Kate Dunbar, patient advocate for Plant-Based Health Professionals UK
Dr Shireen Kassam Haematologist and Certified Lifestyle Medicine Physici
As a stressed, 40-year-old primary school teacher, Kate succumbed to inflammatory arthritis, later diagnosed as psoriatic arthritis. It seemed like every joint in her body was inflamed and in hindsight, she realised that she had suffered a few previous undiagnosed attacks over the years, but this was the most debilitating. Everything was extremely painful if not impossible; walking, sitting, and even sleeping. She was signed off work for a year. Thankfully with medication, her condition was brought under relative control. Soon after, 15 years ago, and with support from her husband, she embarked on a vegan diet and was able to slash her medication by more than half.
Four years ago she discovered a whole food plant-based (WFPB) diet, and it’s amazing restorative and disease preventing benefits. At last she is completely in remission and medication free.
With a new lease of life, she is an active community member, founder of Hunstanton Community Orchard, graphic designer, ceramicist and community arts provider. She loves cooking and growing vegetables. She is a passionate advocate of plant-based nutrition and exercise, now runs half marathons regularly.
She is beyond thankful that there are plant-based doctors and other health professionals who are championing a WFPB diet so that other people need not go through the torture of psoriatic arthritis and other dreadful health conditions. Kate’s story has been published in the American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine.

I thought Kate was in her forties. The power of plants!
She's 58?! Hard to believe. Great story. Thanks, AJ.
Kate's story is amazing! I'm so glad she followed her intuition rather than listening to her conventional doctors. Yay for finding her passion in being a vegan runner! 💜🏃♀️
I love Kate's story, it is similar to my own. I was diagnosed in my late 40's with osteoarthritis and put on three different medications and told that it would only get worse in time. It was so depressing to be so young with a degenerative disease. My husband told me about a conversation he had at a work lunch that led me to watch Game Changers and then Forks Over Knives and that convinced me to try WFPB. I went all in, and within 4 months I was off all my medications! My rheumatologist also doesn't think it is food related but I completely disagree! Kate and I are proof that this works! Way to go Kate! And thank you Chef AJ for featuring such uplifting and important stories!

Sure sounds like dairy. That was what caused my joint issues. I have had no issues as a vegan for 10 years. Currently 70 years old.
Amazing interview! Thank you for doing that. So inspirational and she’s such a beautiful lady. I would’ve guessed that she’s 35 years old.
Interesting story ,well done for your perseverance Kate.
I ate a lot of sugar on Chrismas dinner, like cake and sugary desserts, 2 hours later my left elbow was so inflamed and painfull, could not lift it up to touch my nose, like my cells in my body was punishing me for eating all this sugar lol.
What a truly, truly amazing and inspiring story, so happy for Kate 💜 so powerful and touching. Wonderful to hear, and also such a great conversation. Thank you so much, to everyone involved 😌
Loved Kate's story/information. I needed to hear it today... feeling a bit tired today, but i had a light bulb moment when Kate mentioned stone fruit... then I remembered how many dates I'd eaten recently, so my lethargy made so much sense!

Wonderful story! 58? I'm truly gobsmacked. I'd have thought Kate was early 40s at the very most.
Great interview, very inspiring and hope this will give hope to many ❤️
As the UK has free healthcare, I would have thought it would be financially beneficial for NHS to promote wfpb (sos free). America on paper would be harder to convince due to large pharmaceutical companies and meat and dairy association having such a grasp on legislation and money.
There is I believe still a lot of lobbying by the pharmaceutical companies, along with the meat and dairy industries here in the UK. General Practitioners receive very little training about nutrition. Hopefully one day we will all get there; a WFPB world might slowly heal!
Thank you for sharing your story, Kate! Do you have information about the oil free Indian cooking course?
Thank you for having this psoriatic arthritis story on. I have been on WFPB for 15 months. Still on meds coming from high weight loss. I have hope it will go away now.

I have Ra. I get monthly infusions I still have pain thru my whole body. I am going to change my diet to Wfpb diet. I am sir it will help me.
Fitness is medicine wellness less stress anxiety depression studying health coach
Who is the lady that she met that helped her in remission?
I am still struggling with food. I am a diabetic and having premenstrual and postmenopausal issues, gaining weight and depression low energy..what to do??
Read one of Dr. Joel Fuhrman or Dr. John McDougall's books, or go to their websites, and just start. Find your 'why' to keep you motivated. Dr. Brooke Goldner has a green smoothie protocol that can knock issues out more quickly. Google these doctors. All the best to you!
I'd also suggest Dr Barnard's book Your Body in Balance because it deals with hormonal/menstrual issues. Think about why you want to change, your health issues will help motivate you, and once you start seeing the benefits and feeling better, you'll gain momentum to continue. Try buying less animal products or cut them out all together. Replace them with whole plant foods. Try new things! Check out AJ's recipe videos! Go check out Plantiful Kiki's UA-cam channel too! Keep watching these live videos, we're here every day and will cheer you on 🙌💕🌻 Good luck ☺️
Stop dairy in all forms. Then work on stopping oil. The books above are good resources, and look their websites.
Thank you! What kind of herbs and salt free seasoning did she season her food to make it tasteful and not plan?

@@Herbsholistic Thank you
What is a whole food plant based diet??
Google it for lots of info. It's eating only vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds in whole form.
My son is 29, has down syndrome and chronic psoriasis. We have already tried used the biological injection. I'm afraid of the side effects.. Trying the natural way, but the psoriasis is coming back. It may be his gut. Any help with diet? Like taking away 1 thing at a time? It would be very helpful.
👏👏👏🌱❤️🕊
