Book Description
A combination of the newest blood tests, medications, and nutrition approaches have made coronary heart disease preventable, but for most of us, it’s still not a question of if, but when. Renowned and leading preventive cardiologist Michael Ozner says there’s no reason to wait until you have a heart attack or stroke. In Heart Attack Proof, Dr. Ozner shares the same six-week cardiac makeover to prevent and reverse heart disease he has been successfully giving his patients for more than 25 years. Even if you’ve been diagnosed with heart disease or have undergone surgery, you can still improve your condition; his easy week-by-week plan arms you with the latest science and research to make you virtually heart attack proof. Learn: In Week 1: What new blood tests can uncover hidden risks and save your life; In Week 2: How to get started on an exercise routine; In Week 3: Effective ways to manage stress; In Week 4: Scientifically proven approach to a heart-healthy diet and weight control; In Week 5: How to treat and reverse the metabolic risk factors; In Week 6: Which vitamins and supplements are beneficial for cardiovascular health.

Philip Smith, Editor in Chief, Life Extension Magazine“What distinguishes
Heart Attack Proof from similar works in this field is Dr. Ozner’s ability to translate sound principles of preventive cardiology into simple, practical, sustainable changes that lead readers to a new normal’ way of living. Rather than a program built on rigid dietary restrictions and aggressive no pain, no gain’ exercise recommendations, this book meets individuals where they are and provides step wise options to facilitate successful change.”
