Bill Clinton on Veganism


Ellen was gung-ho about President Clinton's lifestyle change and I couldn't help but notice how Wolf Blitzer looks slightly puzzled or confused. Five years ago, President Clinton had quadruple bypass surgery and less than two years ago he was hospitalized with a clogged artery that required two stents. Months later he was down to his high school weight and eating a plant-based diet. I laughed when I watched the second video because it seems like Wolf was a little shocked or something about this diet.

They're both a quick watch and he drops several names in the second video that are worth Googling. I began my change with Rip Esselstyn's Engine 2 Diet, and his father, Caldwell Esselstyn, had a huge impact on the reversal of atherosclerosis in his patients with a vegan diet. Their names, among many others, have helped bring this information to light.
