Plant Based Nutrition - How To Make The Switch. A plant-based diet is renowned for fostering cognitive health by providing essential nutrients like antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Abundant in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, this diet supports optimal brain function, enhancing memory, concentration, and overall cognitive performance. The anti-inflammatory properties of plant-based foods contribute to a healthier vascular system, reducing the risk of cognitive decline. Embracing a plant-centric diet not only nourishes the body but also fortifies the mind, promoting long-term cognitive well-being.
Grab a snack before pushing play because today's episode may make you hungry! I'm speaking with Dr. Yami Cazorla-Lancaster. In addition to her pediatric practice, Dr. Yami is a certified lifestyle medicine physician, health and wellness coach, author, and speaker.
Her podcast, Veggie Doctor Radio, explores diet and nutrition, healthy habits, behavior change, and motivation. New episodes are released weekly, featuring leading experts in plant-based food and healthy living. I'm glad she was able to take the time to chat with me about ways we can easily incorporate plant-based meals into our crazy lives.

Packed with foods that can cause inflammation, a "traditional" American diet is one of the more accessible lifestyle choices we can alter. After hearing Dr. Yami's advice, I think you'll agree that we can begin to make this critical shift.
