A year ago, Dr Bob Arnot's father - himself a distinguished doctor - died of a massive heart attack. It was a horrible shock to everyone until Dr Bob began investigating it. Though he knew vastly more about his health and his heart than the average person, Dr Bob's father - and his father's doctor - had missed some of the classic warning signs of a heart attack. What's more, he hadn't been taking important preventative steps and wasn't up to date on the science or medicine. Dr Bob's father's tragic experience inspired him to write this book. He has analyzed all the latest research and talked to the experts (who are quoted extensively) in the various cardiology fields. The result is a clear, concise and comprehensive, easy-to-follow guide to understanding all the risks, the symptoms, the procedures and the medications for insuring a healthy heart. SEVEN STEPS TO STOP A HEART ATTACK is a book so important even doctors should read it.

The premise of this revolutionary book by national health and fitness expert Dr. Bob Arnot is simple yet enormously powerful: foods are drugs. Eating certain foods inevitably causes you to gain weight and feel lousy, while eating other types can virtually guarantee that you will lose weight and feel terrific. Armed with this understanding, the author of the bestselling Dr. Bob Arnot's Guide to Turning Back the Clock sets forth a remarkable new and easy step-by-step program that will fundamentally alter your body's physiology from weight gain to weight loss and, in the process, change the way you feel about food forever.

A plethora of recent discoveries by the world's premier scientists has ushered in a new era in weight control, and Dr. Arnot is the first to synthesize their findings into a comprehensive, effective program. Here you will find cutting-edge information on negative-ion generators, dawn simulators, nutritional supplements and, most important, glucose loads. For reasons clearly explained, foods that your body rapidly converts to glucose lead inexorably to weight gain -- the worst culprits being foods with high levels of starch or refined sugar. Instead, you should be consuming hard foods -- ones with high soluble fiber. Eating such foods keeps you feeling full, energized, and healthy while you shed pounds.

With chapters and charts on everything from Feedforward Eating (a complete plan for what to eat -- and when -- over the course of each day) to identifying foods that make you thin, Dr. Bob Arnot's Program for Perfect Weight Control is more than just another diet book -- it's a way of life, a new way of thinking about food, that will change the way you look and feel for years to come.
