Join us as we kick off season five with a playful and engaging exploration of the fascinating pawpaw fruit, a hidden gem native to North America. In this episode, we uncover the intriguing characteristics of pawpaws, also known by quirky names like the "poor man's banana" and "Indiana banana." Discover how this unique fruit, pollinated by carrion flies and beetles due to its meat-like scented flowers, thrives as an understory tree growing in clusters. We unravel its mysterious historical journey, discussing how pawpaws might be an unusual outlier in North American flora, potentially linked to tropical relatives and ancient survival through past ice ages. The conversation shifts to the modern challenges faced by the pawpaw tree, focusing on the impacts of suburbanization, industrialization, and invasive species. Despite not being officially endangered, the pawpaw's presence is dwindling, a concern noted by older generations. We reflect on its historical significance, exploring colonial records and the role Indigenous populations played in spreading the tree to northern regions. This backdrop provides valuable insight into the pawpaw's distribution across North America and highlights the importance of preserving this unique fruit. Listen in as we trace the evolution of pawpaw cultivation, discussing key periods of development and the dedicated efforts of pioneers in the permanent agriculture movement. From the early 20th century to the present day, the episode highlights influential figures and their contributions to pawpaw breeding, including Neil Peterson's breeding program and the work at Kentucky State University. We explore the challenges of bringing pawpaws to mainstream markets, such as their limited shelf life, and share lighthearted anecdotes about enjoying pawpaw-based treats like beer and ice cream. This season promises to shine a spotlight on lesser-known fruits, beginning with the remarkable story of the pawpaw.

Glen Merzer addresses the controversial portrayals of nutritional studies and their implications. He delves into the biases in studies funded by major food industries and how the cultural narrative often trumps scientific evidence, especially when it comes to meat consumption. Merzer also highlights the pitfalls of relying on studies that use inappropriate metrics or don't focus on clear health outcomes, emphasizing the need for research that genuinely evaluates the health impacts of our dietary choices. #NutritionalBias #ScienceVsCulture #DietaryTruths

I am the healthiest I can possibly be now at my age, almost 80. And I love my life. I love feeling so good. I feel like I can do anything I want to.    - Linda MiddlesworthYou're not going to believe that today's guest is turning 80 years old…. She is so freakin' full of energy, is incredibly passionate, and isn't afraid to share her truth with anyone and everyone who has her attention.Her name is Linda Middlesworth, and she is alive today only because her neighbor told her about Dr. John McDougall 35 years ago. He saved her life. She had cancer, severe heart disease, was more than 50 lbs. Overweight, and was pre-diabetic, even though she was then teaching over 20 classes a week of aerobics and weight training. Thanks to Dr. McDougall's book, Linda lost all her health issues within a few of months and then went on to become a VeganMentor health coach, a Food for Life Nutrition and Cooking Instructor, an animal rights activist, an event planner and an organizer of Sacramento Vegan Society with 5,190 members. She still teaches aerobics and weight training at the gym to this day and is now on the board of T.

“I'm an artist on the plate. I'm an advocate on the plate. I get to paint the plate with all these beautiful colors of the food I choose to cook.” —Nina Curtis   Advocating for the plate is a multi-faceted concept at the intersection of aesthetics, quality, and social responsibility. It is an essential part of promoting our health and shaping the well-being of our earthly home and everything in it.    But this movement is not as complicated as it may seem. In fact, the epitome of good health often lies in the simplicity of the food we choose to serve on our plates.

T. Colin Campbell, PhD has been dedicated to the science of human health for more than 60 years. Dr. Campbell grew up on a dairy farm and was the first in his family to go to college. He has his PhD and is MIT and Cornell trained and educated in nutrition, biochemistry and toxicology. His primary focus is on the association between diet and disease, particularly cancer. Although largely known for the China Study--one of the most comprehensive studies of health and nutrition ever conducted, and recognized by The New York Times as the “Grand Prix of epidemiology."  It has sold over 2 million copies worldwide.  Their studies have shown that animal protein has a very strong effect on the growth of cancer. Milk protein in their experiments turns on cancer 100% of the time. If they took it away, they could reduce it down to zero. Dr. Campbell's profound impact also includes extensive involvement in education, public policy, and laboratory research.   He is also the author of the The New York Times bestseller Whole, and The Low-Carb Fraud. Several documentary films feature Dr. Campbell and his research, including Forks Over Knives, Eating You Alive, Food Matters, and PlantPure Nation. He continues to share evidence-based information on health and nutrition whenever given the opportunity. He has delivered hundreds of lectures around the world and he is the founder of the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies and the online Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate in partnership with eCornell. Topics Discussed in the Podcast  from dairy farmer to PhD in Biochemistry research in the Philippines  Why we need to stop taking the reductionist view of nutrition how to overcome personal bias in science why WFPB is better than vegan complications of groupthink and industry/government interference how much animal protein is too much? the mechanism with animal protein that causes cancer why most doctors don't know a lot about nutrition what does protein deficiency look like?    Listen Now       Resources The China Study Book: Whole: Rethinking the Science of Nutrition eCornell Center for Nutritional Studies ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2 Ways to Give Back to the Show             Yay!  Our Podcast Sponsor- Osea Malibu —  Osea Malibu: vegan, non-toxic, earth-friendly skincare from California! —   Osea Malibu Atmosphere Protection Cream —  Use code “sonyalooney” for $10 of your first $50 purchase: Shop now!           ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't Miss an Episode: Subscribe!

Are you aware adult health is influenced by what we eat as adults AND as children?   Whilst it might seem difficult to believe the food we eat early in life can influence the diseases we develop and how long we live, most of us do understand that childhood nutrition is at least a little bit important. And that foods like cow’s milk, soft drinks and sugar-laden processed foods might not be the best things we can feed our children. So if you are a parent, a grandparent, a budding parent, or even a child, you’d do very well to listen to American pediatrician, Dr Jackie Busse on this episode of the New Normal Project podcast. Jackie is a board certified pediatrician with expertise in plant-based nutrition for kids and families. She grew up in Madison, Wisconsin, received her undergraduate and medical degrees from the University of Wisconsin, Madison, before training in pediatrics at Rush University in Chicago. Shortly after moving to California in 2011, she was introduced to "The China Study" and it changed her life and practice. She has been living and teaching a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle ever since.   As a founding member of the pediatric working group of the Plantrician Project Jackie was the lead author and editor of the Pediatric Quick Start Guide, published in 2018, and spoke at the International Plant Based Nutrition Healthcare Conference in 2019.  As an expert lecturer for the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutritional Studies, she recently rebuilt the pediatric and family lecture modules for the Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate program offered through eCornell. In addition to her full-time general pediatrics practice in Santa Cruz, CA, Jackie teaches an ongoing whole-food, plant-based nutrition series for adults as well as the nutrition component of a lifestyle medicine series for kids. She is a member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and a fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Most importantly, Jackie is a mother to two thriving plant-eaters, now 3 and 5 years old. She is passionate about sharing her knowledge, insights and personal experience with the plant-based lifestyle. Jackie has read widely on plant-based nutrition and is a world-renowned pediatric expert on the topic. In this conversation she speaks about: Growing up with a dairy farming grand-father Jackie’s own transition to a plant-based diet after her husband read “The China Study” Her progression to advising a plant-based diet in her pediatric medical practice A couple of excellent patient examples The importance of understanding that healthy kids make healthy adults How primary disease prevention can begin in childhood and even in pregnancy How 80% of adult chronic diseases come about from lifestyle factors That almost all 10 year old children eating a standard American diet have fatty streaks in their heart’s arteries The knowledge that our chances of cancer as an adult are affected by our childhood lifestyle Some wise thoughts about how we should think about genetics Childhood development of taste preferences Bringing up her own children as plant-based The differences between plant-based and animal-based diets on childhood health and disease The dangers of cow’s milk and other dairy-containing products How long women should consider breast-feeding for Which plant-based milk best approximates breast milk The difference between juices and smoothies Some practical recommendations for dealing with parties, sleep-overs and peer pressure Advice for those wanting a gluten-free plant-based lifestyle What breakfast, lunch and dinner looks like for an average day of her family Which supplements you might consider for your children Jackie knows what she is talking about. Her children have been plant-based their whole lives and her whole family is vibrant and thriving. On this podcast there is so much information about how best we can feed our children that it is truly a must listen.

Her advice to those experiencing a loss: become mindful and express gratitude. Carlyn shares this wisdom to pet owners: let's adjust our mindset to we are the guardians of these animals, our companion animals are so much more than pets, they can be our best health and wellness allies, helping us be more mindful and improve/transform our lives.

Grant and Heavey take on the realm of nutrition studies. Are they all-conclusive? Should you really trust them and follow their recommendations? Now, what if the study turns out to be erroneous? All this and more in this episode!

Dr. T Colin Campbell is one of America's leading nutritional research pioneers with over 60 years of experience. He has written over 300 research papers and one of the lead scientists of the China Project, the inspiration for the book, The China Project. He is Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell University and Founder of the Plant Based Nutrition Certificate. He has been featured in documentaries such as Forks Over Knives, Eating You Alive and Plant Pure Nation. Dr. Campbell shares with us insights in how we have become ignorant of nutrition's effect on health in medicine and in academia. He is a sage that I was blessed to discuss my own frustrations with the plant based diet movement in the medical profession. His perceptions can only be attained from someone who has endured the tribulations of pushing the boundaries of accepted scientific dogma. It was such an honor to speak to Dr. Campbell and I hope you will enjoy this interview as much as I did.

One of the key challenges I’ve seen in professionals over the years is stress, anxiety and lack of energy. After researching these issues, I’ve discovered that many of these symptoms can be significantly lessoned with a healthier diet. Dr. Campbell’s groundbreaking research clearly indicates that a better diet can reverse disease progression and make you feel a ton better. Your ability to be a successful professional is directly related to the quality of decisions you make each day. These decisions are influenced by many factors – one of the most is the amount of energy and stress you feel each day. These are directly affected by your diet. In case you’re not familiar with Dr. Thomas Campbell (DrTomCampbell), he has a degree from Cornell University and later received his medical degree from the University of Buffalo School of Medicine. Currently, he serves as the medical director for the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutritional Studies as well as the Co-Founder and Clinical director for the University of Rochester Program for Nutrition in Medicine. Today we’re going to dive into what led to the research behind The China Study, why folks should be investigating their diets more, and what they can do to implement simple nutritional changes to improve their lives. In this episode you'll discover: The two questions you need to ask when thinking about what to eat Recipes to make GREAT food that will make you feel GOOD The effect of a plant-based diet on chronic illnesses including diabetes & heart disease "Western diseases" and animal protiens How to get your kids on board with better food Links from the Show: Follow Dr. Campbell on Twitter | Facebook The China Study By T.

Thomas M. Campbell is a family practice doctor in Rochester, NY, an instructor of Clinical Family Medicine at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, and executive director of the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutritional Studies. He's also co-author of what's probably the most influential book on science-based nutrition, The China Study.

Dana Laake and her special guest Dr. Alan Gaby will be discussing how to look at results from recent nutritional studies, such as... “Are eggs really as bad as smoking? Are vitamins linked to mortality?” Alan Gaby, M.D., is a nutritional science expert and the author of Nutritional Medicine, a comprehensive, scientifically-based guide to the use of diet and nutritional supplements to prevent and treat illness. The book covers more than 400 different health conditions and disorders, with 60 chapters on individual nutrients. Information on dietary fundamentals, food additives, reactive hypoglycemia, food allergy, "sub-laboratory" hypothyroidism, and candidiasis is also included. Dr. Gaby considers Nutritional Medicine the pinnacle of his life's work – to investigate nutritional medicine and to teach others what he has discovered.
