- This week Dr Sam Moxon interviews Dr Neal Barnard, American author, clinical researcher, Leading TED Talk speaker and founding president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM).
They discuss the affected of diet on the brain, and the importance of what you eat on brain and overall health.
Dr. Barnard has led numerous research studies investigating the effects of diet on diabetes, body weight, the brain and chronic pain, including a ground-breaking study of dietary interventions in type 2 diabetes - paving the way for viewing type 2 diabetes as a potentially reversible condition. He has authored more than 100 scientific publications and 20 books (including some of the best ever selling Vegan health books) for medical and lay readers, and is the editor in chief of the Nutrition Guide for Clinicians, a textbook made available to all U.S. medical students.
As president of the Physicians Committee, Dr Barnard also leads programs advocating for preventive medicine, good nutrition, and higher ethical standards in research. His research contributed to the acceptance of plant-based diets in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, and in 2015, he was named a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology. In 2016, he founded the Barnard Medical Center in Washington, D.C., as a model for making nutrition a routine part of all medical care.
Working with the Medical Society of the District of Columbia and the American Medical Association, Dr. Barnard has authored key resolutions, now part of AMA policy, calling for a new focus on prevention and nutrition in federal policies and in medical practice. In 2018, he received the Medical Society of the District of Columbia’s Distinguished Service Award. He has hosted four PBS television programs on nutrition and health.
Originally from Fargo, North Dakota, Dr. Barnard received his MD degree at the George Washington University School of Medicine and completed his residency at the same institution. He practiced at St. Vincent’s Hospital in New York before returning to Washington to found the Physicians Committee.

Dr. Barnard, you have such a calm, reassuring method of telling people about this subject. I am 100% whole food plant based, SOS free and this is so encouraging to know what a variety of benefits this lifestyle brings. Thank you for the lives you are saving.
Thanks for sharing!
NEVER EVER TO LATE, people must PUT that idea out their mind, I 67 and will eat very healthy to prevent dementia, special to stay plantbased
This video is powerful ! Thank you so much Dr. Barnard 😊

Excellent. Thank you.

Organic Vegan Diet is the best nutrition for humans
but let's keep it doable
ANY veggies are better than reducing veggies bc organics are too expensive
everything in moderation (except garlic).
Thank you so much for this interview I have Hashimoto's thyroiditis is sprouted tofu okay to eat with this condition? I care a lot of people and doctors saying to stay away from soy, is this true for somebody with Hashimoto's?
Names and words have escaped me since I was in my 20s.
Don't worry too much, there are lots of causes for this... and in your 20s it would be incredibly rare for it to be a form of dementia (although there are types that do effect people at a very very early age). If you're really concerned you should visit the doctors and see if they could administer a memory test :-)
Frm 6.8 ha1c became now 6.2 in 3 months on a plant based whole foods nd no dairies like cheese, cow's milk.
Oatmeal nd almond milk better.
oatmeal can be loaded with roundup
This man should give us report of hid cognoscopy every 4 to 5 years. This is what a good ethical preacher should do. Because even if diet fails down the road due to deficiency, at least the doctor will retain some respect. He should definitely share his cognoscopy results with his followers every 4 to 5 years.
barnard is using "alzheimer's" and "dementia" interchangeably. can we get a distinction between naturally occurring dementia and the anthropogenic toxicity of alzheimer's ?
112 bs, dosage on metformin lower now frm 500 to 250 mg
How are plant based diets healthy when they seem high in fat ? .
Plant-based diets are low in saturated fat and high in fiber, which helps the body to regulate blood sugar and properly absorb nutrients.
Dr. Barnard, N of one.... Whenever I stop drinking coffee, I have no hot flushes of any kind. As soon as I drink coffee: Pfffff!!!! OMG
Food most definitely changes your brain chemistry and health. He is one of very few psychiatrists who recognize food is important.
He is wrong about the "sat fat" in meat versus healthy fat in plants tho. Olive oil and bacon fat, for instance are primarily monounsaturated fat in similar percentages and red meat is just 24% sat fat versus 15% in olive oil. All foods with fats have mixed fat profiles ie they have mono, saturated and polyunsaturated fats. I don't see how sat fat in olive or avocado oil is better than sat fat from bacon.
As for "bad fat" raising your cholesterol, sat fat increases your hdl and ldl. If you are not insulin resistant, which sadly is likely less than 40% of the population, the higher ldl ia not necessarily a risk factor. Metabolic syndrome increases your risk of cardio events by 30%, similar to smoking. Higher ldl is less than 2% increased risk. Fat does not cause resistance. Insulin doesn't respond to fat- it responds to glucose. Glucose =half of sugar, and starches like bread, rice, corn and potatoes. More carbs means higher glucose and higher insulin to control the blood glucose. If you are eating a lot of fiber, maybe that blunts the glucose spike. But if you look at the glycemic level of whole what bread, for instance, it's pretty high. You could maybe get to low glucose levels with non starchy vegetables. It would be necessary to use a cgm if you want to attempt vegan or vegetarian keto. I can't do grains at all without spiking my glucose, the fiber content doesn't seem to matter.
Barnard lies as usual...
