Dr. Sanjay Gupta Talks About Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy


This is the heart problem I developed back in 2009. Like many others on the Facebook Takotsubo Support community, I still have on-going problems associated with this and still have to take medications because of it.

Dr. Sanjay Gupta, the doctor who did that famous video with former President Bill Clinton about going plant-based after his heart problems, The Last Heart Attack, which included interviews with Dr. Ornish and Dr. Esselstyn, recently did this little talk (and joined the FB community, too!).



He said he'll talk more about Takotsubo in his next video, how some people continue to have on-going problems and don't recover 100% even if their echocardiograms show complete recovery, and is already talking with the owner of the community on other things he'll discuss, like exercise. Hopefully he'll also talk about the benefits of a plant based diet, too. There are dreadfully few of us in that community that are plant based, and less than a handful that have even heard of Dr. Esselstyn or Dr. Ornish!
