EDITORIAL REVIEWS | Product Description Heart disease is largely preventable, but conventional cholesterol management is often inadequate. According to university cardiologist and leading prevention specialist Dr. Stephen R. Devries, avoiding heart disease requires a far more comprehensive approach that balances new high tech testing with low tech treatments. Now, in WHAT YOUR DOCTOR MAY NOT TELL YOU ABOUT CHOLESTEROL, Dr. Devries combines natural treatments with the latest scientificadvances. New types of cholesterol tests are highlighted that go far beyond routine testing to identify hidden risks. Expanding the traditional medical model, Dr. Devries illustrates the role of mind/body interventions, lifestyle, supplements, vitamins, and conservative use of medication for optimal prevention. |
CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.0 based on 10 reviews)
| Good book by Suz (PA) 4 Stars November 03, 2009 The book is good, but there's not enough information on it. I was specifically looking for info. on silent heart attacks and that's not even mentioned. At 6.99 the price was perfect.
| | Very Disappointed With This Purchase by A. DeLeonardis 1 Stars July 10, 2009 If you have searched the net for cholesterol or read even one book on the subject, you will be wasting your money here.
I would highly recommend - "Best Choices From the Peoples Pharmacy". The chapter on cholesterol is worth the price of the book. And there are several other chapters - including high blood pressure. Buy this book instead.
| | IT NEVER CAME by Dr. Christian Meyer 1 Stars March 02, 2009 I ORDERED THIS BOOK ON FEB 19. AMAZON SAID IT WOULD COME BY FEB 25TH. THE TRUE OF THE MATTER IS THAT IT NEVER ARRIVED & I HAVE NO WAY TO CLAIM IT.
POOR QUALITY SERVICE (OR IT MIGHT BE STOLEN FROM THE COURIER?)
| | This Book Produces Results that matter .... by Robert Deprez (USA) 5 Stars December 04, 2008 My father died at the age of 40 of heart disease. I have bad genetics and by the age of 38 my cholesterol was Total 270 HDL 47 LDL 181(Yikes) I was a tri-athlete and had a healthy diet but the results showed real problems.
I started a cardio program with a HUGE cardiologist group in Chicago. These traditional doctors failed to me on every level and past prescribing Lipitor they had little to offer. They DISMISSED my direct questions about contributing risk factors beyond cholesterol.
My standard cardiologist (or western medicine drug pusher) prescribed Lipitor at 20 mg and then raised it to 40 mg. (To this day they are clueless about the need to prescribe CoQ10) By hammering away with drugs my Cholesterol profile went to TOTAL 180 HDL 45 LDL 110.
Not bad you say, well read this book and when you learn about LDL particle density, LP(a), Homocysteine, and other factors. I learned I was an accident waiting to happen. ARE YOU AWARE THAT THE POLITCAL NEWS ANALYST TIM RUSSERT DIED OF A HEART ATTACK 30 days after getting a clear bill of health from his cardiologist. He had the same problems that I have and that killed my father.!!
I was put on Dr DeVries program by a wonderful Doctor: Dr. Thomas O'Bryan in Chicago. He tested for the risk factors in this book BEFORE it was published. Dr O'Bryan explained in detail my real risks, why I was in such danger and prescribed Dr Devries program almost to the letter. The program includes non traditional supplements that are cheap and easy to get!!!
After implementing the supplements recommended by Dr. Devries my Cholesterol profile is TOTAL 140, HDL 55, LDL 73. These numbers are very important because my LDL is made up of Small Dense Lipoproteins (aka "lil packets of death") so reducing my LDL by an additional 35% is huge. Also note my HDL went up. (I could write about other risk factors that have been reduced but you would need to read this book to understand them )
In a nutshell I am now a patient of Dr Devries and my cardiac risks have been reduced as much as possible. (Due to genetics some things such as LDL particle size can not be changed) The results speak for themselves.
This book is an easy read and clearly organized. Do yourself a favor and buy it and then challenge yourself to find a cardiologist who will work with you to run the tests and implement the program. (Versus condescendingly dismissing non traditional approaches to health)
| | Wow, Eye Opener! by R. Barone 5 Stars September 19, 2008 If you are reading this I'll assume you have a heart...and it's beating.
If this is the case you need to read this book "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About(TM):Cholesterol: The Latest Natural Treatments and Scientific Advances in One Breakthrough Program". An easy read and so informative. I plan on giving copies to all those I care about. I wish I knew this information years ago, but it's never to late to make changes and improve your heart health. Another book I highly recommend is "Reverse Heart Disease Now" by Dr. S. Sinatra not quite as easy to read but has soooooooo much information that it's worth the effort.
