Do You Have To Be 100% Plant-based To See Benefits | Dr. Robert J. Ostfeld | Mastering Diabetes

Does your diet have to be 100% plant-based for optimal health? The answer is NO. Dr. Robert Ostfeld tells you why. Such question is probably out there because while whole food, plant-based nutrition may be nutrient dense, it's not a calorie dense diet. With that in mind, some people are concerned about feeling fatigued or tired. What usually does the trick is eating great amounts of calorie dense foods like whole grains and lentils. It's also important to see a physician for evaluation as fatigue can also be unrelated to your diet. But whatever concern you may have about going 100% percent plant-based. . . Dr. Robert recommends that you at least cross the 50% threshold. Robert J. Ostfeld, MD, MSc, FACC, is the Director of Preventive Cardiology at Montefiore Health System and a Professor of Medicine at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Dr. Ostfeld treats patients with adult cardiovascular disease, including coronary artery disease, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and erectile dysfunction with a focus on prevention and treatment through lifestyle change. He works closely with his patients to help them adopt a plant-based diet.
