When you or someone you love is diagnosed with cardiovascular
disease, it's important to know the facts, which can help save a
life. In the American Medical Association Guide to Preventing and
Treating Heart Disease, you will learn everything you need to know
about heart disease to ensure a long, full, and active life.
Authoritative and up to date, the American Medical Association
Guide to Preventing and Treating Heart Disease explains the most
common forms of heart and blood vessel disease and lays out
practical strategies to get you on the road to better health. The
book also provides up-to-date information on women and their unique
heart disease risks and symptoms as well as information on
hart6-healthy eating, including the National Heart, Lung, and Blood
Institute's DASH diet.
Even if heart disease runs in your family, you can still lower
your risk of developing it by following the simple guidelines found
in this comprehensive resource. For every 3 pounds you lose, there
is a corresponding drop of about 2mm Hg in your diastolic pressure,
and by bringing down your blood pressure to healthy levels, your
risk of stroke can be reduced by 35 to 50 percent. If you have
already had a heart attack or a stroke, this book offers vital
practical information on preventing another one.
Highlighting prevention, lifestyle changes, testing, and
treatments, the American Medical Association Guide to Preventing
and Treating Heart Disease provides you and your loved ones with
the essential tools you need to reclaim a healthier life.
