Curious about conquering your sweet tooth without compromising your health? Then you have a lot to learn from Lynne Bowman. 

Lynne is an expert and advocate of kitchen table culture and the gift of diabetes. She is a grandma and an author. She published two books with actress Deidre Hall. And her most recent book: “Brownies for Breakfast: A Cookbook for Diabetics and the People Who Love Them” is available on Amazon. The title says "Cookbook," but it’s so much more than that. It's a great resource for transitioning to a whole food plant-based lifestyle.

In this episode, we talk about all the great wellness advice she’s acquired from 75 years of thriving – including managing Type 2 diabetes with a plant-based diet, sugar alternatives and what she wishes she did differently in the 1960s.

As of 2018, 42.4% of American adults are obese. We're eating ourselves to death. Are nearly half of Americans uninformed on what to eat? Doubtful. There are more than 60,000 diet books available on Amazon. The problem is confusion. All the information creates unnecessary confusion and constraints. I'm here to set the record straight and simplify the noise. 

What’s the Plant-First Diet®? It’s the framework I use to make my food choices. It’s based on the evidence I’ve evaluated from becoming certified in both Exercise Nutrition and Plant-Based Nutrition on top of reading dozens of books and hundreds of studies. I use the Plant-First Diet® when I want to lose weight and slim down. I use the Plant-First Diet® when I need to fuel my body for fitness goals. And I use it when I’m just looking to sustain my body weight and feel my best - avoid getting sick and staying as mentally sharp and high energy as possible. Here's how it all works.
