Dr. Akil Taher and we talked about his journey and gives us all so much wisdom! At 61 years young, he actually started living! As a practicing physician, he writes in his book about his experience with heart disease, a near death experience, depression, medical issues, etc. and how he changed his life around through diet and exercise. Specifically a whole-food plant-based diet and marathons. He goes from being a couch potato to running up Mount Kilimanjaro!


Enjoy!
