Most accurate and concise
I am well educated on most of their topics and have caught almost no errors! (Significantly different from about 20 other podcasts I’ve heard). And Dr Furman’s explanations are deeper, more relevant, yet short vs the competition. I’m impressed with how UTD and erudite he is. Caveats: he’s pure vegetarian which is not as healthy as a mostly plant diet with well sourced cheese/yogurt/dairy, meat, liver, eggs in small amounts for balance. He lacks prioritization or benefit:effort advice (as do nearly all as it’s hard to calculate). Most listeners can’t adapt all the way so which changes are most worthwhile to start with and then do next? As do all of us, he generalizes in areas where specific knowledge is lacking. I don’t think we should fear micro toxins in our food as much nor get much organic food as he does. But do absolutely avoid any ground grain product like flour because food addiction and malnutrition is anchored or rooted in the grain family and some seed oils. Worthwhile shortcuts as pill supplements: Vitamins D and maybe K2. Magnesium, maybe zinc, iodine (and iron for women) chromium all can help as pills taken at mealtime. DHA and EPA in capsules. N-AcetylCysteine (NAC) 600 mg twice daily during flu season for sure and maybe always. These are the supplements I recommended to most of my patients. Learn about Vitamin D. Deficiency is very common and life threatening. The medical world will trivialize and misinform you about it. Vitamin D is an anabolic hormone that our bodies want to make for us. Going low is like castration or menopause to your immune system. We learned recently that those with Vitamin D deficiency struggle even to fight off a simple virus like Covid 19! (Reliable studies worldwide show you are at least 5-10 times more likely to die from Covid if D deficient). Your sickness and risk is worse if you also have fatty liver. I also recommend 250 mg Mg daily or more for everyone. Might help, can’t hurt, very cheap.

Dr Fuhrman, I would love for you to come and visit South Africa where your help is desperately needed. We have Prof Tim Noakes, a medical doctor who has unfortunately sold our country on low carb diets. In South Africa you are not so well known, I was lucky enough to be gifted your audiobook of ...Read full review »

I've only listened to the episode "toxic hunger", and I'm extremely disturbed. This episode basically calls eating a disorder. This is what women have lived with forever and only now are we finally breaking out of these messages we were raised with to be socially "allowed"...Read full review »
