Bill Clinton Saves Himself!!
Bill Clinton had a *stent put in during a bypass where his arteries were clogged with cholesterol. It was dangerous.
He was one of the lucky ones who can be saved by having a stent put in.
So he went on totally plant based diet to save his own life and he lost 25 pounds and it worked. Watch this informative video.
On Twitter, Bill Clinton is now a vegan.

*In medicine, a stent is an artificial ‘tube’ inserted into a natural passage/conduit in the body to prevent, or counteract, a disease-induced, localized flow constriction.

Wonderful news that more and more celebrities or famous world leaders like former president Bill Clinton turned vegan for health reasons. He realized that he was highly prone to arterial blockage, after going for minor surgery to insert stent of the blockage , he decided to for go meat and turned vegan. A good choice he made , lost 25 pounds, and he is much healthier than ever. With position of fame , he has encouraged and inspired many to be a vegan and promote exercise for better health. Eating meat cause unimaginable animal suffering, and has been linked many life threatening diseases like heart disease, high blood pressure, Cholesterol and so forth.
Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.
It has been shown clearly that animal products are the cause of many health issues. As Buddhists we see all beings as our mother and therefore we should never harm them.
We see that animals care deeply for their offspring and nurture them and teach them how to survive. There is no way that we should behave towards animals as if we are superior or have the right to encage them, to abuse them, to take their dignity and rights for our pleasure.
There are innumerable and most cruel acts that humans do against animals and we should all speak up and stop it. Please speak up and care for them.
Good on President Clinton. It’s vital to cultivate good habits when young just generally and especially for health and longevity reasons because it gets harder to keep up with the bodily shortcomings as you get older. Weight loss becomes harder and the bad eating habits just bring a lot of grief and prescriptions too!
Wow! Great to know that a plant based diet has helped him to clear the blood clog. I have heard a lot of people saying, being a vegetarian is not healthy as you can’t get proteins, being a vegetarian are just the same as killing animals(which is quite stupid) and all sorts of really crazy complains. I remembered once I was very irritated by a friend of mine. She was like, oh being a vegetarian is nothing different than eating meat cause you’re still killing the plants. So I told her off, I asked her back, have you seen vegetables walking around the streets looking for food? Or have you ever heard vegetables talking to you? Then I walked away immediately. My point is, come on man! Everyone knows that plants do not have consciousness, unlike animals. So what’s your point of arguing?
Being a vegetarian is good. And this is the proof. No meat is a good thing. It helps you to keep healthy, and slim!! He was such an important man at his time. Being the President of the United States was the biggest thing you could have become. And by him being a vegetarian, it has a huge impact on vegetarianism. Because he is known world wide. And ince people see from him, that being a vegetarian is good and healthy. A lot of people would have followed. This is god news to the world.
Bill clinton is another example that becoming vegetarian is good for the health. He lost 25 pounds. Nowadays most of disease such as heart attack is caused by the ignorance of diet. Too fat is not good for the health. Also, overweight will make people lazy.
Plant based diet has proven time and time again it is much healthier. As mentioned in other comments the meat that we eat are killed most of the time violently, the animals emotions, fear, anxiety, pain, anger all goes into the meat. How can meat be a healthy option ?
It has been proven time and time again that animals’ fat give rise to cholesterol built up in our arteries. With the life style of an average person of this 21st century where exercise is very much lacking, heart diseases are common among many of us. In this perpective alone, it is already a good enough reason to either cut down on meat consumption or go completely vegan.
On a spiritual level, if one can think deeper on the suffering the animals endure before their death, and particularly if we are buddhists, we should all the more go 100% vegetarian or be a vegan. How can we chant holy mantras from our mouth when we put dead corpses in our mouth?
Wow! I think that is extremely amazing. Even someone like Bill Clinton can sacrifice his urge to eat meat! He is an extremely good example, I really wish to be like him. Even though it is just to save his own skin at first then it became a habit for him to be vegan.
Very impressing and beautiful. I wish I could completely finish with milk, as I did with meat, fish and eggs. Love
The other thing is… if I only could be honest to my parents.
Wow! Vegan diet seems to do wonders for Mr Bill Clinton and he owes his life turnaround because of this diet. I am amazed by his results and I have been vegetarian for around a year plus and I have actually gained weight. Perhaps it is all the dairy in my diet as I love cereal with milk, ice -creams and other sweat desserts. My weight borders on being overweight for my height and so I am thinking of starting on a Herbalife diet. It is mainly soy, fortified with various vitamins and minerals and what I really like is that I loose weight and apparently improves energy levels and overall health as well and it is Vegan…so I am thinking about it….
Bill Clinton was saved by being a vegetarian when he took on the experiment of going on plant based diet. He had a bypass when Doc found he had high cholestral and heart problem. Even after the bypass a stent has to be inserted. The experiment worked. He lost 24lbs and now he is a vegetarian. I have a similar experience with the same type of condition many years ago. I had very high cholestral. Doc told me I had my 3 main arteries blocked. And had to put stents to blow up the arteries. Before the operation with the stents.I need another angiogram done. The Doc was baffled with the results which turned out that my arteries was clear and no blockage. I had consulted my Tsem Rinpoched when I found out about my arteries was blocked. I had trusted Rinpoche. Rinpoche did lots of prayers and pujas which I had trusted will work. My point is I cannot explain how this happen. But I believe and trusted Rinpoche. In this case trust and prayers work. I am also now full vegetarian.
Dear Rinpoche, thank you for posting this. Bill Clinton lost weight for Chelsea’s wedding, upon her insistence is common knowledge. But the fact that he did research and participated in the program is a lesson to us all. Do what you need to do without further delays if you have found the answers. I will forward this posting to my friends esp for one friend who recently had 2 stents done. All of us have consciously included more vegetables and fruits selections in our meals but we need to do more.
wise step – next, hopefully, Mr Clinton will contemplate the preciousness of life…. it’s not going to last forever….
