Expert Advice for Preventing Alzheimer's Disease: Diet Matters | Dr. Neal Barnard Live Q&A Oct 20, 2022

Show notes

Preventing Alzheimer's disease has never been more important.

With cases expected to triple over the next 30 years, Dr. Neal Barnard shares the steps you can take to lower your risk of being diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. He shares the foods that are most likely to cause it and those that can help protect your brain.

Headlines read "Diet Doesn't Matter" for your risk of developing dementia, but they are misleading.

Dr. Barnard joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll with his expert advice for preventing Alzheimer's disease and keeping your mind functioning at a high level throughout your golden years.

Dr. Barnard also answers questions sent to the Doctor's Mailbag.

- Do you need to eat for your blood type?

- How many tomatoes can you eat safely in a day?

- Are you too thin or has our perception of "normal" changed?

- And many more!

This episode of The Exam Room™ Podcast is sponsored by The Gregory J. Reiter Memorial Fund, which supports organizations like the Physicians Committee that carry on Greg's passion and love for animals through rescue efforts, veganism, and wildlife conservation.

Show notes

Alison Tierney has devoted her life to helping others with cancer. Now it is her turn, and she has advice and tips for others as she battles breast cancer.

Alison shares her emotional journey with "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast.

Plus, Dr. Kristi Funk puts the power to prevent breast cancer back in your hands, because this disease is more than just genetics. The greatest risk appears to come from choices that you have the power to control.

Dr. Funk details the simple everyday choices that women can make to reduce their cancer risk to just a fraction of the average person. She also unleashes the power of new research that can help guide you to make the healthiest decisions possible.

Just 13% of women with breast cancer also have a close relative diagnosed with the disease. The time to put the power in your hands is now.

Nuts: How Much Should You Eat? What Type? | Dr. Neal Barnard Live Q&A Oct 13, 2022

Show notes

Nuts are so easy to overeat! While they can be part of a healthy diet and are naturally packed with protein, they're also loaded with fat.

That can be a real problem as you enjoy handful after handful or spread on ultrathick layers of peanut or almond butter. It's like you just can't stop yourself, but what does a regular serving size look like?

Find out some tips for controlling your cravings and getting the portions under control when Dr. Neal Barnard joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room LIVE.

Dr. Barnard also answers questions sent to the Doctor's Mailbag.

- What is the healthiest nut?

- Should you eat nuts every day?

- What type of peanut butter is best?

- Can you eat nuts and still lose weight?

Plus, like a jar of mixed nuts, there's a little bit of nutrition information about everything else in the show too.

Thyroid Cancer Survivor, Breast Cancer Thriver: Diandra Fields' Story of Hope Oct 04, 2022

Show notes

Ten years after being diagnosed with thyroid cancer, Diandra Fields was dealt a second blow. Doctors again told her that she had cancer, this time in her breast.

While she is still in the fight, it is one she says she is winning, and she credits her devotion to eating a plant-based diet for helping her in this battle.

Why a plant-based diet? As someone with a master's degree in molecular biology, for Diandra, it all comes down to evidence-based science. And she knew the challenges she would face and is helping to teach the team of doctors who are overseeing her care.

She joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to share her journey for the first time with the hope that she can help others who are in the trenches with her. Her optimism, enthusiasm, and smarts will certainly be that beacon of hope.

Diet Scores Ranked: The Vegan Effect | Dr. Hana Kahleova Sep 27, 2022

Show notes

Diet scores have been ranked and researchers have calculated how much healthier your own diet could be by going vegan!

The scores reveal what happened when more than 200 people stopped eating meat and dairy and began eating an exclusively plant-based diet that is low in fat. While we have known for decades that eating more fruits and vegetables is healthy, this study shows precisely how big of an impact it can have.

The study also reveals the number one predictor for weight loss, and it's not going to the gym! There is one type of food that prevented people from shedding unwanted pounds more than any other.

Lead researcher Dr. Hana Kahleova joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to talk about the findings and how they can be used to improve your health.

Dr. Vanita Rahman then returns to The Exam Room to share details on her new program for fighting hot flashes and how much better you might feel within a matter of weeks just by changing your diet.

Plus, Chuck reports on an alarming study for milk lovers that shows a connection between poor health and dairy consumption among heart disease patients.
