Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 496: Austin Ratler 50K

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  

The Austin Ratler 50k is in the books.  More things went right than wrong.  Perhaps the what went wrong makes for a more entertaining story.  We certainly tend to learn more from the what went wrong.  They also give us practice dealing with life's obstacles.  Nothing is perfect, but not right doesn't have to be bad either. 

I hope you find this episode entertaining but can also apply some of my strategies for dealing with what goes wrong to your health journey. Thanks always for listening.

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 495: Ebook Launch with Addie Majnaric RDN

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. 

Addie Majnaric, RDN, joins me today to launch our new ebook, Powerful Plates, Fight Breast Cancer with Food.  

Rather than buy pink labeled clothing or contribute to so called breast cancer research, why not decrease your own risk of cancer.  One in 8 women will get the diagnosis.  Despite the pink, breast cancer is still very prevalent in the United States.  Most assume that it is just a roll of the dice or bad luck.  And what is even worse is that there is nothing you can do to alter your risk or increase your chance for health.  That is just not so. 

Allopathic medicine talks of informed consent and early detection but in reality, women are made to fear the diagnosis so much that they feel powerless to participate in their own health.  

Nutrition is a pillar to a healthy lifespan.  Eliminating chemicals, and additives in food and enhancing nutrient density is a game changer.  Mindset is also a powerful tool for health along with exercise and a normal BMI.  

We will be launching our Powerful Plate ebook soon that features 10 healthy easy to prepare recipes that are powerhouses of nutrients for the whole family, but especially for women wishing to improve their prognosis when it comes to breast cancer.  The recipes feature fiber, betacarotene, antioxidants, cruciferous vegetables, soy, and mushrooms.  We added a fall twist with the addition of sweet potatoes and pumpkin.  These are Plant Based Wellness practice favorites that the entire family will enjoy.  I hope you enjoy our discussion. 

Thank you for listening!

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 494: Hurricane Milton and Aging Choice

 

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  I hope hurricane Milton was the last one of the season.  I will share our experience and tips for maintaining plant based nutrition when some of life's conveniences are not possible. Some people say aging is not for the weak.  I am hear to tell you that you can write your own story.  Why is your aging style any different than your choice of clothing style or decorating style.  You get to choose.  However, it is easier to dial that style in earlier versus later.  I believe most people do not actively plan how they will age, the goal is to just be pain free.  A pain free existence may have the side effect of loss of strength and mobility.  This will ultimately lead to more and more dependance on the help of others.  

What is the difference between nitrates, nitrites, and nitric oxide.  Can your body use all of these for health?  Stated another way, is bologna equal to kale in nitric oxide potential? 

I hope you enjoy the episode.  I hope your aging choice is one of activity and engagement with others.  We can help you achieve your goals if you would like.  Visit https://doctordulaney.com/membership/join-us/ if interested in taking your health to the next level.

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 493: Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Being Your Own Advocate

Welcome! and Thank You for listening. 

Breast cancer awareness is more than just pink ribbons and mammogram scheduling.  It certainly is a scary diagnosis.  Nearly 1 in 9 women will get the diagnosis.  The good news is there are things we can do to prevent it and also things we can do to treat and prevent recurrence. You have a voice in your own healthcare.  We will discuss this as well as gastric cancer screening and heart failure treatment in this episode.  

Confidence comes from repetition whether it is advancing from a 5k to a marathon or changing from a SAD diet to a plant strong diet.  Repetition and consistency.  That does not mean it is easy.  In fact doing hard things is what life is all about.  The reward is health and health span.  Just like training for a marathon, a coach can help you to see if you are training to hard or not hard enough.  Our practice is based on working WITH people to assess goals, problems, and therapies.  It is not a protocol or one size fits all.  I hope you enjoy the episode.  Thank you always for listening.

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 492: Decreasing Risk of Autoimmune Type 1 Diabetes Through Dietary Choices

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. 

Autoimmune diseases are often thought to be genetic.  However, there are many people with at risk DNA that never develop the disease.  DNA does not turn on by itself.  There has to be a stimulus and often it is a protein that is the trigger.  Type 1 Diabetes occurs mainly in young children and is the result of pancreatic islet cell destruction by an autoimmune process.  One's own body produces antibodies directed against the islet cells and insulin precursors.  How do we make our children less susceptible to autoimmune diseases? Is there a trigger that one can eliminate that would markedly decrease the incidence of Type 1 Diabetes? 

My guest Addie Majnaric, RDN and I discuss 2 studies that suggest that there are things we can do as parents to decrease the risk of Type I Diabetes. 

Family nutrition often takes a back seat when scrambling for time.  Anyone would like to avoid the stress of the breakfast table.  But are we setting our children up for chronic diseases and narrow palates?  Addie will give some inexpensive alternatives.

As many as 40% of children have a chronic disease.  Why is this?  I believe  our food is a major reason.  We would love to help you navigate the muddy water of food choices and menu planning.  Email Addie Majnaric RND at addie@doctordulaney.com to schedule your consultation.  We meet people where they are and help them to navigate their way to better health. 

Thank you for listening.

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 491: The Magic Number

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.   It works.  It really does.  Plant based nutrition and exercise reverses lifestyle diseases and people can achieve a normal BMI.  However, it only works if you do it and do it consistently.  Congratulations  David R for achieving some major health goals.  The struggle is real but once you commit nothing can stand in your way.  Living a healthy lifestyle amongst people striving for a quick fix or plainly trying to keep you from changing is a real struggle.  

My wellness practice works with people living in the real world.  Not a controlled environment. I have the opportunity to observe when people are walking the walk then fall.  It is a great learning experience for me and a potential learning experience for the person struggling.  Potential because they need to be mindful enough to see what really works versus just going through the motions of change. Each person has the ability to observe what works and what is going through the motions.  Failure is a great teacher if the student is ready.  How much do you want it? Part of the problem is defining what true health is.  

The magic number is the plateau weight for men and women in the general population.  The density or energy content of food has markedly changed over the past 50 years, and so has the average weight of men and women.  Not the healthy weight, but the weight that is achieved by everyone eating similar energy packed food.  It is the new normal, but it is the new unhealthy normal.  How bad is it?  It depends if you want to support the business of medicine through pharmaceuticals and procedures.  They won't cure you or make you live longer or better but they will help you get to the next cocktail party.  

If you are ready for a change, we can help.  We can show you how to live healthy and happy in an unhealthy and largely unhappy world.  Check out our website at https://doctordulaney.com/membership/join-us/

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 490: Lp(a) and a Good Nights Sleep

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. 

What does it mean if you are in that 25% of the population than has an abnormally high Lp(a)? Is it worth loosing sleep over?  I can assure you that will not fix the problem.  So many studies correlate numbers with potential outcomes.  It seems logical, but it often is not the case.  Just ask a 90 year old Italian with a high Lp(a).  

Even worry is treated with a medication, and there is no known biochemical pathway that correlates with worry.  The treatment effect, like most psychiatric medications, is just to dull awareness.  What a great quality of life that must be.  Most people want to avoid dementia but think nothing of medications that dull your cognitive abilities.  Hence, don't operate heavy machinery which should include a car.  If they said car, less people might opt out of taking said mind dulling medications. 

It all gets back to the root cause of not feeling well.  Do you have a disease or a side effect of medication.  Perhaps you are suffering from a lack of exercise induced mitochondrial dysfunction.  I hope you enjoy the rant and thank you for listening.

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 489 : Why is Your BP Elevated

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. 

48% of adults carry the diagnosis of hypertension.  They are diagnosed and placed on medication usually based on protocols.  Very rarely are people assessed for why they have hypertension.  Certainly, nutrition is a large contributor to elevations in blood pressure both from excessive sodium intake and vascular damage from a high fat diet.  But the reaction to stressful situations also plays a role.  Stress is perceived by the individual and the reaction is also controlled by the individual.  The emphasis is on eliminating stress, but that is not a realistic option because it is the perception of the individual about what defines stress.  We all possess the ability to choose our reactions.  It is easier said than done but certainly beat the health consequences of ignoring the problem.  

Does eating meat help with low Testosterone? 

Can older women improve heart function with resistance training? 

Are plant oils better than animal oils?  Is better an acceptable option? 

I hope you enjoy the episode.  Thank you for listening.

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 288: Eat Plants and Be Strong

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  Today I have a plant based strong man on the podcast.   Nathan Majnaric, SCCC, CSCS.  Most plant based athletes lean toward the endurance world so it is great to have the opportunity to speak with a powerlifter, strength coach, and a blue belt in jujitsu that is not only fueled by plants, but has improved on plants.  It was not a compromise but an asset to fuel plant based while continuing to advance in his chosen sports but also from a basic health standpoint.

Most lifestyle diseases are a result of impaired metabolism.  Our muscles are a major user of energy, and the organelle that is the power plant of the cell is the mitochondria.  As we lose muscle mass, we lose mitochondria.  This leads to impaired energy utilization as well as the risks of falls and brain perfusion of nutrients.  Bottom line, we all need to train to maintain our muscle mass or regain muscle mass if lost through inactivity.  It can be the difference in living independently or the ability to participate actively in life. 

We will discuss approaches to strength training as well as fueling for recovery.  How much and how often or is anything better than nothing are often topics of concern. 

Given Nathan’s diverse training experience, we feel comfortable of offering online training programs specifically designed for an individual’s goal.  We will also begin to offer limited personal instruction for those with specific needs and the desire to have a someone that can interact with them to achieve a specific goal.

Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 487: Mindful Eating

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  

A New England Journal of Medicine Study looked at how much energy people thought they consumed, and how much energy they actually burned.  They compared two groups of overweight individuals based on reported energy consumption.  Group one had difficulty loosing weight despite a reported 1200 kcal or less consumption of food and vigorous exercise.  There were some surprising findings and some consistent findings that I think you will find interesting. 

Nutrition is one of the biggest contributors to a healthy life span yet we ignore it's significance and celebrate eating poorly.  We are made to believe that overindulgence is necessary for true happiness.  We look at food restrictions as a form of punishment.  

We would like to help turn this around by promoting mindful healthy eating that is enjoyable.  We also celebrate movement to preserve lean muscle mass and mobility.  Check our our website to see what we can do to make you achieve your health goals to insure a healthy life span. 

Thanks for listening
