Description
Ever wondered where to find iron, calcium, and protein on a plant-based diet? In episode 12 I spoke with nutritionist, and Board-Certified Lifestyle Medicine Professional, Rohini Bajekal (MA Oxon, MSc Nutrition and Food Sciences, Dip IBLM) to answer questions just like that. Some of highlights of our conversation included Rohini's journey to plant-based nutrition, why she doesn't recommend animal products as part of a healthy diet, why and how plant-based nutrition can be helpful for a range of health conditions, plant-based sources of iron, calcium, and protein, what a healthy, whole-food, plant-based diet looks like, easy switches and health upgrades, women's health, and Rohini's father's journey (Dr Rajiv Bajekal): reversing type two diabetes with a plant-based diet, Follow Rohini: https://rohinibajekal.com/ If you'd like to support the podcast I'd love if you'd like to share this with a friend, leave a review on Apple podcasts, or follow me on Spotify.
