Sprouts over Stents: Fix Heart Disease via Vegan Diet with “America’s Healthy Heart Doc” Dr. Joel Kahn and Learn The Secret to a Lasting and Loving Relationship

He’s known as “America’s Healthy Heart Doc”, and has treated thousands of heart attacks in his over 30 year career as a cardiologist.

Dr. Joel Kahn has triple board certification in internal medicine, cardiovascular medicine, and interventional cardiology.

He’s also a clinical professor of medicine at Wayne State University School of Medicine. On top of that, he has authored five books, including Your Whole Heart Solution and The Plant-Based Solution, as well as complex articles on health. He appears regularly on Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz, Larry King Live, and the Joe Rogan Experience.
