Welcome! and Thank you for Listening. What does Paula Dean have to do with E-Cigs? How different is cheesy grits and bacon from E cigs when it comes to health. You cannot live on E cigs, but you can survive in some form eating greasy "comfort" foods as she describes. However, both will ultimately get you a shelf of medications and a multipage medical record. There is outrage about the 40 deaths and over 2000 people that became ill this year linked with E-cigs, but we readily turn a blind eye to nutrition as the main ingredient linked to hundreds of thousands of lives lost each year.
What is the best way to treat coronary artery disease. This week a new study called the Ischemia Trial was presented. It is great news for those adopting a plant based diet that can reverse cardiovascular disease. It is also a testimony that we do not have a medical therapy that reverses cardiovascular disease despite millions of dollars performing procedures and prescribing medical cocktails.
I hope you enjoy as I ponder these questions this week. Remember to visit the website at doctordulaney.com to learn about our practice, sign up for the newsletter, or register for our educational opportunities. Email me at jami@doctordulaney.com

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. Save a Turkey. Wouldn't it be nice if we had a peaceful Thanksgiving that promoted health and wellness? I am not wishing for it, but I intend to do my best to live it. No animal will give its life so that I can be thankful for having too much to eat.
Nutrition is the leading cause of disease in this country. It is not too little but too much. The solution is so simple to most of our health problems and perhaps will go along way to cure the ultimate disease, aging. Lifestyle diseases are just markers of aging. They can be delayed for sure by exercising and eating a plant based diet. But the time is now. Not tomorrow or next Thanksgiving, but now. Take the turkey off the table. Take the oil out of the gravy. Take the dairy out of the pie. Take back your health. Others will eventually follow, but only if you are brave enough to lead the way. I talk about this and much more during this episode.
Email me at Jami@doctordulaney.com with questions about our practice and mission to combat aging and lifestyle diseases. Peace and health to you and your family.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. Today I am joined by my registered dietitian, Addie Majnaric as we discuss my talk at the Concierge Medicine Today conference in Georgia.
It is easy to preach to the choir but not so nearly so easy to speak to those hearing a message that is contrary to what they are used to. The theme of the meeting was, you are unique. Physicians that step outside of the establishment of how medicine is practice might be considered unique or just fed up. But if we continue to practice medicine like we have for the past 70 years focusing on following lifestyle diseases instead of reversing them, we will not extend life expectancy or the quality of life. We have to change our approach and focus on reversal and prevention of lifestyle diseases such as high cholesterol, diabetes, heart disease, dementia and cancer instead of looking for ways to merely live with these chronic diseases.
Addie and I discuss this and much more. We are focused on improving quality longevity through a plant based diet and active lifestyle. We celebrate movement and plant foods in their most natural state in the right quantities to sustain an active life.
If you are interested in achieving optimal health and wellness and would like to join us for an personalized immersion week, check our our website at doctordulaney.com

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. There are many marketing campaigns about finding a cure for various cancers and other maladies. Presidents have declared war on cancer and a commitment to ending heart disease. Millions of dollars are spent on pharmaceutical research. While this is all well and good, little effort is given to preventative campaigns. The American Heart Walks will begin in a few months. Again focus is on treatment instead of prevention. I liken these things to the football analogy of prevent defense. Let's be conservative in our efforts and hope the clock runs out before we loose the game. We prescribe medications to ease suffering until the body finally cannot live any longer.
In today's podcast, I discuss the mechanisms that risk factors cause disease. Being overweight is a disease of modern society. It is nearly impossible not to be with today's food choices. We don't realize that a few hundred extra calories each day translates into several thousand extra calories each year and over a million calories in 10 years!. Most adults struggle to keep that curve from going up steadily. We yoyo diet up and down trying to play prevent defense. The problem is the toxins we accumulate along with those added calories confounded by the hormones produced by the accumulated fat cells themselves.
We have to keep our focus on the goal. We have been led to believe that our happiness is connected only to the food we consume instead of life experiences. We are well served by eating vegetables, whole grains, and fruit. We have abundance of food available to us and even plant based foods can lead to over consumption and ultimately the diseases associated with being overweight. We have to regain our mindfulness of fueling our bodies in accordance to our metabolic needs.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. Why does controversy seem to get the most attention? Shocking news! Those doctors can't make up their minds what is healthy. They want us sick? Healthy is not good for the economy.
You can win more friends with maple syrup than vinegar. Unless, you are Dr. Esselstyn who loves balsamic vinegar. Today I chat about what we all believe is healthy. The facts that we agree on when it comes to nutrition. We all agree that the risk factors for lifestyle diseases are the same whether it is cancer, heart disease, or diabetes. We are learning more about our gut microbiome everyday and its role in disease and health with regards to our immune system. So if we use a little common sense, and apply what we know to a food such as red meat for instance, it is hard to say that it will not cause disease when it contains all the ingredients of disease that we agree on.
Why must we take time to debate how much of a bad thing we can tolerate instead of how much of a good thing can we benefit from? How do we put together a plate that will do us the most good not cause us the least harm.
The most important thing you will do today is centered around maintaining the health of you and your love ones. Not money. Not things. Not places. You have the opportunity to positively impact the health of you and your family. Do not miss that opportunity by picking up process food in a plastic container or box. Prepare and present food that looks good, tastes good, and is good for you and your family. Set a healthy example of activity and enjoy the process.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. This episode is a recap of Ironman Chattanooga. I completed the 144.6 mile course last Sunday in very hot and humid conditions. What does this have to do with plant based wellness?
Everything. It is about pushing beyond your comfort zone. It is about breaking a long day or a long journey down into manageable sections. Life is an endurance event. It is a challenge and an opportunity to grow and be grateful. Many of the obstacles that limit us are because we let them. The negative chatter in our heads starts to take over and escalates.
I hope you find this episode entertaining and motivational. Thank you for listening.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. I hope you had the opportunity to see The Game Changers Movie. We had a great turnout here in Port Charlotte, Florida. I think there were many positives from the movie, and it was very educational. Yes you can be big and strong and eat plants. I especially liked the comment from one of the athletes that he just discovered asparagus like it was a new invention. Another athlete joked that you don't have to eat an ox to be as strong as one.
So what are your take aways? Will you up your nutritional game? Your exercise game? We all have ways we can improve our health. Yes you can be healthy, lean and energetic. What are your goals for the rest of the year? Don't let the play clock run out.
I hope you enjoy my discussion of the movie and gain a few pearls from the studies that I discuss this week.
Go on over to doctordulaney.com and see our new announcement-we are offering an immersion week to get you on your way to a healthy lifestyle. There is also a link for the one day conference tickets and to our cookbook: Plant Based Wellness Cookbook: Three generations of cooking, the Doctor, the Dietitian, and the Diva.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening!. I am a plant based cardiologist that specializes in reversing lifestyle diseases through plant based nutrition and movement. This allows me to eliminate the need for medications that many people think they will require for a lifetime.
Athletes and sports psychologists talk about the flow state. As a cardiologist the flow state that I am referring to is through the blood vessels. These tiny conducts have an inner most lining of endothelial cells that secret nitric oxide resulting in dilatation or enlargement of the blood vessel. That means more blood flow carrying oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. Want to run fast? You had better be able to get more blood flow to your legs. Want to have a good memory? You had better have good blood flow to your brain. Want to restore health? Supply the body with more nutrients through unobstructed blood flow.
There was a study published this month by Lima et all in JAMA Cardiol. that looked at endothelial dilatation in response to the stress of a public speaking exercise on blood flow or endothelial reactivity. The people studied had know coronary artery disease. In the patients that had worsening endothelial dilatation after the stress of public speaking, there were a greater number of follow up deaths, heart failure episodes and unstable angina. It was suggested that screening patients with this method may determine those at greater risk for cardiovascular events.
Ok now, we know that people with endothelial dysfunction are at risk if they have known coronary artery disease. How are we going to fix it?
If we improve endothelial reactivity, will athletic performance improve? If eating oil causes vasoconstriction will that impair athletic performance?
I hope you are going to see The Game Changers Premier September 16, 2019. I believe it will change the lives of many athletes that want to take their performance to a new level.
I discuss these things and more on this episode.
Meet the Dietitian, Addie Majnaric, RDN, @naturallyrootednutrition.com and get your Plant Based Wellness Cookbook Signed and taste a few treats. She will be located at 2718 Old Chocolate Bayou Rd, Pearland, Texas 77584 at Sprouts Market Saturday, September 14, from 1pm to 4pm.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening. I am fired up today about a new study released in the British Medical Journal that suggests there may be more bleeding strokes in folks that eat vegetarian or vegan than meat eaters or fish eaters. Of course the overindulgent journalists for major news networks are quick to point a finger at us dietary puritans that don't eat free range or factory farmed animals. Hooray, a hole in our plant based armor! Not so fast. There is some funny math going on as well as a skewed population. Nutritional studies that rely on dietary questionnaires are very difficult to interpret let alone to use that information to project future risk.
Let's stick to what we do know. High cholesterol and high inflammatory states are risks for lifestyle diseases including cardiovascular disease. These are largely caused by dietary excesses. There is a continuum of risk from the worst nutrition to the most optimal. I am very comfortable recommending a whole foods plant based diet that is low fat and high fiber. I am also very comfortable at recommending lean body mass and vigorous exercise on a daily basis. We are not a country sick from deficiencies but a country sick from excesses.
