Welcome back to the Health Diet Podcast. On this week’s show we cover more information on reversing heart disease from Dr Caldwell B Esselstyn’s book Prevent And Reverse Heart Disease. Show notes: There is so much you can do to live a healthier life and avoid the major diseases that kill most people. Getting your cholesterol below 150 will almost insure that you will not ever have a heart attack. Why would people choose to have radical heart surgery instead of eating a healthy plant based diet? The Women’s Health Initiative study showed that low fat diets made no difference in the overall health of women, until you really look closely at the study. The study by the NIH claimed the diet they fed these women was low fat, even though it was comprised of 29% fat. Of course it didn’t work. The dietary guidelines recommended by the FDA claim that a healthy diet can consist of between 20 to 35% fat. If you consistently eat a diet that is 35% fat, it will kill you. Research shows that if you have a lifetime cholesterol below 150, even if you smoke, drink and have high blood pressure, you won’t get heart disease. Moderation kills. Even after one high fat meal your blood flow can be seriously impaired. Try a new fruit and a new vegetable that you’ve never eaten before and let us know how you like it. We just ordered a new VitaMix and we are so excited to get it because we’ve been through 3 blenders. You can make everything with a VitaMix. It’s the most heavy duty blender on the market.

On this week’s Healthy Diet Podcast we cover cholesterol and how it contributes to heart disease. We talk more about Dr Esselsten’s book, Prevent And Reverse Heart Disease. Show notes: February was American Heart Month. Did you wear red? The most significant factor in heart disease is your diet, period. However, the medical profession has no incentive to let people know this. Why, because they get most of their revenue from heart procedures. The national healthy plan could be very simple – Eat a plant based diet. Now if we could only get the politicians to work towards that. Heart disease in people with a cholesterol level lover than 150 is nearly non existent. Dr Esselstyn cut out all oils in his diet to get his cholesterol to go from 158 to below 150 because the evidence for health was so compelling. So why in the world does the American Heart Association still recommend a cholesterol level of 200 being okay? Cholesterol is found only animal products. Our body produces all we need and eating animal products add cholesterol to our blood and cause our body to produce even more cholesterol. A high fat meal injures the endothelium, the interior lining of our veins. Even a single high fat meal can injure the endothelium and possibly cause a heart attack. What if we ate low fat meals 365 days a year, how healthy could we be?

The Healthy Diet Podcast for this week covers what you can do to prevent heart disease. Yes, you really have control over this disease. Show notes: We were reminded of how important it is to take care of your health this week when Alan’s mom was taken to the hospital. We also share the number one secret for preventing heart disease after reading the book Prevent And Reverse Heart Disease by Dr Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr. Dr Esselstyn works and the Cleveland Clinic and became disillusioned when he and his colleagues weren’t doing anything to prevent the diseases they were operating on people for. Some of his colleagues weren’t interested in prevent heart disease. In Dr Esselstyn’s research he found that the United States was actually in the minority when it comes to heart disease. In other words, world wide heart disease is not common. People that live in countries that eat a plant based diet don’t have heart disease. The evidence for what may be causing most heart attacks has been changing. They are thought to be caused by a clot rather than blockage from cholesterol. However, they ultimately are cause by cholesterol, but in a different way. The good news is that you can do something about it by eating a plant based diet and keeping your cholesterol below 150, not 200. We reference the famous Framingham Heart Study. Getting your cholesterol below 150 will eliminate heart disease according to Dr Esselstyn’s research. We are going to give 5 of our listener’s the chance to win Prevent And Reverse Heart Disease by Dr Esselstyn.

To watch a video of a message from Dr. Wentz in Windows Media format or Quicktime click the appropriate links. Hello, I’m Dr. Myron Wentz, the founder of Sanoviv Medical Institute. Sanoviv is a state-of-the-art healing center, hospital and research facility; it could change your life forever. I have spent the last 40 years studying the intricacies of human cells: what makes them grow and flourish and what makes them degenerate and eventually die. By cultivating human cells in a healthy laboratory environment, free of toxins and with the proper nutrients, I learned what was necessary to grow healthy human cells. Moreover, I discovered that it is possible to reverse degeneration and disease. Encouraged by my successful research in human cell culture, I began to imagine creating a healing center that addresses an individual’s health at the cellular level. This center would employ the newest advances in diagnostics, treatment, nutrition and detoxification. I set out to create the hospital of the future. This is what I envisioned: A beautiful, immaculate, non-stressful environment that honors the relationship between the mind and body in achieving health; A place that employs only toxin-free building materials and furnishings, free of Electromagnetic Fields and toxic chemicals. A research hospital where the finest medical minds work together with you to properly diagnose any illness and to design a treatment plan to reverse the degeneration and cellular damage that may have already occurred. A place where your cells are flooded with the vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and phyto-nutrients they need to repair and heal. And so I created Sanoviv Medical Institute. The results we are achieving in battling degenerative diseases are astounding. Our guests have experienced everything from Cancer remissions to elimination of their reliance on medication, insulin, pain killers and other treatments that merely masked their symptoms but did not address the root cause of their illness. I urge you to visit Sanoviv, whether you are in good health and would like to stay vibrant and healthy or are suffering from an illness, such as: Heart Disease Cancer Diabetes Stroke Osteoporosis Arthritis Alzheimers Parkinson's Disease Multiple Sclerosis Obesity Fibromyalgia We will create a diagnostic program and treatment plan that is designed to fortify the body’s natural ability to heal itself. On our web site you can see and hear the testimonials of those who have had remarkable results at Sanoviv and are eager to tell the world about the transformation in their health and their new outlook on life.
