The epidemic of cardiovascular disease is nonexistent in cultures which thrive
predominantly on whole foods, plant-based nutrition. Is it logical to assume that patients
with this disease would be willing to transition to plant-based nutrition and might this
transition halt or reverse the disease? The authors have experience beyond 25 years
demonstrating the success of plant-based nutrition in arresting and reversing
cardiovascular disease. Nevertheless, the medical community is still skeptical of
patients’ adherence and efficacy of this method. We, therefore, report three case
histories of carotid, coronary, and peripheral vascular disease. Each case demonstrates
disease progression and the failure of the standard cardiovascular approaches in
contrast to the prompt, powerful and enduring resolution of disease with whole foods,
plant-based nutrition. These outcomes constitute an additional mandate that patients
with cardiovascular disease be offered a plant-based option which is safe, inexpensive,
empowering, and has the potential to end the cardiovascular disease epidemic.
