Scientifically Proven To Reverse the Progression of Heart Disease

Dr. Ornish and his colleagues were able to prove—for the first time—that comprehensive lifestyle changes can actually reverse the progression of even severe coronary heart disease.

Dr. Ornish’s Program for Reversing Heart Disease® remains the only program scientifically proven to reverse heart disease in randomized controlled trials published in the leading peer-reviewed journals. They used the latest high-tech state-of-the-art scientific technology to prove the power of simple lifestyle changes: eat well, stress less, move more, love more.

Hours of new life

The Ornish Reversal Program (ICR) is offered by a team of dedicated, caring, compassionate, and highly competent health care professionals who work directly with participants to provide not only the information but also the support needed to make and maintain lasting changes in lifestyle. These include a physician, nurse, exercise physiologist, registered dietitian, stress management specialist and group support facilitator.

Almost 90% of the people who enroll in this 9-week program are still following it one year later. In contrast, only 30-50% of people prescribed cholesterol-lowering drugs are still taking them after only six months.

Why? Because most people feel so much better, so quickly, it reframes the reason for making these

The Proven Lifestyle

When we become more aware of how powerfully our choices in diet and lifestyle affect us—for better and for worse—then we can make different ones.
When you make healthy choices, you feel better quickly. This allows us to connect the dots between what we do and how we feel. Feeling so much better, so quickly, re-frames the reason for changing from fear of dying to joy of living.

Health Benefits of the Ornish Reversal Program (ICR)

Angina (chest pain) was reduced by over 90% and blood flow to the heart improved significantly in just three weeks.

After one year, coronary arteries became significantly less clogged, and there was even more improvement after five years.

As a participant in the Ornish Reversal Program (ICR), you are likely to:

1) Reduce your risk of a heart-related event

2) Decrease your chest pain (angina)

3) Lower your chances of needing future surgery

4) Lessen your dependence on medications

5) Lower your cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar and lose weight

6) Increase the amount of exercise you can do and make it more enjoyable

7) Manage stress more effectively

8) Become a part of an emotionally supportive and encouraging community

Improve your quality of life

Other Improved Health Conditions

In addition to heart disease, the Ornish Reversal Program has been proven to reverse type 2 diabetes and may slow, stop, or even reverse the progression of early-stage prostate cancer.

Most people who were told that they would need to take drugs for the rest of their lives to lower their cholesterol levels, blood pressure, or blood sugar have been able to reduce or even discontinue these under their doctor’s supervision.

Changing your lifestyle also changes your genes—turning on (up-regulating) protective genes that help keep us healthy, and turning off (down-regulating) genes that cause oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, and the genes that promote prostate cancer, breast cancer, and colon cancer—over 500 genes in only three months. Our genes are a predisposition, but our genes are not our fate.

In collaboration with Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn, who received the Nobel Prize in Medicine for her pioneering work with telomeres and telomerase, Dr. Ornish and his colleagues found that these lifestyle changes lengthened telomeres, the ends of our chromosomes that regulate longevity—in a real sense, beginning to reverse aging at a cellular level.
