    Description

    In Episode 75 I sit down with Dr Caldwell Esselsytn Jnr, or 'Essy', to chat about his journey in Medicine & the specifics of the findings from his clinical trials on preventing and reversing cardiovascular disease.It was a great pleasure to join Essy at his home in Cleveland with his wife Ann - they welcomed me with open arms and a delicious lunch. I am very grateful that I was able to spend that time with them and even more grateful to have been able to record Essy's wisdom to share with you. Huge thanks to Ann - you are an absolute joy to be around and the food you prepared was incredible.Within the episode we cover:Essy's life as a kidHis involvement in the 1956 Melbourne OlympicsHis journey to MedicineWhy he became interested in cardiovascular diseaseHis clinical trials on patients with end stage cardiovascular diseaseWhat causes coronary artery diseaseHow to prevent and reverse cardiovascular disease with nutritionThe bigger picture and future of healthcare to move from a model fo disease management to disease preventionand much moreOne of the absolute pioneers of Lifestyle Medicine - clear distractions, Essy is an absolute wealth of knowledge. If you know ANYONE with cardiovascular disease (a history of stroke, palpitations, arrhythmia's, heart attacks or angina) please share this episode with them. Finally, if you have any comments or questions, Essy (@dresselsytn) and myself (@plant_proof) would love to hear from you.

    Join show host and nutritionist Simon Hill as he sits down with doctors, nutritionists, dieticians, athletes and inspiring people challenging the status quo and making positive change in the world. By breaking down the science, and listening to their stories and wisdom, together we can become more mindful and conscious of how we are living and the impact our food choices have on our health, the planet's health and all of those that we share it with. Importantly, in a world where diet has become very divisive Simon has created a safe space to talk about nutrition without judgement. Eat meat or dairy? That's perfectly fine! Contrary to the stereotypical view of vegans, Simon encourages celebration of anyone taking the time to learn more about the food they put other plate. It's not an all or nothing move. While this show is very much about bringing out the knowledge of the wonderful guests it's also good to know you are in good hands - Simon has a Bachelors degree in Physiotherapy, a Masters degree in Nutrition, is Certified in Plant Based Nutrition and is committed to bringing you agenda free information. In addition Simon is writing a book that will be published by Penguin early 2021 - with 100% of his proceeds being donated to charities selected by the Plant Proof community. To connect with Simon on socials you can find him on Instagram and Twitter @plant_proof.
