If you've ever been told your condition is “incurable” or that your disease will only move in one direction, this episode will help you understand what research actually shows about how the body responds to illness, and why outcomes may be less fixed than they seem.In this episode of Renegade Remission, you'll hear two powerful examples: Dr. Dean Ornish's clinical research demonstrating measurable regression of heart disease under specific lifestyle conditions, and the story of Ann Fonfa, who lived decades beyond an advanced cancer prognosis while pursuing an integrative approach to her health. From there, we zoom out to look at the broader data, including thousands of documented cases of unexpected recovery, and what they reveal about the range of possible outcomes.In this episode, you'll understand: • What “reversal,” “remission,” and “stabilization” actually mean in medical terms • Why disease progression is not always linear or predictable • How inflammation, immune function, and metabolism influence disease behavior • The role of gene expression and environment in shaping outcomes • How to think about your own healing in a way that is both grounded and openListen now to understand what the data really says about healing—and how to approach your own path with clarity, realism, and possibility.DISCLAIMERThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.

If you've been doing everything you can to support your body but aren't seeing or feeling much change yet, this episode will help you understand what's actually happening beneath the surface, and why healing often takes longer to show up than we expect.In this episode of Renegade Remission, we walk through the biological sequence of healing and why it rarely begins at the level of symptoms. You'll hear the story behind Dr. Dean Ornish's research, where measurable changes in gene expression and disease-related pathways began within weeks—long before patients felt significantly different. From there, we break down what's happening inside your body during the early stages of healing, including shifts in gene expression, immune regulation, nervous system balance, and cellular energy production.In this episode, you'll understand: • Why healing often begins long before you feel better • The order your body follows as it starts to repair and regulate • Why symptoms can stay the same or fluctuate even when progress is happening • How immune, nervous system, and energy changes unfold over time • What early signs of progress to look for beyond obvious symptom reliefListen now to understand what your body is actually doing in the early stages of healing, and why staying consistent, even when progress feels invisible, can make all the difference.DISCLAIMERThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.

Dr Sam Moxon, narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher. In this blog, Sam reflects on emerging research suggesting that diet and lifestyle interventions may influence the progression of Alzheimer's disease. Inspired by work from Dean Ornish and discussions on the Dementia Researcher Food for Thought podcast, the article explores how a whole food plant based diet combined with exercise, meditation, and support groups produced measurable improvements in cognition and function among patients with mild cognitive impairment and early Alzheimer's. The results raise important questions about how lifestyle choices shape brain health and whether simple changes in how we live could slow disease progression.

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD): How Early Diagnosis & Walking Saves Legs & Heart

Kym McNicholas On Innovation

In this episode of The Heart of Innovation, cohosts Kym McNicholas and Dr. John Phillips feature multiple patients courageously sharing their lived experiences with Peripheral Artery Disease, including rare and often misunderstood cases that challenge what patients are told is "possible." Pamela's story highlights a critical gap in PAD care. After being told by a large hospital system that amputation was inevitable, she reached out to the Global PAD Association's Leg Saver Hotline. Through patient advocacy and care coordination, the underlying contributors to her disease were identified, including the role climate played in worsening her symptoms. Her decision to relocate to a warmer environment helped stabilize her condition and avoid limb loss, proving that earlier intervention and individualized care matter. Francine's journey offers another rare perspective. Diagnosed at just 48 despite being a runner, personal trainer, and fitness instructor, she was found to have a full occlusion in her left leg and intermittent blockages in her right. After undergoing a femoral-popliteal bypass, multiple stents, and angioplasty procedures, Francine transformed her lifestyle through the Dean Ornish program and a low-fat vegan diet. She has since completed four half marathons and continues teaching group fitness, yoga, and Reiki. Theresa's story exposes how often PAD is dismissed, even when the warning signs are clear. With a family history of PAD, Theresa recognized the symptoms early. At 46, she sought help after developing walking pain, only to be told repeatedly that it was a back problem and that she was "too young" to have PAD. A Doppler study was performed but interpreted as normal. For five years, as her symptoms worsened and her walking distance shrank to less than ten metres, she continued to advocate for herself before finally insisting on a vascular referral. Within minutes of meeting a vascular consultant, Theresa was diagnosed with severe PAD. Imaging revealed a 100 percent blockage in her right leg and 80 percent in her left. Angioplasty provided temporary relief, but restenosis occurred quickly. A second procedure resulted in arterial injury, requiring placement of a 30-centimetre stent in her right thigh. Despite ongoing pain, Theresa developed remarkable collateral circulation, so robust that it complicated intervention attempts. Today, she remains closely monitored by a responsive vascular specialist and manages her condition with vigilance, pacing, and rest. She also notes a meaningful improvement in walking pain after starting Wegovy, an observation she continues to discuss with her care team. Equally important, Theresa speaks candidly about the emotional toll of PAD. A special education teacher who loves to travel, she feared the disease would take away the life she loved, as it had for her father. After a period of isolation, she made a conscious decision that PAD would be part of her story, but not the author of it. She now works full time, travels when she can, adapts when needed, and lives by a powerful truth: she controls PAD, not the other way around. Together, these stories reinforce a message too many patients never hear in time: Leg pain, cramping, and difficulty walking are not normal aging. They are warnings.

Fierce First Step & Physical Vitality Blueprint

Bone-Brain Superhighway PodcastFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of the PODCAST* Vitality Powers Performance—and Awareness Is the Starting PointThe central theme for 2026 is that vitality directly fuels performance. Drawing on Dr. Dean Ornish's insight that “awareness is the first step in healing,” the podcast emphasizes awareness—physical, mental, social, and spiritual—as the foundation for meaningful change and long-term vitality.* Take a Fierce First Step by Betting on YourselfThe opening call to action is to take a “fierce first step” into the new year, framed as an obligation to one's future self rather than a casual resolution. Vital people confront fear with faith, view obstacles as opportunities, and choose meaningful action despite uncertainty.* Vital Sprints: A 60-Day Focused Framework for ChangeA new initiative called Vital Sprints is introduced—short, time-bound periods of focused effort. The first 60-day sprint centers on cultivating awareness across physical, mental, social, and spiritual domains, offering structure and momentum for sustainable habit change.* Exercise Is a Magic Longevity Elixir (with Massive ROI)The podcast reviews compelling scientific evidence that even 15–20 minutes of daily exercise significantly reduces all-cause mortality, improves longevity, lowers inflammation, enhances brain health, supports the microbiome, and slows biological aging. Exercise is framed as a “modifiable behavioral factor” and a daily deposit into one's Health IRA.* Physical Awareness Is the Overlooked Sixth SenseBeyond strength, endurance, and flexibility, the podcast highlights physical awareness—the body's ability to sense, adapt, and stabilize in real time—as a critical and trainable vitality asset. Simple daily practices like deep breathing, balance (stork stands), proprioception, and “channeling your inner matador” can preserve independence, reduce injury risk, and enhance confidence and performance over time.Copyright, VyVerse LLC, All Rights Reserved.

Be Kind & Grateful to Be Great PodcastFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of the PODCASTHuman Connection Matters More Than DataDr. Mishra opens with Dean Ornish's idea that connection and community are as essential as food, water, and air. He argues we are drowning in data but starving for direction, and asks listeners to stop tracking themselves for a week and intentionally engage with real humans.Biomarkers Alone Cannot Measure VitalityDespite years of research—including PRP innovation and extensive self-testing—Dr. Mishra emphasizes that no single biomarker or panel can accurately quantify vitality. He critiques the booming longevity-tech market for offering more marketing than science.The Hottest Longevity Tests Have Limited EvidenceHe reviews four major categories:* Blood-based biomarker panels: Huge market but very little peer-reviewed evidence supporting meaningful insights.* Microbiome testing: Promising but still early; diverse gut bacteria correlate with healthier aging.* Biologic clocks (epigenetic, facial, retinal): Interesting but inconsistent, easily cherry-picked, and not yet clinically integrated.* Liquid biopsies & whole-body MRI: Useful mainly for high-risk populations; false positives can cause harm.Overall: science lags far behind the hype.The Best Ways to Slow Biological Aging Are Proven and SimpleBased on published data, the most reliable methods to slow biological aging remain:* Consistent physical activity* High-quality sleep* Calorie restriction* Plant-forward diet* Optimal vitamin D* Higher income* Higher educationA Hybrid Future: Start With Human Vitality, Then Add TechDr. Mishra recommends:* Prioritizing human actions AI cannot do—forgiveness, fun, imagination, courage, resilience, service, connection.* Considering comprehensive testing at two strategic “warranty expiration” stages: early 40s and late 50s.* Building a future where human vitality comes first, and elite technology augments—not replaces—our humanity.Copyright, VyVerse, LLC.

Hello. I am Larry Zydek, and I recently celebrated my 70th birthday.  For most of those 70 years, I have had a weight problem.  When I was a child, I was overweight (fat) to the point that on special occasions, my mother had to have suits custom-made.  What an embarrassment.  Husky was the word for fat clothes, as most people know.  When I turned 11, a doctor prescribed what I think was an amphetamine.  I, too, for a short period, along with some diet modification, lost weight and kept it off reasonably well until my mid-twenties.  Then, marriage, children, and work, without vigilance over food and drink, resulted in weight gain.  Each time I peaked I tried to lose the weight.  I tried Weight Watchers, Atkins, low-fat, low-carb, and low-calorie diets, as well as those by Dean Ornish and Michael Thurmond, among others.  Each of them worked and then did not work.  I supplemented my exercise routine with activities such as aerobics, weightlifting, stair climbing, walking, and biking.  Exercise, while beneficial for your health, does not significantly contribute to weight loss or weight control.  In my mid-forties, I developed a thyroid condition called Hashimoto's disease.   It is an autoimmune disease that, if uncontrolled, can kill you, and I was close to that at the time.  It is easily controlled via hormone replacement, but I blamed it for my inability to lose weight year after year.  My lifelong struggle to lose and maintain weight and to be healthier was finally resolved through fasting.  I always tried to be health-conscious as I read about diets, food preparation, and practised healthful routines, but I had bad eating and drinking habits I developed through life.  While I tried fasting in the past, it was not the CleanFast, and it was not a daily routine.  I can say that now I practice a daily 22-hour fast with a 2-hour eating window, which I modify as necessary on special days or occasions.  I still have the thyroid issue, but have currently lost 70 pounds on IF since October 1, 2024.  It is a testament to the process, regardless of the particular disease.  My blood work results are all excellent, and my physical endurance has shown significant improvement.  I am not sure if my story will help anyone, but I feel that sharing it may encourage someone on the fence or feeling apprehensive about fasting, or give some encouragement to someone having a difficult time.  To join the Patreon Community.

In this episode, we dive into two fascinating and controversial stories challenging the norms of modern health and wellness. Part 1: The MIT Neurosurgeon Who Quit First, we react to the viral story of a highly successful, MIT-educated neurosurgeon who walked away from a prestigious 20-year career. We explore his disillusionment with a medical system focused on surgeries over root causes, and his profound discovery about the power of lifestyle factors – like diet, sleep, stress reduction, and community – in true healing. We connect his insights to the Blue Zones, the work of Dr. Dean Ornish, and the pervasive issue of burnout. Part 2: Cole Robinson's "Sugar Diet" Then, we tackle the provocative claims of Cole Robinson (aka the 'Snake Diet' guy) and his argument that a high-sugar, low-fat diet is the key to getting ripped and achieving boundless energy – directly challenging keto and low-carb dogma. We analyze his confrontational style, break down the science behind energy metabolism and insulin sensitivity, and discuss whether there's method to his madness or just controversial hype. Join us as we unpack these unconventional perspectives, question the status quo in both medicine and diet culture, and explore different paths people take in search of better health, energy, and authenticity. What are your thoughts on these radical health shifts? Let us know your opinions on the medical system, lifestyle medicine, or the keto vs. high-carb debate!

Nita Gage, Hoffman teacher and Director of Faculty, worked closely with Dr. Lipsenthal, M.D., for several years before his death. He was an internationally recognized leader, teacher, and author in integrative medicine and physician wellness. And he loved the Hoffman Process. The vision, care, and understanding that Dr. Lipsenthal brought to the world of medicine and medical doctors has changed how doctors care for themselves. Through his own time in the medical profession, Dr. Lipsenthal observed that the health, morale, and work satisfaction of many physicians were often worse than that of their patients. He found a way to support physicians in improving these areas of their lives. Like both Dr. Lipsenthal and Nita, many physicians they worked with eventually came to do the Hoffman Process, which gave them additional tools to change their lives for the better. Listen in as Nita shares her experience of working with Lee, the physician, and Lee the man. We hope you enjoy this conversation with Nita and Drew.

Through his years in the medical profession, Dr. Lipsenthal observed that the health, morale, and work satisfaction of many physicians were often worse than that of their patients. Inspired by his personal and professional experience, he developed the "Finding Balance in a Medical Life" program, which has been adapted by major medical groups and is being delivered at medical schools and residency programs nationwide. Lee was a 2006 graduate of the Hoffman Process. He died in September 2011. His wife, Kathy, also a physician, and his two children live in California.

Learn the foods that can help prevent prostate cancer and boost your digestive health.   Dr. Neal Barnard joins Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Live to discuss the dietary factors that may influence your cancer risk.   In this interview:   Dairy Consumption: Studies from Harvard indicate that men who consume milk have a higher risk of developing prostate cancer, regardless of whether it's low-fat or whole milk. The insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) in milk is a potential contributor to this increased risk.   Meat Consumption: A diet high in red meat, such as hamburgers and fries, is also linked to a higher risk of prostate cancer.   Protective Foods: Foods rich in lycopene, particularly tomato products, and soy products are associated with a lower risk of prostate cancer. Soy does not cause breast cancer in men and may actually reduce the risk of prostate cancer.   Impact of Lifestyle Changes: Making dietary changes after a prostate cancer diagnosis can be beneficial in preventing recurrence. Dr. Barnard references Dean Ornish's studies that suggest dietary modifications can positively impact men with prostate cancer.   Green Tea: Dr. Barnard notes that while green tea may have some protective effects, it is not a substitute for other dietary changes.   Sugar: Sugar, particularly from dairy products, is discussed as a potential risk factor for prostate cancer.   Overall Health: Dr. Barnard emphasizes that many men with prostate cancer do not die from it but rather from other health issues, such as heart disease, often linked to poor dietary choices.   This episode is sponsored by The Gregory J. Reiter Memorial Fund, which supports organizations like the Physicians Committee that carry on Greg's passion and love for animals through rescue efforts, veganism, and wildlife conservation. — — SHOW LINKS — — Prostate Cancer Resources https://www.pcrm.org/health-topics/prostate-cancer — — — AHA Heart Disease Report https://doi.org/10.1161/CIR.0000000000001303 — — — Gregory J.

In June 2024, Dr. Dean Ornish and his team at the Preventive Medicine Research Institute revealed for the first time that an intensive lifestyle intervention—including a whole-food, plant-based diet—can significantly improve cognition and even halt the progression of Alzheimer's disease! Dr. Dean Ornish shares details of his compelling protocol and insights into his randomized controlled clinical trial study that demonstrated the effectiveness of dietary and lifestyle changes in reversing early stages of dementia. With nearly 7 million Americans currently living with Alzheimer's, the potential to shift this alarming trajectory offers a sense of hope. Dr. Ornish's study highlights not only the importance of nutrition but also the critical role of exercise, stress management, and social connections in promoting brain health. It's an inspiring conversation that underscores the power of simple, yet transformative lifestyle choices in combating one of the most feared diseases of our time.Takeaways: Nearly 7 million Americans are currently living with Alzheimer's, with projections rising dramatically by 2050. Dr. Dean Ornish's lifestyle intervention significantly improves cognition and function in Alzheimer's patients. A whole food plant-based diet is central to reversing the progression of Alzheimer's disease. The study found that 71% of participants in the intervention group showed cognitive improvement. Lifestyle changes can effectively reduce Alzheimer's symptoms, contrasting with traditional drug treatments that only slow decline. A supportive community and love are crucial components in managing Alzheimer's and improving quality of life.

According to the CDC,  about 659,000 people in the United States die from heart disease each year. That's 1 in every 4 deaths. A staggering 100 BILLION dollars were spent several years ago on stents and bypasses. But how effective are those dangerous, invasive, and costly procedures in improving the patient's quality of life? Is there an alternative?   Today's guest is Dr. Dean Ornish, the founder and president of the nonprofit Preventive Medicine Research Institute. He is a clinical professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, and the author of seven books, all national bestsellers. Dr. Dean Ornish has directed revolutionary research proving that lifestyle changes can often reverse or undo the progression of many of the most common and costly chronic diseases and even begin reversing aging at a cellular level. He documented his findings in his landmark book UnDo It!   Dr. Dean Ornish studied medicine under Dr. Michael DeBakey, an American vascular surgeon and cardiac surgeon, scientist, and medical educator known for his trailblazing efforts in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.    Today, Dr. Dean Ornish is helping people regain their health with his program, The Only Program Scientifically Proven to Reverse Heart Disease, which is reimbursed by Medicare from anywhere in the U.S. 'Nuff said! Let's dive into this eye-opening episode and UnDo It!   “When I was in medical school, we were taught that the only way to change your genes is to change your parents, meaning you can't do anything about it. But we did a study with Craig Venter, who was the first to decode the human genome, and we found that over 500 genes were changed in just three months. Same lifestyle changes turning on the good genes, turning off the bad genes in simple terms. And there are mechanisms. There is something called methylation, which is a molecule that's like a switch that can turn on or turn off a gene. Technically, the genes are the same, but the expression of the genes—if you can turn off a gene that causes cancer, then it's as though you're changing your genes. Or different proteins, histone, and non-histone proteins, they act as switches, and sirtuins and others that turn on and turn off the genes. And we found that over 500 genes were changed in just three months.” - Dr. Dean Ornish   What we discuss in this episode: - Dr. Dean Ornish walks us through that pivotal moment when he met Woodstock Guru Sri Swami Satchidananda and how that encounter changed the direction of his life  - How stress increases our predisposition to cardiovascular diseases and the worst thing about being depressed - Is there something wrong with traditional medicine?  - Dr. Dean Ornish talks about the joy that his work brings, enabling people to have options vs. undergoing costly medical procedures - How to UnDo It!

Affectionately known as "Dr. Kale" by her patients, she shares her remarkable journey from a traditional family physician to embracing a plant-based lifestyle after navigating her own health challenges and witnessing the impact of nutrition on diseases.In 2011, Dr. Kim Scheuer was a burned out family physician caught in the same grind of many physicians – long hours, diminishing patient care, and running on the hamster wheel of the “healthcare” system. It was also around this time that Kim realized she was just one-year shy of the age her mother was when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Determined not to walk this path, she started doing her research and what she found both astonished and angered her. Of course, she found The China Study, Forks over Knives, and other resources, but how had she not learned any of this information in medical school??! How was she not familiar with the work of Dr. Dean Ornish, Dr. Fuhrman, Dr. McDougall, or Dr. Esselstyn?It didn't take long for this self-proclaimed “Milky Way vegetarian” and food addict to radically overhaul her own lifestyle and, ultimately, her medical practice. Today, she's a plant-based telehealth physician with Love.Life Telehealth and she's also board certified in Lifestyle Medicine. She works with patients in 25 states with general health and wellness, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, blood pressure, cholesterol control, cancer prevention and food addiction.

Fat in milk does not count. That's great news for dairy lovers!   Unfortunately, it's simply not true and the science just doesn't add up. Yet, that is the premise of new legislation that would return whole-fat milk with 5 grams of saturated fat per serving, representing a quarter of an entire day's limit, to school lunches across the United States.   While the fat from the pizza, hamburgers, french fries, and other food on cafeteria trays is totaled up, the largest source of saturated fat is being totally disregarded. Why is that?   Double-board-certified pediatrician Dr. Yami and Andrew Binovi, director of government affairs for the Physicians Committee, join “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll to discuss the bill and why fat in milk is being ignored.    The nutrition numbers don't add up, but the rates of childhood diseases are mounting. — — SHOW LINKS — — Take Action https://www.pcrm.org/HealthyStudents — — — Dr. Yami Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedoctoryami Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedoctoryami Website: https://www.doctoryami.com/ — — EVENTS — — International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine Where: Washington, DC — Grand Hyatt Date: August 15-17 Who: Drs.
