[First, Dr. McDougall's introduction of Dr. Greger.  Captions of Dr. Greger's talk start shortly.]

We have what I consider the McDougall team, which is a group of associates,

actually friends that I've  had for 20, 30 years.

is one of those men who's worked with us, worked in conjunction

with the things that we've done, supported each other, had similar crowds.

And one thing really distinct about our next presenter is his ability to communicate.

I understand—I was just shocked that he's given over a thousand lectures,

and sometimes he's given four lectures a day— amazing, what a dedicated person.

So he also finally came out with his first book.

and it has put him on the New York Times Best Selling list for the last seven weeks.

So because of our long-time friendship and my great respect for him,

he's been a speaker for at least one presentation every year

and I know you're going to enjoy Dr. Michael Greger.

The Role of Diet in Preventing, Arresting, and Reversing Our Top 15 Killers"

I have taken so many great ideas from Dr. John McDougall

that it's only fair that he take my beard.

right around the time that my grandma was diagnosed with end-stage heart disease

She had already had so  many bypass operations—

basically run out of plumbing at some point—

confined to a wheelchair, crushing chest pain.

But then she heard about this guy, Nathan Pritikin,

one of our early lifestyle medicine pioneers.

And what happened next is chronicled in Pritikin's biography.

My grandma was one of the "death's door" people.

Frances Greger arrived in one  of Pritikin's early sessions

"Mrs. Greger had heart disease, angina, claudication;

her condition was so bad she could no longer walk

without great pain in her chest and legs.

Within three weeks though, she was not only out of her wheelchair

This is my grandma at her grandson's wedding

15 years after she was given her medical death sentence,

and thanks to a healthy diet, she was able to live another 31 years

on this earth until 96, to enjoy her six grandkids, including me.

When Dr. Ornish published his Lifestyle Heart trial years later,

that coronary heart disease could be reversed—

arteries opened up without drugs, without surgery, just a plant-based diet

and other healthy lifestyle changes, I assumed it was going to be the game changer.

I mean, my family had seen it with their own eyes,

in some of the most prestigious medical journals on the planet.

But nothing happened, leaving me to wonder if effectively

the cure to our number 1 killer could get lost down some rabbit hole and ignored,

what else was there in the medical literature that could help my patients?

I've made it my life's mission to find out.

For those of you unfamiliar with my work, every year I read through every issue

of every English-language nutrition journal in the world,

I then compile all the most interesting, the most groundbreaking,

new videos and articles I upload every day to my nonprofit site, NutritionFacts.org.

There are no ads, no corporate sponsorships.

It's strictly noncommercial, not selling anything.

Just put it up as a public service, as a labor of love.

New videos and articles every day on the latest in evidence-based nutrition.

Where did Pritikin get his evidence from?

Well, a network of missionary hospitals set up throughout Sub-Saharan Africa

uncovered what may be the most important advance in health, according to

one of the most famous medical figures of the 20th century, Dr. Denis Burkitt.

The fact that many of our most common and major Western diseases

were universally rare, like heart disease.

coronary heart disease is almost non-existent."

Our number 1 cause of death almost nonexistent?

They were eating a lot of starchy vegetables, starchy grains, and greens,

and their protein almost  exclusively from plant sources,

and they had the cholesterol levels to prove it.

Actually very similar to what You see down here in the corner

of those eating modern-day plant-based diets.

Maybe the Africans were just dying early from some other kind of disease,

never lived long enough to get heart disease.

Here's age-matched heart attack rates in Uganda versus St. Louis.

Out of 632 autopsies in Uganda, only one myocardial infarction.

Out of 632 age and gender matched autopsies in Missouri, 136 myocardial infarctions:

more than 100 times the rate of our #1 killer.

They were so blown away they went back, did another 800 autopsies in Uganda,

and still just that one small healed infarct, meaning it wasn't even the cause of death,

out of 1,427 patients—less than 1 in a thousand—

whereas here heart disease is an epidemic.

This is a list of diseases commonly found here in places
