This is a fantastic book, full of information to help prevent and even reverse heart disease. No, you don't have to eat just cardboard and tofu! There is a HUGE array of foods you can eat, but yes, it's basically plant-based, but I'm sure you already knew that. You will not go hungry on this 'diet', I promise. This is more of a lifestyle than a diet. The book has lots and lots of recipes to try. Once you realize what your body really needs to work efficiently, it's easy to pick and choose what to eat. I highly recommend this book. Your body will thank you!

I bought this book because, although I don't have heart disease, I do have a family history of heart disease on both sides of the family. Having read the book, I decided to follow the nutrition plan for a trial period of 3 months. I am six weeks into that trial period now and it hasn't been too hard to follow although I would admit I have deviated from it on 4 or 5 meals during the six weeks so I haven't followed it absolutely rigidly. I took my blood cholesterol today. My previous 10 readings were all between 4.4mmol/L(170mg/dL) and 6.9mmol/L (265mg/dL) but after six weeks on this plan I recorded my lowest ever reading of 2.5mmol/L (~95mg/dL) and my ratio of total cholesterol to HDL was 3.57 which is well within the healthy range.
On top of that, I have lost weight, lost body fat, and I feel great despite not doing as much exercise as I should be doing. If you want to get your blood cholesterol down without taking drugs to achieve it, this is a great way to do it. It requires some effort, but it's worth it.

This inexpensive book changed my life. I had been suffering from Angina for 14 years and after a mild heart attack during last cold winter spell, think gradually got worse until I was struggling to climb stairs and walk up hills especially in the really cold weather.
After the doctor suggested the only solution was either a Stent or a ByPass, Came across a supperb video by Dr. Caldwell Esselstyne and eventually tracked down his book - " Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease".
Within about 3 weaks I was walking upstairs and up our local hills without the rel difficulty I had experienced previously and although I didn't need or intend to lose weight, I had actually lost 1 stone in just one month.
The advice and recipes in this book are a revelation even although I though I was eating a very healthy diet. I would certainly recommend this to anyone suffering from heart disease of any kind and certainly anyone with Angina or the clogging up of the arteries.

Useful, but simply that
This is a very good book, but I can't give it 5 stars as much of the research runs contrary to peer-reviewed scientific evidence published in JAMA or the BMJ for example. Read more
