What Do Khaw Boon Wan and Bill Clinton Have in Common?
We all know that Singapore’s Health Minister Khaw Boon Wan and former US president Bill Clinton are prominent statesmen. Few, however, know that both men were inspired to adopt a plant-based diet. Their common source of inspiration? The work of Dr Caldwell Esselstyn of the world renowned Cleveland (USA) Clinic and author of 'Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease’.
Based on the groundbreaking results of his 20-year nutritional study - the longest study of its kind ever conducted - Dr Esselstyn’s book explains, with scientific evidence, how a plant-based diet can not only prevent and stop the progression of heart disease, but also reverse its effects.
The patients in Dr. Esselstyn’s pioneering study came to him with advanced coronary artery disease. Despite the aggressive treatment they had received prior to seeing Dr Esselstyn, including bypasses and angioplasties, 5 of the original group had been told by their cardiologists they had less than a year to live.Within months on Dr. Esselstyn’s program, their cholesterol levels, angina symptoms, and blood flow improved dramatically!
