    Aug 18 2025
    In this episode, we dive into three hot conversations rocking the plant-based world. First, we tackle the seed oil panic, are they really toxic, or is it just the latest scapegoat? Dr. Matthew Nagra joins Rich Roll to separate facts from fear. Then, we unpack Lizzo’s controversial claims about quitting veganism, needing animal protein, and blaming fake meat for fatigue. And finally, we celebrate the unstoppable Chef Babette, the 75-year-old raw-food powerhouse showing the world what aging on plants can really look like.

    What is the MediterrAsian Diet - Why Does Dr. William Li Promote It? S03E11
    Jul 1 2025
    In this special audio episode from Plant Based News, we bring together three powerful conversations that challenge diet extremes and spotlight the science behind long-term health. We begin with a breakdown of one of the internet’s most surprisingly reasonable ex-vegan videos—questioning whether honest dialogue is possible in today’s polarized nutrition world. Then we turn to a viral clip where ChatGPT is pushed to its limits in a heated exchange about the carnivore diet. Is AI too agreeable for its own good—or is it trying to keep the peace in a sea of pseudoscience? Finally, we explore the concept of the MediterrAsian diet, championed by Dr. William Li on The Diary of a CEO podcast. Fusing Mediterranean and Asian dietary wisdom, Dr. Li outlines a path rooted in sustainability, longevity, and delicious whole foods.

  • The Neurosurgeon Who Quit & Cole Robinson's Sugar Diet S03E07

    The Neurosurgeon Who Quit & Cole Robinson's Sugar Diet S03E07
    Apr 25 2025
    In this episode, we dive into two fascinating and controversial stories challenging the norms of modern health and wellness. Part 1: The MIT Neurosurgeon Who Quit First, we react to the viral story of a highly successful, MIT-educated neurosurgeon who walked away from a prestigious 20-year career. We explore his disillusionment with a medical system focused on surgeries over root causes, and his profound discovery about the power of lifestyle factors – like diet, sleep, stress reduction, and community – in true healing. We connect his insights to the Blue Zones, the work of Dr. Dean Ornish, and the pervasive issue of burnout. Part 2: Cole Robinson's "Sugar Diet" Then, we tackle the provocative claims of Cole Robinson (aka the 'Snake Diet' guy) and his argument that a high-sugar, low-fat diet is the key to getting ripped and achieving boundless energy – directly challenging keto and low-carb dogma. We analyze his confrontational style, break down the science behind energy metabolism and insulin sensitivity, and discuss whether there's method to his madness or just controversial hype. Join us as we unpack these unconventional perspectives, question the status quo in both medicine and diet culture, and explore different paths people take in search of better health, energy, and authenticity. What are your thoughts on these radical health shifts? Let us know your opinions on the medical system, lifestyle medicine, or the keto vs. high-carb debate!
