Does your doctor live by example? Our guest today is a doctor who certainly walks her talk and then some. Dr. Harriet Davis is an expert on what it takes to change the human body’s composition. Not only is she a Board-Certified family medicine and sports medicine physician, but at the age of 40, she applied her fitness and plant-based nutrition mastery and launched another career competing as a professional bikini athlete. She earned her International Fitness and Bodybuilding Federation pro card in 2014 and graced stages throughout the United States, thus showing the world, and her patients, what’s possible as a 100% vegan athlete.

Tune in to hear Dr. Davis share her inspiring story and wealth of knowledge regarding all things plant-based fitness!

 

“When you can eat 2,200, 2,500 calories a day and not do a lot of cardio, you feel great. You sleep well. You’re less irritable. Your hormones are more balanced. You know, mentally, you’re clear, and your workouts feel amazing, and a lot of times, your weight goes down.” – Dr. Harriet Davis
