Rip Esselstyn, author of “The Engine 2 Diet” and son of Dr. Caldwell Esseslstyn, author, researcher and well known physician who appears in the documentary says, “My father’s ground-breaking work in helping critically ill patients reverse heart disease over the last twenty-five years provided the inspiration for my own choice to adopt and advocate for a PlantStrong diet. It is with great pride that I can now witness his decades of research and findings shared with the world in Forks Over Knives. I’m honored to have played a small part in the film, and to be able to work with Whole Foods Market in putting together screening events for our team members and customers.”
