I started drinking a cup of pomegranate juice every day. Studies have shown the juice will dissolve plaque buildup in the arteries. After 2 months of drinking the juice, I stopped having chest pains. 7 months now, and still no chest pains. I also changed my diet to mostly fruits and vegetables.
Thank you, Dr. Williams, for taking the time to stay on top of the published evidence based, peer reviewed literature and then going to the trouble of bringing this information to the international public.
I am 83 years old and never a smoker and not a drinker. This is my first time seeing dr. Williams. Chuck thanks for allowing all these great doctors on your show. My problem is i don’t sleep good at night. Most nights I only get 5 hours I seldom get 6 hours. I just started on a plant based diet. I was a vegetarian for 15 years but fell off by preparing meals for my family. I am on my grandson U Tube. My name is Monica. I am taking blood pressure meds and have been taking it for years.
Ana I totally agree with you! I think my problem is I am thinking about things that going on in my family that I have no control over because it’s not mine to fix but I just can’t break that habit. I have tried all kinds of teas to see if it would help me to relax but it doesn’t work, in my situation I decide to stop worrying the amount of sleep I get and give thanks 🙏 to my creator. Be blessed Ana everything will work out in due time. M G
I’m loving having a narrower feeding window (just started that last week)-pls check out the interviews of author Steve Hendricks (The Oldest Cure In the World) and Dr John McDougall if you get a chance
Always great to hear from Dr Williams, but as an exercise professional a small correction, isometric exercise is when your muscle doesn't change length - no lengthening or shortening - and it increases your blood pressure.
Loved the show Chuck! I would love for Dr Kim Williams to interview my great aunt Ruby Woods she’s around 90 years old or older. Lives in the heart of Appalachia Leslie County Kentucky. She had a heart attack over 20 years ago her doctor added stints and told her Ruby I want you to stop smoking and drinking alcohol. She said she walked out of the hospital and never smoked another cigarette and never drank another drop of alcohol. She is in excellent health normal weight eats chicken Cornish game hen and fish beans and cornbread. Vegetables and fruits they use to always have a big garden. She looks forward to going to town on Fridays for catfish hush puppies coleslaw and fries. Her mother a school teacher lived to be around 100 years old. Her great grandson is studying at university of Kentucky to be a Doctor specializing in cardiology. I wish he could connect with Dr Williams to be his mentor. I deeply appreciate what Dr Williams is doing to educate the Appalachian communities .
I work graveyard shift twice a week & 54 hours a week. I never seem to get to bed early, usually around 12-2am. Sometimes I only get 2-4 hours of sleep a night. I have palpitations. I do eat my vegetables and watch what I eat! Any suggestions on how I can get more sleep?
I am very happy to get this valuable information that no other doctor would give from their office. Than you dear doctors, it’s a pity I could not remember everything. Thanks, thanks, ♥️😄
I thought research was showing that processed oils damaged the endothelial lining and we need to avoid all of them-EVOO included? Food tastes better without it anyway…. Am in Louisville and I’m delighted to learn that Dr Weber is here now!
Certain cold pressed oils are not a problem, like EVO, avocado oil, coconut oil, algae oil, camelina oil, sacha inchi oil. Look at the diet of the centenarians in the blue zones. They use plenty of olive oil.
you're right. this guy is reductionist. the vast majority of research states it is dangerous for heart health. he is spread a very dangerous message and i am glad to see many more informed listeners/commenters pushing back against his terrible advice.
@@user-cs1xz I don’t know if I’d agree that he’s a reductionist-but our Drs need to have faith in us-processed oils are not necessary or healthy (studies demonstrate this).
I'm still sceptical. This benefit is from a cardiology prospective only. But, any oil can increase other (non-cardiology) risks. For example, it increases inflammation thus increased the risk of autoimmune disease (among other things).
@@kathysharp7551 All refined products be they oils, sugars, and grains are detrimental to health. We are designed to eat whole plants, ie) olives, avocado, sugar cane, fruit, etc. Skins, husks, seeds and plant. Extracting sugars and oils in isolated form is asking for trouble.
@@presterjohn1697 I totally agree. That's why I love all the content provided by Chef AJ and her guests 💖😁 If you have other favorite channels on yt, please let me know a couple.
@@debbY100 Dr. Brooke Goldner is an expert in treating autoimmune disease. She says stop all oils because they are inflamitory. She makes no exceptions. Instead get those beneficial chemicals from dark leafy greens. If we can get the same benefit from greens, I say skip the oils which have risks that greens do not. Plus greens have lots of other nutrients (nutrient dense, not calorically dense..the exact opposite of oils). Also, oils are a big contributor to excess calories which mess up everything in the body. I'm super far from perfect, but I definatley avoid cooking with oil, and I avoid adding oil to salads (ie no commercial. Salad dressings).
I am a thin person and I do not benefit from adding EVOO. It raises my lipid #'s.. I was on the fence about this because of varied studies on EVOO and do benefit by not adding oils.Rather , eating some whole olives during the week since they have fiber . I realize that being thin means adding oil increases calories and helps to maintain weight however not all individuals respond favorably to extracted oils.
So relieved to hear about the olive and canola oils for heart health…. We’ve recently gone from SOS vegans to SS vegans, but still have habit of not using oils like in salad and cooking….SO MUCH EASIER as most recipes usually include these oils. Curious to see if our LDL levels have go down…
SALT: Roman soldiers were paid in salt. It was always used for preservation of meat and fish and for fermentation. I'm not convinced it's a bad thing if it's natural sea salt or pink salt.
Sea salt and pink salt are just high priced salt with impurities. The issue, in any case, is not salt it is the sodium which is about 40% of salt (table, sea and pink). You are going to get just as much sodium with sea or pink salt as you are with ordinary table salt. All this stuff about sea and pink salts is just marketing hype.
I have a question about the comments about sleep. What if the hormone imbalance is from menopause and not lack of sleep. The lack of sleep is a part of menopause. Getting up in the night is my new routine. Does the doctor have recommendations for if the hormones are out of wack?
They don’t talk about woman on menopause barely get no sleep like what can we do to fix this. I barely get no sleep Dr don’t want to give me anything for it or a solution. 🤦♀️
@@donnaellis2438 yeah people underestimate COVID because it doesn’t kill them (even tho it killed many people), but it can still do a number on you, on things you see and things you don’t, like cardiovascular health.
@@hugomarquez3189 The theory of covid causing heart problems was shown to be false. It's mRNA induced. Heart incidents skyrocketed in 2021 following the mandates.
@@donnaellis2438 2021 served as the largest increase in heart attacks of the past century. It's the big elephant in the room at this point. The medical industry is working overtime to normalize these events for the purpose of shielding Pharma and the US government from accountability.
I'd be interested to see what you think of our ancestral diet and stable isotope analysis (hard science and pretty irrefutable in my mind ). I'm prepared to have my mind changed if there is better evidence .
I am 76 years and a stroke survivor. I am on cholesterol, and high blood pressure, and 6 months ago I had a test that showed I was losing bone density. What do to improve my bone density, blood pressure, and cholesterol? Thank you
Hi first time I'm enjoying, look back in 2016 I had two stents put in as of right now I'm 75 years old and I also I have COPD emphysema I try to eat healthy I don't smoke I quit smoking back in 2016 I don't drink any alcohol beverages since nineteen eighty-six no alcohol so as of right now I'm doing okay on my own I need no help to do anything at this point to walk or anything I put on my clothes cook my own food I also have blood pressure problems and cholesterol I weigh 120 lb 5'8"so against I walk 2 2/3 miles everyday and I'll try to eat healthier what you think. I appreciate
A couple of years ago I read a great little book on natural healing called ‘My Physician, Myself’, written by an older man who cured himself of a number of maladies without medical intervention. It’s available on Amazon and well worth the read. You might also look into the work of Luigi Cornaro, a Venetian nobleman who lived to 102. Anyone interested maintaining healthy senior years should read this this book, and something by Cornaro. His books are very short but very pointed.
I think people has to be educated on the big difference between simply olive oil versus Extra Virgin Olive oil. Bec it could be a business & commercial decision to cut on cost on the part of starbucks and decide to use just hot pressed olive oil.
For those suffering with CVD/HBP, egg yolks should be avoided. For me who no such malady, I egg egg yolks for the choline, proteins and other nutrients - and I also exercise at 69 years old.
Oatmeal with flaxseed, cinnamon, walnuts,and apple with almond milk most days of the week made a significant improvement to my cholesterol and regularity to the digestive system.
I really enjoyed this episode but to be honest I was cringing when oils were being touted as beneficial for anyone even if they are thin, I think dr. Esselstyn and dr. McDougall may have a thing or two to say about that
Don’t the studies he refers to not show olive oil lowering cholesterol, but that it just raises it less than animal fat? Does anyone know which study he’s referring to? EDIT: The studies I have seen compare a group consuming only olive oil with a group consuming animal fat and then show that the olive oil group exhibits lower cholesterol levels. They don't seem to compare it to a person avoiding refiled oils. If anyone knows what study he refers to when he says that olive oil actually lowers cholesterol, I would love to read it.
you're so right. i knew something was off with his praising of oils. very dangerous message to send the general population watching this video. he even says if you'r e healthy "A LOT of olive oil can be good for you" that is patently false and dangerous information.
Pickleball is actually very challenging and gets my heart rate up. Try it and you'll see. Play three games back to back (about one hour), and you'll be exhausted.
exactly! why was he ragging on pickleball? he gave horrible convoluted not beneficial to the general population of listeners. i hope they do not have him on again.
Switch to a whole foods, plant-based diet (which means don't eat anything with a mother or a face). Read "PREVENT AND REVERSE HEART DISEASE" by Caldwell Esselstyn Jr, MD. Wonderful information and lots of recipes to get you started.
Ugh I only sleep 5 hours. No day time sleepiness though. I'm on raw lifestyle.. but getting parasites out of my body. I was at one point only sleeping 1 to 2 hours.. the more parasites I get out the longer I sleep.
@@k.h.6991 - No. All grains by nature contain gluten, which is a known inflammatory to the human immune system. Grains should be avoided, and only eaten as an occasional treat.
thank you you are so so right but they dont talk about that or speak on that its a lot of fraud oils out there and its because of money money makes a lot of things fraud
Are there reputable studies showing the predominance of evidence of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats to be unsafe? Don't think there are. I thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Williams. I find him far more based on science than some others where it's more religion.
@@nancyd7441 Doesn't mean it's accurate. The predominance of the evidence is where reputable doctors and scientists base their knowledge on. And that's clear here.
Excellent interview. I thoroughly enjoyed a more reputable science based approach to nutrition by Dr. Williams. I find some guests cloud their information with personal opinion and cherry picking of research.
If it has 0.5 grams or less per serving, then it is legal for the labels to say 0g per serving. However, to be safe, if the ingredient list includes hydrogenated something or other, just run like hell.
Need a good cardiologist and there are none near me. All they want to do for Afib is get inside you and prescribe dangerous meds. Wish dr Williams and dr Reddy were near me. It’s frightening.
I think maybe the olive oil companies are getting desperate cause oil has gone out of favor and veganism is better for us than the Mediterranean diet so they have to think of new ways to promote their product.
I hate the push for plant based diets, it’s such a turn off! I was plant based for over 2 years and it wrecked my health. I ended up getting metabolic issues, gut dysbiosis and autoimmune issues. It’s all about balance and what works for you!
How can a plant based diet wreck your health? It cures autoimmune issues.There are many causes of dysbiosis but whole food plant based is not one of them.This video is about heart health,animal products are not on the list of beneficial remedies for the heart patients
@@bamafan1411 Apparently some people don’t realize how things work. 😂 You can go and find videos on carnivore, keto, Mediterranean etc.. where you’ll find thousands agreeing with those diets too!
Here’s another recommendation for heart health: avoid myocarditis and pericarditis by passing on the COVID-19 MRNA vaccines, especially if you’re under 50 year old.
I am plant based ... going to change back after 3 years my cholesterol is way out of control. My health had gotten worse in so many ways. The weight loss was good. But, I didn't start it for Weight loss I started for high cholesterol and now My cholesterol is way high. Not gor everyone. I wish they would say this.
@@hermitonthelake science is constantly changing. You should look into recent scientific breakthroughs about fiber and the micro biome. There is no reason to put a shot of olive oil, or any other oil in your coffee. Eat the rainbow and you will get everything you need. And you won’t even have to do time restricted eating. Avoid animal products, processed food, coconut and palm oil, limit your salt and sugar and that’s how to be healthy and reverse disease. But everyone’s looking for the magic bullet.
