The Simply Vegan podcast is your weekly dose of plant-based food, news and topical chat with Vegan Food & Living's Holly Johnson and Molly Pickering.In today's episode, we are joined by Dr Alona Pulde and Dr Matthew Lederman, the pioneering physicians from the groundbreaking film Forks Over Knives and New York Times Best-Selling authors. They’re here to talk about their new book Wellness to Wonderful, which outlines the 9 pillars of living a happier and healthier life. We cover stress, addiction, what happens when our needs aren't being met and the obstacles that are preventing us from living better lives. The doctors outline how all these things not only lead to unhappiness, but also inflammation and illness, and why Western medicine is not the answer.If this sounds like you and a plant-based diet alone isn't helping, you need to listen to this episode. Discover the the 9 pillars that can change your life, and the one little thing that we can do right now – today – to start making changes.
