On this episode, I had the opportunity to talk to both Ann & Jane Esselstyn.  We explore the history of Caldwell Esselstyn's work, and how the family integrated his scientific studies into how the family ate, and what it has meant now over three generations.  Ann and Jane's new book, 'Be A Plant-Based Woman Warrior', explores how women, in particular, benefit from a plant based diet, benefiting in physical, mental, and hormonal capacities. This is one episode you don't want to miss!

Ann Crile Esselstyn has been called "the Julia Child of plant-based-cooking." She was an award-winning English teacher for twenty-seven years, all while juggling raising four children, coaching, and figuring out how to cook delicious and appealing plant-based, oil-free food (pre-internet!). Ann's singular focus is on creating recipes to prevent and reverse heart disease, and she collaborates with her husband, Dr. Caldwell B Esselstyn Jr., in counseling patients. Ann and her daughter, Jane, also feature heart-healthy recipes on their YouTube channel. Ann graduated from Smith College and received a master's in education from Wheelock College. She lives in Cleveland, Ohio, next door to Jane. Jane Esselstyn, R.N., is a fresh, charismatic voice in the plant-based movement. She brings her passion, energy, and can-do attitude to her presentations, cooking demonstrations, and cookbooks. As well as being a nurse, researcher, middle school sex ed teacher, and mother of three, Jane hosts a popular YouTube channel with her spitfire mother, Ann Crile Esselstyn. Jane created the recipes for the #1 New York Times bestseller Plant-Strong and The Engine 2 Seven-Day Rescue Diet.

It's always a party with these two and I'm fortunate to have had the opportunity to be with them in person just a few weeks ago when we were all together at the Esselstyn Family Farm. You know what that means – it can get a little nutty when the three of us are together because that Esselstyn feistiness is ALIVE and WELL! Be a Plant-Based Woman Warrior isn't your typical cookbook. Truly, it's a peek into our family history with stories, photos, quotes, and recipes from three generations of Esselstyns. Mostly, this book pays homage to the people who started it all - my parents - for forging and navigating that undiscovered path of plant-based nutrition at a time when no one understood how vital it was (including me and my siblings). Here we all are decades later and I'm so proud to sit with Jane and Ann and share some of the inspiration and recipes with you today. My Mother has been called the “Julia Child of Plant-Based cooking” and you'll see why after you dig through some of the recipes and photos in this gorgeous book. This truly is a fun and inspiring message of hope for all women to improve their own health so that they remain strong, bold, and fierce in body and mind!

In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast, we talk with Jane Esselstyn and Ann Crile Esselstyn about how to Be A Plant-Based Woman Warrior. You probably know Jane and Ann already. They are so much fun to talk to. I give them both a lot of credit. Can you imagine living next door to your mom AND being in biz with her cooking all day long? They are both amazing people, so I'm sure it's easy for them. You'll enjoy hearing them both compliment and riff on each other while they discuss the benefits of a WFPB diet and their new book about being a Plant-Based Woman Warrior.  Ann Crile Esselstyn is a relentlessly energetic and creative advocate for the plant-based, whole-food way of life. She has devoted herself to inventing recipes to prevent and reverse heart disease in support of the research of her husband, Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, Jr. Ann never stops looking for ways to bring that important agenda to delicious life, devising ever more practical and powerful ways to shop, cook, and engage even the most reluctant eaters in the plant-perfect diet. Jane Esselstyn is a fresh and charismatic voice on the plant-based, whole food diet. She brings her perspective and passion as a long-time health and sexuality educator to creating on-ramps to the plant-based way of life. Jane is an avid and inventive designer of plant-based recipes and the co-author of The Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease Cookbook with her next-door neighbour and mom, Ann. Together they have written their newest book: Be A Plant-Based Woman Warrior.  In this episode we discuss:  Family  Kids opinion of being plant-based  The little things adding up What it means to be a Plant-Based Women Warrior Plant based and body image Favourite meals Desserts

I remember when I first went vegetarian as a teenager in the 90s. There were no recipe or nutrition blogs. If I wanted information, or a sense of community, my main outlet was Vegetarian Times magazine. I poured over the pages, even buying my first ever cookbook, The Vegetarian Times cookbook, that I could not have fed myself without. So I cannot imagine what it must have been like for Ann Esselstyn when her husband, Dr Caldwell B Esselstyn Jr made the discovery that a whole food plant-based diet just might help reverse cardiovascular disease. The whole family, including their daughter Jane, went fully plant-based pretty much overnight and had to completely relearn how to cook and eat. But we're lucky they did…because the Esselstyn clan has become a huge force for positive change in so many people's lives in their enthusiastic support for a health-focused plant-based diet. And what makes it possible? The thousands of recipes that Ann, and later Jane, have developed to take the guess work out of feeding yourself plants. So I jumped at the opportunity to chat with Ann and Jane Esselstyn ahead of the release of their latest book, Be a Plant-based Woman Warrior: Live Fierce, Stay Bold, Eat Delicious. On this episode we chat about: What it was like for Ann to start learning to cook plant-based meals for her family pre-internet when no one around them was eating this way The classic meal that remains a stable in the Esselstyn household to this day and is even served at weddings! How a plant-based diet changed Jane's relationship with her body The surprising source of so many superstar recipes in their books Why their approach to using diet to reverse disease looks different than nutrition for a healthy person The plant foods Ann + Jane try to eat daily How a plant-based diet powerfully supports women Their tips for boosting flavour and satisfaction in your meals How they stay energized as they age We get schooled on the CUVA…you'll have to listen! Why soy isn't an issue for hormones…but meat and dairy may be The hilarious thing that surprises Ann about getting older (you'll die!) Support the Pod!

Jane met her husband and fellow educator, Brian Hart, while working as a field instructor for Outward Bound. They have three plant-based children. Jane graduated from the University of Michigan, where she competed nationally as a recruited swimmer and rower, and earned a B.S. in Nursing from Kent State University.Today we talk about her journey into plant based eating, her family and their involvement, we will dig into one of the studies she was part of based on childhood obesity and whole food plant based eating and the remarkable results , we talk about how to get started and simple ways to eat more plants and also a sneak peak into the new cookbook she and her mother just completed coming out in late 2021. If you think plant based eating is boring just check out her YouTube channel and that belief will go right out the window.This was a really fun conversation, Jane's energy is contagious and fueled by plants so take a listen and I will see you on the other side.Links from the episode below:Jane's website: https://janeesselstyn.com/Jane and Ann's Youtube channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkVtuE3WR0NhNnDiP5d_pAAThe Esselstyn Foundation: https://esselstynfamilyfoundation.org/Books: Plant Strong with Rip Esselstyn - https://www.amazon.com/Plant-Strong-Discover-Healthiest-Diet-Recipes/dp/1455509353/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=Plant+strong&qid=1623025112&sr=8-3Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease Cookbook: https://www.amazon.com/Prevent-Reverse-Heart-Disease-Cookbook/dp/1583335587/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2ND13R6E6Q811&dchild=1&keywords=prevent+and+reverse+heart+disease+cookbook&qid=1623025174&sprefix=Prevent+and+reverse+%2Caps%2C198&sr=8-1Engine 2 Cookbook: https://www.amazon.com/Engine-Cookbook-Lip-Smacking-Rib-Sticking-Body-Slimming/dp/1455591181/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2V02I2BJ38TVU&dchild=1&keywords=engine+2+cookbook&qid=1623025283&sprefix=Engine+2+cookbook%2Caps%2C186&sr=8-2Journal Of Pediatrics Research study: https://www.jpeds.com/article/S0022-3476(14)01227-X/pdfMovie “What The Health”. https://www.whatthehealthfilm.com/

Rip welcomes his sister, Jane Esselstyn, back to the PLANTSTRONG Podcast. Many know Jane as a charismatic and energetic voice in the whole food, plant-based space, especially alongside her mother, Ann, in their fun YouTube Cooking Channel. What you may not know is that she is also a registered nurse who uses her charisma and passion to teach Sex Education to middle schoolers! Jane is an advocate for helping both kids and adults to understand that part of being a healthy grown-up should include a healthy sex life. It can be awkward to talk about these things and that’s why Jane really shines. She uses a healthy dose of empathy, compassion, and humor to talk about these subjects that both teens and adults are often too embarrassed to talk about. Listener Note: We do use many of the clinical anatomical words because, as you’ll find out today, one of the components of a healthy sex life is communication. So, let’s start talking about it! A plantstrong life has many benefits above AND below the belt - and a strong sex life should be one of them.

In This Episode I enjoy all of my guests, these  men and women have provided me with valuable nuggets of information that have helped me personally and professionally.  But, I'll have to admit, I geeked out when I was able to book Jane Esselstyn.  With the encouragement of one of my clients I reached out and she said yes!   Why this guest?  Because she is the daughter of Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn and part of a family that I've followed for years...a family that helped me as I transitioned to a plant-based lifestyle.  Many of you may have heard of Forks Over Knives; it was the documentary that I watched 10+ years when I made the transition.  I'd recommend you check it out; and if your husband is the hold out - have him watch The Game Changers (Netflix). Learn More About Our Guest Jane Esselstyn RN is a fresh, charismatic voice who brings her perspective and passion as a nurse, researcher, mother, and teacher to the forefront of the plant-based movement.

"Being a plant-based woman warrior is answering the call of how to live with zest and spunk and vim and vigor and uncompromised health. It is not being dependent on medications or others. It is independence and power and strength and being fierce to the guidelines of eating this way, but allowing it to be a process where guidelines get wiggly now and again.” This is Jane Esselstyn - cookbook author, RN, researcher, and plant-based expert. In today's episode, we talk about CUVA, avoiding the dreaded "vegan-splaining," and how we can fuel our power as women with the whole food plant-based diet. Listen along!

Whenever we introduce this lifestyle to a new group, the most common question we get is, “What in the world are we going to eat?” The preconceived notions about how “limiting” a whole plant-based lifestyle can be are so incredibly erroneous. In this episode, you’re going to get a primer on what to eat directly from the Mother Source - Rip’s Mothersource. Who better to whip up some culinary creativity than Ann Crile Esselstyn, along with Rip’s sister, Jane Esselstyn?

Also hear how ‘plant-based diets’ are under fire from the industry that wants to bring you ‘plant-based foods’ that don’t have any measurable fiber, the indication of plant material, and why junk-food vegan diets are not the same as eating whole, unprocessed foods that get their energy closest to the sun (it’s only a few steps from sunlight to plant vs sunlight to plant to multiple degrees of further processing to a processed gluten-free muffin). “Eating plants gives everyone a chance for a healthy life.” Resources: Jane's website: https://janeesselstyn.com/ Books & Cookbooks wth her recipes: https://www.elliottbaybook.com/search/site/rip%20esselstyn Well, Now!

Long-time friends of NMA, Rip and Jane Esselstyn, know a thing or two about cooking healthy meals people actually want to eat. They've written best-selling books and designed an entire diet philosophy, the Engine 2 Diet, around the subject. So when they publish a new cookbook, The Engine 2 Cookbook, we want to hear about it. In today's episode, Matt speaks with Rip and Jane about the new book, oil-free cooking, and how to make healthy eating choices stick.

Dr. Beth Frates is a physician and Director of Wellness Programming at the Spaulding Stroke Research and Recovery Institute at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital. Dr. Frates is also a Clinical Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School. As I was listening to our conversation in post-production, Dr. Frates reminded me of past guest and plant-based rock star Jane Esselstyn with some of her language and mannerisms and inflection and occasional bursts of vocal volume and passion. Dr. Frates was influenced to practice lifestyle medicine from a very important person in her life, the person or patient she calls “Patient Zero”. This person, a major life-changing event and the effect he had on her caused a life-altering shift in her mindset, her thinking and ultimately her career path. In our conversation, we speak about Dr. Frates' interests in stress, the nervous system and its effect on heart health and vascular health. Dr. Frates has also devoted a considerable amount of time educating herself on behavior change and a “Coach Approach”. The emphasis on talking to your patients, not talking at them, being a coach instead of their finger-wagging doctor and enabling them to find the answers to their own concerns, to own their problems themselves by leading a discussion, asking questions, being a good listener and not judging. I sense that this content is very applicable to doctors and medical professionals who listen to this podcast. In other news, I have a big announcement of the completion of a project that I've been working on for many, many months. Not a book or a study, but a course, a webinar, to further your knowledge about plant-=based nutrition and the many reasons why this is the future. It is, to my knowledge, the first ever comprehensive webinar on the implementation of the plant-based diet for endurance athletes. If you're relatively new to the podcast or to me and my story, I am an endurance and competitive cyclist who just happens to have a radio style announcer voice, who just happens to have a podcast about plant-based nutrition. So, I've created this course that details from introduction to implementation, how athletes can implement a plant-based diet into their life. Why would you want to do this? Because it WILL make you a better athlete, no doubt about it. The line baloney that we've been fed that you must eat meat and dairy to be healthy humans and strong athletes is simply not true, and I have compiled the evidence and explanations to take you on a step-by-step journey to the end goal of immediately implementing this so that you can start to reap the rewards of this lifestyle for both your short-term athletic success and long-term health. This is somewhat time sensitive as I begin teaching this live and interactive webinar, on August 18, 2018. I have much more information on this course, what's included and specifics of dates and times of presentation by visiting plant-basedcyclist.com/plantbasedathletics. I'll also include several links in the show notes to make it easier. Plant-Based Nutrition for Endurance Athletes Details on the Webinar itself I hope you enjoy and learn something from this conversation, on Episode #47 with Dr. Beth Frates.

  Dr. Brooke Starkoff is a professor in the department of Kinesiology , Sports Studies and Physical Education at SUNY Brockport, in Brockport NY. Her areas of specialty include Childhood Obesity Inflammation Endothelial Function Cardiovascular function. Here's Dr. Starkoff's Collegiate Profile https://www.brockport.edu/academics/kinesiology/faculty/starkoff.html  We first talk about how we met and her connection to Jane Esselstyn. Then we get into the nitty gritty of her research on childhood obesity and how it can be applied to adults and our everyday health. She teaches a really interesting class called “Obesity in Society” that we discuss, as well as plant-based nutrition and trying to get college students on board with this message. Let's keep the intro short and sweet and get to this in-person conversation on Episode #43 with Dr. Brooke Starkoff. Thank you to Mary Jane Wheeler, the newest patron of the Podcast.

Hey everyone, I am Ian Cramer and thank you for listening to my podcast…the podcast that's dedicated to making you healthier by interviewing doctors and scholars of lifestyle medicine and plant-based nutrition. I hope that you come away from each of these episodes learning something about how diet and lifestyle can affect different areas of health. I had this conversation with Jane Esselstyn before she was about to speak to a large group of college students at SUNY Brockport, a local college here in the Rochester Area. We talk about projects she's working on, including a new YouTube channel that she's spearheading with her Mom, Ann. We also touch on her personal positions on ketogenic dieting, genetics and its role on disease as well as trends within the plant-based movement. If anyone has a sense of the ‘pulse' of the plant-based movement, it's Jane. She is part Energizer Bunny and part rockstar, her personality is infectious which makes the message she conveys that much more impactful. Jane is known for her talks on health above and below the belt, which if you knew how Jane started, isn't surprising. One of Her first gigs was teaching sex education, so it's not surprising that she melded plant-based nutrition with topics having to do with sexual health. Her talk provides an interesting angle and further reinforces the beneficial impacts of eating a whole foods plant-based diet.

In today’s episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast we talk to Brian Hart, M.Ed. About how culture influences health. Brian is a highly experienced educator with over twenty-five years in the field as a teacher, administrator, and advocate for school change in both the public and private sectors. He is currently working as an educational consultant and program designer for his own consulting company, EVOLV.ED. Specifically, Brian specializes in working with organizations to help them create immersive, hands-on, experiential programs designed to transform thinking and build problem-solving skills. As well, Brian and his wife, Jane Esselstyn RN, conduct seminars across the nation that help people “wrap their head, heart, and hands” around whole food, plant-based eating.

Brian also holds a Rouxbe Cooking School professional certification in plant-based cooking. Today we talk about how culture influences health, why we choose the foods we do and how it inevitably affects our health. It is really quite fascinating to think about why different cultures and religions eat particular foods. Leaving behind the foods you grew up on is hard. Telling your elders you choose not to take part in those traditional dishes is even harder. Today we look at the connection between food, culture and why we make the choices that we do.   In this episode we discussed: Growing up SAD The culture of sports and junk food Religion, culture & socio-economics Why is it so hard to just make good choices Making good choices Training ourselves Culture of excess Just for one day Social and emotional challenges Our genes “But my grandma…” What about the Paleo people?   Links to things we mentioned: Brian Hart: , , , Jane’s – March 11th @ The Cleveland Clinic Wellness Center – P149 – PTP123  by Rip Esselstyn  by Ann Crile Esselstyn and Jane Esselstyn by Greg Easterbrook by Richard H.

In today’s episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast we talk to Jane Esselstyn, a fresh and charismatic voice on the plant-based, whole food diet. She brings her perspective and passion as a long-time health and sexuality educator to creating on-ramps to the plant-based way of life. Jane is an avid and inventive designer of plant-based recipes and the co-author of The Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease Cookbook with her next door neighbor and mom, Ann and also helped write recipes for Rip Esselstyn’s book Plant Strong. Together with her husband and fellow educator, Brian Hart, they have three plant-based children. Jane graduated from the University of Michigan, where she competed nationally as a recruited swimmer and rower, and earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Kent State University. In this episode we talk to Jane about the role a plant based diet plays in preventing and reversing heart disease and how this can be applied to younger generations, not just adults. Unfortunately, we find children getting heavier and sicker at younger ages. We discuss the role education needs to play and the role parents need to play. We also discuss the study Jane took part in at the Cleveland Clinic researching health markers in 9-18 year olds. After the show we talked to Jane about her event, .

It was a highlight getting to speak with people (maybe even you) from all over North America and share experiences and views. If you missed this event you should book your next vacation to the Remedy Food Live Event in Atlanta this November.

Mother and daughter Ann Crile Esselstyn and Jane Esselstyn are co-authors of the brand spanking new Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease Cookbook. The recipes are inspired by two things: the nutritional profile of heart-protective foods validated by their husband and father Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, and a knack for making healthy food prep as easy and familiar as the Standard Western Diet.

Host Theresa and Michael interview Jane Esselstyn daughter of Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn and sister of Rip Esselstyn, Engine 2 Diet.  Jane talks about a Vegan Lifestlye - Vegan children and My Beef with Meat book.
