We have a 50% chance of dying from heart or artery disease. But we can prevent these epidemic killers by using a simple yet powerful medicine - food. By understanding nutrition and correctly supplementing your diet. (2006) 149pp
On the basis of all the evidence presented, it is now clear what you need to eat and drink (or not) to maximise your heart health. Depending on your current eating habits and tastes, you may find changes hard to achieve overnight, but once you start making realistic steps towards that goal, you will be making progress.
The book also contains a typical day’s menus and recipes that incorporates all the beneficial foods so you can see how you can enjoy your food and eat yourself to health.
