Dr. Dean Ornish is considered the father of lifestyle medicine, pioneering programs that can reverse life-threatening illness with a combination of a plant-based diet, moderate exercise, meditation and therapy.

How Simple Lifestyle Changes Can Reverse Most Chronic Diseases," which he coauthored with his wife Anne.
