I loved the quiet time to review our last nine weeks. Remembering the early days of this group reminded me of how much we’ve learned and there are so many small changes that happen that are so subtle that I forgot about them. Better sleep... better mood... slowly gaining the confidence that I can do this for the rest of my life... I’ve tried many programs over the years and I finally get it! I know what my WHY is and I have a clear picture of my new identity. I actually look forward to doing my cardio every day...that has never happened!!! Thank you to my tribe and coaches for all your support and education! This was the missing link for me! - Dragon Fruit Tribe Member Love how the program is structured. New ideas and self inventory each week keeps me focused on one step at a time. So many suggestions and ideas from the coaches and the group keeps me motivated and my menu interesting. I feel these changes have become my new lifestyle. — Arugula Tribe Member © 2019 Engine 2 for Life For more information, visit plantstrong.com.

  • Rip Interview
    An Interview with Rip Esselstyn by Mark Huberman Mark: How did your Farms 2 Forks weekends come about? Rip: The credit goes to Whole Foods founder and CEO, John Mackey. Whole Foods has close to 60,000 team members and John is intent on creating a really healthy work force. He decided to finance some week-long immersions for some of their sickest team members. His goal was to add to a culture that embraces health. For almost three years now he has been basically subsidizing teams if they want to go to one of four different healthy eating week- long immersions. My Engine 2 has one and Dr. John McDougall does one in Santa Rosa, California. We at Engine 2 took what began as week-long immersions with Whole Food Markets and expanded them to the general public in what we are calling Farms 2 Forks.

  • Rip Esselstyn: in Honor of Father's Day Last Sunday, I Gathered up Your Questions, Called My Dad, Dr
    Rip Esselstyn: In honor of Father's Day last Sunday, I gathered up your questions, called my dad, Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn Junior. Affectionately known as Esse. I want you to know that there's probably nothing in this world that he loves more than to help people to understand the importance of their fork, the simple fork in fighting disease, and how we should never think that it's okay to injure our endothelial cells. He is the ultimate taskmaster. Much to everyone's disappointment, he doesn't prescribe a 90% plan. He is 100% all-in, and he expects the rest of us to follow suit. He does not believe in moderation, as most of you know, but he does believe in you, and your ability to tackle this disease head-on, and bring it to its knees. Rip Esselstyn: Nobody said that this was going to be easy, and that's okay. All of us, from time to time, need a really good challenge in our lives, to push ourselves outside our comfort zones, test our limits, and see exactly what we're made of. My father speaks the truth. He never rounds up to make an argument land in his favor. He just wants us to live our best, most vibrant lives. Now, to give you a sneak peek, some of the topics we discuss are nitric oxide, and why chewing leafy greens every day is your best defense against chronic Western disease, including COVID-19. Why fluoride toothpaste is a no-no. My father's take on statins, and supplements.

  • Evelyn Palma English 122, Section 471 Miss French July 15, 2013 Is Food Thy Medicine? When I Think of Summer, I Am Reminded Of
    Evelyn Palma English 122, Section 471 Miss French July 15, 2013 Is Food Thy Medicine? When I think of summer, I am reminded of being outside and enjoying the warm weather, campfires, the smell of sunblock and chlorine, tan lines, and summer BBQs. Summer BBQs for my family usually include all sorts of delicious dishes from El Salvador and of course the typical American foods such as hamburgers, hotdogs, potato salad; the works. Now that I’m older, I have started thinking about how food plays a role in my life. I have been an on-again, off-again vegan because I want to take care of my body, but I just can’t seem to stay away from the food that I have grown up with like carne asada; Mom and grandma’s cooking is just too good to stop eating it! However, seeing my family members be overweight for most of their lives and how they have been affected by illnesses like cancer, I have started to think about how my environment might play a role in what will happen to me in the future. Could excess consumption of animal-based foods be the culprit or is this a myth? If eating meat is really just a helpless little scapegoat, then I will go out on my porch, shake my fist as joggers run past my house and scream “It’s a lie! It’s a lie!” as I sink my teeth into a mammoth-sized turkey leg. I’m not sure if animal-based foods really are helpless scapegoats or if they are evil villains disguised in various delicious forms like rich, velvety cheese, but I intend to be more informed.

  • Rip Esselstyn: We Were Lucky Enough to Have Rich Join Us at Our Second and Seventh Annual Plant-Stock Events, and They Were Epic
    Rip Esselstyn: We were lucky enough to have Rich join us at our second and seventh annual Plant-Stock events, and they were epic. But what's going to be beyond epic is our ninth annual Plant-Stock event, which is going to be streaming live and online around the country and the globe, straight from the Esselstyn family farm after a two-year hiatus, August 14th-16th. That's just a week away. Rip Esselstyn: With this new format I couldn't be more excited, because everyone gets a front row seat to all the action. We're going to pair the science with the practical application, which means time in the farmhouse kitchen cooking up a storm with Ann and Jane. We're going to have a world-class video crew that's going to give you a backstage pass to not only the farm, but also the homestead, inside and out. Rip Esselstyn: You're going to hear from the broc stars of the plant-based movement, including my father; Dr. Saray Stancic; Dr. Michael Greger; Dr. Michael Klaper; Brenda Davis; Tracye McQuirter; Marco Borges; and a slew of others. And if you can't watch it live, don't sweat it. Video access is going to be available, with every ticket, for a year. Partial proceeds will benefit the Esselstyn Foundation, a 501(c)(3)public charity, and if you're having a tough time financially, we get it. Financial assistance is available. Just visit plantstock2020.com to learn more. Rip Esselstyn: I want to welcome you to the Plant-Strong podcast, where each week we celebrate the heroes of the Plant-Strong movement.

    HOW THE FEATURE DOCUMENTARY FORKS OVER KNIVES IS CHANGING LIVES “I’ve worked in the nutrition field for over ten years and I’ve never seen a film so provocative, thorough, and inspiring! Every client I recommended it to who followed the principles outlined in the film saw dramatic changes in their health. It even converted my Texan meat- loving husband to a whole-foods vegan, and he’s never looked or felt better!” —CYNTHIA PASQUELLA, Beverly Hills “Forks Over Knives changed our lives. We now subscribe to an entirely plant-based diet and feel better than we ever imagined possible. … This is The Inconvenient Truth of health and nutrition and will have a profound effect on generations to come.” —KRISTINA LISOWSKI, Boulder “My blood pressure was out of control [and] I knew I had to make a change or die at a young age. …. Three months later, I’ve lost twenty pounds and my blood pressure is at normal levels, [and] I owe it all to a 100% plant-based diet, exercise, and the efforts of everyone involved in [Forks Over Knives]. Thank you!” —ROB GOLDEN “[Forks Over Knives] educates people about their ability to take full control of their wellness. Don’t wait until you have an illness to make changes. Take action now. It’s so simple! Our bodies were created to run perfectly on plants.” —JULIE STERNER, Glenview, IL “Forks Over Knives is literally a lifesaver. Without fear-mongering, it gives straightforward, scientifically backed reasons one should adopt a plant-based diet. The message it delivers is simple: Animal products are killing you, and you don’t need them to survive.” —LISA FRICKE, Huntington Beach, CA “Before seeing Forks Over Knives, I had already read all the literature out there on how a plant-based, whole-foods diet can do amazing things for your health, and I still learned more from the film.

Dissertation Advisor: Michèle Lamont Author: Nina Gheihman Veganized: How Cultural Entrepreneurs Mainstreamed a Movement Abstract In the last few years, veganism transformed from a marginalized animal rights movement into a mainstream lifestyle. This shift occurred through the promotional work of change agents called cultural entrepreneurs. Drawing on over 150 interviews with these movement leaders, I describe three archetypes that emerged inductively from the analysis: Icons (image entrepreneurs), Informers (knowledge entrepreneurs), and Innovators (market entrepreneurs). Collectively, cultural entrepreneurs sacrifice ideological purity in pursuit of popularity. However, they are both enabled and constrained by the national contexts in which they are embedded. I compare the United States with two “shadow cases” that represent barriers to (France) and openings for (Israel) cultural diffusion.
