I sit down with Dr. Klaper, an internationally recognized teacher, speaker, and gifted medical practitioner who’s been helping patients reverse chronic illness with plant-based nutrition and integrative medicine for the last 40 years. In this episode we hone in on optimal nutrition to prevent America’s biggest killers - heart disease and diet-related cancers. We know that dietary patterns are a key component to preventing and even reversing many common diseases that are prevalent here in the US. Yet this education is still rarely taught to our medical students, emphasized in the medical course curriculum, or even discussed in the general population. Dr. Klaper and I also discuss how to build a nutritious plate with plant-forward nutrition and what specific foods help protect you against these diseases.
