Anne Ornish has more than twenty-five years of advanced training in yoga and meditation and was featured on the cover of Yoga Journal.
Dean Ornish, M.D., has directed revolutionary research proving, for the first time, that lifestyle changes can often reverse—undo!—the progression of many of the most common and costly chronic diseases and even begin reversing aging at a cellular level.
Medicare and many insurance companies now cover Dr. Ornish’s lifestyle medicine program for reversing chronic disease because it consistently achieves bigger changes in lifestyle, better clinical outcomes, larger cost savings, and greater adherence than have ever been reported—based on forty years of research published in the leading peer-reviewed medical and scientific journals.
Now, in this landmark book, he and Anne Ornish present a simple yet powerful new unifying theory explaining why these same lifestyle changes can reverse so many different chronic diseases and how quickly these benefits occur. They describe what it is, why it works, and how you can do it:
• Eat well: a whole foods, plant-based diet naturally low in fat and sugar and high in flavor. The “Ornish diet” has been rated “#1 for Heart Health” by U.S. News & World Report every year from 2011 to 2017.
• Move more: moderate exercise such as walking
• Stress less: including meditation and gentle yoga practices
• Love more: how love and intimacy transform loneliness into healing
With seventy recipes, easy-to-follow meal plans, tips for stocking your kitchen and eating out, recommended exercises, stress-reduction advice, and inspiring patient stories of life-transforming benefits—for example, several people improved so much after only nine weeks they were able to avoid a heart transplant—Undo It! empowers readers with new hope and new choices.
Praise for Undo It!
“The Ornishes’ work is elegant and simple and deserving of a Nobel Prize, since it can change the world!”—Richard Carmona, M.D., MPH, FACS, seventeenth Surgeon General of the United States

“This is one of the most important books on health ever written.”—John Mackey, CEO, Whole Foods Market
Amazing~The Best of Dr Ornish's work After owning, using, and enjoying most of Dr Ornish's books, I truly believe this one is his best. I've read through and the recipes appear very doable and delicious. His material is substantiated with special and extraordinary scientific studies. However I'm finding his 2 week starting plan where you can use frozen food dinners etc. to be especially helpful. Since I'm a heart patient, I believe this book will be my next guide to better health. I'll update this offering after I've begun this helpful guide to better a refreshing lifestyle.The programs Food converage plays a minor role in this book There's a few new bits, like the additional studies he's done in other areas of chronic disease using his integrated system. The focus was very heavy on the personal side of his program, and frankly you are assumed to know what the food looks like from his prior books and therefore he doesn't go much into it. He however, does tell you about the latest research on how a plant based diet works in many areas of your health and life. Frankly, I was hoping for a lot less Woo and even more science. And that was my disappointment. He also has swung away from the Spectrum concept and tries to convince you that even one higher fat meal will hurt you. It did surprise me that he continues to claim that no other diet has been proven to reverse heart disease. This just isn't true, and considering how much research he does into this area he must know it isn't true. We have the 2005 study done by a major medical university in Israel that studied heart disease reversal using three diets. The first was low fat (really 30%) the 2nd was the Med diet, and the 3rd was a low carb diet of all things. All three showed reversal of heart disease. And yes, there was weight loss in all three groups. However, the correlation with reversal didn't come from weight loss. In other words those who lost the most weight didn't have the most reversal. The researchers DID find a direct correlation of one single factor when it came to reversal of heart disease, and that was with Systolic blood pressure. The more systolic blood pressure fell the greater was the reversal. Thanks to these researchers we now know the mechanism for heart disease reversal. How is it that all three diets saw drops in Systolic blood pressure and therefore reversal? That's fairly simple. What all three diets had in common was elimination of processed food, and therefore the 80% of salt that the average person eats. It was salt restriction that led to the drop in blood pressure and therefore the reversal of disease. It was interesting that it wasn't animal products, or for that matter fat regardless of saturated or otherwise. Does this make sense? Well, way back in the 30's, 40's and 50'l a guy by the name of Walter Kempner reversed kidney disease, deadly high blood pressure and heart failure by restricting sodium to under 60 mg a day. He diet was white rice, fruit and almost a thousand calories of white sugar. Once he retired those that took over became less restrictive on other vegetable, some meat and fish, BUT they maintained the low sodium aspect of the diet. It still worked using 500 mg of sodium a day. They had the same success. We then had the Inter-salt study. The handful of societies that consumed under 1,200 mg of sodium a day had no high blood pressure, no heart disease, no kidney disease and no type 2. IT'S THE SALT. Is his program a good one? Sure. Plant based is good, but plant exclusive (vegan) is not absolutely necessary. He never gets around to explaining how the Blue Zones folks in various parts of the world live to be one hundred without being vegan, or for that matter low fat. The fat consumed ranges anywhere from fifteen percent to forty percent depending on which Blue Zone area you consider. And of course almost all of them are omnivore.A great overall book for best health I've been following the Whole Foods, Plant Based lifestyle doctors for a few months now. I ran across a podcast of Dr. and Mrs. Ornish recently and loved what I heard. This prompted me to buy the book. I have to say now that the WFPB lifestyle has been tremendous in reversing and healing issues I've had for years.The book is packed with great information on eating, moving, de-stressing, and loving. Plain and simple advice for living a healthy life. Lots of great recipes, too. There is a lot of scientific information and studies presented that really backs up this lifestyle.The only issue I have is that the book continuously promotes their program. This would be a bad thing, but there are no venues anywhere close to where I live (mid-north Tennessee). Insurance may cover their program, but I doubt my insurance will pay for me to travel somewhere distant to take it. With it promoting the benefits of the program, I feel I am missing out; that I'm only getting partial information since I can't participate in the program. Especially with the group benefits. And, there wasn't any contact information on their site for those of us wanting to ask questions about it; only for booking.While I love the book, I think I would prefer less promoting of the program and keep the book to what you can do from the book.
