    How A Plant-Based Diet Saved My Life

    In this episode, I explain How A Plant-Based Diet Saved My Life after just having a life-threatening stroke as well as the steps I took afterward to regain my health.  Not only did I lose 18 lbs and drop my blood pressure back to normal, but I was also able to get off all of my medications in just 30 days.

Brand New Vegan

The initial episode of the Brand New Vegan podcast was very well done. The sound quality was great and the content was very informative. I've been following Chuck's Facebook posts and web site for several years. His recipes are always very tasty and not too complicated

Give this one s try, you won't be disappointed
