Dr. Dean Ornish is the first doctor to prove that heart disease can be
reversed through diet and exercise. His low-fat, high-fiber eating plan has

"When you manage stress better, when you exercise, when you eat better, your quality of life improves," he says. He suggests meditation as a way to reduce stress, adding that patients who meditate show improved medical tests.
