Hey everybody, it's Chris. I've got another interview for you today with Dr. Ruby Lathen.

She's an engineer turned holistic nutritionist after healing herself of thyroid cancer.

And guess what she did to help herself heal? She radically changed her diet and lifestyle,

adopted a plant-based diet. She was featured in the documentary What the Health,

which is a favorite of mine. If you haven't seen it, you definitely should. And she's in

a new documentary coming up called They're Trying to Kill Us, which we'll talk about. Who

is they? Dr. Layton served as the nutrition policy manager at the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine,

where she developed and led a national grassroots campaign to advocate legislation for a more helpful plant-based meal options in the National School Lunch Program.

That's a good thing.

And she's the host of the veggie chest,

the plant-based cooking show, aired on Washington's V-C-TV. So Dr. Ruby Lathen, good to see you.

You look great. Glad to have you. Yeah, glad to be here. And I just appreciate the work

you're doing and glad to chat with you today.

Well, I'm excited to share your story because I have a big audience of people who,

some of them have cancer and they're trying to heal and others are very serious about prevention

and they want to prevent cancer and heart disease and diabetes. They want to prevent these

killing killers, reading causes

of death in most Western countries. And so I'd love for you to tell your story. How did you get

into nutrition? Did the viral cancer diagnosis come first? Yeah, the cancer diagnosis came first.

I mean, I thought I was eating pretty healthy, you know, before the diagnosis.

You know, I was mostly vegetarian.

But I wasn't a big label reader at all.
