CNN The Last Heart Attack

In this 2011 CNN special, Dr. Sajay Gupta spends a year investigating the causes of rampant heart disease in America, and offers some of the key lessons that he learns. As he says: “Things that you need to know, things that your doctor may not be telling you.”
The evidence is overwhelming, he finds, that if people make the right choices and doctors properly inform their patients, that we can rid the country of the biggest killer of men and women in the country. Among his interviewees are Bill Clinton, who talked candidly about how lucky he was that he didn’t die of a heart attack. The show also follows the story of Tom Bear, 53, thin and seemingly healthy, a man who was “ a case of what you see on the outside doesn't always match the inside." He was "one step short of a heart attack."
Dr. Gupta interviews Dr. Ornish about his experience working with Bill Clinton as a consulting physician.

My life as a Chef, was changed forever after meeting Dr. Ornish at the White House in 1995. His teachings have saved me a lot of pain and trouble and my blood work is excellent in 2013! As the Executive Chef to the President of the United States, learning the PMRI and Ornish system has been tasteful and healthy.

Adopting a Plant Based-Diet is the key along with exercise and stress management can treat the causation of Heart Disease. Ornish was right but this segment which is presented fails to show this.

Personally, I think it is all about diet and exercise. Nathan Pritikin showed a very low fat mostly plant based diet and exercise can do the trick.

For heart disease... for autoimmune disorders? Not so much.

@@relaxingaudioforchillongou488 Firstly, that is what this video is about; so of course, that is the disease my comment addresses.
Secondly, Evidence? We know that type-1 diabetes may be the result of an auto-immune response to Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis found in milk and meat. We also know that arthritis and eczema can respond to a plant based diet.
Of course, if you have allergies to some plant foods and you give up those plant foods you will reduce your symptoms, but that is hardly a reason to reduce your consumption of all plant foods.

@@NoExitLoveNow evidence for what? I'm a vegan.
I'm.super confused right now.
Most of the benefits of a vegan diet can be achieved on the pritikin diet (very high fiber.so LOTS of whole plant foods, but it's.not.quite vegan)
But autoommune diseases seem to.require.abstinence (for maximum efficacy) of all animal products.
Yeah, dairy too early probanly causes type 1 diabetes. I told.relatibes that not long ago when they had their first kid.

[@NoExitLoveNow]

@@relaxingaudioforchillongou488 My point was that Pritikin was a trailblazer and that he got a lot of things right, especially, in his first book, which was stricter. He got a few things wrong, but he definitely pointed in the right direction.
Given that was my point, I thought your point was that a whole food plant based diet was not appropriate for autoimmune disorders, and that animal products would be helpful (or less probably some refined oil or something might be helpful).
I wasn't sure from which direction your disagreement regarding autoimmune disorders came from, but I thought there was a high degree of possibility that you might be a Mikhaila Peterson or other carnivore/paleo diet casual follower or devotee.
Sorry for the confusion, and thank you for the clarification.

Sad how there is much unhealthy plant based fast food and desserts out there and I hear eating too much soy is unhealthy.

[@fanniterrette]

Eating too much of anything is unhealthy; that's why we say "too much." :-)
People living in areas where soy is a staple live long lives.

[@neerajdhk]

Vegan diet, way to go. To save yourself from this heart disease.

I happy to be plant based!!!!!
