2023 Cohort“
I've had tremendous results.
“I wouldn’t have been able to do it if it hadn’t been a virtual program from the comfort of my home. The first thing I noticed was that my blood pressure stabilized. For years I had a lot of pressure in my chest (angina), and yet ever since 3 or 4 weeks of starting the program, it has been completely alleviated; that was a huge thing!”

“
The results were beyond my wildest imagination.
“I’ve seen a reduction in my A1c, so I’m no longer diabetic. I’ve also seen a reduction in my blood pressure and asthma, and I eliminated my acid reflux and COPD. I even lost close to 30 pounds!”

2023 Cohort“
You get a whole new perspective on life once you’re given a second chance like I have.
“I’ve lost over 30 pounds; I feel great! I don’t have angina or the constant fear of having a cardiac event anymore. My whole life has changed for the better and I’m going to keep it that way.”

Preventive Medicine Research Institute
Dean Ornish, M.D. and his colleagues at the non-profit Preventive Medicine Research Institute in collaboration with the University of California, San Francisco and other leading academic institutions, have conducted a series of research studies showing that comprehensive changes in diet and lifestyle can often reverse the progression of many of the most common and costly chronic diseases, including coronary heart disease.
