cardiology and medicine. His breakthrough work on identifying early
deposition of atherosclerosis has revolutionized how we prevent
heart disease. In this fascinating book, Dr. Agatston takes us on a
whirlwind tour exploring the complicated mechanisms and
consequences of our dietary choices. Our current diet and related
obesity are the leading cause for risk of heart disease. What do we
do about it? Dr. Agatston, a leading preventive cardiology
clinician and scientist, gives us the prescription for how we can
detect the early signs of disease years sooner, and how we can
change our health outcomes by changing our diets. I strongly
recommend his book to all seeking the latest science of weight loss
in an easy-to-follow plan that will help people like me achieve a
healthy weight, enjoy better health, and ultimately reduce the risk
of the number one killer disease in the U.S.: heart disease.”
