As the daughter-in-law of Dr. Esselstyn, I have witnessed the results of his research and listened to his message from the start (1980’s). My husband and I have lived the plant-based life and raised our family the same. As an OBGYN I am seeing more obesity, more diabetes and more HTN in my women patients. I am more convinced than ever that plant-based nutrition is the key to better health including better pregnancies and healthier babies.
