I was SO HAPPY to hear Dr. Ashton talk about Whole Food Plant Based nutrition. My two daughters and I have been WFPB for over 15 years. I started at age 72. In my 50's I had lots of joint pain and feeling unhappy and stressed. Now, at age 87 I have felt great for some years now. I try to influence my friends who are suffering from chronic pain, health problems, medications and disabilities from chronic disease to just try it for a couple of weeks and see how they feel. I do tell them to tell their health care provider what they are about because after two weeks they may have to have their medications adjusted down. My top weight was 250 pounds. I am now at 139 and going down. No "dieting". I have a library of books I have studied on my nutrition journey. Sad to say, I have not gotten any encouragement or kudos from any health care provider I have seen. I don't fault them for that. They just don't know, I think. So glad that GMA brought it to the public at large. Much love, Gladys
