The Ornish Nutrition Element

I referred Dr. Ornish in my book* and also shared his interview with Dr. Sanjay Gupta (of CNN) a couple months ago. I hope you all watched it if not please look for it on my blog or in my book.

I agree with all his points, especially when he said “What you include is as important as what you exclude” During my research I found various cases where people excluded some meals in their diet but forgot or did not understand the importance of adding nutritious foods to their diets.

Ornish Lifestyle Medicine™ Dietary Guidelines

“Foods are neither good nor bad, but some are more healthful for you than others — predominantly fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, soy products, nonfat dairy, and egg whites in their natural forms, as well as some good fats that contain omega 3 fatty acids. These are the foods that are rich in good carbs, good fats, good proteins and other protective substances. There are at least 100,000 substances in these foods that have powerful anti cancer, anti-heart-disease and anti-aging properties. What you include is as important as what you exclude.”
