Product Description 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.

Excellent August 17, 2008 I purchased this and The China Study - two books closely related / companions in my opinion. They even talk about each other. The recipes in this book have really helped us eat healthier and I highly recommend this book for a good understand of what heart disesase is and how to prevent it (and how to reduce other illnesses as well). Add a little bit of unrefined sea salt to the recipes and they are delicious. Half of this book is just recipes! It is a very easy read, and very captivating.
Starve Your Heart of Protein August 10, 2008 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
I wish I had not wasted my time and money on this worthless book. If it has a face, according to the author, don't eat it. That means, no fish, no poultry, no lamb no lean beef or any other high quality protein. My aim was to get away from prescriptions that do not cure a condition, but simply relieves symthoms. However, this book advocates statins to control cholestrol something that I would prefer to do via diet when you consider the many dangerous side effects of drugs especially the statins. When Dr. Esselstyn stated that no oils including Olive oil was good for you, and went on to state that this monosaturated 'heart healthy' oil should be avoided because it contained a small amount of saturated fat, I knew it was time to put down the book and move on to a doctor---preferably and alternative physician---who knew his subject.
Reversing Heart Disease August 8, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I found this book very helpful after going through a scary heart experience myself this Christmas and ending up with a stent placement. This book gave me hope and something proven to help to do myself. I enjoy the recipes and eating healthy with the hope my health and heart will improve.
May work - but it's unrealistic August 3, 2008 0 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book can be summed up very quickly - no meat, no fish, no oil - if you enjoy eating at all, this is not a solution for you. If you are willing to live on fruits and vegetables only, I suppose it probably works.
Excellent Resource August 3, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you are serious about combating cardiovascular disease (not for the faint hearted) and willing to take drastic steps in your battle for health and take responsibility for your own health, this book is an excellent resource. Has recipes to help you get you started.
