The Exam Room by the Physicians Committee

Multivitamins are thought to be great additions to your diet, but research shows the opposite may be true. In fact, one study finds a multivitamin may increase the risk of mortality. Other data shows a multivitamin may have little to no effect on your health. That said, there are instances when a multivitamin is healthy and beneficial. It can all be very confusing. Dr. Neal Barnard joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll to explain the pros and cons of multivitamins and supplements on The Exam Room Podcast. Topics Discussed - Warnings about multivitamins - Multivitamin vs. unhealthy diet and lifestyle - When a multivitamin can help - Who should take a multivitamin - Common nutrients missing in your diet - And more This episode was recorded at the National Health Association conference in Cleveland, Ohio. Dr. Barnard is a multiple-time best-selling author whose latest work is The Power Foods Diet. — — THE POWER FOODS DIET — — Order book: https://amzn.to/3GmCxUj Tour schedule: https://www.pcrm.org/events/power-foods-lectures — — SHOW LINKS — — Multivitamin Research Study: https://bit.ly/VitaminMortalityStudy Dr. Barnard Response: https://bit.ly/BarnardVitaResponse — — EVENTS — — Charlottesville VegFest Where: Charlottesville, VA Date: September 15 Tickets: http://www.veganrootsfest.org — — — Wellness Weekend Where: Davis, WV Date: September 27-28 Tickets: https://www.brendaworkmanspeaks.com/wellness-weekend — — — Power Foods Revolution Tour Where: New York City Date: October 5 Tickets: https://bit.ly/PowerFoodsNYC — — BECOME AN EXAM ROOM VIP — — Sign up: https://www.pcrm.org/examroomvip — — THIS IS US — — The Exam Room Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theexamroompodcast — — — Dr. Neal Barnard Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drnealbarnard Facebook: http://bit.ly/DrBarnardFB X: https://www.twitter.com/drnealbarnard — — — Chuck Carroll Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ChuckCarrollWLC Facebook: http://wghtloss.cc/ChuckFacebook X: https://www.twitter.com/ChuckCarrollWLC — — — Physicians Committee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/physicianscommittee Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PCRM.org X: https://www.twitter.com/pcrm YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/PCRM Jobs: https://www.pcrm.org/careers — — SUBSCRIBE & SHARE — — 5-Star Success: Share Your Story Apple: https://apple.co/2JXBkpy​​ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2pMLoY3 Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or many other podcast providers.

The truth about olive oil and your health is becoming clear. The results of a well-designed randomized clinical trial yield the answer to a puzzling question: Is olive oil healthy? The lead researcher, Dr. Monica Aggarwal, discusses what she calls "provocative data" gathered from the study. Would olive oil still prove to a healthy food if all participants were eating a healthy whole food, plant-based diet instead of the standard diet, which is often lower in nutrients and higher in fat? While the study admittedly has limitations, the results unequivocally demonstrated that olive oil may not be as healthy as many believe. Dr. Aggarwal joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll with the findings. — — SHOW LINKS — — Olive Oil Study https://bit.ly/OliveOilStudy2024 — — — Dr. Monica Aggarwal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmonicaaggarwal Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/monicaaggarwalmd X: https://twitter.com/drmaggarwal Website: https://www.drmonicaaggarwal.com — — — Free Athlete Nutrition E-Book https://www.pcrm.org/athlete — — EVENTS — — Wellness Weekend Where: Davis, WV Date: September 27-28 Tickets: https://www.brendaworkmanspeaks.com/wellness-weekend — — THIS IS US — — Work With PCRM https://www.pcrm.org/careers — — — The Exam Room Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theexamroompodcast — — — Chuck Carroll Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ChuckCarrollWLC X: https://www.twitter.com/ChuckCarrollWLC Facebook: http://wghtloss.cc/ChuckFacebook — — — Physicians Committee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/physicianscommittee Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PCRM.org X: https://www.twitter.com/pcrm — — BECOME AN EXAM ROOM VIP — — - Exclusive early access to select interviews - Pre-sale opportunities for live event tickets - Exclusive live online events VIP sign up: https://www.pcrm.org/examroomvip — — SUBSCRIBE & SHARE — — 5-Star Success: Share Your Story Apple: https://apple.co/2JXBkpy​​ Spotify: https://spoti.fi/2pMLoY3 Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or many other podcast providers.

Fat in milk does not count. That’s great news for dairy lovers! Unfortunately, it’s simply not true and the science just doesn’t add up. Yet, that is the premise of new legislation that would return whole-fat milk with 5 grams of saturated fat per serving, representing a quarter of an entire day’s limit, to school lunches across the United States. While the fat from the pizza, hamburgers, french fries, and other food on cafeteria trays is totaled up, the largest source of saturated fat is being totally disregarded. Why is that? Double-board-certified pediatrician Dr. Yami and Andrew Binovi, director of government affairs for the Physicians Committee, join “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll to discuss the bill and why fat in milk is being ignored.

One mistake would change Alana Moor's life forever. She was sentenced to 4.5 years in prison in a foreign country that was thousands of miles from her home and everyone she knew and loved. Although isolated and stripped of her freedom, it was there that Alana began to find a healthier path forward. The food in the Panamanian prison system would routinely cause her to fall ill. On a few occasions it even required a trip to the hospital. Alana's journey to healing began with her pushing for healthier food options and leading daily exercise classes for other inmates. Through that she found self-empowerment and a sense of worth that had been lacking. And today she is working with one of the largest plant-based event companies in Canada while continuing to champion healthier options for those who remain incarcerated. She joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll for an incredible story of rebuilding strength from the ashes of despair. 🔗 SHOW LINKS 🔗 Alan Moor TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@speakupmoor Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alanamoorspeaks Website: http://www.alanamoor.com COVID-19 Diet Study https://bit.ly/COVIDVegDietBMJ 🎟️ EVENTS 🎟️ International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine Where: Washington, DC — Grand Hyatt Date: August 15-17 Who: Drs.

Dr. Dawn Mussallem was clinically dead for four minutes. Her heart stopped beating in a room full of other doctors. The fact that she came back to life is a miracle. It was the second time she defied the odds to live. Earlier in life she beat Stage 4 terminal cancer. Does she have super DNA that helped her survive? No. Her superpower is one that every other human has the potential to possess: a positive outlook on life. That outlook would enable her to become the first person in history to complete a marathon on the first anniversary of receiving a heart transplant.
