Read MoreInterview with Dr. Fuhrman
in interview
Many people know Joel Fuhrman, M.D. from his PBS programs and best-selling books that have revolutionized the health of tens of thousands of people. Even my late mother’s health improved significantly at age 87. She had suffered a debilitating stroke, and Dr. Fuhrman’s PBS special was on TV the day she was discharged from rehab. She started following his nutritional advice that day, and in less than a year lost 80 pounds, got off insulin, regained some of her mobility and vitality back, and was able to live a few more years and meet her first great grandchild. If I could gather the untold stories from around the world whose lives have been radically changed and lengthened by his nutritional recommendations, it would fill volumes of books! However, most people don’t know the story behind his insatiable quest for nutritional excellence, optimal health and longevity. I’d like to share that story today.

After he disappeared into the crowd, I found an ice-cream shop. . .my drug of choice to help me cope. The image on the right is me today. I’m going back to New York next week to visit a daughter and son-in-law. I can walk for miles now!
Setting Captives Free!
This morning during a podcast interview, I realized once again that it’s the hard times we go through that teach us the greatest lessons.
It was the years of ongoing struggle to find a solution to the addiction to high-fat, high-salt, processed food and sweets that has ignited my passion to now help others get free.
