As far as i know, a predominantly whole food plant based diet is still the healthiest way to reduce Cholesterol. I think there is no incidence of heart attack where the cause is due to eating tofu, green vege or fruit. But there are plenty of evidence that suggest the artery clogging greasy plague is caused by consuming too much processed food with trans fatty acid (eg : cookies!! ) , junk food , fast food ,ice cream, fat from animal products (excluding fish/fish oil) , deep fried food(trans fatty acid again) and etc.


The proof is in the Spec scan ( Vegetarian Vs Atkin on heart disease)


I used a whole food plant based vegan diet to reverse my gum disease & mild chest pain which i believe is due to the same cause - Poor diet . I strongly believe you can do it too without relying on prescription drug that kills 100000 + a year in US alone.
