Dr. Oz and Forks Over Knives and Scalpels: The Best Way to Eat for Health with a Plant-Based Diet
This has to be one of the best episodes of Dr. Oz since he began his show to help people learn what it takes to enjoy a healthy Lifestyle. He held out a scalpel and a fork declaring that the fork could do more for your health than cutting into your body with surgery.
We know that Doctor Oz is a cardiac surgeon and he has used his scalpel to carve into bodies and hearts for many years. He is suggesting that there is a better way and that you can avoid needing surgery when you eat a plant-based whole foods diet.
It’s not a temporary diet, it’s more of a way of eating for the rest of your long and healthy Life. It’s a part of a healthy Lifestyle. It’s the natural way most cultures eat around the world that have not become industrialized or corrupted with processed foods.
The Documentary “Forks Over Knives” is the inspiration for this change of heart for Dr. Oz. He is finally waking up to common sense and a plate full of healthy whole foods.

There are some foods that you should never eat again. Dairy…yes, Dr. Oz finally faced this! Animal meat and fish…which was HARD for Dr. Oz to swallow until he heard the explanation. Processed foods…which is what we have been telling you for decades.
The experts showed a table of fresh fruits and vegetables along with beans, whole grains, seeds, and nuts. There were plenty of greens, especially like escarole that provides many nutrients, including calcium. There were plenty of substitutes for red meat which meets your protein requirements. There are even plant materials that supply B12 which concerned Dr. Oz.
The next table was graced by freeze-dried strawberries which the expert identified as a food source that has been shown in studies to reduce the risk for degenerative diseases, including cancer. The salad dressing without oil was made with balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, and oregano. The oatmeal and other whole grains speak for themselves, especially when combined with beans which supply soluble fiber and protein.
All in all, most of the thirty participants in the trial did alright, though some quit too soon to give these foods a real chance of working for them. One woman who had a family history of cancer is still going strong and gave her thumbs-up to all of the food samples, including the brewer’s yeast.
The firefighting advocate for healthy foods demonstrated some of his favorites and we’re betting that if his firehouse can find these foods suitable, so can you! Rhubarb, escarole, brewer’s yeast, freeze-dried strawberries, and pureed bananas with vanilla extract and nutmeg turned into banana ice cream…delicious examples of his five best foods for you. You may need to think outside the box and learn a few new recipes, but other than a little creativity; you can also be the beneficiary of this valuable information.
The Fire Engine 2 Information on Doctor Oz
The older gray-haired researchers explained that they could turn on and off cancer with animal protein, but that plant protein compounds could not turn cancer markers on… That fact speaks for itself in this matter! So if you can replace your steak knife with your fork; you can thrive without degenerative disease sneaking up on you due to eating these specific foods.
