Self-Help Health
The essential, cutting-edge,
exactly-what-you-need-to-know guide to heart health for
every man and woman—from a leading cardiologist and
professor, and longstanding spokesperson for the American
Heart Association.
In the last decade, the rules
for outliving heart disease—living well with your heart
until you die of something else—have changed dramatically
for you and your doctors. Weekly, even daily, new and often
confusing information about experimental findings is
disseminated, and sometimes refuted several months later.
But when the chatter dies down, a select percentage of that
information is meaningful and crucial because it will affect
not only how long you live, but how you live each day with
heart disease. It's this invaluable information that Dr.
Stein wants to share, distilling it for the first time in
this accessible, reader-friendly book that can save your
life.
Following a discussion of the latest medical
advancements involved in treatment, Dr. Stein lays out ten
chapters, each presenting a new rule for outliving heart
disease. Complete with resource lists, special "What to
Expect from Your Doctor" sections, and colorful anecdotes
throughout, Outliving Heart Disease is the one book
that contains the most up-to-date, proven information
available for preventing and treating heart
disease.
