She breaks down how the Seventh Day Adventist Church, John Harvey Kellogg, and powerful food and academic institutions worked together to manufacture the "Blue Zones" longevity story, and why the real history of Sardinia, Okinawa, Ikaria, and Loma Linda tells a very different tale about meat, pork, and animal fat. Make sure to listen to the full interview to learn more.Belinda Fettke is an independent researcher known for investigating the historical, religious, and commercial influences on modern dietary guidelines. After her husband, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Gary Fettke, was investigated for advising patients to reduce sugar and refined carbohydrates, she began researching the origins of nutrition policy and public health messaging.

Send us Fan MailNowadays, we hear terms like ‘Carnivore' and ‘Plant Based', and ‘Keto'- rarely Paleo or ‘Ancestral' about diets and nutrition.  I get it: we are constantly challenged in our thinking, and so it should be.  Health and fitness are journeys, we never really reach the end of that journey!  So let's examine the current ‘Journey' of health…Carnivore diets, eschewing all but beef and salt, are the big choice now.  And carnivore is a good choice for many, especially those who have long term conditions and diseases.  A carnivore diet is kind of a “hard reset”; like restarting your computer to get rid of all the junk that has accumulated.  You can give yourself a hard restart by going carnivore for a few months, and reverse things like diabetes, arthritis, and many other bad health conditions.  And it is so simple really- just eliminate every foodstuff other than meat!  Simple, but difficult, and for most folks- impossible!  But, for a period of time, say a number of months until you recover your health- it is a great idea!But then again- we all live in the real world.  Eventually most of us would love to reemerge into the real, human, and social world where we all get together with family, have dinners together with a wide variety of foodstuffs, and pick and choose what we know we can tolerate without harm to ourselves. To drink wine and beer with dinner, enjoy fellowship with others, and to bond over cigars and cognac…Yes, even health obsessed nutcases like myself enjoy such things- as I think we all ought to!  Life is a full gamet of pleasures and pitfalls, and we need to be careful what we discard and embrace!   We don't want to be obsessed with health alone, and ignore the beauties and varieties of life choices.Look at the grocery carts of your fellow shoppers.  (I do). Most of their food choices are so bad that it's awe inspiring, really!  So, for you, a compromise is in order: for the most part, choose ancestral foods, like your forebears would consume.  Be very sparing of foods that are manufactured- seed oils, snack foods, and commercial breads and pastries- most are horrid, but occasionally they are fine.  Just get the best versions you can, from small from scratch bakeries, with sour dough offerings and such.  Eat some vegetables, but only when in a good salad, or in a meal where they are a small side dish.  Oxalate laden kale and beet green dishes are best left- uneaten!  Eat carrots and such prepared in a manner your great grandmother would have done it.  Enjoy it all, but minimize desserts entirely, and perhaps eliminate them.  Have one piece of a fine chocolate like Dove, or Lindt, (I love their Orange Chocolate Bar!) and be done with it.  Paleo or Ancestral is kind of Common Sense Diet.  Eat what you really know, after doing your research and testing on your own body, works for you.  Stick with it, and work out regularly for strength, and flexibility.  Spend time outdoors, in nature, and walk barefoot.  Don't do endless cardio marathon running, and eat with common sense- NOT Doctor mandated nonsense from profit obsessed hospitals and clinics!  In fact, just as you avoid seed oils like margarine and Cool Whip and corn oil; also avoid doctors as much as possible.  They are not working in your interest- they have the clinic's agenda (the bottom line) and that is what they are required to follow.  Your health is not part of their agenda at all.Support the show

The E.U. Parliament has officially passed a ban on veggie products using 31 meat-like words like ‘steak' and ‘bacon' to describe their products, but burgers and sausages are still allowed. So should those terms be solely for meat products? Anton discusses all this with Denis Drennan, President of the Irish Creamery Milk Suppliers' Association and also Sandra Higgins, Director of Eden Farm Animal Sanctuary and Go Vegan World.

Plant-based nutrition has emerged as an important component of kidney care, but questions remain about how plant-based enteral formulas can best support people living with chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this episode of Kidney Commute: Pit Stop, host Dr. Raphy Rosen is joined by Brandon Kistler, PhD, RD, and Rachel Wontor, MS, RDN, CD, CNSC, to explore the growing role of plant-based enteral nutrition in clinical practice. The discussion examines the key features of plant-based formulas, including standard, renal-specific, peptide, and specialty options, and reviews how these products compare with traditional formulas in meeting nutritional needs. The panel also discusses when renal formulas may or may not be necessary, current evidence related to effectiveness and patient acceptance, insurance coverage considerations, and practical approaches for implementing plant-based enteral nutrition in healthcare settings. Clinicians will gain actionable insights to help support individualized nutrition care for people with CKD.

Trumped Up Tomatoes Cost 40% More Tomatoes are about to get a lot more expensive, and most Americans have no idea why. This week, I retreat to the kitchen to make a comforting vegan tomato soup, but even there, politics has a way of finding us. The biggest inflation story in food right now isn't beef, eggs, or milk—it's tomatoes. Prices are rising fast, and policy decisions could make them climb even higher. So while we chop, stir, blend, and cook, we'll also talk about the real-world impact of politics on your grocery bill, along with the latest headlines from entertainment, current events, and the never-ending news cycle. Sometimes the best way to survive a chaotic week is with a warm bowl of soup and an honest conversation.

Catherine Hayden is the Chief Marketing Officer at Kate Farms, the #1 doctor-recommended plant-based nutrition brand. Since joining the company in 2018, she has helped scale Kate Farms through rapid growth, multiple funding rounds, and its acquisition by Danone, while building an omnichannel business spanning healthcare, direct-to-consumer, subscription, Amazon, and retail. Catherine began her career as a Registered Dietitian, giving her a unique perspective at the intersection of healthcare, nutrition, and consumer behavior. Today, she leads brand strategy, commercial growth, innovation, and integration across both healthcare and consumer channels. Kate Farms was founded to solve a deeply personal problem. After being diagnosed with cerebral palsy at age five, Kate struggled to tolerate existing nutrition formulas and relied on a feeding tube for nourishment. What began as a solution for one child has since grown into a company that has nourished more than 600,000 people. In this episode, Catherine shares how Kate Farms evolved from a healthcare-focused company into a high-growth Ecommerce and omnichannel brand, including lessons on building DTC alongside Amazon, uncovering customer insights that reshaped the business, and expanding awareness and access without sacrificing growth.

As you probably learned if you listened to part 1 of our celebration of rice, It's one of the most important ingredients in plant-based cooking and food culture worldwide. It feeds billions, it travels continents, it carries centuries of culinary tradition and most of us at home cook it very blandly or in just one way, when there are countless ways. In this episode of More Plants, we explore how different cultures cook, celebrate, and build flavor with rice. From Jollof rice in West Africa, to risotto in Italy, biryani in South Asia, congee in East Asia, and pilaf in the Middle East, I'll share a bit more about how rice can be transformed with just a few simple changes in the way we cook it. You'll also learn: • Why rice is a foundation ingredient in so many plant-based meals • How techniques like toasting, simmering in broth, or layering ingredients create depth • How simple shifts in rice cooking can elevate everyday dishes • Tips to explore rice varieties and flavors from around the world If you want to explore new rice dishes and deepen flavors in your cooking, this episode is for you.

You don't have to look much further than your grocery receipt to see how climate change can affect our food supply chain. But some of the key drivers of climate change are sitting right in our carts. It's a chicken-or-egg debacle that we're happy to explore on this episode if it means understanding how we can create a more adaptable, equitable food supply chain.  Farms are dealing with historic heat waves slashing wheat and maize yields, record rainfall collapsing corn harvests, sea level rise swallowing farmland on the East Coast, and disappearing pollinators that one-third of our food supply depends on. And we're paying the price. We hear from our community about how the rising price of groceries has meant making sustainability tradeoffs on what they buy at the store. Food insecurity and the climate crisis are also intertwined. Maggie Baird, founder of Support and Feed, helps us understand how the animal agriculture industry is at the center of many climate (and health woes), challenging us to rethink food traditions rooted in culture and family identity. To better understand how we got here,  Commons founder Sanchali Seth Pal follows the money through animal agriculture subsidies.   Episode rundown: (00:54) - How our food choices and the climate crisis feed each other (02:30) - How climate change is affecting food prices (04:41) - When sustainable food becomes a luxury you can't afford (09:07) - Animal agriculture, culinary tradition, and food inequity with Maggie Baird (27:49) - Our tax dollars are making meat cheaper? (33:59) - Changing what we eat can change the climate

Elizabeth welcomes Robin Arzon - Peloton instructor, ultra-endurance athlete, bestselling author, entrepreneur, and creator of the Project Swagger podcast. Before becoming one of the most recognizable voices in wellness, Robin spent eight years as a corporate litigator in New York City, questioning whether feeling “just okay” was really the standard she wanted for her life. Robin and Elizabeth dive into the mindset shift that took her from law to fitness, how tuning into flow state helped her redesign her career, and why she chose to feel “proudly tired” instead of simply exhausted. Robin also shares the daily rituals behind her intense training schedule, from sleep optimization and recovery to the plant-based, protein-packed staples and philosophy behind her new cookbook, Eat To Hustle, and explains why movement, sleep, and fuel remain her top three non‑negotiables for thriving.

Be sure to check out her first appearances on Boundless Body Radio on episode 314, which is personally one of my favorite episodes that we've ever done, and also on episode 384, titled Religion, Blue Zones, and the "Plant Slant" with Belinda Fettke.In episode 314, we interviewed Belinda and her husband, Dr. Gary Fettke, and discussed the reasons why her husband was targeted by the Australian Health Practitioners Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and the Tasmanian Health Service for practicing a healthy fat, low-carbohydrate diet.Belinda took the initiative to research the bio-history of religion and its influences on nutrition policies and dietary guidelines. Her research revealed a massive influence of the Seventh-day Adventist church, their tax-free, financial stake in cereal and plant-based food companies, and their impact on what we are told to eat.Belinda and Gary opened the Nutrition for Life – Diabetes and Health Research Centre, which provides nutritional care around Tasmania and Australia.

Matt helps unpack why protein has become such a focal point, how to interpret the current evidence, and what outcomes actually matter when we're talking about intake and health. They explore the long-standing protein RDA and what it was designed to represent.The discussion then moves into protein quality, addressing common claims around plant versus animal protein, and why mechanistic research doesn't always align with long-term health outcomes. Matt also provides important context around dietary patterns and chronic disease risk, helping to separate the role of protein itself from the broader way people eat.They finish with a dive into choline, covering its role in the body, how it interacts with other nutrients like folate and betaine, and what this means for people following predominantly plant-based diets.It's a thoughtful, nuanced conversation that cuts through the noise and brings clarity to some of the biggest questions in modern nutrition.Dr Matt Nagra is a naturopathic doctor who graduated from the Boucher Institute after completing a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology at the University of Victoria. He holds additional board certifications in prescriptive authority, immunisations, advanced injection therapies, intravenous therapies, and acupuncture. Using an evidence-based approach, he creates individualised treatment protocols tailored to each patient's health goals and lifestyle.He has a particular passion for plant-based and vegan nutrition, physical medicine, and chronic disease treatment. With additional training in nutrition, he holds a Plant-Based Nutrition Certification from Cornell University and the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies, where he has also authored multiple articles. His work aims to support individuals in thriving on plant-based diets, while bridging the gap between lifestyle-based interventions and medical care.Choline paper: https://www.academia.edu/3067-1345/2/4/10.20935/AcadNutr8085Instagram: @dr.matthewnagraDr. Nagra's website Curranz Supplement: Use code MIKKIPEDIA to get 20% off your first order - go to www.curranz.co.nz  or www.curranz.co.uk to order yours NZ listeners - save 10% off Calocurb by using the code Mikkipedia10 at www.calocurb.co.nzContact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

When Billie Eilish recently stated that you cannot claim to love all animals while simultaneously eating them, the internet imploded. From accusations of "vegan privilege" to debates over Indigenous rights and MCAS-friendly diets, the backlash was a masterclass in cognitive dissonance. This mini solo episode discusses: The Contradiction: Why Billie's statement triggered so many people and the psychology of why we "love" some animals but consume others. The Health Debunk: Addressing the claims that plant proteins are "hard to digest" or incompatible with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). The Science of "Fake" Meats: A 2024 meta-analysis shows that plant-based meat alternatives actually lead to better cardiometabolic outcomes (lower LDL, cholesterol, and weight) when replacing animal meat. The "Anti-Indigenous" Shield: Why using Indigenous survival as an excuse to buy factory-farmed meat is a form of tokenism that erases Indigenous vegans and those following a plant-based diet (including my own Métis family).  The "Vegan Police": My take on the internal community backlash regarding Billie riding horses and why we need to prioritize progress over perfection. Mentioned in this episode: Quote by @hiilanilily on Indigenous sovereignty and veganism. Cardiometabolic health meta-analysis on plant-based meat alternatives.

After all, the organic product option is definitely going to be more expensive…right?   Not quite. Let's save some money together. In this episode, we'll talk about buying fruits and vegetables organic. Let's see if it's a fact or myth that organically grown produce will always be way more expensive than conventionally grown versions.

What if the injury that wrecked your plans was actually the most precise thing the universe ever did for you? Koya Webb was a nationally ranked heptathlete...13th in the country.... Seven events.... The Olympics were a real, scheduled destination. Then, mid-stride walking to class, her back said no. Not a pulled muscle. A full stop.What followed wasn't a detour. It was a download. In this conversation, Koya unpacks what most of us in the wellness space refuse to admit: that the body isn't just a vehicle, it's a spiritual instrument. And it will use pain, injury, grief, and exhaustion to force the conversation you've been too busy to have.We get into the three emotional states that govern every decision you make (and why most of us are stuck in survival mode way more than we realize), why breathwork might be the most underused healing tool on the planet, and what it actually looks like to surrender to darkness instead of just trying to outrun it.Koya also gets vulnerable about losing her mother unexpectedly, breaking a glass in her hand and watching herself bleed without feeling anything, and how that moment cracked open a depth of healing she didn't know she needed.This one hits different. You've been warned.In this episode:How a stress fracture became the most inconvenient divine intervention in sports historyThe three neuroemotional states (survival, emotional, executive) and how to tell which one is running your lifeWhy "surrendering to the darkness" isn't giving up. It's how real healing startsThe conscious connected breath technique Koya calls "breath healing," and why she uses it every single morningWhy longevity starts with self-love, not your supplement stackWhat to do when you're afraid that if you fall into the darkness, you won't come back outAbout Koya WebbKoya Webb is a globally recognized holistic wellness expert, longevity specialist, and transformational speaker. She is the founder of Get Loved Up Yoga School, a certified breathwork facilitator, plant-based nutritionist, and somatic coach.

This week on Vedge Your Best, Erin Stanczyk of EatMoveRest.com shares the health struggles that pushed her to question the standard American diet and eventually build an entirely different life around food, movement, and rest. Symptoms like anxiety, brain fog, sluggish digestion, irregular cycles, and high cholesterol in her twenties led Erin to search for answers beyond quick fixes, which led her to a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle.One step led to the next.  After hearing Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, letting go of animal products one step at a time, working through protein fears, and discovering that simple really is sustainable, Erin and her husband Dusty went on to build EatMoveRest.com. Now they share recipes, wellness tools, an app, retreats, and their family cookbook, The Happy Healthy Plant-Based Cookbook. (The Stanczyks | EatMoveRest)Michele and Erin also talk about raising plant-based kids without perfectionism, leading by example instead of pressure, making healthy food colorful and fun, and why “rest” is about much more than sleep. This is a practical conversation for anyone who wants to feel better, start smaller, and build a plant-based life that works in real life with real friends and family, not just in theory.In this episode, we talk about:Erin's early health struggles and the search for answersFood as medicine and the shift to whole-food, plant-based livingWhy eggs were the last thing to goGetting past protein obsessionBuilding EatMoveRest out of personal healingCreating simple, family-friendly plant-based mealsRaising kids by example, not pressureBite-size habits and the power of getting 1% betterWhy rest is more than sleepCommunity, retreats, and the value of immersion and supportResources Mentioned:EatMoveRestThe Happy Healthy Plant-Based CookbookEatMoveRest appEatMoveRest retreats (The Stanczyks | EatMoveRest)Subscribe & Review:If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform.

So how do you be smart on your grocery shop and what do you need to look out for?   Let's talk about this today. In this episode, I'll tell you why you need to be smart when choosing plant-based or vegan commercial products to buy and why you can't just take packages at face value.

New Money Making Conversations episodes drop daily. I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Shica. Interview Purpose The purpose of this interview is to highlight entrepreneurial reinvention, faith‑driven resilience, and product‑based business building, using Dr. Shica’s journey from educator to founder of Dr. Shica’s Bakery as a powerful example of how unexpected setbacks can unlock hidden purpose. The conversation demonstrates that entrepreneurship does not always begin as a plan—it often begins as a response to disruption. Dr. Shica’s story shows how education, discipline, creativity, and belief can transform a side passion into a scalable, nationally relevant brand. Major Themes & Key Takeaways 1. Entrepreneurship Can Be Born From Adversity Dr. Shica did not set out to build a baking business. After losing her job during the COVID‑19 pandemic, she was forced to reassess her future. What began as weekend baking quickly evolved into a business opportunity when encouragement from others met growing demand. Key takeaway: Unexpected endings often reveal opportunities you didn’t know you were prepared for. 2. Education Is Transferable—Even Outside the Classroom With three degrees in education, including a doctorate, Dr. Shica reframes her career transition not as a departure from teaching, but as an extension of it. Through her bakery, she continues to educate consumers about better‑for‑you, plant‑based foods. Key takeaway: Education is not limited to institutions—it can live inside entrepreneurship. 3. Why Vegan Was the Strategic Choice Dr. Shica intentionally built a vegan, plant‑based cookie brand to serve a wider audience, including those with dietary restrictions, health considerations, and evolving food preferences. The goal was inclusivity without sacrificing flavor. Key takeaway: Building products for “everyone” means being intentional about accessibility. 4. Talent Is Sometimes Hidden Until Circumstances Force Discovery Although she came from a family of bakers, Dr. Shica did not recognize her full talent until she had no choice but to act. Customer feedback, pop‑up success, and celebrity validation confirmed what she hadn’t previously claimed for herself. Key takeaway: You may not discover your strongest gift until you are pushed to use it. 5. Pop‑Ups as Proof of Concept Dr. Shica used pop‑ups and kiosks as testing grounds—refining recipes, gathering feedback, and maintaining product standards. Consistency, premium ingredients, and refusing to sell anything less than excellent became core principles. Key takeaway: Small tests create big confidence when done intentionally. 6. Scaling Through Innovation: Cookie Mixes The creation of her cookie dough mix solved multiple challenges: consistency, scalability, and nationwide shipping. What began as an internal solution became a product line customers could take home and recreate. Key takeaway: Scaling often comes from solving an internal problem creatively. 7. Brand Integrity and Consistency Matter Dr. Shica emphasizes that every product carries her heart, soul, and reputation. If something didn’t meet her standards, it was remade—no exceptions. That commitment built trust and repeat business. Key takeaway: Quality is the quiet engine behind brand longevity. 8. Faith + Work Ethic = Sustainability When asked about her secret to success, Dr. Shica centered her answer on faith first, hard work always. She acknowledges the added challenges faced as a minority woman founder and the need for spiritual grounding to navigate buyers, retailers, and scaling pressure. Key takeaway: Faith can fuel consistency when entrepreneurship gets heavy. 9. Vision Beyond the Present Moment Dr. Shica’s long‑term goal is to build a legacy brand—comparable to household names—while ensuring her face, story, and values remain part of the company’s identity for future generations. Key takeaway: Legacy branding connects today’s hustle to tomorrow’s impact. Notable Quotes “I didn’t even know I had this talent until I was laid off.” “I wanted to create something delicious that everyone could enjoy.” “If it wasn’t perfect, I made it again.” “I’m still educating—just through cookies.” “Consistency is everything.” “Jesus, take the wheel.” “Stay prayed up, and then put in the work.” Overall Message Dr. Shica’s interview is a testimony of faith, adaptability, and disciplined creativity. Her journey reinforces that success is not always about following the original plan—it’s about recognizing opportunity, honoring your standards, and trusting the path as it unfolds. Her story shows that when passion meets preparation and belief, even a kitchen dream can become a national brand with purpose and legacy. #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
