Guest guest Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 Please forgive me if I'm in the wrong group to ask this question but this is the only one I've found about " lacto-ovo-vegetarianism " . My husband started the Dr. Dean Ornish's Program for Reversing Heart Disease ( webmd.com/content/pages/9/3068_9408.htm ) 2 months ago [he eats egg whites and fat free skim milk products] and has found that eating only about 10% fat (from full-fat soy milk or tofu etc.), 15% protein and about 65-75% complex-carbo's; his resting BP has gone down 15-20 points each side (systolic/diastolic) and his resting heart rate has gone down to between 60-65 at night. He has a new energy (I guess since he is not taking in any fats). Now my question is: Has anyone else found this to be true (BP and HR) on a similar food intake of this kind or should we be concerned about the Heart Rate? thank you sally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
