Tips for a Greener Life and the Surprising Benefits of Gardening | Eat to Live Podcast

[@lavondahawkins]

I loved all the gardening tips. I also loved what Dr. Fuhrman mentioned about vaccines. Nothing but the truth!

[@atlanticvegansurfer8144]

Thank you Dr. Furhman for mentioning Helen and Scott Nearing. My In laws were friends with them , and Learned so much from them . Your Daughter might be interested in The Good Life Center which was the Nearings home in Maine . It is open to the public , and the gardens there are still abundant and are overseen by local volunteers who distribute the produce in them to local families. Also ,Thank you both for your amazing wisdom and enrichng our lives.

Is it just me or is her naivety kind of heartwarming?

[@flyshacker]

I have to say, I had total respect for Dr. Fuhrman before I even watched this video. But after hearing him talk about trusting nature and staying away as far as possible from manmade medicines and vaccines, my respect went up 100X!! My wife and I have been 100% plant based for about a dozen years now, and I agree 100% with everything he said in this video. “The more you do it, the more you get into it!” We feel great, ideal weight, 2 meals a day, work out every other day at a gym. Go skiing every few days with a season pass, and we are in our early 70s. I used to grow sprouts, but this video gave me a pep talk to get back into it. I used to love growing food and composting - appreciate the cycle of life and the earthy smell of compost. Thanks, Dr. Fuhrman, for all you do to spread so many fantastic ideas for the best life we can live.

I love the local wisdom from this man

[@lisaspachuk486]

I tell all my patients to go to Dr Fuhrman's retreat. I wish I could tour the facility. Thank you Dr Fuhrman, you are a National Treasure 💜

[@bonniemullen4990]

[@Jim-uj3ty]

Being out in nature, gardening strengthens our immune systems.

[@VoytenTechnologies]

I noticed that after I’ve gardened for a while, my skin looks really healthy.

[@ClayTallStories]

This is Brilliant Dr. Fuhrman. 4 years ago I was fighting a losing battle with advanced prostate cancer. Two large tumors were cut out and a radical prostatectomy rendered me incontinent & lost of all function. My partner then left me. 3 years later on one meal with still no cancer but only to become sick with serious CVD and debilitating angina that required a stent, which I did not get. Only 8 months ago I switched to living purely off the vegetables in my garden plus mushrooms from the forest and I bought flax & chia seeds to eat. Zero oils, sugars, and nothing from a packet. Basically your nutrition diet. In 7 months of a complete switch from animal & fish (I am a hunter)and I now have my life back. I walk 5 km each day again with no angina, 30 minutes of weights, and sometimes I run but most of all I spend a good deal of my time in my garden using the no dig method to grow my food. Thank you for your wisdom. This video with your daughter was profound.

[@rachaels6538]

Great video, very informative, thank you!

[@ivanahanus5101]

I love this video and I love Dr. Fuhrman. He has changed my attitude towards life. I share the same love and compassion for nature and growing your own food and enjoy gardening. Keep on doing what you are passionate about.

[@sugarmagnolia1475]

So start 1. Sprouts 2. Asparagus and bok choy 3. Fig and meiwa kumquat indoors in winter.

[@jamesigo6324]

Great interview!

[@jsarracino]

I really liked this episode!! I think having a young person who looks healthy ask difficult questions, including how to incorporate gardening into apartment living was golden. Please do more of these father-daughter talks. Jenna was a tough interviewer and got some detailed info out of Dr. F that is actionable!!

[@raewise6345]

The animal "waste" is why the soil is so great for our food. Many home farmers rotate the crops with the animal placement every few years for this reason 😍

[@jamesigo6324]

I share the good doctors enthusiasm with growing asparagus & watching them pop up daily.

[@joyschwab]

I love Dr. Furhman's approach to nutrition so much that I must ask: If an obese gardener was pitted against a Nutritarian who lived in a city condo, would you really bet on the gardener to live longer than the Nutritarian? Of course your trick question didn't say "Nutritarian" but used the phrase "plant-based," which, as you've pointed out could mean potato chips, corn fritters and other junk food. Anyway thanks for the great podcast!

[@cheryll.quintela9304]

Thank you for not pushing the Covid vacancies. My husband and I didn't get the jab.. Love the podcast videos..

[@annaklein7759]

You guys inspire me to keep going with my gardening!!!! I actually prefer the slow composting. I have the luxury of a lot of space though

[@sugarmagnolia1475]

Victory gardens are back!

[@raewise6345]

I have noticed that this has become my favorite subscription channel. I listened all day at work! Thank you both.

[@yossischuck9553]

Wonderful to see a “strait” well educated doctor talking about this view!

[@shamdhairampersad2942]

Hi to You Dr And Your beautiful daughter. Just love your chats together. Love gardening too. Learning so much here. Thanks you. From South Africa. ❤

[@lisengel2498]

What a great conversation - I really enjoyed your passion for growing a bit of your own food and honouring Nature. And all the good advice of growing asparagus, bok choi , a fig tree , comquat tree in the House, sprouts, mictogreens, broccoli seeds, After a week you have microgreens. Sprout your own Greens. And make your own compost. 🎶🍀🎵💚🐸

[@raewise6345]

I'm reading the book, The Good Life because of this video.....

[@happyandjoyful7916]

Thank you!😊

[@mariagoncalves6974]

I am so happy I came across this episode Dr. F I follow your request always for a long time but now I will have Jenna’s apartment gardening as well. Please keep this videos coming Love you two 😍

[@georgemarino434]

What a great team having your daughter as part of the channel. She has made your channel even better than ever! I love the questions and conversations you guys have. I've been thinking about getting into gardening and now after watching you guys I am inspired to start right now! Keep the videos going, they are very motivational helpful and interesting, THANK YOU!!

[@organiccleanfoodconnection]

It’s so much better growing your own micro greens. Most farmers market sell them harvested. They’re dying you have to eat the plants alive. That is the key to health eating plants alive

[@myrnaalexander2090]

Thank you so much for making this info available for everyone! So exciting to incorporate these concepts into my daily living!!

[@sircorkysriley4904]

i thought it was all of the above which I do. But as a fulltime year round gardener this is extremely exciting. And this is why I am gardening for the highest of highest quality. I give my plants all they need and in turn they give me more back. TNX DR Fuhrman. Compost compost compost.

[@Riekie1970]

Thank you Dr Fuhrman and Jenna for this great video❤.Now I also want to start growing micro greens😊

[@_-LG-_]

Thank you so much for this video. It’s very helpful and it answered so many questions that I’ve been wanting to ask Dr. Fuhrman.

[@kimberlydeprey]

Thank you. I will not till the soil in my garden. Wow that’s huge!

[@naturallawhealth9272]

Excellent conversation!! Thank you!!

[@organiccleanfoodconnection]

Trees love, compost tea

[@eileenkast4982]

Thanks so much for speaking out about the jabs. I was very surprised to hear Dr. Brakey recommend them

[@Ingrid0410]

Fabulous!!! Thank you!!! At a Dr visit for routine check up last week, my Dr told me I am at the age being over 60 for “disease progression” this is so typical! Thank you for your example, videos, books podcasts etc. I don’t think the aim though should be living to 100, rather living healthy, fit, feeling great, disease free👍👍👍👍🙏🙏

[@christopherhanlonsydney]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@KmmBev]

Great podcast. Soil is very important! Have you heard of Sadhguru's "Save Soil" campaign? If you're ever in the Mad River Valley (Vermont) stop by these farms Hartshorn's Organic farm, Knoll Farm, Von Trapp farm store. Also the Bear Roots farm market is my favorite place to get organic veggies😀

[@sugarmagnolia1475]

REGENERATIVE ORGANIC SOIL PRACTICES This is what to ask your coops, food stores, farms for. Compost public toilets also create usable soil.

[@jamesigo6324]

Kumquats can stay ripe on the tree for up to 6 months.

[@Hisloyalservantslistenlove613c]

Dr, you’re starting to look like Charlton Heston ( that’s a compliment ). So who will I start to look like if I stay on this diet ? … because right now I look like I’m 20 years older than I am.

[@QUENTINHARDAGE]

gardening, we learned at Boone retreat.

[@sugarmagnolia1475]

Grind compost, sprout roots help, add bacteria to " cook" compost to soil, important not to " cook " worms, they need it not to hot, and in soil immediately.

[@sugarmagnolia1475]

Red wiggler worms, best for compost.

[@sugarmagnolia1475]

Maiwa kumquat, fig trees, can be grown easily. Bok choy, asparagus are easy.

[@sugarmagnolia1475]

Even apartment living can host some plants or sprouting.

[@sugarmagnolia1475]

Where do you get the special bacteria?

[@miken1463]

Charles Dowding’s No dig approach is what he is emphasizing. Check out his channel. One of my favorite.

[@organiccleanfoodconnection]

Yes, it’s reality. You grow micro greens if you live in an apartment.

[@Cingearth]

The Arizon Biosphere ! What lessons have been learnt from the experience ? Jenny please ask your Dad ! Will be interested in his comments ??

[@ShroomFactory]

Happy 2025!

[@Mark_Wheeler]

I'd be careful about walking around barefoot, especially in regions with a high prevalence of hookworm.

[@sugarmagnolia1475]

All dirt is not equal. Know what's in it.

[@sircorkysriley4904]

I am also pretty much a full time barefooter so even better 👣👣👣👣👣

[@sugarmagnolia1475]

Plastic and endocrin disruptors are make it harder to keep healthy and optimal, now than in the 1980's.

[@sugarmagnolia1475]

Food grown in real soil as opposed to aquaponic chemicals, is more nutritional.

[@ggcruise]

Worms are not insects ... they are annelids!!

You need to hire an expert in sound studios. You can’t mount microphones on a desk if you’re going to bang your hands in it. Sadly this video is unusable.
