  Dr. Faraz Harsini: Animal Rights, Vegan Activism & Inspiring the Next Generation

  Sep 26, 202643 minS3

  Plant Based Coaches welcomes Dr. Faraz Harsini for an important conversation about animal rights, vegan activism, factory farming, animal testing, and what each of us can do to help create a more compassionate world. Dr. Harsini shares his experiences visiting college campuses across the United States and speaking with students about animal rights and veganism. He explains why college students can be especially receptive to these conversations: many are at a point in their lives when they are forming their values, questioning established systems, and making independent choices about the kind of world they want to help create. We also discuss the realities of factory farming and animal testing, the role vegan documentaries can play in opening people's eyes, and why education and outreach are so important to the animal rights movement. Dr. Harsini offers his perspective on how vegans can move beyond their own personal choices and become effective advocates for animals—whether through conversations, campus outreach, organized activism, or simply helping others understand why these issues matter. The conversation also looks at the bigger picture: healing our planet, creating a more compassionate relationship with animals, and showing people that activism doesn't have to be intimidating. You don't have to do everything—you can find a form of advocacy that fits your personality, skills, and comfort level and still make a difference.

  Can a Plant-Based Diet Reverse Type 2 Diabetes? | Peggy Kraus, MA, RCEP, CDCES

  Sep 13, 202630 minS3

  Can type 2 diabetes be reversed through lifestyle and a plant-based diet? This week on the Plant Based Coaches Podcast, Rich Hubbard and Dr. Suzanne Foxx welcome Peggy Kraus, MA, RCEP, CDCES , a clinical exercise physiologist and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist who has spent nearly three decades helping people improve their health. Peggy shares her experience working with clients with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes and the impressive changes she has witnessed through lifestyle intervention, including significant weight loss and dramatic improvements in A1C and blood sugar control. We discuss why many people with type 2 diabetes may be able to achieve remission, particularly when lifestyle changes are made early enough, and how factors such as the duration of diabetes, insulin resistance, and remaining pancreatic beta-cell function can affect the outcome. We also talk about type 1 diabetes. While type 1 diabetes cannot currently be reversed through diet and people with type 1 require insulin, improving diet and insulin sensitivity may help some individuals better manage their blood glucose and insulin requirements under appropriate medical supervision. Peggy brings a wealth of experience to the conversation. She holds a master’s degree in adult exercise and is certified in diabetes care and education and plant-based nutrition. She has spent almost 30 years working in cardiac rehabilitation and has counseled thousands of people on exercise, diet, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, weight management, and sustainable lifestyle change. Her philosophy focuses on practical, evidence-based habits rather than gimmicks or extreme approaches. She helps people understand how everyday choices involving food, movement, and lifestyle can have a powerful impact on metabolic and cardiovascular health. In this episode, we discuss: • Plant-based nutrition and type 2 diabetes • A1C and blood sugar improvements • Insulin resistance and insulin sensitivity • When type 2 diabetes remission may be possible • Weight loss and metabolic health • Managing type 1 diabetes with a healthy lifestyle • Exercise and blood glucose • Creating sustainable habits for long-term health • Peggy’s nearly three decades of experience in cardiac rehabilitation Whether you have diabetes, prediabetes, or simply want to improve your metabolic health, this is an informative and encouraging conversation about the power of lifestyle change.

  Making the World More Vegan with Bobby Sud

  Jul 25, 202636 minS3

  What does it take to create a more compassionate world when only about 1% of the global population is vegan? In this thought-provoking episode of Plant Based Coaches, Richard Hubbard and Dr. Suzanne Foxx welcome Bobby Sud—filmmaker, photographer, and longtime animal rights activist—for an inspiring conversation about the future of the vegan movement. Bobby has dedicated years to documenting the realities of animal agriculture as an organizer and photographer with LA Animal Save. His powerful images have been featured by major publications including People Magazine, the Los Angeles Times, and The Hollywood Reporter. As a filmmaker, he has worked on projects such as the vegan travel series The Road Less Eaten, collaborated with Earthlings and Unity director Shaun Monson, and co-directed the Million Dollar Vegan campaign featuring athletes, physicians, and individuals whose lives have been transformed by a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle. During this conversation, Bobby shares why expanding veganism requires more than passion—it requires empathy. He explains why vegans should strive to engage everyone, regardless of political affiliation, emphasizing that compassion shouldn't have ideological boundaries. Rather than excluding people based on their beliefs, Bobby encourages meeting them where they are and having respectful conversations that can inspire lasting change. Whether you're a longtime vegan, simply plant-curious, or interested in more effective advocacy, this episode offers practical insights on how kindness, understanding, and open dialogue can help move the world toward a more compassionate future.

  Can Food Reverse Disease? Dr. Niki Davis on Hypertension, Cholesterol & Food Safety

  Jul 18, 202635 minS3

  What does a rocket scientist know about reversing chronic disease? As it turns out—a lot! On this episode of Plant Based Coaches, Richard Hubbard and Dr. Suzanne Foxx welcome Dr. Niki Davis, a board-certified family and lifestyle medicine physician with an extraordinary background. Before entering medicine, Dr. Davis earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in mechanical engineering and even contributed to the space shuttle program. Her passion for health and nutrition eventually led her to make a dramatic career change and pursue medicine. During her medical training, Dr. Davis interned with legendary plant-based physician Dr. John McDougall and later co-founded Plant Based Montana, helping educate both health care professionals and the public about the benefits of plant-based nutrition. She also holds a certificate in plant-based nutrition from the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies. In this fascinating conversation, we tackle a timely topic: Cyclospora and foodborne illness. Dr. Davis discusses the recent concerns involving contaminated lettuce served at Taco Bell and explains an important distinction—the lettuce itself isn't inherently the problem. We explore how contamination can originate from human or animal waste and how breakdowns in food safety practices can allow pathogens to reach the food we eat. But should outbreaks involving vegetables make people afraid to eat fresh produce? Dr. Davis puts the risks into perspective and discusses why fruits and vegetables remain essential parts of a healthy diet. We also dive into the power of whole-food, plant-based nutrition to address chronic disease, including hypertension and high cholesterol. Dr. Davis shares inspiring stories from her own patients, including a woman who experienced a remarkable improvement in her high cholesterol after changing her lifestyle. Suzanne also recognizes Dr. Davis for taking the courageous step of building her own medical practice, where she can focus on lifestyle medicine and help patients address the root causes of chronic disease—not simply manage symptoms. From rocket science to lifestyle medicine, food safety to disease reversal, this conversation shows how science, nutrition, and everyday lifestyle choices can come together to transform health.
