If you have been used to a ‘meat and potatoes' diet for almost all your life, it can be daunting to even think about the possibility of moving to a plant-based diet lifestyle. In fact, it may feel almost impossible to move away from decades of eating steaks, fried chicken, fries, ultra-processed foods and limited veggies. You may fear having to give up meat and all that you love in your current way of eating, and being forever destined to a plateful of bland vegetables at mealtimes.   The good news is this - your current fears of leaving a meat-based diet lifestyle may be unfounded. In this episode, I'm excited to share with you 3 key reasons why moving to plant-based eating will be easier than you think! Get ready to have some of your burning questions answered, like “Will plant-based eating make my meals limited?”, “Is this way of eating bland and tasteless?”, and “Will I have to say goodbye to favorites like pizza?”   I hope this episode helps you on your health journey, my Friend!   Join -> Plant-Powered Life Transformation Course: www.plantnourished.com/ppltcourse Contact -> healthnow@plantnourished.com Learn -> www.plantnourished.com Enjoy 1:1 Coaching Support -> https://www.plantnourished.com/coachingwaitlist Get Free 15-Minute Strategy Call -> www.plantnourished.com/strategycall Free Resource -> 7 Ways to Test-Drive a Plant-Based Diet: www.plantnourished.com/testdrive     Have a question about plant-based diets that you would like answered on the Plant Based Eating Made Easy Podcast?

When it comes to thinking about the future of food, is it possible to re-imagine our individual and collective appetites around what we want it to be? Taste is subjective, sure, but it's also deeply embedded in the land, histories, politics, and sociocultural dynamics we navigate throughout our lives. And as my guest this week, Alicia Kennedy, writes, our tastes are also shaped by how we value (or don't value) ingredients and their own histories.  Alicia is a writer from Long Island. She is the author of No Meat Required: The Cultural History and Culinary Future of Plant-Based Eating, and On Eating: The Making and Unmaking of My Appetites, which is out officially as of today through Hachette. Her newsletter, From the Desk, covers food, culture, politics, and media, and she is launching Tomato Tomato, a literary journal of food writing, in 2026.  Alicia is back on the show today to speak about On Eating, exploring the process of weaving the personal and cultural histories of ingredients through her chapters, the interrogation of early appetites and their influence on her food writing, the dynamics of feminine appetites in food media, and the importance of properly considering the labour of growing and producing food as a way to unpack Western appetites.

My client Zohreh struggled for a number of years without sustained success in losing weight. She also was dealing with health issues like high cholesterol and has a strong family history of diabetes and heart attacks. On top of that, she juggles a full-time job with long commutes.   Yet, Zohreh wanted to make a shift - a REAL one - in her weight and health. So she did. She reached out to me and we began working together.   In this episode, we'll delve more into Zohreh's weight loss journey, her views on eating plant-based as a lifestyle after 9 months, her increased confidence when eating out and the role guided support played in her plant-based diet transition experience.

Have you ever tried to lose weight…then got frustrated when the results didn't stick? That was certainly the case for my client Zohreh. She had tried different diets in the past, but none seemed to give her the sustained results she desired. Until she came to plant-based eating.   Coming from many years of eating a pescatarian diet, Zohreh thought making this transition would (and should) be easy. But she ended up feeling lost and unsure of how to best eat on a plant-based diet, to reach her desired goals of losing weight and reducing her risk of diabetes, heart attacks and other health problems.   After getting support through coaching though, this all changed. Staying plant-powered became workable and enjoyable, even while Zohreh continued to juggle a full-time job and long commutes. Listen in to this interview between Zohreh and I, recorded 9 months after we started working together. In this episode, you'll hear about her background, past weight challenges and some of the key positive changes she has enjoyed since moving into a whole food plant-based diet. These include weight loss, lower cholesterol, greater energy and a greater confidence in being able to stay weight stable, even after trips and holidays.

Do you have a loved one suffering from dementia, and have you started noticing a few worrying signs of it in yourself? Maybe it's not you, but others around you who have noticed…and that's concerning you more than you want to admit.   Either way, you know you want to stay as mentally sharp and alert as you can, for as long as possible. So do we just sit and wait, hoping that our minds won't fail too quickly and badly? Or is there something we can to do to slow down or prevent rapid mental decline, by changing the foods on our plates?   Let's talk about this. In this episode, we'll see how eating differently – specifically adding in more fiber-rich plant-based foods to our meals – can help build a stronger, more mentally active brain and even cut dementia risk.

Is veganism really “dead”, or is that just the headline? In this episode, I'm joined by Jessica Scott-Reid to unpack the recent wave of media stories claiming that veganism is over. We explore what those articles often miss, how plant-based diets are frequently conflated with veganism, and why cultural narratives around meat consumption are shifting in surprising ways. Jessica Scott-Reid is a journalist and animal advocate. She writes for media across Canada, including The Toronto Star, Winnipeg Free Press, Corporate Knights Magazine and others. She is also the culture and disinformation correspondent for Sentient Media. In our conversation, we discuss: The media framing of veganism as a “failed trend” The difference between veganism and plant-based diets The rise of meat-fluencers and cultural messaging around meat, politics, and nutrition Industry-funded efforts to discredit plant-based eating How plant-based meat alternatives are labeled “ultra-processed” and what that framing leaves out The growing role of disinformation in food media This is a thoughtful, nuanced conversation about media, perception, public health, and how narratives are shaped in real time. If you've been confused by the headlines, this episode will bring clarity.

Have you seen the new 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans and wondered if you should follow them? You may have seen talk about them on the news and social media, and don't know quite what to believe. The slogan of eating more ‘real foods' sounds good though, and the New Pyramid diagram seems to show that all foods - including butter, steak, whole milk and cheese – would be fine to eat and that we don't really need to worry about the amounts eaten.

Vidcast:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DMYYGQHJoa9/Those consistently eating healthy plant-based foods were half as likely to fall victim to cardiac disease as those on a typical western diet.  Johns Hopkins epidemiologists reviewed data from 7,708 respondents, mean age 45 years, replying to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.  The participants were divided into 4 groups according to their reported consumption of health plant-based foods, and their susceptibility to cardiac disease was quantified by measurement of their circulating cardiac troponins and n-termination natiuretic peptides.The results showed that the risk having of elevated circulating cardiac biomarkers, a sign of cardiac disease, was 49%% lower for those eating the most healthy plant-based diets compared with those consuming the least.  The healthiest plant-based foods included fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, and olive or canola oils.  On the other hand, those eating the worst diets containing red meat, fried foods, and palm oils bore a 65% higher risk of heart issues.  Somewhere in-between are the plant-based meats sold under the Beyond and Impossible brands.  These offerings, while lacking meat proteins, are highly processed containing excess salt and saturated fats due to the addition of coconut or palm oils to improve texture.The bottom line: stick with natural sources of plant-based proteins and you'll likely live longer.https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/unhealthy-plant-based-diets-may-significantly-raise-heart-disease-riskhttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666667725001047#plantbased #westerndiet #processed #cardiac #diabetes

When Kim White found herself battling constant exhaustion, unexplained pain, and feeling "old" before her time, she knew something had to change. After watching the documentary "Game Changer," she decided to try plant-based eating – a decision that would transform her health and vitality in ways she never imagined possible.Kim's journey wasn't about weight loss or following trends – it was about survival. Together with her husband (a self-proclaimed "meatitarian" who surprised her by joining completely), they discovered that within just weeks of eliminating meat, dairy, and eggs, their bodies began to transform. Morning aches vanished, afternoon energy crashes disappeared, and that uncomfortable "rock gut" feeling after meals became a distant memory. Most surprisingly, her husband effortlessly lost 100 pounds without counting calories or feeling deprived.Throughout our conversation, Kim dispels common misconceptions about plant-based eating. Far from feeling hungry or restricted, she describes a lifestyle where they "eat all they want" while enjoying improved satiation. She shares practical strategies like batch cooking beans and rice weekly, using vegetable broth instead of oil for sautéing, creating quick "throw together" meals for busy days, and even making homemade plant-based cheeses that taste better than dairy versions.For those curious but hesitant, Kim offers accessible starting points: begin by noticing how different foods make you feel, try one plant-based meal weekly, or simply explore recipes that sound delicious regardless of labels. Her experience proves that small changes can lead to dramatic improvements in how we feel in our bodies – without deprivation, complicated cooking methods, or breaking the bank.Ready to explore how adding more plants to your plate might transform your own health? Listen now to get inspired by Kim's practical wisdom and infectious enthusiasm for feeling good from the inside out.

Have a love-hate relationship with avocados? If so, I don't blame you – I do too. Some days, I'm delighted to cut open an avocado and see a smooth blemish-free interior to enjoy. On other days, I'm utterly disappointed when I cut open one and find a blemished brown and ugly interior, and have to toss it away in disgust. Such a waste of money! But with rising food and gas prices, it's now even more important to know how to stretch our food dollars and make what we buy last longer. And I've discovered ways now to minimize those ‘not-so-good' avocado days.   So, let's talk avocados. In this episode, I'll show you how to wisely pick avocados from the store, then how to best store them at home. This way, you can enjoy them more, with less stress and worry about having to use them up fast before they spoil. If you've never tried an avocado before, make sure to listen in too, so you can learn from the get-go how to best buy and store them, and save money and needless frustration in your plant-based diet transition!     Join -> www.plantnourished.com/ppltcourse Contact -> healthnow@plantnourished.com Learn -> www.plantnourished.com Connect in the Facebook Community -> www.bit.ly/pbdietsuccess Apply -> Free Rapid Health Transformation Call: https://bit.ly/plantnourished Free Resource -> Quick Start Grocery Guide for Plant-Based Essentials: www.plantnourished.com/groceryguide     Have a question about plant-based diets that you would like answered on the Plant Based Eating Made Easy Podcast?

121: Reversing Diabetes with a Whole-Food Plant-Based Lifestyle with Lewis Bertus

NHA Health Science Podcast

Type 2 diabetes affects more than 422 million people worldwide, yet many don't realize that it can be reversed with the right approach. This figure comes from the World Health Organization (WHO) and unfortunately, continues to increase.  Lewis Bertus, PA-C, is on a mission to change that. As the founder of Diabetes180, Lewis has helped countless individuals transform their health using a low-fat, whole-food, plant-based approach. Featured on the NHA Health Science Podcast with Dr. Frank Sabatino, Lewis shares his groundbreaking methods and personal journey, which combines professional expertise with deeply rooted values. A Holistic Start: From Theology to Medicine Lewis's foundation in holistic health began early, growing up in the Seventh-day Adventist faith, which emphasizes the connection between physical and spiritual well-being. His undergraduate studies in theology further shaped his belief in holistic healing, and his early career in community outreach gave him firsthand experience addressing preventable health challenges. “I grew up understanding that if you nourish the body correctly, it can heal itself,” Lewis said, crediting his upbringing for introducing him to plant-based principles long before they were mainstream. Personal Experience Sparks Professional Mission The inspiration behind Diabetes180 came from a personal challenge—helping his wife reverse her diabetes. Despite following conventional dietary advice and even experimenting with a keto diet, her condition persisted. Frustrated but determined, Lewis dove deep into research and implemented a low-fat, whole-food, plant-based diet. “Within six weeks, her blood sugar normalized,” Lewis shared. “Her success became the catalyst for what is now the Diabetes180 program.” Breaking Down Diabetes: Addressing the Root Cause Contrary to popular belief, Lewis explained, type 2 diabetes isn't caused by carbohydrates. Instead, he highlighted how excess dietary fat creates insulin resistance. Excess dietary fat creates a barrier that prevents insulin from effectively delivering glucose into the cells. By focusing on a low-fat, whole-food, plant-based diet, clients in the Diabetes180 program can significantly enhance their insulin sensitivity and take meaningful steps toward reversing diabetes. The Diabetes180 Program: A Path to Transformation Lewis's three-month program offers a comprehensive approach to reversing diabetes, focusing on: Dietary Transition: Guidance on adopting a low-fat, plant-based diet. Mindset Coaching: Practical tools for managing stress and fostering a positive outlook. Exercise Recommendations: Customized plans incorporating both aerobic and resistance training. Lewis's wife, a former diabetic, co-leads the program, bringing personal insight and emotional support to clients navigating similar journeys. Tackling Sugar Cravings and Integrating Fasting Addressing sugar cravings effectively requires a complete dietary reset, as gradual changes often prove less successful. The program also incorporates intermittent fasting as a powerful strategy for clients with persistent insulin resistance. By synchronizing eating patterns with natural circadian rhythms, fasting promotes faster recovery and supports improved metabolic health. Bridging the Gap Between Patients and Physicians One of the biggest challenges Lewis faces is overcoming the widespread misconception that carbohydrates cause diabetes. By educating clients—and sometimes their physicians—on the science of insulin resistance, Lewis helps pave the way for sustainable health improvements. Lewis ensures that clients understand his role as a supportive coach and resource, complementing the care provided by their primary healthcare team rather than replacing it. This collaborative approach empowers clients to make lifestyle changes while maintaining the guidance of their existing medical professionals. Ready to Reverse Diabetes?

[02:00] It started with church.  [04:50] The spiritual side of plant based eating.  [07:00] Lewis' wifes' diabetes was a huge motivator to start his coaching practice.  [11:00] Is the problem fat or carbs? [14:00] Is what you eat “gumming” the lock?  [16:00] In the long run, it's easier when you make a clean break from sugar.  [20:00] Diabetes180 program elements.  [27:30] The role intermittent fasting has on our health.  [31:00] Start the day with your largest meal.  [34:00] Stop masking your symptoms.  [40:00] Strategies to manage stress.  [43:00] What's on the horizon for Lewis.   Read more at: https://www.healthscience.org/podcast/episode-121-lewis-bertus/
