The Exam Room by the Physicians Committee
Health & Fitness:Nutrition
The power of food is extraordinary. Every 33 seconds in the U.S. someone will die of cardiovascular disease, but you do not have to be a statistic.
For the first time, groundbreaking research is proving definitively that even patients who already have the disease, as well as those who are at high risk of developing it, can dramatically improve their heart health.
Dr. Neal Barnard and "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll discuss the analysis of nearly 2,000 patients and the effect that an infusion of nonanimal foods had on their cardiometabolic function.
The results point directly to the benefit of vegan and vegetarian diets to both prevent and, in many cases, reverse heart disease.
Topic Discussed
- How these findings differ from previous heart disease research
- Alcohol's effect on blood pressure
- Which foods are healthiest for the heart
- The effect of animal protein on heart function
- And more
Dr. Barnard will be speaking at the 2023 International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine.
This episode of The Exam Room™ Podcast is sponsored by The Gregory J. Reiter Memorial Fund, which supports organizations like the Physicians Committee that carry on Greg’s passion and love for animals through rescue efforts, veganism, and wildlife conservation.
