Synopsis

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.

Best I've read on dealing with heart disease through nutrition. A must read.by DesertRich

February 09, 2009: This book is a must read and is definitely the best I have read on dealing with heart disease through nutrition. Dr. Esselstyn presents compelling scientific evidence that diet is the problem and that changing to a plant-based nutrition regimen will make all the difference in becoming healthy. Easy to read and understand, and with many delicious recipes. This is another one of the books I feel presents the inconvenient truth about the rich, western diet and its problems. Don't pass on this book if you seriously care about your health.
