“With all the episodes now available, I have no shortage of interesting experts and/or success stories to listen to while I’m taking my daily exercise walk.
I have been plant based for about 7 years. My journey started when I first saw FOK.
I will be 80 years old next July (2023). I’m a retired M.D. Radiologist who graduated medical school in 1969 and completed a two-year Cardiovascular Radiology Fellowship, as well as an Internal Medicine internship (back when they still had them), and then worked in out-patient settings for 40 more years while raising 4 children.
What I noticed over those 40 years was how obesity and so many chronic diseases and cancer, as well as heart disease, were becoming more and more common. Diseases I rarely or never saw in medical school and post-graduate years were becoming more and more common. And everybody was getting fat!!!
My husband was choosing what to watch on TV one night, and he picked Fed Up, which led to Forks Over Knives. It was a Eureka moment! That was the answer: The Standard American Diet. We began our journey into becoming plantstrong, and it continues to this day. My husband and I are active and on no Rx meds. Both of us have signs of coronary artery disease, he with a 65-80% focal narrowing in the LAD, for which we refused an emergency stent because he was asymptomatic, and me with a calcium score of about 367 with calcification of all three coronary arteries. I am also asymptomatic. I’m in a conditioning class every Friday morning with my granddaughter and about 8 guys in their 40’s-50’s. I found a Primary Care Physician in our area, Board Certified in Lifestyle Medicine, and we see her once a year. It looks like my husband and I will have a nice long retirement together.”

“Have really enjoyed the last 2 episodes. I would love to be the subject of monitoring. Lectin and histamine allergies make deciding what to eat and enjoyable very difficult for me. What would be alternatives? 65, overweight and need this podcast!”

“My journey started 2 1/2 years ago with a WFPB way of eating. I still am not perfect but am up to challenging myself with this 7 day challenge in hopes to reset my pallet and jumpstart me on the cleanest eating possible for the long term. I went off track and have eaten foods with oils and have...”Read full review »
