Hi, I’m Clifford — a husband, father, and someone who was unexpectedly diagnosed with heart disease at just 36 years old.
My wake-up call came after a weekend family gathering, when I experienced chest pain that led to an abnormal EKG and a series of tests that revealed multiple blockages in my heart. I was shocked and scared. I had two young children and a wife I love deeply — and suddenly my health was uncertain.
Instead of rushing into surgery, I began searching for alternative solutions. That journey led me to the late Dr. Baxter Montgomery, a world-renowned cardiologist in Houston who introduced me to the power of plant-based nutrition. Through his program, I did a raw vegan detox and experienced something I’d never seen before: my heart size returned to normal, my blood pressure dropped, my cholesterol normalized, and — for the first time — I felt like I was truly healing.
