Dr. Ritu Saluja-Sharma has been at the Johns Hopkins Medicine-Sibley Memorial Hospital in Maryland for 15 years, dealing with every life-threatening condition you can think of. She has since been investigating how we can prevent these very conditions. We delve into epigenetics, what affects our health and longevity the most, and how we can live better, healthier lives as active people who make a difference in the world, but don't always have time for ourselves.

In this episode, we get into what made Rambhai the out-of-the-ordinary teacher, how he lives with his family & extended family in one house, what he saw in his childhood and if overuse of technology is worse or better than drug addictions.

In India, many families have drug addictions; young fathers and males die of drug overdoses or alchohol related cancers and diseases. After retiring, Rambhai Patel began an anti-addictions educational program, and rode buses all over India to teach hundreds of thousands of underprivileged children about the dangers of drug use and addictions so that their families have a chance to stay strong and healthy. Both his sons join to translate Rambhai’s Indian Gujrati, his native tongue; Dhaval Patel is a software engineer at Bloomberg and started a data science Youtube channel with 400K subscribers to teach youth tech after being diagnosed with an incurable autoimmune disease, and Bhavin Patel was a student who was told he won’t succeed in life, but now has a multi-media marketing company he built that employs some of India’s best university graduates and has contracts with US companies. 

Writing a review on Changemakers helps more people hear about initiatives like these that people are creating to make our society a better place. Contact me on Twitter @TheMayCooper. This is also on community radio, CFUZ Peach City Radio in British Columbia and CKWR 98.5 in Waterloo, Ontario with a reach of more than 1.5 million people.

In Part 2, Dr. Meir Schneider tells us riveting stories about people with debilitating diseases who came to his school and were able to change their life around by working on their mobility and flexibility with determination and a will to become different, healthier people. Dr. Schneider himself was born with a serious disability and yet is often healthier and with more physical abilities than some of his colleagues born with none; since creating the School for Self Healing, he's able to help hundreds of people reverse a spectrum of debilitating conditions, and gain not only their eyesight, mobility and health back--but their independence and dignity.
