 I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Amanda Adkins, a physician double board-certified in Internal Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine, who shares her passion for helping women prevent and possibly reverse chronic illnesses through a plant-based nutrition lifestyle. Throughout the episode,  Dr. Adkins talks about how incorporating more plant-based foods into your meals can have a positive impact on your health and the environment. By reducing or eliminating animal products, you can lower the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers, while also reducing our carbon footprint. 

Dr. Adkins provides helpful tips and powerful insights for making the transition to a plant-based diet easier, such as focusing on the foods you enjoy, experimenting with different cooking methods and flavors, and not being too hard on yourself if you slip up.  The conversation was informative and inspiring. It's clear that a plant-based nutrition lifestyle can have a significant impact on our health and the environment, and I hope that you find this information valuable as well.

In this episode of Plant Based Curious, I share my personal journey from sickness to plant-based living. During my interview with Yvonne Pierre, host/producer of the Let’s Talk Healing podcast, I discussed what inspired me to adopt a plant-based lifestyle. I shared that I had hypertension at a young age and was getting sicker as I got older, despite not realizing that food played a significant role in my health. After a doctor's visit, I learned that my gut issues were related to what I was eating, which prompted me to go plant-based. Over time, I adopted a vegan philosophy, which helped me connect with animals and the environment. 

I launched the Plant Based Curious Community to create an environment where people can learn more about the benefits of a plant-based lifestyle and make informed decisions about their health and the environment.
