If you encountered a physician that dismissed you when you brought up the question of nutrition, who had an abysmal ignorance on the importance of what you are eating, on behalf of my profession, I apologize to you. The state of nutritional awareness among my profession is an embarrassment and we are working hard to reverse that.” -Michael Klaper, MD

Dr. Michael Klaper is an internationally renowned health and wellness educator. He has been a plant-based medical doctor for 39 years. He has written multiple books, produced numerous health videos and webinars, and authored dozens of articles for both scientific journals and the popular press.

Dr. Klaper served on staff at the TrueNorth Health Center for many years and is now spearheading Moving Medicine Forward, an initiative focused on educating medical students on plant-based nutrition to prevent and reverse chronic disease.

In our interview we talk about the incredible benefits of fasting, the True North medically supervised fasting protocol, how animal protein fuels cancer growth, fad diets like the ketogenic and carnivore diets, his opinion on sugar, salt and oils, and so much more.

I’ve been an admirer of Dr. Klaper for many years and it was a thrill to finally meet him in person! I know you will enjoy this interview with the brilliant Dr. Michael Klaper, filmed in my cabin on the Holistic Holiday at Sea cruise in February 2020.
