Bonus Podcast: Monica Aggarwal, MD — Healing Inflammation and Hearts with Plants
Update: 2025-09-26
Description
Dr. Monica Aggarwal, a practicing cardiologist and mother, experienced rheumatoid arthritis but was able to dicontinue using medications through the diet and lifestyle changes as she shares in her book Body on Fire.
She later completed a randomized study of plant-based diets—with and without olive oil—showing that both improve outcomes compared to the standard American diet.
An advocate for whole foods, she suggests choosing avocados and olives over the oils derived from them, while also recognizing supporting data for extra-virgin olive oil and avocado oil.
Check out her book and listen to our conversation on this special bonus episode of Heart Doc VIP with Dr. Joel Kahn.
