In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast we talk to Dr. Robert Ostfeld about cholesterol, genes & Montefiore’s Cardiac Wellness Program.

If you know people who think they’re destined for a life of cardiovascular events despite their choice in lifestyle, you’re going to want to share this show with them.
