HOST: Hallo, blessed viewers, and welcome to Healthy Living on Supreme 
Master Television. On this week’s program we’ll explore how the vegan 
lifestyle can prevent and cure cardiovascular ailments and other chronic
 conditions.
Cardiovascular disease is known as a 『lifestyle』 
disease because it is preventable. Its primary causes are smoking, lack 
of exercise and most importantly unhealthy dietary choices.  
According
 to the World Health Organization, each year an estimated 16.7 million 
or 29.2% of all deaths are caused by this disease.
Today we’ll 
meet Dr. Marc Katz, a vegan cardiothoracic surgeon and medical director 
of Bon Secours Heart & Vascular Institute in Richmond, Virginia, 
USA, who strongly believes the vegan diet is the answer to preventing 
and treating this deadly health condition and others. 
Dr. Katz 
is a leading expert in the field of robotic heart surgery, specializing 
in mitral valve repairs, heart transplants and other cardiothoracic 
procedures. 
He performed the first dual heart-kidney transplant 
in the eastern United States. At present, he is the only physician doing
 robotic heart surgery in Virginia. Now let’s hear from the 
knowledgeable Dr. Katz about one of the most common and severe health 
conditions of recent times.
