Can Alzheimer's Disease Be Reversed with a Plant Based Diet?
Dr. Dean Ornish publishes the first randomized controlled trial investigating whether a plant-based diet and lifestyle program may reverse the course of early-stage Alzheimer's disease. For more on Alzheimer’s disease, see these videos: • How Not to Age (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-not-to-age-live-presentation/) • Controversy Around FDA’s Approval of Biogen Alzheimer’s Drug, Aducanumab (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/aducanumab-for-alzheimers/) • Alzheimer’s and Atherosclerosis of the Brain (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/alzheimers-and-atherosclerosis-of-the-brain/) • How to Prevent Alzheimer’s with Diet (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-to-prevent-alzheimers-with-diet/) For more on Dr. Dean Ornish’s work, check out his book Undo It!

I have more than 500 videos on plant-based diets. You can check them out here (https://nutritionfacts.org/topics/plant-based-diets/). The best available balance of scientific evidence suggests that the healthiest way to eat is a vitamin B12-fortified (https://nutritionfacts.org/optimum-nutrient-recommendations/) diet centered around whole plant foods. I go into specifics of the Daily Dozen foods I recommend in Dr. Greger’s Daily Dozen (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/dr-gregers-daily-dozen-checklist-2/). For a more thorough dive into the science on these foods, check out my New York Times bestselling book, How Not to Die (https://nutritionfacts.org/book/how-not-to-die).

The Wajapi Preserving Their Identity and Way of Life | SLICE
In the north of the Amazon, in one of the most inaccessible forests of Brazil, the Wajapi live an existence preserved from modern influence. Fleeing from white people, their diseases, massacres, and forest destruction, they tried to preserve their identity and their way of life. Here, painting one's skin red is a way of maintaining a link with a very ancient civilization. The Wajapi have a long history of using vegetable dyes to adorn their bodies with compositions and symbols, such as snakes or jaguars, butterflies or fish bones. This unique communication system reflects their world-view and enables them to hand down knowledge about community life.

Couple's Impressive Self Reliant Life on a Remote Tropical Island – Off Grid Living
Marjo and An have an incredible off-grid homestead lifestyle in the Mentawai Islands in Indonesia. They've built their own home using locally sourced wood, they harvest fruit from the forest, they fish for their protein, they raise chickens for eggs and meat, and they also generate solar power, harvest rainwater, and use a well for their water and electricity. The island they live on does not have any villages or roads, so everything is transported with a small handmade boat, from their groceries to their fuel. It's not an easy lifestyle that they've chosen, but it is quite beautiful and rewarding (and they can surf from their front door!). You can follow and find out more about Marjo and An's incredible life on their YouTube channel, Our Island Life: https://www.youtube.com/@OurIslandLife https://www.instagram.com/marjos_stories/ Thanks for watching! ------------------------------------------------------------- STAY IN TOUCH! ------------------------------------------------------------- Website: www.exploringalternatives.ca Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/exploringalternativesblog Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/exploringalternatives/ ------------------------------------------------------------- COMMENTS ------------------------------------------------------------- We want our channel and comments section to be an inclusive space where everyone feels welcome to watch and contribute.

Couple Living in a Yurt as a Simple & Affordable Tiny House Alternative
Leah and Joe are an adventurous couple who moved from a log cabin into a skoolie, and then into a yurt! They are now living full-time in a tiny yurt with their two black cats in Ontario, Canada. The yurt is 20' in diameter and 314 square feet on the interior, the round structure is made of white pine lattice walls and roof rafters, and it is covered with wool felt insulation, a vapour barrier, and a canvas cover on the exterior. You can follow and find out more about Leah and Joe's yurt life adventures, and find out about the yurt rentals they're planning to set up on their land on Facebook and Instagram here: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61555845030001 https://www.instagram.com/mindful_makwa Joe and Leah's yurt is a 20' Mongolian Yurt (or super ger). These beautiful yurts are made in Mongolia and are distributed by Groovy Yurts. You can check them out here: https://www.groovyyurts.com/ At the time of filming, Leah and Joe had only been living in the yurt for 5 months, but they had already built a massive deck, set up their yurt as a cozy home, built an outhouse, brought in an electrical panel, built a woodshed and outdoor shower, and had a well drilled. Their future plans include adding a septic system, and building a comfort station with an indoor shower and toilet, and they're also looking into setting up a small yurt resort so that folks can visit the First Nation reserve where they live, and experience living and sleeping in a yurt.
