Have you ever considered that the ailments, health problems, and weight gain you are experiencing could all be a result of your diet? I know, you eat a fairly healthy diet but you may still eat foods that trigger menstrual cramps, polycystic ovaries, diabetes, thyroid issues, and a plethora of other health problems.  Men are not immune either.  Foods they may eat can increase their risk for diabetes, erectile dysfunction, and prostate issues.  Dr. Neal Barnard, author of Your Body in Balance shows us how our hormones are affecting our health in ways we never imagined.

My friend, Meiping Liu from Lotus Health Foundation in Rochester, MN asked me to moderate a Q&A with the esteemed doctor, author, clinical researcher, and founding president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine.  The goal was to talk about his most recent book, Your Body in Balance which I had recently finished reading.

I’ve heard Dr. Barnard speak at several conferences and had the pleasure to meet him in person last year. I’ll admit I was a bit star-struck. In the whole food, plant-based world he is a rockstar!

What sets Dr. Barnard apart is the body of research he has compiled throughout his career. As the curator of Living Healthy List, it is essential that we share science-based information by experts you can trust.

If you are unfamiliar with Dr. Barnard please read more about him here.

In our conversation, Dr. Barnard shares a brief presentation based on the research in his book.

We touch on topics that are plaguing the American population.

  • Diabetes
  • Renal Disease
  • Thyroid problems

In Your Body in Balance Dr. Barnard also touches on topics like:

  • Dairy
  • Soy
  • Whole Food Plant-Based Diet

You can learn about those topics and much more by watching the entire Question and answer session.
