Beat the Heart Attack Gene: The Revolutionary Plan is a personalized guide that aims to prevent heart disease, which is the leading cause of death in the United States. Written by renowned cardiovascu...lar specialists Dr. Bradley Bale and Amy Doneen, ARNP, this book presents a new model for understanding and preventing heart disease.
One of the key messages in this book is that controlling cholesterol and blood pressure alone may not be enough to prevent heart attacks. The authors identify three different genetic types of cholesterol profiles and tailor treatments for each type, using their cutting-edge Bale/Doneen Method, which is an evidence-based medical treatment plan.
The book includes easy quizzes and self-tests that help readers determine their cholesterol genotype, as well as providing advice on how to apply this knowledge through individualized lifestyle advice. For heart attack and stroke survivors, the Bale/Doneen Method also helps prevent recurrences by identifying and treating what's triggering the patient's disease, which is a crucial step that many cardiologists neglect.
One of the most intriguing aspects of Beat the Heart Attack Gene is its focus on the hidden causes of heart attacks. While most people associate heart attacks with blood clots in the arteries, the authors posit that inflammation plays a major role in heart disease. Therefore, they recommend early prevention methods that focus on reducing inflammation in the body.
The book also addresses major red flags for heart attack and stroke risk, including gum disease, which many people don't realize is linked to heart disease. The authors also discuss the genes that increase cardiovascular risk as much as smoking, and they recommend the best and worst supplements and foods for your heart.
Finally, Beat the Heart Attack Gene offers 10 surprising ways to prevent heart attacks, which include tips on how to reduce stress, get better sleep, and maintain a healthy weight.
Overall, this book is a comprehensive guide to preventing heart disease that draws on the authors' decades of experience in cardiovascular medicine. By identifying the hidden causes of heart attacks and tailoring treatments to each person's individual genetic profile, the authors offer a new approach to preventing heart disease that could save many lives.
