Product Description
"At the turn of the century, heart disease andatherosclerosis were virtually unheard of. Today, however, they arethe Western world's number one killers, with cancer running rightbehind. As a practitioner who has examined many people, I know thatclogged arteries and poor circulation are an unfortunate fact of lifefor many. While mortality statistics at the turn of the century arenot altogether reliable, there is always a consistent figure fordeaths from heart attacks or heart disease: between 6 and 8 %. By the1950s, that number had climbed to 30%. Today, almost 50% of all deathsin the United States and Australia are from cardiovascular disease(CVD) or coronary heart disease (CHD). What went wrong?

As we shall see in this little book, the answers will surprise you." ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars An Intrepid Researcher
Stephen Byrnes' work was always well researched. This book is no exception to that. Rosemary's comment is typical of a PETA vegan; aggressive and attack-dog like. Stephen Byrnes DID follow his own advice but he died of complications of HIV.

1-0 out of 5 stars Byrnes died on June 17, 2004, of a stroke at age 40
Dr. Byrnes" was not a medical doctor. Before he died of cardiovascular disease at age 40 he held a doctorate in "Alternative Medicines from the Alternative Medicines Research Institute". His undergraduate work was not in a premed curriculum. He had a bachelor of arts degree in comparative religion.

If you want to treat or prevent heart disease read the works of Dr. Dean Ornish M.D.. His program has been clinically proven to reverse heart disease. The proof of his work is published in mainstream conservative medical journals.

1-0 out of 5 stars He practiced what he preached, and died young!
The author has no special information about nutrition that mainstream doctors and scientists don't know about--he is just plain wrong. Sadly, he died of a stroke at a young age in 2004. Ignore his advice and look for books with solid scientific references, such as those by Neal Barnard, MD, if you really want to improve your heart health.

5-0 out of 5 stars Spreading the word that will save lives.
Stephen Byrnes' book is short and clear and very persuasive.I have given it to three people (with cardiovascular health problems) as a gift and I am confident that if they read this book and take even a few things to heart, they will live healthier and longer.

1-0 out of 5 stars Pass on this one...
I found it hard to separate the wheat from the chaff with this book.The useful information in this book is buried between unsubstantiated statements of fact and obscure references.I mean, the author makes it sound like everybody should know what "acerola powder" is, as if you could pick it up at the local market.I found his writing style to be preachy and pontificating, like a politicized tirade from Crossfire, where the "other side" couldn't possibly have anything of value to add to the conversation. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Book on Heart Disease, Best for the Price Also
I have read more than a half dozen books on reversing or preventing heart disease and this is one of my favorites.Don't let the low price or original publication date throw you.Everything I read is mirrored in other more recent books and the author throws in some additional insights of her own.

I am a health care professional, and I ordered two dozen of these books and loan them out to patients and have had nothing but complements.

Other highly recommended books include my favorite 'Track Your Plaque, and any of Joel Fuhrman's Books.See a more complete review of mine of many of the books under a book called 'The Cure for Heart Disease'.

5-0 out of 5 stars Outstanding
It's hard to imagine finding more value for a few bucks than Jean Carper's various books, including 'Miracle Heart'.So I've given a couple dozen of these to friends, relatives, and employees.Because of this book, my wife & I have been on about 5 grams of citrus pectin per day (chapter 12) for a year and a half plus other recommendations longer.My dad & brother already have stents, and my wife's mother died of complications from strokes.We recently had our hearts scanned for hard plaque and both came up totally clean.Co-incidence?

Jean Carper's style is to usually cover one subject per chapter and reference the original research sources.Although I might like it a little more brief, I think she says enough to cover the subject without being too verbose.She covers a few or several subjects, puts a cover on it and goes to print.

We have serveral Carper books as well as another 50 health books.I think Jean Carper is one of the best sources in our library.Is this book perfect?Absolutely Not.Is it Outstanding? Absolutely Yes.Read it for what is there, not for what is not there.

4-0 out of 5 stars In addition to diet and exercise!
I understand the points of the previous reviewer. As a journalist, Carper might have included information from the studies he/she is referring to.However, I believe that those who are buying books like Miracle Heart arebecause they are already monitoring their diet and exercise to keep theirhearts healthy.Supplements do just that: supplement what we are alreadydoing.Co-Q10, ALA, HGH etc are not to replace choosing to exercise to eata healthy diet.I took Carper's information as a means to supplement whatI am already doing.My parents are taking Co-Q10 as part of their array ofsupplements and are feeling healthier.They get their supplements from asite called PapaNature because it offers documentation, a variety of brandsand door to door service.

4-0 out of 5 stars very informative
This book summarizes much of the latest research on prevention of cardiovascular related diseases.The author covers almost all (forgot, e.g. "melatonin") of the bases in relating the latestdevelopments in diet related heart disease prevention, and as such I foundit an excellent informative book.The author reports the studies, theresults, the recommendations and the dosages relating to supplementation ofvitamins, minerals, some herbal products, omega 3, etc. etc.The bookcontains new information that I believe has yet to be widely disemminated.. I discern the same weakness in this book as in much of the currentinformation on diet, to wit, how to combine allinto a single plan oftreatment.The author might have reported to us that studies have yet tobe done on how these divergent benefits of supplements can beadvantageously and safely combined, but instead omitted any suchdiscussion. Additionally, and I note this as another suspected weaknessin my mind of the medical work currently being done on diet, it seems thatall of the information is coming out of what I consider to be highlysuspicious "population" studies, as opposed to research onindividuals( ormonkees) on the chemical effects on a single individual ofsupplementation.If I am going to take 1000 grams of vitamin C per day, Iwould like to know the immediate and long term chemical effect, as opposedto knowing that 6000 people lowered their risk of heart attack by 19% by sotaking.And, then, immediately after reading the book, what do we get butone study concludingthat excess C contributes to, rather than prevents,the problem.But as an educational tool this is a very fine effort! ...

Product Description
“Only once in a great while does a book come along that really does the job in addressing a major medical issue.When this happens, all can be joyful…Readers will find ALL their favorite dietary puzzlements dealt with…With consummate scholarship, clarity and brevity, Truswell sifts out the chaff and identifies the critical questions, the responsible investigators, and the key studies.”So says Emeritus Professor Henry Blackburn from the University of Minnesota in the foreword to this remarkable concise book on the history ofresearch on diet and heart disease.This was a theme of scientific, medical and public interest in the 20th Century, a century marked by the rise and fall of coronary heart disease as the major cause of death in the first world, followed by the rise of this cause of death in the developing world.There is obviously much to learn, and this book is an excellent starting point, tracing dietary factors and their role in heart disease one by one: fats, sugar, salt, alcohol, coffee, trans-fats, etc.Without an understanding of the role of diet and the changes that have been seen in the North American and NW European diet, the story of the decline in the heart disease death rate may have been very different. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
The Seven Countries Study was the first to establish credibledata on incidence and death rates of CHD in contrasting cultures. Thestudy documented population differences in average levels anddistributions of coronary risk factors. It also demonstrated largedifferences in composition of the diet in otherwise similar, stable,rural agricultural or pastoral populations. Diet and cigarette smokingexplained most of the differences in population CHD rates, whilechanges in serum cholesterol and blood pressure levels between entryand 25-year follow-up examinations explained much of the change in CHDdeath rates. Results of the Seven Countries Study were crucial to the concept ofpopulation causes, that is, the mass phenomena involved in the genesisof coronary heart disease, and which influence widespread individualand species susceptibility. Where environments are unfavourable onefinds maximal exhibition of coronary risk and a heavy populationdisease burden. Where favourable, individual (genetic) susceptibilityis attenuated. This concept developed from the Seven Countries studydesign that combined, for the first time, a population and anindividual approach. The study was realised trough effectivecollaboration established among clinicians, epidemiologists andnutritionists from Europe, the U.S.A., and Japan. Implications: The Seven Countries Study has played a central role in the populationstrategy of heart disease prevention and health promotion,complementing traditional medical strategies. It contributed to thenotion that major risk factors universally predict individual risk.Cultures as well as individuals were found to differ greatly inabsolute risk of a coronary event at any level of single or combinedrisk factors, presumably due to different duration of risk exposure,different gene-environment interactions, and to factors not yet known.Intervention strategy is therefore best determined by absolute risk.Finally, the medical, public health, and nutrition community, as wellas agribusiness internationally, have been profoundly influenced bythe Seven Countries Study in their recommendations, toward morehealthy eating patterns. ...
