One Twin Goes Vegan, One Does Not: 8 Weeks, Big Results | Dr. Christopher Gardner 09/12/2024

One Twin Goes Vegan, One Does Not: 8 Weeks, Big Results | Dr. Christopher Gardner The premise: 22 sets of healthy twins are put to the test. One identical twin begins to eat an entirely plant-based diet while their sibling eats a meaty omnivorous diet. While 70% of the diets were identical, 30% of the omnivorous diet was comprised of meat and other animal foods. It would be that 30% that proved the difference maker in terms of the cardiometabolic health of the twins. In just eight weeks the changes were nothing short of astounding. On average, the twin eating the plant-based diet lost an additional four pounds, lowered their LDL ("bad") cholesterol by 15 points, and experienced a 20 percent improvement in fasting insulin compared to their meat eating sibling. Go inside the remarkable study that was the basis for the hit Netflix documentary You Are What You Eat. Nutrition scientist and Stanford professor Christopher Gardner, PhD, is one of the lead researchers of the study. He outlines the findings and takes you behind the scenes of the documentary when he joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast. Topics Discussed - Telomeres lengthening with plant-base diet - Genetics, biological clocks, and aging - Cholesterol effects on twins - Challenges of the study - Responding to criticism - And more This episode was recorded at the International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine in Washington, D.C. — — SHOW LINKS — — Vegan Twin Study — — — You Are What You Eat Netflix: — — — Dr. Christopher Gardner Instagram: X: — — EVENTS — — Charlottesville VegFest Where: Charlottesville, VA Date: September 15 Tickets: — — — Wellness Weekend Where: Davis, WV Date: September 27-28 Tickets: — — — Power Foods Revolution Tour Where: New York City Date: October 5 Tickets: — — BECOME AN EXAM ROOM VIP — — Sign up: — — THIS IS US — — The Exam Room Podcast Instagram: — — — Chuck Carroll Instagram: Facebook: X: — — — Physicians Committee Instagram: Facebook: X: YouTube: Jobs: — — SUBSCRIBE & SHARE — — 5-Star Success: Share Your Story Apple: Spotify: Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or many other podcast providers.
