EAT Lancet is NOT a healthier diet!

Thank you for this info. Ive been fat from preschool age and throughout my 57 years, which included 25+ years of ever increasing insulin shots (i was taking nearly 300 units per day with the two types). i have been carnivore around 20 mos and have not needed one unit for more than a year. As long as bill gates doesnt succeed in making us all go vegan i will finally live in a healthy body eating meat

Such a breath of fresh air-thanks so much Dr. Scher! A meat-based keto diet enabled me to recover from being a vegetarian for 35 years, so I really appreciate these videos, and hope that your message gets through to these people.

I’ll admit, study or not..The Eat Lancet diet looks extremely delicious. It’s close to how I’ve been eating for 35 years now. I’m a predominately plant based eater. I enjoy seafood, eggs and some dairy,( mostly goat and sheep dairy) When traveling or at home for the holidays I will have some poultry. I’ll be 60 next spring, my metabolic health is great, I lift, do yoga, jog, garden and walk my dogs. I’m 5’8” and 145 lbs. Maybe having a 18year old son, and a husband 9 years my jr, keeps me feeling youthful also. I wish I knew my diet could make me money, I would of wrote a book and had a study done first! 😂🤣 Like you said, we all have our preferences, health issues and genetic differences that allow us to thrive on NOT the same cookie cutter diet. I would lose my S… if I was told to eat high meat keto Differences make the world go round 👍

Amen! Besides starting a meditation practice, getting off psychiatric drugs, and getting back on my bicycle, the keto diet and intermittent fasting have been the best things that I've ever done for health. I'm still working on finding My Beloved Wife to launch my love therapy practice, but as long as I keep doing what I am doing, that will happen. Sleep hygiene is critical, too, I have found. Thanks for all your work, Diet Doctor!

Thank you very much for pointing out that a single diet cannot possibly work for everybody! A single diet cannot even work for a single person forever. I had become severely anemic a year ago and I had to increase my protein and iron intake like crazy. Now my iron levels fall within a normal range if I continue to eat like that it would go above normal. I personally think that's why it is better for people to eat seasonally because at some parts of the year it forces you to eat more meat and other parts of the year it forces you to eat more plants. But the thought that even that would work for every single person all the time still can't possibly be right because genetics and evolution simply do not work that way. ❤️

Hey Bret, I’m thinking you live in San Diego and might appreciate this re: climate and drought. The green v blue water needed for animals v almonds is part of whats been driving CA droughts. Get rid of the almonds and avocados, replace w ruminants and CA can sustain itself. Ive been in CA for the past 15mo waiting for eastern Europe to calm down and have found the plant diet culture here counter to all common sense and science. My local pizza place has talked about switching to nut-based ‘cheese’! Not only is that not more nutritious, it wont save the planet and opens up pandoras box of allergy and intolerance issues.

Dr. Scher is always thoughtful and balanced. No hysteria or hype.

A diet of impossible burgers, potato chips, Oreo cookies, and Coca-Cola would be plant based. But it would NOT help prevent chronic disease, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, or lessen any environmental footprint of any kind. LOL

If it harms my health, screw the planet. I'm here for a much less time than it is.

Thanks for the coverage. I pretty much dismiss any diet advice not grounded in very very distant ancestral common sense. Having a doctor take 9 minutes to go over the science, or pseudoscience is very helpful. I feel spoiled as I never get this from any of my doctors.

Wow, doctors not using science to make recommendations... how typical.

Grass fed beef heals the human body, amends the topsoil, and sequesters carbon out of the atmosphere.

Thanks for doing the critical appraisal for us Bret!! Much appreciated 🙏🏻

Accountability is very important, thank you for keeping these reports accountable for their information and recommendations. Feel the journals should have a rating system for supporting evidence, strength, and bias because most just read them, if they read them, and assume the conclusion is truth.

Plants don’t want to be eaten and have natural defense mechanisms which negatively affect many of us. I abstain from plants. Except I eat the animals that eat the plants. LOL.

My father and his four brothers worked in a fertiliser plant. They all died prematurely as the chemicals were lethal. Four died cancer one with heart probs before age 55.

Most mainstream recommendations have the purpose of creating as many chronically ill people as possible. Perhaps ignoring them is the modern days natural selection factor.

Salt???? What? Salt is awesome. Try to live without it jejeje. So much depends on age, diet, activity levels, hydration, perspiration...

Carnivore has been the only diet I could sustain for a long enough period to lose the weight and plan for continuity of improved health. 🥩🥓🍗🥚🍤🧈
