She has been featured in many widely distributed documentaries, including Processed People and Making a Killing and Forks Over Knives, which played in major theaters throughout North America in 2011. She is one of the co-authors of the companion book which was on the New York Times bestseller list for 66 weeks. Her most recent book is Food Over Medicine: The Conversation That Can Save Your Life.

About Gary

Gary Yourofsky is back and, though he might not need any introduction to most people, we are delving into his story for those who may have not encountered him b before, as he was away for ten years to reset and take care of himself from the pressure of activism and fighting against animals cruelty. But he is back, because the animals need him.

Gary Yourofsky is an American animal rights activist, lecturer, and educator best known for his viral 2010 speech, "The Most Important Speech You Will Ever Hear," which significantly influenced modern veganism. He founded the organization ADAPTT, and his activism has included direct action, like a 1997 raid on a Canadian fur farm, and extensive public speaking tours. After a decade away from public speaking, he has recently returned to advocate for animal sanctuaries.

About Justin

Like plenty of other entrepreneurs, Justin started his company because "He had to"

He had specific problems that he needed to solve and the market failed him with conflicting info leading to failure! By age 15 he was getting nutrition advice from all the mainstream “muscle magazines.” He was lifting weights for 2 hours per day and was addicted to caffeine and ephedrine pills. His unhealthy obsession with his physique haunted him into adulthood and consumed him throughout all of his early twenties. I can so related to that!

17 years later, he is here to help people avoid all of the horrible obstacles and pitfalls that he encountered on his personal journey. Justin is a Certified Nutritional Therapist, Specialist in Sports Nutrition, and Specialist in Fitness Nutrition. He studied nutrition and fitness and has helped over 2,500+ people transform their lives through one-on-one Lifestyle Coaching.

In the process, Justin also developed superfoods and nutritional support to get healthy and to boost performance with his company: Clovis https://iamclovis.com

About Dr Northrop

Christiane Northrup, M.D. , visionary pioneer in women’s health, is a board-certified OB/GYN with more than thirty years of clinical experience, former assistant clinical professor of OB/GYN at the University of Vermont College of Medicine, and three-time New York Times bestselling author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom, The Wisdom of Menopause and Goddesses Never Age. In 2013, Reader’s Digest named Dr. Northrup one of the “100 Most Trusted People in America.” In 2016, she was named one of Oprah Winfrey’s Super Soul 100, a group of leaders who are using their voices and talent to awaken humanity. And in 2020 & 2021, she was included in the Watkins Spiritual 100, a list of living people that make a unique and spiritual contribution on a global scale.

You can also take Dr Northrup's e-course on Energy Vampires, which I highly recommend: https://store.drnorthrup.com/category/store-books/online-courses/

Internationally known for her empowering approach, Dr. Northrup embraces medicine that acknowledges the unity of mind, body, emotions, and spirit, and teaches women to create health by tuning into their inner wisdom. After decades spent transforming women’s understanding of their sacred bodies and processes, Dr. Northrup now teaches women to thrive at every stage of life.

As a business owner, physician, former surgeon, mother, writer, speaker, and, according to Miriam Ava Ph.D., a “rebel, rock star and authority on what can go right with the female body,” Dr. Northrup acknowledges our individual and collective capacity for growth, freedom, joy, and balance.

Dr. Northrup has also hosted eight highly successful public-television specials, and her work has been featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show, the Today Show, NBC Nightly News, The View, Rachael Ray, Good Morning America, 20/20, and The Dr. Oz Show, among many others. Since March 2020, Dr Northrup has worked on the front lines of medical freedom which her colleague Kevin Jenkins, CEO of Urban Global Health, refers to as the “civil rights movement of the 21stcentury.”

The Wisdom of Menopause , 4th Edition

Newly revised and updated for this fourth edition, this groundbreaking book has inspired more than a million women with a dramatically new vision of midlife--and will continue to do so for generations to come.

As Dr. Christiane Northrup explains, the "change" is not simply a collection of physical symptoms to be "fixed," but a mind-body revolution that brings the greatest opportunity for growth since adolescence. The choices a woman makes now--from the quality of her relationships to the quality of her diet--have the power to secure vibrant health and well-being for the rest of her life.

In this fourth edition, Dr. Northrup draws on the current research and medical advances in women's health, including:

- Up-to-date information on hormone testing and hormone therapy, with new options and new research
- A whole new take on losing weight and training your mind to release extra pounds
- New insights on the relationship between thyroid, Hashimoto's Disease, and Epstein Bar Syndrome
- New, less invasive and more effective fibroid treatments
- Which supplements are better than botox for keeping skin looking youthful
- How taking the supplement Pueraria mirifica can optimize many aspects of midlife health and wellness
- Why older women don't need the HPV vaccine

With this trusted resource, Dr. Christiane Northrup shows that women can make menopause a time of personal empowerment--emerging wiser, healthier, and stronger in both mind and body than ever before.

About Patty In the mid-1990s, Patty was a medical student studying at an Osteopathic Medical School. She had always loved learning about the human body, especially how to keep the body healthy. However, as a medical student, she felt as if something was missing. With the desire to expand her knowledge in how to help people heal, she decided to reach out to Dr. Joel Fuhrman MD to intern with him. At the time, he was helping people heal via the principles of Natural Hygiene, and people went to stay with him so that they could reverse their physical ailments via water fasting and lifestyle changes. What she had learned working with Dr. Fuhrman completely changed Patty's understanding of “health”. She saw first-hand that our health was not something we have no control over and learned that there are universal principles that govern our physical health and can take us either to of Well-ville or Hell-ville. After leaving medical school, and deciding not to practice allopathic medicine she decided to become an educator. She completed a Master’s degree in Biochemistry, and began teaching Human Anatomy and Physiology, eventually becoming a Tenured Professor. She also decided to pursue Naturopathy and earned an ND (Doctor of Naturopathy) degree, where she became more proficient in additional healing modalities, including: Natural Hygiene, Naturopathy, Iridology, Nutrition, Bach Flower Essences, Detoxification, and Homeopathy. While studying to become a Naturopathic Doctor, Patty was using what she had learned to help keep my family – including the cats and dogs I share my life with – happy and healthy. In 2016 she I completed ISOD (International School of Detoxification) I and II to become a Detoxification Specialist, and then began working with Dr. Robert Morse ND in Port Charlotte, FL. In addition to working as a detoxification specialist, she also helps to educate future detoxification specialists that are studying through ISOD.

About Dr Bajekal

Dr Nitu Bajekal, FRCOG is a Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist for the NHS and at Spire Bushey Hospital http://www.nitubajekal.co.uk

Dr Bajekal is committed to improving women's health through public education. She is a passionate and enthusiastic teacher and is very involved in the training of future doctors and in empowering women through education. Patient satisfaction is extremely important to her, always keeping the best interests of her patients at heart.

Over the last 30 years of clinical practice, Dr Bajekal has developed special expertise in many areas, including endometriosis, PCOS, teenage health, and the menopause. She is skilled in Minimal Access Surgery(keyhole surgery), Vulval disease & cervical cancer screening.

Over the years, Dr Bajekal has developed a nutrition-focused and holistic approach to treatment, encouraging patients to make lifestyle changes to improve their health. She was inspired in 2014 to set up a women for women's health service (WfWH) along with her colleague after a growing realisation that by empowering a woman through information and open discussion, not only her health improved but also that of her entire family. They recognised the key role that nutrition and lifestyle play in major gynaecological conditions such as some cancers, polycystic ovarian syndrome, menopause.

Dr Bajekal believes this knowledge should be available to people of all ages and from all walks of life. Young people especially are at the right stage where making small changes can have a tremendous impact on their future health.

About Finding Me in Menopause

Buy the book on Amazon

HRT is the one-stop solution for difficult menopause symptoms, we are told.

But what if you don't want to take it?
What if you can't take it?
What if you can't get to a doctor?
What if you can't get through to a doctor?

In Finding Me in Menopause, Dr Nitu Bajekal, OBGYN, and one of the UK's first Board-Certified Lifestyle Medicine Physicians, shares how lifestyle interventions, and the food we eat, can dramatically transform menopausal health. following the principle of six lifestyle pillars, she gives simple yet scientific nutrition and lifestyle tips to transform the experience of menopause, with or without hormone therapy.

Throughout her book, Dr Bajekal shows you how to lead a healthier and happier life, and make a positive difference for yourself and your loved ones, using time-tested techniques that anyone can access. You will learn how to identify and manage stress, understand how sleep affects our hormones, the role of exercise in our lives, and the importance of maintaining positive social connections for our mental health.

There is dietary support, which draws on the science and power of plant-based nutrition to offer Menopause Menus - dozens of easy, delicious, and nourishing plant-based recipes for breakfast, main meals, and snacks from Nitu's kitchen with a shopping plan, and health insights for each dish.

Each lifestyle pillar chapter concludes with a Menopause Mantra: a summary, a list of the top self-help tips to implement and a positive affirmation that is tied to that chapter.

Finding Me In Menopause is an inclusive, non-pharmaceutical, holistic program that takes into account the needs of all women, from all backgrounds, removing the barriers that might stop you seeking support and giving you straightforward, achievable lifestyle-based strategies that will make a huge difference to your wellbeing.

Breaking through the fear of cervical screenings with Dr Ben Snowden

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Dr Ben Snowden, HapiLegs) — Tue, 16 Apr 2024 07:00:00 +0000

In this episode of The Green Life, we dive into the importance of smear tests and cervical screenings, and the barriers that women commonly find, when it is time to go for their checks. The anxiety, pressure and vulnerability we sometimes feel can prevent us from going to our appointments at all, resulting in health issues that would have been otherwise preventable, such as Cervical Cancer. To discuss this matter, I have NHS OBGYN ,Doctor Ben Snowden, who is also the co-funder of HapiLegs the only surgical trousers designed to facilitate cervical screenings and similar procedures, to give women the control and power back during gynaecological examinations.

About Dr Marbas

Laurie Marbas, MD, MBA is a double board-certified family medicine and lifestyle medicine physician, who has been utilizing food as medicine since 2012. She currently holds 50 state medical licenses (plus DC) across the United States. She has a small concierge practice and accepting new patients at drmarbas.com (http://drmarbas.com/). She is co-founder of The Healing Kitchen (https://www.drmarbas.com/the-healing-kitchen), with Brittany Jaroudi, where a chef and doctor come together in the kitchen to provide a recipe of health.

She was a former co-founder of Mora Medical and Plant Based TeleHealth. She was instrumental in creating and was the first Managing Editor for the Plantrician Project’s International Journal of Disease Reversal and Prevention. She is also the host of the Dr. Laurie Marbas podcast, whose mission is to provide resources that will empower individuals with the knowledge, mindset, and inspiration to successfully adopt lifestyle interventions and achieve health and wellbeing.

In Colorado, Laurie persuaded a large hospital to create a lifestyle medicine program centered around a WFPB diet, the program showed resounding success. At another hospital, she conducted a one-month study of 26 employees on a WFPB diet. All employees were fed from the hospital’s kitchen, and each individual experienced improved health. She has spoken at the Golden VegFest in Colorado, the International Plant-based Nutrition Healthcare Conference, and other venues teaching about the value of the WFPB diet.

Laurie received her dual degrees (MD and MBA) from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center School of Medicine and TTU School of Business. She was awarded the Texas Tech University School of Medicine Gold Headed Cane Award, a symbol for excellence in the art of medicine and the care of patients. She wrote seven books while in medical school, six of which were in a series called “Visual Mnemonics.” These books used cartoons to help people memorize vast amounts of information—a system that helped her personally when she was a mom attending medical school. As a United States Air Force veteran, she served in the Middle East and South America. She is also a wife, mom of three grown children, author, speaker, and avid runner.

About Maxime

He Had his Own Struggle With Food, Self-Confidence And Being Fat!

There was a point where Maxime weighed 240 lbs! He wasn't happy with where his body was at. One day he was driving and he hit a speed bump and it made his "Moobs" at the time and stomach jiggle for too long. That was it!!! He decided that he wasn't going to be a chunky man with breast! He wanted to be fit, healthy and take control of his life so that he could perform at the best of his ability, which he did!

Since then he competed in several Ironman 70.3, triathlon, spartan races and built multiple successful companies. All on a 100% Plant-Based Lifestyle. Moreover, he was inspired by his personal story, which he shares here on the Green Life with us.

About DR Robert Morse N.D.

Dr. Morse, a licensed naturopathic physician, biochemist, iridologist and a great herbalist, has a naturopathic practice and is the founder of the International School of Detoxification in the USA. For the past 50 years, Dr. Morse has developed a cell regenerating detoxification program that is suitable for anyone who wants to have a healthy and vital body.

Due to the fact that people have systematically consumed the wrong food for years, the condition of our human cells has reached a dramatic low point. All our organs and glands, which are in constant cooperation with our lymph system (our waste system) and have a life-supporting function, have never been so low in their vitality, with all kinds of complaints as a result. The kidneys and adrenal glands play the central role in the deacidification of our body and all forms of inflammation. Acidification is caused, among other things, by wrong lifestyle habits and hereditary degeneration. In recent decades, people have been focused on “diseases” and “combating complaints”, so that we have completely forgotten how we can help ourselves in a natural way. Our health is a direct result of what we drink, eat, breathe in and what we put on our skin. By detoxifying your body you can regain the vitality and balance of your body.

No matter what your age, health is one of your greatest assets while you're living your journey on this planet. For generations, man has been ignorant of his/her body's proper nutritional needs. It is not difficult to understand the proper foods man should be consuming, which is simply reflected in the physiological design of the human species. Once called omnivores by many, humans are actually frugivores. Man's diet should be predominantly fruits and vegetables, instead of dead animals, their milks, and dormant foods (grains & beans).

Understanding this and what one must do to reverse this is vital in the preservation of our species and one's experience of True Health. There is so much misinformation, mainly because of big business, that man is confused and frustrated.

Dr Morse's clinic has been dedicated to truth and using Regenerative Detoxification to assist humans and animals back to health for over 40 years now. Health becomes very simple when you understand how one loses it. Dr Morse has spent decades assisting thousands in restoring and regenerating the tissues of their physical bodies as well as connecting them with God again.

True happiness is a combination of physical, emotional and mental balance with a broader understanding of who you, as an individual, really are.

Please note that Dr. Morse is no longer seeing clients so he may focus on research, writing, and educating. Our other counselors were carefully chosen and trained by Dr. Morse for their knowledge, experience, passion and dedication to helping the suffering find true health. You can however, ask questions to Dr Morse on his amazing TV channel and he will reply in video format https://drmorse.tv

Dr Morse' school of healing has amazing resources and great courses too: https://courses.internationalschoolofthehealingarts.com/start/

Exploring the relationship between gut health and weight loss with Louise Digby

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Louise Digby) — Tue, 6 Feb 2024 07:00:00 +0000

in today's episode we explore the relationship between a healthy gut microbiome and weight loss with nutritional therapist Louise Digby , helping women navigate ways to improve their gut health in a sustainable way

Check out our Farm in Northern Portugalwww.ecodharmavillage.com

Work with me! www.liveleanhealth.com

About Louise

Louise is a registered nutritional therapist and, with her team, she helps women to reignite their spark and get back to enjoying life to the full! She helps them to get their dream body, supercharge their energy and overcome frustrating symptoms like bloating, bowel problems, skin complaints and much more. When Louise first began practising nutrition, she struggled to help her clients achieve significant weight loss; they were doing all the 'right' things but just weren’t seeing results. She now know that there is SO much more to weight management than simply eating less and exercising more.

There are SO many factors that can get in our way: hormones, blood sugars, gut bacteria, toxic load and inflammation are the key areas of imbalance that can impact metabolism. Add to this poor willpower and pesky cravings and it becomes clear why weight loss can be such a challenge. That’s why she created The Nourish Method to Lasting Fat Loss; a 6 month, online programme that provides women with the personalised strategy, the accountability and the support needed.

When the air in our homes making us sick, with Michael Rubino

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Michael Rubino) — Tue, 2 Jan 2024 07:00:00 +0000

In today's episode I have the pleasure of speaking to Michael Rubino, aka "The Mold Medic",about the air quality in our homes! Could it be that what in inside may be worse for our health than what is outside? Let's dive into this very important topic and learn how to preserve our wellbeing longterm.

Work with me! www.liveleanhealth.com

About Michael

Michael Rubino has become a renowned leader in the mold and remediation space. President of HomeCleanse, formerly known as, All American Restoration and Author of The Mold Medic: An Expert's Guide on Mold Removal, Michael continues to push the conversation forward for creating better indoor air quality. He’s been featured on dozens of podcasts and news channels as the leading expert on all aspects of mold, remediation, and air quality. He is also a council-certified Mold Remediator by IICRC and ACAC and a contributing member, sponsor, and speaker for the Indoor Air Quality Association.

Michael grew up in the construction and remediation industry, with his father, Richard Rubino having owned contracting companies for over three decades. As Michael grew older, he began working with his father in the remediation space. In this time, he began noticing issues with how the current industry addressed remediation in homes. Time and again, he noticed individuals seeking re-remediation for continued adverse health reactions or reoccurrence of mold colonies.

As fate would have it, his wife, Colby, grew up in a family consisting of some of the nation's leading mold inspectors. They quickly confirmed Michael's concerns with how poorly the current remediation industry was addressing homes. His experience led him to establish HomeCleanse, a company focused on change.

He became a specialist in working with people who are immunocompromised or have acute and sustained reactions to mold exposure. By working with scientific understanding, he was able to create alternative remediation protocols. These treatments provide solutions that not only get rid of mold sources but also get rid of the contamination created by those mold sources using his proprietary “Home Detox” method.

He quickly realized that while he could try to help as many clients as possible every year, the best way to help improve indoor air quality worldwide was to share his wealth of knowledge with others. His book The Mold Medic provides a step-by-step guide to mold remediation and improving indoor air quality so that everyone has the opportunity to create a safe and healthy home.

Michael was featured on GOOP, MindBodyGreen, NBC, FOX and other national media outlets, discussing his mission and purpose to make our homes' air safe!

About Sophie

In 2015 Sophie was signed off work due to insomnia and anxiety. She was incredibly stressed both physically & mentally and as a result she suffered from numerous health problems. She trained as a yoga teacher & began to heal herself through meditation & movement. However she soon burnt out for a second time 2 years into her teaching journey. Becoming a yoga teacher hadn’t magically transformed her - she realised that she needed to do the deeper work!

A sudden separation & divorce hit her out of the blue so she decided to move to Bali. She realised that she wanted & needed to work on herself on a deeper level.

She looked at codependency, boundaries, people pleasing. She looked at her relationships with partners, family, friends.. and started to understand why she had been suffering with anxiety & insomnia for so long & realised that it was completely up to her to change her mindset & beliefs.

She was shocked at why she hadn’t been taught any of this at school! As dramatic as it sounds, it really was a complete rebirth that has completely set her free. Through various mentors, courses & self-study she raised her self-worth & has stepped into her full potential and now helps people do the same!

The importance of healthy relationships, dynamics, roles and boundaries

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Chantal Di Donato) — Tue, 17 Oct 2023 06:00:00 +0000

In this episode I continue the conversation we had about family ancestry and healing, going into the importance for roles in a family, boundaries and healthy dynamics. I always draw from my own experience, knowing that a lot of people can relate and we always learn from others. The important part in sharing this is that I learned a lot about me; and though know the root is my family upbringing, the truth is that I have taken responsibility for creating the life I want and being the person I need to be to make it happen! My mission is to serve others in healing, so I have to always do the work to heal!

About me

As a Board Certified Holistic Health Coach , Holistic Nutritionist and plant-based Nutritional Expert, my passion lies in empowering women to achieve optimal health and well-being.

I'm also a functional movement teacher, and energy healer, helping individuals embrace movement as a key component of their wellness journey.

My commitment to spreading awareness about holistic health and plant-based nutrition has led me to become a published author, public speaker, and guest presenter at CUNY. Additionally, I've had the honour of being a guest presenter on PCRM's One Healthy World (Un Monde Sain) and host of The Green Life Podcast.

Currently, I'm taking my education to new heights , on the path to becoming a Naturopathic Doctor, studying under the wonderful teachings of Dr. Robert Morse.

In 2019, I decided to embark on a life-changing journey and left London to settle in a quaint rural town in Portugal. Here, my husband and I found a haven - a lovely farm we named Eco Dharma Village. Our days are filled with learning about self-sustainability, growing our own food and connecting with like-minded individuals in the community.

Eco Dharma Village is not just a farm; it is a Vegan sanctuary. Our mission is to provide a loving home for animals in need, and we've already rescued twenty dogs (keeping eight) and three cats - and who knows, we may grow our family even more! We also opened the space to host healing retreats and eco-tourism experiences.

With each passing day, I'm humbled by the incredible connections I've made and the profound impact we can create on ourselves, others, and the environment through holistic living and compassionate choices.

Thank you for being a part of this amazing journey with me, and I look forward to continuing to share and grow together!

Described as a plant-based powerhouse, Lauren is a force to be reckoned with as a thought-leader in upgrading nutrition education. The essence of her practice focuses on whole-person healing that connects emotions to the physical body. Reaching below the surface to examine our relationship with food is the key to establishing long-term, body-positive, stigma-smashing, nutrition habits. Her philosophy simplifies food selection and empowers individuals, allowing plant-based nutrition to become an inclusive standard of nourishment for people across cultures and throughout the life-cycle.

About Eva

Eva was born in Spain in the 70s and moved to the United States to study abroad at the age of 17.

She immediately fell in love with everything the US had to offer, and one of the first things she came to love most was American food!

Growing up in Spain meant sticking to a traditional diet of meat and dairy with some fruits and vegetables. She almost never ate junk food, fast or processed food. But, In spite of not having had junk foods growing up, Eva's diet was not great as it did include lots of pastries, oils, fried foods and traditional Spanish foods which were heavy in fats.

Between her diet growing up, and the newly found diet in the US, Eva found herself plagued by hormonal and other health issues around the time she hit her early forties.

She had started eating more fruits and vegetables, had been vegetarian and, unfortunately, a junk food vegan for some years, but the damage had been done. During this challenging time, Eva's period would start and then last 2-3 weeks of extremely heavy flow. Twice she was so weak from blood loss, she was told she needed a blood transfusion.

Eva's gynecologist put it all down to age and declared what she called peri- menopausal issues as “normal”. She went on to prescribe Hormonal Therapy, recommended a painful procedure to have the lining of her uterus scraped off followed by a hysterectomy, if that treatment didn't yield the desired result.

Eva declined, feeling deep inside that there had to be a better way to heal, and that pills and surgery were just a quick fix that didn’t address the real cause of her troubles.

Eva took stock of all the symptoms she was suffering with : extreme mood swings, bad breath, hair loss, body odor, acne, weakness and fatigue, on and off depression, anxiety, eye bags, extreme food addictions and an overall sense of just not feeling good no matter how long she slept or rested, and decided to take matters in her own hands Eva found the Raw Food lifestyle after attending the Hippocrates Health Institute! What a transforming miracle raw foods brought on! Eva has been a raw foodie consistently since 2014 and it has changed her whole outlook on life.

About Torre

Since a very young age, Torre has been fascinated with how things worked and how they were created. He would take things apart to see if he could re-assemble them and have them work as if he never took them apart. This was the beginning of the engineer that wanted to design a great physique. Having studied the physiques of Arnold Schwarzenegger, the bodybuilders of that era, and the comic book characters such as superman and wolverine, he started sculpting his body with a dumbbell and a bench. Some years later he acquired a degree in engineering, but his passion for sculpting physiques never faded, it rather strengthened when he witnessed a friend compete and win in 2009. His passion drove him to have the courage to start learning about bodybuilding and begin competing. He took a great leap of faith to pursue his dream to become one of fitness greats and share his gift with the world. Torre now trains professional athletes, celebrities as well as the general public.

Soul level healing with Antonia Beamish

In today's episode I have a friend joining us, Antonia Beamish, to discuss some really powerful healing modalities that go deep at soul level: Soul Contract reading and Divine Healing. I am excited for you to discover how powerful these are, in my experience

About Antonia

Antonia's mission is to help people realign mind, body and soul, through releasing unhealed emotional stress and bringing the light of awareness to their consciousness.

Antonia's journey all started in her mid-twenties when she reached a point of burnout. Little did she know at the time, the energies of her soul contract, make her extremely prone to overwhelm, but at the time she was clueless and in desperate need of help.

Searching for answers, she discovered Kinesiology. Not only did it nurture her physically, but it gave her the gift of love after she released a block around feeling worthy of love. It was a matter of weeks later she met the man she'd fall in love with.

She shares this story with an open heart because it was this very reason that led her to train as a Kinesiology practitioner in 2017.

She wanted to help others understand how subconscious beliefs and trauma all contribute to our health and happiness, and how symptoms act as a signpost, pointing to the unhealed emotional wounds need our compassion and attention.

Plant Powered Protein for everyone with Brenda Davis and Vesanto Melina

Episode Notes

In today's episode Brenda Davis is back, this time with co-author Vesanto Melina, to discuss the nutritional details and truth around plant based protein! If you have been asked or yourself asked the question: "here do you get you protein?" before, this interview will clarify it all for you! We dive into why plant based protein is more than adequate, how to get enough and also, how to do it at different stages of our lives!

This episode is brought to you by Nama Well :www.namawell.com and if you want to save 10% on the J2, you can use CHANTAL10 (NOT PAID SPONSORSHIP)

About Plant Powered Protein

In their latest release, PLANT-POWERED PROTEIN: Nutrition Essentials and Dietary Guidelines for All Ages, Canadian plant-based nutrition experts Brenda Davis, RD, and Vesanto Melina, MS, RD, together with Cory Davis, answer the top
question for many people considering a plant-based diet: Will I get enough protein? The exciting answer is a resounding YES.The authors provide scientific studies, tables, charts, and in-depth nutritional analyses to show that plants are an abundant source of high-quality protein, and explain the roles of macronutrients and micronutrients, and how the amino acids found in protein promote healthy growth. Readers learn how to determine their recommended daily allowance (RDA) for protein per age groups, and how to obtain all the vital nutrients each group requires. Two key advantages worth noting about plant protein: (1) it has a much lighter carbon footprint, and (2) it offers distinct health advantages. From land usage to water consumption, plant-based protein supports the environment. Plant protein contains vital compounds, such as fiber, anti- oxidants, and phytochemical, that help reduce the risk of chronic diseases, and lack harmful components found in animal products, such as cholesterol, endotoxins, and saturated fats. Menus and a daily guide to healthful eating assist with planning a nutritionally balanced diet. Thirty delicious recipes make it easy to put this essential information into practice.

About Farm of Life

Farm of Life is the ideal environment for a journey to wellness. Healing involves rest, nourishing food, clean air, pure water, and a life-giving sun. We have maximized these healing properties. We’ve created beautiful spaces for relaxation and restoration. We are located away from tourist areas and roads. We enjoy the rhythmic flow and silent peace of nature. The air is fresh, clean and ionized. We walk on easy-to-barefoot trails. The restorative properties of ocean and waterfalls can be accessed by car or hiking. Our water comes directly from springs. Bathe in a spring-fed pool, a chemical-free infinite pool and eat organic too. The farm’s fruit orchard was planted with intention to bless and heal and a greenhouse produces nourishing greens. Meals are prepared with consciousness and love.

Many guests visit Farm of Life with specific issues they want to heal, such as chronic disease, stress, overweight, depression, anxiety, GI problems, high blood pressure, cancer, fatigue, insomnia, quitting smoking, etc. Regardless of why, they all benefit from Farm of Life’s healthy environment, nourishing foods, life inspiration and spiritual guidance. Guests spend as much time as they need here to heal and transform, generally anywhere from 2-weeks to 2-months.

About Brian and Jodie

Your hosts, husband and wife team Brian and Jody Calvi, are often described as the perfect compliment to one another, the Yin and the Yang of Farm of Life. While Brian is an adept visionary and teacher, Jody is the maestra of details. They keep a pulse on the needs of the guests, farm, employees, volunteers, etc and together manage nearly every aspect of farm life. Brian and Jody are attentive to the guest experience, seeking excellence for you in all aspects. They specifically provide assistance, education, support and motivation, arranging tours and services, guiding tours, giving health coaching, sound therapy, water aerobics and reiki, teaching workshops and Qigong and so much more.

Their respective histories recovering from chronic disease inspired them to open Farm of Life. They are grateful for the healing journey they’ve experienced, and feel their higher purpose is to give back to others in need.

The Anatomy of Health with Patty Lager

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Patty Lager, Dr Robert Morse N.D.) — Tue, 27 Jun 2023 07:00:00 +0000

In this episode I have the pleasure of interviewing Patty Lager MS, ND a wonderful healer, detox specialist and Anatomy and physiology Professor. We are diving into the difference between allopathic taught anatomy and the details shared and questioned in Naturopathy, plus a few interesting snippets about what Detox really is, how to dodge the scams and how to work with practitioners that care! And something for our furry friends too.

This episode is brought to you by Nama Well :www.namawell.com and if you want to save 10% on the J2, you can use CHANTAL10 (NOT PAID SPONSORSHIP)

About Patty

In the mid-1990s, Patty was a medical student studying at an Osteopathic Medical School. She had always loved learning about the human body, especially how to keep the body healthy. However, as a medical student, she felt as if something was missing. With the desire to expand her knowledge in how to help people heal, she decided to reach out to Dr. Joel Fuhrman MD to intern with him. At the time, he was helping people heal via the principles of Natural Hygiene, and people went to stay with him so that they could reverse their physical ailments via water fasting and lifestyle changes. What she had learned working with Dr. Fuhrman completely changed Patty's understanding of “health”.

She saw first-hand that our health was not something we have no control over and learned that there are universal principles that govern our physical health and can take us either to of Well-ville or Hell-ville.

After leaving medical school, and deciding not to practice allopathic medicine she decided to become an educator. She completed a Master’s degree in Biochemistry, and began teaching Human Anatomy and Physiology, eventually becoming a Tenured Professor.

She also decided to pursue Naturopathy and earned an ND (Doctor of Naturopathy) degree, where she became more proficient in additional healing modalities, including: Natural Hygiene, Naturopathy, Iridology, Nutrition, Bach Flower Essences, Detoxification, and Homeopathy. While studying to become a Naturopathic Doctor, Patty was using what she had learned to help keep my family – including the cats and dogs I share my life with – happy and healthy. In 2016 she I completed ISOD (International School of Detoxification) I and II to become a Detoxification Specialist, and then began working with Dr. Robert Morse ND in Port Charlotte, FL. In addition to working as a detoxification specialist, she also helps to educate future detoxification specialists that are studying through ISOD.

About Chris

In December 2003 Chris was diagnosed with Stage IIIc colon cancer. There was a golf ball sized tumor in his large intestine, and the cancer had spread to my lymph nodes. It was two days before Christmas, and he was 26 years old.

The oncologist told Chris that he was “insane” but he decided against chemotherapy after surgery. After prayerful consideration he radically changed his diet and did every natural non-toxic therapy he could find.

Seven years later, in 2010, he started Chris Beat Cancer, as a blog to share his story and everything he learned about nutrition and natural therapies for cancer. He also started sharing cancer healing testimonials from other survivors and the rest is history!

Tue, 28 Mar 2023 06:00:00 +0000

Can we change cultural dogmas with kindness? In today's episode, I discuss the challenges of bringing a plant based diet and veganism in cultures that have built their identity around animal based products, such as France. My guests, Ann and Noemie have taken on a beautiful project with The Physician Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) and helped co-create "Un Monde Sain", the French chapter of "One Healthy World", to share the amazing benefits of going plant based and thinking about animals and nature even if it goes against the grain!

Supporting women in the workplace with Silatha's founder, Veroniek Vermeulen

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Veroniek Vermeulen, Silatha) — Tue, 21 Mar 2023 07:00:00 +0000

Women play a crucial role in a successful workplace, but businesses have repeatedly struggled to retain their female employees. Veroniek Vermeulen has created. solution to support women in the workplace as well as educating companies about the best way to support women at work and therefore, retain precious talent. We dive into the Silatha app to explore what started and transformed this platform to what it is now.

Check out my 5 stars retreat In Portugal, May 2023. A beautiful blend f holiday with holistic therapies and yoga with amazing plant based food. https://www.liveleanhealth.com/luxretreat

About Veroniek and Silatha

Veroniek is on a mission to create an inclusive workplace where women feel accepted, trusted and valued, at enterprises that believe they can be more successful with an inclusive environment for women. By breaking through the taboos around different women realities like menopause, fertility and PMS.

She is engineer by trade and spent 17+ years in global marketing (with a 2B$ responsibility), and spent the last 10 years immersing herself in the world of meditation and coaching,

She is a ICF Certified coach and lived in different monasteries to reconnect with herself and her true purpose. She is the creator of ‘Anchor Meditation’ method and received many awards during her career including, recently, the Influential Leader Award by BrainzMagazine, next to stars like Jessica Alba, Jay Shetty, Oprah Winfrey and Whitney Wolfe Herd.

It all started in 2012, when she took time out from her career in senior corporate management, for a meditation retreat in Nepal. In the Himalayas, she had a life-changing realisation. She felt what it meant to be in the present moment. By contrast, our modern lifestyles are busy and preoccupied, we spend half of our time thinking about the past or future, rather than being in the moment.

As she understood how meditation enables consciousness and peace of mind, this motivated her to transform the way she lived.

She continued her learning curve whilst living in monasteries in Vietnam, Japan and Myanmar. At the same time she was seeing what happened in the workplace that is created by men for men, and realised women are not using their full potential, and that the workplace would be better as a whole when women have more direct influence.

She noticed that diverse teams with women make organizations more innovative, productive, collaborative while increasing profitability by 15% and decided to support enterprises that believe they can be more successful when creating an empowering and inclusive environment for women, so that everyone can flourish. This is how Silatha transformed from a wonderful mediation app to a resource for HR!

From Food to Freedom with Nelson Campbell

In this episode we are chatting to Nelson Campbell, CEO and President of Plant Pure, Movie director and health activist, about the power of community, taking charge of our health and the challenges of going against the grain!

Please make sure you check Plant Pure and the not for profit branch Plant Pure Communities, and join or create a POD wherever you are!

About Nelson

Founder of PlantPure Communities
President of PlantPure Communities

On the heels of writing and directing the 2015 documentary film PlantPure Nation, Nelson Campbell founded the nonprofit organization PlantPure Communities (PPC) in early 2016. Released in theaters in over 100 cities, the PlantPure Nation film (now on YouTube and Amazon Prime) examines the political and economic factors that suppress information about the benefits of plant-based nutrition, and makes connections to public policy, medical practice, food deserts, and farming.

As the President of PPC, Nelson continues to drive the strategic direction of the organization. His vision includes grassroots strategies for empowering people in local communities to share the plant-based nutrition message, including in our many under-resourced communities, and for addressing climate change and other environmental problems through a change in our food choices.

Nelson also founded the PlantPure, Inc. foods business. This business supports PPC’s strategies with its commitment to provide food products into under-resourced communities through non-retail channels at discounted prices.

Prior to his involvement with PlantPure Nation, Nelson worked for 25 years as a socially conscious business entrepreneur. He graduated from Cornell University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science, and a Master’s Degree in Economics.

About Plant Pure

In 2015, Nelson Campbell released the hit documentary film, PlantPure Nation in over 100 theatres. It's now available through streaming services including Amazon Prime, iTunes and YouTube. The film was a hit, but PlantPure was just getting started. With the goal to help more people experience the benefits of a whole food, plant-based lifestyle, we launched a line of food products and other educational programming.

"We must think big if we’re going to heal our world."

The PP team recognises that a plant-based world must include everyone. For too long, information on nutrition and health has bypassed the very communities where our epidemic of chronic disease is most severe. To make matters worse, these communities often lack access to affordable healthy foods.

Plant Pure is committed to waiving profits from their meal starter products to make them as affordable as possible for people struggling with food insecurity and/or lacking access to affordable healthy food options. They testing strategies to reach these folks, and once they find one or more that work, they will expand this effort nationwide.

Their goal is to build a plant-based world as quickly as possible, leaving no one behind.

HOW CAN WE SUPPORT? Whenever we sit down to a delicious meal prepared from one of their meal starters, we can know that we are healing not only ourselves but also helping to bring healing to where it’s needed most.

Brace yourself for a heart filling episode full of a special ingredient: LOVE!

A beautiful blend f holiday with holistic therapies and yoga with amazing plant based food. https://www.liveleanhealth.com/luxretreat

About Dr Bernie Siegel

Dr. Siegel, who prefers to be called Bernie, not Dr. Siegel, was born in Brooklyn, NY. He attended Colgate University and Cornell University Medical College. He holds membership in two scholastic honor societies, Phi Beta Kappa and Alpha Omega Alpha and graduated with honors. His surgical training took place at Yale New Haven Hospital, West Haven Veteran’s Hospital and the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. He retired from practice as an assistant clinical professor of surgery at Yale of general and pediatric surgery in 1989 to speak to patients and their caregivers.

In 1978, he originated Exceptional Cancer Patients, a specific form of individual and group therapy utilizing patients’ drawings, dreams, images and feelings. ECaP is based on “carefrontation,” a safe, loving therapeutic confrontation, which facilitates personal lifestyle changes, personal empowerment and healing of the individual’s life. The physical, spiritual and psychological benefits which followed led to his desire to make everyone aware of his or her healing potential. He realized exceptional behavior is what we are all capable of.

Bernie, and his wife and coworker Bobbie, who died in 2018, lived in a suburb of New Haven, Connecticut. They have five children and eight grandchildren. Bernie and Bobbie have co-authored their children, books and articles. Their home with its many children, pets and interests resembled a cross between a family art gallery, museum, zoo and automobile repair shop. It still resembles these things, although the children are trying to improve its appearance in order to avoid embarrassment.

In 1986 his first book, Love. Medicine & Miracles was published. This event redirected his life. In 1989 Peace, Love & Healing and in 1993 How To Live Between Office Visits followed. He is currently working on other books with the goal of humanizing medical education and medical care, as well as, empowering patients and teaching survival behavior to enhance immune system competency. Bernie’s realization that we all need help dealing with the difficulties of life, not just the physical ones, led to Bernie writing his fourth book in 1998 Prescriptions for Living. It helps people to become aware of the eternal truths and wisdom of the sages through Bernie’s stories and insights rather than wait a personal disaster. He wants to help people fix their lives before they are broken, and thus not have to become strong at the broken places. Published in 2003 are Help Me To Heal to empower patients and their caregivers and 365 Prescriptions For The Soul, in 2004 a children’s book about how difficulties can become blessings, Smudge Bunny, in 2005 101 Exercises For The Soul and out in the Fall of 2006 a prescriptions for parenting book Love, Magic & Mud Pies. Published in 2008 Buddy’s Candle, for children of all ages, related to dealing with the loss of a loved one, be it a pet or parent, and published in 2009 Faith, Hope & Healing with inspiring survivor stories and my reflections about what they teach us. Also out is Words Swords, my poetry and chance to write and react with your own. In the Fall of 2011 A Book of Miracles was published with amazing stories and my comments. In September 2013 my latest book The Art of Healing was published containing 60 drawings by patients and what they reveal.. Out in November of 2015 Love, Animals & Miracles containing heartwarming inspiring and informative stories about life.

Mia and Robby have 2 wonderfully touching stories, going through struggles in their parallel lives and then meeting and growing together in faith, love and business with a plant based cafe that goes beyond physical nourishment.

Mia and Robby'story!

It was a normal Friday evening at an AA meeting in Lutz, Florida. A recovering alcoholic that was sober 18 months and an IV drug user just months of being clean, had a divine encounter that changed the course of their lives and so many others around them forever. Revelations Cafe has never been about the food or the great coffee that they serve, they knew before they established their business, that it was going to be a place where people could go to encounter the Holy Spirit. They surrendered their business to the Lord as a house of miracles, and the Spirit of the living God is free to do His will above our own.

Getting RAW with Bella Mahaya Carter

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Bella Mahaya Carter) — Tue, 1 Nov 2022 00:00:00 +0000

In this episode of The Green Life, we are getting raw with author and coach Bella Carter, and her amazing journey that inspired her book: Raw, My Journey from Anxiety to Joy, which is a very relatable journey into physical, emotional and spiritual health choices.

Bella is passionate about the power of writing to heal and transform lives. She helps other writers, artists, and healers navigate work and life from the inside out.

In addition to teaching, she loves coaching new and established authors, and her new new book , "Where do you hang your hammock", is a great resource to get creative and productive.

Bella studied dance at The Juilliard School, and earned a B.A. in Dance and Literature from Scripps College; an M.F.A. in Film Production, with a Screenwriting emphasis, from The University of Southern California’s School of Cinematic Arts; and an M.A. in Spiritual Psychology from The University of Santa Monica (USM).

Her book, Raw, describes her quest for health and happiness, which , she says, dragged her kicking and screaming into spiritual adulthood. Anxiety and a desire to heal holistically is at the heart of this story, which reveals her struggles to face her fears and to surrender things beyond her control. (words were paraphrased from Bella's description of this Book.)

Consuming foods high on the food chain, specifically animal products, is wasteful. The same acre of land produces 17 times more calories growing potatoes compared to beef.Farming animal-based foods is fossil fuel intensive. Growing, manufacturing, and transporting plant-based foods produces relatively more and better-quality food for less energy, producing fewer molecules of planet-warming CO2. Cattle and sheep cause additional damage by producing a far more powerful GHG, methane, by intestinal rumination.

How Safe and Effective is fasting

Diving into Lifestyle Medicine with Dr Michael Klaper

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Dr Michael Klaper) — Mon, 5 Sep 2022 23:00:00 +0000

In this episode of the Green Life, we are diving into Lifestyle Medicine with a doctor who embodies it fully: Dr Michael Klaper. A rich conversation on topics that are sometimes source of confusion and can be not only simple to grasp but apply too!

Dr. Klaper resolutely believes that proper nutrition — through a whole food, plant-based diet — and a balanced lifestyle are essential for health and, in many cases, can make the difference between healing an illness or merely treating its symptoms.

Dr. Michael Klaper is a gifted clinician, internationally-recognized teacher, and sought-after speaker on diet and health. In addition to his clinical practice and private consultations with patients, he is a passionate and devoted educator of physicians and other healthcare professionals about the importance of nutrition in clinical practice and integrative medicine.

Dr. Klaper is the author of Vegan Nutrition, and has produced numerous health videos, webinars and dozens of articles for both scientific journals and the popular press. As a source of inspiration advocating plant-based diets and the end of animal cruelty worldwide, Dr. Klaper contributed to the making of two PBS television programs, Food for Thought and the award-winning movie, Diet for a New America (based on the book of the same name). Dr. Klaper teaches that “Health Comes From Healthy Living” and he is dedicated to the healing and flourishing of all living beings and our planet.

Dr. Michael Klaper graduated from the University of Illinois College of Medicine in 1972. As his medical career progressed, Dr. Klaper began to realize (true to what science is bearing out today) that many of the diseases his patients presented – clogged arteries (atherosclerosis), high blood pressure (hypertension), obesity, adult-onset diabetes and even some forms of arthritis, asthma, and other significant illnesses – were made worse or actually caused by the high sugar, high fat, high salt, overly processed, animal product-based, Standard American Diet (S.A.D.).

Dr. Klaper served as Director of the Institute of Nutrition Education and Research from 1992 through 2015, where he conducted a study that focused on people who ate a completely plant-based or vegan diet. Dr. Klaper practiced acute care medicine in New Zealand for three years and from 2009 through 2018, served on staff at the TrueNorth Health Center, North America’s premier nutritionally-based medical clinic that specializes in therapeutic fasting and health improvement through a whole food, plant-based diet.A member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, Dr. Klaper was a member of the American Medical Student Association’s Nutrition Task Force and currently serves on the Advisory Board for the Plantrician Project and the "International Journal of Disease Reversal and Prevention." For over 10 years, Dr. Klaper hosted a popular medical information radio program “Sounds of Healing” on WPFW in Washington, DC and KAOI on Maui, Hawaii. Dr. Michael Klaper is licensed to practice medicine in California and Hawaii.

The Physiology of Yoga with Matt Huy

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Matthew Huy) — Mon, 22 Aug 2022 23:00:00 +0000

In today's episode we will be discussing our beautiful bodies! We will dive into Anatomy and Physiology, but not from a boring and theoretical prospective, rather from a very relatable place: the way we feel and see our bodies move! Matt and his co-author Andrew McGonigle MD share knowledge, myths and facts in their latest book, The Physiology of Yoga, that will allow you to understand your body in an entirely different way!

About the Book: While many people practice yoga simply because it helps them feel good, the physiological basis for yoga’s effects on the body and mind is often unknown or misunderstood. Understanding these physiological concepts can help to deepen your yoga practice. The Physiology of Yoga separates speculation from fact by examining how the body responds and adapts to yoga within many systems of the body: musculoskeletal, nervous, respiratory, cardiovascular, lymphatic, immune, endocrine, reproductive, and digestive.

LEARN ABOUT 5G AND THE BEES

Understanding Geo engineering and finding solutions with Nikki Floreo

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Nikki Floreo, Bee Heroic) — Mon, 15 Aug 2022 23:00:00 +0000

In this episode we are diving a little outside out comfort zone with a discussion on Geo Engineering. Thought people like to discard it as conspiracy theory, it is no theory, it is science at work; sadly against our wellbeing and nature's. Nikki shares her research and findings and the work she does through BeeHeroic.com

For visual prevention event you can check this video (I suggest listening to the podcast first)

About Nikki

Nikki Florio is the founder/director of Bee Heroic; an adult focused climate/pollinator/sustainability project. She grew up in the San Joaquin valley and move you Lake Tahoe as a young adult where her passion and activism for the environment was sparked. After college she designed the region's first, fully integrated sustainable business, lifestyles and education project for communities, businesses and schools, the Tahoe Regional Environmental Education (TREE) Program. About 10 years in, she began to notice drastic changes in weather, and environment and moved to Colorado where she founded Bee Heroic. She currently works throughout the western states.

About Bee Heroic

Bee Heroic was established from the necessity of saving the bees and other pollinators from projected extinction. The bee is one of the roughly 900,000 documented species of insects, but scientists estimate there are about 20 million yet to be documented. Bees - wild and domesticated - are part of the Hymenoptera order of insects which includes among them wasps, flies, ants and others that make up cornerstone insects; but we need all insects for healthy eco and food systems; upon which, human health, economies, and lives, depend. Bee Heroic is an adult focused pollinator and climate project that hosts and joins events throughout the US. Earth's current mass extinction event is rarely mentioned in mainstream media. Because of this, many people do not realize our ecosystems and agriculture are in peril. Current pollinator and ecosystems problems will not wait another generation. As an adult focused project, we work to inform community members - and especially parents - of the primary factors influencing pollinator losses what we can all do to help alleviate and even stop them. Bee Heroic provides information on both the known and unknown factors impacting our pollinator losses and provides resources on how to take meaningful, concise, and immediate action.

Introduction to Food Politics with Marion Nestle

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Chantal - Live Lean Health / Cycles Wellness ) — Mon, 11 Jul 2022 23:00:00 +0000

In this Episode we are getting together with wonderful NYU professor and Author, Marion Nestle, who is "the authority" when it comes to discussing Food Politics, having delved into the subject for over 30 years. Her love for nutrition and food policies help us raise interesting questions and learn that, we must do more and be responsible for our health.

About Marion Nestle

Marion Nestle is Paulette Goddard Professor, of Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health, Emerita, at New York University, which she chaired from 1988-2003 and from which she officially retired in September 2017. She is also Visiting Professor of Nutritional Sciences at Cornell. She earned a Ph.D. in molecular biology and an M.P.H. in public health nutrition from the University of California, Berkeley, and has been awarded honorary degrees from Transylvania University in Kentucky (2012) and from the City University of New York’s Macaulay Honors College (2016).

Among her recent honors are the John Dewey Award for Distinguished Public Service from Bard College in 2010, the Public Health Hero award from the University of California School of Public Health at Berkeley in 2011, the James Beard Foundation Leadership Award in 2013, and the Innovator of the Year Award from the U.S. Healthful Food Council, and the Public Health Association of New York City’s Media Award in 2014. In 2016, her book, Soda Politics, won literary awards from the James Beard Foundation and the International Association of Culinary Professionals (IACP), and she was elected to membership in the Delta Omega Honorary Public Health Society. She was honored with a Trailblazer Award from the IACP, the Grand Dame Award from Les Dames d’Escoffier, and Cherry Bombe’s Hall of Fame in 2018.

She blogs daily (almost) at www.foodpolitics.com, and tweets @marionnestle (named by Time Magazine, Science Magazine, and The Guardian as among the top ten in health and science). She currently has more than 140,000 Twitter followers.

Her impressive CV is available here

Her amazing books, including her latest, Slow Cooked, to be released October 2022, are all available HERE

About SLOW COOKED (Coming October 2022)

Overview: Marion Nestle reflects on her late-in-life career as a world-renowned food politics expert, public health advocate, and founder of the field of food studies following decades of low expectations.

Description: In this engrossing memoir, Marion Nestle reflects on how she achieved late-in-life success as a leading advocate for healthier and more sustainable diets. Slow Cooked tells the story of how she built an unparalleled career at a time when few women worked in the sciences, and came to recognize and reveal the enormous influence of the food industry on our dietary choices.

By the time Marion obtained her doctorate in molecular biology, she had been married since the age of nineteen, dropped out of college, worked as a lab technician, divorced, and become a stay-at-home mom with two children. That’s when she got started. Slow Cooked charts Marion’s astonishing rise from bench scientist to the pinnacles of academia, how she overcame the barriers and biases women of her generation faced, and how she found her life’s purpose after age fifty. Slow Cooked tells her personal story—one that is deeply relevant to everyone who eats and to anyone who thinks it might be too late to follow a passion.

A sustainable way to save the planet with Nick Ritar from Milkwood.net

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Nick Ritar, Milkwood) — Mon, 6 Jun 2022 23:00:00 +0000

In this episode of TGL we explore how to learn skills that can save our planet, allow us to create sustainable living and create communities with like minded people! I speak to Nick Ritar, co-founder of Milkwood, an online platform that teaches people all over the world how to create a sustainable ecosystem in our gardens, on our lands, and grow amazing food too!

Milkwood is dedicated to teaching and sharing permaculture skills, for living like it matters.

It all began in 2007, on a farm in New South Wales, Australia…

Kirsten Bradley, Nick Ritar (and later their kiddo, Ash) started off as just a small crew, when they moved to Nick’s family farm in NSW Australia, in 2006. They built a tiny house and grew some food. This somehow turned into a wild and wonderful, permaculture-farm-school-experiment-thing – called Milkwood.

They welcomed students and teachers from all over the world to their tin-shed classroom during those years, and they all learned a lot!

Fast forward to 2020 – Milkwood has a larger crew of educators, facilitators and doers.

Together, they teach everything from permaculture design to market gardening, natural building and mushroom cultivation, to help create resilient and abundant households and communities.

They do this by providing free online resources & offering world-class training – skills that give students the confidence to create permanently sustainable systems.

Students leave their courses ready and able to design and implement a better future for their families, farms and communities.

Head this way to see all their upcoming courses – and get inspired to live life better…

In this episode I am honoured to be joined by Dr Caldwell Esselstyn Jr MD, a veteran in heart health! We discuss cardiovascular disease and health, and the only way he has seen being healed in his career: low fat whole food plant based diet! His findings might surprise you as he shares that both olive oil and coffee are deterrent to heart health, that heart disease is not genetic and that we start pretty early in life o our path to CVD and we can change that; it is in or power!

The Future of Nutrition- How oversimplifying nutrients has gotten us into trouble, with Dr T. Colin Campbell

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Chantal - Live Lean Health / Cycles Wellness ) — Mon, 16 May 2022 23:00:00 +0000

In episode 12 of The Green Life , I have the privileged to discuss the future of nutrition with the father of Modern Day Plant Based Nutrition, Dr T Colin Campbell. Based on his latest book by the same title, we discuss how oversimplifying nutrients has caused confusion, the negative impact of private financial incentives on food policies and more!

T. Colin Campbell, PhD has been dedicated to the science of human health for more than 60 years. His primary focus is on the association between diet and disease, particularly cancer. Although largely known for the China Study–one of the most comprehensive studies of health and nutrition ever conducted, and recognized by The New York Times as the “Grand Prix of epidemiology”–Dr. Campbell’s profound impact also includes extensive involvement in education, public policy, and laboratory research.

Dr. Campbell grew up on a dairy farm and was the first in his family to go to college, where he studied pre-veterinary medicine at Pennsylvania State University. After obtaining his bachelor’s degree, and while completing his first year at the University of Georgia veterinary school, he received a telegram from a well known professor at Cornell University, offering a scholarship and research opportunity too good to turn down. And so he completed his education at Cornell University (M.S., Ph.D.) and MIT (Research Associate) in nutrition, biochemistry and toxicology. He then spent 10 years on the faculty of Virginia Tech’s Department of Biochemistry and Nutrition before returning to Cornell in 1975 where he presently holds his Endowed Chair as the Jacob Gould Schurman Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry in the Division of Nutritional Sciences.

Dr. Campbell’s research experience includes both laboratory experiments and large-scale human studies. He has received over 70 grant-years of peer-reviewed research funding (mostly with NIH), served on grant review panels of multiple funding agencies, actively participated in the development of national and international nutrition policy, and authored over 350 research papers, most published in peer-reviewed science journals. Throughout his career, he has confronted a great deal of confusion surrounding nutrition and its effects. It is precisely this confusion that he has focused so much on, in recent years.

In order to synthesize the findings of his long and rewarding career, and to give back to the public whose lives are threatened by rampant misinformation and special interests, Dr. Campbell co-wrote The China Study: Startling Implications for Diet, Weight Loss and Long-term Health (2005, 2016), which has sold more than 3 million copies worldwide and has been translated into 50 foreign languages. He is also the author of the The New York Times bestseller Whole (2013), The Low Carb Fraud (2013), and The Future of Nutrition. An Insider’s Look at the Science, Why We Keep Getting It Wrong and How to Start Getting It Right (2020). Several documentary films feature Dr. Campbell and his research, including Forks Over Knives, Eating You Alive, Food Matters, and PlantPure Nation. He continues to share evidence-based information on health and nutrition whenever given the opportunity. He has delivered hundreds of lectures around the world and he is the founder of the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies and the online Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate in partnership with eCornell.

Getting the glow - Healthy and Happy skin for everyone with Maria Marlowe

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Maria Marlowe) — Mon, 9 May 2022 23:00:00 +0000

In today's episode we are discussing how we can get a healthy and glowing skin, naturally, and how the old fashion approach dermatologists take is not serving us much. Maria Marlowe dives into what acne is, and is not, and breaks down some of the misconceptions associated with this condition to empower women and men to heal they body and find that their skin too can be clear and glowing!

About Maria

Since 2012, Maria has coached thousands of clients on how to upgrade their health, by upgrading their diet, including celebrities, politicians, and top business executives. Now, she exclusively offers online classes and meal plans to help people use food as medicine and to clear their skin from acne and other issues.

Maria struggled with acne for years, despite trying just about every over-the-counter and prescription acne treatment out there. Nothing worked.

She was certain that she was cursed with either bad luck, bad genes, or bad karma. But it turned out, she simply had a bad diet.

She discovered the power of food as medicine, drastically overhauled her diet, and lo and behold, her skin completely cleared up in a matter of months.

She vowed to share this important information, left a career in finance to study cooking and nutrition, and became a holistic nutritionist.

That’s how she came to be known as the Acne Nutritionist, and why she created Glow by Marlowe.

Kahn's Centre for Cardiac Longevity

Preventing Cardiovascular Disease with Dr Joel Kahn

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Dr Joel Kahn MD) — Mon, 2 May 2022 23:00:00 +0000

In this episode of The Green Life, I am joined by one of the World's leading cardiologists and best selling authors, Dr Joel Kahn MD, to discuss the importance of Cardiovascular Health and the way to prevent dealign with heart disease through a healthy , planet based diet. Welcome Dr Kahn

About Dr Kahn

At his core, Dr. Joel Kahn believes that plant-based nutrition is the most powerful source of preventative medicine on the planet. Having practiced traditional cardiology since 1983, it was only after his own commitment to a plant based vegan diet that he truly began to delve into the realm of non-traditional diagnostic tools, prevention tactics and nutrition-based recovery protocols. These ideologies led him to change his approach and focus on being a holistic cardiologist. He passionately lectures throughout the country about the health benefits of a plant-based anti-aging diet inspiring a new generation of thought leaders to think scientifically and critically about the body’s ability to heal itself through proper nutrition.

One of the world’s top cardiologists, Dr. Joel Kahn has treated thousands of acute heart attacks during his career. He’d like all that to stop. He’d like to prevent ALL future heart attacks by breaking through to the public to educate and inspire a new holistic lifestyle. Now is the time to focus on educating the public to eat clean, sweat clean and apply cutting edge science to their lifestyle.

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Zoë Lind van't Hof, Tom Smale) — Mon, 25 Apr 2022 23:00:00 +0000

In this episode, we explore the importance of the impact of brands on people and planet. Not just for the consumers, but at the very beginning of the chain, the farmers, in this case. We discuss the impact on the soil and overall planet and how this brand, Wunder Workshop, set up a blueprint in how business should be conducted; by having a personal relationship with the producers, as well as supporting communities.

Wunder Workshop creates products for the People & Planet. They focus on Consumption With Purpose®, by harvesting the power of regeneratively grown plants for the ultimate wellness rituals. Wunder translates to miracle, and they focus on plants that have a quality that can be classed as such.

Set up by Tom & Zoe in 2014, Wunder Workshop is inspired by intuitive herbalism and Ayurveda - in particular, the preventative and holistic approach that this ancient medical system uses to maintain optimal physical and mental health.

As conscious citizens themselves, all the decisions they make at Wunder Workshop are based on a set of ethical and sustainable values to promote a transparent relationship between grower and consumer.

In keeping these values, they source functional ingredients to create products with integrity and purpose. Their full-circle approach to their products, maintains that the farmers, the environment, soil health and customers are in mind at every stage, from growing to the final sip.

Watch their story HERE

Meet Tom and Zoe

Zoë Lind van't Hof / FOUNDER

Zoe learned about health and nutrition from her late mother, who had been in the wellbeing industry for over 40 years. This meant she grew up plant-based, surrounded by botanicals, developing her own intuitive herbalism, foraging and growing organic food was the daily norm. This knowledge and motivation has led her to start up her own business.

Having travelled with her late mother to Sri Lanka to experience and learn more about Ayurveda, Zoe learned about turmeric and its benefits. A couple of years after finishing her Masters degree in International Relations with a thesis on Climate Change, she went back to Sri Lanka to establish a partnership with the suppliers of our most crucial ingredient, Turmeric, and begin her journey to starting Wunder Workshop.

Tom Smale / CO-FOUNDER

Tom came across a significant body of research supporting turmeric and curcumin when studying pharmacology.Seeing the role that plants have in the medical world he was keen to learn more. Plus, havingworked in the medical world for a number of years, Tom was convinced that there was a better way to approach our wellbeing.

Speaking about the power of plants and the way they interact with our body is Tom's focus. Using the experience gained in the pharmacological world and a deepening understanding of traditional plant-based remedies, he helps to research ingredients that are functional and effective. Tom is also a passionate plant-based cook, sourdough baking enthusiast and cyclist.

In this episode, I speak to a true community leader ! Ivone Apolonario is not an online community celebrity but a grass root, local leader who has taken it upon herself to change the future of her country with a simple step: by educating children in a different way!

The Truth about Cancer with Dr Amorim

chantal@liveleanhealth.com (Dr Andre Amorim) — Mon, 11 Apr 2022 23:00:00 +0000

In Episode 7 of the Green Life I have a guest I know, trust and can totally vouch for , as he is my own integrative Physician. Dr Andre Amorim is a classically trained MD who breached the gap between allopathic and natural medicine. In this episode we discuss the scary C word: Cancer! The truth about Cancer is that it is NOT a death sentence; but we need to know what to do and take responsibility or our health, to only in the face of a diagnosis, rather in a preventive manner.

Since his early years, Dr. Amorim has been an enthusiastic proponent for a more natural approach to health and life. Following his medical training, Dr. Amorim expanded his knowledge and practice into complementary areas, such as Naturopathy, Orthomolecular Nutrition, Phytotherapy, Thermography, Ozone Therapy, Dark Field Microscopy, Microphysiotherapy, among others.

In addition to his medical credentials, Dr. Amorim is also a certified Yoga practitioner and teacher, seeking (whenever possible) to incorporate yoga’s more subtle dimension into his personal and professional life.

In his practice, he approaches patients in a holistic and integrative way; assessing each as a whole and trying to focus the treatment on the root cause of the problem, not just the control of symptoms.

He is currently the director of the Naturena Integrative Clinic, a health and wellness space where, in addition to Integrative Medicine consultations, he conducts lectures, workshops, retreats and other programs in the scope of Natural Health and Personal Development.

He recently released his book “The Transforming Power of Fasting” (only in Portuguese for the time being), a combination of extensive research as well as his personal and clinical experience with fasting. This book stands out for its comprehensive approach to health - promoting Therapeutic Fasting as an ancient, natural, and scientific healing method that is easily accessible to all.
