I think that Joel Fuhrman is a super brilliant man that cares in the best possible way. I'm so grateful that I can benefit from his knowledge and care.
Such great information. It's so true, no one else will care for our bodies. We have to do it. Lead by example, and maybe we can even change someone else life for the better.
For a business dinner, you can say "I'm sorry, but I have a routine medical test in the morning, so just seltzer with lime for dinner tonight for me. But please enjoy your meal and I will enjoy your company!"
I wish you would also mention co-ops and health food stores as travel options rather than only Whole Foods, who are currently selling GMO bi- color corn and labelling it 'bio-engineered"- probably hoping consumers won't know what that means. Since Amazon bought WF it is not what it used to be. I live in a small city but our co-op surpasses any organic market options I've seen on either coast- just buying all the great types of mushrooms is a joy.
It may sound extreme and no doubt you might encounter some peer pressure, but complete abstinence from addictive substances makes not doing them very easy, and doing them a little bit may make it hard to not do them. I think having the firmness of your convictions might be impressive business wise. If people feel alienated, so what? Are you going to go out drinking if they do?
Not sure... I think it’s very unlikely people are gonna take you as a role model around here, ... I mean, in Switzerland where I live, in the south... I have always been labeled as “complicated”.... especially by Italians. it’s a privilege to be free to do all this without judgment and with a whole lot of choice every time. You’re lucky if this happens in your country. I honestly cannot Imagine being invited by people who are not into plant based eating at all, or actually that have that feeling it is extreme to be vegan, and be admired for my choice. Never happened, not here at least. In Australia, yes, once... or also, I feel very challenging to travel to the mountains here, the “capanne” have only bread, cheeses, cured meats, canned foods, maybe rice and pasta, ....
That's sad. My family lives in a village on an Aegean island (they are Greek) and every time i visit from the States and I am at a dinner or party they make something traditional I can eat but others also enjoy. So I don't even need to explain my diet. At restaurants in the towns there, I order a large Greek salad without the feta, fava (blended plain yellow peas) and eggplant salad, which is always vegan. I don't eat the sides of pita. There is also always boiled greens, dolmathes, and bean soup. I do not add oil to anything and get either lemon slices or vinegar as condiments.
Call ahead to a restaurant? I have not run into a restaurant yet that doesn't have something that I can eat or simply ordering some salad that they already have on the menu without the cheese and then you are animal product free. Less you are going to Carl's Junior or some other garbage like that you don't need to call ahead.

Yes! “ just do it! It’s too easy too easy to compromise your lifestyle if you don’t prepare ahead of time.

Yes, perfect advice! No excuses, I’m the protector of my health.
Also, no excuses applies to one's life in general. You make it happen!

Eating isn’t exciting when you take away the addictive foods. Excitement is what gets people into trouble.
