Main description:

Despite 40 years of aggressive pharmaceutical and surgical interventions, coronary artery disease remains the number one killer of women and men in Western civilization. Cardiovascular disease, more than ever, demonstrates the landscape has changed so significantly, that new information must be given to the young and old health professionals seeing patients on a day to day basis.

Dr. Sinatra has 40 plus years of experience in cardiovascular disease and is board-certified in internal medicine and cardiology. Dr. Mark Houston practices integrative nutritional preventive cardiology and has superb expertise in hypertension, and dyslipidemia which are major factors in the genesis of cardiovascular disease.

The information in this book will give doctors-to-be, and even doctors-that-are the overlooked information they need for a balanced approach to cardiovascular treatment that includes a healing/healthy diet, nutritional supplementation, exercise and weight management. Those are crucial and powerful additions to the toolbox with which to maintain health and fix problems. That's the integrative approach that Dr. Sinatra, Dr Houston and his fellow authors, have been using with great success for decades.
