“4 years ago after many beautifully motivating factors, I transitioned into a whole food plant based lifestyle. I was only 8 weeks pregnant with my only daughter at the time (4 brothers ahead of her) and did not at the start of it ever expect that going vegan was the soul factor that saved both my daughter and my life.
I felt amazing during her pregnancy even while covid started raining down months before she was due in late May 2020. However things took a turn in early March of 2020 when doctors discovered that my daughters placenta had died early (a undiagnosed condition all my pregnancies dabbled with in later stages of my boys pregnancies, never this early or this dire)
My daughter was dying.
I was told in the hospital that I needed to strictly focus on eating as many fruits and veggies I could while on bed rest there while we fought to save her life. The same nurse that gave me that instruction paused and said “I know that’s near impossible with hospital food but please try”
That’s when I told her that I had been plant based nearly her whole pregnancy. She looked me straight in the eye and told me “You may have single handedly saved your own daughters life with that”
I still get Chills.
Long story short, with many other amazing stories in-between, I was then diagnosed with a devestating blood clotting disorder that could kill me and any pregnancy at any moment. My daughter had to be taken out by emergency c-section which nearly killed me. She was a whopping 3lbs but came out a fighter! Never needing oxygen or anything other then a few weeks in the NICU to get her body fat up.
My whole food plant based lifestyle from that point on became far more of a passion to me as I dug further in my education in it and getting my IQ up on this fabulous podcast has been a true JOY in my life! I’ve been a follower for years and it never leaves me feeling less educated or motivated to continue listening and living this lifestyle.
My blood disorder is one that comes with no cure. HOWEVER my blood panels keep coming back normal with zero signs of the condition each test, which leave my doctors and I stunned. I attribute it to my plant-based lifestyle. I will never regrets my decision 4 years ago to be a whole food plant based warrior! It truly is the key to LIVE!
Bonus I’m 60lbs down and have maintained it for 3 years 💪🏼
My daughter is now nearly 4 years old and as sassy as they come, bossing her 4 big brothers around. She is the biggest broccoli lover there ever was!
Thank you for this incredible podcast
I’d love to share my story here if you ever come across my review! Plenty more to that incredible story and others I hold dear to my still beating heart.”

“You missed the boat with this one—you never addressed the serious questions many of us have re how effective is the flu shot? how quickly does the vaccine mutate? why should a healthy person who eats plant based ever get vaccinated? How do we know which virus is targeted and which is missed?...”Read full review »

“I host Plant-Powered Radio podcast and still believe this is the best vegan podcast out there. PCRM is the authority on plant-based nutrition and Chuck Carroll is a great host! I listen to every episode and take notes.”
