Vegan for 30 Years. Two Arteries 100% Blocked.

The video serves as a cautionary tale from Jeff Nelson (of the VegSource channel). He tells the story of a friend who had been a lifelong vegan but still suffered a heart attack in his 50s (with two arteries 100% blocked). The reason was that this person regularly consumed a "rich vegan diet" (high in oil, fried foods, and processed vegan foods) and complacently ignored his family's genetic history. The core message of the video is: merely having the "vegan" label does not automatically protect you from heart disease, unless you adopt a whole-food, low-fat plant-based diet with no added oils.
