Hellah Sidibe is the first black man to run across America (fueled by plants!) and has been running every day since May 15th, 2017. That’s officially over 2000 days in a row in every weather condition imaginable! This year, he also completed the iconic Leadville 100 Trail Race in Colorado.  And, it all started with a commitment to run just 10 minutes a day.  Like many, Hellah hated running but started moving his body to lift himself out of a dark period in his own life. It was his way of taking responsibility for his own happiness. Five years and thousands of miles later, running is now his primary outlet to raise money for charities, help others find inspiration in their daily lives, and demonstrate the endless power of a plant-based diet.   On Instagram, he writes,  “Using our energy on what we’re afraid of is wasteful when it can be used on what we want to accomplish. We don’t need everyone to believe in us in order to chase those dreams and goals. Enjoy the process and get after it y’all!”  Episode Timestamps and Highlights 6:53 Origins of his name, Hellah, and his upbringing in Mali 10:57 How tragedy brought him to the US 17:28 His dream of becoming a professional soccer player 18:40 Did he always love running and what compelled him to even start a run streak? 29:45 When did he decide to run across the country? 33:15 Adventures of running across the country  36:00 How and why Hellah switched to a plantstrong diet 41:30 His favorite running conditions  43:29 Does he prefer running alone, or with people? 45:00 What about listening to music or podcasts? 48:24 Favorite athletes, or inspiration? 49:30 What in the world do his parents think about this non-traditional career? 53:40 Low points on his Run Across America 57:20 His experience at the Leadville 100 1:02:23 How did he fuel for a 27-hour race in the mountains of Colorado? 1:11:25 For Hellah, what constitutes a run distance to qualify as a “streak?” 1:14:55 What does he eat in a day? 1:17:30 How does he sleep?  1:18:00 How does he keep his feet healthy with all of this running?  1:22:26 What’s next for Hellah?   Episode Resources Join TEAM PLANTSTRONG and run the Austin Marathon, Half Marathon or 5K with Rip!

A few weeks ago, we hosted a Facebook live event with Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn to discuss the importance of green leafy vegetables in preventing and reversing heart disease. 
During the broadcast, Essy shared the science behind chewing vs. drinking your leafy greens and he also spent time answering viewer questions. It was packed with so much information and action, that we’ve decided to share the playback in podcast format. Ann even got in on the action because she was so darn jazzed about it! And you know her, when she’s excited, she just can’t sit still! Essy answers: What do we need to know about endothelial function? What is nitric oxide and what functions does it perform? What is so magical about green leafy vegetables? Why we should chew our greens, as opposed to drinking them? What is the science behind this recommendation? Why do greens have to be steamed? Is raw ok? Can I use apple cider vinegar on my greens, or is it only balsamic vinegar? What does caffeine do to your artery cells? If I chew my green leafy ands still have a smoothie, is that ok? Should I limit spinach, or should I mix up my greens? How long should I chew my greens? Is there an optimum amount of time? What effect does wine have on the endothelium? What is the best way to store greens? Ann and Essy's thoughts on microgreens or baby greens? Can we eat the stems from our greens? Is insulin resistance the core cause of cardiovascular disease? Is hyperthyroidism improved with a whole food plant-based diet? If I have a problem with tooth decay, is it ok to use toothpaste with fluoride? What are some of Ann’s favorite ways to get greens into her meals? Does Menirges Disease have any correlation with heart disease? Where does exercise come into play? How important is it to our health? I’m wfpb and my cholesterol is still high. Anything I can do? What can I do to raise my heart ejection fraction rate?

Are you on meds for acid reflux and indigestion? Do you take antibiotics or birth control? Do you enjoy artificial sweeteners in your coffee? Do you drink alcohol on a regular basis? These are all ubiquitous substances in our society at this point, but they are also posing a threat to our immune system. Multiple studies show that antibiotics, medicines, and substances like alcohol and sweeteners actually reduce the amount of stomach acid in your gut, wreak havoc on your gut microbiome, and actually increase the likelihood of getting hit hard by viral illnesses like COVID-19.  So what in the world can we do to prevent this?  Gastroenterologist, Dr. Robynne Chutkan, is back with her latest book, The Anti-Viral Gut: Tackling Pathogens from the Inside Out and that is exactly what she and Rip discuss today. Why are some people more susceptible to contracting these new viruses, and what practices can we do to minimize that risk and boost our immunity? Dr. Chutkan is a powerhouse of research and information in this interview, and they start with the basics: What exactly are the gut and the digestive tract? Why do so many suffer from dysbiosis, which is a damaged gut microbiome? What makes some of these commonly-prescribed meds so bad for our gut lining?  Once we learn “the why,” then we can take action and that’s what the second half of the interview is all about. Dr. Chutkan shares her Top 10 Guidelines to boost your defenses and overall health. It’s a jam-packed session of research and science, but also hope. Our bodies heal at an enormously rapid rate if we provide the assistance it needs. According to Dr. Chutkan. those key elements include plenty of dirt, sweat, and whole lotta veggies! Episode Timestamps 17:26 Why write “The Anti-Viral Gut” Now? 26:40 What are PPIs and what percentage of the population is taking these drugs to treat acid reflux and indigestion? 28:30 People believe (because of marketing) that their stomach is producing too much acid and so they need these meds. This isn’t always true. What’s actually the cause of the discomfort? 31:42 Digestion 101 - What are the gut and the digestive tract? 39:22 Short Chain Fatty Acids- What are they and why are they so important? 45:30 What happens when you don’t have enough short-chain fatty acids to provide energy to the cells of the gut lining? 52:55 Disbiosis of the gut -What is it and why is it happening? What did the American Gut Project show us? 1:05:11 Robynne’s 1-2-3  system for getting more fruits and veggies 1:07:45 Birth control pills, artificial sweeteners, and alcohol -How do those affect the gut? 1:20:55 The cascading effects of stress and lack of sleep on our microbiome and immunity 1:27:30 The OAF - The Open Air Factor - The importance of getting outside 1:29:35 Dr. Chutkan’s Top 10 List for health and longevity 1:49 Robynne’s ‘Ride or Die’  Guidelines for optimized health   Episode Resources Episode Webpage Watch the Episode on YouTube Order The Anti-Viral Gut Dr. Chutkan’s Website Follow Dr. Chutkan on Instagram @gutbliss Download our FREE Holiday Recipe Guide To stock up on the best-tasting, most convenient, 100% PLANTSTRONG foods, including our broths and soups, check out all of our PLANTSTRONG products HERE.

It has been said that necessity is the mother of invention and Debbie Adler epitomizes that phrase. In 2006, she opened Sweet Debbie’s Organic Cupcakes bakery, the first to feature vegan and sugar-free treats.  However, a year later her son was born with many life-threatening allergies, forcing her to take an even deeper dive into nutrition and food-related illnesses. Because of her son's needs, she developed recipes and new baked goods that were not only vegan and sugar-free, but also gluten and allergy free. Her business skyrocketed.  Her son is now 14 and doing great, thanks in part to her diligence. Debbie has since gone on to write three cookbooks, including her latest, The Mediterranean Plate, which is what we discuss today.  This book is filled with delicious Moroccan, Greek, Spanish, Italian, French, and Middle Eastern recipes without all of the oils, fish, meats, and cheeses that are so prevalent on the Mediterranean diet. In fact, not only is every recipe whole food plant-based, but also salt, oil, sugar, and gluten-free. We dig through foods that may be familiar to you, but with Debbie’s special twist - think gnocchi, moussaka, pancakes, her recipe for feta, soups, and so much more.  Cooking from scratch can be intimidating, which is why most of these dishes are “one-pot” recipes, minimizing mess and clean-up. She even provides her recommended equipment and pantry staples to make this adventure as simple as possible.  So enjoy this conversation and mouth-watering tour through, “The Mediterranean Plate,” with Debbie Adler. Episode Highlights: Debbie’s reason for starting her vegan and sugar-free bakery Why write The Mediterranean Plate? Her Top 18 Ingredients for Healthy Aging Kitchen must-haves and favorite spices and seasonings Gathering grains, flours, and powders - What should you have in your pantry? Preferred sweeteners, canned foods, and favorite tools/appliances Rip and Debbie’s mouth-watering tour through the book!

As busy families, it’s easy to catch yourself coming and going, shoveling back quick meals without even thinking, and prioritizing convenience over health, especially when you’re constantly pressed for time.  You know you’re supposed to incorporate healthier eating habits for your whole family, but HOW? Enter board-certified pediatrician, certified lifestyle medicine physician, health coach, and mother of two, Dr. Yami!  Dr. Yami’s work and her private practice focus on how families can start to integrate more whole plant-based foods into their diets and adopt other healthy lifestyle habits even when moving a million miles a minute.

Why did she loathe her body and what has she done to feel better in her body? Rejecting weight stigma in kids - why this is such a complex issue and important to understand that poor nutrition and body image can affect anyone.

Today, we share a modern-day story of David and Goliath with Dr. Baxter Montgomery.  In 1997, Dr. Montgomery opened Montgomery Heart and Wellness in Houston, Texas right in the shadows of the powerful and world-renowned campus of the Texas Medical Center, the world’s largest medical center.    As a board-certified cardiologist and cardiac electrophysiologist, Dr. Montgomery has treated thousands of patients with severe cardiovascular diseases, but he started to notice something.  Even though he employed state-of-the-art procedures, interventions, ablations, and medications, his patients continued to grow weaker and sicker.  Montgomery, instead, started researching nutrition’s role in disease reversal and found that - you guessed it- PLANTS were the common denominator in determining wellness.  Today at Montgomery Heart and Wellness, Dr. Montgomery helps patients achieve optimal health and wellness through various nutrition programs. His goal? To get his patients to think beyond the script, improve their health, and reverse these chronic lifestyle diseases.  He truly is a modern-day David fighting a giant Goliath medical system, but much like David, he’s ready, willing, and able to slay the dragon of lifestyle disease.   Episode Timestamps 6:00 Why he was inspired to take a different approach to medicine  12:45 His own personal journey back to health that inspired his nutrition protocols  16:45 Just do this for seven days! 22:50 The results are astounding 24:30 Changing the Health Care Paradigm - “Heart and Souls of a Champion” upcoming program 29:50 Is his facility and in-patient center? 31:20 What’s an LVAT? 32:40 What is Lipoprotein a? 35:00 Are his colleagues on board, or still resistant?  39:00 Dr. Montgomery’s 3 pillars of optimal health 41:50 How can the human body heal itself so quickly? 45:35 Moderation is like running through quicksand. 47:40 How do his patients respond to his protocols and advice? 49:00 Why does he prescribe raw foods only for his patients?  57:00 All about the upcoming four-day Open House and Red Carpet Gala  1:02:00 How he is living his God-given passion 1:05:00 Bonus - Dr. Montgomery’s take on A-Fib and PVCs Episode Resources Episode Webpage Watch the Episode on YouTube Montgomery Heart and Wellness Website

We are "fired up" to welcome a plantstrong firefighting sister, Cindy Thompson, to the PLANTSTRONG podcast.  I was so moved by Cindy’s background of why she chose firefighting as a career, but it’s her journey to plants that makes her a true hero in my book. In this male-dominated, meat-loving profession, she boldly took agency over her own health and, along the way, inspired others (including those macho male firefighters) to take a second look at their own plates and take the plantstrong journey with her. Today, even though she’s retired from firefighting, she is still extinguishing the flames of disease and illness as a health and lifestyle coach, and, among many other credentials, is a licensed Food for Life Instructor for the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. Her business is called Tri-Mazing because, yes, she does triathlons for fun now, but when you are making food and lifestyle changes to benefit the health of the planet, the animals, and yourself, you are **Three Times Amazing**!  And, we get a bonus surprise today because she whips up an amazing queso dip and shares that recipe with us today!  Enjoy!

We’re going to introduce you to a word today that may be new but is something many of us unknowingly participate in on a daily basis. That word is “carnism.” Melanie Joy coined the word in her work as a Harvard-educated psychologist and author specializing in the psychology of eating animals, social transformation, and relationships. What exactly is carnism? It’s the Invisible belief system in our culture that conditions us to eat certain animals and not others. Her book title actually sums it up perfectly, Why we Love Dogs, Eat Pigs, and Wear Cows. From birth, we’re conditioned to believe that cows, chickens, pigs, and fish are food…and, here in America, dogs and cats are pets. We don’t even question it. The fact that this belief system is so ingrained in our culture is, in fact, carnism.  But, my friends, the tide is turning as people are waking up and becoming more aware that,  We don’t have to consume animals to survive and thrive There are better and more humane ways to treat animals – ALL of which deserve respect and dignity And, we simply don’t have to act against our core values as empathetic human beings Awareness is the first step and with awareness, we are better able to think freely and act compassionately, to create healthier and more fulfilling relationships and a more equitable and sustainable world. Episode Timestamps 11:00 Melanie’s Journey to veganism 15:25 Helping us understand carnism and how we’re a part of this invisible belief system 19:48 Carnism conditions us to act against our core values of compassion and empathy 24:00 In one day, more farm animals are slaughtered than the total number of people killed in all wars throughout history 24:30 Why carnism is a system of oppression and was this a big master plan? 26:00 Examples of carnistic defense mechanisms -  30:00 The Three “N” - normal, necessary, and natural  32:40 How do we piece the veil of carnism and start to dismantle the system? When you become aware of the system, you’re much less likely to be hijacked by it. 38:00 Are there classes and resources to learn more and develop effective communication skills around these topics? 38:42 Are we in a “meatocracy?” 41:06 How can this be so invisible if it’s so pervasive? 46:00 Why self-care and self-compassion are so important for change  50:58 How do we lower the bar for compassion and make it easier for people to make choices that align more with their values? 54:45 Is she hopeful about the future? 59:55 Are there countries around the world that are heading in the right direction? 1:05:15 carism.org truly is a service organization   Episode Resources Watch the Episode on YouTube Episode Webpage Buy Why We Love Dogs, Eat Pigs, and Wear Cows Carnism.org Center for Effective Vegan Advocacy To stock up on the best-tasting, most convenient, 100% PLANTSTRONG foods, check out all of our PLANTSTRONG products HERE.
