Love Dr. Fuhrman and the Nutritarian lifestyle. Of all the plant based doctors, his advice has been the most helpful to me. Both my husband and I are down to our ideal weights and feel amazing, thanks to him.

My BMI is between 19 and 20. I have never smoked. I don't drink and I don't take drugs. I walk 90 minutes daily. I eat a whole foods plant-based diet. I will have to see if it qualifies as nutritarian. I am 67 years old.

Dr. Fuhrman's points are so accurate. The changes in restaurants have been so astronomical. And I have struggled with raising my children during the 2000's. The pediatrician told us that my son's weight was prediabetic. He is 24 now but he is still struggling with his weight. I remember telling the doctor what he ate, and I couldn't compete with the restaurants. My husband couldn't see what the big deal was. I am still struggling to stop giving in every time he wants to go out to eat. I realize now that we are both food addicts.

Hello @doyd - I get it. Going out is a struggle. Perhaps start with picking chinese or asian restaurants. Although you're likely to get hit with lots of salt - you should find some filling and flavorful veggie dishes and even tofu dishes. When Lee and I venture out - we have never had a problem creating a vegan pizza or if we have to - we can always find potatoes and veggies if the selection is limited. My hope is that more restaurants will offer veggie burgers. Soup also is a great place to start - along with a salad of course. I will say though - we eat at home a majority of the time. I would encourage you to batch cook - vegan chili and lasagna. We are always available to help. We offer coaching as well at www.kuriskoandco.com

Love Dr. Fuhrman. His approach to excellent nutrition as a part of moderate caloric restriction is just irrefutably healthy. I could toss in a bunch of anecdotes as to how beneficial his advice has been to me (no more diabetes!), but the large scale scientific support is far more compelling!!

I still ❤ Dr Fuhrman even though he makes negative comments about those who support President Trump 😁

I love listening to Dr Fuhrman and learning from him and I have for quite a while now. I try hard to follow his guidelines. But the Trump comment was not necessary. My politics do have nothing to do with how I choose to eat

We agree. In hindsight we should have edited that statement out completely!

Hi Dr Fuhrman any idea for breast calcification? What a woman can do. My second question is about breast thermography versus mamogram.. I stop doing Mamogram 2 years ago although I have breast calcification.. I eat healthy I am a plant based eater with minimal consumption of olive oil. I really like your diet.

@kuriskoandco 11 күн бұрын

Sorry for late response. Breast calcification usually is benign. It requires the expert eyes of a radiologist to assess which calcifications could be cancer. The more common benign breast calcifications are not a health risk. The decision to pursue screening mammography is a personal one to be made in discussion with your doctor. I suggest that you view this video for more information. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aN1giJWCx5mUnWw.html As far as screening with thermography goes, don't bother. It has no scientific validity as a screening tool.

Think this post is maybe what you refer. Natural Hygiene was taught by Natives to USA medical people & those teachings remained the law of the land up until the late 1800's when big pharma began to take over making Natural Hygiene unjustly obsolete until early 1900's when Herbert M. Shelton re-founded the orthopaedic practice at his health sanatoriums & by the 1950's he ran for potus, but big oil land grabs & big pharma swindles had a monopoly by then, also it was further corrupted by the liquor industry that had spiraled out of control as a drug of choice ever since the 1930's. So it is way past time to make Natural Hygiene a part of our daily lives again, as the once sober apple cart was upset too many times over the years by oppressive governmental inebriated addicts who have been increasingly abusing a once sound medical practice here in America for far too long. Here is my take on needed improvements for those who have yet them or even considered changing these corrupt current laws yet. Back around the 70's reagan began shutting down state hospitals to save taxes for the rich resulting in an ever increasing spiral of homeless street people & overcrowded prisons. Reagan was inebriated on his bubbly. That points to another mess up that occurred back in the 30's when they made alcohol their drug of choice as legal recreation & criminalized other intoxicants. Past time for a resolution to both these gross errors. 1- make all drugs & alcohol legal medically with supervision. 2-drug & alcohol test all law enforcement, politicians, educators & gun owners at their own expense, never as illegal recreation in use currently. Until those insane obsolete laws, rules & regulations are changed with appropriate resolutions the errors of the past will continue to escalate.

He couldn't help himself. He had to throw another Trump bomb. Like a child. At least I get something out of his medical advice.

Although Joyce and I definitely have our own political views, for the purpose of this channel we prefer to remain apolitical and should have edited that out. We are keen on educating and helping people of any political affiliation.

@lkuriskomd I think that's a good practice. I highly respect Dr Fuhrman's nutritional advice but just can't handle his political stuff.

@annemccarron2281 I'm not even defending Trump. It's just amazing to see how childish a doctor can be when he should be talking about medicine instead of his political nonsense. He goes way beyond Trump. He lets us know how he feels on topics that are well disputed and easily split the country down the middle. I absolutely don't care what the doctor thinks about these things. His opinion, as far as I'm concerned, is ill-informed and I just don't care. He is brilliant when it comes to food. That's what I listen to him for.
