RE: What Does "Healthy" Mean?

in #health7 years ago

I just watched the trailer and they left all the nonsense out of it haha, my main problems are the lack of science to back up like 85-90 percent of what they claim as well as trying to tell people veganism is the only way to be healthy which just makes people feel like its out of their reach so they dont even bother trying

Sort:  

O.K., well I'm curious, so I'll watch it at some point. If people are using diet to try to be healthy (or healthier), it all depends on what their definition of healthy is and what their goals are. If they just want to lose 10 lbs for their wedding, just about any diet will do. If they want to live as long as possible and be as disease-free as possible until the end, well then yes, the science shows plant based wins hands down. Perhaps people need motivation (e.g., onset of diabetes, cancer diagnosis, heart attack, etc.), good information, and gentle guidance, but it is totally within anyone's reach.
