    I’m 95 years old and grew up with two adages : “You are what you eat” and “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”. I was born at the start of the Great Depression with six siblings. Our evening meal consisted of a small hamburger patty (one pound divided into 9 patties), one small boiled potato, and a salad containing lettuce, olive oil and lemon juice and a small amount of onion and two slices of Vienna loaf of bread. We had two slices of toast and a cup of coffee for breakfast except on Sundays we had one egg and a slice of bacon and toast. No desserts and no candy. A small piece of cake on our birthdays. In the summer when we were able to have a small garden, we grew potatoes, carrots, green beans, radishes and tomatoes. In the summer there was an apple tree and a cherry tree and we canned cherries and peaches and tomatoes. I credit my longevity and good health that I now enjoy to the food we ate and didn’t eat back then!

    And she still doing it , healthy lifestyle .
    I believed foods can repair/heal our body
  • @mommyevolve1378
    Doctors told me I have the c word. I rejected it mentally and emotionally immediately. I want to live a fantastic quality of life. I won't go through chemo either. I'm stepping into my highest health today and for the rest of my life. Touch and agree.

    hi I was diagnosed with last stage AML in 2015 with 6 weeks to live and sent home to die. I researched for my life. I changed my diet, lifestyle, and many more things. I am in remission for 9 years now.Cancer changed my life and I dedicated my life for research on cancer. . I love William Li's interviews. thanks for this video.
  • I was brought up on a farm, raw milk, never junk foods, mother prepared 3 meals a day from scratch, we always had large garden each year. I never had any time of vaccination as a child. Never had flu shots, all my life never took drugs. I just learned about nutrition in my 20's. I am now 80 years old with no chronic diseases. I feel great everyday. I buy the best of everything in organic foods. Never depressed either. If any things happens to me like accidents...refused pain killers. I used calcium and magnesium which are pain killers. I really wish that more people would learned about nutrition at an early age. Dr. Li, I love your video and I will buy your books to give away to friends. Blessings!

    Notes I took from this interview:

    Foods that length telomeres (reverse or slow down aging - shoelace analogy):
    1. Green Tea
    2. Coffee (lengthing)
    3. Leffy greens (polyphenols)

    Boost immune system
    1. Blueberries (boost killer sells)
    2. Brocolli sprouts (three day old - the tree tops has it but the stocks has double the amount of good).

    Foods that prevent cancer:
    1. Two apples a day lower lunf cancer and colon cancer
    2. Green tea lower colon-rectal cancer

    Reduce inflammation in the body:
    1. Cranberries
    2. Chocolates
    3. Strawbberies
    4. Red bell peppers
    5. Guava
    6. Vitamin C
    7. Generally lots of fruits and veggies

    Foods that hurt the bodies defenses/DNA/microbium and trigger inflammation:
    1. Soda (the added sugar inflames the body)
    2. Processed meats
    3. Ultra-processed foods
  • @brendatrapp607
    This is so true. Doctors never discuss nutrition. They treat symptoms but not the root causes.
  • @dianatanner6765
    I have terminal cancer I am going to change my diet and lifesyle. Bless you
  • My daughter was given a week to live back in 2010 due to sepsis from a uti.
    Also both my babies diagnosed with a mitochondrial disease in 2008. Life expectancy was 3 years. Ayden just turned 18 and sweet Faith just had her Sweet 16th this past Sept ❤️ Never give up
  • I gave Dr Li's book to my oncologist. He was opened and humble enough to say"If you took the time to purchase it for me, I'd be more than glad to read it." That's why he's my doctor...we are learning together!
  • I'm so grateful for being a City Homesteader on our 2.2 Acres! Organic everything: Apples, Grapes, Black Walnut, Hazel Nuts, Raspberry, Black and Boysenberry patch, Grapevines, our own Tea Garden! Oh how blessed we are!😊 We will be adding 4 Elderberry Bushes that are ready to put in our Homestead.
  • @67Mannheim
    Leafy greens, dark chocolate and coffee. I got at least 3 habits correct! Yey! 😊 thanks

    This interview is GOLDEN, GOLDEN, GOLDEN!! I have been diagnosed with the stage 4 colon cancer and have been doing extensive homework on healing my body naturally and when Dr. Li said broccoli sprouts and blueberries I knew this man was the truth. Another one of my faves here on YT Dr. Berg had the exact sentiments as this entire interview. I am so glad I stumbled across your video. I never heard of Dr. Li and will binging content on him. Thank you for this wonderful video! Anyone that believes in people and not pharma is okay with me! Pray for my healing!
  • Since I was 14 years old. I took charge of my health with food, massages acupuncture, supplements.
    I'm 62, have never been sick. 🙏💗
  • YES!!! ...finally! ...a traditionally trained physician who has expanded his knowledge base to include food... nutrition... what we eat as both a preventative medicine as well as a cure.❤❤❤
  • @edwintorres5798
    As a newly diagnosed cancer patient this has been an amazing educational video thank you so much!!!
  • @ms.creepylee
    This interview is fascinating. Having been through stage 4 metestatic breast cancer caused by my stress level & unhealthy eating, ive learned and embraced a healthy plant based/ vegan / meditative lifestyle and 5 years later still no cancer. Im still learning so interviews like this & books written by Dr. William Li, i will always watch & read.
  • My mom was 91 when she passed. My aunt was 93, and the other aunt was 95. So we have longevity
  • I’m a healthcare worker and when I have to add patients medication list I get blown away on the hard drugs they are on. We are living with a drugged up society unhealthy people mentally and physically 😢
