Do you believe in the concept that food is medicine?

Explanation:

Research shows that dietary habits influence disease risk. While certain foods may trigger chronic health conditions, others offer strong medicinal and protective qualities. Thus, many people argue that food is medicine. Yet, diet alone cannot and should not replace medicine in all circumstances. Do you look at food as if it can be medicine for your disease? If yes would you like more information on this, save the PDF for further conversation with your HCP.

7

When managing a chronic condition like heart disease, healthy foods like fruits and vegetables can help manage health factors that can influence change in your overall condition and health.

Explanation:

Many vegetables and fruit are particularly rich in vitamin C and in beta-carotene, which is a form of vitamin A. These work as antioxidants in your body, helping to slow down or prevent atherosclerosis by reducing the buildup of plaque from cholesterol and other substances in the arteries.

    Action Plan
    A Cardiologist as capable as Robert Welsh. In other words a Cardiologist who was prepared to keep up with recent research in the field. With respect to low resting rate Dr. Welsh had remained cognizant of the most recent research in the cardiology field and was able to refer the patient to that research which also related to a personal experience of the patient in a university physiology lab in which the patient had been a test subject for the benefit of the other physed and medical students in the lab.
