I just discovered your channel after watching Laura’s interview on Rip’s podcast. Wow. Thank you so much. All the best in your telemedicine practice. Thanks especially for recognizing the importance of incentivizing your staff so they can devote their full attention to their plant-based practice. A shame about Medicare but you are right to take care of them. We understand!

Ive watched this a couple of times, but really disappointed that questions had nothing to do with the topic of arthritis!.
At 82, my arthritis in hip and knee are becoming worse. My diet is pretty good, but not close to as "clean" as Dr. Miller's recommendations. I'm trying to motivate myself to test it for 2-3 months.

I have Polymyositis, which is an autoimmune muscle wasting disease, but it also affects our joints heavily.

very sad about medicare. I have exercised most of my life but recently have gone plant based . 1 doctor asked "how do u get your protein?'" I never went back 2 c her. But when I asked my new provider to do Vit B12 levels or Vit D they will tell u they r not alternative medicine .I feel that allopaths r failing me. My naturopathic told me to use more coconut oil . Stopped seeing him also. Grrr. I am in a medical black hole.
