The Nick Bare Podcast
121: Gut Health Essentials with Dr. Will Bulsiewicz

If a person achieves better health, that's where I want them to be. That's all I care about. And I'm happy if that's the case. Yeah. At what point did you go plant-based and stop eating meat? So it was a transition that took place for me. And I guess, first of all, some terminology that I think is important is like, I believe in a plant-based diet.

And to me, a plant-based diet is not necessarily the same as a vegan diet. So to me, veganism is an ethical choice. And it's the absence of animal products because of the ethical concerns that you have. And there's a couple of different versions of how that exists.

Whereas to me, plant-based is the idea and the concept of valuing plants, acknowledging the health benefits, and not necessarily saying that your diet needs to be 100% made up of plants. There are many versions of plant-based diets that are actually omnivorous diets and that I absolutely believe can provide the health benefits that people are looking for. So to me, plant-based is an umbrella term.

that would include a Mediterranean diet, that would include a flexitarian diet, that would include versions of a paleo diet or even versions of a keto diet, or would include a vegetarian diet and would include some versions of a vegan diet that we would probably call a whole food plant-based, 100% whole food plant-based. So to me, that's sort of the way of the land as I see it.

And ultimately what I'm looking for is like a guy like you, I'm looking to basically help you to understand the value that comes from eating a wider variety of different plants and making that a priority so you don't lose track of that, right?

And then whatever that makes up in terms of your diet, if you're thriving and you're feeling well and you're where you want to be from a health perspective, I've accomplished my goal. I feel really good about that. Okay, that makes sense. But you don't eat meat, correct? I don't eat meat. Right. I don't eat meat, but like, and I guess to that, let me acknowledge.

The reason that I'm absolute in not, so I don't eat any red meat. I don't eat any poultry. And the reason why I'm absolute in that regard is basically from an ethical perspective for me. Okay. Right. But again, I fully acknowledge that a flexitarian diet or a Mediterranean diet where, again, you're prioritizing plants, those are healthy diets. I have no issue there.

So from my perspective, those things, the fact that I don't eat meat is not really a part of my platform. At least I don't feel that way because I'm not telling people that you have to be completely devoid of meat in order to be healthy.
