A doctor was able to stop crippling gout that haunted him for years within a matter of weeks. The painful flare-ups vanished quickly and never returned. What changed for Dr. Richard Schmidt?

Is A Vegan Diet Always Health? | Dr. Hana Kahleova

Is A Vegan Diet Always Health? | Dr. Hana Kahleova
Is a vegan diet always healthy? It appears that even with ultra-processed plant-based foods there are substantial health benefits. The results of an analysis comparing a vegan diet containing "junk food" indulgences and a standard diet containing meat and dairy are examined by Hana Kahleova, MD, PhD, who co-authored the study. After analyzing the results of nearly 250 study participants, she joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast with the surprising findings. About The Study The analysis assessed the association of a plant-based diet index (PDI), healthful plant-based diet index (hPDI), and unhealthful plant-based diet index (uPDI) with weight loss. The PDI measures adherence to a plant-based diet in general, the hPDI includes more fruits, vegetables, grains, and beans, and the uPDI includes more foods such as refined grains and fruit juices. The findings are from a secondary analysis of a Physicians Committee study in which 244 overweight adults were randomly assigned to a vegan group that followed a low-fat vegan diet or a control group that made no diet changes for 16 weeks. Calorie intake was not limited for either group, and neither group was given diet quality instructions. — — STUDIES — — Vegan Diet Quality Study — — EVENTS — — What: The Power Foods Revolution Where: Washington, DC - The National Press Club Date: March 26, 2024 Time: 7:00pm Who: Dr. Neal Barnard, Chuck Carroll, Dustin Harder, Stefanie Ignoffo Tickets: — — BECOME AN EXAM ROOM VIP — — - Exclusive early access to select interviews - Pre-sale opportunities for live event tickets - Exclusive live online events VIP sign up: — — FOLLOW US — — The Exam Room Podcast Instagram: — — — Chuck Carroll Instagram: X: Facebook: — — — Physicians Committee Instagram: Facebook: X: — — — 5-Star Success: Share Your Story Apple: Spotify: — — — Share the Show Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or many other podcast providers.

Bob Madison no longer struggles with high cholesterol, has drastically improved diabetes, and eradicated the nerve pain that was destroying his life. Within a month he no longer needed insulin and was able to dramatically reduce other medications. Bob also lost well over 50 pounds and went from relying on a walker to walking over five miles in nature. He is a new man hoping to inspire others make the same changes he did so they can overcome their own significant health challenges no matter how old they are. The military veteran has one message: “If I can coach myself to better health at 73, I can coach others to do the same!” Bob joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to share his incredible story on The Exam Room Podcast. — — FOOD POLL: WHAT CAN’T YOU STOP EATING? — — Vote: — — BECOME AN EXAM ROOM VIP — — - Exclusive early access to select interviews - Pre-sale opportunities for live event tickets - Exclusive live online events VIP sign up: — — FOLLOW US — — Bob Madison Website: — — — Chuck Carroll Instagram: X: Facebook: — — — Physicians Committee Instagram: Facebook: X: — — — 5-Star Success: Share Your Story Apple: Spotify: — — — Share the Show Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or many other podcast providers.
