I never get tired of saying it: real food heals. Food has the power to prevent and reverse disease, and the more we know about it, the more power we have to curate a targeted diet to help us reach our health goals. The catch is that we have to choose the right foods, the ones that elevate us, and simultaneously ditch the poor-quality ones that harm us. There are powerful compounds in foods—like curcumin, genistein, catechins, lycopene, resveratrol, quercetin—that have medicinal impacts on the body. That’s why I call the grocery store the drug store; we can literally eat our medicine at every meal.

My guest this week on The Doctor’s Farmacy, Dr. William Li, is here to tell us all about eating to beat disease and making the idea that food is medicine second nature. You may also be surprised to find out that angiogenesis, or how the body forms blood vessels, is a common denominator in creating optimal health. William Li, MD, is a world-renowned physician, scientist, speaker, and author of Eat to Beat Disease: The New Science of How Your Body Can Heal Itself. He is best known for leading the Angiogenesis Foundation.

    Great Stuff ! I have suffered from Crohns disease for over 30 years and very bad allergies ,on medication for both . I am currently off all medication. My Crohns is gone, I can breath through my nose without using Nasacort . I started drinking Kombucha tea, got rid of wheat products. Bread, pasta etc. Stopped eating refined products as well as dairy. I eat nothing processed . large organic salads, grass fed meat and eggs , drink kale shakes in the morning and eat nuts for a snacks. I can't believe how great I feel .

    I am curing myself of lung cancer right now all from food!

    I learned a lot in this area when I was diagnosed with terminal cancer! Hey.. I’m still here 4 years on! I’m looking at combination nutrition that includes ketosis strategies and anti inflammatory, antioxidant and antiangeogenesis foods and beverages. Interesting synergy with many and coupled with positive mindset and mental conditioning is a powerful force to be reckoned with! Kudos to this man pushing against the medical restraints! 👍🙏

    Dr. William Li will be a great person to handle the Department of Health or CDC. His knowledge of science, health, food and common sense is absolutely remarkable.

    Parents should be the top of the teaching list. Doctors ought to be paid only when patients are healthy.

    So true, “we think about our health when we lose it”.

    "You are your own doctor and your food is your medicine." My Mother, who was a Registered Nurse, said this so many times. She believed in prevention, and knew that your food was crucial to health. I thank her and what she taught daily. She was born in 1914, and you would think we would be further along on this journey.

    Doctors, This spoke to me. I am a former pesticide regulator and environmental policy analyst for various international agencies including the UN, EU, WB and others. In those roles, I saw the downside of using/overusing pesticides for pest control when often attempts to control a target pest, the pesticide also damaged all the other many beneficial organisms that protect our world and our collective health. I remembered this truism as a result of your joint conversation. Thank you both.

    The fact that these basic ideas are “radical” or “unheard of in medical school” is insane. Bravo to this man and his work. If only more brilliant doctors would use their common sense.
  • this conversation is mindblowing! it's an eye-opener to all medical practitioners and medical schools. thanks, Dr Mark Hyman and Dr William Li. you are both our heroes in this food as medicine world.

    3 years ago, I spiked an autoimmune decease n I asked the doctor if there was something to changed my diet to help, he said don't worry just take the treatment and you can eat anything you want. I fired him on the spot! 3 years now and no treatment, I modified my diet and read a lot, working with leaky gut and problem has gotten much better. This doctor is absolutely correct. I will get his book! Thank you for the information.
  • Mind blowing. I have breast cancer that is now in my spine. This information would help thousands who may be prone to cancer. I follow you both. Pray for your continued health and abilities.
  • @donnalusti263
    What's tragic is that this is a bit of a "duh" yet almost no western trained doctors teachers or caretakers get it! Thanks to both of you!!
  • @marceaklein2237
    30 years ago when I started cooking workshops called Food is Medicine. Not much interest at all, but now thanks to you and others our work is out there and now may we live long and provide great benefit to all beings. Thank you for bringing back the light.
