Rip welcomes author and health coach, Janet Verney, to the PLANTSTRONG Podcast.
For 40 years, Janet suffered from an undiagnosed illness that affected her lungs and gut, leading to years of medical treatments, antibiotics, and even a cumbersome breathing machine.
In 2013, she started focusing on optimizing her health through lifestyle changes and a whole foods, plant-based diet and it was only then that her real healing began. As she says in the episode, she now has control over her illness. It no longer controls her. Today, she is affectionately referred to as the "plant-based princess of positivity" by friends and clients.
Janet is such a beautiful, inspirational spirit!
Wonderful interview again!!! ❤from the Netherlands
I think it's really important to have a video about chewing greens and oxalate reduction. That point hasn't been touched up on before and seeing everyone have so many health issues in regards to smoothies - it only makes sense to help out to save the world from more health issues! I definitely would watch that video.
Speaking of WOMEN WARRIORS!!!! Such an inspiration!
Love it! --- "If you don't change your lifestyle, your lifestyle may change you!" WOW! Such a profound statement!
So much hard-earned wisdom and positivity!
Wow! Excellent interview. Janet is a treasure for the plant based world❤️
God bless Janet for doing the hard work for her emotional health and creating a positive impact on the world 🥰💜🙏
This was a delightful interview. Thank you!
Love this interview!
Awesome podcast I enjoyed it immensely thank you RIP❤
Great interview and very interesting, inspirational woman. I agree the cookbook pictures are beautiful. Am getting book! ❤🌱
Janet is speaking to me on all levels. Thank you for this interview.
This was a very meaningful interview. I needed to take notes.
Wonderful interview! Re: cooking greens for thyroid health - brassica vegetables, like kale, cabbage, broccoli, etc... contain compounds known as "goitrogens" which means they can disrupt normal thyroid function and ultimately contribute to goiters. They interfere with the body's ability to synthesize iodine properly, which is important in thyroid health. So, for those who may be hypothyroid, already struggling to make enough thyroid hormone, goitrogens can make this even worse. Fortunately, cooking these foods takes away the goitrogenic effects. We don't have to avoid these foods if we have thyroid issues, just cook the brassicas, since aside from the goitrogenic effect if eaten raw, they otherwise have so much good nutrition to offer. From what I have read, people who do NOT have thyroid issues don't need to worry about this so much and can more readily eat raw kale and other raw brassica foods.
With regard to gluten-free grains, I used to LOVE eating a lot of brown rice. But I have learned that rice these days from pretty much every source in the world, including organic rice - brown, white or wild, has a lot of problems with arsenic in it. I've read that some suggest cooking it in a lot more water than the usual ratio, and then pouring off a lot of that water to reduce the arsenic content. But I ended up exploring a lot of gluten-free whole grains like quinoa, buckwheat and oat groats, as well as some that do contain gluten like rye berries and a vast variety of wheat berries like einkorn, farro, etc... to the point I don't even eat rice at all anymore, and I don't really miss it, either since all these other grains have so much to offer in terms of taste and nutrition. I would rather completely sidestep the issue of arsenic so I quit eating the rice, but I wouldn't just stop eating rice without replacing it with other whole and healthy grains like the ones I listed.
WOW! She really went to the root, thank you for sharing this. I can relate to you on so many levels... Even with diseases. Beautiful person, thank you for having her on, Rip!
Thank you Janet, for the great information. You mentioned that the oats you use are .organic and glyphosate free. Glad that you mentioned glyphosate, a dangerous chemical that harms the microbiome. However, I was under the impression that organic certified food was always glyphosate free, Am I mistaken?
Excellent 😊
I noticed a new vegan in the vegan community, could you please interview Javant @ Healty vegan eating ? He makes a veggie ground meat substitute that's out of this world. It oil free and wheat free.. he's lost alot of weight going on a vegan lifestyle..😊
He's on UA-cam and also on Instagram as well..
very cool - I am from CT too 3:45 so many famous people are. I'd love to see CT go vegan - because it already is, but even more so - in case I go back.
