Farm-based Healthcare with Dr. Ron Weiss - PTP303 May 14, 2019

Show notes

In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast, we talk with Dr. Ron Weiss about farm-based healthcare. Have you ever hear that term before? Dr. Weiss's approach to prescriptions is not what you would get from a conventional medical doctor today, but it's right in line with what we love here at Plant Trainers. You'll hear how his dad's health had a lot to do with him ditching the Medical Building practice and heading out to the farm for a more holistic, lifestyle medicine approach where he can grow his own medicine. And no, we are not talking about the newly legalized drugs here in Canada...we are talking about edible plants you'd find in the grocery store, only better. With tons of research and devotion to evidence-based farming and regenerative organic agriculture, Dr. Weiss and his team is making a new category in the medical field (see what we did there...field…). You'll want to listen to the end as he shares his 5 pillars of lifestyle medicine that will make you want to book a getaway to see the land or at least get started in your own home today. This episode is great for anyone, so type plantrainers.com/303 into your Facebook and Instagram feeds right now and share away! Ron Weiss, MD is a physician and farmer. He is the founder of Ethos Health, a farm-based healthcare system that connects human health to the natural world and promotes mindful, healthy ways of living. At the center of this system is Ethos Farm, a historic 342-acre working farm in Long Valley, NJ which grows produce using regenerative methods. These "living medicines" are used as part of an evidence-based diet of whole plant foods to reverse and prevent chronic disease. Dr. Weiss, who practices and teaches lifestyle medicine in an old wooden farmhouse right in the middle of the growing fields, is the Assistant Professor of Clinical Medicine at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School. In this episode we discuss: New Jersey His plant-based journey His research study in university The impact of his father's pancreatic cancer Macrobiotic diet Managing disease vs healing patients Using farming to help patients Evidence-based farming and medicine The land and water makes a difference Not all kale is created equal Regenerative agriculture A weird place to treat patients 5 pillars of lifestyle medicine Influencing other doctors Actionable tips to getting started with plant-based Links to things we mentioned: Yummy Foods Activity Book For Kids Easy Recipes For Busy Parents Dr. Ron Weiss - Ethos Health, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter Forks Over Knives Dr. Greger's Daily Dozen - PTP069 How Not To Die with Michael Greger M.D. – PTP206 A Forefather of Plant-Based Nutrition, Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn – PTP208 Undo It!: How Simple Lifestyle Changes Can Reverse Most Chronic Diseases with Dean Ornish M.D. – PTP295 Heart Disease Impacts Us All with Dr Shane Williams – PTP296 Nutritionfacts.org Find a doctor in your area Thank you to this month's Patrons for supporting us on Patreon: "Joe" Millie Pearson Mary Lou Fusi Carmen Fanous Emily Iaconelli Spanish Armada Michele Olender Don't forget to contact us at info@planttrainers.com with your questions!

The World's Most Powerful Superfoods with Catharine Arnston – PTP302 May 07, 2019

Show notes

In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast, we talk with Catharine Arnston all about the world's most powerful superfoods, algae. Catharine has been on the show way back on episode 11 when we talked about the very basics of algae. This time we take it a step further and talk about its properties, the history of why it's so popular in Asia and we also talk about the new Algae Agricultural Act. We want you to make sure that if you are going to buy chlorella or spirulina that it is pure and safe. Catharine also shares some recipes to help you get in the goodness in fun ways. We personally use Catharine's ENERGYBits and Recovery bits at home. One of our favourite things to do is chew them up and take selfies. Catharine is an accomplished CEO and Health Educator. She grew up in Canada and has lived in the USA since finishing her MBA 30 years ago. Catharine founded the algae tablet company ENERGYbits in Boston MA ten years ago after her younger sister in Canada was diagnosed with breast cancer and advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would be important for her healing. Catharine helped her sister research what foods she should eat and in the process, learned about the healing properties of plant-based nutrition. This ultimately led Catharine to algae – the most nutrient dense, alkaline plant in the world with vast healing properties, all of which were unknown outside of Asia. Catharine has spent the last ten years researching algae and educating consumers, athletes and wellness professionals about algae and its therapeutic benefits. Now considered the country's leading expert on algae nutrition, Catharine is a sought after speaker at health, wellness and fitness conferences as well as practitioner and nutrition conferences and is a frequent guest on podcasts and television. In this episode we discuss: Origin story Shark Tank Spirulina and Chlorella Vitamin K2 Why is it so popular in Asia Algae Agricultural Act, 2019 How to make sure it is pure How ENERGYBits are made Recipes Kids Links to things we mentioned: ENERGYbits Website – discount code for 20% off – use "planttrainers" at checkout Catharine Arnston – Instagram, Facebook, Twitter ENERGYbits Founder Catharine Arnston – PTP011 Thank you to this month's Patrons for supporting us on Patreon: "Joe" Millie Pearson Mary Lou Fusi Carmen Fanous Emily Iaconelli Spanish Armada Michele Olender Don't forget to contact us at info@planttrainers.com with your questions!

In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast, we talk with Dr. Pam Popper, known for her no-nonsense videos and blogs that busts myths and tells the science-based truth. We get into the idea of ADHD, and how so many children are medicated but more importantly IF that medication is actually working and IF the RISK outweighs the BENEFITS.

Do you know that there are other lifestyle skills you can apply to get better results without the scary side effects? This episode is really important as we give you an understanding of what questions you need to ask your doctor before starting a medical protocol to protect yourself. We also cover if mammograms are important and if she supports illness fundraisers like "Run for The Cure". You'll also find out if Dr. Popper had bad habits and what they were. It will knock your socks off. This is an episode you'd want to share with anyone with school-aged kids, kids with ADHD or someone about to go get their mammogram.

Childhood Obesity and Weight Loss Therapy with Dr. Mondo – PTP297 Apr 02, 2019

Show notes

In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast, we talk with Dr. Mondo, a weight loss therapist about the one thing that puts yo-yo dieting to an end and makes the change permanent once and for all, and he knows because he has been there. We discuss how being the fat kid is almost like being an illusionist, how emotional eating is something that affects more people then you may think and how gender norms may play into obesity as well. What we found so profound is Dr. Mondo's message to the overweight person, but also their parents. This show is so important for any parent to hear. So please share by cutting and pasting this link into an email or message for those you love or post it out right on your social media page. Dr. Mondo is a Licensed Psychotherapist, Professor and Academic Researcher who conducted the first psychological research with former contestants of NBC's The Biggest Loser. In his research, Dr. Mondo discovered a lack of addressing the emotional and psychological aspects of weight loss was a key contributing factor in explaining why nearly 95% of people regain all the weight back after drastic weight loss. Dr. Mondo is on a mission to transform how the medical field supports people during weight loss. His online program "Rewriting My Story With Dr. Mondo" is quickly becoming a go-to resource for people to help address this often neglected side of weight loss. In this episode we discuss: The internet Loving yourself The funny fat kid/guy Being an illusionist Yo-yo dieting The defining moment A long term solution Emotional eating Gender Norms Being intentional with our children for celebration and sadness Smell Addictive personality A message to the kids who are overweight A message to the parents of the "Fat Funny Kid" Links to things we mentioned: Our Instagram Our T-shirts Dr. Mondo – Website, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter Facebook Live Show, Re-Writing My Story with Dr. Mondo Childhood Obesity – PTP039 Thank you to this month's Patrons for supporting us on Patreon: "Joe" Millie Pearson Mary Lou Fusi Carmen Fanous Emily Iaconelli Spanish Armada Michele Olender Don't forget to contact us at info@planttrainers.com with your questions!

Heart Disease Impacts Us All with Dr Shane Williams – PTP296 Mar 26, 2019

Show notes

In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast, we talk with Dr. Shane Williams about how heart disease impacts us all, even your cardiologist. That's because the #1 killer of cardiologists or any doctor is actually heart disease. This is cause for alarm but we know many cardiologists who have it all figured out. We love how Dr. Williams found a plant-based diet. It's actually quite unique from any other story we have heard before. We guess you can say it was pure chance. We take some time to talk about cholesterol, hypertension, sugars, salt, and oils on some pretty easy to understand terms. He also walks us through his system for helping his patients get on board for compliance with a plant-based diet. This is definitely something you can share with your health care provider as they may be able to relate to his personal story or even duplicate his system. Born and raised in Newfoundland, Dr. W. Shane Williams attended Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN) in St. John's where he obtained his Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy [BSc (Pharm)] being selected as class valedictorian in 1995. He then completed his 4 year Doctor of Medicine (MD) and 3-year post-graduate fellowship program in Internal Medicine at Memorial as well. He went on complete a 3-year Cardiology Subspecialty Fellowship at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario and in 2008 moved to Muskoka, Ontario to open his private practice in Cardiology and Internal Medicine. He's lectured at plant-based conferences, hosted many week-long immersion programs locally as well as a 10 day 'Plant-based Immersion Summit' in the Caribbean with Drs. Campbell and Esselstyn along with other leaders in the field. He's passionate about bringing this information to as many people as possible so they too can become empowered to both safeguard and improve their health. In this episode we discuss: The China Study Losing 22 pounds #1 killer of doctors The Canadian plant-based movement amongst doctors Sugars Salt Oils How to help patients learn more about a plant-based lifestyle How to help people learn how to start cooking plant-based Hypertension Cholesterol Is 100% compliance necessary?

The Pros and Cons of Canada's Food Guide – PTP294 Mar 12, 2019

Show notes

In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast, we talk all about Canada's Food Guide. As you may know, in January (2019) Canada's Food Guide made some pretty bold changes and statements that we are excited to share with you. And since March is nutrition month (isn't every month nutrition month around here?) we thought this would be a great time to talk about what we liked, what we didn't like and what's really going on behind the scenes. Canada's Food Guide had not been updated in many years and the way Canadians learned about nutrition was, well, kind of, not with the times. With new updates, Canada's Food Guide promoted a healthier lifestyle and has become much more well rounded. It takes into account not just eating more plants (this is huge), but increasing water intake as well as the importance of daily movement. Find out our detailed perspective in this episode. And of course, it wouldn't be The Plant Trainers Podcast without actionable tips…so we have some great swaps you can start using or share with your friends and family! We would love to see you joining the conversations on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter @planttrainers. In this episode we discuss: How Canada's Food Guide has changed Celebrations The main focus of the guide Healthy living Plant-based options Downfalls Eat more plant Easy plant-based swaps you can add in today Links to things we mentioned: Yummy Foods Activity Book For Kids Easy Recipes For Busy Parents Our recipes Canada's Food Guide – old cover, new cover Learn more about the guide Thank you to this month's Patrons for supporting us on Patreon: "Joe" Millie Pearson Mary Lou Fusi Carmen Fanous Emily Iaconelli Spanish Armada Michele Olender Don't forget to contact us at info@planttrainers.com with your questions!
