Esselstyns approach is to create good health in your arteries on plant based low fat diet. He came to his conclusions on a foods effect on arteries using the BART test (Brachial Artery return test?) this is his way of measuring arterial dialation. I have heard of this blood flow test used here and there in various studies of foods affect on artery dialation. Big question, has anyone started a good database on this so people with compromised arteries can know what to eat/avoid? It seems if this was a good indicator it should be put together as a reference. This is my weasely attempt to reintroduce almonds and walnuts in my diet as anti-inflammatory agents (that taste good)
