About
In 2011, Vince was diagnosed with high cholesterol and high blood pressure, and his doctor gave him a prescription for cholesterol lowering statins. But after seeing family members go on meds and still dying of heart disease, he decided to change his diet, and he switched to plant-based nutrition. In just 6 weeks, his cholesterol dropped from 240 down to 132. His blood pressure dropped 30 points and he lost 20 pounds! Vince created a 5-day weight loss challenge called, The Redline Challenge. Over 19,000 people have been through the Redline Challenge and the average weight loss is 4 pounds in 5 days, without being hungry and without exercise! It has also helped people to lower blood pressure, lower fasting glucose and reduce joint pain in just 5 days.

But for the vast majority of people, these conditions can be reversed with proper nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress management and avoidance of drugs, smoking and alcohol. This program exposes these myths of chronic disease.

Type 2 diabetes is a deadly disease that is the leading cause of blindness, leading cause of limb amputation and leading cause of chronic kidney disease. It also dramatically increases the risk of heart disease. Medications can slow the progression, but lifestyle can put it into remission. Remission is normal glucose level, with no medication, while eating potatoes and fruit. I have helped dozens of people put type 2 diabetes into remission. Unfortunately, remission is NOT the goal for must physicians treating diabetes. This program explores the lifestyle treatments that can lead to remission.
