Feeling lonely or disconnected lately?

I go rogue in my latest solo episode because I want to discuss rediscovering the importance of connection. I share my recent experience on a pilgrimage to the north of England, where I connected with a group of around 40 people, all with the intention of being open and becoming better versions of themselves. After this experience, I quickly realized the importance of social bonding and connection so I discuss how it can have a profound impact on our overall health and well-being in today’s episode. You don’t want to miss it, so tune in now!

Could your plate of greens be the secret to shedding those stubborn pounds?

In today’s episode on the Darin Olien Show, I talk with Dr. Neal Barnard about the science behind the weight loss wonders of a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. From a landmark 2005 study providing a fresh perspective on appetite control to metabolism-boosting recipes, we're unveiling a world where counting calories becomes obsolete, and where foods like cinnamon and blueberries earn the title of 'power foods.'

This conversation stands as a testament to the might of plant-based proteins and the truths about soy in men's health. We tackle the misunderstandings head-on, debunking fears with evidence that highlights soy's cancer-fighting properties and the real effects of dairy on our hormonal balance. Our conversation may just be the catalyst you need to re-evaluate your protein sources and embrace the multitude of benefits that come from plants.

Dr. Barnard has led numerous research studies investigating the effects of diet on diabetes, body weight, hormonal symptoms, and chronic pain, including a groundbreaking study of dietary interventions in type 2 diabetes. Dr. Barnard has authored more than 100 scientific publications and 20 books for medical and lay readers, and is the editor in chief of the Nutrition Guide for Clinicians.
