Book Reviews of Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease: The Revolutionary, Scientifically Proven, Nutrition-Based Cure
Book Review: Masterpiece, pioneering work of preventive medicine!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is the best single book to decrease your risk of a heart attack. It is beautifully illustrated with drawings that explain acute plaque rupture versus chronic atherosclerotic stenosis. This is the key concept to understand as a guiding light to optimizing your vascular health. Eating and exercising to keep your coronary arteries wide open will also improve blood flow to your brain and reproductive organs. The illustrations include cardiac cath/coronary angiogram images. I am a physician and the data is now showing more and more that diet is the cornerstone of preventive medicine. Eg. in the past it was argued that a positive FH (family history) implied a genetic risk. More and more,instead of being due to shared genes, this has often been shown due to shared environmental risk factors eg. diet, tobacco, obesity, alcohol etc. This is good news, because, you can't change your genes, but you can change your diet. The good news is that you can take control and improve your life. If you are interested in optimizing your health, I also recommend the China Study by Campbell, any book by John McDougall MD and the DVD "Rogers Diet" of which I am the author. The DVD is a convenient way to get an MD's advice on cholesterol, diet, wt loss and prevention of heart attack & diabetes etc.The Rogers Diet

Summary of Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease: The Revolutionary, Scientifically Proven, Nutrition-Based Cure
A powerful call for a paradigm shift in heart disease therapy.Based on the groundbreaking results of a twenty-year nutritional study by Dr. Esselstyn, a preeminent researcher and clinician, this book illustrates that a plant-based, oil-free diet can not only prevent and stop the progression of heart disease but can also reverse its effects. The proof lies in the incredible outcomes for patients who have followed Dr. Esselstyn's program, including a number of patients in his original study who had been told by their cardiologists that they had less than a year to live. Within months of starting the program, Dr. Esselstyn's patients began to improve dramatically, and twenty years later, they remain free of symptoms.
Complete with more than 150 delicious recipes, this book explains the science behind the simple plan that has drastically changed the lives of Dr. Esselstyn's patients forever. It will empower readers to take control of their heart health.
