Dr. Silvia Odorcicis Lifestyle Medicine Physician, Ophthalmology, Coach & Conscious Leader, living in Toronto, Canada. Harvard-trained MD, Dr. Silvia has over 15 years of experience treating patients with lifestyle-related diseases ranging from diabetes to heart disease. Her journey of relearning about health after med school and transforming to become vegan. Helping people eat a whole food plant-based diet and avoiding consuming all the processed alternatives. She makes eating whole foods easy and manageable. Why we should focus on nutrient-dense foods and not oil is calorically dense which translates to weight gain. She discusses the myths about soy and how it's actually deeply nourishing for the body. The GMO soy is the one fed to the animals, so if you wanting to be avoiding that then you'd want to decrease your animal products. How one day she dreamed of running a marathon and then she started training for it and did it! She touches on how much protein vegans can still consume. She gives a few documentaries to watch to learn more about animal agriculture, health, or plant-based athletics. How she's started to incorporate her spirituality into her practice too!
