Hello friend! I started Well Elephant because when I was diagnosed with coronary artery disease at just 46 years old, the cardiologist had nothing to offer me except pills and procedures. He told me that I had two blocked arteries and that I would have to be on a statin for the rest of my life. Nothing could be done to reverse this. I should eat a diet of skinless chicken, fish, fruits, vegetables, nuts, avocado, low-fat dairy, and olive oil. That was exactly what I was eating! I knew something wasn't right. 

I found my way to the book Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease by Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, Jr., and corresponding cookbook by Jane and Ann Esselstyn. The gist was that a low-fat, whole-food, plant-based diet without added oil had been proven to reverse heart disease. I dove in, was steadfast, and six years later I had extensive medical testing that proved that I had indeed reversed my disease. 

Now I teach others how to reverse disease, and not just heart disease, most diseases, by following a whole-food, plant-based diet without oil. You'll learn tricks and tips for sticking to this lifestyle in order to reverse disease. We will cook delicious food. My online class, ACE Plant-based Eating will show you how. I present with humor and I meet you where you are now. Don't be afraid to make a change. You don't have to be perfect, just get started.
