Amazing you can reverse clogged arteries! Dr. Ornish should get the Nobel Prize in Physiology/Medicine! It is an incredible insight that mass media need to cover more! Thanks, Maria!

💕Great interview! Love the idea Undo it!! I’m recovering from hand surgery & lots of pain. Thanks for keeping my mind interested in meaningful podcast for positive change. Feeling better knowing the changes I’ve made are in the right direction. Walking, eating more fruits & vegetables taking time for positive Hygge happy moments all are beneficial for my brain health. This has been a tough week & Maria your book “ I’ve been thinking” has kept me uplifted & positive in healing! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! 😘💕💃🏻👍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

I've done very scientific & food journaling experimentation on myself for 2 decades, & have found that an anti-aging diet is a whole food -- (no processed food at all) & no sugar, including no fruit -- diet. Fruit has been so adulterated over the centuries to be larger & higher in sugar. And, I have come to believe we might actually reach a quota in life of how much sugar (unlike any other food resource) our bodies can take in. And, unfortunately, we take in so much sugar in our youth with the current Standard American Diet (SAD), that most Americans probably meet that limit in their 20s. I recognize it's an extreme & very unusual position, but I truly think, look & feel so much better when I remove all sugar (including fruit) from my diet. The proof is in the very noticeable results I experience from eliminating all sugar, including fruit, sugar substitutes, & even natural sweeteners such as stevia (even in it's whole leaf form) from my diet. I agree with so much of Dr. Ornish says. However, besides disagreeing with his position on fruit/sugar, I do also disagree with his position on meat. Humans are omnivores. I very much agree that we should mostly eat a plant-based diet, but I do think having one small piece (1/5th pound) of meat (organic grass fed) or fish (wild caught) once per day is the perfect amount for me. Lastly, I have only recently realized how powerfully beneficial many herbs (in their whole form) are. With the outbreak of COVID, I have learned a lot more about anti-viral, anti-bacterial, &/or anti-inflammatory herbs (such as dandelion root, clove, anise, star anise, white willow bark, nettle, etc.). They have made my muscles & joints feel better than ever before & significantly improved how I physically feel & my energy level. An added side benefit is they have further improved my skin & made my nails stronger than ever before. I mainly make low-heat teas out of them.

Another great conversation!

[@danielcady4976]

People are slow to accept the claims made by Ornish and others about recently discovered benefits of a good diet, exercise, meditation, etc., because they are so unbelievable. Yet they are absolutely true.

[@TheNayak12]

What's he is saying absolutely... True

[@tageulefeinberg2539]

I'm ok with the diet. But I wish he would ease up with the purpose stuff.

[@eriksmit1804]

He is superb...she is a little daft..whoever she is. Well he got the message across !!

[@davewegener5049]

She is Maria Shriver -- a Kennedy... Daughter of Eunice (Kennedy) Shriver... Niece of JFK, RFK, Ted, etc.... You can see the Kennedy-ness in her face... She was once married to Governor Arnold Swarzenegger...

[@wandaweber3123]

You don’t know Marie Shiver she a Kennedy

[@rosalbadelriogarcia9598]

Sadly there are simpler ways to get people healthy ....

[@sandrabentley1420]

Makes big bucks from his books, but in 40 years nothing has changed, he just repeats the same thing that all health book sellers have over the years, same old. Stress is not new! Been around since the 30's. Is he a psychologist now? He's like Dr. Oz. He's become way too hollywood commercial and not for the masses. Now he promotes veganism! Well that's why vegans have so many mental issues. He promotes low fat and high carbs. Not enough saturated fats for the brain! No B12, no Omega 3's, no D3 on and on. All necessary for brain health.

[@JW4REnvironment]

Wait, Dr. Ornish shows us good medicine. He even got Medicare to authorize his plant based lower fat diet program so Medicare will pay for those in need! That is reaching out to all people and certainly is not elitist or commercial! Ornish is a real doctor who wants people to get healthier versus charging for ineffective surgeries and stents.
