Jami Dulaney MD Plant Based Wellness Podcast Episode 153-What the Fork? with Addie Dulaney Majnaric, RD

Welcome and thank you for listening.  Today I am joined by Addie Dulaney Majnaric, RD for our discussion on misconceptions in medicine and nutrition-WHAT the FORK! Isn't irritating to be duped by marketing? Sold a potion, pill or advise that is just not true?  There are millions of people out there willing to sell you something that makes you feel good about yourself when in most cases it is actually causing you harm.  People want to be healthy.  People want their children to be healthy.  But advertisements and false claims about medicines and nutrition are abundant.  The only thing more abundant is sugary, salty, oily foods.  They are packaged in colorful wrappers or at places with jingles that get into your head driving you into their restaruants.  There is a souce of food on every corner but not so much a souce of nutrients.  It is somewhat like early man looking for any source of calories to sustain life without eating poisonus vegetation or rotten animal flesh.  Now we have have to navigate false claims to get nutrient dense food that does not promote the new plague; lifestyle diseases.  There is no age group that is immune.  Even the unborn children are subjected to diabetic medications such as metformin resulting in an increase risk of obesity in their early years of life.  Being an overweight young women adds emotional stress but also increases the risk of cancers, polycystic ovary disease, endometriosis, infertility, and diabetes.  Throwing medications at this problem does not fix it but promotes more medical complications and risks.  Listen as we discuss many of these topics today.  

There is hope and we are excited to share it.  No one need have gestational diabetes or hypertension. Much of our current day health problems can be address through plant based nutrition.
