Does anyone have experience following Caldwell Esselytyn, Dean Ornish, John McDougall

[Alden Cornell]

I’m looking for a healthy vegetarian diet that remains palatable over time. Caldwell Esselytyn, Dean Ornish, John McDougall, and Joel Fuhrman diets all look promising, at least in health terms. Has anyone had experience actually staying on any of these vegetarian diets for more than a year, or opinions about the palatability? Thanks.

Welcome to DC, Alden!

A friend who had a heart attack was put on the Ornish diet, and found it somewhat difficult to follow. It continues to be very highly recommended, however.
