Reversing Heart Disease
Heart Disease Is Optional
Caldwell Esselstyn Jr. MD has shown a low-fat plant-based diet can prevent and reverse heart disease – even severe heart disease.
Below are angiograms of a 43-year-old man who had a heart attack, had triple-vessel blockages and was told he needed a bypass and serious medications for his heart disease.
The man picked up a copy of Dr. Esselstyn’s book, Prevent & Reverse Heart Disease, decided to skip the bypass and follow the diet Dr. Esselstyn recommends to reverse heart disease. Using the information and recipes in Dr. Esselstyn and his wife’s work, he reversed his heart disease – shocking his cardiologist.
Here is his progress, showing he went from 80% blockage to no blockage, following the diet program:
This reversal of heart disease is actually a typical result. Dr. Esselstyn published a review of 200 consecutive patients followed for around 4 years. The patients who opted to follow and were adherent to his diet had a 99.4% success rate. Here is from the study abstract:
So only .6% of patients following Dr. Esselstyn’s diet program had any subsequent major cardiac event. Of the 21 patients who opted not to follow Dr. Esselstyn’s diet, 62% had subsequent major cardiac events. This is a small part of the body of research demonstrating heart disease can be eliminated through a healthy, low-fat plant-based diet.
