Conquering Heart Disease
  • Hardback book with Dust Jacket by Harvey B. Simon, M.D. Harvard Medical School
  • Over 390 pages; First Edition; Copyright 1994

" New Ways to Live Well Without Drugs or Surgery "

" Featuring latest {at time of publication} information on diet, antioxidants, nutritional supplements, alcohol, aspirin, estrogen, and more "

" Heart disease remains America's leading killer, accounting for 43 percent of all deaths.
Despite advances in medical technology, heart disease is most effectively prevented- even treated- outside a doctor's office or hospital.
Now, Dr. Harvey B. Simon shows how you can fight heart disease with the most up-to-date {at time of publication} scientific information and know-how, but without drugs or surgery."

" Dr. Simon's program is unique in going far beyond the familiar "big four"- low-fat diet, exercise, smoking cessation, and stress reduction.
His program advocates nutritional supplements such as antioxidants and soluble fiber, which are often overlooked by physicians despite their demonstrated benefits, and he explains why most recent controversial studies of antioxidants may be misleading."

" Other controversial though scientifically valid recommendations include low-dose alcohol, regular consumption of fish, low-dose aspirin, and avoiding passive smoking.
Dr. Simon also takes a clear position on dietary minerals- those to avoid (sodium, copper, iron) and those to increase (selenium, chromium, calcium, potassium)
The role of niacin is accessed in light of its potentially serious side effects.
And there is even a chapter called "Facts or Fads: Other Tips That May Help," which includes the latest word on everything from garlic and onions to vitamin B6, antacids, and lecithin.
An important chapter on estrogen replacement therapy addresses the special concerns of women and their particular risk factors.
In addition, the book features self-assessment tests and options for planning customized programs tailored to personal risk factors, needs, and preferences.
And, finally, should medical intervention be necessary, Dr. Simon explains the benefits and risks of state-of-the-art medical tests, medications, and other treatments."

" Because many of Dr. Simon's recommendations may strike some as unorthodox, he documents the scientific basis for his program by presenting and explaining in clear language the relevant medical studies.
Authoritative, practical, and supportive, Conquering Heart Disease is an empowering way to avoid high-tech medicine and to achieve optimum cardiovascular health."
