Read MoreShane Williams, MD, has been practicing plant-based (or as I would say, evidence-based) cardiology in Canada for nine years now.
With hundreds of patients and lots of experience with what works and what doesn’t in terms of advocacy, education, and support, Dr Williams is a valuable resource for plant-based physicians everywhere.
He began his cardiology practice in 2006, and stumbled across The China Study in early 2011, and immediately shifted his own diet to put it to the test. A bunch of pounds and a 20% cholesterol drop in just a few weeks, later, Dr Williams was a convert, and began talking to his patients about diet and lifestyle.

He’s served as president of the California Urological Association, was the lead urology delegate to the American Medical Association, and has been an assistant clinical professor at UC Irvine’s Department of Urology for the past decade and a half.

Read MoreYup, that’s me, talking directly to you in this episode.
I wanted to take a break from the guest-interview format because I have a lot on my mind.
Yesterday was my 53 birthday, and would have been my dad’s 100th (he and my mom planned well ;).
Read MorePhil Green is a heavy equipment mechanic for the military. Which is to say, he can fix things that people rely on for their lives.
And yet his own body was in a terrible state of disrepair. As a red, white, and blue son of Texas, Phil’s diet was (in his own words) “fried everything.” Except for the barbecued meat.
A baseball player in his younger days, Phil abandoned any pretense of fitness or health when he gave up sports and started a busy career. Eating out all the time expanded his waistline and led to profoundly ill health.
Read MoreMichael Klaper, MD, is one of the world’s most eloquent, convincing, passionate, and persistent advocates of a plant-based diet. He’s studied the health effects, the environmental ramifications, and the psychological aspects of eating meat and junk food, and can put the most complex science in totally accessible terms.
Here’s how he explains the vast majority of chronic disease in the Western world: “We’re putting diesel fuel in a gas engine.”
