Joel Fuhrman, M.D. on Treating Disease with a Nutritarian Diet

Dr. Fuhrman was the featured speaker at the 2014 Portland VegFest, put on by non-profit NWVEG.org. This is a recording of his appearance on Saturday, Sept. 27, attended by a full house audience of over 900. Joel Fuhrman, M.D. is a Board Certified Family Physician and internationally recognized expert specializing in nutritional research on disease prevention and reversal through nutrition and natural methods. He has authored 7 books including 3 NY Times best sellers, and is a popular guest on mainstream public media. He coined the word "nutritarian" to promote a diet rich in micronutrients and low in calories. The nutrient density present in body tissues is proportional to the nutrient density of one's diet. Micronutrients enable detoxification and cellular repair mechanisms and enhance immune system function. His system of food scoring, Aggregate Nutrient Density Index, 'ANDI' rates food options by the proportion of essential nutrients to calories, to achieve maximum health and longevity. Before Dr. Fuhrman became a physician, he was a world class figure skater who competed internationally. He feels this experience contributed significantly to his awareness of nutritional need in sports, medicine, and human performance. He now serves on numerous sports and athletic boards and committees giving nutritional advice for maximum performance, health and injury prevention.
