Mariana Fernández-Fígares is a medical student who is also studying the Nutrition and Dietetics degree in Spain. She became interested in nutrition at a very young age, when she was 11 because she was diagnosed with a lymphoma. Since then, Mariana has been learning about evidence based nutrition, with a particular focus on plant based diets. She became vegan when she was 15. Her first scientific article has been recently published in Nutrition Reviews, one of the most important nutrition scientific journals in the world. Its a review article about the role of a healthy plant based diet for the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes. She's working on new scientific articles about healthy plant based (vegan) diet on disease prevention and reversal. In this interview Mariana explains the potential of a healthy plant based diet in the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes and why it is the dietary pattern that results in the best health outcomes according to scientific evidence. She discuss how animal based low carb diets, that are usually prescribed to diabetes patients, can increase insulin resistance, alter blood lipids and have shown to be associated with higher risk of cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and mortality.

Breast Implants. Did you know that over time - even quite quickly - Breast Implant Illness can be detrimental to our overall health. Breast implant illness (BII) is a condition that isn't well understood but that can be debilitating. The symptoms vary from person to person and can include fatigue, joint pain, memory and concentration problems, and more.Breast implant illness (BII) refers to a wide range of symptoms that develop in some people who have reconstruction or cosmetic enlargement with breast implants. BII isn't an official medical diagnosis because it's still not well understood. But some experts believe BII symptoms may be caused by an autoimmune or inflammatory reaction to the implants. BII can affect people with any type of breast implant, including silicone gel-filled, saline-filled, smooth surface, textured surface, round, or teardrop-shaped. BII can develop whether implants have ruptured or stayed intact. So, what was Amanda's story?

Join us as we talk to Jenny about how she healed her IBS through a plant-based diet and what her life is like now after having diarrhoea for 8 months straight! Free Consultation with High Carb Health: https://www.highcarbhealth.com/healthsurvey/ Jenny's testimonial: I am SO grateful for high carb health and Shukul and Shamiz!! After having a doctor tell me they would put me on medications for IBS, I decided to research online and found high carb health. I decided to do their coaching program first and see if that would help. I had already tried multiple diets… Paleo, Keto and GAPS. None of them worked for me, and things kept getting worse. I decided to try a Whole Foods Plant-Based diet and then learned about high carb health. Almost immediately things began to improve. My stomach issues have now resolved, and I feel so grateful. It was nearly a year ago that I completed their program and I am still doing well! Thank you Shukul and Shamiz!

Dr Gemma Newman joins me on the podcast to discuss the many health benefits of a plant-based diet.Gemma has nearly 20 years' experience as a family doctor, is a member of the British Society of Lifestyle Medicine and is on the board of Plant-Based Health Professionals UK.I'm moving towards a more plant-based diet because the evidence shows it can have a significant improvement on all sorts of health issues. From reducing inflammation, slowing the ageing process, reducing the risk of certain cardiovascular diseases, reversing and preventing diabetes, reducing symptoms of the menopause, strengthening the immune system, alleviating symptoms of arthritis, lupus and MS, and much more.It's a fascinating area of research and Gemma is a wonderful resource, not least because she has observed significant improvements in her own health from switching to a Whole Foods Plant-Based diet.However, changing the way you eat is no small feat and you'd be right to have questions. In this episode, @drgemmanewman and I discuss:What a whole foods plant-based diet (WFPB) means and what it looks likes.Why eliminating meat doesn't mean you won't be getting enough protein in your diet - and other ‘deficiency' myths around cutting out meat.Why diets are short-term and WFPB is something to apply in the long-term as a way of life.The confusing messaging coming from the food industry.The impact changing your diet can have on stress and anxiety.The macro and micronutrients of a WFPB diet and where supplementation is and where it isn't appropriate.Gemma's wish for us to move towards conservation agriculture.Food freedom and intuitive eating.Her thoughts on ‘healthy at any size', and much more…To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.

In this episode I interview Michelle Baade, wife, mom, and grandmother in small-town Wisconsin, about how a whole-foods, plant-based diet has dramatically altered her and her husband’s health trajectory, and transformed their relationship with food.Michelle and her husband were overweight, suffering from several ailments, and were at high risk for heart disease, diabetes, and stroke. Starting in 2016 they decided to cut animal-based products, and even oil to a great extent, out of their diet for one year. They’ve never looked back because they regained control of their health and wellness.I ask Michelle to tell me about what it was like to make this abrupt transition, both emotionally and practically. She explains how planning, shopping, and preparing meals changed, and describes what they eat day in, day out,. She also shares some her family’s new favorites recipes, including a twist on her mom’s lasagna, comfort-food tacos filled with jackfruit, and a General Tso stir fry using soy curls.You’ll hear that one of the big changes in how they eat is that they don’t eat out (or order in) nearly as often as they did before. Michelle explains what they do when they eat away from home.Finally, Michelle offers advice on how to adopt a whole-food, plant-based diet. She reiterates that she and her husband don't have any super powers that enabled them to make this change in diet. She claims that if these "meat and potato" folks could do it, anyone can adopt a whole-foods, plant-based diet.

After my triple by-pass, my doctors suggested I go on the DASH diet and then the Mediterranean diet. After a year and a half, I didn't feel any better. I began to do some research on diet and health. After some research, I learned that the western diet is horrible for the human body and is responsible for cancers, disease, and heart disease. I explored and went on the whole foods plant-based diets. It's only been a few months. In a short amount of time, my blood pressure is getting better and I've lost 15 LBS. So what is the whole foods plant-based diet? Well, take a listen for the answer. #plantstrong #wholefoodplantbaseddiet #health #healthyliving #cardiovasculardisease #triplebypass #police #plantbased #vegan #vegetarian #diabetes #pre-diabetes

Thank you so much for being a listener. Thank you so much for sharing this podcast with those you love. Enjoy today’s interview.   [00:01:32] Ashley James: Welcome to the Learn True Health podcast. I’m your host, Ashley James. This is episode 433. I am very excited for today’s guest. Dr. Greger, you are quite an honored guest to have here today. My best friend and I are both whole food plant-based. She just wants you to know that if you ever become single she would leave her husband for you. You’ve got a lot of fans. You’ve got a lot of fans here. We’re big admirers of your work, your books—How Not to Die, How Not to Diet—and then you have the latest one, How to Survive a Pandemic. I can’t wait to talk about that. Your website nutritionfacts.org is fascinating. I highly recommend everyone go to it and use it. How do you do everything you do? You’re constantly pumping out books, articles, and videos. You must have a huge team to support you. You either that or you have a troubling meth problem. I don’t know. You’re just always producing amazing things. We’re really in awe of you.   [00:02:43] Dr. Michael Greger: That’s very sweet. I do indeed have this fantastic staff, not only 14 folks on staff in the non-profit Nutrition Facts, but we have about 200 active volunteers at any one time. We have this tremendous team of folks—all churning out wonderful life-changing, life-saving information. That’s what it’s all about.   [00:03:09] Ashley James: Absolutely. It’s quite controversial asking people to change their diet to reverse and prevent disease especially since the government puts out their recommendations. According to what they put out, that’s a disease-causing diet. There’s so much controversy. MDs are not trained in nutrition. You have to go above and beyond as an MD to learn how to heal with food. Can you tell us about what happened in your life that made you want to help people heal with food?   [00:03:41] Dr. Michael Greger: Sure. It was really all thanks to my grandmother. I was just a kid when the doctor sent my grandma home in the wheelchair to die. She was diagnosed with end-stage heart disease. She basically already had so many bypass operations. The surgeons basically run out of plumbing at some point, confined in the wheelchair, crushing chest pain, and her life was over at age 65. Pretty sure you’ve heard about this guy Nathan Pritikin, one of our early lifestyle medicine pioneers. What happened next is actually detailed in Pritikin’s biography. He talks about Frances Greger, my grandmother. They wheeled her in and she walked out. In fact, within a few weeks, she was walking 10 miles a day. Thanks to [inaudible 00:04:22] though she was given a medical death sentence at age 65, thanks to a healthy diet she went on to live another 31 years till age 96 to continue to enjoy her six grandkids including me. That’s why I went into medicine. That’s why I started nutritionfacts.org. That’s why I wrote the book How Not to Die and why 100% of the proceeds I get from all my books are donated to charity. I just want to do for everyone’s family what Pritikin did for my family.   [00:04:49] Ashley James: How do you make an income then if everything you do seems to fund amazing charities?   [00:04:54] Dr. Michael Greger: I’m on staff at nutritionfacts.org. I’m the Chief Science Officer. Those who make donations to the 501(c)(3) non-profit Nutrition Facts, they are helping me put kale on the table.   [00:05:14] Ashley James: I love it. Speaking of kale, you’ve mentioned kale as being one of your favorite superfoods, what other foods should we eat every day or at least every week and why?   [00:05:24] Dr. Michael Greger: That’s the second half of my book How Not to Die. The first half is just 15 chapters and each of the 15 leading causes of death talking about the role of diet. [Inaudible 00:05:32] preventing, resting, and reversing each of our top 15 killers, but I didn’t want it to just be a reference book. I wanted it to be a practical guide. I’m translating this mountain of data into day-to-day grocery store type decisions. To that end, the second half of the book centers around my recommendations wherein a daily dozen checklist of all the things that try to fit into my daily routine. For example, berries every day the healthiest types of fruits, greens every day the healthiest types of vegetables, 1 tablespoon of flaxseed, and ¼ teaspoon turmeric. The best beverages, best sweeteners, and how much exercise to get. Basically, just try to motivate people to include some of the healthiest of healthy foods into their daily diet.   [00:06:13] Ashley James: You discuss Blue Zones or at least we see that there’s so much information coming out of Blue Zones and there’s a controversy because some Blue Zones consume meat, there’s one that doesn’t. The one in Italy is all about olive oil. Apparently, olive oil is the cure and the best thing we could ever do. We don’t know what the driver is. We have to look at the similarities. Obviously, you pore through the science. You’re all about science-based nutrition. What is the commonality in all the Blue Zones that really make the difference that if we applied the same principles to our lifestyle and diet we would get the same result?   [00:06:51] Dr. Michael Greger: What they all share in common, again, Blue Zones are areas with the greatest long human longevity, the most centenarians per capita. For example, the people who live over 100 years old. What does every single one of them share in common? They eat a diet centered around whole plant foods and their primary source of protein is some form of legume: beans, split peas, chickpeas, or lentils. For example, the Okinawan Japanese, the second-longest living population in the world, it’s about a 97% plant-based diet. Actually, 70% of the calories of sweet potatoes, basically a vegetable centered diet. The only formally studied population that lives longer is the Seventh-day Adventist vegetarians in Loma Linda California. They live longer than anybody else, and they don’t eat any meat at all.   [00:07:45] Ashley James: I just heard a really troubling statistic. I was listening to a White House presentation this week about lowering the cost of insulin. I heard that one in three senior citizens are on insulin. That really disturbed me that the level of insulin use is that high. The level of type 2 diabetes continues to rise. Now there’s so much controversy because, in the mainstream sugar, carbs, and sweet potatoes would be the cause of insulin issues or needing insulin in diabetes, but you propose that a plant-centered diet would actually help to reverse diabetes. Can you explain why?   [00:08:26] Dr. Michael Greger: It’s not controversial in the medical literature. It’s just controversial in internet land where even the roundness of the earth is in question. But no, the science is very clear. Type-2 diabetes and pre-diabetes is caused by insulin resistance. Your body’s resistant to the effects of the insulin that your body produces. What’s that caused by? This is not controversial. If you look at the peer-reviewed medical literature, it’s caused by what is called an intramyocellular lipid. This is fat that’s stuck inside your muscle cells and inside the liver cells in the context of excess calories so it’s caused by fat. Now that can be fat in your mouth that’s going in your mouth, or it can be excess fat that’s on your body. Either way, we have high levels of free-floating fat in the bloodstream, which clogs up your muscle and liver cells, impairs their ability to respond to insulin, and you can end up with type 2 diabetes, which is the leading cause of adult-onset blindness, amputations, and kidney failure. It’s no good. Now, we have two pandemics colliding. A pandemic of obesity and diabetes colliding with an infectious disease pandemic. It’s important to realize that the underlying risk factors for COVID-19’s severity and death are obesity, high blood pressure, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes all of which can be controlled or even reversed with a healthy enough plant-based diet and lifestyle.   [00:09:59] Ashley James: What about this keto phenomenon? It used to be Atkins back in the day, right? Then it was paleo and now it’s keto. I think people like to think that they can reverse disease if they eat a bunch of meat and fat and avoid those really evil carbohydrates. People see really good results in the short-term with keto, but that’s increasing fat. According to what you just said, wouldn’t that increase insulin resistance and have poor outcomes in the long term?   [00:10:30] Dr. Michael Greger: Within the short-term, within days you increase insulin resistance with a ketogenic diet. In fact, the largest chapter in my book How Not to Diet I talk about the ketogenic diet. The data is very clear. People love hearing good news about their bad habits so any book that comes out and tells people to eat bacon and butter, obviously, are just going to sell better than those that come out and tell people to eat broccoli, but the science is very clear. In fact, switching to a ketogenic diet actually cuts the rate of fat loss in half after switching to a ketogenic diet because you’re actually cannibalizing your own protein, but you get the loss in water weight, which flushes out the ketones. Looking at the bathroom scale, the ketogenic diet seems like a smashing success, but what we care about is not a loss of water or protein. What we care about is the loss of body fat. Actually, body fat loss slows down. That’s why CrossFit trainees placed on a ketogenic diet, their leg muscles shrink as much as [80%] within 2 months. Exercise is supposed to make your muscles bigger, not smaller but that’s what happens when you’re on a ketogenic diet, not a good idea.   [00:11:56] Ashley James: Originally, the ketogenic diet was created to mimic fasting so that children with epilepsy could stay on it long term. What about fasting? There are so many health benefits to fasting being promoted out there. What are your thoughts on fasting and should we do it on a regular basis?   [00:12:12] Dr. Michael Greger: I talk about all types of fasting: alternate-day fasting, intermittent fasting, 55-2 fasting, 25-5 fasting, fasting-mimicking diet, and time-restricted feeding. Bottom line, there are benefits from early time-restricted feeding meaning narrowing your eating window 12 hours or less, but critically, that’s in the morning rather than the evening. If anything, you skip supper not breakfast. That has a variety of benefits both chrono biologically based on our circadian rhythms as well as metabolically. We talked about all the benefits. It’s really quite extraordinary. We should not be eating after sundown. I encourage people to fast after 7:00 PM and try to wait for their greatest caloric intake towards the beginning of the day.   [00:13:03] Ashley James: You have a book How to Survive a Pandemic, is it out already or are you still releasing it?   [00:13:09] Dr. Michael Greger: It is out as of Tuesday, May 26.   [00:13:13] Ashley James: Very cool. Tell us about How to Survive a Pandemic and why should we read it.   [00:13:18] Dr. Michael Greger: I try to cover everything there is to know to protect ourselves and our families from the coronavirus. Everything from optimal [inaudible 00:13:26] and hand hygiene, surface disinfection, masks, and how to make your own and hand sanitizer, but the best way to survive a pandemic is to prevent it in the first place. The bulk of the book actually centers around tracing the origins of the COVID coronavirus and what we can do to prevent even greater infectious disease threats in the future.   [00:13:45] Ashley James: Based on your research, because you love to look at the science and then decide what is the best route based on the results, you’re not choosing diet dogma. I think that doctors who like to share that a plant-based diet is healing for the body tend to get criticized because those who see that there’s look, there’s a study that says that this meat is healthier, this fish is healthier, this dairy is healthy, and then they like to discredit them. But you like to look at the science and the results and go and then share that and go listen, don’t listen to me listen to the results, listen to the science. But based on your research, is there a one diet fits all? If we put 100% of the population on one way of eating, would we be able to reverse all disease, or do there need to be certain tweaks? Let’s say, someone who’s a bodybuilder versus a 90-year-old grandmother versus someone with fatty liver disease, should they all be on slightly different diets based on their nutritional needs?   [00:14:46] Dr. Michael Greger: The good news is that we have a tremendous power of our health, destiny, and longevity. The vast majority of premature death and disability are preventable with a plant-based diet and other healthy lifestyle behaviors just like smoking is bad for everybody. It’s not some people that smoking is good for. Eating a healthy diet is good for everybody. There are things that are good for your body and bad for your body. Some people have allergies to a specific food. Are peanuts bad for you? If you have a peanut allergy, it could kill you, but otherwise no. The same kind of thing. The people that are lactose intolerant that would affect some people will have different caffeine metabolism rates, so coffee affects them a little differently. But it’s not like there are people out there where hotdogs are good for them or broccoli is bad for them.  If you go to truehealthinitiative.org, this is an initiative set forth by Yale’s Prevention Research Center which asks hundreds of the top nutrition scientists in the world to agree on a consensus statement as to what the healthiest diet is. Just like you want to know about climate change, you go to the IPCC. What do climate change scientists have to say, right? So the same thing. You can see that there’s a consensus as to the core tenants of healthy eating and living going back decades, and that is centering one’s diet around whole healthy plant foods.    [00:16:18] Ashley James: You have given many video talks and lessons on your website nutritionfacts.org, which one of all of them are you the most proud of?   [00:16:30] Dr. Michael Greger: Oh, wow. What a great question. Thousands of videos. If I can remember half of them that would be… Every time I put out a book I do a new talk, an hour-long presentation where I pick all the most akin of practical, groundbreaking, interesting bits together. Then it gives you this broad overview. Those are probably my favorite talks. I have one for How Not to Diet. I have one for How Not to Die. Those are probably the talks I’m most proud of. Though I yet have to have an hour-long presentation about How to Survive a Pandemic, but I do have about three hours’ worth of videos coming up—17 videos starting at the end of May running through July on nutritionfacts.org.   [00:17:36] Ashley James: We’ll look out for them for sure. As a doctor, as you’ve been taking your own initiative to study nutrition outside of school, because that’s what doctors have to do in order to really, really learn the truth, and as you’ve been helping people, what one story stands out for you? What healing story surprised you? Someone who actually healed their body that you were really surprised that they were able to heal using nutrition.   [00:18:05] Dr. Michael Greger: Those diseases for which we didn’t think that they were reversible. For example, we didn’t think heart disease was reversible until Pritikin came along and showed that was indeed the case. Diabetic retinopathy, diabetic blindness, we thought that was irreversible you go worse, worse, worse and you go blind. No, that can be reversed with a healthy diet. There are two case reports that just came out suggesting that, caught early enough, even type one diabetes may be able to help with a healthy diet. There was the first case report in enclosing spondylitis, this horrible autoimmune condition attacking the spine. Never had any data on that, but no, plant-based diet helps with that too. No surprise an anti-inflammatory diet helps an inflammatory condition. Those are the most exciting things, these kinds of reversal. We have new data on lupus, which is another autoimmune condition with beneficial effects not just for kidney function, which we had already known, but for other symptoms as well. Crohn’s disease, multiple sclerosis, these are just really exciting to see diseases for which there were no good options. Where the traditional approaches have such downsides in terms of adverse effects. That’s really the most exciting work out there.   [00:19:30] Ashley James: What question am I not asking that you would love to answer?   [00:19:34] Dr. Michael Greger: I don’t know. What’s nutrition facts? Nutrition facts is a free, non-profit, science-based public service providing daily updates in the latest nutritional research via bite-sized videos—more than 1000 videos. Nearly every aspect of healthy eating with new videos and articles uploaded every day—are the latest in evidence-based nutrition. What a concept—nutritionfacts.org.   [00:20:00] Ashley James: For those who are not used to the whole food plant-based diet but are intrigued, can you share what do you eat? What do you eat? What have you eaten in the last 24 hours? What do you eat? Maybe you could share a recipe, one of your favorite recipes that would get people excited about trying to eat more plants.   [00:20:22] Dr. Michael Greger: The daily dozen is what I eat. That’s the reason the Daily Dozen came around because I wanted to eat an evidence-based diet and so I’m just sharing that with everybody. In terms of what I eat in 24 hours, I had a big bowl of miso soup for lunch and some cherries. It’s cherry season and oh my god they’re delicious. Then this morning I had my prebiotic mix, which is a combination of oat groats, purple barley, rye berries, and Beluga lentils mixed with cocoa powder, dark sweet frozen cherries. It was kind of like choco berry cherry action with some nuts and seeds. That was delicious. What did I have last night? Last night I had these blue corn tortillas, which I toasted mixed with a fajita mix, which was onions, peppers, black beans, salsa, and some hummus to make it kind of creamy with some adobo sauce, and some smoked jalapeno peppers. It was nice and spicy. Threw a whole bunch of greens in there. A tortilla kind of action. In terms of what might be particularly motivating, I think it’s important to realize there’s only one diet ever proven to reverse heart disease in the majority of patients—it’s a plant-based diet. Anytime anyone tries to sell you on some new diet, do me a favor, just ask them a simple question. Wait a second, is this new diet improving to reverse heart disease, the number one reason me and all my loved ones will die? If the answer is no, why would you even consider it? If that’s all a plant-based diet could do—reverse the number one killer of men and women. Isn’t that going to be the default diet to be proven otherwise? In fact, that can also be so effective in preventing resting reversing other leading killers like high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes. It would seem to make the case for plant-based eating simply overwhelming.   [00:22:46] Ashley James: I love that you mentioned your app, Dr. Greger’s Daily Dozen. I have that on my phone. I think it’s a really cool app and I definitely recommend it. I’ve had Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn on the show. I just love, love that he so clearly says here’s the way to eat to reverse heart disease—being a cardiologist still practicing. I think he’s 86. I’m sure you guys are friends. But what’s really frustrating is I’ve had other cardiologists on the show who say we should drink a liter of olive oil a week, that it’s the most healthy thing we could possibly do for our heart. I’m really frustrated because when I learned the damages that oil can have on the body, can you just talk about is oil healthy, is it not healthy? How do we get healthy fats? Could we become fat-deprived by not eating fat? Can you just demystify fat and oil for us?   [00:23:37] Dr. Michael Greger: Oil is kind of the white sugar of the fat kingdom. You take something like a sugar beet, which is really healthy. You remove all the nutrition and you’re left with just sugar, so it’s empty calories. Same thing. You take a walnut, remove all the nutrition, you’re left with walnut oil, and it’s just empty calories. There are a few fat-soluble nutrients like vitamin E, but basically, just throw a lot of fiber, throw out the minerals, and throw out the rest of the nutrition. It’s like why would you do that? If you want to eat olive oil, fine, eat an olive. The problem is, there’s too much sodium in it, so eat an avocado, eat nuts and seeds, or eat whole food sources. How are we going to get carbohydrates? Whole plant food sources. How are we going to get proteins? Whole food plant source. How are we going to get fat? Whole food plant sources. Are these the healthiest? Not only because the stuff that doesn’t have cholesterol, saturated fat, and hormones—all that blah, blah, blah, blah. There are all the beneficial things that you want like antioxidants, fiber, and vital nutrients. There are some essential fats: omega 3s, omega 6s, but that’s one of the reasons I recommend people to eat a tablespoon of ground flax seeds today to get their alpha-lipoic acid and omega-3 fatty acid, which is important for protecting against cardiovascular disease.   [00:24:51] Ashley James: My dad died of obesity and heart disease, but he survived my mother who was seemingly healthier—died of cancer at age 55. That was the shocker in our family. She died very quickly of liver cancer because she was very healthy on the outside. We want to obviously probably prevent heart disease—being the number one killer. We obviously want to prevent infection. That’s the big focus right now. Many people are turning to comfort foods and alcohol to just get through this crazy time, which in turn is actually hurting them more. Cancer is one of those big things that looms over us, at least over me. Something even scarier than heart disease. What can we do to reverse cancer? If someone has cancer, what evidence-based nutrition should they do to reverse cancer?   [00:25:47] Dr. Michael Greger: After Dr. Dean Ornish conquered our number one killer, heart disease, he moved on to killer number two, cancer. Took a group of men with early-stage prostate cancer, put them on the same kind of diet that reversed heart disease. For the first time ever showed that diet and lifestyle intervention could reverse the progression of cancer as measured by PSA levels, which is a proxy for tumor volume. In the control group that was told to just eat whatever your doctor was telling you, the tumors continued to grow. Whereas in the group that was randomized to a plant-based diet and lifestyle program, the tumor shrank on average— first men ever shown. The nice thing about diet is regardless of what other choices you make in terms of whether you are doing radiotherapy or chemotherapy, you can always eat healthier.   [00:26:37] Ashley James: Very interesting. Should we limit the amount of nuts and seeds like the plant-based fats or could someone go eat as many peanuts, for example, as they want to? Even though it’s plant-based, is there a ratio of carbs to fat to protein that is optimal?   [00:26:56] Dr. Michael Greger: The most important thing is a source, not the quantity. As long as you’re getting your macronutrients from whole plant sources, that’s the most important thing. I mean the only way you could overeat nuts is if that’s all you ate. Obviously, that wouldn’t be a good thing. But I encourage people to eat an ounce of it a day. It’s like a palm-full of nuts. A critically important one of the few foods along with dark and leafy from vegetables associated with literally years of an extended lifespan.   [00:27:28] Ashley James: Peanuts are not nuts, they’re legumes, right?   [00:27:31] Dr. Michael Greger: That’s true but they’re nutritionally similar enough that they actually have the same type benefits. The downside is that when we expose nuts and seeds to high dry heat, it produces these advanced glycation end-products. When you expose high protein fat foods to high heats, you get these AGEs, which we want to minimize. That’s why I encourage people to eat their nuts and seeds raw, but you can’t really find raw peanut butter, for example. But you can find raw almond butter, so that would be a better choice.   [00:28:00] Ashley James: You can make your own if you have a Vitamix or something.   [00:28:03] Dr. Michael Greger: You can make your own, exactly.   [00:28:05] Ashley James: That was my question was the high heat or the roasted nuts. We just need to basically eat the raw ones to preserve healthy fats. My last question, because I know you have to go, autoimmune disease is on the rise. Some autoimmune conditions are exacerbated by nightshades and some grains. What do we do to help people with autoimmune disease to recover?   [00:28:28] Dr. Michael Greger: You put them on a whole food plant-based diet. The most powerful intervention that’s ever been published in the peer-reviewed medical literature for multiple sclerosis and autoimmune disease where you take your own nerves. The most powerful intervention for Crohn’s disease, an autoimmune inflammatory bowel disease. We now have data for benefits for ulcerative colitis, lupus ankylosing spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis. You name the autoimmune condition and the odds are, we have data supporting an anti-inflammatory diet, which is essentially synonymous with a plant-based diet. It’s true, there’s an autoimmune disease known as the celiac disease for which gluten can be an inflammatory trigger. For those rare 1 in 140 or so people, need to stay away from gluten-containing grains like wheat, barley, and rye, but those are healthy foods for the vast majority of people. People with joint pain, about 1 in 20, feel better after cutting nightshades out. So hey, might as well worth a try, but if it doesn’t help your joint pain, I would put those super healthy foods back into one’s diet.   [00:29:51] Ashley James: Awesome. Thank you so much, Dr. Greger, for coming on the show today. It has been such a pleasure to have you here. Leave us with some homework. Leave us with some actionable steps we can take today to improve our health.   [00:30:01] Dr. Michael Greger: Oh my God.

We are replaying one of the most popular shows for you this week!    * * *   We love sharing the real-life health journeys of our followers. This week Suzie was kind enough to share with you her family’s journey to health after a life-threatening heart condition in her newborn daughter, battling Postpartum PTSD, an endocrine disorder diagnosis for her young son, a celiac diagnosis for her young daughter with Down Syndrome, and a life-threatening blood pressure scare for her husband. All in a very short time span. Wow. You want to hear how this fearless and determined mother turned it all around holistically for herself, and her entire family, without breaking the bank or budget. Truly inspiring!   * * *   About Suzie Suzie is a vegan health coach and blogger as well as a volunteer Crisis Counselor with Crisis Text Line.  She owns a gluten free/vegan bakery just outside of Lansing, Michigan – Carly Cakes – and they operate under a mission to employ adults with developmental disabilities and pay them a living wage.   * * *   What Inspired My Journey? It was inspired by my youngest, who has Celiac.  So, she also has Down's Syndrome, and it was kind of wanting to find a way that she could be included in birthday treats and celebrations.    Family Health Issues Youngest daughter born with Down Syndrome and a life-threatening heart condition that required open heart surgery at 4 months old. After youngest was born Suzie experienced Postpartum PTSD and a Rheumatoid Arthritis flare. Son diagnosed with endocrine disorder. Daughter diagnosed with Celiac Disease. Husband hospitalized for extremely high blood pressure.   What Changes Did Suzie Make for Her Family? Before husband even got home from the hospital, I cleared out all the alcohol and high-salt foods from our house. But the doctors gave very little other direction for us to follow.  But I knew I needed to started cooking more.  And I didn’t totally understand what the best options for us were then, nutritionally, but looking back, I see that I still established that routine of daily cooking and meal prep, and we were able to cut-out fast food and restaurant meals.  I started doing daily yoga, first at home using Yoga by Adrienne free videos on YouTube, and then once I was comfortable enough, I found a studio and a gym. I also began heavily relying on Buddhist philosophy to unscramble the PTSD, which led me to a new understanding about the nature of suffering. So, the rest of the journey grew from my desire to reduce the pervasive suffering that I was putting out into the world and to free my mind from it.  The day I woke up and began a different life for our family, I didn’t wake up with any less depression or anxiety than I had the day before. I didn’t wake up with less swollen, or achy joints than I had the day before.  I didn’t wake up with more money, or less on my plate.  We were all extremely sick.  There was nothing good that changed to lead us in that direction.  Nothing about our situation really changed, but the way that I looked at it did.   It's A Process It really did come down to just baby steps. Like you know how everybody is into Marie Kondo and “The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up?” Well, I started “Marie Kondo-ing” my brain.  All our routines, everything that we ate, I would examine everything we did objectively.  So, my focus was progress not perfection, and those little daily choices led us to the point where we could start making big changes overall.   What Are Some Of The Changes Suzie Made In the Family Diet? Getting rid of soda was a huge one for me. I was a massive diet Coke drinker.  There was a day that I drank 24 cans of Diet Coke.  I knew that that was one of the ones that had to go right away. And then we started making the shift to sustainable living, and it was that environmental avenue that lead me to Veganism.  I watched a few vegan documentaries on Netflix, and from the reduce the suffering angle, I knew 100 percent that it was the next big step we needed to make.  There are unhealthy vegans, and I didn't want to end up in just a new way to be unhealthy. So, I really started researching the vegan diet for evidence-based improvements.  And through that, I found the Whole Foods Plant Based lifestyle. Eating Whole Foods Plant Based has been linked to a number of health benefits, including reducing and even reversing heart disease, certain cancers, obesity, diabetes and cognitive decline.  We do supplement our B-vitamins, but we also use a lot of a Nutritional Yeast so we get some in through our food. I also make sure the kids get plenty of fats for their developing brains, but they get it from things like avocado, or flax milk, so that they don’t have that saturated fat and hormones that dairy milk has.  Flax Milk actually is a better source of calcium, protein and omega-3 than dairy.  Cutting out processed foods also made it easier for our whole household to keep gluten at bay for my Celiac daughter, drastically cutting her risk of cross-contamination, improved her health dramatically. Her skin got better, her stomach bloat went away, and leading me to find that gluten was also making my Rheumatoid Arthritis worse, it was contributing to inflammation.  I started a daily routine of celery juice, amla, turmeric and ginger, that I toss everything in all together and drink it every morning, and I have never felt better.    What Was The Biggest Obstacle I Faced On My Journey? Everybody always asks me if it's about us getting protein. Broccoli has a higher protein per calorie ratio than steak.  Obviously, you have to eat a lot of broccoli to get that, but it still has a higher protein per calorie ratio than steak. And when you're eating nothing but a lot of different types of veggies and a lot of different types of nuts and grains, it's really easy to make it up. It was actually a lot easier getting the kids to adopt the changes than I expected it to be. My son was an incredibly picky eater.  But they adapted quite quickly because we created a whole routine around it, and they could help.  Even the youngest one could still find something to do, whether it was just helping prepare the salads. If there's no junk to really choose from in the cupboards, they aren't going to pick it. It's just not there.  If they have a choice between, "Okay, I have an apple or a banana," they still feel like they're making a decision.  Their  palates then changed over time, and now they prefer healthier foods, saying other foods, processed foods, when we go to a birthday or party or something, I do let them have whatever cupcakes are served, but they'll usually opt not to, saying that it's too sweet.   What About The Cost? Everyone thinks that it is so much more expensive to eat this way, but really, it's only buying the Organic/Gluten Free processed foods that carry that real heavy price tag. I feed our family of 6 a gluten free, vegan diet full of color and vitamins, 3 meals a day for about 100.00 a week.  And we were probably spending that on Starbucks, soda, beer and wine alone before the change.  The only real challenge is that it does require a lot of prep, whether meal planning, or prepping ahead of time   My Three Biggest Tips You don’t have to make a sudden shift. You don’t need to throw out everything processed in one go.  Just maybe the next time you go to pick up burger meat, don’t, and grill a portobello cap instead and see how you like it.  Instead of milk, try a plant-based alternative and then go from there.  I would also say turmeric and ginger. Add them to everything.   And drink a ton of water.  I drink over a gallon of water a day.  I even have one sitting right next to me right now.  And then, the very last one would be to Marie Kondo your brain. Don’t mindlessly snack, pause and reflect before you eat, consider what that food is bringing into your life.  If you don’t need what it has to offer, if you don't want that contributing to your overall wellbeing, then just thank it, and let it go.    Suzie’s Advice To Others I'd want them to know that there is no finish line on the path to wellness, the continued journey is the goal. So, you can't fail at this.  Obviously, someone could say, if you aren’t their perceived picture of healthy, then you failed, but you have to be able to give yourself some grace.  No one starts their journey to wellness in the same place.  We all have different experiences that have led us to where we are and have led us to different decisions. We were exposed to different food, and to different people.  So, if you take a look at me, and you look at Simone Biles, I'm not going to come close to *that* image of health ever in my life. But for where I started just a few short years ago, and for where I am now, the amount of change I have adapted to, I am doing quite well, substantially better than where I was when I started. Every day that you wake up and commit yourselves to being on a journey, you are changing. You are becoming. And if things are in a continual state of change, motion, and becoming, then there is never really an end. Every day presents a new opportunity to get better, to learn something new, to show compassion to ourselves, others, animals and our planet. And kind of like with that Marie Kondo-ing our brain, every second really is a new chance to make a new choice.   * * *   Deeper Dive Resources   Carly Cakes Instagram https://www.instagram.com/carlycakesgfv/   Carly Cakes Facebook https://www.facebook.com/carlycakesgfv/      Carly Cakes Website https://swskougard.wixsite.com/carlycakesgfv/about_us   Postpartum PTSD https://www.postpartum.net/learn-more/postpartum-post-traumatic-stress-disorder/ https://www.postpartumdepression.org/postpartum-depression/types/ptsd/ https://www.psychiatryadvisor.com/home/topics/anxiety/postpartum-ptsd-beyond-postpartum-depression-in-maternal-mental-health/   Crisis Text Line https://www.crisistextline.org/   Celiac Disease Foundation https://celiac.org/about-celiac-disease/what-is-celiac-disease/   Beyond Celiac https://www.beyondceliac.org/celiac-disease/   Down Syndrome https://www.ndss.org/about-down-syndrome/down-syndrome/ https://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/condition/down-syndrome   Pervasive Suffering https://studybuddhism.com/en/advanced-studies/lam-rim/the-five-aggregates/all-pervasive-suffering   Yoga with Adriene https://www.youtube.com/user/yogawithadriene   Marie Kondo https://konmari.com/   The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing https://amzn.to/2PQl2nO   Spark Joy: An Illustrated Master Class on the Art of Organizing and Tidying Up (The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up) https://amzn.to/2PSG1GJ   Whole-Foods Plant Based Diet https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/plant-based-diet-guide   https://www.forksoverknives.com/plant-based-primer-beginners-guide-starting-plant-based-diet/#gs.1cf0zj   How Not to Die by Dr. Michael Greger https://amzn.to/2ZY5wq4   Amla (Indian Gooseberry) https://www.organicfacts.net/health-benefits/fruit/indian-gooseberry-amla.html

We love sharing the real-life health journeys of our followers. This week Suzie was kind enough to share with you her family’s journey to health after a life-threatening heart condition in her newborn daughter, battling Postpartum PTSD, an endocrine disorder diagnosis for her young son, a celiac diagnosis for her young daughter with Down Syndrome, and a life-threatening blood pressure scare for her husband. All in a very short time span. Wow. You want to hear how this fearless and determined mother turned it all around holistically for herself, and her entire family, without breaking the bank or budget. Truly inspiring!   * * *   About Suzie Suzie is a vegan health coach and blogger as well as a volunteer Crisis Counselor with Crisis Text Line.  She owns a gluten free/vegan bakery just outside of Lansing, Michigan – Carly Cakes – and they operate under a mission to employ adults with developmental disabilities and pay them a living wage.   * * *   What Inspired My Journey? It was inspired by my youngest, who has Celiac.  So, she also has Down's Syndrome, and it was kind of wanting to find a way that she could be included in birthday treats and celebrations.    Family Health Issues Youngest daughter born with Down Syndrome and a life-threatening heart condition that required open heart surgery at 4 months old. After youngest was born Suzie experienced Postpartum PTSD and a Rheumatoid Arthritis flare. Son diagnosed with endocrine disorder. Daughter diagnosed with Celiac Disease. Husband hospitalized for extremely high blood pressure.   What Changes Did Suzie Make for Her Family? Before husband even got home from the hospital, I cleared out all the alcohol and high-salt foods from our house. But the doctors gave very little other direction for us to follow.  But I knew I needed to started cooking more.  And I didn’t totally understand what the best options for us were then, nutritionally, but looking back, I see that I still established that routine of daily cooking and meal prep, and we were able to cut-out fast food and restaurant meals.  I started doing daily yoga, first at home using Yoga by Adrienne free videos on YouTube, and then once I was comfortable enough, I found a studio and a gym. I also began heavily relying on Buddhist philosophy to unscramble the PTSD, which led me to a new understanding about the nature of suffering. So, the rest of the journey grew from my desire to reduce the pervasive suffering that I was putting out into the world and to free my mind from it.  The day I woke up and began a different life for our family, I didn’t wake up with any less depression or anxiety than I had the day before. I didn’t wake up with less swollen, or achy joints than I had the day before.  I didn’t wake up with more money, or less on my plate.  We were all extremely sick.  There was nothing good that changed to lead us in that direction.  Nothing about our situation really changed, but the way that I looked at it did.   It's A Process It really did come down to just baby steps. Like you know how everybody is into Marie Kondo and “The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up?” Well, I started “Marie Kondo-ing” my brain.  All our routines, everything that we ate, I would examine everything we did objectively.  So, my focus was progress not perfection, and those little daily choices led us to the point where we could start making big changes overall.   What Are Some Of The Changes Suzie Made In the Family Diet? Getting rid of soda was a huge one for me. I was a massive diet Coke drinker.  There was a day that I drank 24 cans of Diet Coke.  I knew that that was one of the ones that had to go right away. And then we started making the shift to sustainable living, and it was that environmental avenue that lead me to Veganism.  I watched a few vegan documentaries on Netflix, and from the reduce the suffering angle, I knew 100 percent that it was the next big step we needed to make.  There are unhealthy vegans, and I didn't want to end up in just a new way to be unhealthy. So, I really started researching the vegan diet for evidence-based improvements.  And through that, I found the Whole Foods Plant Based lifestyle. Eating Whole Foods Plant Based has been linked to a number of health benefits, including reducing and even reversing heart disease, certain cancers, obesity, diabetes and cognitive decline.  We do supplement our B-vitamins, but we also use a lot of a Nutritional Yeast so we get some in through our food. I also make sure the kids get plenty of fats for their developing brains, but they get it from things like avocado, or flax milk, so that they don’t have that saturated fat and hormones that dairy milk has.  Flax Milk actually is a better source of calcium, protein and omega-3 than dairy.  Cutting out processed foods also made it easier for our whole household to keep gluten at bay for my Celiac daughter, drastically cutting her risk of cross-contamination, improved her health dramatically. Her skin got better, her stomach bloat went away, and leading me to find that gluten was also making my Rheumatoid Arthritis worse, it was contributing to inflammation.  I started a daily routine of celery juice, amla, turmeric and ginger, that I toss everything in all together and drink it every morning, and I have never felt better.    What Was The Biggest Obstacle I Faced On My Journey? Everybody always asks me if it's about us getting protein. Broccoli has a higher protein per calorie ratio than steak.  Obviously, you have to eat a lot of broccoli to get that, but it still has a higher protein per calorie ratio than steak. And when you're eating nothing but a lot of different types of veggies and a lot of different types of nuts and grains, it's really easy to make it up. It was actually a lot easier getting the kids to adopt the changes than I expected it to be. My son was an incredibly picky eater.  But they adapted quite quickly because we created a whole routine around it, and they could help.  Even the youngest one could still find something to do, whether it was just helping prepare the salads. If there's no junk to really choose from in the cupboards, they aren't going to pick it. It's just not there.  If they have a choice between, "Okay, I have an apple or a banana," they still feel like they're making a decision.  Their  palates then changed over time, and now they prefer healthier foods, saying other foods, processed foods, when we go to a birthday or party or something, I do let them have whatever cupcakes are served, but they'll usually opt not to, saying that it's too sweet.   What About The Cost? Everyone thinks that it is so much more expensive to eat this way, but really, it's only buying the Organic/Gluten Free processed foods that carry that real heavy price tag. I feed our family of 6 a gluten free, vegan diet full of color and vitamins, 3 meals a day for about 100.00 a week.  And we were probably spending that on Starbucks, soda, beer and wine alone before the change.  The only real challenge is that it does require a lot of prep, whether meal planning, or prepping ahead of time   My Three Biggest Tips You don’t have to make a sudden shift. You don’t need to throw out everything processed in one go.  Just maybe the next time you go to pick up burger meat, don’t, and grill a portobello cap instead and see how you like it.  Instead of milk, try a plant-based alternative and then go from there.  I would also say turmeric and ginger. Add them to everything.   And drink a ton of water.  I drink over a gallon of water a day.  I even have one sitting right next to me right now.  And then, the very last one would be to Marie Kondo your brain. Don’t mindlessly snack, pause and reflect before you eat, consider what that food is bringing into your life.  If you don’t need what it has to offer, if you don't want that contributing to your overall wellbeing, then just thank it, and let it go.    Suzie’s Advice To Others I'd want them to know that there is no finish line on the path to wellness, the continued journey is the goal. So, you can't fail at this.  Obviously, someone could say, if you aren’t their perceived picture of healthy, then you failed, but you have to be able to give yourself some grace.  No one starts their journey to wellness in the same place.  We all have different experiences that have led us to where we are and have led us to different decisions. We were exposed to different food, and to different people.  So, if you take a look at me, and you look at Simone Biles, I'm not going to come close to *that* image of health ever in my life. But for where I started just a few short years ago, and for where I am now, the amount of change I have adapted to, I am doing quite well, substantially better than where I was when I started. Every day that you wake up and commit yourselves to being on a journey, you are changing. You are becoming. And if things are in a continual state of change, motion, and becoming, then there is never really an end. Every day presents a new opportunity to get better, to learn something new, to show compassion to ourselves, others, animals and our planet. And kind of like with that Marie Kondo-ing our brain, every second really is a new chance to make a new choice.   * * *   Deeper Dive Resources   Carly Cakes Instagram https://www.instagram.com/carlycakesgfv/   Carly Cakes Facebook https://www.facebook.com/carlycakesgfv/      Carly Cakes Website https://swskougard.wixsite.com/carlycakesgfv/about_us   Postpartum PTSD https://www.postpartum.net/learn-more/postpartum-post-traumatic-stress-disorder/ https://www.postpartumdepression.org/postpartum-depression/types/ptsd/ https://www.psychiatryadvisor.com/home/topics/anxiety/postpartum-ptsd-beyond-postpartum-depression-in-maternal-mental-health/   Crisis Text Line https://www.crisistextline.org/   Celiac Disease Foundation https://celiac.org/about-celiac-disease/what-is-celiac-disease/   Beyond Celiac https://www.beyondceliac.org/celiac-disease/   Down Syndrome https://www.ndss.org/about-down-syndrome/down-syndrome/ https://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/condition/down-syndrome   Pervasive Suffering https://studybuddhism.com/en/advanced-studies/lam-rim/the-five-aggregates/all-pervasive-suffering   Yoga with Adriene https://www.youtube.com/user/yogawithadriene   Marie Kondo https://konmari.com/   The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing https://amzn.to/2PQl2nO   Spark Joy: An Illustrated Master Class on the Art of Organizing and Tidying Up (The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up) https://amzn.to/2PSG1GJ   Whole-Foods Plant Based Diet https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/plant-based-diet-guide   https://www.forksoverknives.com/plant-based-primer-beginners-guide-starting-plant-based-diet/#gs.1cf0zj   How Not to Die by Dr. Michael Greger https://amzn.to/2ZY5wq4   Amla (Indian Gooseberry) https://www.organicfacts.net/health-benefits/fruit/indian-gooseberry-amla.html

Ian Cramer, a competitive cyclist, is passionate about spreading the message that diet and lifestyle dramatically affect individual health as well as the health of the planet. For Ian, this reality speaks of encouragement. He motivates others and is motivated himself, by the simple yet challenging concept that maintaining good health and peak performance involve making good choices. Likewise, chronic disease may be reversed or prevented when these good choices, that are easily and economically available, become the norm everyday.   Ian is an allied health care professional with degrees in Kinesiology and athletic training. Beyond his day job, he's a public lecturer and produces an interview-based podcast. Driven by knowledge, evidence and civil discourse, he created The Ian Cramer Podcast. With a mission to interview doctors and scholars of lifestyle medicine and plant-based nutrition, Ian's unwavering focus in his podcast is to learn more, disseminate this information to a larger audience, educate lay-people and the medical community and change the world by leading in positive and responsible ways.     In June 2015, he and a group of three friends from Ohio rode their bikes across the country in what's known as The Race Across America. Supported by a full crew, Team Oxford Autoimmune completed the 3200-mile journey in 7 days 16 hours and 27 minutes. For Ian, the estimated 6000 miles of training and racing for the event were all done on a plant-based diet. He continues to race and ride recreationally in Rochester, New York.

{Radio segment} The difference a whole foods plant based diet makes on Brandi's principles. by Health, Fitness and Nutrition

Think of last time you visited a primary care doctor and the reasons why you made that trip to his or her office – perhaps it had to do with a sore throat that only worsened or a pain in your body that grew or maybe something else. Whatever the reason may have been, the […] The post TPP 014: Mauricio Gonzalez – Science Behind The Whole Foods Plant-Based Diet appeared first on The Plantiful.

This weeks guest Paul Blackwell who lives in SE Pennsylvania. Paul said that he was always skinny and was even called “sting bean” when he was younger. He discovered however at the age of 33 that despite looking fit, he had 90% blockage in his heart, and had to have 5 stents put in. Within the last year he was told that he was going to need to have bypass surgery and while he was being prepped for surgery he thought to himself, “there has got to be a different way.” Since then he has adopted a Whole Foods Plant Based diet, is feeling better than ever, and has also lost 40lbs in the whole process. We have a great conversation and I hope that you enjoy it!

On today's show we have Dr. Cyrus Khambatta and Robby Barbaro. These guys are two significant forces in the world of diabetes nutrition. You might be familiar with Cyrus through his work under the Mangoman Nutrition moniker, and Robby, aka Mindful Diabetic Robby, is known for his super popular Instagram account and Youtube channel. Together they've created 'Mastering Diabetes', which is a philosophy and program designed to help anyone with diabetes reduce insulin resistance and improve their blood glucose levels through a whole foods, plant-based diet.  We start off our conversation covering both of their diagnosis stories, as well as Cyrus's diagnosis with not just one, but three autoimmune conditions within a six month timeframe. Cyrus shares the emotional rollercoaster he was on during that time and how he transitioned to a plant-based diet. Robby also discusses his diagnosis as a pre-teen, and his transition to a 100% fruit-based diet. When we think about how we're encouraged to eat when we have diabetes, the most common suggestions center around a high protein/ low-carb diet. Based on what Cyrus and Robby tell us in this interview, that particular way of eating might in fact work against us if we're trying to either reverse type 2 or better manage type 1. The core reason, they say, is insulin resistance from fat that builds in our bodies over time. Their answer equates to a higher carbohydrate/ low-fat, plant based diet, and throughout this interview, Cyrus and Robby address misconceptions associated with their approach What's important about Cyrus and Robby's philosophy is that they not only present anecdotal evidence from their own experimenting, they also focus heavily on the scientific literature to formulate the recommendations they put out into the world. While they admit their approach to diabetes management through a plant-based diet may run counter to popular thinking, they point to the quantitative outcomes they achieve, as well as what their clients experience, including reduced blood-glucose levels and reduced injected insulin needs. Hold tight because we take this conversation through a solid amount of science (Cyrus is a PhD from UC Berkeley) but both Cyrus and Robby keep the information completely understandable. Even if you are not ready to jump on the whole foods, plant-based diet train, I'm sure this conversation will open your mind a little more to consider the research and science behind it all.  Music Credits for BRAVEST Episode 003 Intro music - Poddington Bear, 'Sepia' & The Passion HiFi, 'Sweet Revenge' Outtro music - Joakim Karud, 'That Day'

Talkin about all the health things I've learned in the past few months.  1. Love eating high carb, low fat plant foods more than previous low carb, high fat meat diets.  2. The need to add fish oil to a low fat diet for depression issues. 3. Genetic testing analysis revealing obesity, depression, and other factors. 4. Healed my long-standing acid reflux & diarrhea/gut problems using plant food, and not listening to the GI doctor who prescribed meds and unnecessary procedures. http://deepaknair.com

If you've wondered why we're getting sicker and unhealthier, despite the latest in medicine, pharmaceuticals, nutracueticals, DNA testing, diets and supplements, then do we have the show for you! Today we'll be talking With T. Colin Campbell, PhD Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell University and coauthor of the bestselling book, The China Study and his latest book WHOLE. His legacy, the China-Cornell-Oxford Project, has been acknowledged as the most comprehensive study of health and nutrition ever conducted. He's also authored more than 300 peer-reviewed research papers. Today I want to talk about why the emperor has no clothes, or why the studies, the science, and the medicine we've come to love and trust, may not be quite what we think they are, especially when it comes to nutrition. But then I want to empower us, and talk about what works, why, and what we can do to live happier, healthier, and quite possibly long lives, and even return to perfect health, despite having disease, or even the Big C. Plus we'll talk about apples, dairy farms, peanuts, and what in the world four blind men and an elephant have to do with anything. Questions and Topics Include: Why protein may not be what we think it is. What peanuts have to do with protein and liver cancer. Why families in the Philippines who had ‘adequate' protein were the ones more likely to get cancer How protein was acting as a catalyst for cancer How he T Colin Campbell spent 27 years researching how protein causes cancer Why ‘getting enough protein' is a myth Why ‘high quality' protein can turn on cancer cells faster. Are there any studies that show protein deficiency? Why the more protein we get in, the less nutrition we have in our diet.  What is wholism? (Vegan & Vegetarian) Why T Colin Campbell wrote Whole Why separating the vitamins from the plant doesn't work Why vitamin E supplements have been shown to cause cancer Why biological complexity cannot be overemphasized (and what that really means) Why there's no such thing as a side-effect with medicine, only effects Why the #1 cause of death is nutritional ignorance Why health is NOT all about our genes What the statistics say on the war on cancer? Why according to T. Colin Campbell, most professionals would say the war on cancer has largely failed. Why ‘targeted drug therapy' is wrong Two films to check out, Fork over Knives and “Plant Pure Nation” (Vegan & Vegetarian) What is ‘The China Study' and what does it mean for us today. Why protein causes chemistry in rats. What allowed T. Colin Campbell to take a big picture approach and see the importance of Nature What the results of the China Study were Why cholesterol levels were so incredibly low Why there was no heart disease in many populations What is a Whole Foods Plant Based diet? What does it include and exclude? Why you don't want to eat white rice Why you don't want to eat vegetable oil Why supplements aren't as healthy as we thought they were Why mineral supplements may not be necessary, but may be a good hedge against depleted soil. What would T Colin Campbell say to a friend diagnosed with cancer? What is a study that T. Colin Campbell is looking for funding for? What is the Plant Based Nutrition Program? Why the USDA guidelines are seriously flawed How do you implement a Whole Foods Plant based dietin your home and for kids Why you may want to check out The Plant Pure Nation Cookbook and China Study Cookbook How we recover taste buds with Whole Foods T Colin Campbell, Author The China Study & One of the Most Prolific Nutrition Researchers Reveals Key Nutrition Diet Concerns We All Need to Know to Keep Us Healthy & Reverse Disease!
