Sustainable weight loss is hard, which is why PLANTSTRONG is dedicated to helping others achieve optimal health and weight loss with the power of a whole foods, plant-based diet.
We’re grateful to Dr. Neal Barnard and other pioneers for providing the research and evidence-based studies that validate our “food as medicine” approach to health. Today, we celebrate the release of Dr. Neal Barnard’s latest book - The Power Foods Diet - The Breakthrough Plan That Traps, Tames, and Burns Calories for Easy and Permanent Weight Loss. or you, without feeling hungry.
Dr. Barnard highlights the scientific principles behind appetite-taming, calorie-trapping, and metabolism-boosting foods, emphasizing how these power foods can optimize weight loss naturally. The importance of fiber in enhancing weight loss and overall health is also discussed, with a focus on incorporating whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and legumes to reap the benefits of fiber in daily meals.
The conversation also dispels myths surrounding foods like bananas, oatmeal, potatoes, eggs, and soy - offering Dr. Barnard’s medical perspective on their nutritional properties and role in a balanced diet.
Plus, we couldn’t let Dr. Barnard go without asking his thoughts around the new weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy…and why even shows like 60 Minutes can’t even be trusted anymore.
