The New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Live, Super Immunity,
The End of Diabetes, and The End of Dieting presents a scientifically
proven, practical program to prevent and reverse heart disease, the
leading cause of death in America--coinciding with the author's new
medical study revealing headline-making findings.
Dr. Joel Fuhrman, one of the country's leading experts on preventative
medicine, offers his science-backed nutritional plan that addresses the
leading cause of death in America: heart disease. An expert in the
science of food, Dr. Fuhrman speaks directly to readers who want to take
control of their health and avoid taking medication or undergoing
complicated, expensive surgery, the two standard treatments prescribed
today.
Following the model of his previous programs that have successfully
tackled conditions from diabetes to dieting, Dr. Fuhrman's plan begins
with the food we eat. He focuses on a high nutrient per calorie ratio,
with a range of options for different needs and conditions. He shows us
what to remove and what to add to our diets for optimum heart health,
provides menu plans and recipes for heart-healthy meals and snacks, and
includes helpful questions for doctors and patients.
By understanding heart disease and its triggers, Dr. Fuhrman gives us
the knowledge to counter-attack this widespread epidemic and lead
longer, healthier lives.
