Milky White Lies: Fact Checking Dairy | Dr. Neal Barnard and Susan Levin, RD Jun 29, 2021

Show notes

We are led to believe that dairy is the ultimate source for calcium, vitamin D and protein. It is essential for strong bones and without it you'd be as fragile as glass. Your health depends so much on dairy that there is a food group devoted exclusively to it.

But have we been misled?

"The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll is joined by Dr. Neal Barnard and dietitian Susan Levin to review the major health claims being touted about milk! They hop on the National Dairy Council website and go over them one by one. All claims are put under the microscope! Everything from bone health to diabetes, heart disease, inflammation, high blood pressure, immune function, gut health, and protein will get a close look.

They have the research to separate fact from milky white lies.

Plus, Chuck reports on a study that finds vegan diets are optimal for growth in children.

Joyful, Delicious, Vegan: The Sherra Aguirre Story Jun 15, 2021

Show notes

Sherra Aguirre is well into her senior years, but feels as fit and healthy as someone in their 30's!

She shares her journey back to health when she joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room™. Years of eating fast food every day were beginning to catch up with her. Her energy dropped while her blood pressure went sky high. Sherra's heart health was suffering just like many of her family members before her.

But after Sherra changed her eating habits and kicked fast food to the curb, she was able to reverse her symptoms of heart disease, including an enlarged heart!

Today, the entrepreneur turned author is inspiring others struggling with their health with her book Joyful, Delicious, Vegan: Life Without Heart Disease.

Plus, Chuck reports on a study on how effective a plant-based diet can be in limiting severe symptoms of COVID-19 while those eating a high protein, low carbohydrate diet are at far greater risk.
