Can you spouse or significant other make you physically sick?

The joke writes itself, but it's truly no laughing matter. The answer is yes! And the reasons extend beyond just the day-to-day hiccups of relationships.

Research shows that your husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, or partner can have a direct influence on your health. Dr. Neal Barnard, author of The Power Foods Diet, joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to explain how the love of your life is influencing your ability to be healthy.

Dr. Barnard explains that it's a double-edged sword. While some relationships can become a barrier to being healthy others can work very much work in your favor to build a healthier body inside and out.

To demonstrate how significant the influence your partner may have, Dr. Barnard shares a study examining high blood pressure among couples. If one person has high blood pressure the other is at a significantly higher risk of having it as well! And that's just the tip of the health relationship iceberg!

In The Power Foods Focus, Dr. Barnard also shares the foods that you should be eating to boost your metabolism and achieve your weight loss goals.

On This Show

- High blood pressure among couples

- Your partner's influence on your risk of heart disease

- Your partner and your risk of cancer

- How to encourage healthier habits

- Minimizing temptation

- Saturated fat and cholesterol

- And more!

Doctors are overworked. Patients are suffering. It doesn't have to be that way.

Dr. Laurie Marbas knew this all too well. It's one of the reasons why she shifted her practice to lifestyle medicine. This is a patient-first approach that seeks to identify and treat the root cause of illnesses rather than treating symptoms exclusively.

In this episode of The Exam Room Podcast, Dr. Marbas and "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll discuss her experience transitioning to lifestyle medicine that can serve as a blueprint for other doctors to begin incorporating it into their practice as well.

Topics Discussed

- Effective outcomes with lifestyle medicine

- Insurance and lifestyle medicine

- Patient success stories

- Health care costs: traditional vs. lifestyle medicine

- Benefits of businesses incorporating lifestyle medicine for employees

- Unhealthy weight loss

- Body composition and maintaining muscle mass after weight loss

This episode was taped live at the International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine in Washington, D.C.

Is a vegan diet always healthy? It appears that even with ultra-processed plant-based foods there are substantial health benefits.

The results of an analysis comparing a vegan diet containing "junk food" indulgences and a standard diet containing meat and dairy are examined by Hana Kahleova, MD, PhD, who co-authored the study.

After analyzing the results of nearly 250 study participants, she joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast with the surprising findings.

About The Study

The analysis assessed the association of a plant-based diet index (PDI), healthful plant-based diet index (hPDI), and unhealthful plant-based diet index (uPDI) with weight loss. The PDI measures adherence to a plant-based diet in general, the hPDI includes more fruits, vegetables, grains, and beans, and the uPDI includes more foods such as refined grains and fruit juices.

The findings are from a secondary analysis of a Physicians Committee study in which 244 overweight adults were randomly assigned to a vegan group that followed a low-fat vegan diet or a control group that made no diet changes for 16 weeks. Calorie intake was not limited for either group, and neither group was given diet quality instructions.

Many people would rather break up with their spouse than give up Doritos, pizza, or a pint of ice cream after a long day.

The food you crave doesn't talk back, question your decisions, or tell you that you're wrong. It only makes you feel better in the moment.

The problem is these foods become addictive with each meal. And soon life can revolve around getting the next fix. While it sounds extreme that is the reality facing millions of people every day.

And once you've hit that point breaking up with food will be infinitely harder than ending any relationship you've ever been in.

So, it is time to reset your relationship with food.

Discover how to conquer cravings and crush unhealthy habits with seven-time New York Times bestselling author, Dr. Joel Fuhrman.

He joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll for an insightful conversation about food addiction and filling the body, mind, and belly with nourishing foods that can help to reclaim your health. In time your relationship with food will do more than reset. It will become stronger and healthier than ever.

It's not a breakup. It's an evolution.

"I can fix your arteries with balloon angioplasty and put a stent in there or I can fix it with broccoli."

Those are the words of Dr. Ted Barnett who calls himself the "High-Tech Doctor With Low-Tech Solutions."

Carving out a career has been a delicate walk for Dr. Barnett who practices as an interventional radiologist but would much prefer to treat patients with affordable fruits and vegetables rather than expensive and invasive procedures.

While the former still pays the bills, Dr. Barnett and his wife volunteer their time at the Rochester Lifestyle Medicine Institute, which he co-founded. It is there that he is able to write prescriptions for produce that are often more effective than the medicines patients were previously prescribed.

One of the newer methods of treatment offered by Dr. Barnett is a 15-day intervention to address the root cause of potentially life-threatening chronic illnesses. The courses are now being offered on a global level.

He sits down with "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to talk about his patients' success and what he believes the future of health will look like.

Other Topics

- Can high-fat peanuts clog arteries like other high-fat foods?

- Comparing plant-based indulgent foods and traditional sweets and treats

- Is there are sweet spot for the right amount of fat?

- Success rate of lifestyle interventions vs. other diets

- Staying on a healthier path starting a new way of eating

- Why many diets fail

- Successfully raising his kids on a plant-based diet

Jim Greenbaum walked away from successful $130 million business with one mission in mind, use his wealth to change the world. Little did he know that his world was about to change as well.

It all began with a conversation at the gym.

Those few minutes helped this man with exceptional generosity and a tireless work ethic to help others began to realize that he too needed help.

After growing up in the land of Crisco, red meat, and Coca-Cola, Jim knew he had to do something to avoid the same fate as others in his family who were stricken with heart disease. He was already struggling with high triglycerides and cholesterol.

Jim was given a copy of The China Study by T. Colin Campbell and began implementing changes. It only took one month for "everything to go into total balance" for the first time in his life.

The effect was so profound that Jim shifted the focus and vast resources of his foundation to moving the world toward a plant-based diet and vegan lifestyle.

Generosity is alive and well.

After losing 100 pounds himself, a doctor is rethinking how to help his overweight patients.

Cardiologist Dr. Steve Lome joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast. Dr. Lome believes nothing can change until the root of the obesity epidemic is addressed.

He disagrees that there is no money in a cure. Instead, Dr. Lome says there's a path forward for everyone to win. Doctors and medical providers can still remain profitable while patients can lose weight, keep it off, and address the underlying medical conditions that have caused their quality of life and bank accounts to suffer.

It is Dr. Lome's belief that the financial and physical suffering will end through a new approach to weight loss. And it's an approach that he's already proven can work through his own eye-opening weight loss!

There's a big difference between being old and feeling old. Forty can be the new 20. But that can also extend well beyond midlife. Sixty can be the new 40, and 80 can be the new 60.

Shabnam Islam, MS, is a clinical exercise physiologist and professor who specializes in healthy aging.

She joins Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast to talk about slowing down and turning back the hands of time.

- Age-defying nutrients in green leafy vegetables

- Sea vegetables, bulbs, and legumes are important for staying young

- Is fiber more effective than collagen?

Protein can be found in the foods you'd least expect.

Nutrition researcher Christopher Gardner, PhD, explains that virtually all fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes contain all 20 amino acids that are the building blocks for the protein your body needs to function at a high level. Those options are widely believed to be healthier cholesterol-free options than what are considered traditional protein sources.

Gardner also compares the quality of protein found in various sources and why getting enough is like a big game of scrabble.

He joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast to share his findings and a new view on protein.

This episode was recorded at the International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine in Washington, DC.

Twin brothers Jeremy and Jordan Allen both suffered from alopecia. Clumps of hair would fall out leaving embarrassing bald patches on their heads that were impossible to miss.

They tried countless treatments and home remedies to regrow their hair. Nothing worked until they began eating a vegan diet. They say changing the way they eat enabled them to begin regrowing their hair and helps their body fight the autoimmune disease that caused the hair loss.

Together they are co-founders of All Love No Beef and join "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room to share their inspirational journey.

Nathaniel Jordan watched his father, a minister, die of complications stemming from an unhealthy diet. Ditto for three uncles who all died in their mid-60's or younger. His grandparents also died of preventable chronic diseases.

Nathaniel almost suffered the same fate. He was 100 pounds overweight and suffering from prediabetes and heart complications, before he had an epiphany following his father's passing. The former police officer wanted to follow in his father's footsteps albeit while taking a much healthier path.

Thus, the Minister of Wellness was born. He lost the 100 pounds and was reborn into a healthier body after adopting a plant-based diet.

He's now blending his faith with healthy food and helping thousands ditch what he calls the "Satanic American Diet" that had been robbing them of their health and taking years off their life.

Nathaniel joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to share his incredible journey back to health and why his faith stronger than ever.

Going vegan may not just improve your health. It could also improve your financial bottom line.

A study finds that eating an exclusively plant-based diet saved shoppers 16% on their grocery bill or roughly $500 per year, according to a study by Dr. Hana Kahleova.

She joins "The Weight Loss Champion" on The Exam Room Podcast with the surprising results. While shoppers obviously spent more on fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, the expense was more than offset by the savings from no longer purchasing eggs, meat, and dairy which tend to be higher priced items.

If you think eating a plant-based diet is too expensive, this study shows it's time to think again.
