense that those on the SAD diet would get good results on raw vegan.
my 'gut' tells me to clean up with raw vegan (I was never vegetarian, btw) and then eventually transition to something more sustainable. everyone talks about how much energy they have on raw foods and how good they feel. dunno, i don't feel full nor satisfied with too much acid in my stomach. as far as brandon's family's cooking goes, (saw it in another video) i highly doubt his 'traditional hispanic' upbringing included only local, no GMO, whole foods. so of course his mom is doing better now.
The other day I did receive 15mg of zinc on moderate-low fat raw vegan when I typed in foods for that day. This is a normal occurrence for me to get well above the rda of 11 mg. I havent found anything on it lowering zinc levels though so I'll give you that I even found a study to support the opposite but can't find it.
We will see how bloodtests come out. I have not seen evidence to support this claim that I need extremely more only if I am old age. Especially when avoiding things that decrerase aposorption and getting the things that increase it. I will be the first to change if I am suffereing severe consquenses.
Here is a study stating more attention needs to be focused on high protein diets because long term effects cannot be ruled out at this time. It did change certain markers of kidney function. ajcn . org / content/90/6/1509.full.pdf
Yea animal fat, protein, and carbs is very correlated to pancreatic cancer. According to one of the largest studies ever done. pubmed/19561318 pubmed/19850469 pubmed/19277880 Go figure I can play this game too.
@RawTris fruit sugars do,, why do you think dates are 103 on the glycemic index, higher than a crispy cream donut.........because they have tonnes of simple sugar that causes blood sugar levels to rise, thus the body has to produce insulin to deal with the spike in blood sugar levels. Fruits are great, high sugar fruits like dates arent a great source of calories, eat a coconut or some soaked nuts and seeds if you need the calories. High sugar fruits do spike insulin levels drastically.
@redmeatheart ..only if you have sugar metabolism problems due to weak adrenal glands due to meats. Fructose is the only sugar that requires no hormone to take it directly to a cell. This is unlike vegetable and refined sugars. to enlighten you further:
you want high sugar levels anyway. Your bodies cells need energy to function and fruit sugar has the most energy.
Besides, I'm pretty sure all those meat eaters who are cooking their meats are having to sleep all the time and not do their homework, cause they don't have enough energy to stay awake :)
@42lucifersam the first study was relevant so i'll address that. Fasting glucose levels are basically blood sugar levels, but your blood sugar is always kept constant by the production of insulin in a healthy body. The study talked about the blood sugar levels staying the same, but a healthy person would create insulin to keep the blood sugar levels from fluctuating high or low.
@42lucifersam it would of been more interesting if they tested how much insulin was produced after eating the dates, which would of shown how much insulin the body would have to create to keep blood sugar levels steady.
Hey Zak, I have to say that I admire you for keeping to your research and staying true to your beliefs and what works for you. I've been vegan for two months now and feel fantastic. All I can say is that it works for me. I don't know if YOU know this but Mr. Brandon Cintron has now changed his tune - he now does eat meat and dairy. Thought you would find that interesting. Keep up the good work.

Sorry Zak, I know I didn't provide any studies or evidence of any kind. As it says in my opening, this is my opinion, and yes, it works for me, but not necessarily others. I was very surprised that you threatened to block me for sharing my opinion. Please don't do that. I will comply to your format & try to keep things scientifically based & supported. Unfortunately, there is not much in the way of studies yet as raw foodism is still a relatively new or at least revised cultural paradigm.

It is my opinion/hypothesis that, although there will likely be a temporary benefit from eating animal foods and that it can have a therapeutic value for some, that in the long term this practice will weaken the constitution as it will hinder our ability to transform precurser nutrients found in plant foods into useable nutrients comparable to those found in animal foods. They were able to produce these nutrients and so can many humans. Also, it is simply bad karma to be killing animals.

@justsitthere100 It's actually the oposite, most people are unable to convert enough of these precursors to the complete forms as is indicated in the studies I linked to in the drop down menu.

@SecretsOfLongevity Maybe you're right about most people not converting enough precursers, but I haven't had a problem as a vegetarian for the last 34 years. I explicitly ask for detailed blood tests, and so far, things keep coming up within optimal ranges. Oh, it's not a belief in karma so much as an understanding. Every healthy sentient being wants to live. Besides, I've found no reason to eat my friends. It will only provide inferior nutrition. The Hippocrates diet is best, don't you think?

@justsitthere100 That's great if it works for you but you are ONE person, you can't expound what works for just you as being optimal for everyone. That is correlation and not causation. Scientific studies (are supposed to) deal with causation.

@redmeatheart, Fruits contain glucose aswell, but more fructose. To get most of your calories from nuts and seeds is not natural or healthy, and if you are lucky will get no more than 200 calories from green leafs. So where would we get the rest of our calories from? Exactly, fruit. You guys are WAY off base. 80-10-10 is right on, maybe you can go 15% on the fat. I had weak adrenals in the past and high fruit low fat worked the best for no, no blood sugar problems as weak adrenals would cause.

rui27marne 3 months ago
@redmeatheart, you are working your body harder by eating high greens and high fats because greens contain mostly glucose and you need more insulin and cortisol to metabolize them. Fats will be converted into glucose aswell at the expense of more energy and ketosis, which creates acidosis. In the topics we would get most calories from fruit. Protein spikes the blood sugar and insulin, not fruit sugar, unless you have other undigested junk in your body then add fruit on top of it.
DoubleRawStar 3 months ago
@redmeatheart, sorry but your wrong. When the fat intake is low insulin does not spike high from fruit and maybe not even with high fat intake. Fructose from fruits doesnt need insulin to carry it into the cells. Type 1 diabetics have got off insulin on fruit. Please contact Dr.Morse because he gets people better on high fruit with herbs. I am thankful for him because all the other guru's I followed were not at his level and my personal results aswell confirm this. Lou has nothing on Dr.Morse.

@redmeatheart Your statistics of longevity refer to modern observations. These people live in harsh environments & have been subject to the domesticated values of commerce for hundreds of years now.

I have seen healthier people who were/are raw vegan, and people improving their health dropping the animal foods to nothing or no more than 5-10% of the diet. Hopefully you stay in good health bud!

And I'm sure eating salmon once in a great while is enough to receive the health benefits from it right? Just like drinking a fresh green juice once in a great while, or taking a vitamin D supplement once in a great while is enough to receive the health benefits from it right? LOL. Just like eating ice cream once in a great while, or eating Mcdonalds once in a great while, isnt enough to cause a problem either, unless you are really sick. Consistant habits build or reduce your health. Nice try!

Peter has been raw vegan for what, around 30-40 years? So what if he just recently decided to play around with some animal foods, do you not think that his good health was attributed to the 30-40 years he was vegan, or is it attributed to the recent 2 years you claim he started playing with animal foods? Sound ridiculous to you? Really stupid is how that sounds. Steroids can give you 10 pounds of muscle to, doesnt mean they are good for you. Too bad peter decided to clog his lymphatic system up!

@SecretsOfLongevity, can you send me the link that stated he drinks raw goats milk, colostrum, and eggs? Because there is a recent 2011 youtube interview where he states he's vegan and eats no animal foods. And I hope its not coming from Brent Myers mouth. Sure you can put on muscle with animal foods if you eat enough calories, just like you can put on muscle on a vegan diet with enough calories. Doing anything once in a while wont kill you, doesnt make it healthy or the best choice.

How the body looks physically is in BIG part to how well your glands are working to produce hormones. I can shoot you up with even a low end dose of Testosterone, HRT doses, and you can lift weights and eat just bananas if you get enough calories, and build muscle. When I think back even at 18 I was naturally big and jacked and never at more than 60 grams of protein from animals. I ate 3 meals per day, one of those meals was vegan, the other tuna, and some chicken fingers which were mostly fat.

Fruit sugar is not your enemy with type 2 diabetes. Use herbs for your adrenals and pancreas, and keep the fat low. You may glucose load initially but you will balance out. Keep even the greens low if your adrenals and pancreas are that weak. A lot of people can fix their diabetes type 2 eating a more balanced diet of even some animal foods and exercise, the best way is mostly fruits with herbs, then can add in more fats, veg, nuts,ect, as your glands get stronger. Fruit being bad is ridiculous!

@vad7771, we have been eating fruits and vegetables/plant foods for a lot longer than meat eating and in much larger quantites , these was the first foods for man. If you study biochemistry our bodies were designed to thrive off of plant foods, mostly fruits.

@vad7771
Humans have not been eating meat for 2 million years. It is generally accepted that cooking only began about 250k years ago. Humans were never eaters of raw meat unless starving. The human species originated in the tropics, eating fruits, nuts, seeds, flowers, etc. Examining human physiology it is clear that our body is not designed as a carnivore or even an omnivore. Meat is only appetizing covered in sauces & spices, certainly not in it's natural state.
jgfergus 3 months ago
@jgfergus Our bodies are omnivorous. We have canine teeth for tearing meat; they'd do us no good if we were purely vegetarians. You'll notice that true vegetarians, like horses and cows, don't have canines.
vegetarian animals have very long digestive tracts, and carnivores have short ones. Ours are right between the two.
its realyhard to say how mutch meat was consumed, but we arenot supposed to be vegans, not anymore not ever maybe. But i dont think we were made to only eat meat,

@vad7771 I guess you forgot that we're not vegetarians (herbivores) either. We're frugivores. Where is our larger liver and shorter colon, like omnivores, to handle meat better before it putrefies? How much do we have in common with omnivores if you compare how we look?
We look most like frugivores. Primates.

I once thought the same. Once I really examined the human physiology it was obvious that humans are frugivores by design. We do not have long canine teeth. Nor do we have teeth like the herbivores (horses, cows, etc). We are most like primates (apes) who eat mainly fruits, nuts, seeds, veggies & herbs. We do not resemble omnivores like birds, pigs, dogs & bears. Fruit is the only food we savor in it's natural state. All other foods must be processed/cooked before they are palatable.

@jgfergus Dear jgfergus. Primates still swing from limbs. Humans bypassed the need for arduous and time-consuming morphology associated with development of claws and fangs. Why? Because we have finely-tuned appendages which can grasp objects and coalesce tools. We have copious grey matter (although it has diminished immensely in the past millennium) for procuring the most cholesterol-rich foodstuffs. You have your entire genetic ancestral lineage to thank for their intake of animal foods.

@InnateReality "You have your entire genetic ancestral lineage to thank for their intake of animal foods."
Nope....our consumption of animal foods represents only a short moment in our overall history on this planet. We only started consuming animal foods once we migrated out of the tropics and learned how to use fire about 200k years ago. Then as now, not many humans would choose raw meat over a juicy piece of fruit. Meat is only palatable cooked with copious amounts of flavorings.

To the poster of the red meat having carnosine. It is just as natural to take a vegan live raw sourse of carnosine supplement, as it is to make a weapon in the wild, use it to kill an animal, then start a fire to process and cook that dead animal. Even if you eat that animal raw using your bare hands and "canine" teeth tear into the flesh. But I'm sure you just buy "packaged" meat at the supermarket and cook it, which isnt natural.

I would back off the grains & oils though. Humans are not grain eaters and refined oils are not a natural food. Plant foods have all the fat & protein you need. Take care!

I think zac has consistently said that he is talking about long term health with meat and that it makes sense that those on the SAD diet would get good results on raw vegan.

my 'gut' tells me to clean up with raw vegan (I was never vegetarian, btw) and then eventually transition to something more sustainable. everyone talks about how much energy they have on raw foods and how good they feel. dunno, i don't feel full nor satisfied with too much acid in my stomach. as far as brandon's family's cooking goes, (saw it in another video) i highly doubt his 'traditional hispanic' upbringing included only local, no GMO, whole foods. so of course his mom is doing better now.

The other day I did receive 15mg of zinc on moderate-low fat raw vegan when I typed in foods for that day. This is a normal occurrence for me to get well above the rda of 11 mg. I havent found anything on it lowering zinc levels though so I'll give you that I even found a study to support the opposite but can't find it.

@42lucifersam 50mg is a better amount per day. A single ejaculate can contain up to 15mg of zinc.

We will see how bloodtests come out. I have not seen evidence to support this claim that I need extremely more only if I am old age. Especially when avoiding things that decrerase aposorption and getting the things that increase it. I will be the first to change if I am suffereing severe consquenses.

Here is a study stating more attention needs to be focused on high protein diets because long term effects cannot be ruled out at this time. It did change certain markers of kidney function. ajcn . org / content/90/6/1509.full.pdf

Yea animal fat, protein, and carbs is very correlated to pancreatic cancer. According to one of the largest studies ever done. pubmed/19561318 pubmed/19850469 pubmed/19277880 Go figure I can play this game too.

Fruit sugars don't spike insulin.
RawTris 3 months ago
@RawTris fruit sugars do,, why do you think dates are 103 on the glycemic index, higher than a crispy cream donut.........because they have tonnes of simple sugar that causes blood sugar levels to rise, thus the body has to produce insulin to deal with the spike in blood sugar levels. Fruits are great, high sugar fruits like dates arent a great source of calories, eat a coconut or some soaked nuts and seeds if you need the calories. High sugar fruits do spike insulin levels drastically.

@redmeatheart ..only if you have sugar metabolism problems due to weak adrenal glands due to meats. Fructose is the only sugar that requires no hormone to take it directly to a cell. This is unlike vegetable and refined sugars. to enlighten you further:

@redmeatheart
you want high sugar levels anyway. Your bodies cells need energy to function and fruit sugar has the most energy.
Besides, I'm pretty sure all those meat eaters who are cooking their meats are having to sleep all the time and not do their homework, cause they don't have enough energy to stay awake :)

@42lucifersam the first study was relevant so i'll address that. Fasting glucose levels are basically blood sugar levels, but your blood sugar is always kept constant by the production of insulin in a healthy body. The study talked about the blood sugar levels staying the same, but a healthy person would create insulin to keep the blood sugar levels from fluctuating high or low.

@42lucifersam it would of been more interesting if they tested how much insulin was produced after eating the dates, which would of shown how much insulin the body would have to create to keep blood sugar levels steady.
