By Dr. Arthur Agatston

Heart disease is the biggest killer in our modern age, yet its causes - and just how much we can do to prevent it - are still not fully appreciated. In this authoritative yet easy to understand book, leading cardiologist Dr Arthur Agatston shares what years of working in the field have taught him - that not only is heart disease preventable but in many cases it is highly treatable. Part One of this important new book in the "South Beach" series looks at the most recent findings on the underlying causes of coronary artery disease; the importance of metabolic syndrome; why doctors are failing to use state-of-the-art aggressive heart disease prevention; and how Dr Agatston came to develop his groundbreaking approach. Part Two covers: how to determine your risk of developing cardiovascular disease; the advanced screening techniques that can help you tailor the program and increase its effectiveness; The South Beach Diet and how it can reduce the risk of heart disease; how to enhance your heart health through exercise - and why this is central to the Prevention Revolution; and last but not least, the lifesaving role of properly prescribed heart medications and supplements.
