Synopsis

Women are smart, strong, and resilient, yet we are dying needlessly of cardiovascular disease, the foremost killer of American women. The disease claims the lives of nearly half a million women each year, and is on the rise in those younger than 55. The good news is that 85 percent of heart disease can be prevented with a lifestyle that embraces a holistic approach to health and vitality. Written by a nationally recognized cardiologist with a keen understanding of the unique nature of a woman's heart, The Smart Woman's Guide to Heart Health: Dr. Sarah's Seven Steps to a Heart Loving Lifestyle will help you take control of your health and, perhaps, your destiny. The Smart Woman's Guide to Heart Health empowers women to make heart-loving, life-saving choices for themselves and those they love.
