    I think we've seen that single patient's angiogram just about enough. It gets run up the flag pole every time someone is talking about "reversal".
    Yet it is a highly unusual example. Misleading to so many with 70% to 90% mature blockages that can't really expect any degree of visible reversal.
    Highly unusual for anyone over age 60 to have significant reversal of the actual physical blockage… Say going from 85% down to a 75% blockage.
    No study shows that happening to fibrous or calcified mature plaques. Which make up the narrowings of most people over age 60 and 70.
    That doesn't mean there can't be forms of reversal such as fewer episodes of angina etc.
    I just think its misleading to keep showing these large reductions in plaque which are rare and nearly absent in older patients.
    I follow the plant based diet to halt further progression of such narrowings, but don't make believe I'm going to get that visable reduction we see in that overused angiogram involving that one patient.
    BTW, that man, a physician in his 40's, was not part of any study.
    We fellow CAD patients can live and prosper with reality. We don't need cherry-picked angiograms of unique situations.

    What an exceptional doctor and an exceptional teacher is our beloved Dr. Akil Taher. He is incredibly forthcoming with the actions he took in his younger life that led to his unhealthy outcomes and enchantingly so in his sharing of his health recovery journey. May Dr. Taher remain in pristine health for decades! Thank you for this wonderful interview, Chef AJ! Namaste. 🙏

    What a wonderful gentleman. I love this uncle. He has fantastic 'bed manners' so many doctors are luck of. I am a serious heart patient and new to the Plant Base Diet and you should all listen to this man. Thank you chef AJ for bringing the new uncle to the show. 🥰

    Thank you A.J. & Dr. Taher. Really enjoyed your interview. I've fallen off the wagon for the last 6/7 months and I've begun to feel awful again so struggling to climb back on. I'll get there. Stay safe and see you next time. Regards from France
