The Exam Room by the Physicians Committee

This is how you have a vegan Thanksgiving for non-vegans! To prove that a big plant-based meal can satisfy even the most macho meat eaters, “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll enjoys a feast with Super Bowl winning running back Ricky Ervins and long-time sports writer Rick Snider.
They broke bread together just down the road from the headquarters of Washington’s NFL team and oh what a feast they had! The master chefs at GreenFare Organic Café and Restaurant whipped up all the classics: mashed potatoes, mushroom gravy, stuffing, vegan macaroni and cheese, brightly colored salad, sweet potato pumpkin bars — literally everything but the turkey!
For Rick and Ricky, it was a flavorful touchdown and a heck of an education, one that they may pay forward with their families at their own tables this year!
Chuck also delves into the science of a plant-based Thanksgiving with dietician Susan Levin. How does the body react differently to a big meal without meat compared to one that serves some? How might a vegan meal help keep you in a better mood and prevent little dustups over dinner? And are you less likely to slip into a food coma after you eat a vegan Thanksgiving dinner? Susan has the answers!
