How Going Vegan For 15 Days Can Change Your Health!

06/23/20 • 51 min

The Exam Room by the Physicians Committee

What can going vegan for 15 days do for your health? Amazing things!

Dr. Ted Barnett, also known as “Dr. Veggie,” joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam RoomTM podcast to talk about the dramatic improvements he’s seen in patients after little more than two weeks. Following a lifetime of high cholesterol, Dr. Barnett says his patients experience a 50-point drop on average. Others who have struggled with their weight will see the scale finally head in the right direction and keep on going! Others with diabetes can also see dramatic improvements with their blood sugar, and that’s just the start.

The high-tech doctor with low-tech solutions also shares some of the biggest successes he’s witnessed among those who have taken part in his 15-day whole food plant-based jumpstart at the Rochester Lifestyle Medicine Institute. He will be speaking at the upcoming International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine.

Chuck is also joined by Josh LaJaunie who once weighed 420 pounds before devoting himself to a more healthy lifestyle. The result? He wound up on the cover of Runner’s World magazine! Josh shares his secrets to transforming into a seasoned marathon runner and also how he’s inspired his family to follow in his footsteps. Collectively, they have now lost a half-ton!

Plus, Dr. Neal Barnard pops the top on the myth of diet soda and weight loss!

Family Loses 250 Pounds After Going Vegan!

The Ignoffo family lost 250 pounds together after they began eating a vegan diet!

On this episode of The Exam RoomTM podcast, Stefanie Ignoffo joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to talk about their unbelievable plant-powered transformation. At one point in her life, Stefanie could barely climb a flight of stairs and thought she would need a walker just to get around the family’s home. Today, she can’t wait to hop on her bike and pedal for miles with her husband and three children who have also experienced remarkable health turnarounds.

Stefanie has parlayed her love of plants and newfound health into a career helping others through her non-profit, Plantspiration. She is also a certified Food For Life instructor.

Dr. Vanita Rahman also joins the show to discuss food addiction and answer listener questions about weight loss!

Eating As If the World Depended On It

Now more than ever we should be eating as if the world depended on it, because it does.

On this episode of The Exam RoomTM podcast, Dr. David Katz, a preventative medicine specialist and author of How To Eat, joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to weigh the magnitude of our food choices on everything from the environment to the current COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Katz also shares his opinion on how differently the global pandemic would be playing out if doctors focused more on food and lifestyle rather than just treating the symptoms of chronic conditions. He and Chuck then discuss his time working in an overflowing New York City hospital during the height of the pandemic.

Dr. Katz will be a featured speaker at the upcoming International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine.

Plus, Dr. Neal Barnard talks about how your blood type can impact your risk of COVID-19. Should you change your eating habits if your blood is Type A rather than Type O?

Also, Dr. Jim Loomis teams up with Dr. Barnard to answer your health and nutrition questions!
