    Description

    In Episode 71 I sit down with one of the pioneers of Lifestyle Medicine, Dr Dean Ornish. Dr Ornish is most well known for the Randomised Controlled Trial 'The Lifestyle Heart Trial' where he was able to show that cardiovascular disease could not just be halted in its tracks, but in many cases, actually reversed. In this exchange, that took place in Sausalito at Dean's office, we talk about why we see such a high incidence of Chronic Disease in Western populations and the steps that you can take in order to genuinely take control of your health.Specifically we cover:Dean's personal life & pathway into MedicineHis very first clinical trialThe Lifestyle Heart Trial and what we can learn from the intervention and resultsWhat's causing cardiovascular disease in the first place - why do some people refute the findings associating saturated fat & LDL cholesterol with cardiovascular disease?The Atkin's, Keto & Paleo dietsTMAO & cardiovascular diseaseHealthy eating habits - What Dr Dean Ornish uses clinically and believes is the healthiest human diet in the worldWeight loss - what various approaches fail to addressJoy of living versus fear of dyingHis research on Alzheimer's & lifestyle interventionsand much moreRESOURCES:Lifestyle Heart Trial5 year lifestyle intervention trial Undo It by Dr Dean & Ann OrnishIf you enjoyed the episode and have a spare 1-2 minutes please leave a review on iTunes so the Plant Proof podcast ranks higher and becomes more discoverable for other listeners.

    Join show host and nutritionist Simon Hill as he sits down with doctors, nutritionists, dieticians, athletes and inspiring people challenging the status quo and making positive change in the world. By breaking down the science, and listening to their stories and wisdom, together we can become more mindful and conscious of how we are living and the impact our food choices have on our health, the planet's health and all of those that we share it with. Importantly, in a world where diet has become very divisive Simon has created a safe space to talk about nutrition without judgement. Eat meat or dairy? That's perfectly fine! Contrary to the stereotypical view of vegans, Simon encourages celebration of anyone taking the time to learn more about the food they put other plate. It's not an all or nothing move. While this show is very much about bringing out the knowledge of the wonderful guests it's also good to know you are in good hands - Simon has a Bachelors degree in Physiotherapy, a Masters degree in Nutrition, is Certified in Plant Based Nutrition and is committed to bringing you agenda free information. In addition Simon is writing a book that will be published by Penguin early 2021 - with 100% of his proceeds being donated to charities selected by the Plant Proof community. To connect with Simon on socials you can find him on Instagram and Twitter @plant_proof.
