Product Description
"At the turn of the century, heart disease and atherosclerosis were virtually unheard of. Today, however, they are the Western world's number one killers, with cancer running right behind. As a practitioner who has examined many people, I know that clogged arteries and poor circulation are an unfortunate fact of life for many. While mortality statistics at the turn of the century are not altogether reliable, there is always a consistent figure for deaths from heart attacks or heart disease: between 6 and 8 %. By the 1950s, that number had climbed to 30%. Today, almost 50% of all deaths in the United States and Australia are from cardiovascular disease (CVD) or coronary heart disease (CHD). What went wrong?As we shall see in this little book, the answers will surprise you."
