I had coronary heart disease, including blocked arteries, bypass surgery, high blood pressure, high cholesterol level. I was prescribed statins, beta blockers, diuretics, anti-platelet medications. I had a lot of side-effects. I started a Whole Food Plant Based Diet and within a year my blood pressure, cholesterol level and weight came down and my doctor took me off all the medication.
When did you switch to the vegan/plant-based diet?
