 Guys, this is textbook, textbook vegan nonsense. I've related kidney stones to a vegan diet many times in the past because of oxalates, as well as a lack of vitamins needed to metabolize calcium which binds to oxalates. Not only did Liam get a kidney stone, his overall experience on the vegan diet is also indicative of why it is not for humans. The 30 year old actor developed a kidney stone last year. Liam Hemsworth switched to plant-based eating in 2015 and since then advocated veganism up until now. In this month's issue of men's health, the Aussie actor revealed he had ditched eating only plant-based foods after he developed a kidney stone. For the first two years I felt great, he told the magazine. I felt my energy was high, I felt like my body was strong, cardio was high, everything felt really good. February last year I was feeling really low and lethargic and I wasn't feeling good generally, he added, and then I got a kidney stone. I mean, should we even believe what any celebrity says at this point when all their goal is is to guide the sheeple and make money? Let's take what he says at face value for our sanity even though he may never have been vegan in the first place and I'd certainly bet it wasn't for two years. Some of you might remember a video titled The Vegan Honeymoon I made a few months ago where I explained this period of time where you feel great initially following a vegan diet. That period of time, in this case Liam claiming two years, where he felt great is because of the removal of inflammatory foods that plague our modern diets. Factory-farmed animal products, feedlot me, conventional eggs, farmed fish, pasteurized milk, combined with pesticide-laden grains, vegetable seed oils, it's no wonder people feel better when they go vegan, but for how long? The initial deficiencies of B vitamins and iron set in fairly quickly, but people are used to being deficient in other vitamins in general. Just like the stands in American diet, a vegan diet is lacking nutrients, particularly B vitamins, vitamin K2, D3, cholesterol, and minerals in highly bioavailable forms. According to the Aussie actor at the time of getting hospitalized, his morning smoothie contained nearly five handfuls of spinach, almond milk, almond butter, and vegan protein. That's what I consider super healthy in doing the rot-filling, he added. I had to completely rethink what I was putting in my body. However, science says that calcium oxalate stones are formed by eating high amounts of oxalate-rich foods and not necessarily vegan food. Although Hemsworth felt that veganism didn't work for him, he quickly added that everyone is different and others could be positively influenced. If something works for a period of time, go ahead, keep doing it, he clarified. This is wacko-dacko stuff. No wonder he got a kidney stone consuming spinach, almonds, and vegan protein every morning. The amount of oxates, phytates, anti-nutrients, lack of bioavailable minerals is exactly what you need for a kidney stone. And people think these shakes are healthy, but at best, they're a source of energy. Macronutrient energy, particularly carbohydrates, because they lack key nutrients for our bodies that we need to build, replenish, have healthy cells and tissue. They mention that calcium oxalate stones are formed by eating oxalate-rich foods and not necessarily vegan foods. And for those of you that don't know, the storage form of calcium in most plant foods is calcium oxalate. And the only foods that contain high amounts of oxalates are vegan. Is this a joke? Only vegan plant foods contain high oxalates. I think they meant to say that not all vegan diets are high in oxalates, but either way, pick your poison, buddy. There's a laundry list of health problems associated with a vegan diet. That's why almost half of the content of my YouTube channel is based around the downsides of veganism. You have the extreme end of harming children and the other end of sounding like a fairy boy. Oh, what do you know? The ghoul himself, Dr. Greger, has something to say. Concerning what Hemsworth experienced, Dr. Michael Greger states that studies show that excessive animal protein in the body is likely to cause kidney stones due to an increase in the acid load contributed by the high content of sulfur containing amino acids in animal protein. Buddy, they're called calcium oxalate stones. Literally called oxalate stones. You can't get them unless you consume oxalates. There's plenty of studies discussing oxalates and kidney stones. Let's just take a quick look. Dietary oxalate and kidney stone formation. To limit calcium oxalate stone growth, we advocate that patients maintain appropriate hydration, avoid oxalate-rich foods, and consume an adequate amount of calcium. The impact of dietary oxalate on kidney stone formation. Due to the risk for stone disease that is associated with a low calcium intake, dietary oxalate is believed to be an important contributing factor. Effective dietary oxalate and calcium on urinary oxalate and risk of formation of calcium oxalate kidney stones. This review of the literature indicates that initial dietary therapy for stone forming individuals can be limited to the restriction of foods definitely shown to increase urinary oxalate. Dr. Greger's nonsense study doesn't matter. Liam Hemsworth got kidney stones from a vegan diet. Whether or not meat consumption can be related to kidney stones does not matter if the oxalates are what's causing the issue. It's not like we don't know what the stones are made of. Now, you would think that kidney stones are partially hydration related, but these vegans are sucking down a gallon of green slop per day so they get plenty of hydration. The problem seems to be the sheer amount of oxalates and a lot of calcium bound to those oxalates. We know vitamin D3 and K2 play huge roles in calcium metabolism, so I would speculate that the proper transport and store of calcium enacted by these vitamins would prevent kidney stones. Other studies you guys can read, and I'm sure I've summarized this more in depth in the past, but I don't really want to go too far into this as vitamin D3 and vitamin K2 are so essential to many functions that reducing kidney stone risk is just a bonus. You can check out these two studies, vitamin D, hypercalciuria and kidney stones, and kidney stone risk related to low vitamin K2 levels. As with many problems in our modern lifestyle, there's multiple factors playing into this. A person following a balanced omnivorous diet of high quality animal and plant foods, even if they are consuming some high oxalate foods, is never going to get kidney stones, but if you start doing unrealistic things like juicing two pounds of spinach in the morning, consuming ridiculous amounts of incredibly high oxalate foods, and you remove bioavailable minerals, a.k.a. you go vegan and reduce animal foods, you will see issues like this, issues that pretty much make it so you can't even follow the diet anymore. At face value, this is certainly one of the lesser evils that can happen to someone, but the worst part about all of this is this clown has probably influenced hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people, to go vegan and harm their lifestyle, and it's like, how can you do that? It's like, oh wait, this guy convinced me to go vegan, the game changes documentary, but wait, wait, now you're telling me you don't feel good, but I should still stay vegan if I feel good? It's completely ridiculous. The agenda is so blatantly obvious, just like the agenda for the corn of war is to stuff grain fed meat down people's throat is painfully obvious.
