Reversing Heart Disease with Plants – A Powerful Transformation Story (Ft. Lauren Bernick)
"What if you could actually reverse chronic disease—not just manage symptoms? Today’s guest proved it’s possible."
I’m your host Diane Randall, and in this eye-opening episode of Plant-Based Curious, I sit down with Lauren Bernick, a health advocate who completely transformed her heart health through plant-based nutrition after receiving a terrifying diagnosis in her 40s.
Here’s what you’ll discover:
❤️ The shocking moment her cardiologist said statins for life were her only option—and why she refused to accept that prognosis
🌱 The exact nutritional approach that helped reverse her coronary artery disease (without medication!)
💪 7 powerful mindset shifts about aging—from redefining self-care to becoming your own health advocate
🍎 Simple food swaps that made plant-based healing practical and sustainable
⚡ The unexpected benefits she experienced—from effortless weight loss to renewed energy.
What moved me most was hearing how:
• Our medical system often fails to offer real solutions
• Food can be either poison or medicine—and we get to choose
• True healing requires both science and self-trust
This conversation is perfect for anyone who:
• Has ever felt dismissed by their doctor
• Wants proof that lifestyle changes can reverse disease
• Is curious about plant-based healing but needs a real-life example
