Dr. Dean Ornish: UnDo It! Reversing Chronic Disease with Lifestyle





Living with multiple sclerosis




Living with multiple sclerosis has necessitated choosing a healthy lifestyle and Dean Ornish provided the best science based healthful living ideas.


Dr. Dean Ornish has been our food guide since I read his first book.  Nathan Pritikin had already influence my thinking about healthy eating.  Ornish has produced many science based studies, unlike most diet gurus that simply make unsubstantiated claims.   He has continuously expanded his lifestyle medicine applications so i'm passing on updated information. 


The author, Dean Ornish, founder of the nonprofit Preventive Medicine Research Institute, is no newcomer to these nutrition debates. For 41 years he has been touting the benefits of very low-fat, high-carbohydrate, vegetarian diets for preventing and reversing heart disease

In this interview we discuss his new book, "UnDo It! How simple lifestyle changes can reverse most chronic diseases." His tenants are Eat Well (hint...it's plants), Move More, Stress Less, Love More.
