Summary
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.

| 0:00.0 | The reason diets, quote unquote, don't work is that if you've ever talked to anybody that's |
| 0:06.1 | on a diet, they just talk about what they can have anymore. |
| 0:08.8 | And when you do that, you really do feature yourself because the first thing that you do |
| 0:13.8 | when you come off that diet is that's the thing you can't wait to the vow. |
| 0:17.6 | So you can't look back, you have to look forward, and that's why diets don't work. |
| 0:22.0 | And so I talk a lot about focusing forward about the new energy you're going to have, the |

| 1:24.1 | It is impossible to speak with Shira and not become excited. |
| 1:29.6 | You just kind of get lost in what it is that she's saying and then you're so revved up |
