Picture this – you're about to be wheeled into the operating room for triple bypass surgery. One artery is 100 percent blocked and two others are 65 percent blocked. You have an enlarged heart, leaky valves, and a heart murmur, among other issues. At the eleventh hour, your cardiologist says, “Look, we can do this triple bypass, or you can try whole food, plant-based diet.” You have no idea why, but you choose a plant-based diet. Surely it's easier than a triple bypass. Thanks to the work and encouragement of a certain Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr, you make the radical lifestyle change and your angina disappears within three weeks, putting you on a path to health, self-discovery, and a new purpose in life. Today, we're sharing the remarkable true story of Paul Chatlin. Inspired by the radical shift in his health and the desire to spread the word about plants, in 2014, Paul created the Plant-Based Nutrition Support Group, or PBNSG for short. PBNSG is dedicated to evidence-based education and advocacy of plant-based whole-food nutrition and an active lifestyle to prevent and reverse disease. They provide classes, community, and plenty of support to guide people in this transformation and optimize health. Paul is a true go-getter, working from the heart (pun intended) to help spread to good word about whole food plant-based nutrition.

5 DELICIOUS DINNER RECIPES to support your weight loss: https://www.chefaj.com/5-delicious-lo... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ MY LATEST BESTSELLING BOOK: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1570674086?... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Robert Breakey, MD, DipABLM “Health is a Gift You Give Yourself” Health and vitality are largely a result of Lifestyle choices that are available to all of us. In this podcast Dr. Breakey will lead us in an exploration of why and how a whole food plant-based lifestyle can help support people of all ages to enjoy a long, healthy, fulfilling and productive life well into their elder years. We will also discuss why the “Standard American Diet”, along with a generally sedentary, stressful lifestyle are the root causes of the most common chronic diseases we see in our health care settings every day. From this understanding also flows the good news: Most of these diseases-- including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, chronic kidney disease, Alzheimer's, certain cancers and many others -- are nearly always preventable, and, for many of these conditions, commonly reversible. Join us and learn how to “Add Years to Your Life and Life to Your Years”. Dr. Robert Breakey is a 5th generation graduate from the University of Michigan Medical School. He completed his Family Medicine residency at the University of Wisconsin in 1984 and his Board Certification in Lifestyle Medicine in 2019. He has followed a healthy Plant-Based lifestyle himself since 1977 and has practiced Lifestyle Family Medicine in Ann Arbor for 37 years. Since early in medical school he made it his mission to fill in the gaps in his traditional medical education by studying and living all of the pillars of Lifestyle Medicine as the foundational approach to addressing the root cause of the most common diseases seen by health care professionals across America. He has served in many leadership roles including long-term Chairman of the Board for his 950+ provider multi-medical specialty medical group “Integrated Health Associates” (IHA), https://www.ihacares.com/about/about-iha and as a Board member with his affiliated hospital system (SJMHS- Ann Arbor). Also as a Board Member for the Plant Based Prevention of Disease (P-POD) group https://www.preventionofdisease.org/o... and Board Chair for the Plant Based Nutrition Support Group, https://www.pbnsg.org/pbnsg-team . In these last 4 years he has been the Medical Director for the IHA William J. Fileti Center for Lifestyle Medicine that is now gaining an excellent reputation as a highly respected evidence-based organization that is generating strong national interest in Lifestyle Medicine among providers and community members. He is an accomplished public speaker and has presented dozens of lectures and seminars on Lifestyle Medicine for both lay and professional audiences over these last 40 years. In his spare time Dr. Breakey enjoys being with his family, skiing, sailing, scuba diving, traveling and watersports. ----------------------------------------------------------- VIDEO CHAPTERS 00:00 Guest introduction and Dr. Breakey's plant-based journey 0:11:53 Slide show presentation - Health is A Gift You Give Yourself 0:36:40 Viewer Q & A including Covid treatment, calcium intake and Lifestyle Medicine 0:53:13 Viewer Q & A including Vitamin D levels, restless leg syndrome, and turmeric 1:02:10 What Dr. Breakey eats in a day, more Chef AJ Q & A and Dr. Breakey's wife appears 1:16:40 Continued viewer Q & A including veggies, meletonin, and starchy foods 1:27:24 Continued viewer Q & A including heartburn, Vitamin D, and salad dressings 1:37:10 Continued viewer Q & A including blood work, lazy colons, and 100% WFPB 1:44:13 Continued viewer Q & A including Lyme disease/ MS treatment and Omega 6 & 3 1:59:50 Final thoughts and show wrap

Let's talk about the American meat-heavy diet and how it can contribute to disease and The COVID-19 outbreak, for instance, is believed to have originated in a Chinese "wet market" that sold sea animals, live birds, and exotic animals for human consumption. It seems that there is a correlation between the dangers of foodborne illness by eating or touching an animal who was infected. Not just the coronavirus but the Ecoli 0157 outbreak in 1993 by eating or touching an animal who was infected. 2. Let's talk about fitness, food, health, and confidence. 3. Let's talk about the social determinants of health and disparities in the African American community that have been writ large by the coronavirus pandemic.

The critical role of having a community is put into focus with a discussion of Roseto, Pennsylvania and the famous Roseto Effect. Alas, now a memory of modern life.

Groups like the Plant Based Nutrition Support Group, faith groups, sports leagues, and extended family and friends are another basis for total health and longevity.

In today’s episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast we talk to Shannon Farrell about how she overcame diseases and how she is now giving back. Shannon shares her health history with us, but it’s more like her unhealthy history. She has too many diseases and too many medications to mention here. She was wheelchair bound and a perfect candidate for disability, but neither of those options were acceptable. Shannon walks us through her thought process and in the most inspiring way sends the message to never settle with life if it is not the way you are willing to accept. Today Shannon is an avid runner and monitors doctors, nurses, athletes and organizes groups so everyone can benefit from a healthy plant-based lifestyle.   Shannon Farrell has over 27 years of experience in the medical field, including 18 years as a registered nurse in a multitude of roles. She prides herself on being a multidimensional health care provider to her patients and shares her vast knowledge obtained during her lengthy career. Shannon is currently an RN at the Beaumont Cardiac Rehabilitation centre in Michigan, in a unit that she helped build up from the ground level with a team of incredible coworkers. While working with patients to achieve their own maximal health and wellness, she realized the importance of her own health and the impact to teach others to live successfully with any type of chronic disease.

Hi Path Menders, Today I'm joined by Cardiac Rehabilitation Nurse, Shannon Farrell. Shannon is the volunteer director of Small Groups with the Plant Based Nutrition Support Group (PBNSG). She follows a whole food plant based diet as a means to control her own chronic disease states, has lost over 80 Lbs. in doing so and has experienced many other benefits by mending her path and leading a healthier life. As part of her position with PBNSG she manages both their Twitter and Instagram accounts. Today we talk in depth about her journey and path thus far. She shares some of her experiences as a cardiac nurse and the work being done by the Plant Based Nutrition Support Group - specifically the small groups thereof. Finally, we touch on the importance of maintaining a social network of people following a similar path. Thanks for listening! Don’t miss an episode!

At just 56 years old, our guest today had major blockages in his coronary arteries. After receiving a test that put him at a huge risk for a heart attack, he was on the gurney ready to go in for surgery...then something happened that would change his life forever. Years later, he is thriving and living a very active lifestyle, despite his family’s history of heart disease. Today’s guest is Paul Chatlin from the Plant-Based Nutrition Support Group and this is Lean Green DAD Radio.
