The Juicy Bits:
- Early lifestyle physician Nathan Pritikin was the first to say that you can reverse heart disease.
- In 1990, Dr. Dear Ornish was the first to show on imaging heart disease reversal.
- The definition of good health is the absence of disease and disability, but with vitality and good mental health, and without misery and pain.
- We are such a sick society that people don't know how good they can feel. People associate normal with being unhealthy.
- Moses Maimonides: "No disease that can be treated by diet should be treated with any other means." Diet is the safe, simple, side effect-free solution you can add to any treatment plan.
- 106,000 Americans diet from medications every year! We suppress our natural healing process when we take lots of meds.
- Obesity is not a moral failing; it is a battle against biology. We are living in a toxic food environment with excess calories while we're bombarded with ads for junk. Obesity dramatically reduces life span.
- We can de-crap our diets by eating green, leafy vegetables, groats, and spices like turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and vinegar.
- 3 things to add to your diet today: green, leafy veggies, legumes, and berries. 3 things to remove ASAP: trans-fats, processed meats, and liquid candy.
- Dr. Greger's favorite food: purple sweeet potatoes! Try them as fries or frozen and added to smoothies.
