What if there was an evidenced-based, food-as-medicine protocol for kick-starting weight-loss and keeping it off permanently?


That's what my guest, Dr. Neal Barnard is back on the show to discuss!


To remind you, Dr. Barnard is President of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and was featured in Forks Over Knives, What The Health, Plant Pure Nation, Supersize Me, and many more incredible films, and has been a guest on this podcast probably 4-5 times now.


His brand new book, The Power Foods Diet: The Breakthrough Plan That Traps, Tames, and Burns Calories for Easy and Permanent Weight Loss just released Tuesday, I was honored to get a copy and I am just pouring over every single word.


Weight loss is one of our top health concerns, so much so that we keep looking for good ways to lose weight, preferably a way that is easy, effective, and permanent. It turns out that, when properly  chosen, certain foods cause weight loss, with no need for the deprivation and planning that most weight-loss regimens require. 


In the book, Dr. Barnard reveals three breakthroughs that are supported by research, revealing that certain foods:

1.  can reduce the appetite

2.  trap calories so they are flushed away and cannot be absorbed, and,

3.  increase the body’s ability to burn calories for about three hours after each meal. 


These breakthroughs make weight loss incredibly easy, without calorie counting or deprivation. This diet encourages people to eat, not to stop eating. Dr. Barnard also reveals that some of the foods we think are good for us can actually be harmful, like salmon, goat cheese, and coconut oil, all of which pass easily into body fat...and often overstay their welcome. 


To make it easy, Dr. Barnard includes a simple to follow meal plan that includes delicious, and even indulgent plant-based recipes which include foods we have often been told to avoid, like potatoes and pasta, so you can eat real food, and still lose real weight.

Everyone wants to slow down the signs of aging, but very few people are going about it the right way. The negative aspects of aging are one of the most ubiquitous challenges to quality of life. Scientists believe that part of the reason we experience aging the way we do is because of stressed or worn-out cells called senescent cells.* 

Qualia Senolytic combines our legendary “complexity science” formulation approach with science-backed ingredients shown to help decrease senescent cells. Its goals are similar to those of pruning a plant: support efficient use of cellular resources, encourage the regeneration of more youthful cells, and ultimately support tissue health and appearance—promoting whole-body cellular rejuvenation.

Today it's time for another edition of the Food Heals book Club. It's been awhile since have done one of these so to remind you this is where I read chapters from my book, Food Heals: Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Stories to Nourish Your Soul and Transform Your Health


And if you haven't read the book, it's like an anthology of Food Heals stories similar to Chicken Soup For The Soul. I put together a collection of healing stories with the intention to inspire readers that the body is designed to heal itself if given the tools that it needs to do so!


On today's episode we've got chapters 18-21:

Chapter 18:

Why Ulcerative Colitis is The Best Thing That Happened to Me

By Vince Lia


Chapter 19:

Dying to Be Pretty: Healing from Breast Implant Illness and Putting Health Before Vanity

By Christina Roulund 


Chapter 20:

Food Heals The Soul

Marina Yanay-Triner


Chapter 21:

Healing Our Body By Healing Our Soul

Kristie Reeves


About Food Heals:

Witnessing her mother and father — in short succession — lose their lives to cancer, Allison Melody endured significant trauma in her 20s. Why did their bodies fail them? Why did the doctors have no answers? This tragic loss instilled in Allison an unwavering passion for nutrition and propelled her into the world of holistic health and healing. She vowed to honor her parents’ memory by dedicating her life to finding a way to heal the body naturally.

After interviewing hundreds who have healed themselves of chronic and degenerative diseases for her film Powered By Plants and podcast Food Heals, Allison now firmly believes that the body has the ability to heal itself when given the tools it needs to do so.

The intimate and uplifting true stories in this book are a must-read for anyone who is dealing with disease, stress, or any health imbalance and is looking for motivation, education, and inspiration to take their physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being into their own hands.


If you are enjoying listening to these stories and you'd like to get a physical copy of the book into your hands, or as a gift for a loved one who may be struggling with their health right now, you can get the book on Amazon or at www.foodhealsnation.com/book. And when I am done recording these stories for you, Food Heals Nation, then the book will be available on Audible as well!


Thank you for being a part of this beautiful journey with me!
