"This powerful program will make you virtually heart-attack proof."
—NEAL BARNARD, M.D., president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and author of Dr. Neal Barnard's Program for Reversing Diabetes
In Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease, Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., a former surgeon, researcher, and clinician at the Cleveland Clinic, challenges conventional cardiology by posing a compelling, revolutionary idea—that we can, in fact, abolish the heart-disease epidemic by changing our diets.
Drawing from his twenty-year nutritional study—the most comprehensive study of its kind—Dr. Esselstyn convincingly argues that plant-based, oil-free nutrition can not only prevent and stop the progression of heart disease, but also reverse its effects.

"This powerful program will make you virtually heart-attack proof."
—NEAL BARNARD, M.D., president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and author of Dr. Neal Barnard's Program for Reversing Diabetes
In Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease, Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., a former surgeon, researcher, and clinician at the Cleveland Clinic, challenges conventional cardiology by posing a compelling, revolutionary idea—that we can, in fact, abolish the heart-disease epidemic by changing our diets.
Drawing from his twenty-year nutritional study—the most comprehensive study of its kind—Dr. Esselstyn convincingly argues that plant-based, oil-free nutrition can not only prevent and stop the progression of heart disease, but also reverse its effects. The proof is in the incredible results of the patients who have followed his groundbreaking program. The men and women in his original study came to him with advanced coronary disease. Within months of following a plant-based, óil-free diet, their angina symptoms eased, their cholesterol levels dropped significantly, and they experienced a marked improvement in blood flow to the heart. Twenty years later, they remain free of symptoms.
Offering the same simple plan that has changed the lives of his patients forever, the book includes 150 delicious recipes developed by Ann Crile Esselstyn that the Esselstyns and their patients have enjoyed for years. Backed by irrefutable scientific evidence, startling photos of angiograms that show reversal of the disease, and inspiring personal stories, Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease will empower readers to take charge of their heart health.
Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., M.D., was a surgeon, clinician, and researcher at the Cleveland Clinic for more than thirty-five years, where he was a member of the board of governors and president of the staff. In 1991, Dr. Esselstyn served as the president of the American Association of Endocrine Surgeons, and organized the first National Conference on the Elimination and Prevention of Heart Disease. In 2005, he became the first recipient of the Benjamin Spock Award for Compassion in Medicine. Dr. Esselstyn is also an Olympic gold medalist in rowing, and was awarded the Bronze Star as an army surgeon in Vietnam.
Dr. Esselstyn and his wife, Ann Crile Esselstyn, have followed a plant-based diet for more than twenty years. They work together to counsel patients in Cleveland.
