In 2015, Dr. Rakesh Jotwani was four years into his career as a hospital doctor. He was feeling burnt out and his wife became pregnant with their third kid.
Dr. Rakesh ate as he had always done to deal with stress.
Whenever he came home to his wife and kids, he brought all the negative feelings he had during work.
After attending a wellness training session from work, Dr. Rakesh decided to start meditating 10 minutes a day after work to help him deal with stress. A few weeks later, his wife noticed how much better he was getting along with her and the children.
Dr. Rakesh tried a whole food plant-based diet. After three weeks, his blood pressure was normal again, his cholesterol had dropped by 40 points, he reversed his prediabetes, and lost 10 pounds.
Since switching to a plant-based lifestyle, Dr. Rakesh has lost over 70 pounds and has helped his patients treat their chronic diseases with a plant-based diet!
