150: Exploring Food Addiction, Shame and Transformation with Chuck Carroll
In this episode of Veggie Doctor Radio, I have a honest conversation with Chuck Carroll about his experience with food addiction and personal transformation.
About featured guest:
At just 5'6" Chuck Carroll weighed a staggering 420 pounds. His 66-inch waist was expanding rapidly courtesy of a 10,000 calorie daily diet and out of control food addiction. At one point he did not think he was going to live to see 30 years old. But Chuck was able to lose an incredible 280 pounds and has kept the weight off for more than 10 years. Today he weighs 140 pounds and proudly wears pants with a 32-inch waist. An NFL player even nicknamed him "The Weight Loss Champion!"
He is host of the popular The Exam Room podcast for PCRM and is sharing his story in hopes of inspiring others who feel they are destined to remain trapped in an unhealthy body. If he has learned anything it is that change is possible! Everyone can have the brighter and healthier future they've always wanted!

148.5: How This Songwriter is Using Her Music to Change the World
In this episode of Veggie Doctor Radio, I interview Vegan Queen V about her journey and we get to listen to one of her beautiful and gripping songs.
About featured guest:
Vegan Queen V is a passionate animal rights activist singer-songwriter, who uses her music as a platform to give animals a voice, when they often have none.
Vegan Queen V is keen to raise awareness of the animals lives, and spread the vegan message far and wide with her hit songs and hard-hitting lyrics.
Winner of the VEGFESTUK competition 2018, she has travelled the UK playing vegan festivals and gigs up and down the country.
2019/2020 saw her collaborate with vegan celebrity Niko Rittenau, with which she toured The Veggie World Tour Germany.
We are excited to announce, Vegan Queen V is set to release her debut album in 2021, with the hope to reconnect people to the animals and promote veganism.

148: This Doctor Became a Patient and it Changed Her Perspective on Nutrition
In this episode of Veggie Doctor Radio, I have a conversation with Dr. Laura Freeman about her journey into plant-based nutrition and lifestyle medicine.
About featured guest:
Dr. Laura Freeman obtained her Medical Degree from the University of Edinburgh in 2006. She completed her vocational training in General Practice in Manchester in 2011.

Both within and outside of her General Practice, Dr. Freeman has developed a strong interest for plant based nutrition and optimising health through lifestyle choices. In 2019, Dr. Freeman became a diplomat of the International Board for Lifestyle Medicine. In her position as Medical Director for Plant-Based Health Online, she leads a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals in a first of its kind, online plant-based healthcare service.
Her focus is putting her passion in Lifestyle Medicine into practice for her patients and watching the incredible success of their lifestyle interventions. Dr. Freeman has been commended by her colleagues and patients alike for her unwavering calm and kind demeanour, her compassion and care for her patients as well as her sound clinical knowledge, skill and judgment. Her patients have endorsed her input for optimising their diet, prescribing individualised exercise prescriptions, stress management and improving sleep habits.
Dr. Laura Freeman also certified as a CHIP (Complete Health Improvement Program) Practitioner.

Customer Reviews
Love this podcast!
I have recently discovered Dr. Yami, and I really appreciate her honest and straightforward approach to health. I have learned so much about nutrition and health from listening to the podcast and truly enjoy it. Thank you for helping my family and I on our health journey, Dr. Yami!
The Doctor Is In!
Dr. Yami is simply the best! She consistently provides actionable information about how to maximize your family's health and wellness in a delightfully digestible package. So grateful for this resource!
Fantastic podcast!
I recently discovered Dr. Yami’s podcast and it has changed my life! I published my first cookbook on transitioning to whole food, plant based eating in March 2020 and then the COVID lockdown started. Having recently moved to a different part of the state, I really missed my plant based friends and community. Dr. Yami’s podcasts reminded what a wonderful community of plant based eaters and professionals exists out there. Her podcasts cover a broad array of useful and inspirational topics and I love how she asks each of her guests to tell the story of how they became plant based eaters. She is an inspiration! Thank you! Elise Lovejoy
