Let’s cut right to the chase today. A whole food, plant-based diet CAN save your life.
It sounds like hyperbole, but it isn’t, because today’s guest is living proof.
John Tanner was out on a run in 2009 and went into cardiac arrest. He collapsed to the ground and his heart stopped beating. Fortunately, the quick action of others to get help saved his life.
In recovery, John started reading everything he could about the causes of heart disease and how to prevent it. His research, of course, led him to the work of Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn Jr, T. Colin Campbell, and others. He learned what most doctors don’t know:
Heart disease need not exist. It is reversible and, in most cases, preventable.
John tells his harrowing story and discusses the remarkable advocacy work he is doing now with his non-profit NuSci and food delivery company, Little Green Forks.
In fact, he’s offered a generous discount code at Little Green Forks: Rip15New to receive $15 off your order.
A plantstrong diet brought him back to life and it can help you, too.
