Listeners of Plant Based Eating for Health that love the show mention:In a world filled with various dietary choices, the decision to embrace a vegan lifestyle is often more than just a change in what's on your plate; it's a profound transformation that touches every aspect of your life. For Camilla Clare Brinkworth, this transformation has been nothing short of extraordinary. Camilla's journey to veganism began with a deep sense of compassion for animals and a growing awareness of the environmental impact of our dietary choices. She realized that choosing to be vegan was not just about what she was eating; it was about adopting a holistic philosophy that aligned with her values of kindness, sustainability, and overall well-being. Chronic pain was a constant companion in Camilla's life until she decided to make the switch to a whole food plant-based diet. Within weeks of going vegan, she experienced a remarkable reduction in her pain levels, particularly in her neck, where she had been suffering from arthritis. The pain that had once been a daily burden gradually disappeared, leaving her with a newfound sense of freedom and vitality. But the benefits of veganism didn't stop there. Camilla's mood improved significantly as she continued to incorporate more plant-based foods into her diet. She transitioned from being an unhappy individual to waking up every day with gratitude and joy. Her baseline became one of positivity, and she couldn't be happier with the transformation. Today, Camilla Brinkworth is not only an advocate for veganism but also a living testament to its transformative power. She embraces a lifestyle that prioritizes non-cruelty to animals, environmental sustainability, and individual health. Her journey showcases the incredible potential for change that lies within each of us. Camilla is also passionate about raising awareness of sustainable alternatives to traditional dietary choices, such as aji flower oil, which she believes can revolutionize the way we approach health and nutrition.

Wanda's Transformative Journey Wanda shared how her journey began over three decades ago when she met her husband, who was already involved with the NHA.

In this episode of the Plant Based Eating for Health show, I have the distinct honor of talking with Dr. Eduardo Corassa, a dedicated health advocate and passionate proponent of veganism, raw foods, and holistic health. His personal journey, filled with transformation and growth, is a testament to the profound impact of dietary and lifestyle choices on overall wellbeing. Dr. Corassa's story begins during his teenage years. As a globally renowned Counterstrike player, his jet-setting lifestyle and unhealthy habits led to a significant decline in his health. Unimpressed by the conventional medical solutions offered, he sought alternatives, eventually discovering the transformative potential of veganism and raw food diets. Initially skeptical, Dr. Corassa found the switch to a raw food diet positively impacted his health almost instantly. He shares his experience with a medically supervised 24-day water fast, a pivotal moment that solidified his commitment to promoting the benefits of his newfound lifestyle. Over the past 16.5 years, Dr. Corassa has dedicated himself to a diet primarily composed of fruits and vegetables. http://www.VeganVisibility.com/120-eduardo-corassa #VeganLifestyle, #PlantBasedDiet, #HealthTransformation, #SustainableLiving, #HolisticHealth, #RawFoodDiet, #EnvironmentalSustainability, #VeganVisibility, #EduardoCorassa, #HealthyLivingTips
In this episode of the Plant-Based Eating for Health podcast, I have the distinct pleasure of talking with Jason Demchok, a chef and lifestyle medicine enthusiast who shares his personal journey towards a whole food plant-based diet. Jason shared how meeting with Dr. Lou, an MD with expertise in environmental toxins and hormones, changed his life by recommending a plant-based diet. This conversation highlights the power of lifestyle medicine and the importance of making conscious food choices for our health. In particular, the episode focuses on the benefits of fermenting vegetables for improved gut health and overall well-being. Fermentation is an age-old process that has been used for over 8,000 years to preserve vegetables by selectively breeding probiotics that protect food from bad bacteria. Jason explains that fermenting creates a whole ecosystem of bacteria inside the food, which can lead to improved gut health, digestion, and nutrient absorption. Fermenting is also an easy and fun process to learn, and Jason encourages listeners to try fermenting at home. He even offers a free lesson to anyone who contacts him after listening to the podcast. Jason and I discuss the harmful effects of consuming animal products and processed foods, and the importance of incorporating a variety of colorful vegetables in one's diet. We touch on the addictive nature of cheese, the harm caused by dairy farming, and the role of food manufacturers in creating products that are designed to be addictive. The conversation emphasizes the importance of the microbiome and how plant-based diets can heal the gut. To start a basic plant-based diet, Jason recommends beginning with greens, organic beans, apples, and cucumbers. He also recommends using whole food dressings such as tahini and balsamic vinegar. If you're interested in trying your hand at fermenting vegetables, Jason recommends using mason jars with fermentation tops, which are available on Amazon. He emphasizes the importance of cleanliness when fermenting and recommends using organic vegetables for the best results. This episode of the Plant-Based Eating for Health podcast highlights the power of fermenting vegetables for improved gut health and overall well-being. By adopting a whole food plant-based diet and incorporating fermented vegetables into your meals, you can take control of your health and enjoy the benefits of a healthier gut. So why not give it a try? https://veganvisibility.com/119-jason-demchok/

What started as a simple tweet, turned into an episode on the Plant Based Eating for Health Show with Dr. Matthew Nagra. The response to the tweet was incredible, and obviously hit a nerve with thousands of men and women around the globe. “Why is it that no one seems to bat an eye when a parent feed their kids unhealthy, garbage fast food, but the minute they say, "I'm raising my children on a healthy, whole food, plant-based diet" people scream child abuse? Really?? Have u checked stats on disease & obesity 4 kids?” Based on the responses the tweet received, I put out a request to my Twitter followers for a medical professional who advocates for children eating a healthy, plant-based diet. Within minutes I received a message from Dr. Nagra, who had been referred to me from my friend and colleague, Sandra Nomoto. Sandra is the author of the newly released book, Vegan Marketing Success Stories. Connections Matter One thing about the vegan community is people know people.

It wasn't until taking control of his own health and transitioning to a plant-based diet that Dr. Nagra noticed significant improvements, which were ultimately the catalyst for the career he chose. His mission is to help others do the same.

Join me as I pull back the curtain on my progression from a plant-based eater, who vowed to never identify as a vegan, to now hosting two shows; this one, and Vegan Visibility Podcast show. Going further into the plant-based lifestyle, I'm finding it to be one of the most spectacular experiences of my life. What started as an experiment for my health, turned into becoming a voice for the voiceless, a concerned citizen for the Climate Crisis and a woman in her late sixties more committed to health than ever before.

Over the past decade, there has been a marked decline in the health of our children as well as an increase in obesity. According to the CDC, in 2018, the prevalence of obesity was 19.3% (14.4 million) children and adolescents. As well, obesity percentages increase with age and race. It's well documented that obesity puts anyone at a much higher risk for highly preventable diseases. Children are innocent victims with the prevalence of profits over people initiatives by the food industry. With food manufacturers continuing to produce unhealthy choices for consumers, this has had a major trickle-down impact on the overall school lunch programs throughout the United States. While many parents are not even aware of how unhealthy the school food programs actually are, one woman who is on a mission to change the way children are fed in schools is Maria Solanki. Trying a number of ways to have an impact, including completing a 500-page charter school application that took years to completed due to the complexity of the research involved, Maria turned the denial of the application as fuel for her life's work; improve the food selections within the school system in her area. From a concerned mother to a political candidate, Maria is merely scratching the surface of the changes she plans to be a part of through her political platform. http://www.mariaforstudents.com
Disrupting the food industry, one nugget at a time, Nowadays is re-defining what cravings for junk foods are all about. Fried junk foods are often thought of as guilty pleasures, but healthier options don't usually quite scratch that itch to indulge. At Nowadays, co-founder and CEO, Max Elder, doesn't think cravings should come with a side of guilt. Nor should food damage your body or the planet to be delicious. Nowadays, a venture-backed food tech startup making Plant-Based meats, with only a few simple ingredients and an unparalleled nutritional profile, is fast becoming a favorite of those who want a healthier option to current food choices. Nuggets Lead the Way Nowadays' flagship product, tasty Plant-Based nuggets, made with a handful of simple ingredients, is overwhelmingly approved by the harshest food critics, children. Nuggets are the perfect category for Nowadays. According to Elder, nuggets is about an $8 billion category in the United States. With health in mind, the Nowadays nuggets have seven simple ingredients. Hands down, it has the cleanest ingredient list and the best nutritional profile of any nugget on the market; Plant-Based or animal-based. Unlike many Plant-Based foods, the ingredients the Nowadays nuggets are easy to recognize and pronounce; organic, non-GMO yellow peas grown by US farmers; yeast and mushroom extracts for a distinct meaty flavor; whole wheat for a wholesome and crunchy breading; maple fiber to replace eggs; and a bit of sunflower oil for both golden color and fried crunchiness.

If you are not one who frequents TikTok, this post may not make sense. However, if you've been on TikTok for any length of time, you know it can be like going into the Twilight Zone. It was actually during a recent visit to TikTok that I was compelled to write this post and release the most current episode on the Plant Based Eating for Health podcast show. Let me preface by saying that TikTok is a great way to unwind at the end of the day and watch funny animal videos, heartwarming rescue videos, vegan recipe videos, and success journeys of people turning their lives around. It's a harmless way, so I thought, to enjoy the perspective of men and women around the globe. Yet, every so often, a video pops up that you have to wonder, “What is the person thinking?” Granted, the question, in and of itself is judgmental, but as humans, we do tend to judge. Not many people escape the clutches of judgement. Some more than others. On this particular occasion, a video came in my thread of a woman who was morbidly, morbidly obese, sitting in front of dozens of cheeseburgers, tacos, fries, cupcakes, and several large plastic cups of soda. Now please know, this is not at all about fat shaming… at all. However, it is about questioning why someone would find it necessary to prop themselves up in front of the camera to literally stuff their face with untold amounts of unhealthy food. You can well imagine the comments people left about her gluttonous ways, to which her canned response was, “I feel great, and I am healthy.” Likely neither are true, but she stands by her statement. Sadly, young people are being influenced by these types of videos. Currently, there is a major health crisis going on. One that began long before the pandemic and shutdowns. There has been an increase in virtually every type of disease, obesity is an epidemic unto itself, contributing to many preventable diseases. Check out the full episode for more insights.

Long before people knew how to pronounce the word vegan, Paul Shapiro was inspired to not consume animal or dairy. His decision was based on being compassionate to animals. Although Paul didn't have anywhere near the knowledge he has today, he knew the animals were not being treated well. This was when the seeds of activism were planted. Paul's activism began by writing letters to animal welfare organizations. This was back in the day that there was no email, Internet, or social media. Yet, even though Paul was committed to learning more about being vegan, he didn't realize he could be healthy by eliminating all meat. He felt it was like holding his breath. There is only so long you can hold your breath and he felt there was only so long he could go without meat. Yet, nearly 30 years later, he has been 100% without meat and dairy and performs at an incredibly high physical and emotional level. Life as a vegan is made easier by the fact that his wife, Toni Okamoto, a highly successful social media influencer, is also vegan. The author of three very successful vegan/plant-based cookbooks, Toni is most well known for her branding and highly successful book, Plant Based on a Budget. Both Toni and Paul were vegan before meeting one another yet having this in common was a huge plus to their attraction to one another. As the author of the highly successful book, Clean Meat; How Growing Meat Without Animals Will Revolutionize Dinner and the World and founder/CEO of the Better Meat Co., Paul is quick to say he lives in his wife's shadow. www.bettermeat.co http://www.paul-shapiro.com
