One Physician Changing Many People’s Lives!

Like most Argentinians, Dr. Diego Ponieman grew up thinking that a meal wasn’t a meal without meat.  As he began his medical career and counseled obese and diabetic patients, he recommended a low-carb, meat-centered, and portion-controlled diet. Unfortunately, these strategies almost never worked. The vast majority of his patients didn’t lose weight.  Dr. Ponieman didn’t know what to do next; like many physicians, he’d received almost no nutrition education during medical school or at medical conferences after graduation. Dr. Ponieman himself was already on blood pressure and cholesterol medication by the time he was 30.  His brother and father had the same conditions, so Dr. Ponieman assumed this was his genetic fate. But he was curious, and began combing through...

Making Ripples Across the Pond

It is amazing how a simple change made by one person can have a ripple effect on many lives within a community.  Meet John Munro, CEO of Wessex Heartbeat in Wessex, England. Wessex Heartbeat is a non-profit organization that exists to ensure that people being treated at the Wessex Cardiac Centre are provided with the best possible care and support.  An average of 30,000 people go to the Wessex Cardiac Centre each year for a variety of cardiac health–related problems.   In 2004, John would not have described himself as the picture of health. At 6’3” and 20 stone (or 280 lbs.), he was overweight, and knew that he was not a good role model for his charity.  John’s father, who...

Making positive changes with Dr. Matt Kesler

When Dr. Matthew Kesler joined the Air Force, he was ready for a change. He had worked as a pediatrician for 14 years and in his words was “burned out and ready for an adventure.” After joining the Air Force, he was stationed at Yokota Air Base in Japan from February 2014 to July 2018. During that time he initiated three plant-based Jumpstarts using the PlantPure Health & Weight Loss Seminar—something that had never been done before! Dr. Kesler’s interest in plant-based eating began on November 1, 2016, when a friend sent him Dr. Greger’s How Not To Die YouTube video. He watched it and has been plant-based ever since. He also completed the eCornell course, read books, and attended...

Nelson's 6-7-2019 update

I am feeling optimistic today! I just heard something I have never heard from the mainstream media. On a CBS news show, a physician reporter discussed a provocative new study, which suggests that both red and white meats have similar effects on cholesterol. The physician reporter explained that the food-cholesterol connection is more complicated than it was previously assumed, and that perhaps animal protein, present in both red and white meats, is a key factor in causing high cholesterol. She also discussed the gut biome as a possible factor in this chain of causation. And best of all? She encouraged viewers to move from animal to plant foods.

A PlantPure Testimonial: Eloise Chocalas

The story of Eloise’s plant-based transition is highly unusual because throughout her life, quite a few physicians suggested she look into a vegan diet before she actually made the change. Her story begins in the 1980s when she was working in Silicon Valley and was a self-described type A personality. At 122 lbs., she looked healthy on the outside, but had high cholesterol.  Interestingly, her physician recommended that she change over to a vegetarian diet to control her cholesterol. At the time, Eloise did not take his advice, but later wished she could turn back the clock to transition to a plant-based lifestyle much sooner.

2019: The Year of the Vegan!

I do not consider myself to be a trendsetter. In fact, I am typically the last person to adopt a new fashion—usually right before it goes out of style! So when I reviewed the recent statistics associated with plant-based eating, you can imagine my surprise when I realized I really am a trendsetter!   The trends around the vegan/plant-based movement are nothing short of amazing. 31% of Americans now practice meat-free days each week. Last year, 51% of chefs in the U.S. added vegan options to their menus. 6% of Americans now identify themselves as vegan, which is an increase of 600% in just three years! Fourteen years ago, when my family and I began our transition to a plant-based lifestyle,...

A PlantPure Seminar Testimonial: Annie Oliver

When January 1st, 2018 rolled around, Annie Oliver knew she had to make a change to improve her health.  Like many women, Annie had struggled with her weight for years, gaining and then losing the same 25 pounds.  She tried the Paleo diet and lost 30 pounds, but unfortunately, she regained the weight. The thought of eating all of that meat and cheese again literally made her feel ill.   Two things happened that helped guide her to a solution.  Annie’s sister had recently changed to a vegan lifestyle and, as a result, had lost weight and felt great.  At about the same time, she saw an ad for the PlantPure Health and Weight Loss pilot program in her local newspaper...
