The ten biggest findings in nutrition from 2023 are unveiled!   Groundbreaking research in 2023 may lead to major advancements in the prevention, treatment, and reversal of many common chronic diseases that drive up health care costs while also driving down the quality of life for millions.   The studies examine the obesity gene, what happens to the health of identical twins when they eat a different diet, and the risk of high blood pressure among couples!   The findings also show eating a healthy diet can have a double positive effect in that it can reduce overall spending on food and health care. Thus, there will be more money in your bank!   Dr. Roxanne Becker joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to share the biggest discoveries of the year.   Chuck also talks about his own DNA analysis and that revelation that he is genetically predisposed to be overweight.   Topics Discussed - The Obesity Gene and Overcoming It - Lifestyle vs. Genetics: Identical Twins Study - High Blood Pressure Risk Among Couples - Eating to Save Money and Your Life - Case Study: Reversing Type 2 Diabetes with a Plant-Predominant Diet - Plant-Based Pregnancy: What It Means for Mother and Child - And more!   — — STUDIES — — Vegan Twin Study https://bit.ly/VgnTwnStdy2023 — — — Obesity Gene Study https://bit.ly/ObeseGeneStudy — — — High Blood Pressure Couples Study https://bit.ly/HBPCouplesStudy — — — Vegan Diet Cost For Overweight Study https://bit.ly/VeganCostWeightStudy — — — Diet Cost Analysis https://bit.ly/DietCostAnalysis2023 — — — Diabetes Remission Case Series https://bit.ly/T2DCaseSeries — — — Diabetes Diet Comparison Study https://bit.ly/T2DDietCompStudy — — — Fatty Acid Diabetic Retinopathy Study https://go.nature.com/4aUdLZF — — — Fiber Pregnancy Child Development Study https://bit.ly/FiberPregnancyStudy — — — Protein Pregnancy Study https://bit.ly/ProteinPregnancyStudy — — EVENTS — — What: The Power Foods Revolution Where: Washington, DC - The National Press Club Date: March 26, 2024 Time: 7:00pm Who: Dr. Neal Barnard, Chuck Carroll, Dustin Harder, Stefanie Ignoffo Tickets: https://bit.ly/PowerFoodsTixDC — — BECOME AN EXAM ROOM VIP — — - Exclusive early access to select interviews - Pre-sale opportunities for live event tickets - Exclusive live online events VIP sign up: https://www.pcrm.org/examroomvip — — FOLLOW US — — The Exam Room Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theexamroompodcast — — — Chuck Carroll Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ChuckCarrollWLC X: https://www.twitter.com/ChuckCarrollWLC Facebook: http://wghtloss.cc/ChuckFacebook — — — Physicians Committee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/physicianscommittee Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PCRM.org X: https://www.twitter.com/pcrm — — — 5-Star Success: Share Your Story Apple: https://apple.co/2JXBkpy​​ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2pMLoY3 — — — Share the Show Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or many other podcast providers.
