This week on Heart Doc VIP, Dr. Joel Kahn breaks down a new study out of New Zealand examining whether vegans are getting enough of two key amino acids: leucine and lysine. Using real-world dietary histories, researchers found no health issues among participants—but the debate around plant-based protein continues.

Dr. Kahn dives into top plant-based sources of these essential aminos (think beans, soy, quinoa), and why the ongoing conversation around protein needs and sources matters more than ever.

Plus, he shares insights from three more new studies you won’t want to miss:

  • Updates on the KETO-CT study
  • New data on healthy plant diets in African-Americans
  • Surprising benefits of adding just one more fruit or veggie to your day
  • The impact of low-carb eating once or twice a week
  • The crucial role of Vitamin D in cancer prevention
