Description

Doctors may soon be prescribing plants instead of pills to treat arthritis. On this episode of The Exam Room™, “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll is joined by Dr. Hana Kahleova to discuss why people with rheumatoid arthritis are turning to a vegan diet. Her team of researchers examined scores of studies on the topic and published a review showing very promising results. In fact, Dr. Kahleova says that there have been cases where patients have completely reversed RA after adopting a plant-based diet! That’s sweet relief for the millions living with the disorder who have painfully inflamed and in many cases crippled joints. Chuck is also joined by Melissa Sherlock who is a mover and shaker in a town made famous by its steak. She’s finding that her meat heavy town also has big appetite for plants! She’s changing lives and changing minds one class at a time as a Food For Life instructor even when lifelong meat eaters come in vowing not to change. Through nutrition science, recipes, and a healthy dose of fun, Melissa is showing that beef is not what’s for dinner! --- --- Rheumatoid Arthritis Study http://bit.ly/RAStudyVegan --- --- Sherlock Tru Health Classes: http://sherlocktruhealth.com --- --- Apply To Be FFL Instructor http://FFLTraining.org --- --- Chuck Carroll Twitter: @ChuckCarrollWLC IG: @ChuckCarrollWLC --- --- Physicians Committee Twitter: @PCRM IG: @PhysiciansCommittee --- --- Share the Show Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or many other podcast providers.
