The England Visually Impaired Futsal side are in action this week at the sport's European Championships in Turkey. Hywel Davies spoke to captain John McDougall ahead of the tournament kicking off. 

Dr. Ruth Heidrich is a pioneering figure in the plant-based movement and a remarkable breast cancer survivor. In 1982, she adopted a vegan lifestyle following her diagnosis of stage four breast cancer. Her journey is one of resilience and serendipity, as she not only overcame her illness but also became a celebrated marathoner, triathlete, and IRONMAN competitor.She shares the pivotal moment when she met Dr. John McDougall, who introduced her to the principles of a low-fat, plant-based diet. This dietary shift was not just a temporary change for her; it was a lifeline that contributed significantly to her remarkable recovery and subsequent athletic achievements.Her accomplishments are astounding—She was voted Runner's World Magazine's “Runner of the Year” and is the winner of more than 900 trophies (and counting!), 8 Gold Medals in the U.S.Senior Olympics, and 67 marathons including Boston, New York, & Moscow. Dr. Heidrich attributes much of her longevity and athletic success to her commitment to a vegan lifestyle, emphasizing the importance of proper nutrition and exercise in maintaining health and vitality.Rip and Ruth also discuss her updated book, A Race for Life, which is celebrating its 24th anniversary. The revised edition includes extensive insights into the latest research and personal anecdotes that illustrate her journey, including her complicated experiences with reconstruction surgeries and implants after her cancer treatments. Dr. Heidrich exemplifies an indomitable spirit and a compelling can-do attitude, offering insights into how challenges can strengthen rather than define a person. Her philosophy, inspired by Dr. Seuss, reminds us that in the face of adversity, we have the power to choose our response—whether to let it define us, destroy us, or strengthen us.Ruth is a beacon of hope and inspiration for anyone seeking to optimize their health through a plant-based lifestyle. Her story serves as a powerful reminder of the profound impact that nutrition and a positive mindset can have on our lives.Episode WebpageWatch the Episode on YouTubeUpcoming Events:Register for Plant-Stock August 16th-18th, 2024: https://liveplantstrong.com/ Sedona Retreat - October 8th-13th, 2024 https://plantstrongfoods.com/pages/2024-sedona-retreat COMPLEMENT: Use code PLANTSTRONG for 30% off at https://lovecomplement.com/pages/plantstrong-special-offer Leave Us a Voicemail QuestionLeave us a voicemail: https://www.speakpipe.com/plantstrong Follow PLANTSTRONG and Rip Esselstynhttps://plantstrongfoods.com/ https://www.facebook.com/GoPlantstrong https://www.instagram.com/goplantstrong/https://www.instagram.com/ripesselstyn/ Let Us Help Your PLANTSTRONG JourneyUse Code: PSSUMMER20 for $20 off Annual Subscription at https://home.mealplanner.plantstrong.com/ https://myplantstrong.com/b/trailblazer Follow the PLANTSTRONG Podcast and Give the Show a...

Beth Motley, MD grew up an athlete and always had an interest in nutrition. Once she went into medical school, however, she realized that good nutrition is about way more than just athletic performance. It's about longevity, disease prevention, and disease reversal. It's about human health. This inspired her to train under the greats like Dr. John McDougall, Dr. Ron Weiss, Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn and pursue family and lifestyle medicine as a career. What a resume of training, right?Today, Dr. Motley and Rip Esselstyn dive into the importance of meeting patients where they are in their journeys and focusing on small “atomic habits” to create lasting change.

In our final episode of the "Doctors Gone Rogue" series, we're paying tribute to a true legend in the field of holistic medicine. Today, we honor the remarkable legacy of Dr. John McDougall, who passed away last month. I'm also excited to feature the incredible work of Dr. Joel Kahn, known as "America's Healthy Heart Doc." Both are plant-based doctors who believe in food as medicine. First up, let's talk about Dr. Joel Kahn. Dr. Kahn transitioned from traditional cardiology to holistic practices after experiencing the profound benefits of a plant-based vegan diet himself. Believing in the power of nutrition for heart health, he now focuses on non-traditional diagnostic tools and prevention tactics. This interview feels more like a night at the Laugh Factory than a conversation with a cardiologist! Dr. Kahn's blend of facts and humor had us in stitches as we covered topics like nutrition, longevity, sex, stress, and “how not to die!” Next, we turn our attention to the beloved Dr. John McDougall. A physician and nutrition expert, Dr. McDougall dedicated his life to teaching the power of a whole-food, starch-based diet in preventing and reversing chronic diseases. His journey began after a massive stroke at age 18, which led him to embrace holistic, plant-based nutrition as a path to true healing. Dr. McDougall's legacy is monumental. He founded the renowned McDougall Program, authored best-selling books, and passionately advocated for dietary therapy as a cornerstone of health. His impact on the medical community and the lives of countless patients is immeasurable. On June 25th, Dr. McDougall's daughter, Heather McDougall, announced his passing. Dr. McDougall leaves behind quite the legacy, and we re-play this interview to honor that legacy today. So, let's dive into this special episode, the final episode of the "Doctors Gone Rogue" series, honoring the legacies of Dr. Joel Kahn and Dr. John McDougall. These two plant-based doctors are living proof of the healing power of nutrition. They have bucked the traditional route of medicine and truly embody the notion that food heals.

This episode originally aired July 7, 2022. We reshare it today as a tribute to his work and legacy.Dr. John McDougall was drawn to medicine because of his own health “fate.” At 18, he suffered a massive stroke and was an anomaly to the doctors in Michigan who wanted to explore “why” and “how” this could happen to someone so young. This health scare inspired his own journey to become a doctor, which eventually led McDougall and his wife, Mary, to Hawaii to practice medicine on a sugar plantation in Hawaii and service over 5,000 residents. What he saw there changed the course of his medical practice forever.The healthiest people on the island, the first-generation elders who had come from China, Japan, Korea, and the Philippines, were the healthiest and most vibrant people…still active, with no medications, and still in bodies fit for movement. It was their children and grandchildren, however, those second and third generations, that were struggling. Why? They had adopted a western diet of meat, dairy, and processed foods. The secret, Dr. McDougall discovered, was STARCH. Those healthy islanders subsisted on a diet comprised mostly of rice, potatoes, vegetables, and fruits and THAT inspired the work he does today through his McDougall programs and education.Beyond diet, the McDougalls are also dedicated to informing citizens about the positive effects of dietary therapy on chronic disease and our Planet. Animal agriculture, as we're learning, is also one of the main culprits contributing to climate change and we discuss all of his “four deadly dietary deceptions” outlined at mcdougallfoundation.org.It's an inspiring conversation from one of the legends and it was an honor to sit down with Dr. John McDougall.

In the realm of health and wellness, one might not expect to find an 80-year-old dynamo passionately advocating for plant-based living and animal rights. Yet, Linda Middlesworth defies expectations with her vibrant energy and unwavering commitment to veganism. With nearly four decades of plant-based living under her belt, Linda's journey from illness to vitality is both inspiring and instructive. The Genesis of an Evolution  Linda's journey towards veganism began in the midst of personal health struggles. At 44 years old, she found herself battling cancer, heart disease, obesity, high blood pressure, and pre-diabetes. Despite leading an active lifestyle as an aerobics instructor, Linda couldn't reconcile her health issues with her seemingly healthy diet, which included animal products like eggs, chicken, fish, and dairy. A chance encounter with her neighbor led her to discover Dr. John McDougall's revolutionary approach to plant-exclusive, starch-based eating. Embracing this new dietary paradigm, Linda embarked on a journey of healing and transformation. She shed excess weight, reversed her chronic health conditions, and regained vitality—all without the need for radiation, chemotherapy, or invasive surgeries. A Shift towards Advocacy As Linda's health improved, her journey took an unexpected turn towards advocacy for animal rights. A single conversation about the plight of dairy cows ignited her passion for championing the ethical treatment of animals. Since then, she has dedicated herself to raising awareness, organizing vigils, and participating in demonstrations to shed light on the suffering endured by animals in the food industry. From Mentorship to Empowerment Driven by her own transformative experience, Linda has become an inspiration and guidance for others seeking health and wellness through plant-based living. As a certified Food for Life instructor and member of the CNS Advisory Council, she imparts her knowledge and wisdom to individuals seeking to reclaim their health. Through her coaching program, "Get Healthy Live," Linda offers both group and individual coaching sessions, providing personalized guidance and support to her clients. By fostering a sense of community and sharing evidence-based information, she empowers individuals to make informed choices and embark on their own journeys towards optimal health. https://veganvisibilityproductions.com/004-Linda-Middlesworth   

On this episode of the NHA Health Science Podcast, we are thrilled to introduce Dr. Barnett.    Dr. Barnett's journey into plant-based living was not a sudden revelation but a gradual evolution influenced by various factors resulting in becoming vegan in 1991. Growing up surrounded by nature and spending time outdoors sparked his appreciation for the environment. However, it was his wife's advocacy for vegetarianism and the environmental impacts of dietary choices that led him to explore plant-based living seriously. Dr. Barnett's upbringing laid the foundation for his interest in plant-based living, setting him on a path towards a holistic approach to health and well-being.   Professional Evolution   Transitioning from a career in radiology to lifestyle medicine, Dr. Barnett's journey reflects a fusion of traditional medical training with a holistic approach to healthcare. His expertise in interventional radiology complemented his passion for promoting plant-based nutrition and lifestyle interventions. Inspired by pioneers like Dr. Dean Ornish and Dr. John McDougall, Dr. Barnett delved into the science behind lifestyle interventions, embracing plant-based living as a cornerstone of preventive healthcare.   Founding the Rochester Lifestyle Medicine Institute Motivated by a desire to bridge the gap between conventional medicine and lifestyle interventions, Dr. Barnett co-founded the Rochester Lifestyle Medicine Institute. Through innovative programs like CHIP and the LIFT Project, the institute empowers individuals to embrace healthier lifestyles. Driven by a commitment to holistic health, Dr. Barnett's work at the institute underscores the transformative potential of lifestyle medicine in promoting well-being.

At the age of 47, our guest today, marathoner, author, and world record holder Dr. Ruth Heidrich, received the terrifying news that she had stage 4 breast cancer. After answering an ad to participate in a cancer and diet research study conducted by Dr. John McDougall, she immediately chose to adopt a whole food plant-based diet and forgo chemotherapy and radiation. Two years later, she was in remission and became the first vegan to complete the Ironman Triathlon.    Dr. Heidrich has since been named one of the ten fittest women in North America, and you might recognize her from her appearance in Forks Over Knives. So, if you want to learn what trailblazing at 88 years young looks and feels like, you definitely want to tune in to this juicy episode as we talk running, cancer, sex, aging, breasts, and, of course, food!   “He says, ‘Okay. I'm going to prove that it's diet that can either prevent cancer, prevent recurrence, or treat it if you've got it.' And so he explained all this to me, and I'm thinking, ‘Oh my gosh, you know. What am I going to do?' And I thought, ‘Well, I can always get the chemo-radiation.' He said, ‘No. No, because when it works they're going to say it was the chemo and radiation that did it. You cannot have, so you have to make a choice. No chemo. No radiation.' He pulled out a file drawer and he said, ‘You're welcome to spend as much time as you want looking at the research that I based this on.' And he spent a full two hours with me. You know, when was the doctor ever going to do that? Two hours later, I walked out of there a vegan.” - Dr. Ruth Heidrich   What we discuss in this episode: - The importance of movement.  - How Dr. Heidrich discovered she had breast cancer.  - What inspired her to start running competitively? - Why Dr. Heidrich chose a whole food plant-based diet over chemotherapy and radiation. - The immediate positive health changes she experienced when making the sudden switch to a vegan diet. - Dr. Heidrich's alarming experience with breast implants. - Diet and total sexual fitness for women and men. - Dr. Heidrich's daily diet and the importance of eating leafy greens.   Resources: - Dr. Heidrich's website: https://ruthheidrich.com/ - Her books: Ruth Heidrich: books, biography - Forks Over Knives: https://www.forksoverknives.com/contributors/ruth-heidrich/   ★☆★ Click the link below to support the ADD SOY Act! ★☆★ https://switch4good.org/add-soy-act/ ★☆★ Share the website and get your resources here ★☆★ https://kidsandmilk.org/ ★☆★ Send us a voice message and ask a question.

Dr McDougall has done a LOT of good for people. IMO though he erodes his legacy by contradicting himself and spreading fear of carbohydrates.

Renowned as a board-certified internist, bestselling author, and co-founder of the McDougall Program, Dr. John McDougall's impactful journey in plant-based nutrition unfolded in a revealing interview with NHA Health Science Podcast's Dr. Frank Sabatino.   Facing challenges at St. Helena's Hospital, Dr. McDougall navigated conflicts between profit and patient well-being, advocating for informed consent legislation.   His efforts in Hawaii and California aimed to empower patients, especially those with conditions like breast cancer and diabetes, to make informed choices, showcasing a commitment to transparency.   Discussing a one-year study on multiple sclerosis, Dr. McDougall showcased the McDougall diet's efficacy in reducing insulin levels and improving fatigue. Notably, a New Zealand study echoed these positive outcomes, affirming the power of plant-based nutrition in managing chronic conditions.   Highlighting long-term compliance, Dr. McDougall shared impressive results from Oregon Health and Science University, where 85% maintained program adherence for a year. The key, he explained, lies in participants' overall health improvements, fostering strong motivation.   Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. McDougall's commitment to health extended to telemedicine. Despite the closure of his clinic, virtual platforms ensured continued patient care, emphasizing accessibility.   Emphasizing his food philosophy, Dr. McDougall centered on starches like potatoes, rice, and beans, underlining the transformative potential of a plant-based lifestyle. His decades-long dedication inspires a paradigm shift in nutrition and wellness, reflecting in innovative programs and unwavering empowerment.

"Aviation fuel because it is a big amount of emissions, roughly 2% in actual measurement, but about three and a half percent in terms of impact. It's not likely to change because you need high density fuels, so batteries aren't going to work for long haul flights. And 90% of aviation is long haul flights." In this episode, I'm in conversation with John McDougall, who is the CEO and founder of SynBioBlox Innovations, a company seeking to solve the global emissions problem by applying synthetic biology to the creation of sustainable aviation fuel. Imagine the ability to design, test, and then build, at scale, a biological microorganism that ingests a given feedstock and produces, at scale, a valuable compound. That's the promise of SynBioBlox.    "The GHG that's being emitted and being thrown away essentially, is the opportunity to create value by turning it into products." John McDougall is the founder and CEO of SynBioBlox Innovations Ltd.  A fourth generation Albertan, he spent two decades as President of the Alberta and National Research Councils following leadership positions in real estate, engineering consulting, manufacturing, oil and gas and technology businesses.  He is a former Chair of APEGA and Engineers Canada, the Edmonton Chamber of Commerce, and many other social and not-for-profit organizations.  "Rather than waiting for them to evolve on a hit or miss basis, with the tools that exist today, we can actually explicitly design them and make them." He has been an appointed member on numerous agencies and advisory committees related to trade, education, innovation, engineering, economic development and employment at the local, provincial, federal and international level.  The recipient of numerous awards and recognitions, he continues to support the community with his time and resources in education, voluntary and not-for profit agencies, advisory and philanthropic roles. "If you really want to make a difference in greenhouse gases, if you're not looking at things that are a billion tons a year or more, you're not going to make a difference."

I am Bethany Russell, creator of Rice Diet Support, a new online community with FREE resources for people looking to improve their health with Dr. Walter Kempner's revolutionary Rice Diet. Being diagnosed with a life-altering illness in my 20's brought me to the work of Dr. John McDougall and Dr. Walter Kempner. In this presentation I discuss my personal health and weight-loss journey including how I lost 90lbs in 4 months in 2014! I demonstrate some of Kempner's medical archives with quotes from the experts on how dietary change can improve conditions such as: heart disease, diabetes T2, kidney disease, hypertension, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, obesity and more. Stress and external factors may play a role in our overall health, but what impacts our health the most is what we eat. I am not a success story, although I have some of those, I also have failure stories. I hope you will gain something from my presentation and walk away with a renewed perspective. My hope is to do my part to reach the sick and to spread the word of alternative therapies for people who may be walking in my shoes looking for their last hope. To anyone battling obesity and/or severe illness, my heart goes out to you. I hope and pray that you will find relief from your pain and that you may reach your goals. Never give up. Stand in hope!

Dr. Miriam Maisel, a pioneer in plant-based nutrition and lifestyle medicine, is this week's featured expert on the Health Science Podcast with host Dr. Frank Sabatino. Dr. Maisel shared her personal journey and professional experiences, as well as her work in stress management and palliative medicine.   Growing up, Dr. Maisel was inspired to become a vegetarian, driven by her love for yoga and environmental concerns. While in medical school, she had to hide her vegetarianism due to stigma.   Her exposure to the internet led her to explore medical fasting and plant-based nutrition. As a result, Dr. Maisel visited True North Health in California and began reading works by renowned experts like Colin Campbell, John McDougall, and Dean Ornish.   During her younger years, Dr. Maisel lived in a community in Israel that was among the first to practice organic farming.   She also became interested in meditation and Tai Chi, which eventually led her to Japan for three years. Her experience there inspired her to return to conventional medicine, seeking an evidence-based approach.   In Israel, she has observed a strong focus on tertiary care and hospital medicine. While there is some emphasis on prevention, diet is often overlooked. However, she emphasizes that there is a growing interest in plant-based nutrition and lifestyle medicine.   Throughout her career, Dr. Maisel has been drawn to palliative and hospice medicine, working in various hospice departments in the UK.   In recent years, she has also focused on stress management, earning a qualification from the Benson Henry Institute at Harvard. The program, called Smart Stress Management and Resiliency Training (SMART), teaches individuals to recognize and manage stress.   Dr. Maisel believes that teaching stress management to doctors can help them better understand their patients and provide more effective care. She has taught several groups of doctors in the UK, offering continuing education credits for her course.   In her practice, Dr. Maisel takes a compassionate approach, offering extended consultations and making her services accessible to those with limited resources. As a semi-retired physician, she feels privileged to practice medicine in a way that aligns with her values and beliefs. http://www.HealthScience.org/Podcast/029-Miriam-Maisel

We're honored to welcome Dr. John McDougall back to the podcast for another hearty discussion. Dr. McDougall was on the podcast on Episode 151, and we took a look at his storied life and career as a pioneering physician and talked about his discoveries that informed his unwavering practice of a starch-based diet. In this episode, Rip dives in on very specific topics to get his opinions on procedures like mammograms and colonoscopies, bone density scans, blood pressure medications and other pills, as well as treatments for hormone-related diseases like male pattern baldness, endometriosis, body odor, bad breath, and more!  Dr. McDougall has been in practice for almost 50 years and, if there's everyone who has earned the right to state their researched opinions, it's him. Yes, he has strong opinions about modern medicine, but his point is clear and simple. So many of these screenings, procedures and medications can be diminished or even eradicated with PLANTS, and more specifically, a starch-based diet.  He doesn't want his patients to undergo treatments that are harmful, painful, and expensive — when so many of the solutions are simple — It's the FOOD.

Dr. John McDougall was drawn to medicine because of his own health “fate.” At 18, he suffered a massive stroke and was an anomaly to the doctors in Michigan who wanted to explore “why” and “how” this could happen to someone so young. This health scare inspired his own journey to become a doctor, which eventually led McDougall and his wife, Mary, to Hawaii to practice medicine on a sugar plantation in Hawaii and service over 5,000 residents. What he saw there changed the course of his medical practice forever. The healthiest people on the island, the first-generation elders who had come from China, Japan, Korea, and the Philippines, were the healthiest and most vibrant people…still active, with no medications, and still in bodies fit for movement. It was their children and grandchildren, however, those second and third generations, that were struggling. Why? They had adopted a western diet of meat, dairy, and processed foods.  The secret, Dr. McDougall discovered, was STARCH. Those healthy islanders subsisted on a diet comprised mostly of rice, potatoes, vegetables, and fruits and THAT inspired the work he does today through his McDougall programs and education. Beyond diet, the McDougalls are also dedicated to informing citizens about the positive effects of dietary therapy on chronic disease and our Planet. Animal agriculture, as we're learning, is also one of the main culprits contributing to climate change and we discuss all of his “four deadly dietary deceptions” outlined at mcdougallfoundation.org. It's an inspiring conversation from one of the legends and it was an honor to sit down with Dr. John McDougall.
