Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  

When we think of eye health, the first food that comes to mind is carrots.  We all need Vitamin A and carrots are a great source.  Eggs are also rich in Vitamin A but they are also rich in cholesterol that will not do your eyes any favors.  

Did you know your eyes are rich in mitochondria?  Being overweight is a risk for cataracts.   I had a great visit with my plant based eye doctor and will share some discussions we had.  Anywhere there is blood supply there is a risk of vascular disease.  Aerobic exercise is a great way to improve the stiffness of arteries.  How much?  Give a listen.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  

This has been a year of comebacks and new traditions.  The holidays  can be very stressful partially due to maintaining traditions.  Some of the traditions are not even healthy or even take away from more healthy behaviors.  Taken together with the stress of fulfilling the tasks makes for a not so joyous holiday.  As the minimalists say, does this still bring you joy?

Large sedentary family and friend gatherings with excessive amounts of calorically dense foods can derail a nutrition and movement comeback.  We added a new Christmas Eve fun run to our holiday tradition.  Less time in the kitchen and more time moving.  

I have been on a comeback journey with an ankle injury.  Who knew an ankle injury could take so long to heal? I have had to focus on what is going right more than what I am unable to accomplish running.  Step by step changing negative dialog to positive dialog.  It is not easy but is much better when I can do it.  

Comeback stories are the best, and I would like to invite you to https://doctordulaney.com/membership/join-us/ to let us help you with your comeback.  Our team would love to support you. 

As always, thanks for listening.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  

Today, Andy "Croom" Mathews joins me to talk about his 200 mile ultra run across Florida for his 63 third year of life.  We talk about his running career and how different it turned out from what he thought it would.  Better yet, we talked or he did, about the multiple ultras he has planned for the near future.  To say that we can do more than we think we can could not be more evident than listening to his story.

What will be your story for 2025?  The sky is the limit if you are willing to roll up your sleeves and do a few hard things.  If you have met Andy, you will know he does just that with a big old smile on his face.  

Enjoy the episode and Thank you for listening.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  This is podcast 500 for me.  I have tried to average one podcast a week since the beginning.  I have had a few 10 day stretches but for the most part once a week.  

The why for my podcast has not changed.  To educate people about a healthy lifestyle with regard to nutrition and exercise.  

I became a cardiologist because the people I loved most died from cardiovascular disease.  Family history certainly plays a role in health both from a genetic and environmental stand point.  It has been my mission in my medical practice to understand those risk factors and observe whether modifying lifestyle factors can influence the course of disease.  The podcast is an attempt to reach more people with a similar interest.  Bringing science and story telling together has been the evolution of the podcast.  

It is never too late to make a change towards better health.  I hope this podcast has inspired that sentiment.  I plan to expand the podcast by adding a monthly live podcast as a live discussion of questions for would be patron members.  This will begin in January on the first Friday of the month.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  

The holidays are upon us, and the year is coming to the end.  There could not be a more important time for mindfulness.  Where did those holiday foods come from?  What are the ingredients?  A little bite of this or that surely won't hurt you will it?  Some of those little puffed appetizers are packed full of fat and salt.  Buffet tables are full of calorie dense food that is consumed with little regard.  The next thing you know, your weight is up 5 lbs and your breathing is labored.  

Come on Doc, live a little they say. That is exactly correct.  I want to live a little longer to do the things that really matter to me.  I can still hang out with great folks eating Costco mac and cheese and have a good time without eating it.  I look forward to the healthy meals that I prepare.  

If you have a health concern, you deserve support and a voice in your care.  We would be happy to navigate health care decisions with you.  Check out our website at https://doctordulaney.com/membership/join-us/ for consultations, coaching sessions or full memberships.  You can also gift access to our website content for $25.00 per month.  This is a great way to dip your toe into a plant strong lifestyle.

As always, thanks for listening.

Welcome! and Thank you for listening.  I want you to talk yourself into a plant strong Thanksgiving.  I want you to sell it like a used car salesman.  Write your reasons down.  Detail your plan of action now.  Describe the menu in detail.  If you don't know the recipes by heart include them in the details.  Leave nothing to chance.  This takes the guess work and will power out of the equation.  Rehearse a dialogue that you will have with friends and family.  Dare to be healthy.  Celebrate health with healthy food.  Give thanks for health.  Present the food in the most beautiful way. 

The holidays are a stressful time because we expect perfection in the face of everyday reality.  Traditions are yours to make.  Turkeys were not a part of the original Thanksgiving nor was football.  When you sit around the table and reflect on being thankful for your health does it not make sense to celebrate with healthy food?  I will give you some healthy tips for the holidays in this episode and a little science to boot.  Thank you for listening.  I appreciate your kind emails and support. 

We would love to be your support to a healthier you.  Check out the website at https://doctordulaney.com/membership/join-us/

Welcome and Thank you for listening!  One commercial that sticks in everyone's mind is "Timex, it takes a licking and keeps on ticking".  Resilience does not come from everything going right.  It is developed through life's traumas and failures.  Amazing stories of resilience are admirable and motivational.  However, the big red easy button also seems to catch our attention.   Which statement resonates with you.  Against all odds.  It is never zero.  Why not me.  It is impossible. 

There are a lot of things we can do nutritionally and movement wise to make ourselves more resilient, but achieving those goals depends on which statement we use to tell our story.  

I will share some resilience stories today along with a little science behind vitamin D supplementation and dementia.  I hope you are motivated by the stories to move a little more,  face some hard things head on and eat plant based to increase your resilience.

Thanks for listening.  Check out our website to learn how you can become the healthiest version of you.

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.

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.

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.
