On today\'s minicast, we are speaking with Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn Jr., a medical doctor who promotes a plant-based diet. He is the author of Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease and is a former Olympic gold medalist in rowing. Recently he was in Windsor doing a talk on his revolutionary, scientifically-proven, nutrition-based cure for heart disease. After the talk we were able to pull him aside for a short interview.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Cardiovascular disease is preventable
  • Consuming oil is detrimental to your health
  • The magic molecule that protects our blood vessels
  • The Mediterranean diet isn\'t healthy
  • How to get through to a "healthy" younger population
  • Changes in the natural health world over the past 30 years
  • How Dr. Esselstyn\'s career evolved
