Dr . Essy is a true humanitarian! Spreading the TRUTH about heart disease and saving lives!

One of the greatest man alive, thanks dr. Esselstyn!

Dr Esselstyn, I want to thank you so much for your intelligent thinking, your willingness to take on so much flak from business interest groups, your genuine concern for the health of your patients, and your commitment to your Hippocratic oath. You have worked so hard, and more work is needed by those that follow, but you have been one of the finest leaders in the plant based food community, and I am so grateful for the help and information I have obtained from you (and others). Thank you!

Check out LCHF Down Under. You might learn something.

Dr. Esselstyn, I have a concern. I carry one copy of the APOE4 allele. My pattern is E4/E3. The users on the APOE4 info website and Dr. Steven Gundry all say that APOE4s cannot eat a high carbohydrate diet and must stick to avocados, olive oil, non-starchy vegetables, and some fish. Indeed, 2.5 hours after eating 8 small purple yams (1.5 to 2 lbs.), my blood glucose is still 148 mg/dL. 5 hours later, it is still 120 mg/dL. I would hate to replace yams, beans, fruits, and oats with avocados and olive oil, but my glucose just is not improving despite eating extremely little fat. I once went on a low carbohydrate diet for several years to control my acne which did not go away despite a low fat high carbohydrate plant based diet, but had to stop because my cholesterol and LDL became elevated. Now I no longer have acne, but my glucose is still unable to be controlled. I never drank dairy back then when I had acne and still do not consume it.

This works perfectly to prevent, halt, and reverse coronary artery disease, which I have. I'm 78 and started the diet 8 years ago, full-bore whole plant food diet, and he has a study out of about 200 people where once again, everyone who did the diet, about 90 percent this time had NO further issues, after suffering heart attacks, strokes, deaths, on the US diet. You might have to be older to get this into your head, but you're very lucky if you can do it, because the benefits go way beyond just fixing your disease. My depression left, ED improved, acid reflux gone, blood sugar came down, I'm happier and more energetic than have been in the last 20 years. You're not gonna believe it if you do it. If.

Just wondering why this cannot be replicated in a randomized control setting? That would seal the deal for many Americans in doubt.

No time is too late. You alone are your greatest help -- you cannot depend on any oustide help, its a selfish vicious world out there. You do not need anyone else to take it seriosuly. As long as you yourself decide to take it seriosuly, you will surmount this trouble. Go for it. Make the change already. Depend on no one else.

The controls are the tens of thousands who did not enter this program.

I'm on Starch Solution by Mcdougall which is not quite as strict as Esselstyn, but Esselstyn is stricter for people with serious heart issues. I had high blood pressure and high cholesterol plus took a med for high blood pressure and high resting heart rate. Then, I went strict whole food-plant based. My total serum cholesterol went from 210 mg/dl (high above 199) to 125 (ideal). It has been ideal for almost 6 years. Further, with doctor supervision I came off the blood pressure and heart rate medication and both were normal. At this time, my blood pressure is like 108/82. Technically that is high because the 82 is above 79, but it is very close. I lost like 50 lb and it stayed off for all that time, years and years.

Following his advice for the last 2 plus years. I think it has helped and certainly did not harm being on a plant base diet. But! I am not convinced that it will reverse heart diseases for everyone. I think that is just too big of a claim.

Makes no sense. He wants us to avoid sugar, but fruits contain lots of fructose and glucose. And grains are mostly starch which gets converted to glucose immediately and the body will convert too much glucose through an intermediary to fructose. Which then causes all the diseases he wants to avoid as they hurt the endothelial.
