Quotes

“Nobody with heart disease should be surprised, they should know years before the event.” (13:18)

“I wish heart disease were wrinkles because we care and can see wrinkles, we cant see heart disease so we don’t care about it as much. But there is probably a relationship between not just earlobe creases. The point is, if you want beautiful glowing skin, eat fruits and vegetables and legumes. At the same time, we know you are going to benefit your cardiovascular system.” (20:11)

“Plant-based, we all get it. 100% plant-based is where I am at, but if you are 90%+ then you are in the sweet spot of the best glowing skin, cardiovascular benefit, reduction, and risk for adult diabetes and such.” (24:50)

“There is confusion because I think we have to define who you are talking too. There is no one size fits all. And in a typical blog on the wellness sights don’t really make that distinction, whereas I am always writing for the heart patient.” (29:19)

“You look at a population of 20 or 30 thousand people who say ‘I don’t have heart disease’, and 20 years later you go visit them and say ‘who had a heart attack? Who is alive, who died of heart disease?’. There are six things that predict developing heart disease in a relatively healthy population.” (37:47)
