Reseña del editor:

First released in 1996, the original Cholesterol Cures has sold more than 50,000 copies. Now the experts at Prevention magazine have completely revised and updated this perennial bestseller. The need for a revision was clear; on May 15, the National Institute of Health in America released major new cholesterol guidelines, which substantially raise the number of Americans being treated for high cholesterol by dietary means from about 52 million to about 65 million. The new Cholesterol Cures explains these new guidelines and outlines several other breakthrough studies in cholesterol research. In addition, the book contains all-new sections on vitamins and herbs - like niacin, a powerful B vitamin; arginine, an amino acid, and guggul, a herb - that work as well as cholesterol-lowering statin druge. Also, the latest research even indicates that chocolate, nuts, peanut butter, and even apple pie are not "allowed" they can actually benefit heart health. Like the original, this book is an A-Z encyclopaedia of more than 325 all-natural remedies for high cholesterol, including alcohol, walnuts, the Mediterranean diet, and yoga. Cholesterol Cures also contains an updated, nutritionist-approved menu plan that will help readers cut their cholesterol 30 points in 30 days. Complete with a list of the fat and cholesterol contents in 500 foods, this book is a must for the 1 out of 5 of the population with high blood cholesterol levels.
