A deep sense of identity is returning. I feel like I’m me again—an older but better version of me.
We have several small businesses, and I used to do all of the books for them, but then I stopped these past few years when it became too frustrating and confusing. However, this year, I could organize them all again, and I even took it a step further and reconciled all the spreadsheets. It was absolute jubilation, given it had been 4 or 5 years since I had been involved to that degree again. It's like a new lease on life.

The results were beyond my wildest imagination.
“I’ve seen a reduction in my A1c, so I’m no longer diabetic. I’ve also seen a reduction in my blood pressure and asthma, and I eliminated my acid reflux and COPD. I even lost close to 30 pounds!”

I've had tremendous results.
“I wouldn’t have been able to do it if it hadn’t been a virtual program from the comfort of my home. The first thing I noticed was that my blood pressure stabilized. For years I had a lot of pressure in my chest (angina), and yet ever since 3 or 4 weeks of starting the program, it has been completely alleviated; that was a huge thing!”

I felt like I had worth again.
I played a straight set of 8 tunes for an hour and a half parade; I could remember the order of the songs, and make the transitions from tune to tune without messing up or getting confused about what tune I was playing, which were all problems I had before which was so unpleasant I stopped playing music. Yet now, It just went like clockwork again. I’m crying because I’m so happy that I could do that again.

Preventive Medicine Research Institute
Dean Ornish, M.D., and his colleagues at the non-profit Preventive Medicine Research Institute in collaboration with Harvard Medical School, the University of California, San Francisco and other leading academic institutions, have conducted a series of research studies scientifically proven in peer-reviewed randomized trials to prevent and often even reverse the progression of many of the most common and costly chronic diseases such as heart disease. This may include significantly improving cognition and function in many patients with early-stage Alzheimer's disease.
