You see people in your family dealing with so many medical problems and it's heartbreaking and you just think I don't want to end up that way.
00:00:09.814 --> 00:00:14.106
Maybe you're already dealing with your own medical problems and you're thinking what can I do?
00:00:14.106 --> 00:00:17.256
I just want to know what to do.
00:00:17.256 --> 00:00:23.515
You're tired of being tired all the time and you just want to feel better.
00:00:23.515 --> 00:00:24.336
What do you do?
00:00:24.336 --> 00:00:26.283
That's what we're talking about today.
00:00:26.283 --> 00:00:29.795
Hey sister, welcome to the Power On Plants podcast.
00:00:29.795 --> 00:00:35.109
Are you tired of staring into the fridge wondering what to eat so you can just feel better?
00:00:35.109 --> 00:00:40.530
Do you want to avoid spending hours in the kitchen making complicated meals in the name of health?
00:00:40.530 --> 00:00:46.814
Would you love to leave fatigue behind and finally have the energy to do all the things you want to do?
00:00:46.814 --> 00:00:54.462
Hi, we're chair in the Need to Resale, christ followers, healthcare professionals, parents of four and big fans of great tasting food.
00:00:54.462 --> 00:01:06.650
We, too, tried exercising more, eating natural and clean foods, but we still found ourselves struggling with what we thought were changes that come with age or bad genes, and we weren't finding answers to traditional routes.
00:01:06.650 --> 00:01:13.914
So we dug into the research and created our secret nutritional weapon sustainable plant based living.
00:01:13.914 --> 00:01:17.683
The truth is, you can eat more whole plant foods, and it's not hard.
00:01:17.683 --> 00:01:22.843
You just need the way that's realistic and delicious so you never feel deprived.
00:01:22.843 --> 00:01:31.093
If you're ready to enjoy your meals, no longer be held back by your health struggles and actively live your life, then you're in the right place.
00:01:31.093 --> 00:01:36.367
So grab your favorite plant based cup of happy pop in those earbuds and let's get started.
00:01:36.367 --> 00:01:43.486
Sister, this is your wake up call episode Jair's bringing in.
00:01:43.486 --> 00:01:47.153
Let's reel them in, put our arms around them and welcome them all.
00:01:47.379 --> 00:01:47.902
Family.
00:01:48.243 --> 00:01:48.766
We love you.
00:01:48.766 --> 00:01:55.251
You are our power on plants, fam, and we love you and we care about you, and that is why we're bringing you this from the heart episode.
00:01:55.251 --> 00:01:56.216
And this is from the heart.
00:01:56.216 --> 00:01:57.623
This is where it gets real.
00:01:57.623 --> 00:01:59.129
This is where the rubber meets the road.
00:01:59.129 --> 00:02:00.835
You don't know what to do.
00:02:00.835 --> 00:02:02.742
Your family members are getting sick.
00:02:02.742 --> 00:02:05.713
You cannot stomach the thought of another diet.
00:02:05.713 --> 00:02:17.479
You're sick and tired of being sick and tired all the time, or you just don't want to end up going through what you see other people going through, maybe your family members saying look, you're just getting older.
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:19.670
This is just how it's going to be.
00:02:19.670 --> 00:02:21.703
This is laughing our family.
00:02:21.703 --> 00:02:23.646
It doesn't have to be that way.
00:02:23.646 --> 00:02:26.491
You can have the attitude of look, the buck stops here.
00:02:26.491 --> 00:02:30.706
I'm not walking in that same path, so I'm not going to get the same results.
00:02:30.706 --> 00:02:44.924
Because the truth is, if you walk in the same path and you eat the same food that your other family members ate and you live the same sedentary life that they lived Now that I mean you have to go to the gym every single day but if you follow in their footsteps, what kind of results are you going?
00:02:44.963 --> 00:02:45.444
to get.
00:02:45.444 --> 00:02:47.330
It's going to be the same results.
00:02:47.330 --> 00:02:48.431
And we hear this.
00:02:48.431 --> 00:02:54.091
We hear this within the podcast realm, I hear it when I talk to my patients.
00:02:54.091 --> 00:02:57.342
It's just my genes, I've got the genetic kind.
00:02:57.342 --> 00:03:02.562
Well, you don't just share genes, you share habits, lifestyle.
00:03:02.562 --> 00:03:08.901
Lifestyle habits, the whether or not you move and sometimes exercise maybe a four letter word.
00:03:08.901 --> 00:03:16.783
So if you don't move, if you're sedentary, if you eat poor quality foods, you will have the same outcomes.
00:03:17.224 --> 00:03:19.329
Jared is a physician assistant.
00:03:19.329 --> 00:03:23.405
He is also certified in lifestyle medicine.
00:03:23.405 --> 00:03:29.563
In case you don't know, in lifestyle medicine there are various pillars that they look at.
00:03:29.563 --> 00:03:39.694
You talk about the food you eat, the sleep, you get the relationships you have, your walk with the Lord right, all the spiritual side of how you live.
00:03:39.694 --> 00:03:44.325
All these things are areas, key areas, stress, stress, things like that.
00:03:44.325 --> 00:03:47.151
Jared and I focus on the food.
00:03:47.151 --> 00:03:50.203
Why do we focus on the food?
00:03:50.203 --> 00:03:54.739
Because if you can get that base right, it flows over into everything else.
00:03:54.739 --> 00:03:56.688
If the food gets right, your sleep gets better.
00:03:56.688 --> 00:03:58.879
If the food gets right, you feel better so you can move more.
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:02.067
If the food gets right, you're going to have a better attitude.
00:04:02.067 --> 00:04:09.979
It actually affects your hormones to where you think differently, you speak differently, you have a different level of energy.
00:04:09.979 --> 00:04:14.836
You're functioning on a whole different plane than what was possible for you before.
00:04:14.836 --> 00:04:17.622
So that's why we make the food the foundation.
00:04:17.622 --> 00:04:20.307
So when you say, what can I do?
00:04:20.307 --> 00:04:22.192
Just show me what to do.
00:04:22.192 --> 00:04:27.271
The answer is eat more whole plant foods.
00:04:27.271 --> 00:04:29.458
Now maybe you're thinking that sounds great.
00:04:29.458 --> 00:04:30.884
No, but I don't know how to do that.
00:04:30.884 --> 00:04:33.391

You're in and then you're going to go back and you're going to listen to episode number 250.
00:04:55.232 --> 00:04:57.444
Yeah, we just celebrate 250 episodes.
00:04:57.444 --> 00:04:58.769
We are so excited about that.
00:04:58.769 --> 00:05:01.396
But the key is in that episode.
00:05:01.396 --> 00:05:03.232
Okay, that's the one big key.
00:05:03.232 --> 00:05:06.802
It's going to tell you what to do when you get inside the community.
00:05:06.802 --> 00:05:09.245
That's going to make all the difference to you.
00:05:09.245 --> 00:05:14.305
What we see a hundred percent of the time gets lasting results for a hundred percent of the people.
00:05:14.305 --> 00:05:19.166
But this first step is you eat more whole plant foods and you make your decision.
00:05:19.166 --> 00:05:22.442
I'm going to do this, but you're not going to power through.
00:05:22.442 --> 00:05:25.184
Power through is not going to work.
00:05:25.184 --> 00:05:26.511
It doesn't work.
00:05:26.511 --> 00:05:27.516
It's miserable.
00:05:27.516 --> 00:05:29.870
You're pushing yourself to do something you don't enjoy.
00:05:29.870 --> 00:05:31.425
It doesn't work with your lifestyle.
00:05:31.425 --> 00:05:32.644
You hate it.
00:05:32.644 --> 00:05:45.930
Like you're opening a can of canned green beans or you're eating nasty tasting convenience foods when you could have whipped something up if you knew how and about five minutes or less, and being eaten it just as fast as a convenience food but not actually taste good.
00:05:45.930 --> 00:05:46.834
It's fueling your body.
00:05:46.834 --> 00:05:49.163
Well, it's crazy how this happens.
00:05:50.228 --> 00:05:53.016
Now some of you, I hear whoa, wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:05:53.016 --> 00:06:12.536
You're telling me all of this is just eat more plants and the answer is yes, and this is just one of those it's almost like a kick in the pants kind of episode is like, yes, it's me grabbing you by the shoulders, looking you square in the eye and say, look, it all boils down to eat more plants.
00:06:12.536 --> 00:06:20.877
And I honestly want to do that with all my patients, but I know I can't do that because I know that I'm dealing with the lifetime of misinformation.
00:06:20.877 --> 00:06:26.970
I admit to some degree programming, advertising all this misinformation that they've been given.
00:06:26.970 --> 00:06:27.973
You've been set up.
00:06:28.346 --> 00:06:29.290
You've been set up.
00:06:29.290 --> 00:06:30.413
Okay, let's just be real.
00:06:30.605 --> 00:06:36.630
I can't undo that with say, hey, just eat more plants, it's not going to work, you got to work through it.
00:06:36.630 --> 00:06:45.774
There's some deprogramming and I share links with them and different information like that and it's a thing that happens over a course of a time.
00:06:45.774 --> 00:06:51.047
But if you're suffering with something and you're saying, yeah, I hear this, I don't know what to do.
00:06:51.047 --> 00:07:01.853
For some people, when we hear this, when we see comments on other platforms not our community, but on other platforms and they go on about it, it's just like look, eat more plants.
00:07:01.853 --> 00:07:15.156
The results that you want the diabetes going away, the high blood pressure, the weight the cholesterol coming down all of these different things, thinking more clearly, being able to feel like doing what you want to do.
00:07:15.156 --> 00:07:21.329
I just want to look them square in the eye and just say, look, just eat more plants.
00:07:21.644 --> 00:07:26.254
But I've got nothing else, but I've got to say this learn how to make it quick, simple and delicious, girl.
00:07:26.254 --> 00:07:27.036
That's my mantra.
00:07:27.285 --> 00:07:28.290
That's the long time.
00:07:28.404 --> 00:07:29.591
It's what I say all the time.
00:07:29.591 --> 00:07:36.312
Now, I don't believe in mantras, okay, like the way, the spiritual woo, woo, way, okay, but this is what I say all the time.
00:07:36.312 --> 00:07:36.995
Why do I say it?
00:07:36.995 --> 00:07:39.430
Because it makes all the difference.
00:07:39.430 --> 00:07:42.791
Because somebody can come to you and say take you by the shoulders and say, eat more plants.
00:07:42.791 --> 00:07:44.028
And you're going to say how do I do that?
00:07:44.028 --> 00:07:49.336
Okay, key number one is get inside this community and go listen to episode 250.
00:07:49.336 --> 00:07:51.312
Key number two is eat more plants.
00:07:51.312 --> 00:07:52.733
How are you going to do that?
00:07:52.733 --> 00:07:53.778
That's the question now.
00:07:53.778 --> 00:07:54.644
How am I going to do that?
00:07:54.644 --> 00:07:55.588
You're going to learn how.
00:07:55.588 --> 00:07:58.194
You're going to learn how because you're going to ask the questions.
00:07:58.194 --> 00:07:59.990
You're going to try new things.
00:07:59.990 --> 00:08:01.732
You're going to find what you like and you don't.
00:08:01.732 --> 00:08:03.834
You're going to build your new favorites.
00:08:03.834 --> 00:08:05.057
We're going to show you how to do that.
00:08:05.057 --> 00:08:06.624
It's not hard.
00:08:06.624 --> 00:08:11.324
You just need to be somewhere where we do, week after week, somebody cares about you right.
00:08:11.324 --> 00:08:15.774
Get in a community where there's real, where there's authentic, where somebody cares about you.
00:08:15.774 --> 00:08:19.172
They actually care if you feel better the next day or not.
00:08:19.172 --> 00:08:21.500
You know this is what matters.
00:08:21.500 --> 00:08:26.459
We were created to thrive on these foods Breeds and vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds, legumes.
00:08:26.459 --> 00:08:43.741
But if you have not been eating fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds and legumes for your entire life, or you've been eating a little side of nasty ones that you didn't like but you pushed through, or you think a side salad's what you're gonna have to eat the rest of your life, you are in for a great, great surprise and treat.
00:08:43.741 --> 00:08:45.726
Yeah, it's a treat, literally.
00:08:45.726 --> 00:08:47.552
We do not feel deprived.
00:08:47.552 --> 00:08:49.469
Girl, you know what I'm talking about.
00:08:49.469 --> 00:08:51.379
Are you sitting there shouting at the podcast?
00:08:51.379 --> 00:08:53.062
Are you like listen?
00:08:53.062 --> 00:08:54.145
What they're saying is true.
00:08:54.145 --> 00:08:56.650
If you're already working with us, you're seeing the light.
00:08:56.650 --> 00:09:01.480
We see what you're doing, you're taking action, you're taking the steps and you're asking the questions.
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:08.984
You're putting yourself in a place where you get those questions answered so you know how to eat more whole plant foods, how to make it easy for yourself.
00:09:08.984 --> 00:09:11.537
That is when things become sustainable.
00:09:11.537 --> 00:09:12.220
How do I do it?
00:09:12.220 --> 00:09:13.763
But it all boils down to you.
00:09:13.763 --> 00:09:21.365
You got to find the way to eat more plants that is sustainable, that work, so you can start feeling better, so you can live the life you were created to live.
00:09:21.365 --> 00:09:26.475
These foods are the answer you are looking for.
00:09:26.475 --> 00:09:27.504
Take the leap.
00:09:27.504 --> 00:09:28.408
This is the key.
00:09:28.649 --> 00:09:29.152
Do it.
00:09:29.152 --> 00:09:33.989
If you're sitting on the fence thinking, okay, I hear it, I don't know, take the leap.
00:09:33.989 --> 00:09:35.211
What do you have to lose?
00:09:35.211 --> 00:09:38.374
Nothing, but you have everything to gain Everything to gain.
00:09:38.595 --> 00:09:39.820
Take it from somebody who's gone through it.
00:09:39.820 --> 00:09:42.950
Look, jare and I lost 70 pounds together without even trying to lose weight.
00:09:42.950 --> 00:09:48.272
We have members coming in and they're going having even tried to lose weight, and I've lost more weight.
00:09:48.272 --> 00:09:50.881
I'm weighing my high school weight.
00:09:50.881 --> 00:09:54.009
I'm doing this, but they're not just sitting there gathering knowledge.
00:09:54.009 --> 00:09:55.972
Again, go listen to episode 250.
00:09:55.972 --> 00:09:58.865
There are some keys there to what you need to do.
00:09:58.865 --> 00:10:00.408
It's not hard.
00:10:00.408 --> 00:10:13.210
You just need a little bit of guidance and actual loving care from people who genuinely care about you and can show you what steps to take so you'll know how to eat more plants.
00:10:13.210 --> 00:10:15.504
You've got to learn how to love them.
00:10:15.504 --> 00:10:17.831
How do you make them taste like your old favorites?
00:10:17.831 --> 00:10:20.369
How do you discover the new favorites right?
00:10:20.369 --> 00:10:29.943
So it's not just about us saying eat more plants but that really is the key but it's learning how do I do this in the way that's going to work for me and is sustainable, that I actually love it so much.
00:10:29.943 --> 00:10:31.207
I look forward to it every day.
00:10:31.207 --> 00:10:32.652
That's us, that's our story.
00:10:32.652 --> 00:10:33.942
We look forward to it every day.
00:10:33.942 --> 00:10:35.147
Do we ever feel deprived?
00:10:35.147 --> 00:10:37.072
Absolutely not, absolutely not.
00:10:37.072 --> 00:10:49.451
If I was ever in a situation where I felt deprived because I missed out on something, I'd figure out how to make a spin on that something, which is what I do and figure out for people all the time, because if I like Snickers, I want to know well what do I eat.
00:10:49.451 --> 00:10:55.340
That kind of gives me that flavor that I really enjoy just as much, and it may not even be a one-to-one replacement.
00:10:55.340 --> 00:10:59.892
I mean you get to a point where it doesn't even have to be replacing that exact food.
00:10:59.892 --> 00:11:01.966
It might be something at first.
00:11:01.966 --> 00:11:05.259
You need that and we give you that Like you've got to have that at first.
00:11:05.259 --> 00:11:09.231
If you love this thing, if you love chips, you want to have chips that taste really good.
00:11:09.231 --> 00:11:11.666
We can show you how to do that in like five minutes.
00:11:11.666 --> 00:11:14.513
I mean actually have them on your plate in about five minutes.
00:11:14.513 --> 00:11:16.085
That's how easy it is.
00:11:16.085 --> 00:11:19.899
But later on it gets where you don't have to have those one-to-one substitutions.
00:11:19.899 --> 00:11:22.947
You're now learning all these new things to make that you.
00:11:22.947 --> 00:11:24.211
They weren't even on your radar.
00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:29.705
But I will say, with some of those substitutions that we've made, we've made them with real food.
00:11:29.705 --> 00:11:37.552
We have the real flavors, right, but we enjoy them more because really what we're eating before was the counterfeit Right.
00:11:37.552 --> 00:11:41.230
We're eating all the artificial flavors and we love that Like.
00:11:41.230 --> 00:11:43.976
Oh no, this is the standard of what we love and enjoy, right?
00:11:43.976 --> 00:11:45.365
No, nothing else could be better.
00:11:45.365 --> 00:11:48.500
But then you start making that transition, that transformation.
00:11:48.500 --> 00:11:51.044
You start having the real Like.
00:11:51.044 --> 00:11:54.511
We can take dates, wrap a pecan with them, freeze them.
00:11:54.511 --> 00:11:55.894
It tastes like pecan pie.
00:11:55.894 --> 00:12:02.865
So we don't miss pecan pies, but we're getting all the natural flavor of the pecan, all the natural flavor of the medjool date.
00:12:02.865 --> 00:12:05.312
We're getting that caramel-y pecan goodness.
00:12:05.312 --> 00:12:07.566
And now we've got the authentic.
00:12:07.566 --> 00:12:08.809
We've got the real.
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:12.951
So what you're saying is your taste buds and your health were hijacked.
00:12:12.951 --> 00:12:16.980
Your taste buds and your health were hijacked by the enemy, but we did know.
00:12:17.140 --> 00:12:18.044
I mean, I'll just put it there.
00:12:18.461 --> 00:12:19.105
It is true.
00:12:19.105 --> 00:12:25.173
And so we get sucked into all these things and we think that's normal and we think this is enjoyable and we say they're good.
00:12:25.173 --> 00:12:26.624
Oh, this was, you'll eat it.
00:12:26.624 --> 00:12:27.647
Oh, this was so good.
00:12:27.647 --> 00:12:28.770
Is it really good?
00:12:28.770 --> 00:12:30.845
Is it good if it's making you sick?
00:12:30.845 --> 00:12:32.791
Is it good if it's keeping you stuck?
00:12:32.791 --> 00:12:42.235
Is it good if it's causing you to live into the future that your doctor or your family has told you your genes is leading you to?
00:12:42.235 --> 00:12:43.484
Is that good?
00:12:43.484 --> 00:12:46.460
We need to be careful about what we say is good.
00:12:46.460 --> 00:13:03.179
But I love that point that we were hijacked by something that was counterfeit or artificial and really what we want to do is live in what is rightfully ours, the blessings that come in filling our plate with the things that we were meant to eat from the very beginning.
00:13:03.179 --> 00:13:09.159
So if you're waiting for it, sister, here's your sign Eat more plants.
00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:11.375
