This episode with Ocean Robbins is not just about the power of food but a deep dive into the profound legacy that Ocean carries forward from his father, John Robbins, the author of "A Diet for a New America". Ocean and Dr. Mindy explore the integral role of lifestyle medicine, the impact of fasting, the benefits of mindful eating, and the nutritional power of superfoods like sweet potatoes. We delve into the secret behind the impressive longevity of the Okinawan people, the power of love, belonging, and the detrimental effects of loneliness on our well-being.
