SHOW INTRODUCTION:

There’s so much media and hype these days around a plant-based diet that I wanted to have a guest to help you, if you want to get started.

No one diet is right for everyone, but typically the hardest thing in starting a dietary change is knowing what in the world to eat…which is why I was so excited to have the plant-based expert Dr. Neal D. Barnard on the show.

I thought of my parents when recording this one; I know how hard of a challenge it’s been for my dad to incorporate a green smoothie into his daily routine. But he’s done so, and I couldn’t be prouder of him.

If you’re looking to up your nutrition and round the corner with your health, then this show may be for you.

I hope you enjoy the interview and the food, too!!! WOO HOO!!!

The Physicians Committee also provides direct medical care through its subsidiary, Barnard Medical Center. Dr. Barnard works with patients with diabetes, obesity, and other chronic conditions in clinical research studies aiming to improve the prevention and treatment of these health problems.

He is an active member of the Medical Society of the District of Columbia, the American Medical Association, and other organizations working to improve health and medical care.

Growing up in Fargo, N.D., his extended family includes both doctors and cattle ranchers, two groups that are increasingly butting heads over America’s health policies. Dr. Barnard’s scientific approach aims to shed new light on these important issues.
