Vegan Nutritionist Helps World’s Strongest Man

World's strongest man Brian Shaw recently published a full day of eating video. His diet may fuel his large frame and impressive feats of strength, but it is at total odds with what's considered healthy. In this video, I show how Brian could still be just as competitive with a veganised version of his diet, that actually has a SUPERIOR amino acid profile and would be far less likely to be the cause of his demise! Yes, folks, you CAN have it all...

I'm Paul Kerton, a former Personal Trainer and Vegan Nutritionist, I am now a full-time Social Media Influencer. Not so long ago, in a misguided attempt to try and grow muscle as quickly as possible, I ended up eating more animal products than probably anyone you've ever met. Through research, I came to learn the deleterious effects that eating even quite trivial amounts of animal products has on one's health and through personal experience, I found that far from being a hindrance to sports performance, a well-planned vegan diet is actually optimal! Then with an open heart, I looked at how we treat animals in order for them to end up on our plates and it shook me to the core. I could not believe that for so long I fell for the lies that others tell us, that we tell ourselves, in order that we perpetuate this destructive behaviour. Destructive to ourselves, the beautiful, intelligent sentient beings that are here with us and indeed our very planet. To try and put right my part in all of this I was compelled to overcome my fear of being filmed for YouTube and television, appearing on the radio and more recently public speaking. On a spiritual level, I've come to realise that my fellow man too is suffering. If I won't see harm come to a chicken I've never met then why would I be unkind to my brother man? If someone is being aggressive or unkind toward me, surely the suffering inflicted on them in the past is simply spilling over? Do I want to add to that, or can I step out of my ego long enough to forgive them and maybe break the cycle of negativity? This former, quick to anger "meat-head" bouncer has been on one transformative journey!

Atleast you showed alternative foods for him to eat rather than bashing him. You are a good man Hench. 🙂👍

[ryszardpianecki]

I would love to see Brian doing your diet and seeing how he performs and feels

[albertolarocca]

"Ah, but the one on the left has more BCA. However, the one on the left is actually from the vegan plan. I switched them around to f**k with ya."

You're absolute gold, Hench. :D

[sadiedavenport]

He seems like a sweet guy and a loving family man. I'm sure he can't be feeling good on that meal plan. I hope things work out for him.

[toninavegan]

OMFG that switcheroo at the end (the protein bit) made me laugh so hard!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well done, Paul. What a great video. 💪💚

[joelkennedy]

Such a cool way to deal with this topic, no shouting or insults, just showing people facts

[kukusmiles]

Would love to see more of these types of videos! Especially would love to see the compared meals cooked up! Thank you Hench!

Some thoughts about this clip:

1) Brian seems to be a decent guy and a good father, but I am really worried that he won't be there when his kids are adults. His diet is absolutely horrible from a health standpoint.

2) When I was a gym bro in my early 20's, even then - as a meat eater - I cringed at the thought of having this much meat, dairy and eggs in my diet. I remember when I cooked chicken breasts in my kitchen, that I kept it to what I thought at the time was minimum for health. I didn't realize back then that a vegan diet is healthful and even better. I was so misinformed, and got most of my nutritional "knowledge" from the guy who sold me protein powder; a fat, sweaty bro with zero nutritional training.

3) The amount of animal suffering that goes into one single strongmans lifestyle when they eat like this is so freaking sad. Even though Brian seems to be a good guy, he really is ignorant to the amount of pain and suffering he inflicts on non-humans, and for this reason he acts very selfishly.

4) Paul, this is one of the best videos you have done. And I really like the way you do reaction videos: A direct approach without BS, keeping it both health focused and ethically focused, yet with respect for the person you're responding to.

Great video, really enjoyed that one and like your approach to these diet reviews.

[Sam-yrls]

11:25 is most I've laughed in a long time 🤣

Great channel looking forward to making my way through rest of your videos as and when I can!

[lukewinnicki]

Brilliant video. I’d love to see more diets from these athletes get veganized

[ShardstapoRotmg]

This is great! Such a good way to respond to videos like this, thank you!

[GekkeGeitjes]

Really cool, would have loved to see the vegan version all cooked up :P

[GandalfTheSilver]

11:34

this bamboozle at the end was golden lmfao

[Emanuelnx]

This was really great! It would do wonders if he adopted your meal plan, both for him and the animals! 👌🌿

[jorgen]

I've been watching your videos more & more lately. I fucking love you man. You're truthful, yet funny & deliver the message flawlessly. Great work Hench! Keep On Keepn' on

[HahaharryLewis]

Love how at the end you gave a vegan alternative meal plan with the same nutrition! Nice one, Hench

[GreenVegan]

Awesome video! I hope he sees it after all you did to put this together. Who knows, because of you he might be willing to try it.

[missac.]

hahahaha that last trick with BCAA was epic!! Always a pleasure watching your videos!

[cgbodytube]

I remember in the middle of a vegan conversation with my uncle in law, he said "I knew you were coming so I haven't put goose fat on the potatoes". The polite part of me said thank you, the other voice was thinking "if you weren't having a vegan round for dinner, why the f would shoving the fat from a goose in your potatoes feel like the go to thing to do". 🤦🏽
