I appreciate the fitness and vegan info for athletes . I do not listen to this show to get an earful of social or political commentary from gist or guests. Do you really think everyone who listens agrees with where you fall on that spectrum or are we continuing assumptions and stereotypes? Here is a suggestion: stick to the topic of your podcast and hold your opinions on the state of politics . Thank you

I absolutely love this podcast. Karina kicks it out of the park. I’m vegan and wanted to get some facts and vegan information that helps me with nutrition and fitness. I’m also a client. I’ve been doing yoga for over 10 years and always had upper back pain. Coach Karina and Coach Zoe put me on a strength training program and my back pain is now pain free. I’m so happy and thankful I found them and this podcast.

This podcast is absolutely phenomenal! It strikes the perfect balance between being provocative, inspirational, and motivational, all thanks to an amazing host at the helm. I can't express enough how much I LOVE it! The content consistently inspires me, pushing boundaries while also providing thoughtful insights into the vegan lifestyle. Whether you're well-versed in veganism or just curious about it, this podcast has something to offer. Its unique approach, combined with the host's passion and knowledge, truly sets it apart. Highly recommended for anyone looking to be inspired and informed! - Dr. EZ

I have been vegan for years and someone recommended this podcast to me. Great listen and look forward to more episodes.

I am always pleased when the vegan and vegan fitness community grows and promotes the amazing benefits of this lifestyle. But I was hugely disappointed to see an entire podcast dedicated to hating on the largest animal rights group, giving a one-sided opinion piece of PETA. It was misinformed, unscientific, and did nothing to promote an environment of vegans supporting other vegans. The reference that all vegans are turned off of PETA is ridiculous, considering PETA entities have more than 9 million members and supporters globally. I expected more!

I listen primarily to the episodes about nutrition. It’s awesome to hear all of these interviews with fitness coaches, nutritionists, doctors and business owners. It allows me to be informed and educated right from home (I’m in the hot tub right now)!

Found this podcast by accident and was an immediate fan. Totally inspiring and a great way for vegans to unite, the guest are empowering and always giving great advice and sharing inspirational ideas and stories. Best discovery I’ve made while searching for a podcast. PS: 5/5/21 Thank you Karina🙏 I’m humbled to be mentioned on your amazing podcast. Johnny

I found the NBSV podcast while I was tiptoeing around being vegan curious and I was really intrigued by the myth busting element. I have since learned to appreciate the rest of her topics, her style, her lack of advertising, and the rest of her team. If you are new to veganism and need to have info at the ready for concerned loved ones or if you are a veteran just looking for some good discussion, I highly recommend.

It’s good, informative and generally fun. She’s not trying to sell you anything, Helps me in my day to day living, and the host plays accordion!

Karina offers a science based practical way to go Vegan. I went vegan a decade ago the wrong way (and I became unhealthier as a result) and wish I had access to info like this back then!

Finally someone’s putting perspective on Dr. Gundry’s tirades against this lectin phantom menace. When you’re pushing pet theories (along with expensive merchandise) that’s a mixture of fact, pseudo-facts, conjecture, and myth, it’s nice to have someone put this package in perspective...and it’s done without ad hominem attacks!... How refreshing given 45’s repugnant behavior that some would emulate. Highly recommended.

As a brand new vegan, it’s been difficult to find informative and entertaining content about healthy decisions that are supportive to this life choice. This podcast provides a breadth of info from different guests with an aim towards debunking myths and approaching popular culture with a healthy dose of skepticism. I hope that you continue to bring on a variety of guests to discuss all sorts of vegan-related topics. (your latest episode 85 is a great example! mental well being through a vegan lens is a really interesting topic and I hope that you bring on other guests to dive deeper into topics such as dealing with Cognitive Dissonance while navigating a meat eating society that loves cute and fuzzy animals…)

Have been listening to the No BS podcast for a year now, after hearing Karina as a guest on Star Talk radio’s sports spinoff - Playing with Science. Karina has amazing guests, spanning a full range of topics. A fantastic podcast for an all around healthily lifestyle.

I became a vegan about 11 months ago and this podcast has helped me so much on my journey. I love listening to this podcast and continuing to improve my diet. This podcast is truly a combination of educational, fun and inspirational material!

I almost skipped this episode because I was specifically looking for episodes focused on veganism. This episode was so great and right on the money (pun intended, Compound interest). It was so energizing. I gave up running for my 40th birthday last year and now I walk 2-4 miles every afternoon in addition to strength training in the morning. I never looked forward to my afternoon run because it was hard and made my legs hurt. I always look forward to my afternoon walks. They allow me to reflect on my day and listen to podcast that educate and feed me. I’m also getting better results! Glad I found this! Thank you!

I was very happy to find this podcast. Podcasts are the perfect motivation for continuing this lifestyle change. I have been telling my family and friends that a vegan lifestyle is easy to maintain because there are multiple motivating factors. Health, environment, compassion for living things and the food tastes amazing! This podcast resonated with me when Karina and her guest were discussing this multi-motivational approach. Every other fad diet or lifestyle change uses only one motivation-that’s why they fail. I cant believe it took me 42 years to make this change, but I’m so happy I did! Thank you for promoting this lifestyle Karina!

Info on everything from diet to excursive. One of the best for me being WFPB.

Great and informative. Karina does a phenomenal job at keeping the facts forefront and is not afraid to self-check and check other misinformation in the vegan movement. The podcast is great for the already conformed vegans or the others, like me, who are interested and leaning toward a vegan lifestyle change. It is great for athletes trying to take their game to the next level as well as the active hobbyists taking to living a more healthy life. The show approaches veganism from the health, ethical, and environmental angles to bust myths about the diet that appeal to every “flavor” of vegan and anyone curious about the diet. Thank you, Karina, for a great podcast and pushing me to try new vegan recipes and transitioning into a plant-based diet.

Karina sets the record straight on all things vegan with science and facts...not her personal opinion. She is even willing to have opposing opinions come onto the podcast to make sure all avenues of a topic are addressed. If you’re curious about eating vegan, this podcast is a fantastic resource. Well done, Karina

Just the facts. Really enjoyed the podcast from the beginning of the year about discipline vs motivation. I think about it when I’m debating whether to work out or not. And then I work out!

Karina and her podcast are simply the BEST ☺️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

This podcast is my go-to every weekend when I meal prep and rest/recharge for the week. I love the people that Karina brings on and I love the insight Karina brings to the table. Bravo and keep these episodes comin!💕

This podcast has a ton of great info! As a healthcare provider encouraging my patients to eat less animal products, it’s always great to learn more about evidence based nutrition and the benefits of being vegan! 🌱

What an awesome variety of topics presenting in a fascinating way! Thanks so much for offering this pod :)

Great podcast!

I never leave podcast reviews but that changes today! Katrina is engaging and her shows are very informative. I only started listening a few weeks ago but I’ve been on a binge and I’ve learned so much. It took her five years to make the switch from vegetarian to vegan, but it took me 22 years. I’m happy to have her by my side (virtually!) as I learn about nutrition, fitness and veganism in general.

What a great podcast!!! This podcast was very interesting and full of important information. I enjoyed listening and learning from it!! Thank you to all who made this podcast possible. Thank you for helping me become a better vegan. I love your podcast!

A treasure trove of evidence-based fitness information presented with humor, insightful perspectives and questions for her variety of guests. Thanks for all your work and helping to virtually kick our "donkeys"!

An awesome foundation of unique and interesting guests with a fair & balanced perspectives helping our world to be healthier and thrive!

This show is great for vegans and non-vegans alike and Karina is one of the most relatable and accessible fitness professionals out there. There's SO MUCH inaccurate health info floating around these days, it's such a relief to have a place to go for solid, evidence-based, legit fitness and nutrition advice.

This is the best, most educational podcast regarding vegan health and fitness.

Interesting and informative! Great information for anyone who has athletic goals and/or is interested in plant-based nutrition.
