Summary

Dr. Joel Fuhrman, a pioneer in plant-based nutrition, discusses the power of nutrition in preventing diseases and promoting overall health.

Since his first book in 1996, Dr. Joel Fuhrman has been teaching people how to Eat to Live with his Nutritarian approach to eating.

Today, Rip and Dr. Fuhrman focus their conversation around his most recent book, 2020’s Eat for Life and the importance of micronutrients and phytochemicals like greens, beans, onions, berries and mushrooms to slow down aging, prevent and reverse diabetes and heart-disease, lower cholesterol and blood pressure, and reduce hunger and food cravings.

The interview also highlights small health-promoting habits, G-BOMBS in meals, eliminating salt, and distinguishing true hunger from toxic hunger.

Dr. Fuhrman, like so many of the legendary plant-based physicians, has been unwavering in his beliefs and practice for decades and that’s why it’s an honor to welcome him to the PLANTSTRONG Podcast.

0:00.0	I'm Ray Besselston and you're listening to the Plan Strong podcast.
0:06.1	Since his first book came out in 1996, Dr. Joel Furman has been changing the way people think about food and teaching people truly
0:17.0	how to eat to live with this nutritarian approach to eating.
0:22.4	For the first time, I welcome Dr. Joel Furman to the Plant Strong Podcast, right after this message.
0:31.0	Have you ever considered the impact of whole grains on your daily
0:35.8	energy levels? Introducing Plant Strong's whole grain, oil-free, no refined sugar granola, a clean labeled breakfast option that keeps you

0:50.3	We have four incredible varieties, dark chocolate, all American apple pie, crisp mixed

1:57.0	specifically because he was interested in nutrition and knew from the get-go that he wanted to work with patients using
2:06.0	smart nutrition as his primary form of medicine. He's written 12 books including the Seminole Eat to Live, which was published
