Dr Montgomery is exactly right! It took 2 months for my taste buds to change, but it was SO WORTH IT 😆 Vegetables started tasting like candy! I SO prefer whole food plant based eating now. On top of that, I’ve lost 25 lbs staying FULL ! I always related losing weight with being hungry and suffering, but I haven’t suffered at all. Just the opposite! I’m finally able to get full and still lose weight, and THATS WITH Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis! Unbelievable 😆 I do admit to planning cheat days for birthdays and holidays, but I don’t overdo because it will actually make me feel sick the next day! Wasn’t expecting that either! I know some people can’t cheat at all due to food addictions, which is optimal anyway. My cheats aren’t often though. Maybe once every few months. If you’re tired of being hungry, try whole food plant based eating! 💜
Thanks for sharing. This is a remarkable transformation.
That’s wonderful! Good for you! 👏👏👏
Raw vegan almost 6 months and I've noticed that my salads are now sweet - never thought that would be the case!
Excellent, same with me
I’ve been listening to Dr. Brooke Goldberg and changed my eating. I was already healthy but I increased my nutrition and cut dairy and meat and 99% of processed foods. I don’t have cravings, stay full, and have so much energy!!!
Dr Montgomery is the best. His openness and ability to communicate the complex in such a simple way is amazing
I agree AJ. Dr Montgomery is a real blessing. I’ve learned so much in 2 videos.
I have been taking Ozempic and found it to be true that I lost weight, was constipated, never a problem before use, severely nauseated from time to time a day or two after use and I stop using it for a moment and the weight came back and the A1C went up higher that it had ever been. I monitored myself by always asking my doctor for my numbers. Most doctors feel challenged when you ask a lot of questions. They act reluctant when you ask for your numbers. I changed my diet and by way of elimination, not cold turkey, but one item at a time. First all meat, most breads and crackers, still working on occasional dairy( butter on a baked potato or an occasional bread roll) and sugar is definitely a struggle. Even sugar is occasional for me. Trying to increase my exercise in different ways. Mostly water aerobics. Thank you for all your hard work Dr. B.
Keep up the Great work. Encouragement for others.
Dr Montgomery’s presentation is spot on. I have been prescribed multiple medications that have caused side effects and had to argue with my clinicians to get them to see this. Recording medicines in Apple Health is a good way for patients to understand drug interactions and side effects
So many complex topics, and explained in normal everyday English so all can understand it. He has a gift for that thanks!
Thank you Chef AJ and Dr Montgomery!
Chef AJ, we love you! So pleasing to watch your interviews. Dr.Montgomery is so honest, sincere, answers to the point & instils confidence. Thank you.
Love this guy..what a great, humble doctor..much thanks❤

My pleasure!
My greatest pleasure
Such an important podcast. Thank you Dr Montgomery and Chef AJ for presenting this important topic
Dr Montgomery is great!
Plant based and more whole health based. Refreshing and necessary.
Got off all meds and have been on plant based diet. My whole nervous system immediately got better and functioning as it should.
Could you specify which plant based foods you found helpful in helping to heal your nervous system? How soon did you see results?
Spinach, bok choy, celery, cucumber, tomato, green leafy lettuce, garlic, green onion, every day.
Within a couple of weeks, also used basaltic dressing
@@DaveSteen-ve2tg I appreciate your answering my question. Just to confirm you ate this salad combo along with balsamic dressing once a day? Which salad dressing brand? (There’s so many with chemicals and heavy oils.) Any other foods and meals or did you stick strictly to that? I just want to make sure I get that right amount of detail and tips as I embark on this journey. I appreciate your tips Dave! ☺️
@@YahsLittleFlock A big salad every day. Red wine vinegar with olive oil or organic basalmic. At least 24 ounces of Berkey filtered water also every day.
He is a good person…thanks to both of you!🌷☺️
Such a great Cardiologist! Super helpful!
REMEMBER WHEN THE PHARMACY ALWAYS INCLUDED THE PAPERWORK THAT CAME INSIDE THE MED BOX? FOR YEARS NOW, WE HAVE HAD TO REMEMBER TO ASK FOR IT. I WONDER WHY IT CHANGED.
This was very informative, thank you!
Great interview chef AJ! And great hat , am with you from the Netherlands, it’s still cold here and windy! Very kind greetings as always ❤
Wow this was a very helpful interview.
Thanks again for the helpful information.❤
❤❤❤Loved your presentation!! Thanks to both of you for sharing this information! God bless you, both!!
Thank you for speaking out about this. I wish you did this five years ago. It is greatly needed for those who believe in healing through unadulterated and raw food with no pesticides or herbicides and medicine only as wmergency intervention. Do you have any dr resources in GA? And then are the foods that our vitamins and minerals and drugs are extracted from containing these cides? Is it tested? I see nothing on the labeling. Are the vitamins and minerals we buy heat processed thereby changing the moleculae structure and/or nutrient value of the product? How often are the dieticians food value charts updated for nutritional content? For example, I heard that broccoli may have contaoned around 25 mg of iron in the early 1900's and now we are lucky if it contains 2 mg. If the food nutritional value charts state thatt foods contain certain dosages of certain nutrients, is it cooked or raw or what? Then, does the FDA mandate farmers and raw food producers and sellers to have that dosage and nutrient contents? I believe in the venefits of raw food but can't seem to find any standards, laws, and rules on US produced crops and imported crops. This must have an effect on this movement.
Happy Valentine’s Day
I really enjoyed listening to him. Very knowledgeable!
Thank you!
We agree!
❤Hello Chef AJ and Doctor Montgomery, thank you so much for such valuable information, as i am trying to get off of pills and needed to hear this. 🎉
Super interesting interview with information that is just what I need to know
Glad it was helpful!
How can you get your doctor to have a conversation with you before they give you another pill?
Thank you for another great interview.
What do you think about Dr Peter D'Adamo's book, Eat Right For Your Blood Type?
I have a heart valve needs replaced it’s been stated it’s moderate I’m on a plant based sos free but insurance will not pay for it until it’s sever what do I do
These meds also cause psychiatric/psychological issues... medication induced psychosis and more.. please be careful especially for our elders... we want them safe.. well.. and loved.. and the lady that had issues with her blood pressure its usually thoughts.. psychological thoughts and your surroundings, relationships, or job.. change those and you can change your blood pressure and also hydration is key for blood pressure to reduce
Diagnosed with congested heart disease, I've been whole food plant base 31 days based on Dr. Montgomery's advice. My symptoms are almost all gone. What book did you hold up to the camera with the illustration of the tree with the branches and the root with Nutrition at the bottom and where can I purchase ? Love your work Chef AJ.
Stephanie - how long have you been dx'ed with CHF?
I am sorry that you were diagnosed with that but glad that you are feeling better with no symptoms. What foods and meals did you find to be helpful in your healing journey? Could you be very detailed? I am embarking on this whole food planet-based journey and could use some tips? Thank you!☺️
While on Lasartin Blood pressure I got Ventricular tachycardia at a rate of 160 so I was put on matoperal and left I was left on Lasartin. Which V tach is a side effect. I am off both now
I have spent a year going back and forth with my elderly father's doctor to reduce his BP medications (they have him on FIVE). We ran out of Losartin and did not refill. His BP has been 111 over 58 with pulse at 50. He is frequently complaining of no energy. This week, I firmly insisted that they address his quality of life. Doctor starte listing long list of side effects of these medications. It would have been good to tell my dad this 20 years ago!! Anyway, he agreed that heart rate and BP were too low. Omitted Losartan and reduced amlodipine. It has been like pulling teeth to get strategies to take my father off of this stuff. The nutritional changes we've made have (I believe) causes him not to need these meds.
I live in UK without health insurance because medical care is free. Can i be treated by dr Montgomeryhealth for recent MI and palpitation and high blood pressure. I was 212 pounds and is now down to 147 yet bp is higher than b4 weight loss. I am confused.
I like no medication and I love vegan medicinal diet. The preorder book bonus is lovely,Thanks 4 it and tge show too !👏❤Happy Valentine’s Day !❤
Thank you too!
Really enjoyed this show the only thing I’m struggling with is a whole microwave thing. My husband has no choice but to cook his food at work in the microwave. We are not cooking it in the microwave we just reheat our food in the microwave. And when I’ve made certain foods are really hard to reheat in a pan so we count on the microwave. So that’s really upsetting to me that there was talk about it maybe causing issues. We don’t stand right in front of it because we know that’s not good but I don’t know what I’d do if I couldn’t use the microwave so that was kind of upsetting to me. But other than that we’re on a plant-based and I totally believe in everything the doctor was saying about health in a plant-based diet. I just never heard anything about a microwave being bad to heat your food in.
Try a convection oven. Takes a tad longer but it's a small oven about the size of a microwave. Tossed mine out over 16 years ago
Yes doc, the reason I don't take medicine
Do you believe in Orthomolecular Nutrition?
DEAR Chef AJ...... Do you have any references for a plant based primary care doc and plant based nutritionist along with a plant based endocrinologist please.
Please email help@chefaj.com
@@CHEFAJ will do.Thank you
Dr. Soham Patel in Florida is a wonderful plant based endocrinologist.
What do think about Taking Metropolol? Is it a Blood Pressure Drug or is it a Heart Drug? My Doctor Told me its For High Blood Pressure, And a Friend of Mine Who is a Nurse, told me its a Heart Drug. I think it is Hurting Me.
Metoprolol slows down your heart rate. I was put on it for severe high blood pressure but will try going vegan to see if it can lower my bp hopefully I can get off meds too.
I would like to work w Dr Montgomery in going off my BP meds. How can I consult with him? Im in CT but would be willing to fly to Houston!

Oxalates in plants. I am sensitive to some plants. How can I do a plant based diet?
Avoid the ones you are sensitive to and enjoy all the others!
I don’t want to be anyone’s Guinea pig.
