  • Hi, it's Dr Sam Robbins,

  • Today I'm going to reveal four main foods that are clinically proven in multiple clinical

  • studies, including a Harvard study1... to improve your heart health.

  • Which resulted in a decrease ofbadLDL cholesterol by 17%

  • Additional Improvements were seen in a lowering of triglycerides (which are the most

  • common fat types in the human body), blood pressure

  • and C-reactive protein (which is a marker of inflammation).

  • This was examined in both randomized and non-randomized controlled trials, so they took into account

  • multiple variables.

  • In fact, these four foods are so effective that several government organizations have

  • recognized and are utilizing the benefits of this specific diet which includes these

  • foods.

  • And the best type of diet which includes these 4 food types areplant baseddiets.

  • However, if you don't want to go 100% plant based, that's fine

  • You can still reap the benefits by simply adding in these 4 foods types into your current

  • diet.

  • The 4 Food Types For Improving Heart Health

  • NUTS Healthy fats in nuts are very healthy, and

  • I think almonds, macadamia and walnuts are best.

  • Ideally you would soak them in water for 8 hours before eating, to improve digestion

  • Plant Proteins This was from plant proteins obtained either

  • from soy-based foods such as tofu, soy milk, or other soy-based meat substitutes.

  • As you may know from previous videos, I'm not a fan of soy because it lowers thyroid

  • and testosterone, while increasing estrogens.

  • A better source of plant proteins would be from beans, peas, chickpeas or lentils.

  • Remember that you can also have these plant proteins in powder form - such as pea and

  • rice protein.

  • Fiber The study used primarily soluble fiber, such

  • as "oats, barley, psyllium, eggplant, okra, apples, oranges, and berries".

  • Plant Sterols

  • Certain foods containing plant sterols, can also help lowerbad”, LDL cholesterol.

  • These arecholesterol-likecompounds that can be found in certain fruits, vegetables,

  • nuts and cereals.

  • Unfortunately, you'll have to eat a LOT of these foods to see any positive benefits.

  • However, an easier and more effective method is to simply take supplements containing a

  • combination of BOTH Plant Sterols and Plant Stanols....

  • Which can help lower cholesterol by 10% to 14%.2

  • 3 Additional Foods

  • Numerous studies have also shown that 3 additional foods are also very beneficial.

  • Primarily when take in a supplementalextractform, which is far more concentrated and effective

  • than the food source:

  • Policosanol2 - which is a natural supplement derived from sugarcane.

  • Artichoke Leaf Extract3 - which has numerous studies going back to the early 1930's

  • Red Yeast Rice Extract5,6 - which has been safely used in China for over 2000 years

  • My Parents & Their Results

  • What's interesting is that in 1998 I used a modified version of this diet with my parents

  • to help lower their cholesterol.

  • This is because I wanted to get them off of the statin cholesterol lowering drugs, which

  • had a lot of negative side-effects

  • The results were were good, but not enough.

  • But, we needed more benefits and that's when I added in the 3 herbal supplements I

  • mentioned earlier, in addition to a couple more and then they saw a major improvement

  • in only 30 days.

  • And you can get the details of what they used and how they did it by clicking the special

  • link below, in the description area.

  • Summary

  • Plant based diets have numerous health benefits, especially for your heart.

  • However, if you don't want to go 100% plant based, that's fine.

  • Just make sure diet also contains some Nuts

  • Plant Based Proteins Fiber

  • Plant Sterols

  • Additional benefits can be seen even faster, when adding in

  • Policosanol Artichoke Leaf Extract

  • Red Yeast Rice Extract

  • And as a reminder, you can see exactly how my parent's used this same formula to lower

  • their cholesterol in just 30 days - naturally and I got them OFF of the harmful medications

  • as well.

  • So that's it for today.

  • I hope this video gave you more clarity.
