The Exam Room By The Physicians Committee

Diet scores have been ranked and researchers have calculated how much healthier your own diet could be by going vegan!

The scores reveal what happened when more than 200 people stopped eating meat and dairy and began eating an exclusively plant-based diet that is low in fat. While we have known for decades that eating more fruits and vegetables is healthy, this study shows precisely how big of an impact it can have.

The study also reveals the number one predictor for weight loss, and it's not going to the gym! There is one type of food that prevented people from shedding unwanted pounds more than any other.

Lead researcher Dr. Hana Kahleova joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to talk about the findings and how they can be used to improve your health.

Dr. Vanita Rahman then returns to The Exam Room to share details on her new program for fighting hot flashes and how much better you might feel within a matter of weeks just by changing your diet.

Plus, Chuck reports on an alarming study for milk lovers that shows a connection between poor health and dairy consumption among heart disease patients.

Learn how to manage and improve your hormone health in the healthiest way possible.

Dr. Gemma Newman shares how women can revitalize and nourish their hormones by eating a cleaner diet and living a healthier lifestyle. The "Plant Power Doctor" also discusses how women can become more aware of the signs and symptoms that their hormonal health could be in danger.

She estimates that as many as 80% of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are unaware they have the disease and can be baffled by their symptoms. Likewise, many women with endometriosis are going far too long without receiving a diagnosis.

Dr. Newman discusses how a plant-based diet can help alleviate many of the painful symptoms and bring hormones back under control to help women age healthfully for years to come.

She joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast.

Chuck also has details on world-first genetic research that examines a link between low levels of vitamin D and high levels of c-reactive proteins that are associated with inflammation and chronic illness.

Plus, Chuck chats with a funny guy who seriously doesn't eat any meat.

Myq Kaplan joins the show to share a few humorous stories from his 20 years performing as a vegan comedian and why he began incorporating jokes about his diet into shows. For example, he masterfully points out to the "meat and potato" crowd that they're already halfway to eating a vegan diet.

In addition to having his own specials on Comedy Central, Netflix, and Amazon Prime, Myq has appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman, the Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien, and Late Night with Seth Meyers.

Could sausage ever be as healthy as broccoli? This idea has caught fire through the concept of personalized nutrition. It's the idea that your body runs better on some foods and not as well on others. In theory, this means that junk food could be healthier than fruits and vegetables in some cases.

But is that too good to be true?

Dr. Will Bulsiewicz joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to explore what personalized nutrition actually is, what it could mean for the future of medicine, and whether sausage could actually be as coveted as broccoli for your health.

Plus, they answer viewer questions from The Doctor's Mailbag

- Universally healthy foods

- Eating for your blood type

- Microbiome and mental health

Also, you'll discover why a traditional Chinese diet may be just what the doctor ordered to lower blood pressure when Chuck reports on a promising study on hypertension.

Dr. Bulsiewicz is a two-time New York Times bestselling author of Fiber Fueled and The Fiber Fueled Cookbook.

A cancer survivor shares her keys to living a long and healthy life after receiving a life-changing diagnosis.

Only weeks after losing her father to cancer, Caryn Dugan received more devastating news. She too had a form of the same disease that just left an enormous void in her life.

It was the final cruel twist in a horrific year, but it would ultimately serve as a pivotal moment for her future. Caryn went from being a self-described "human garbage disposal" to a pillar of health. As she battled cancer, she wanted to understand why this was happening to her family.

She began studying more about the habits that can cause cancer and reached one undeniable conclusion. Even though genetics play a role, things did not have to be like this.

Years of unhealthy eating, including relying on what many considered to be healthy "diet foods," likely contributed to her disease. As she learned more, she decided that no other branches would fall from the family tree before their time. The buck would stop with her.

Years later Caryn remains cancer free and has opened the nation's first plant-based culinary education center to pass on to others what she has learned. She is teaching thousands what it takes to live long, healthy, and cancer free lives at the Center for Plant Based Living in St. Louis.

One year after life-saving heart surgery at the age of 61, Dr. Akil Taher was climbing the highest mountains in the world.

The leading cause of death in America nearly had another victim. His heart stopped, he had stents inserted to open severely clogged arteries, and ultimately needed open heart bypass surgery. Finally, after ignoring the warning signs for years, he proclaimed that he wanted to not just live, but "really live."

The transformation that came next was nothing short of remarkable. It was a complete diet and lifestyle overhaul that eradicated more than 60 years of unhealthy habits.

Dr. Taher shares his inspirational story with "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast.

He is proof that it is never too late for you to change.

In 1995, Dr. Saray Stancic was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Within a matter of years she was already reliant on a cane to walk and doctors told her that eventually she would be confined to a wheelchair. Frustrated by her deteriorating health and lack of options, she began doing research on her own. What she discovered was so much more than she could ever have hoped for.

By changing her diet and reintroducing exercise, her health returned in dramatic fashion. Today, she no longer needs a cane and is walking freely without assistance. She no longer requires medication and is looking forward a future without a wheelchair!

On this episode of The Exam Room™, she joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to share what she learned and how it revolutionized her health! Dr. Stancic also reveals how the same diet and lifestyle changes that she made could eliminate up to 80% of all chronic disease cases, including heart disease, diabetes, and cancer!

She tried everything to improve crippling pain from rheumatoid arthritis. Nothing worked nearly as well as eating a vegan diet.

Ali DiGiacomo began suffering from RA at a young age. It ruined a once promising swimming career. Doctors told her that her joints resembled those of someone 50 years older than she was. As the condition grew worse she could barely do much physically let alone compete in the pool.

For the next 10 years she suffered in silence and kept her diagnosis a secret despite having surgery and being put on medication. The invisible illness was all too embarrassing, and she didn't know how her friends would react.

By the age of 21 Ali's condition deteriorated to a point where she could no longer walk without using a cane or even a wheelchair.

Then her fortunes would change when she began exploring whether she could improve her condition by changing her diet. After a friend suggested she try eating a plant-based diet her inflammation levels plummeted.

Today, she is social media star and advocate for RA who shares her journey in hopes of inspiring others. And the one-time swimmer who was forced to abandon the pool due to intense pain is now working as a personal trainer!

Plus, Chuck is joined by Dr. Hana Kahleova who studied 44 RA sufferers who changed their diet for 16 weeks. Dr. Kahleova shares the promising results of the study. Spoiler: Most saw their symptoms significantly improve like Ali!

Pollution doesn't just come from smog rising from the cars that are clogging up the road. Nor is it exclusively mountains of trash piled high with unnecessary plastic waste. Instead, the agricultural, forestry, and other resources it took to make your dinner possible account for as much as 25% of global greenhouse gas emissions, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.

Renowned author and international speaker Dr. Joanne Kong joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to discuss the best diet to slow climate change and improve the health of the environment as well as ourselves.

The environmental impact of vegan and meat-inclusive diets is examined head-to-head. Everything from carbon footprints to water and land resources are compared, and the difference between the two diets is immense!

One out of four people will die from heart disease in the U.S. But what would happen if they were referred to a nutritionist instead of just being given a pill prescription? Cardiologists think countless lives could be saved. More than half of doctors believe a healthy diet is as good or better than any medication they could prescribe.

Dr. Monica Aggarwal has researched the effect that a healthier diet can have on preventing and reversing heart disease. She joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to discuss her findings and how many lives could be saved with a food-first approach.

As it stands now, cardiologists send fewer than one in 10 patients to a nutritionist.

Eating meat could help you live longer. That's according to research, but the results appear to have a major flaw.

Dr. Matthew Nagra joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room LIVE to talk about the findings and how he believes researchers missed the mark by such a wide margin. As he points out, the data could also be interpreted to show another major carcinogen could also extend your life. But nobody is arguing that smoking is the key to longevity.

Dr. Nagra also answers questions sent into The Doctor's Mailbag.

- Is chicken a healthier option?

- Are lean meats harmful to heart health?

- Can chocolate increase cholesterol?

- Does sugar increase cholesterol?

- Many more!

Join Chuck and experts for The Exam Room Live Wednesdays at 12 p.m. ET/9 a.m. PT on Facebook and YouTube.
