NBA Legend Goes Vegan, Wants to Live Another 60 Years | John Salley | The Exam Room Podcast

John Salley was one of the "Bad Boys" of the NBA and one of the stars of the Bad Boys movie franchise. But he's also doing good things to improve his health and inspire others.

The 60-year-old has a goal to spend the next 60 years of his life teaching the world about health and wellness. And for Salley, that begins with his plant-based diet.

He joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to peel back the curtain on his transition from the basketball court to Hollywood and health world.

Topics discussed:
- Has he ever gotten Bad Boys co-stars Will Smith and Martin Lawrence to try vegan food?
- Detoxing with food to get healthy
- Barriers to optimal nutrition in NBA
- Betta Life Nutrition
- Comparing the body to a Formula 1 car
- Juice vs. whole fruit
- Chinese sweet potatoes
- Are fake meats healthy?
- And more!
