Plant-Based Diet Transition Tips to Empower Your Health Journey: Panel Discussion

Saison 2 · Épisode 10

mercredi 9 mars 2022 • Durée 44:58

“Don’t worry so much about what you don’t know. Just step into it and try it.” ~ Kathy Davis

For some people, going plant-based can be intimidating. There are so many unknowns: Does it require shopping at special stores? Subsisting on mock meats and cheeses? Spending countless hours trying recipes that may or may not taste good?

Cyd Notter, Kathy Davis and Chuck Carroll agree that the answer is a resounding NO.

In fact, they can all say from experience that going plant-based was much easier than they expected—and it’s led to other positive changes in their lives, including better health and more confidence. So much so that Chuck calls the plant-based lifestyle “Life 2.0.”

Giving Patients Power Over Their Health with Plant-Based TeleHealth

Saison 2 · Épisode 9

mercredi 2 mars 2022 • Durée 46:24

“What ends up happening is the patient is now in charge of their health.” ~ Dr. Niki Davis

Traditional medicine addresses chronic disease with pills and procedures that control symptoms or attempt to fix damage that’s already been done.

Plant-Based TeleHealth takes a different approach: lifestyle medicine that uses a plant-based diet and personalized care to get to the root of diseases and help patients heal.

That’s what attracted Dr. Kim Scheuer, Dr. Niki Davis, Dr. Colin Zhu and Dr. Chris Miller to this unique new practice that serves patients across the U.S. They wanted to stop “putting band-aids” on patients’ problems, go beyond what they were able to do in traditional practice and start giving patients the time and attention they needed to get better—for good.

Through Plant-Based TeleHealth, these doctors and their colleagues are able to help patients reduce their medications and improve their health. The patients get less of what they don’t want (more pills) and more of what they do want (freedom from symptoms and disease).

Episode Highlights

- How taking a holistic look at the whole person instead of just their symptoms changes the way medicine is practiced and enables a lifestyle approach

Dr. T. Colin Campbell: Keeping Plant-Based Nutrition Whole for Optimal Health

Saison 1 · Épisode 45

mercredi 22 septembre 2021 • Durée 49:14

What if we could break the cycle of disease and premature death just by changing what we eat? Dr. T. Colin Campbell believes it really is that simple.

After decades of studying nutrition's effects on health and disease, Dr. Campbell is convinced that eating plants in as close to their whole, unrefined forms as possible is the best thing we can do to support optimal health.

In fact, he's the one who coined the term "whole food plant-based diet!"

Since first discovering the correlations between plant-based diets and disease reduction, Dr. Campbell has written several books, inclding The China Study, Whole and The Future of Nutrition. He has also appeared in several documentary films, including Forks Over Knives, Eating You Alive, Food Matters, and PlantPure Nation and has delivered hundreds of evidence-based nutrition lectures around the world.

In the final episode of Season 1 of The Modern Health Nerd Podcast, we discuss:

How the common reductionist approach in nutrition and healthcare supports a system designed to make money instead of create health

How the current food system negatively impacts health, vulnerable populations and the environment

The research that changed Dr. Campbell's mind about animal protein's role in health

Dr. Campell's thoughts on the growth of the plant-based and alternative protein movement

Why eating whole, unrefined plant foods is more powerful than focusing on single nutrients

Why a holistic view is important when interpreting nutrition research results

Why policy change, particularly relating to dietary guidelines, is necessary to shift the food system toward one that supports health

The need for better public nutrition knowledge and civil debates between proponents of differing opinions

mercredi 14 juillet 2021 • Durée 44:02

Why haven't consumers started adopting healthier eating habits despite all the "better-for-you" options on the market? Jack Bobo would say it's because companies don't understand how consumers think—and are turning them off with the wrong messaging.

Jack is the author of Why Smart People Make Bad Food Choices, which exposes the not-so-obvious but real drivers of our complicated relationship to the foods we eat and why it’s proven so hard to change our habits. In this episode, we dive into:

The disconnect between plant-based messaging and target consumers

Types of messaging that can create personal and ethical conflicts in consumers' minds

Why combative messaging isn't the way to move the food system in a positive direction

How to avoid opposition and backlash resulting from inappropriate messaging or positioning

Causes of the dramatic shift in American health over the last 50 years

Why future growth projections for alternative protein may not indicate a reduction in meat consumption

How dietary guidelines regarding ultra-processed foods may undermine the work of the alternative protein movement

The psychology behind bad food choices

The importance of conveying the appropriate use case for alternative proteins

Scaling messaging as audiences change from the startup phase through growth

What alternative protein startups can learn from Big Food

...and a lot more! Jack looks at the food system from a unique angle and has some true gems to share for anyone who's trying to market a food product—or change their own eating habits.
