Dr. Baxter Montgomery's Cause of Death Revealed — And His Legacy of Hope

For the first time publicly, the cause of death of renowned plant-based cardiologist Dr. Baxter Montgomery is revealed.

In this powerful and respectful conversation, Jackie Williams shares that Dr. Montgomery battled two rare blood disorders: multiple myeloma and AL amyloidosis.

What are these diseases?
Could diet have caused them?
Can lifestyle medicine reverse everything?

🧠 In this episode:
• What multiple myeloma and AL amyloidosis are
• Who is most affected
• Why his diet did not cause his illness
• The limits — and power — of nutrition
• The legacy he leaves behind

The discussion begins with Jackie who shares her personal journey from grief and declining health to vibrant whole-food, plant-based living.

After years helping build Montgomery Heart & Wellness and supporting thousands of patients, Jackie is now seeking her next opportunity within the plant-based and lifestyle medicine community. If you're looking for experience in patient support, community building, events, or plant-based education, she is open to continuing this work.

We discuss Dr. Montgomery's cause of death beginning at 26:38
