Welcome to Heart 2 Heart: Conversations to Heal a Broken Heart with Dr. Columbus Batiste. Dr. Columbus Batiste is a board-certified Interventional Cardiologist who has been an active lifestyle and whole food plant-based advocate for over a decade. His dedication to the science of lifestyle has led him to participate in multiple research studies and review articles which have confirmed the benefit of a plant-based diet. To bring the science to his patient’s bedside, Dr. Batiste crafted a unique program in which he gave bi-monthly lectures and a monthly cooking class entitled: CATH lab. The CATH lab is a procedural room where Interventional Cardiologists bring patients to provide treatment to open vessels and stop heart attacks while they are occurring. Dr. Batiste re-purposed the Cath lab name into Cooking Alternative To Health (CATH) a series of cooking classes, that provided attendees information on how to maintain flavor and combine foods to restore blood flow and alleviate symptoms with the power of nutrition. Dr. Batiste has additionally explored the science regarding the relationship between mental health and relationships in heart disease. Dr. Batiste anticipates the release of his first book entitled SELFISH A Cure For A Stressed and Broken Heart in April 2024. In honor of Heart Awareness Month, Dr Batiste interviews Paul and Tamara Berry in this episode.
