One of two essential books to read if you want to prevent or reverse heart disease. by Groovy Vegan (USA)  5 Stars
August 16, 2009
IMO If you have heart disease or want to prevent it, there are two books that are essential for you to read--in this order: "Preventing and Reversing Hearth Disease" by Caldwell Essylstein, M.D., and "The Sinatra Solution" by Stephen T. Sinatra, M.D. Dr. Esselstyn's book will help you get your diet in order, while Dr. Sinatra's book will help you get your supplementation program in order.
Dr. Sinatra has had amazing success with the synergistic combination of 4 supplements: D-ribose, L-carnitine, coenzyme Q10, and magnesium. He and like-minded colleagues have brought people back from serious heart disease and even the brink of death with this combination, although he fails to mention if they made dietary changes in conjunction with the supplements.
Sinatra doesn't just tell you to take these supplements and in what quantity, but goes into cardio biochemistry to explain exactly why to take them. Don't be intimidated by the biochemistry--it's very well written for the educated layperson, complete with analogies familiar to just about everyone. He doesn't bog you down in detail, and tells you just what you need to know to understand his supplementation program. If you really dislike biochemistry, you can take him at his word, and skip over to what/how much to take. But in my experience nutrition counseling, if you truly know why you're taking a supplement, you'll be more motivated to take it.
My one issue with the book is that Dr. Sinatra is very wary of a vegan diets due to the lack of carnitine in them. My response is that long-term vegans who eat healthy quantities of fruits and vegetables, and who supplement with vitamin B12, rarely get heart disease, unless they have a congenital problem. These are the folks who generally avoid clogging their arteries and maintain a healthy weight/blood pressure. Drs. Caldwell Esselstyn, Dean Ornish, and John McDougall have had amazing success reversing heart disease with plant-based diets.
My advice is to read this book for your supplementation regimen, and Dr. Esselstyn's book for your dietary changes. If you are vegetarian or vegan, note that there are vegan sources of l-carnitine, such as the carnitine liquid by Now foods. Other than my one qualm about diet, I highly recommend this book to everyone who wants to prevent or reverse heart disease.
P.S. This book does not discuss which form to CoQ10 to take--ubiquinol or ubiquinone. But Dr. Sinatra addresses that in a blog entry written after the book was published[...]

A must read for good health. by Annette J. Moore (Meridian, ID USA) 5 Stars
August 03, 2009
Regardless of any health problem you might have, Dr. Sinatra's book is a must read. Although his main target is heart disease, he offers an understanding of how disease begins, at the cellular level. This book gives you the tools and resources to start taking responsibility for your own health, at the nutritional level, and leave the pharmaceuticals as the last resort, where they belong.

A good hope to heart patients and health providers by S V SWAMY (Hyderabad, India)  4 Stars
February 21, 2008
This book is a really welcome addition to the growing field of metabolic cardiology (the role of food nutritional supplements to improve heart health - not a dictionary definition).
The author is a Board Certified Cardiologist, a certified bioenergetic psychotheraist and a certified nutrition and antiaging specialist. At his practice in Manchester, Connecticut, USA, he integrates conventional medicine with complementary nutritional and psychological therapies to help heal the heart. He is an assistant clinical professor at the University of Connecticut School of Medicine, and is the author of several books, including Optimum Health, Heartbreak and Heart Disease, Heart Sense for Women, and Eight Weeks to Lowering Blood Pressure. Thus his credentials to write such a book are excellent.
The book gives detailed information, backed by many case studies and other published research papers on the role of Coenzyme Q10, L-Carnitine, D-Ribose and Magnesium in maintaining and improving heart health and also diseases of the peripheral blood vessels, muscles and conditions like Fibromyalgia etc.
The introduction by Dr. James C. Roberts, M.D, F.A.C.C. is really excellent and gives a good idea of the subject. Chapter 8 and the Conclusion also are helpful in allowing you to decide whether the book will be helpful for you. Chapters 4, 5, 6 and 7 deal with the four supplements in detail. The book has a glossary, Resources, References and an Index.
An excerpt: In congestive heart failure (CHF), like other cardiovascular and many other disease syndromes, the actual root causes can be quite varied, from weakened heart muscle, to overly tight or overly loose heart valves, and so on. And while it is definitely appropriate that cardiologists (and other medical practitioners) use the conventional drugs mentioned to treat CHF - because they work - consideration toward adding powerful nutritional supports like L - Carnitine, coenzyme Q10, and D-Ribose is equally judicious.
Only by adding the these three nutritional supports will practitioners be treating symptoms as well as directing nutrition to the cellular level, where it can make a real difference on the underlying pathology. I have watched from the side lines as the simple addition of these nutrients has affected my patients' quality of life most positively... and has even helped them live longer than expected with their heart conditions.
(From Pages 93 and 94, Chapter 5)
End of the excerpt
I would suggest that you check out the Introduction, the Chapter 8 (Sinatra Solution) and the Conclusion. The subject is very difficult to explain in layman's language but the author and editors tried their best. Printing is very good.
For whom the book is meant: Patients and their care givers. Many health professionals will find this a good handy guide to the field of metabolic cardiology.
Recommendation: An excellent buy for preventive and maintenance care of the heart and general health. Will make an excellent gift to your family members, friends and their cardiologists and of course to yourself too!

very strong info to help the heart by John Shell (Virginia, USA) 5 Stars
November 22, 2007
This book is written by an MD Cardiologist and contains very strong testimonial and evidence (to my mind at least) with plenty of references - and simple logical explanations of the chemistry in the body that make these supplements effective for many people with heart problems. I think it helped my Mom who had congestive heart failure after chemotherapy and now can walk 2 miles a day. Of course only God knows what is really going on. A lot of "industrial strength prayers" went up through Christ and I think this book coming into my hands was one result of this much prayer. She takes 2 of the supplements recommended by Dr. Sinatra. (PS I think healthy folks also might greatly benefit from these supplements he recommends - an ounce of prevention likely would pay off big time.)
I believe the info in this book will help tens of thousands of people overcome and/or survive many heart conditions that less informed MD's only know how to treat with drugs and surgery. The interesting thing to me is that Dr. Sinatra claims in this book that these supplements he recommends work in conjunction with and do not interfere with standard heart medications. So this is a win-win situation. Be warned that apparently most cardiologists are very ignorant regarding nutritional solutions (including supplements) for heart problems, so you would need to do your homework (and this book is a GREAT TOOL for this) before talking to your doctor. But Dr. Sinatra provides simple, basic and very strong and easy to understand info in this book that can be verified by a sincere inquirer, who really wants the truth.
(caution: I don't recommend Dr. Sinatra's other books that I have gotten, due to a bunch of well-meaning "New Age mumbo jumbo" (my editorial characterization, sorry!) that crept in, but the Sinatra Solution is a "meat and potatoes" tutorial on the benefits and the reasons why on 4 supplements that I think have proven very effective for many folks with serious heart problems. Particularly Co-Q 10 and Magnesium.
So I strongly recommend "The Sinatra Solution"
for anyone with heart problems or a loved one with heart problems, especially if these are caused by cancer treatments. And all cardiologists ought to read it so they don't get left behind.
Thanks, and sorry this review is somewhat lengthy!
PS I have bought extra copies of this book to give away, I really like it.

vital information for medical providers by Ira M. Edwards 5 Stars
November 16, 2007
I gave an unfavorable review a few days ago, thinking of cardiac patients who probably won't get far in a book that is not well written. But the information Dr. Sinatra presents is so important, and so neglected by medical doctors, that now I deleted my former review, and now rate it five stars. Many cardiac patients will be much healthier if their doctors understand the importance of magnesium, enzyme coQ10, carnitine and ribose.
I am the author of HONEST NUTRITION and a book in progress about chronic diseases. I have learned much from Dr. Sinatra and his great newsletter.

The synergistic combination of these energy-supplying nutrients maximizes the amount of oxygen that the heart and skeletal muscle can extract from the blood by accelerating the rate at which cells convert nutrients into energy.
