Heart disease is the number-one killer in the United States. Despite the latest advances in treatment, when it comes to your heart, top experts agree: prevention is the best medicine. The good news is that it’s never too late — or too early — to lower your risk of heart attack and stroke. And it doesn’t have to be complicated.

Based on the latest research and decades of clinical experience from 30+ cardiologists and other experts at the world-renowned Mayo Clinic, this book encourages a proactive, holistic approach that focuses on making positive changes before the appearance of heart disease. It breaks down the latest expertise — and how to tell fact from fiction — on key factors such as nutrition, exercise, stress management, the newest medications and even how sleep affects heart health. ​Full-color illustrations and infographics and an airy design with text call-outs help create an appealing, trade-oriented reading experience.
