We talk about the connection between artery health and brain health, why cholesterol matters so much, what to do if a whole-food, plant-based diet does not lower LDL enough, and his take on one of the most debated foods in the kitchen: olive oil.  We also get into protein, muscle, bone health, B12, vitamin D, omega-3s, creatine, and why this way of eating does not have to be all-or-nothing.  What You'll Learn in This Episode  Why the message of How Not to Die  may be even more urgent 10 years later  How Dr. Greger's grandmother helped shape his mission as a physician  Why heart health and brain health are deeply connected  What women should understand about cholesterol, LDL, and the Portfolio Diet  Which foods may help support healthier cholesterol levels  Dr. Greger's current thinking on olive oil  How women can get enough protein on a whole-food, plant-based diet  What nutrients deserve special attention, especially B12, vitamin D, and omega-3s  Why resistance training still matters for muscle and strength  How creatine may fit into the conversation around aging and muscle  Why it's never too late to start eating better  The three foods Dr. Greger most wants people to add: berries, dark leafy greens/cruciferous vegetables, and legumes  The three things he suggests cutting back on first: trans fats, processed meats, and sugar-sweetened beverages  As always, talk with your own healthcare provider before making major changes to your diet, medications, or supplements — especially if you have heart disease, high cholesterol, osteoporosis, or other medical concerns.  And I'd love to hear from you.

(Originally recorded July 28, 2024 for another podcast Corinna once hosted, Nutrition Without Compromise — shared with permission.) Aging is often framed as inevitable decline. But what if much of what we call “aging” is actually preventable disease accumulation? In this essential re-release episode, Corinna Bellizzi sits down with Michael Greger, physician, internationally recognized speaker, and founder of NutritionFacts.org. Dr. Greger's latest book, How Not to Age, builds on the groundbreaking work of How Not to Die and How Not to Diet — translating peer-reviewed science into practical guidance for living longer and healthier. In this conversation, we explore: The difference between lifespan and healthspan Why excess protein may accelerate aging pathways The myth of “incomplete” plant proteins Fish consumption, pollution, and algae-based Omega-3 alternatives Autophagy, spermidine, and cellular repair The role of vitamin B12, vitamin D, and DHA The promise of lifestyle medicine in addressing Alzheimer's and chronic disease This episode launches a curated Care More Be Better re-share series highlighting foundational health conversations that remain deeply relevant today.

In this episode, host Tricia Friedman sits down with Dr. Michael Greger, bestselling author and founder of NutritionFacts.org, to explore why non-commercial, evidence-based health guidance matters more than ever. They discuss lifestyle medicine, plant-based nutrition, scientific integrity, cannabis research, and how small, testable behavior changes can dramatically improve long-term health. What This Conversation Is Really About Health advice is everywhere — but trustworthy guidance is not. This conversation slows things down and examines how to make informed choices in a noisy, commercialized health landscape, without absolutism, hype, or fear-based messaging. Dr. Greger shares: Why he donates 100% of book proceeds to charity How lifestyle medicine transformed his own family's health What the science actually says about cannabis — both risks and benefits Why updating guidance as evidence evolves is a strength, not a weakness How social support, not willpower, determines whether health changes last Key Topics Covered Why non-commercial health information matters How financial incentives distort nutrition and medical guidance — and how to recognize bias. Lifestyle medicine in practice Diet, movement, and daily habits as powerful tools for disease prevention and reversal. Plant-based eating (defined clearly) What "plant-based" actually means — and what it doesn't. Cannabis: separating evidence from ideology What newer human studies reveal about cancer risk, pain management, and safer use. Scientific uncertainty and misinformation How peer-reviewed research works, where it fails, and how to interpret studies responsibly. Behavior change that sticks Why short-term "experiments," bodily feedback, and social support outperform rigid rules. Who This Episode Is For Listeners overwhelmed by conflicting health advice Educators, parents, and caregivers navigating cannabis conversations Anyone curious about plant-based nutrition without extremism People interested in evidence-based, non-commercial wellness guidance Listeners looking for sustainable, realistic behavior change About the Guest Dr. Michael Greger is a physician, internationally recognized speaker, and New York Times bestselling author of How Not to Die.

It's a brilliant protective mechanism against cancer. But here's what's quietly sabotaging your health: as you age, your immune system starts losing its ability to remove these cells. They pile up in your tissues, pumping out inflammation day after day, which is why your blood markers for inflammation climb with every passing year. Scientists call it "inflammaging." These zombie cells are literally sitting in your body right now, actively contributing to the chronic inflammation driving disease and aging.The game-changer? Scientists tested dozens of drugs to clear these cells, but they had brutal side effects. Then they found three compounds in everyday foods that actually work: fisetin in strawberries, quercetin in red onions, and piperlongumine in long pepper. Dr. Greger shares the research showing people experiencing measurable benefits from eating as little as a teaspoon of chopped onions or a handful of fresh strawberries daily. He explains exactly why red onions beat white onions, why he personally switched from blackberries to strawberries despite their lower antioxidant content, and where to find long pepper to add to your diet. This isn't about taking another supplement or following a restrictive protocol. It's about understanding what's actually aging your body at the cellular level and using specific, accessible foods to fight back.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

How many health conditions stem from dietary patterns rather than requiring medication alone. The evolutionary mechanism of insulin resistance and the reality that when you eat can matter as much as what you eat, with the same calories producing opposite metabolic outcomes depending on meal timing.

We've all heard the buzz about GLP-1 medications like Ozempic—are they a miracle cure or a cause for concern? In this episode of the Food Junkies Podcast, Dr. Vera Tarman speaks with renowned physician, researcher, and bestselling author Dr. Michael Greger about the risks, benefits, and natural alternatives to GLP-1 drugs. Dr. Greger breaks down what the science really says: how these medications work, their long-term implications, and why many people stop using them. He also highlights how diet, exercise, and fiber-rich foods can naturally boost GLP-1, reduce cravings, and support lasting weight loss without the downsides. Together, they explore: The risks and side effects of GLP-1 medications Why weight loss plateaus on these drugs and what that means long-term The concerning issue of muscle and bone loss during rapid weight reduction Natural GLP-1 boosters like turmeric, cinnamon, vinegar, whole grains, legumes, and leafy greens Why fiber may be the single most important missing nutrient in our diets The role of food addiction, cravings, and our evolutionary biology How to maximize appetite regulation naturally through the “ileal break” phenomenon Dr. Greger makes the case for using whole food, plant-based nutrition to achieve the benefits of GLP-1 drugs—without the risks.
