- #4 Surviving a Shark Attack & Becoming a Vegan Badass | Paul De GelderIn February 2009, Paul was out on a routine training session as a Navy Clearance Diver where he was viciously attacked by a bull shark. Paul lost his arm to the shark and later had to have his leg amputated due to the severe injury. Years later, Paul has drastically changed his life by implementing a mantra he learned during his military training: Improvise. Adapt. Overcome. Paul now travels the world, educating people about sharks, advocating the protection of sea life, and even promoting the vegan lifestyle when he can. He is also the host of Shark Week and he is the author of No Time for Fear.In this Skype session with Paul De Gelder, we talk more about his story, how he managed to adapt after his accident, his nutrition and fitness plan, and the importance of protecting sharks and other sea life.🎙 Show Notes: https://www.bananiac.com/podcast/paul-de-gelder-4📱 Connect with @BananiacWebsite: http://bananiac.comYouTube: http://youtube.com/bananiacInstagram: http://instagram.com/bananiacFacebook: http://facebook.com/bananiacTwitter: http://twitter.com/bananiaceBook/Merch: http://www.bananiac.com/shopAmazon: https://amzn.to/2ExPP3lPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/bananiacFitbod: http://app.fitbod.me (Discount Code: BANANIAC)58 min
- #3 Plant Based Eating, Calorie Intake, Nuts, & Raw Food Diet | Michael Greger, MDDr. Michael Greger of NutritionFacts.Org has always been someone that I looked up to and have been inspired by. He is such a knowledgable medical doctor that is well versed in the research and scientific literature, yet is very down-to-Earth. He publishes daily videos on his YouTube channel going through a variety of studies involving food and medicine. He is also the author of How Not To Die which is an excellent read for anyone who wants to eat the healthiest diet that will help them to prevent and treat many chronic diseases.A few years ago, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Greger via Skype and I asked him questions regarding plant based eating, calorie intake for weight loss and disease management, if nuts' high fat content should be of a concern, if it's ok to eat processed vegan meat alternatives, and if raw food diets are healthy.🎙 Show Notes: https://www.bananiac.com/podcast/michael-greger-3📱 Connect with @BananiacWebsite: http://bananiac.comYouTube: http://youtube.com/bananiacInstagram: http://instagram.com/bananiacFacebook: http://facebook.com/bananiacTwitter: http://twitter.com/bananiaceBook/Merch: http://www.bananiac.com/shopAmazon: https://amzn.to/2ExPP3lPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/bananiacFitbod: http://app.fitbod.me (Discount Code: BANANIAC)33 min
- #2 High Cholesterol Diagnosis & Reversal as a Vegan | The Vegan ZombieChris Cooney, aka The Vegan Zombie, went to his doctor to find that his cholesterol levels were higher than the healthy ranges. On January 2018, his total cholesterol levels maxed out at 192 mg/dL and his LDL cholesterol was 130 mg/dL. As you can imagine, Chris was shocked because he hasn't eaten anything that has come from an animal (cholesterol is only found in animal products) in over 20 years! After evaluating his diet and considering his options, Chris decided that he would follow Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn's Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease recommendations. He cut all processed foods, salt, and foods rich in fat (nuts, seeds, avocados, etc.). After a little over a month from his last blood test, Chris was able to lower his total cholesterol to 142 mg/dL and his LDL cholesterol to 89 mg/dL making himself heart attack proof. To learn more about The Vegan Zombie's story, check out his video where he evaluates his blood results an talks about how to lower cholesterol without meds.🎙 Show Notes: https://www.bananiac.com/podcast/the-vegan-zombie-2📱 Connect with @BananiacWebsite: http://bananiac.comYouTube: http://youtube.com/bananiacInstagram: http://instagram.com/bananiacFacebook: http://facebook.com/bananiacTwitter: http://twitter.com/bananiaceBook/Merch: http://www.bananiac.com/shopAmazon: https://amzn.to/2ExPP3lPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/bananiacFitbod: http://app.fitbod.me (Discount Code: BANANIAC)27 min
- #1 The Starch Solution & The Deception of the Meat & Dairy | John McDougall, MDI was influenced very early in my nutrition career by Dr. John McDougall. After watching the documentary Forks Over Knives and some of his videos on his YouTube channel, I became so interested in his advocacy for a starch-based diet.Dr. John McDougall is the author of The Starch Solution and a medical doctor who has been speaking out about the effects of nutrition on disease for over 50 years. He graduated from Michigan State University’s College of Human Medicine, performed his internship at Queen’s Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii, and did his medical residency at the University of Hawaii. Dr. McDougall has been certified as an internist by the Board of Internal Medicine and the National Board of Medical Examiners.
