<p>Longtime game show host <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bob-barker-beloved-host-of-the-price-is-right-dead-at-99" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bob Barker</a> — who helmed CBS&#8217; &#8220;The Price Is Right&#8221; from 1972-2007 — died after a battle with Alzheimer&#8217;s Disease.</p>
<p>Entertainment site TMZ was first to <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2023/09/05/bob-barker-cause-of-death-alzheimers-disease-price-is-right/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a> the news, citing the game show icon&#8217;s death certificate. The documents reviewed by the outlet stated that Barker&#8217;s battle with the progressive disease had lasted years — although they did not give specifics regarding when he was diagnosed.</p>
<p>Barker did previously speak out about the disease, teaming up with animal rights group PETA in 2013. Barker and PETA called on especially older people to adopt a vegetarian diet, saying that removing meat from the diet can help to prevent the onset of Alzheimer&#8217;s.</p>

<p>&#8220;Eating meat means that you have a much greater chance of losing your mind,&#8221; Barker said, sharing the fact that he himself had been a vegetarian for nearly three decades. &#8220;So to protect your memory, eat vegetarian, and keep your wits about you into a ripe old age.&#8221;</p>
<p>Barker died peacefully in his home on August 26, TMZ <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2023/08/26/bob-barker-dead-dies-99-price-is-right-game-show-host/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> — and PETA offered a send-off to their former advocate.</p>
<p>&#8220;Bob&#8217;s influence on the entertainment industry is indisputable, but what mattered to him most was using his voice and prominent position to protect animals. Of course, everyone is familiar with his &#8216;spay and neuter your pets&#8217; sign-off on &#8216;The Price Is Right&#8217; — a show where he refused to allow fur prizes — but he was also one of the first stars to go vegetarian, more than 30 years ago,&#8221; PETA stated.</p>
