I was hoping one of the sets of twins would be Danny Devito and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

How do you even come up with this so fast😅
😂😂😂😂😂
The youngsters won't have a clue what you're referring to haha
Obviously it isn't out yet but i hope they do this test in other countries as well. I don't think any of us are shocked to find out that American food, whether it be produce or meat, is packed full of preservatives, growth hormones, and all this other stuff that's banned in other places. i'd love to see them do this experiment in other countries where it is a lot safer to eat their produce/meat to see if it has the same effects.
As someone who has moved from USA and been living in Europe for the past 5 years, can tell you that the difference is night and day. The biggest problem with American food is the quality. Everythng is loaded with chemicals, fillers, GMO, and vegetables and meat sold in stores is all void of nutrition. Produce is sprayed with too many chemicals, soil is harvested too aggresively, and it's picked way too early to prolong shelf-life. Spend some time in Italy or Spain. Obesity is so low out here compared to America. But what is fascinating is that people eat massive amounts. Tons of pork, huge portions of pasta, meats, and breads. The difference is the quality of food. We don't have Monsanta, animals are healthy and not loaded up with hormones to fatten them up, and the produce you buy comes direct from someone's organic farm.
@Ghost-te6jk that's why I'd love to see this same experiment done in other countries. I was in South America and the difference in food was shocking. We really push for a plant based diet in the US cause our plants have less chemicals then our meat but say it's healthier. Idk if that's accurate because other countries eat meat and are healthy... if that makes sense.
@@laurenelizabeth1390 aha. Absolutely. I got what you're saying now. I agree with you 100%. I don't think there's anything wrong with having some meat in your diet. You don't need to go full plant based. I think what's more important than that is the QUALITY of food. If you've been in South America then you know the difference in eggs. Eggs in america are grey.. whereass everywhere else in the world, they are bright orange.
@jarrettstevenson7475 yes and they're not refrigerated because the chickens are vaccinated against diseases. That was a big shock. Oh and how different vegetables taste. I asked for salad dressing and they were confused. I tried my salad with just a little lemon and fully understood!!!
i'm gonna call BS on that guy that links eating meat with fires in the amazon forest. I can smell the propaganda of this netflix crap a mile away
Right message delivered in the wrong way. One thing should be clear. This is a show and not a documentary on a scientific study. The majority of the time has been spent advertising people and companies and little time dedicated to the actual food that actually can improve your diet. How to compose a nutritious dish? Which options do people have in different states? No info about it. The results? Not even presented entirely. Just a few have been chosen to be shown. Again..Netflix makes shows not science
Right message? Lol. Veganism is literal cancer
Haven't seen the series, just learned of its existence, but just watching this trailer, I think only... agenda/message/propaganda. I probably won't subscribe to watch it, though I am mildly curious to see if there is any interesting science in it.
I was done when they had those poor women watch porn. They were trying to do too much.
This show was horrible
The trailer's conclusion gives the impression that it's more about advocating a 'save the planet/vegan' agenda rather than objectively assessing which diet is more beneficial. How does saving the planet relate to determining the best diet for personal health?
It is certainly pro vegan not pro science. As soon as I see Dr Greger being treated as a science expert, my bias detector goes off.
For starters the planet doesn’t need saving second it’s just more crap from the globalists who will continue to eat meat when they’ve everyone else on a rabbit food diet.
Vegan (a balanced vegan diet) for most of the population is the way to go 5-6 days a week Science backs that up.
literal 4 IQ show of vegan masturbation
even if that were true, making plant-based choices will improve your health - particularly in America where the meat and dairy industry is harming millions of people. thats a fact no one can deny
Very clever to release it on Jan 1st when everyone would be making a new year's resolution to be healthier.
Google Veganuary!
It’s quite clear where this doc is going. I want the study without the agenda. Doesn’t seem unbiased from the get go.
I guess no matter how much people are shown the absolutely destructive effects of our diets, we refuse to accept reality and change. There is an insane amount of evidence that meat and dairy are actively killing our health and our planet, but we simply don't care. Perhaps, we do deserve all the terrible things coming our way thanks to climate change.
Absolutely.
Horrendous documentary massive agenda and bias all the way through
Why is it biased? Just because its plant based? Close-minded fool.
The best way to view it is as a persuasive essay. Just watch it if interests you and critically evaluate the information presented
I'm SO happy they talk about the deceptive nomenclature when it comes to the subject of free range. It's absolutely appalling.
why?
I’m disappointed that there’s no mention of Roundup (glyphosate) and GMO and the dangers of them, and to avoid the dangers, go organic and NON-GMO. Also, how important it is to eat organic “Pasture raised” poultry and eggs. If a plant based diet isn’t organic or non-gmo, that means it’s been sprayed with roundup and has been GMO’d, then it’s not healthy to consume.
Excellent documentary. I loved how the Chicken Farmer was so honest about the horrors of factory farming and he changed his barn to grow Mushrooms for plant food. Even the Grass fed cows Farmer said, after eating at the 5 star Vegan Michelin restaurant, he stared at his cows and thought only of asparagus. I'm already a Plant convert btw, it was interesting to see we can live up to a decade longer eating plant foods.
Would have been interesting to have the experiment with triplets for a control group
Not needed, any incremental increase in healthy eating is always better than not
We needed triplets!
indentical triplets are extremely rare
Would have to be identical, and as said above they’re extremely rare. I have triplet granddaughters. Only 2 are identical.
Somehow, if you check the actual paper, they did not address the muscle gain/loss, fat distribution or microbiome at all.
Muscle and fat distribution, rather than BMI, is so critical to look at! I would not want to be a part of this study and lose more muscle than my twin but have identical BMI. Completely different results could come out of this by just looking at BMI. Chop off a limb and the BMI goes down but that’s not smart.
It’s not comprehensive and not a long enough study.
Seems like they have the conclusion in mind before they even started
The way they gaslit the participants into thinking they lost muscle mass because they werent eating enough 😂😂😂😂
Vogt foundation.
@@jennprescott2757 I looked into Vogt, couldn't find much info on them other than they financed the netflix special
Need a documentary how some of our vegetables and fruits are grown because it’s not meat alone
I’ll definitely watch because I’m interested but I hope they devote more time to the number of additives and growth hormones put into American food. I do think that’s a contributing and often overlooked aspect of American diets. Oh and the fact we don’t all have access to the same quality of food in this country, esp in rural and urban environments.
I think the study aimed to look at a healthy omnivorous diet and a healthy plant-based diet. Not with regards to the SAD diet.
It is an absolute crime that junk processed food and drink are more available - and often cheaper - than real food in many parts of our country! And in our public schools.
Only 5% of the world lives in your country. Your corrupt food industry practices while highly relevant to you, is a separate issue, and concern plant health as well. There is a lot of unhealthy Vegan food also. But this is about meat vs plants, and hopefully relevant to more than just the 5% who live in that poor country.
It sounds like they went immediately to veganism vs. non-veganism so I wonder!
@@michelle_kahn Oh you mean meat vs plants. What a quaint idea!
A guide to fast track yourself towards nutrition deficiency
It's a "nice" documentary, but the experiment is very flawless. Where are the numbers?! I watched the whole series thinking "They will show the numbers at the end, and that will be awesome." The series finished and I'm like "where are the numbers?!" You don't present an experiment and define a conclusion without showing the numbers - the final results - no matter how boring it is, in the end, numbers always show the truth. There's good stuff, but also a lot of advertising about the vegan companies, and not showing the results just made it worse.
I think you mean flawed, not flawless. If there's advertising for vegan companies, that tells you all you need to know!
The numbers are in the published paper called "Cardiometabolic Effects of Omnivorous vs Vegan Diets in Identical Twins"
Yes, its was marketing rolled into entertainment watch hours.
you are a legend thx@@cristianb0
They only showed the full numbers of what fit their agenda
my uncle not blood related used to work out everyday, had a clean consisted diet and never smokes or drink. he ended up having a stroke 2 times at 49 and is now mentally disabled. my blood related grandma is 98, smokes and drinks everyday, eats the greasiest food imaginable and never works out. I do believe having a clean diet and active lifestyle for the most part will let you live longer, but genetics plays a huge role with life.
Stress and lifestyle are huge
There are many factors that are little observed. Meal timing is proving to be as important as what you choose to eat. Chewing a lot is essential to really promote the absorption of nutrients and even the size of the spoon used has an influence on this. Furthermore, mentality is essential. They asked Aubrey de Grey what all centenarians had in common, he said that the only thing he always found was the fact that they dealt well with life's misfortunes.
Another thing to consider is that environmental exposure damages your dna and endocrine disruptors are everywhere. Older people were not exposed to as much of them as children as the current round of kids are being or that you were.
I also think genetics plays a role in our food preferences. From conception our lives are programmed. We make choices that alter the course, but I sometimes think that even our decisions are predetermined.
It’s all dependent on sleep and less stress.
One day people will realise you can’t trust Netflix for reliable information, especially on diet
Well there’s a million other non- Netflix documentaries with the same information. People believe what they want
this documentary is literally based on a scientific study... what else do u want lol
At the end of the day all you need is balance. Carnivore is dumb, keto is dumb, vegan is dumb. I agree that most Americans could definitely use less meat but cutting it out completely would deprive you of B12, iron (vegan iron is a meme), and Omega 3s among probably others as well. In the beginning of the doc they highlighted how people who lived in a certain region in California lived longer (presumably) because of easier access to fresh produce but failed to point out that the vast majority of them weren't actually vegan lol
@@GeneralKenobi69420Carnivore is not dumb and is what humans are meant to eat. However healthy carbs like fruit honey and raw milk can make a great addition to one’s nutrition in a world where we have it so easily available
@@drewr9580 bruh yes it is lmao. Not even talking about the health aspect, you seriously gonna eat NOTHING but meat? No french fies? No burgers? No pizza, no ice cream? Just beef liver for breakfast lunch and dinner every day? F that dude that just sounds sad af
Were these people exercising regularly before this? That would be a huge improvement for sedentary people across the board regardless if meat was involved or not
Exactly. If the experiment consists in looking at the effects of different diets, then there shouldn't be all these scenes of them working out in the gym, which obviously alters the validity of the experiment.
in the post credit scene they introduce the ultimate food that will save the planet: Kale with some bugs
been a vegan for 7 years now, never felt better!
I feel sorry for you. I’m the opposite of vegan even though I do eat vegetables and fruit and I feel better than ever super healthy. All labs are in the healthy range… This video is all propaganda for peta idiots
@@Rachmanfan4life Is animal abuse unethical?
The carnivore diet is the best. Nothing but meat, eggs and water. Perfect for body.
Also most coaches and trainers are not aware of vocal cord dysfunction. There is a plethora of outdated information relative to efficient breathing while exercising. The nasal cavity is not adequate to handle the demands of high intensity aerobic activity. ALWAYS breath through you nose and MOUTH when jogging and after jogging until your heart rate comes down. Do not force it to come down by holding your breath. The nasal cavity is smaller and therefore much less efficient for breathing during and after a high intensity workout. In addition there are other issues that may impede the flow of air including inflammation from allergies, increased mucus from an overproduction of histamines, deviated septum or polyps. Everyone is different. Using your nose and mouth will help you catch your breath.
this should be interesting. despite being identical twins, there's going to be inherited variences...so wonder how this will play out.
Pretty sure the results will be fairly standard knowledge. -Eat healthy and you'll be healthier. That'll mean a healthy balance of meat, veg, carvs, fruits etc. -Eat crap, and you'll be less healthy. That'll be pre-cooked foods, processed foods, things high in sugar and fats and lower in protein and vitamins etc.
@@user-ds8rj2vc4v the study is already published online, both groups got healthier but the vegan group got substantially healthier biomarkers, massively and quickly.
@@user-ds8rj2vc4v based on who’s in the documentary I’m guessing it’s another WFPB driven film. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that but meat, dairy and seafood will most likely not be recommended regardless of the quality.
@@Sara-pb6lj Exactly. The people who tend to live longest on this planet usually have something like a mediterannean diet. Which includes healthy meats
@@user-ds8rj2vc4vThe Blue Zones have the longest living populations & they eat little if any meat.
I suspect a little researcher bias here. 🤔
Really interesting issue and I want to watch it too.. As long as I know.. Even twin can have different result from all the things.. Really curious about this theme
When they said “every time you eat a steak, a puff of smoke goes in the Amazon” it was a bit over. They lost me!
It's really bad. I agree.
Do you realize the scale of ongoing destruction in the Amazon thanks for the global demand for meat? That was pretty accurate.
Delicious puff of smoke it is
@@huntstyleNot everyone has the ability to overcome their selfish tendencies to make positive changes that help others.
@@markanderson100 not everyone falls for obvious propaganda
Seeing Greger killed any desire to watch this. I'm 100% sure that the conclusion will be to eliminate all animal foodstuff from your diet if you want to live long. I love my eggs - whites and yolks.
I love my ground beef.
The study in it is biased too.
It'll be interesting, but also, you can bet that it was designed in some way to benefit plant-based (i eat mostly plant-based and was vegan for years) Any documentary that promotes phrases like processed meats are on the same level of plutonium needs to be taken with a lot of salt 😂
Well, except that processed meats are catagorized as class 1 carcinogens by the World Health Organization - ie lunch meat, hot dogs, bacon, etc. Yep, the same as plutonium.
Exactly. So unserious. Tey're already so biased and talking about environmental issues when that has nothing to do with the premise of the show of looking at the effects of the different diets on the twins. As someone who doesn't eat meat myself, I'm disappointed that it looks to be yet another biased push for plant-based fake meats. It would've been actually interestinf if it kept the focus on the effects that different diets have on the sets of twins.
Any comment that make strawman fallacies I can't take seriously. Saying processed meat, cigarettes and plutonium are causing cancer (which is true) is different from making them say that processed meat are on the same level as plutonium, because it implies the same level of carcinogenicity. You are changing their arguments to make it look like you make a good point, you don't, and it's deceptive to fool those that can't see past basic fallacies.
The WHO classifies processed meat (sausage, bacon) as a class 1 carcinogen. That’s the highest class. That means we know it causes cancer.
Can you feel the agenda!
yeah, health of people is their agenda, what is yours ?
@@avinashmg7545Yeah, interviewing Vegan business owners is true journalism. 🐑
if that's what you got out of the show, then there is nothing that i can say that will make any difference. live and let live with as little judgement as possible.@@avinashmg7545
@@avinashmg7545 Lmao if you really think they care about your health you are naive
@@the-real-world I look at studies, and the validity of studies, I don't care if anyone cares about me. Science works like that. Newton did not care about NASA when he discovered Laws of motion, does that mean Laws of motion was not useful for NASA? Similarly I don't care if they care about me or not.
I’m a twin and my twin sister eats meat while I’m vegetarian, for 9 years now 😂 but when I did plant based years ago, I saw a major change in my health!!!
wow that's interesting. What changes in particular?
yes you became nutrition deficient
Haha plant based is unhealthy af
why do vegans hate meat so much for no reason?
Evidence?
Would like to see if they actually feed them a healthy diet of meat and vegetables or just the average American diet. The trailer seems to be leaning towards a biased study with a very clear agenda.
usually I hate people who say "agenda" with a burning passion but you have a point in this one case. Feeding one person a beef shwarma and another a beyond meat or temph philly steak or burger will completely change the results.
See Adventist study
Curious if this is an “experiment” the way Love is Blind is an “experiment,” or if it is actually scientifically rigorous.
I was thinking the exact same thing lol. The word “experiment” is being thrown around loosely nowadays
Take a minute and google, and you'll find that this is an actual study.
@@leapintothewild_original Okay, I googled. 22 sets of twins? That’s not nearly a big enough sample size to represent a population the size of every human being on Earth, and they only tested vegan diet vs. generic omnivorous diet when there are at least a dozen other possible choices. Still not significant.
Ultimately it was financed by the Vogt Foundation - an environmental preservation group. If you really want to know what diet is heathiest for you - get your own blood work done and compare.
I wouldn't call any 8 week study on human health scientifically rigorous - all you can look at is some changes in blood markers and try to speculate on what those might mean in the long term.
As with many things, the truth is in the opposite from what is being told. So turn it back again to know: Eat what you are.
Best comment yet.
Eye opening! Thank you for this
Not a fan. They failed to tell you that many plants are also unhealthy and contain plant defense systems like harmful oxalates and lectins. Plants don't want to get eaten either.
It’s a vegan propaganda again
Luckily if you cook your food (most people don't eat dry beans), you don't have to worry about those things. :)
Stop watching when the guy said, “every time you eat a steak a puff of smoke goes up in the Amazon.” Please
Yeah and in "what the health" they said eating an egg is like smoking 5 cigarettes 😂😂😂😂
@@tauraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa no they didn’t?!! Seriously?
Yes!!! This was either created by the plant-based companies or it is propaganda from Agenda 2030.
8 weeks is not long enough for the deficiencies of a plant based diet to set in.
Lmao this again. People are so uneducated about this topic and it’s so tiresome. I’m 8 years “plant based” no supplements. Just nutritional yeast in my recipes b12. Btw the dead animals people pay to be mutilated and slaughtered are supplemented with b12 in their feed.
Id love to see the same experiment implemented in analyzing the long term effects of beauty and grooming products. Whats the tradeoff?
Lol greger looks like the pinnacle of health.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
33yrs old and I'm pre-diabetic. Definitely interested to see this.
Try keto!
@@FreeAgent99 Keto works but unfortunately it gave me the keto rash. Helped me lose 10-20kg tho before I stopped to recover from rash
You should definitely try animal based keto then, minimally processed whole foods. And eventually, depending on your physical activity, even ween carbs back in.
@@xxslysinxxketo rash? That’s a first I’ve heard. What was your diet like?
@@garouthetiktokinfluencerhu9731 I was eating all steamed foods, Tofu, eggs, green vegetables, carrots, salmon, chicken every single day with minimal brown rice/potatoes. Additionally 2 hiit sessions per day. 1.5-2.5 kg weight loss per week I got the non-itchy keto rash on my upper arms and I had to increase my carb intake. 2-3 months later and the rash vanished.
I can already tell just from watching this trailer that it's pushing vegetarianism, so I know the results of the diets we'll be skewed toward that. That's not helpful. I want true, unbiased information; regardless of which way that data goes.
You will own nothing and be happy.
Carnivore/keto versus plant based would be interesting to watch. SAD versus plant based is just propaganda.
Brother did you just say a plant based diet is propaganda,,,, lord touch his brain
Food is "the" most important part of our whole life. Majority of us just doesn't care.
I will be exclusively eating grass fed beef....🐂🥩
I’d like to know how their consumption of sugar changed. Do the same experiment controlling for sugar.
Can’t wait for this!
For me as an omnivore I found episodes 2,3 and 4 very interesting. The experiment itself was secondary to the very well presented facts on farming. So many people, myself included, having watched this are reconsidering diets. Whether it's totally vegan or cutting down on meat, beef or fish, I'm really interested in trying new things out
This was nothing but a whole ad for vegan diet "Best lies are the one told with a smidgen of truth in there" Anything American pharma advertises has proven to be historically incorrect These said cigs were good Truth was exposed eventually They ran ads for sugary cereals Truth got exposed They said processed food was fine Truth was exposed eventually Which brings us to this whole documentary about shilling vegan diet Do yourself a favor and read ingredients on these MeaT liKe vEgaN food( coz they know human body naturally craves for meat) when u go to grocery store There is a WHOLE PARAGRAPH of processed ingredients in there 😂
Actually the oposite. Processed vegetables are as bad as processed meat(you will hear about it in next 5-10 years... Find a good quality meat in Europe is not hard
@@gimigimi1299 source to where I can read up on that? I've just done a quick Google and the reports I'm reading (UN, Oxford university,NYtimes, The Guardian) are all saying vegetables are more than 75% less impactful to the environment than meat. I'm totally new to all this so genuinely interested if there's another side to this
@@chrisg1772 I don't think he has any sources. It is just mathmatics that plants are less impactful to the planet than meat, because to grow herbivores you need to grow plants first, so it just takes more work, land, etc. if we were farming carnivore animals instead then the footprint would be wayy higher, as we would need to farm plants to farm herbivores to farm carnivores. The lower you get your food in the food chain the more sustainable.
@@chrisg1772you are reading very biased journals. Be careful
Curious if they make any distinction between refined carbs & additives like maltodextrin in the diet instead of just meat vs plants.
I watched this and couldn't stop.. completed the series and its changed me.
Please do more research. They don't even mention what's the harmful pesticides that we are in testing with our vegetables. They also don't mention anything about harmful oils that are being put into our food or cooking with. It definitely needs more details in better studies
I am guessing they do not mention all the different creatures that are killed when farming crops. Also much of the natural nutrients in the soil are destroyed.
Dr. Anthony Chaffee.
Run, plants are coming for you with machine guns.
Can you explain the twin diet experiment study results though? because facts are facts and has to be interpreted in some way.
I'm watching this now and it is less about the supposed experiment with twins and more about how bad the non-vegan diet is, including some outright lies. I'm far from being anti-vegan but there is a better way to criticise the meat diet than telling utter lies.
they did not measure ( or show us!) blood sugar and insulin levels pre and after the study???? Is this doc a joke?
soft science @@bogdanbogdan3462
Yep exactly. I stopped watching after all the vegan propaganda in ep 2. They barely show the experiment aspect.
So happy they compared a healthy omnivorous diet with a healthy vegan one.
As a documentary about the meat industry and his problems is superb. You should change the title of this mini series
I'm watching this one and to be honest, while watching this I thought they would show which diet is beneficial or expose the two sides. Yes, animal farming is really making us sick but how about pesticides on plants? How sure are we that these plant-based foods are really healthy? How about the chemicals used to make these foods? Are we saving the earth if we eat more plant-based food or this is just another trend from the capitalists? I am not against any diet. I just have questions because nowadays, real information is scarce and difficult to find especially from paid media and social media. I hope Netflix will be more fair next time.
I wanna see these "scientists" put carnivore animals on a plant based diet. See how well that goes
They have an observational study, plant based diets were better even for carnivores. There is also another study which shows carnivorous animals generally have more cancer growth than herbivorous animals.
Why would they and who cares? Plant based diet for HUMANS is a scientific fact backed by everyone from WHO to your local dietist. Only youtube-bros and conspiracists are advocating a carnivore diet.
@@avinashmg7545better to die as a Free Man on your feet than some sniveling sheep bowing before a Globalist Agenda.
The best thing for food would be to eliminate large processing plants and keeping things smaller. This would make things more difficult but it would be worth it in the long run
My identical twin sister and I lived this in 2013-2014 when she lived in OR and me in AZ lol
I am in the best of shape as well as strong internally following the doctors that are shown in this documentary. I have seen innumerable interviews of these gentlemen that changed my perception of food and now(touchwood) at the age of 44, I am the fittest and healthiest guy of my old school batchmates as well as among my relatives.
Just wait till you hit 50 and your whole body collapses LMAO
Could you share your meal plan?
Same! My type 2 diabetes is reversing thanks to their work!
@@suisenshirasaki8298very simple. Low fat, no animal products, plant-based Whole Foods, lots of fruits and veggies. That is what these doctors teach, and it 100% works.
@@suisenshirasaki8298 yes sure. Kindly send your email or do you want me to send it on sny other social media.
They destroyed it by comparing it to plant based. How about the sad diet compared to an unprocessed food diet (no seed oils, no grains, no sugar) with meat? Or even better: a sad diet, a vegan diet, AND a meat-heavy ketogenic diet with no processed food? Of course, that would ruin their plant-based agenda.
I personally don’t think keto/carnivore is for everyone. But yes, I agree with the rest of it. Seems very vegan/plant based biased for sure. A better “documentary” would have had animal based proponents discussing as well and at the end have a reasonable debate between both sides. But NFLX would never do that 😂
Don't talk about what you don't know they don't compare standard American diet vs healthy vegan diet. They explain that within the first three minutes of the Netflix show. If you don't know, making up stuff wont make you more knowledgeable.
Yeah, but they didn't show the results at the end. They should have compiled all the information and created a 5th episode to show and talk about the results. You don't present a conclusion for a hypothesis without presenting the numbers...
Episode 1 is 10 minutes about the research, the rest introduction of the participants. Episode 2 I hoped more about the research but it became one big preach for vegan as a miracle diet (without really getting in depth about what kind of products would be beneficial etc for certain illnesses). The rest of the episode is demonizing the industrial meat industry (partly true of course) but then there's this whole segment with fear mongering and emotional attacks about climate change and the Amazone jungle. The have a vegan fitness instructor that's biased AF. And the only experts that get extensive time to preach are... Vegan. Pure propaganda.
Also wondering if they do standardized bloodtests (which show high levels of cholesterol in the results, but those aren't necessarily a bad thing if you have healthy big cells that can get rid of it quick enough -and these cells and cellsize aren't measured in a standardized bloodtest).
Unconditional condemnation has no positive effect
Hmm. Although I have watched COUNTLESS health documentaries, I will watch this one because of the study done on twins, and because it is new.
Was aware of most of it but its nice and refreshing and our health and planet is very fragile and we should take care of it .
Life is very confusing these days with the artificial food.
Brought to you by Dr Bill Gates.
Would love to watch this but will not patronize Netflix. Any other options?
i wait for the critics to evaluate this documentary. the "game changer" documentary was basically ripped to shreds for false statements, or cherry picking statements or simply not telling the hole part of the outcomes of the experiment. why? because they want to sell the message "vegan good - meat bad" same here the whole part with the conditions the animals live in, with all the deseases and antibiotics and so on... thats sadly true, undeniable. but what annoys me the most about these documentaries is that it's always a constant bashing against meat. it's the devil and what not... they don't talk a second about the vegetable farming, where ALSO chemicals and pesticides are used to get a better product, and we eat that stuff too and get sick of it. but that wouldn't look good for the "pro vegan" aspect the documentary was made for. sadly it's never a fair comparison in these documentaries
What is SAD is we already know what "outcome" will be represented at the end of this series. We already have the answer to this question, diet is the biggest determination of health (80/10/10) beyond genetics and exercise. The real question to be answered is whether or not this is just another agenda driven doc about how we are destroying the planet.....
Exactly. How can we trust them?
The mention of the impact on the animals and environemnt is clear from the trailer. I would rather it focussed on the biomechanics than the environmental side. I don't consume mammals already out of moral reasons - but that's not what the study is about. And in the future things like meat can be lab-grown, which would remove those potential environmental and ethical concerns.
@@user-ds8rj2vc4vNot exactly. Some people would think it’s unethical to eat lab grown meat because there’s a lot of irony in that lol
@@reneer9835 People get weird when science starts getting involved, claiming it's unnatural. As if the fact we're driving vehicles, wearing clothes, cooking dinner etc aren't all completely unnatural things. People are slow to change and resistant to new ideas. Like I said, I don't eat mammals. But I'd eat lab-grown meat as it isn't harming any animals and is presumably environmentally friendly.
@user-ds8rj2vc4v how could lab grown meat be good for the environment? It's estimated to cost around 5 times more than real meat to produce, once it becomes a "thing. It probably 2000 times the cost right now. So we're going to pay scientists salaries for meat, inside of high tech facilities that are air conditioned at all times. It's all a lie, they don't care one bit about the planet, they just want total control of the food supply
Should have made one be vegetarian and one do carnivore. That would have made this great
Very few go carnivore...maybe that's why
When the chicken farmer said ‘THE CHICKENS WERE ALL BRED TO SUFFER’, that really gets me 😢.
Every single contributor in this video is a vegan influencer, theres no a single omnivore/Carnivore
Already see issues with this but let’s wait and see what it’s like.
You’re right. It’s flawed
Curious to watch it. Although it seems like another plant based propaganda… Imo processed food is the problem not meat. Think globally by eating locally
Gotta be the love of the food and celebrity tonight. 😂❤
I'm looking forward to this.
I watched this last night. Very eye opening and also sickening to see how we treat the animals. I will be making a lot of changes in my diet. I'm about to be 68. Also, I have a set of identical female twins who just turned forty, so I found this very interesting. One of my twins is a vegetarian and the other eats crap. Needless to say the one who eats crap has way more health issues. I highly recommend watching this.
It just sounds like a "meat is bad" propaganda piece. The infotainment industry produces these so-called "documentaries" every few years. The reality is special interests are trying to eradicate meat and switch to fake synthetic meat, which is way more toxic than any animal product made now.
Bull crap. You were fooled. I stopped watching after 2nd episode. Its all propaganda. Also you got a bunch of fake thumbs up. You definitely have bots upvoting your comment.
@JolinHard you seem a bit butt hurt. Are you feeling fragile?
@@emulus4000 yes i am, can you help me
68 and just learned how factory farming works?
My dad smoked, drank alcohol and ate meat all of his life. Had NO health problems, took no medication. Lived to be 94 years old. Plant based eating is ridiculous.
I just saw this documentary. It was so good and informative. The only annoyance were the elder Asian twins acting like 10 year olds. That was a little hard to watch. I wish they’d put more emphasis on the male twins who were all really funny.
Nice! Have to watch this. Thanks, Netflix! 💚
Watched this today and it's interesting, worth the watch so long as you realize there are definitely some pros and cons. Right off the bat, the fact that identical twins are studied for obvious reasons but also creepy as twins are not 1/2 of a whole entity even though they are often referred to as sets - I am a twin so yes I feel I can speak to that. Bottom line? Eating more of a Mediterranean Diet is a good thing (limiting meat more than most Americans do), although this would say go full vegan I would say Med or Vegetarian/Pescatarian and sourcing clean, local foods when you can (The Blue Zone documentary or Chris Hemsworth's Limitless were better IMHO). Pros: - Well set up study and parameters, although vegetarian vs omnivore seems more equitable than strict vegan to omnivore. - BMI is said to be worthless which is true (even though docs still refer to it all the time). - Results are interesting, particularly the "biological clock" ones. Cons: - 21 sets of twins signed up with 20 completing the challenge yet we really only get to see 4 sets. - The sets of twins shown are all very close and live together or close to one another, work together, etc. It would have been nice to see at least one set that are more independent of one another included. - The study is interesting but biased. The environmental impact of producing vegan food (ie Impossible Meat, Beyond Burger, etc.) isn't mentioned at all which it should be if we are going to accurately compare it to raising animals. - There is some hyperbole by the staunch vegans on the show that is inaccurate but presented as fact. The whole save or destroy the planet (maybe look at how Highland Coos are restoring Culloden instead) is completely hyperbolic as is the dude connecting eating steak to decimating the Amazon. - The idea that dietary fat raises cholesterol has been debunked yet here we are saying that saturated fat raises blood cholesterol again. - The lab test results are very interesting but lab results are only part of a picture of health. - would have been nice to be told what the vegan trainer suggested for workouts, etc. - too much focus on bashing Agriculture and the like instead of just following the twins and the study I would have liked to see more of that (it's not the cow it's the how is a true statement yet we really don't see anything about regenerative ag or alternative methods, they don't talk about how to shop better - farmers markets, etc.)
Can't wait for this! ❤😊
Ooooh! Excited to watch this!
This will be so interesting to watch! We can't wait! 🌱
For vegans it is, for people who understand the facts, see that there are many flaws and wrong info given in the trail. The result will be very focused to get people vegan, while the data shows that the vegan loses muscles mass and lower their ldl, what is very bad. A low ldl increases risk for Heart and vascular diseases. This is something that they claim to be the opposite. They need to check them in 10 years again and look ad them and the results will shock you as they stayed vegan. 8 weeks of vegan doesn't show the negative results, it only shows that they clean all the other crap out of their body. The real health affects will come later.
Just know who funded this study and that their sales are at an all time low.😏
On the watch list! 👏
Prof. Tim Spector from London did over 20 years study and research on twins and he proved that it’s not about DNA but gut flora - microbiome that makes a difference in twins. And this suty should be much longer to really show the reality. I think….
I will definitely watch it!
Amazing, outstanding 🙏🏻💚✨🌱🌍
I honestly question how "healthy" these omnivore diets that were given are. Seeing as multiple twins had increases in harmful characteristics. It suggests to me that their omnivore diet was worse then their regular diets 🤔
It was the stress from working out too hard that increase visceral fat
Being Hispanic, Ive had a hard time with healthy eat growing up. I was hoping that one of the twins would have been Hispanic so that we could have seen the out come of what healthy eating could do for our culture as well as others. Happy New Year to everyone!!!!
It makes me sad how many people will watch this and believe every word. Carnivore all the way.
“Containing meat and dairy” How about you try a diet of ONLY meat and dairy. Then we can talk.
Don’t eat highly processed food they say… Eat a highly processed meat substitute they say… ???
👎 Watched all 4 episodes…what a waste! They wasted a perfectly good opportunity with 4 sets of twins with different sex and race, instead tried so hard to push their agenda. Cherry picked results. They should have just let the results speak for themselves, but “oh since vegan diet is not nutritionally packed and you have less energy, people blame the vegan diet…blah blah”
I Wonder if they will be pushing plant based diet at all cost. Myself I am allergic to lentils, wheat and many other veggies, so meat is my savior
I found this documentary very biased towards vegan lifestyle. It would have been better to see both sides of the coin. For instance, how vegan foods can be full of sugar, palm oil, pesticides and we should be aware of that. Also, some foods like the recommended avocados are grown using unethical practices leaving communities without water. I couldn't help but notice they delivered 1 month of individual food portions for all in plastic packaging.
The meal plans weren’t junk and they talked about this aspect to a degree.
Somebody tag Sean Baker
This was what I needed to see! I’ve been slacking with my vegan diet and started consuming dairy products again!
Can’t wait to watch this!
