President Bill Clinton Credits Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn for Weight Loss and Heart Health Benefits
Groundbreaking program backed by the irrefutable results from Dr. Esselstyn's 20-year study proving changes in diet and nutrition can actually cure heart disease
NEW YORK, Oct. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- This week, Former President Bill Clinton spoke to the nation about the benefits of his revolutionary heart health program based on a diet created by Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn. Following a plant-based diet like the diet in Dr. Esselstyn's groundbreaking book Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease, published by Avery, an imprint of Penguin Group USA, President Clinton was able to lose twenty-four pounds and improve his heart function. In an interview with Wolf Blitzer, he credited his health to a movement lead by Dr. Esselstyn, a movement in dramatically improving cardiovascular health and treating heart disease rather than its symptoms. This interview and Dr. Esselstyn's follow-up appearance can be viewed on Dr. Esselstyn's website: www.heartattackproof.com.
Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States for men and women. But, as Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., explains in Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease, it can be prevented, reversed, and even abolished. Dr. Esselstyn argues that conventional cardiology has failed patients by developing treatments that focus only on the symptoms of heart disease, not the cause. People who undergo surgery for stents, will typically have recurring symptoms and repeat cholesterol problems. Not so with Dr. Esselstyn's approach.
Based on the groundbreaking results of his 20-year nutritional study—the longest study of its kind ever conducted—Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease explains, with irrefutable scientific evidence, how we can end the heart disease epidemic in this country forever by changing what we eat to a plant-based, oil-free diet.
Dr. Esselstyn is available to discuss the benefits former President Bill Clinton has received from following his diet. Dr. Esselstyn can also speak about the groundbreaking work that lead to the book and the incredible paradigm shift in heart disease therapy that will save thousands of lives in America and abroad.
