esselston's claims so i dug up some of these peer review journals.y are small, just a handful of patients but the results are pretty impressive. in one study, patients on the diet had no heart attacks or any coronary events of any sort after five years an three-quarters of these patients actually saw their blockages get smaller. you're not talking about just reducing your chance of heart disease. you're talking about potentially reversing heart disease. >> oh, absolutely. >> the lay wisdom is that once you develop these plaques, they're there, you're stuck with them. try not to let them get worse. is that faulty thinking? >> i think it's absolutely faulty thinking. >> here's a picture esselston likes to show of a heart patient with a blocked coronary artery, and here's that same patient after going on a plant-based diet. you see the way the blockage has almost disappeared? sharon survived a heart attack a year ago after a coronary artery became completely block. now she's counting on the esselston diet to keep her from having another. >> thankfully y
