The Portfolio Diet Lowers LDL. Then What?
My father went plant-based at 82, right after they put in a stent. His numbers came down. He got off his medications. He felt good — good enough that after a few years he started loosening his grip. Peanut butter here. Restaurants when nobody was watching. Then one day he had chest pain, and my mother drove him to the ER. While he was sitting in that hospital, he had a widowmaker. He lived. He lived because he was forty feet from a cath lab. But it's why I can't let go of the question in this new video. David Jenkins is one of the most respected researchers in nutrition — he gave us the glycemic index, and he's vegan, and not only on health grounds. His Portfolio Diet is backed by randomized trials in JAMA. I have enormous respect for the man and for his work. So here's my question. If you've already had a heart attack — if you're walking around with three stents and an 80% blockage — is lowering LDL enough? That's a very different question. And I don't think anybody has answered it. Subscribe to my Substack (to receive email when I upload): https://vegsource.substack.com/ O U R W E B S I T E https://www.vegsource.com
