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.

 Heart Disease Is Strong Motivation November 15, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I had my first heart attack at 43. One stent was placed in my LAD. I had a second heart attack last year at 48, two more stents. I was very lucky, yet again. I thought I was being good on my nutriton and exercise plan. It was not enough. Dr Esselstyn helps to explain why in this book. He gets right to the point and tells you why you need to follow his plan if you have heart disease. Some of the reviewers complain that the book is half recipies. I don't understand this at all. You will need them to make the transition to this lifestyle.
Is this plan difficult to stick with? Yes, at first, then you start to feel normal again and full of life. You feel the best you have felt in years! Your weight normalizes and your cholesterol drops like a rock. You become heart attack proof and you believe it. It's a much better feeling than the bloat not to mention the guilt after a big steak. No contest! I never want to lay on that operating table again thinking about what my family will do without me. Trust me, it's a very bad feeling.
I have taken back control, and now, you can too. Follow this plan to the letter and it will work for you too.
I have chosen life.
Changing my diet October 24, 2008

This book was very motivational. I want to share it with everyone that has heart disease and everyone I love. I have been on a vegan diet before and needed a motivation to restart a healthy diet and get my BP under control. This book got me back on track! I ordered 2, one for me and one to share. I probably should have ordered 3.
 Might work, difficult to comply October 24, 2008

This diet plan probably is an effective means to control existing heart disease and prevent further damage. Reversal may be possible, but sample size limited. Compliance is extremely difficult. Much more rigid intake than the average (or highly motivated) user will be able to adhere to.

An excellent dietary program, basically non-meat and dairy products. A major feature of the book is an extensive collection of recipes prepared principally by the author's wife, that make the seemingly difficult program not just palatable, but delicious.

I liked the book because the information was backed up by research and 20 years of patient data.
