Dr Van Dyken places heavy emphasis on prevention and reversal of disease using diet and lifestyle alone. It is especially rewarding for her to see her patients do a 180-degree turn and completely restructure their lives around plant-based living. In fact, the changes
she has seen are unprecedented.
