Summary
The first family of plant-based eating is back!
Ann Crile Esselstyn and Jane Esselstyn join "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll for one of the most lively interviews ever featured on The Exam Room™ Podcast.
The mother and daughter talk about what it means to be a plant-based woman warrior and the inspiration for their cookbook. Jane explains their recipe creation process while Ann talks about the amazing amount of energy she still has well into her golden years. She does more in a day than most women half her age!
Ann also talks about the evolution of the family's diet and the surprising menu they ate the night before her wedding to Caldwell Esselstyn years before his landmark research.
Most importantly, there is a sense of empowerment, hope, and knowledge that they bring that can inspire women no matter where they are in life or with their health.
