Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn really laid it all out there in this episode. He debunked a lot of myths surrounding heart disease, heart attacks and what really causes this problem in people. Turns out it’s damage to the endothelial cells in the arteries surrounding our hearts. When we damage these endothelial cells with certain foods, we can’t create nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is what helps to eat away cholesterol that builds up in the arteries.

Turns out meat and animal products do lots of damage to these epithelial cells according to Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn.
