When Death Knocked at the Door, a Wheelchair Became a Symbol of Hope

A sixty-five-year-old woman sits in a wheelchair, sent home to die from end-stage heart disease. Her doctors have given up. Then she sees a television program about plant-based nutrition and decides to try one last thing. Weeks later, she walks out of Nathan Pritikin's center on her own two feet. She lives another thirty-one vibrant years. That woman was Dr. Michael Greger's grandmother, and her story sparked a medical revolution hidden in plain sight-the science showing that what we eat determines whether we live or die. Here's the uncomfortable truth: the standard American diet scores about one out of ten for health, with only 11 percent of calories coming from whole plant foods. We're literally eating ourselves to death, one meal at a time. Yet four simple habits-not smoking, maintaining healthy weight, thirty minutes of daily exercise, and eating better-can slash diabetes risk by 90 percent, heart attacks by 80 percent, and strokes by 50 percent. The CDC found that people following just three basic behaviors reduced their mortality risk by 82 percent over six years, essentially becoming fourteen years younger biologically. The most remarkable discovery? A whole-food, plant-based diet doesn't just prevent disease-it can reverse the fifteen leading causes of death in America.
