It's no secret that plant-based meats have been marketed as healthier and more environmentally friendly alternatives to real meat. However, these claims are not entirely accurate.
While plant-based meats contain some nutrients, they simply can’t compare to those found in real meat, such as protein, B vitamins, iron, selenium, and zinc. Plant-based meats may try to replicate these nutrients through added chemicals and synthetic ingredients, but they can never match the natural composition of real meat.
The production process of plant-based meats involves using chemicals and additives that may pose health risks. For example, the Impossible Burger contains yeast that creates a synthetic version of the blood protein heme from soy. This ingredient is classified as a color additive and hasn't been thoroughly tested for safety.
Regarding environmental impact, plant-based meats are often touted as a more sustainable option than real meat. However, they require a lot of resources to produce, including water and land. If we look at California almonds, they use ten times more fresh water than cattle.
On the other hand, real meat production uses resources that would otherwise be wasted. For instance, 85 percent of livestock feed comes from non-human edible materials, including corn stalks, beet pulp, and soybean plants.
Cows play a crucial role in maintaining the health of our land. They can graze on terrain unsuitable for growing crops, and their manure is a natural fertilizer for plants. Removing cows from the equation would negatively impact our food production system. One of the main arguments against real meat is the methane emissions from livestock. When looking at the big picture, these emissions are roughly 2.7 percent, which isn’t significant enough to make a real difference.
These emissions are also part of a natural cycle. Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it in the soil, which is then consumed by livestock and released as methane. This methane eventually breaks down to become carbon dioxide again, completing the cycle.

Thanks for watching! Understanding the truth about plant-based meats is crucial for making informed decisions about our health and the environment. I'll see you in the next video!
Bill endorses it? I’m out.
It’s his new shtick, since the pleasure island of his investment fund buddy was busted!
💯 out too
@@martinfiedler4317wait what’s going on . Who’s his buddy ?
That is the only reason why I would back it. Plant based never = healthy. It equalled the non- harsh treatment of animals and storage of said animals and fecal run off with mass corporate cows.

Sound counsel. *Never eat or drink any “TV brand” foods or beverages.* Skip all of that. Categorically. The road to better food habits starts with that big first step.
Not universally true. Daisy is a pretty good brand for sour cream and cottage cheese. There’s a lot of name brands that have good ingredients.
I can’t even get my coworker to stop buying margarine. Some people just cannot be helped. I feel bad for them.
You can’t fix stupid
LOL I hated margarine when it became the “in” thing when I was a kid. Never would touch that stuff. Ugh.
Margarine is one step away from being a plastic based on the chemicals used. Crazy!
I think margarine is used at the morgue.
Margarine is fake food, its like eating a wax candle
It’s all about controlling people plain and simple.
Remember the Holodomor!
Control? You mean killing people quicker? Depopulation..
And poisoning us for profit.
They aren’t doing a very good job……subterfuge is a better tact to attain control, instead of their broad-daylight hubris-fest……
It’s more than that. These people’s agenda is not so simple. You want a simple answer, ok, it’s about controlling you.
Cows keep us from having to mow the lawn all day
But they fart too much, say EU technocrats. So we should eat crickets and worms instead.
I threw an impossible burger to a wolf once, he sniffed and wouldn’t touch it! That told me everything I needed to know about that garbage.
Did you do a dance with that wolf, too?
😄😄
@@ianstuart5660😂😂😊
same thing with my cats and chickens. If they won’t eat it I won’t eat it.
Woof woof hahaha 😄😄😄
@@judyfreeman5193 chickens eat poop, will you do the same?
Their products are getting creppier while their ways to elaborate is looking so desperate nowadays 😅. Thanks for your continuous support, Dr Berg 😊❤
*Creepier
@@huwhitecavebeast1972 Aye just a typo error. Thanks for concerning though 😅👍🏻
*Crappy typo error. It’s ‘creepy’ though lol 😂
Edit: ‘Creepier’ indeed 😂😂💀
“As long as slaughterhouses exists, wars will go on…” KARMAGEDDON ! What goes around, comes around. He might be right on many topics, but on this subject he is in darkness, yet ?
@@MarieWilliams027 hi, I like you. I’m your 33rd subscriber.
I don’t know how it’s legal to call it meat when there’s no meat in it, like calling all these nut and grain waters milk. Some countries have sense and don’t allow this.
IKEA has introduced Plant-Based item and named it “Plant Balls”. It’s on their menu next to “Pork Meat Balls”
They hate real meat cause it creates real men … The elite can’t rule a world full of real men now can day?
@@user-db2ob2jc2f Ok, plant balls is at least accurate 😅
@@janedough6575 but of course….
1:46 would be interesting to see if BillyBoy hired people from the FDA to fast-track the 28-day loophole to get it approved?
Bill needs to be arrested not only for his fake and attrocious meat, but many, many other things.
You can bet he doesn’t eat it.
Friends with Epstein as well. We all know what that means
Not easy to be arrested when the police work for you.
Gill Bates does need to be arrested and imprisoned imo, but not because fake meat.
What needs to happen versus what really will happen are two vastly and disgustingly different things. He’s above it all, unfortunately.
Food prepared in kitchens vs food made in labs? No contest.
I’ve been a vegitarian for over 35 years. I have no desire to even try any of these artificial meat substitutes. My wife eats meat and I would not ever suggest she switches to processed junk food like fake meats.
Exactly. We can just eat real food. I’m not being pushed by meat industry or people with special interests for themselves, or fake meat.
Exactly… i have no desire to eat… infact i feel inspired to go vegan sometimes…
@@suchitraadhikari I eat fish, but yes. I’d be fine taking that direction. I know the foods to eat.
I’m a vegetarian too but do eat eggs 🥚
I don’t consider killing animals for human needs.
@@martin96991 I eat eggs as well. We mostly eat ones from our chickens. In my teens I became vegetarian. Over 50, now. I started eating more fish and eggs in my 20’s on up. I’ve trued beef about 4 times and it’s just weird. Same with chicken. I can’t anymore. Dairy is iffy, most of it causes me sinus issues, and bad mucus. Started about 5-6 yrs ago.
Edible now means”doesn’t kill you right away”.
Overeating and food waste are bigger concerns anyway. How about the waste connected with medically treating and caring for people who could be healthier if they didn’t eat junk food?
Probably even worse than the medical costs is the human and opportunity costs of being seriously overweight. If you can’t move right, you’re restricted with what you can do, including practical things. And if you don’t live your full life span, you deprive people who may really need to have you around. Resource and environment costs matter, but they are only part of the story.
This
This is so huge but just like other issues they wont go to a actual root of the problem.
In addition to meat, virtually the entire cow is used for other products.. example..Cow leather is still the most durable material for clothing and furniture, sporting equipment…and over the lifetime of the product, when it breaks down, it decays naturally. Unlike manmade fabrics which contribute to plastic pollution.
If I am not mistaken, they’re planning on making leather illegal… And seeing as how they intend for beef and lamb to be non-existent by 2050, it would make sense. It’s absolutely astonishing people are allowing this madness.
This is such an important point. Whereas the entire cotton/corn plant costs much more resources to process its byproducts which are then aggregated to eliminate supply traceability whatsoever, which then turns into some of the most unhealthy things for humans to directly utilize or eventually consume.
It’s astonishing how BG is profoundly “concerned and devotional in helping humanity”. Thanks for raising so much needed awareness in this world, Dr Berg 🙏🏻
“In Bill We Trust!”–to access the Gates of Heaven.
Thank you Dr. Berg for making this valid point that have protested for the last 5 years!
Some years ago I contacted Alpro complaining about the extra water needed for growing their infinite acres of Almond trees grown across California! They replied saying that only 10% of the extra water was added, needed to complete the growing process. So, no wonder California is almost permanently in drought! Hundreds of thousands of acres of California soaking up the tap water! Utterly unsustainable for a healthy planet. And a healthy body!
I think this world would benefit a lot from many small local farms with grass fed meat and organic vegetables. I received a package of the Impossible Burger from a local food bank. I did not try them though. I regularly get invited with friends to wait in line at food banks because of being low income and needing help with food, but doing low carb eating has made what I can eat out of a food bank box very limited because a lot of the food they offer is high carb with many additives.
@caryngayfield6218 You are absolutely correct. Beef raised on a totally sustainable, grass fed pasture is the way to go! Even the cows’ drinking water is collected from the rooves of the cattle sheds and via the guttering into their water troughs. Very friendly to the environment and costs virtually FA!
My mom used to eat a lot of that fake meat stuff, she was vegetarian for 20 years and was ALWAYS sick. She now eats meat and has for at least a year or 2 and almost never gets sick now. That crap is poison. I’m glad to see more videos like this coming out.
She probably wasn’t getting adequate nutrition. The majority of our population eats meat yet look how many people are obese, diabetic, etc. Should I conclude that eating meat is unhealthy? Of course not.
@@lmlm_ The vast majority of people who are obese is because they lack self-control for how much to eat and intentionally eat trash food. Ideally the FDA should be blocking the obvious foods with unhealthy ingredients, but we don’t have a wise government. What’s most shocking is how so many people keep increasing in weight yet ignore the unhealthy weight gain!! It’s the equivalent of realizing your boat is slowing flooding with sea water yet ignoring the increasing water inside the boat.
39 years as vegetarian. I eat fish now happily. Thank you for the facts. The truth is entirely appreciated. Best wishes
My cats best friend yum yum 😺👍
meat and seafood is the fastest way to deliver nutrients to your body… Dr Eric Berg even mentions this within one of his videos.
Thank you for calling a lie, a lie! So many individuals are afraid to say the word “lie”. You say it like it is! ❤
he is lying! I hope you appreciate me using the word “lie” because he is quite literally lying.
