Download or read book Reversing Heart Disease High Blood Pressure and Blocked Arteries written by Peter Dingle and published by . This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book began with the sobering facts of how many people die and suffer from cardiovascular disease and the material presented here has demonstrated that they don't have to do so. With more than 1,000 studies--and studies of studies--it is clear that the medical system is broken and that we are the ones suffering while the medical system does little to help our health. There is no need for the pain, suffering and death that results from these diseases and there is no need for the vast majority of the medications doled out to us. The medications are not just useless; they are deadly. Undoubtedly the greatest challenge we face today is not cardiovascular disease but the underlying cancer of the medical and pharmaceutical systems that put profit before people. However, the science shows that by changing our diet, environment, attitude and lifestyle (DEAL) we can not only dramatically reduce our risk of all forms of cardiovascular disease (and other chronic illnesses) but also reverse these conditions. There is overwhelming scientific evidence, thousands more studies than I have provided here, that an integrated approach to your health, like the DEAL, works. This information provides you with the opportunity to lead a much healthier and happier life. But you are the one who needs to do something about it. Information is great but unless you take action it means nothing. The power to lead a healthier life is in your hands. Take action now. Don't wait. I began this book by describing Occam's razor. The information presented in this book is not just a list of the simpler solutions; they are the ones that work. The current system has to change. The change has already begun, and doctors need to decide whether to go with it or be left behind. This was summed up by one of the doctors attending an environmental and nutritional medicine seminar some years ago. When asked why he was there, his response was, My patients were going to other practitioners and they were getting well and I wanted to know what they were doing. So I'm here. Health is like banking: the more you invest in it now the more you have later, with interest. It is time to start investing in your health, beginning now.

Drawing upon lessons from his own life, Mayo Clinic cardiologist Stephen Kopecky offers a holistic, evidence-based approach to preventing common diseases and chronic illnesses and living a longer life of pleasure and purpose. In the past century, the leading causes of death around the world have shifted from infectious diseases to long-term chronic illnesses. What’s killing us today isn’t so much flu or tuberculosis, but heart disease and cancer. In fact, more than 1.2 million Americans die from these two diseases each year. Paradoxically, these chronic diseases are a consequence of living longer than ever. But even if we’re living longer, are we living better? The overwhelming number of people now living under the burden of chronic illness indicates otherwise. After surviving two bouts of cancer, Dr. Stephen Kopecky, M.D set out to discover the behaviors people can adopt to live longer lives free of chronic illnesses and diseases. What he discovered was that the answer lies in just six habits that require small changes to your daily life, but reap big results long-term. From adopting better diet and exercise habits to managing stress and sleep, these behaviors will not only preserve your health, they can improve your quality of living and extend your life. The secret, however, lies not just in the steps themselves but in how you accomplish them. This book offers in-depth insights on: The best foods to eat and why Increasing physical activity and improving fitness Why your sleep habits matter The dangers of stress and what to do about them The true impact of alcohol and tobacco on our bodies How to make changes that will last a lifetime After 30 years of research in the field of cardiovascular disease prevention, Dr. Kopecky is sharing what he’s learned from his practice and own personal experience about staying healthy, preventing chronic illnesses, and living younger longer.
