The Ornish Reversal Plan
The Ornish Reversal Plan, also called the Ornish diet, claims to relieve or “reverse” symptoms of chronic illness. Dr. Dean Ornish, a researcher and founder of the Preventive Medicine Research Institute, created the program to slow down inflammation and disease progression.
Despite the diet’s popularity, many experts have refuted Dr. Ornish’s claims. For instance, the diet recommends consuming more carbohydrates–which Americans already over-consume. If left unmonitored, dieters could eat too little protein and fat, and they could experience dangerous nutrition deficits.
