Dr. Dean Ornish on the Philosophy and Steps to Lasting Health and Fulfillment

This episode is one of my favorites I've ever done. Dr. Dean Ornish (Ornish.com) has authored 7 nationally best-selling books, and his 2019 book UnDo It! (written with his wife Anne) is a masterpiece that has followed suit.   He's been the doctor to presidents and the public; and his treatments have healed millions. His Ornish Diet has ranked as the healthiest diet for eight straight years by U.S. News.   Our conversation starts off with a surprise and goes deep from there. Here's a sampling of what you'll hear: -- Dr. Ornish's origin story: How he planned to kill himself as a "failed" student, what changed his life, and how he came to talk openly about it. -- The definitive science of what causes more than 80% of the nation's chronic diseases. -- How a plant-based diet provides abundant protein and the best nutrients to heal Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, some cancers and more. -- How his meditation fueled him to change medicine. -- Why the world's most famous heart surgeon -- at age 99 -- called to thank him. -- And Much more...   Thanks for listening...
