If there was a clamp down on the spread of misinformation, this channel would be one of the few nutrition channels still standing. Great job.

It is funny because I have a degree in math and data analytics and you explain complicated statistics better than every professor I had.

The research didn't just use a 'vegan diet'. It used a whole foods vegan diet which utilized lots of fiber, a lack of dietary oil, a lack of refined sugar, grains, etc. I'm glad that my state of evolution permits me to eat this way and at age seventy after living whole food vegan for eleven years I'm in excellent shape, both physically and cognitively.

As an old man, the better I feel, the better my brain works. Good nutrition, social interaction, exercise and rest should help anyone's cognition scores no matter who.

Thank you So Much! - Dr Gil! My husband has YOD due to AD, and so much of the media is so terribly negative about this disease. It's seldom mentioned with out "dreaded" or "terrible" preceding it, which impacts of those people with it, affecting them emotionally and increasing feelings of hopelessness and despair which are so bad for them! - and most of the emphasis is on how to "avoid" or "prevent" it, as though once you're diagnosed you're a lost cause and of little interest and without hope. This video and your other one re. diet for Alzheimer's is encouraging. All the best to you.

Gil sets the standard in influencers interpreting this study correctly. Thank you!

Welcome back. I applauded your succinct and knowledgeable style of sharing impressive and important medical information.

Great review, thanks! The intervention prongs remind me of the Blue Zone study. I find amazing that after only 5 months some improvement is shown. Lifestyle changes are wonderful, no drugs, no side effects, yet most people agonize about leaving behind lousy habit. Never understood that.

I like how you add on-screen cues about what’s coming next. Helpful teasers.

My mother had dementia and I noticed her diet for many years. This was her basic diet: no fruits, no veggies, no salads. She ate only cooked foods, candy and donuts. She had colon cancer and years later breast cancer, but she did not die from cancer (early detection).

Probably only nutrition channel worth watching..top class.

This channel is the gold standard for information on nutrition.

I saw one participants crying while telling his story. He now can play musical instruments without confusing the notes and forgeting the next notes to play. Massive respect for researchers

[catherinekasmer]

Our minds and bodies are interconnected. Some of the people in this study got their lives back. Pretty impressive. Dr. Ornish obtained a result that no drug ever did despite all the controlled, randomized trials and billions upon billions of dollars spent. N=1 is pretty powerful if you happen to be that particular 1. Well done Dr. Ornish! Dr. Ornish should get the Nobel prize in medicine for his work.

Awesome breakdown of a phenomenal trial. Thanks always for your balanced and honest approach.

[MoeShlomo]

I would have loved to see two more groups in the study: 1) lifestyle intervention only, and 2) plant-based diet intervention only. And or course more participants to help determine statistical significance. Either way, encouraging findings.

First 🥇
PS. Best video ever !!!!
I really love how u covered all parts that affect person health.
Nowadays nutrition pretty straightforward and it is good to cover other parts as well, holistic approach where all segments are covered also it's worth mentioning individual, personalized programs and approaches not everything fits for everyone.
Keep doing such videos more often !

[rafaelgelpi]

Given our longer life expectancy and rising incidence of Alzheimer-dementia, we need the equivalent of a Framingham Study for these diseases

7:38 - I had the same qualm when I read the study. All great points.
