Dietary Protocols to Maximize Disease Reversal and Long-Term Safety

Will your doctor finally use this as a basis for a stroke diet? In-hospital and out? Because somebody else did the work s/he seemed to be too lazy to do?
You can read this to see if you trust Dr. Fuhrman.

Abstract

This article covers some important concepts and controversies in modern nutritional science. It describes a diet style designed to maximize health, longevity, and disease reversal—foundationally structured on the quality and comprehensive adequacy of nutrients rather than the balance of macronutrients, as is more popular today. I call such a diet, which attempts to optimize micronutrients, a nutritarian diet. I will review a small case series demonstrating typical results in diabetics and some of my clinical observations over the last 25 years treating people with a nutritarian diet, which could be either vegan or flexitarian. I will also discuss health concerns observed from an unsupplemented vegan diet, specifically the risk of depression and later life dementia in individuals with enhanced need for long-chain omega-3 fatty acids.
