The BENEFITS of a PLANT-BASED DIET for the PREVENTION and TREATMENT of HEART DISEASE Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Plant foods contribute to the treatment of heart disease.

Simply eating right can make significant contributions toward extending life expectancy and reducing mortality. An abundance of research has shown that heart disease can potentially be reversed with diet alone in a significant number of patients.

A plant-based diet consists of fruit, grains, legumes, vegetables, and little to no animal foods (i.e. dairy products). Whole foods include those that have undergone a minimal amount of processing, free of artificial and other additives that distract the body from obtaining the original nutrient composition upon digestion. An example of this distinction is seen in white bread, which has ultimately been processed to a point where the product has lost a majority of its whole wheat nutritional value.

This book will examine the role that such an alternative diet may have on the prevention and treatment of heart disease.
