  • The foods your prostate would want you to eat, with Dr Benny Gavi M.D and Maya Eylon
    This week we speak to the authors of the brilliant book 'Preventing Prostate Cancer: Reduce Your Risk with Simple Proactive Choices' , Dr Benny Gavi M.D and Maya Eylon. Dr Gavi is a Harvard trained medical doctor who works at Stanford Hospital and Stanford Medical School in California, and Maya Eylon is a medical researcher and medical student . In this episode they talk to us about how lifestyle and nutrition can play a role in reducing the risk of developing prostate cancer, as well as slowing the progression and improving outcomes in men already diagnosed with prostate cancer. They analysed hundreds of studies to bring us the most concise up to date medical evidence on the impact of lifestyle choices, to empower men to take back control and improve their health. The studies referenced in today's episode can all be found here: https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/preventing-prostate-cancer-reduce-your-risk-with-simple-proactive-choices-benny-gavi/7039574?ean=9781570674099

  • Hip hip hooray: here's to fracture free living and healthy bones on a plant-based diet, with Dr Rajiv Bajekal
    This week we talk about all things bone health on the podcast.  From what foods to eat to improve bone health and reduce the risk of hip fractures, to the calcium 'thieves' hidden in our diets, to exercise and much much more.  Dr. Rajiv Bajekal (MS, FRCS Orth., MCh Orth., IBLM) is a Consultant Spinal Surgeon based in London with over 35 years of expertise in Orthopaedics and Spinal Surgery. Specialising in the lumbar spine, he has a deep focus on managing conditions such as sciatica, low back pain, spinal stenosis, osteoporotic fractures, and infections. Dr. Bajekal prioritizes holistic and often non-surgical solutions for patients in severe pain, combining his surgical knowledge with his expertise as a Board-Certified Lifestyle Medicine Practitioner. A strong advocate for lifestyle medicine, Dr. Bajekal has personally experienced the transformative benefits of a whole-food, plant-based diet and incorporates these principles into his practice.  Dr. Bajekal has contributed to the UK's first plant-based nutrition course at Winchester University, where he developed a module on bone health and osteoporosis. He also co-authored a chapter on bone health in the academic book Plant-Based Nutrition in Clinical Practice. Passionate about education, he is known for making complex spinal topics accessible and engaging.
