Vegan Doc
Vegan Doc reveals up to date evidenced based medical/scientific information that is important.
I'll say it again; the Food Industry is not your friend.
A beach in the 70’s. Not one over weight body. My, how the food industry destroyed us.
Now that's scary!!!
In the pharmaceutical industry more money is spent on marketing medications than money that is spent on research. Good medications need very little marketing. Stay healthy, Vegan Doc
The primary key ingredient that needs to be promoted is starch. Starchy foods contain complex carbohydrates which are the energy sources for us; they break down into the energy sources (the sugars) that allow us to function. So, what are the primary starchy foods that have maintained cultures for thousands and thousands of years? Corn, beans, rice, and potatoes are primary sources of many tribes for thousands of years...corn or maize in the Americas, rice in the far East, root veggies in Africa, and legumes in India and South America. Starchy foods are great! Stay healthy, Vegan Doc
So, do you think marketing has anything to do with our health? You bet it does!!! Big time!!! Stay healthy, Vegan Doc

What are the two most important interventions to most medical illnesses that are not insisted on by physicians? The pharmaceutical industry admits this to be true but also states that patients don't follow this advice, so medication is indicated.... So, what are these two important interventions? Diet and Exercise. Humm? What a novel idea. Stay healthy, Vegan Doc
American (United States) is the most constipated nation on Earth. Check me if I'm wrong.
Researchers, studying fossilized human f***s, have concluded that paleolithic people consumed over 100 grams of fiber a day, compared to the average American's consumption of about 15 grams a day. Since fiber is found only in plants, (meat, dairy, eggs and fish have ZERO fiber) our ancestors consumed huge quantities of plant material every day. So much so, that eating animal foods would have been difficult. Try eating 28 cups of blueberries, or 20 large apples, or 8 cups of peanuts, or 32 bananas, or 20 cups of broccoli or 30 potatoes or any combination thereof to equal 100 grams of fiber a day and see if you have the stomach for anything more.

"America is a constipated nation . . . If you pass small stools, you have to have large hospitals. Western diets are so low on bulk and so dense in calories, that our intestines just don’t pass enough volume to remain healthy." Dr. Denis Burkett 1911-93.
True Story.
Say it in a scouse accent 😜😂
Impressive, most impressive.
A beach in the 70’s. Not one over weight body. My, how the food industry destroyed us.
Outstanding!!!
I will just leave this right here….
Did you exercise today? Yesterday? This past week? What? Are you serious?
Meet Diane Friedman, a 100-year-old powerhouse from Cleveland, Ohio, who’s showing the world that age is just a number! 💪 Diane didn’t even start running until she was 70, but now, at 100, she’s smashing world records left and right. On August 15th, at the Michigan Senior Olympics, she broke three masters sports records, becoming the fastest woman over 100 years old! 🏃♀️🌟
Diane set world records in the 100-meter and 200-meter dashes for the 100-104 age group, and if that wasn’t impressive enough, she also broke the American record for the javelin in the same category! 🎯 In the 100-meter dash, she clocked in at an incredible 36.71 seconds, beating the previous record by nearly 3 seconds! Diane’s achievements are living proof that it’s never too late to chase your dreams, and with determination, passion, and a love for life, you can keep pushing your limits at any age! 🌟🙌
Don't believe them. Focus on whole foods, plant-based, nutritious ingredients 🥗❤️
The United States is one of the most malnourished countries in the Industrial Nations.
💥 Eat real food 😁 Stick to the perimeter of the store. Buy things that need refrigeration… even then, be a label detective. If there are multiple ingredients, think twice. If there are ingredients you can’t pronounce, put the item down and walk away!
Marketing. Present day marketing for ‘Food’ is based on Greed, Denial, Rationalization, and Manipulation. It’s so far from ‘Health’ that the NASA scientists and astrophysicists could not find the beginnings of Fake Food News. Remember the Food Industry has no interest in your health (only the bottom line which is money..the root of all evil as my granny used to say) and the Health Industry (actually it is really the Sick Industry but that’s another story) has no interest in your food. Don’t let your emotions override your intelligence; eat your veggies, Vegan Doc

Dr. Ron is a plant-based sports medicine physician and psychiatrist who has 40 plus years of experience in the fields of psychiatry, sports medicine, and wellness programs. Developing and maintaining a healthy lifestyle has become exceedingly difficult in our society today. Following his retirement from active practice he became an expert in the field of plant-based nutrition to supplement his expertise in sports medicine and psychiatry. He became very active as “Vegan Doc” in his role of connecting the health aspects of ‘plant based’ nutrition, exercise, and stress management to the Vegan Community. The basic tenet in the Plant Based Community is ‘personal health’ while the Vegan Community is based on ‘Animal Rights’. Maintaining health for the Vegan Community is just as important as it is for the Plant Based community; Vegan Doc is that connecting link between the two.
