In my previous interview with Dr. Michael Greger, we discussed his book How Not to Die, which is, in my opinion, the best, most comprehensive book on nutritional science ever written.

In today’s interview, filmed aboard the Holistic Holiday at Sea Cruise, Dr. Greger and I talk about his incredible new evidence-based weight loss book, How Not to Diet.

Why do I care about weight loss? Because obesity is the second leading cause of cancer. Excess body fat promotes hormonal imbalances, chronic inflammation, and immunosuppression. Losing excess fat and getting down to a healthy weight and BMI is essential for prevention and healing.

Dr. Greger made quite a few surprising and fascinating discoveries while combing through the scientific literature to learn the best dietary strategies to lose excess weight and keep it off…

Like how dinner calories are twice as fattening as breakfast calories (seriously!), the best intermittent fasting strategy, spices that accelerate weight loss, and so much more!

You’re gonna love this interview with Dr. Michael Greger!

If you encountered a physician that dismissed you when you brought up the question of nutrition, who had an abysmal ignorance on the importance of what you are eating, on behalf of my profession, I apologize to you. The state of nutritional awareness among my profession is an embarrassment and we are working hard to reverse that.” -Michael Klaper, MD

Dr. Michael Klaper is an internationally renowned health and wellness educator. He has been a plant-based medical doctor for 39 years. He has written multiple books, produced numerous health videos and webinars, and authored dozens of articles for both scientific journals and the popular press.

Dr. Klaper served on staff at the TrueNorth Health Center for many years and is now spearheading Moving Medicine Forward, an initiative focused on educating medical students on plant-based nutrition to prevent and reverse chronic disease.

In our interview we talk about the incredible benefits of fasting, the True North medically supervised fasting protocol, how animal protein fuels cancer growth, fad diets like the ketogenic and carnivore diets, his opinion on sugar, salt and oils, and so much more.

I’ve been an admirer of Dr. Klaper for many years and it was a thrill to finally meet him in person! I know you will enjoy this interview with the brilliant Dr. Michael Klaper, filmed in my cabin on the Holistic Holiday at Sea cruise in February 2020.

Neal Barnard, MD (@drnealbarnard) is a physician, Adjunct Associate Professor of Medicine at the George Washington University School of Medicine in Washington, D.C., President of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, and Editor in Chief of the Nutrition Guide for Clinicians, a textbook made available to all U.S. medical students.

Dr. Barnard has authored more than 90 scientific publications and 20 books, including best-sellers on plant-based nutrition, diabetes, hormones, weight loss, and more. His most recent book, Your Body in Balance: The New Science of Food, Hormones, and Health was released in February 2020.

Dr. Barnard grew up hunting and driving cattle to slaughter in his family’s cattle business. But he had an epiphany in med school, decided to stop eating animals and began researching nutrition for disease prevention and optimal health. Today he is one of the most influential plant-based medical professionals in the world.

I have been a big fan of Dr. Barnard for a long time and recently had the opportunity to interview him on a boat!

We were both speakers on the Holistic Holiday at Sea plant-based cruise in February 2020. It was an incredible experience and I’m scheduled to speak on the March 2021 Cruise, assuming the world goes back to normal by then… Details here.)

Dr. Barnard is a brilliant, compassionate and gracious teacher. In our wide-ranging interview, he shares his plant-based conversion story, talks about the problems created in the human body by excessive consumption of animal food, and how to balance your hormones naturally with a plant-based diet. His advice for doctors and cancer patients at the end of our interview is especially powerful.

I know you will love this interview with Dr. Neal Barnard from my cabin aboard the Holistic Holiday at Sea.
