I’m really excited because plant-based nutrition as a means of improving your health has been in the media a lot the last few days! Former President Bill Clinton was in a special on CNN this past Thursday discussing his dramatic transformation after switching to a plant-based diet! He had severe coronary artery disease, and despite a quadruple bypass operation the disease was still progressing rapidly. After switching his diet all his blood-work improved, he lost 20+lbs, and has arrested his heart disease! And guess who his doctors overseeing his transition were? 2 of our favorites, Dr. Dean Ornish and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn! Read the whole story here.
As a follow-up, a front page report on Dr. Esselstyn’s heat attack-proof diet came out the next day! Check that out here!
Tonight at 8pm EST&PST CNN’s Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta reports on heart disease and diet on his special “The Last Heart Attack“. It will cover President Clinton’s dietary change as well as research from Dr. Esselstyn, Dr. Ornish, and others! Watch it tonight and tell your friends and family to tune in too!
