For Hypertension Awareness Month, we are fortunate to have Dr. Robert Ostfeld, a cardiologist at Montefiore Medical Center, join us to talk about lifestyle approaches for treating – and preventing – high blood pressure. In this episode, Dr. Ostfeld explains the numbers, the symptoms – or lack of symptoms – and the associated risks. A self-confessed “reformed cardiologist,” he talks about how he saw his patients who adopted a plant-based diet significantly lower their blood pressure. Not ready to go totally plant-based? Dr. Ostfeld says simply adding more fruits, vegetables and whole grains to your diet can help lower not only your blood pressure but also your risk for heart disease, stroke and dozens of other conditions.   The Takeaway We want to hear from you!

There can be a big difference in the levels for the same food depending on whether it is grilled, boiled, microwaved, or eaten raw.   Dr. Kahleova joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast with details and insight the foods that fight aging, reduce hot flashes, and improve your health.   Chuck also revisits a conversation with Ann Friday who once felt like a prisoner in her heavily layered police uniform when severe hot flashes would strike.

Much of our dietary evidence comes from non-randomized epidemiologic data. In this episode, Robert Ostfeld, MD, MSc, FACC, and Walter Willett, MD, DrPH, discuss why findings from prospective, epidemiologic cohort studies are important in informing dietary recommendations, and what dietary principles are healthful across multiple populations, including the following key takeaways: Personal and planetary health are equally important for our own well-being and for that of future generations; a healthy, predominantly plant-based diet can achieve both of these goals. Although sustainable diets are necessary for planetary health, they are not sufficient; improvements in agricultural production, reduction in food waste, and rapid conversion to green energy are all needed.

We're calling this episode, “Miracle at Montefiore" in honor of the herculean work Dr. Robert Ostfeld is doing at this Bronx hospital to move the needle on the life-saving benefits of a plant-based diet, especially for cardiac patients. Inspired by the legacy of his two young brothers who lost their lives to incurable diseases, Ostfeld attended medical school at Yale and went on to get his Masters of Science in Epidemiology at Harvard. Today, he's a plantstrong non-invasive cardiologist and Director and Founder of Preventive Cardiology at Montefiore. Knowing that whole food, plant-based nutrition really is the most powerful form of medicine, Dr. Ostfeld was instrumental in getting Montefiore to start offering plant-based meals for people recovering from heart procedures. The documentary, Forks over Knives, is also made available for viewing to any and all patients thanks to his efforts Dr. Ostfeld also discusses his upcoming research studies on the parallels between lifestyle and erectile dysfunction and why erectile dysfunction is often “the canary in the coalmine” and a surprising predictor for heart disease. As he says, his work at Montefiore is “a labor of love wrapped in a pit bull,” but with doctors like Dr. Ostfeld on the front lines, we are optimistic that real change can and will happen in our healthcare system.

I'm so glad I'm able to bring you Dr. Ostfeld. I would say in the lifespan of this podcast, I worked the hardest to book this interview. But that's not a negative…it paid off and provided a really good conversation. Dr. Robert Ostfeld is a cardiologist who works at Montefiore Health System in the Bronx in New York City. After reading the China Study and learning of the work of his colleague Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, He saw a need to create a similar cardiac wellness center in NYC where there was a larger population and a greater need for a system like this to exist. He created The Cardiac Wellness Program at Montefiore. They bring a unique, nutrition-centered approach to the management of cardiovascular disease. The program aims to prevent and reverse heart disease with a whole food/plant-based diet. Dr. Ostfeld and his Dietician and co-founder Lauren Graf work with patients to embrace a diet that includes no animal products and consists of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, beans, legumes, a small amount of nuts and avocado, as well as dairy alternatives. In Our conversation, because there's so much nutritional controversy about what we should and should not eat, we speak about whether we really know the cause of heart disease, which is the #1 cause of mortality in this country. Additionally, Dr. Ostfeld's position on blood cholesterol, Cardiovascular disease myths and regression of atherosclerotic plaques. He also addresses an existing list of top 10 foods to keep your arteries clean and tells us what does the science say about these specific food or food groups. Friendly reminder, I post lots of additional content on my Plant-Based Cyclist Facebook page and we also have regular Facebook Life sessions every other Tuesday at 9AM which you are invited to attend. We speak about how to become healthier I answer any questions you have about wellness, diet and lifestyle changes and always bring a few lessons with me to teach to the group.
