Debunking Myths with Dr. Neal Barnard & Dr. Robert Ostfeld
Are vegans really more likely to have a stroke than meat eaters? In this jam packed episode of The Exam Room Podcast™, Dr. Neal Barnard joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to debunk that myth and take a close look at a recent study that found that to be the case.
As you'll hear, the conclusion was drawn after researchers adjusted data from the study. Find out why this happened as Dr. Barnard sheds light on this method as well as a conversation he had with the authors of the study.
You'll also learn the difference between hemorrhagic and ischemic strokes and how the risk differs for meat eaters compared to those who eat a plant-based diet.
Then, Chuck is joined by Dr. Robert Ostfeld to take a closer look at the health claims of the Atkins Diet. The low-carb, high fat diet is making a comeback thanks to a new wave of marketing.
"As a cardiologist, I think the Atkins Diet is a mistake," Ostfeld definitively stated.
It's a mistake he says that goes beyond an increased risk of heart disease and cancer. Because you'll find out how the effects of the diet stretch all the way into the bedroom where a lack of fruits and vegetables can impact erectile function!
