In this powerful and practical conversation, Sean A. Russell sits down with Dr. Neal Barnard, physician, researcher, author, and president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, to answer the most common health questions people ask about plant-based living.
Drawing from decades of clinical research and real-world experience, Dr. Barnard breaks down how a whole food, plant-based lifestyle can help prevent and even reverse chronic conditions like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and hormone-related cancers. He also addresses long-debated topics including soy myths, dairy consumption, cholesterol, eggs, pregnancy on a plant-based diet, autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto’s, meal timing, and the critical role of fiber.
This episode is designed as a practical resource you can return to again and again, offering clear, science-backed answers from a plant-based physician who has helped reshape how medicine understands food as treatment. Along the way, Dr. Barnard also reflects on compassion, environmental responsibility, and why healthy food habits may be one of the greatest gifts we can give the next generation.
Listen in for clarity, empowerment, and a reminder that food is not just fuel. It is powerful medicine.
