Ep. 125: Dr. Kim Williams - Have Heart Disease? Four Questions to Empower Your Reversal

Ep. 125: Dr. Kim Williams - Have Heart Disease? Four Questions to Empower Your Reversal

“There are two kinds of Cardiologists - those who are vegan and those who haven’t read the data.” - Dr. Kim Williams

Such a bold statement from someone, who, since 2013 has been the Head of Cardiology at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, as well as the former president of the American College of Cardiology.

Dr. Kim Williams does not mince words.

He shares:

  • His personal background and story of what (and who) inspired him to become a doctor at the young age of 11.

  • Why, as a poor kid from the Southside of Chicago, he adopted a plant-based diet many years ago.

  • How to calculate your 10-year risk of heart disease or stroke using the ASCVD

  • Resources and cookbooks from the Association of Black Cardiologists, Inc.

  • New research proving that vegan junk food is actually worse for your health than eating animals

  • The four biggest questions he asks all of his patients who have recently had stents or other surgical interventions.


These four simple magic questions often change the course and long-term outcomes of his patients when they hear the questions and provide their own answers.

Thank you, Dr. Kim Williams, for being an outspoken advocate and example of the future of Medicine. Prevention and education start with people like you and we are grateful that you heeded the call to become a doctor. You were made for Medicine.

About Dr. Kim Williams is an American cardiologist. He is a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology and served as its president from 2015 to 2016. He is currently a trustee of the organization.
