Reviews" Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease provides a practical approach for people to regain their lost health. Considering the worldwide prevalence of coronary artery disease this book should become the bestseller of all times." --John McDougall, M.D., author of The McDougall Program, "Dr. Esselstyn's solution in Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease is as profound as Newton's discovery of gravity. Half of all Americans dying today could have changed their date with the undertaker by following Dr. Esselstyn's plan." -Howard F. Lyman, author of No More Bull! and Mad Cowboy, "Dr. Esselstyn's solution in Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease is as profound as Newton's discovery of gravity. Half of all Americans dying today could have changed their date with the undertaker by following Dr. Esselstyn's plan." --Howard F. Lyman, author of No More Bull! and Mad Cowboy, "Dr. Esselstyn's eminently successful arrest-and-reversal therapy for heart disease through patient education and empowerment as the treatment of choice will send shock waves through a mercenary medical system that focuses largely on pills and procedures." --Hans Diehl, Founder & Director of the Coronary Health Improvement Program (CHIP), "If you have heart disease, this book should be essential reading. It could save your life." -Michael F. Jacobson, Executive Director, Center for Science in the Public Interest, "This powerful program will make you virtually heart-attack proof. Based on decades of research, Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn has shown not only how to prevent heart disease, but how to reverse it-even for people who have been affected for many years. I strongly recommend this important book." --Neal D. Barnard, M.D., President, Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, and author of Breaking the Food Seduction, "Dr. Esselstyn has always been ahead of his time. His focus on the healing powers of proper nutrition on diseased coronary arteries has now proven right, raising another unthinkable notion--that heart patients can cure themselves." --Bernadine Healy, M.D., former Director of the National Institutes of Health, "One of the most outstanding projects in health research of the past century. It's relevant, it's caring, it's innovative, it's extremely well executed and it's very, very useful." -T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D., author of The China Study, "This powerful program will make you virtually heart-attack proof.

Considering the worldwide prevalence of coronary artery disease this book should become the bestseller of all times." -John McDougall, M.D., author of The McDougall Program, "Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn has directed pioneering research demonstrating that the progression of even severe coronary heart disease can often be reversed by making comprehensive change in diet and lifestyle." -Dean Ornish, M.D, founder, president and director of Preventive Medicine Research Institute and author of Dr. Dean Ornish's Program for Reversing Heart Disease, "A hard nosed scientist shows us his secrets for successfully cleaning the rusting arteries of so many patients - and it doesn't even hurt." -Mehmet Oz, M.D., coauthor, You: The Owner's Manual, "Dr. Esselstyn has always been ahead of his time. His focus on the healing powers of proper nutrition on diseased coronary arteries has now proven right, raising another unthinkable notion-that heart patients can cure themselves." -Bernadine Healy, M.D., former Director of the National Institutes of Health, "Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, Jr., is certainly the father (and the mother) of the now proven hypothesis that you can reverse severe arterial disease (including severe disease of the arteries supposed to nourish your heart). He proved that radical changes in diet (and that alone) cause radical changes in the age and disease of your arteries-and that you can make your arteries much younger. So even if you only want to try this plan five days a week, this book is a must purchase because of its great recipes that spice low fat plant based food to high taste-you may even want to enjoy (and know I am using that word specifically and as intentionally as the proposal I made to my wife 33 years ago) the recipes all 7 days." -Michael Roizen, M.D., coauthor of YOU: The Owner's Manual and YOU: On A Diet.

  • COMPELLING! The best research / study on coronary heart disease.

    Eight years ago at age 68, I was diagnosed with coronary heart disease with more than 80% blockage in the anterior descending artery. On the morning of the scheduled by-pass surgery, I had a gut feeling NOT to go through with it, not because of fear of the surgery but for listening to the promptings I felt. I went to the hospital anyway to interview with the surgeon and he couldn't argue with what I said. Knowing that I refused to have the surgery, my GP suggested Dr Esselstyn's book. It has been an eye opener and a life saver. In the beginning, his regimen was not easy to follow but in my case, MY LIFE DEPENDED ON IT. I am now an active 76 year old, taking no medications except for a baby aspirin every day. My resting heart rate now, is between 55 and 60. Not only do I recommend his book, I have given away at least a dozen copies to family and friends. I cannot stress more, the value of reading and following this regimen.

  • eat right - live long

    easy read - everything you need to know about changing eating style to improve health and offset heat problems. I was dead-set against going to a "vegitariam style diet" until I read this book. Now, after 3 weeks on this eating plan, 1) I've lost 25 lbs. 2)I no longer need to take my diabetes pills 3) I no longer have sleep apnea and the need to use a respirator - which I had to use for the last 18 years 3) I feel a whole lot better. Thank goodness for this book. When in doubt get it read it and also buy The China Study

  • This book can save your life as it is saving mine

    Dr. Esselstyn has been doing research for many many years and if you follow his instructions and eat just as he says you can lower your cholesterol and triglycerides with in 6 weeks, I lowered my triglycerides from 405 to 173, something my doctors said would never happen - I did it in four weeks and my doctors were amazed and I did it without statins - I will never again change the way I eat and I am trying right now to see if I can reverse the blockage in one of my arteries and I am sure it will.
