Well, I've been on this diet for over a year, minus cheating with oils and had cheese about 5 times and one teen burger. Results, which may be psychosomatic are: dropped 40 lbs in 6 weeks and kept 30 of it off for a year. Sleep apnea is gone. Breathing is clear for the first time in my life. Bp has dropped 20 points. All stomach/intestinal issues disappeared in 3 days. Stronger muscles with more endurance. I require less sleep (7 hours) now. I was hoping to avoid meat and dairy for a year...now I can't see myself going back...I feel twenty years younger. Oh and a lot of my aches and pains have gone away too, including chest pain. I am currently 50 years old.

A way to reverse CAD? That study changed my life. I was a small town farm boy from Indiana. I moved to Denver and helped people adopt a WFPB SOS flour free diet/lifestyle and then moved to Silicon Valley and once again helped people adopt a WFPB SOS flour free diet/lifestyle. All who have adopted this diet/lifestyle thrive! 🌱🤙❤️ rock on!

Bok Choi, Swiss Chard, Kale, Collards, Collard Greens, Pea Greens, Mustard Greens, Beet Greens, ?, Brussel Sprouts, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Cilantro (coriander), Parsley, Spinach, and Arugula (Rocket).

This is an excellent talk from Dr. Esseslstyn. For anyone that is curious about the link between heart disease and diet, take 15-minutes and watch this video.

Come St. Patrick's Day this year and I'm 3 years WFPB (whole food plant based, modified slightly) and LOVE IT. Lighter and healthier and less aches and pains and no more regular consumptionn of OTC drugs (and no Rx drugs either). I'm 51. WISH I'd started sooner, but you're never too old to start the healing. Make the leap.

Dr Esselstyn is so badass...love this talk!!

Love a dr. that understands the body God has given us if treated right can heal itself. Most dr.'s are afraid to say this for fear of losing their license, but when you are more concerned with saving lives i promise nothing else matter. God bless him and his family.

I had a heart attack, a few years back and then a quadruple bypass. All before 32yrs of age. Although I'm on a sort of veggie diet, as I still eat fish. As the information I got was it would help me as they have Omega3 in them. But I'm convinced by this talk to go strictly plant-based. Hopefully this will improve my health even more. THXS, DOC.

+Boyer Coe Partially wrong. Live expectancy and diet have a linear corralation. You increase your live expectancy and general health by getting rid of animal products. Smoking and drinking result in specific diseases. Drinking is a part of someones diet, if that person has a health risk from it. Smoking: Most prominently lung cancer and increased body acidity (really bad, because inflamation risk increases). Extreme and consistant drinking: Heart: Cardiomyopathy - Stretching and drooping of heart muscle Arrhythmias - Irregular heart beat, Stroke, High blood pressure. Research also shows that drinking moderate amounts of alcohol may protect healthy adults from developing coronary heart disease. Liver: Variety of problems and liver inflammations including: Steatosis, or fatty liver Alcoholic hepatitis Fibrosis Cirrhosis Pancreas: Alcohol causes the pancreas to produce toxic substances that can eventually lead to pancreatitis, a dangerous inflammation and swelling of the blood vessels in the pancreas that prevents proper digestion. Cancer: Drinking too much alcohol can increase your risk of developing certain cancers, including cancers of the: Mouth Esophagus Throat Liver Breast. Conclusion: What i want to say is that your mother isnt "healthy", because she doesnt drink and smoke. It most definetly has something to do with her diet choices, so you were right with the drinking part, but she is this healthy, because she either has really good genes and/or she is on top of her diet/has an andequate diet.

What a relief to realize that this disease was not an inevitability but that I had the power to keep my heart healthy by changing my diet! This man + Dean Ornish should get the Nobel price in medicine.

This changed my life. Even though I was already plant based, I added the greens to our diet twice a day and continue to see improvements in every area of health several months later. It is nothing short of amazing. THANK YOU Dr. Esselstyn for preaching and preaching and preaching. You do make a difference in the world.

Joe D that's a presumption on your behalf. I don't work in the dairy or meat industry, in my opinion grass fed meat from natural farms using natural fertilizer is healthy food, the same goes for butter some cheeses and wild fish and naturally grown vegetables, especially leafy greens. The biggest problem in the built up world today is the big corporate entities pushing their overly processed products onto the shelves of the supermarkets which covers all elements of food. if you go into a grocery or supermarket today to buy healthy food, you will be hard pushed to find anything that resembles genuine good food. So this battle between veganism and carnivore etc is irrelevant when both are being sold in both the good and bad forms of themselves. Whats more important is to educate ourselves about the good and bad version of our foods, and buy from the genuine producer and not the pusher of bad food and bad health, and stop blaming each other. Eat good whole foods, avoid synthetic or chemical processing etc. This is the formula for good health, also eat less often, only when you are genuinely hungry and eat less at a sitting. like i said this is my opinion, but it comes from years of research both at a science and practical level, but i am not a Scientist or a Doctor by profession.I am just an ordinary person with an ordinary job, that educated himself about health and well - being. I Also believe the biggest killer in today's world is not heart disease, but high stress levels from the corporate sector push for profits. This has come about from a well oiled Advertising machine which will not refuse money, and the bigger the funding the better. And last but not least, the lack of connection now among people all over the built up world is a major cause of illness especially emotionally, caused by the massive surge in the digital corporate world, which of course lines their pockets, and of course also the pockets of the psychiatric and medical industries. So, their are many corporate interests out there, you already mentioned two,. you see at that level of industry, health and well - being are not part of the plan. No, the industry must grow and expand and make money and become a powerful entity in the corporate ladder.

I accepted this as God's will and decided to live with this disease but always felt anxious and depressed as most research and stigma around heart disease is negative and always made it feel that I would inevitably die of heart disease and after having kids now being 32, I entered into bad depression about my life expectancy although now I have lost 18kgs, ceased all smoking and eat very healthy. I was feeling really bad until I came across Dr Esselstyn's videos and now I have hope for myself that I can lead a normal and long life, I have also ordered his book which includes all of the recipes etc and have accepted that I must change my life even further and adapt a more healthier lifestyle if I'm to be here for a long time and not have any further cardiac complications in the future.

I appreciate this video

My Kaiser Doctor turned me onto Esselstyn and Dean Ornish as having the answers to reversing heart disease and i found Esselstyn's ideas to be outstanding and of real value. I pass this information onto my stubborn brother but There an old saying, "You can lead a horse to water (but you can't make him/it drink). My youtube parrot videos get more interest than these lectures but know that Dr. Esselstyn is not about "fake news". He is the real deal on reversing heart disease and preventing heart disease.

Ok count me in...ALL IN 💯

big thanks for just being honest dc

Super my doc. Buon Natale a te e famiglia. Ciao dall'Italia.

I like to know the patient he is talking about made that fascinating recovery in 3 months or 30 months. Thanks.

If you watch "Forks over knives" they show some examples of the patients and how fast they recovered.

baking potatoes and veggies w/o oil also works. Even frying with water is possible (although it won't get crispy). My go-to is stews now. Soups and stews!

Air fryers make them crispy with no oil. No reason at all to use oil ever again if you get an air fryer.

True hero!

Brilliant man

Don't just stop at rice. There are sooo many grain choices out there: farro, amaranth, barley, millet, teff, buckwheat, spelt, bulgur, sorghum, wheatberry. Try them all !!!!! They each have their own nutrition to add for a healthy body and brain.

I go for a blood test this coming week, and I'll be very interested to see what my cholesterol levels are now, as opposed to what they were prior to starting this type of diet. I have a feeling it will be very good!

HELP NEEDED: I have been following Dr esselstyn diet for over two years, hitting LDL of 43mg/dl, total cholesterol 85mg/dl. But my lipoprotein A is much higher than recommended level. This got me really worried as there is a direct correlation between Cardiovascular disease and Lipoprotein A, what do I do? How comes the plant based diet not having any affect on lipoprotein A?

LP(a) is almost entirely hereditary - you'll still benefit from making these changes in fact, it's more important for high LP(a) individuals to pay attention to this message.
