Maria,
the Diet is very simple: all you can eat, as long it is plant based food, except: avocatos, nuts, olive oil. You can have more details looking for the site of Dr. Esselstyn that with Dr. Pinckney from this forum are the ones that I follow. See Dr Esselstyn site: http://www.heartattackproof.com/. You may want to read his book and the online book of Dr Pinckney.

I reduced a lot my cholesterol, blood pressure, head pain due to sinus, weight, got better digestion, etc. just following the diet.

As each person is different it is always a good idea to consult a dietitian before getting into this wonderful world of plant based food and Very Low Fat (VLF). Check also with you M.D.

If you read old posts you will find interesting ideas.
