Heart disease is the number-one killer in the United States. Despite the latest advances in treatment, when it comes to your heart, top experts agree: prevention is the best medicine. The good news is that it’s never too late — or too early — to lower your risk of heart attack and stroke. And it doesn’t have to be complicated.
Where do you start? Discover the keys to maximizing your heart health with this user-friendly manual. Based on the latest research and decades of clinical experience from 30+ cardiologists and other experts at the world-renowned Mayo Clinic, this book encourages a proactive, holistic approach that focuses on making positive changes before the appearance of heart disease. It breaks down the latest expertise — and how to tell fact from fiction — on key factors such as nutrition, exercise, stress management, the newest medications and even how sleep affects heart health. Full-color illustrations and infographics and an airy design with text call-outs help create an appealing, trade-oriented reading experience.
Included in the book are answers to many common questions, such as:
- What’s the difference between “good” and “bad” cholesterol?
- Will Ozempic really benefit my heart?
- Should I test my blood pressure at home?
- Is red wine good for me?
- What's the best type of exercise for the heart?
- Are seed oils really bad for health?
- What should I make of headlines about microplastics and heart health?
- What are the biggest risk factors for heart disease?
