Description

WeÕve all heard that high cholesterol is a prelude to a heart attack. But doctors and patients alike may have been misled into focusing on this single risk factor among more than a hundred others. Our guests have scoured the medical literature and concluded that we need to re-think our approach to cholesterol and heart disease.

What is the optimal diet to reduce your risk of heart disease? (And why donÕt you need to worry about the cholesterol in your breakfast eggs?) Our guests give surprisingÐbut evidence-basedÐadvice on healthy living.

One further note: The New York Times blog describes the Sydney Diet Heart Study showing more cardiovascular mortality among volunteers who consumed less saturated fat.

This Week’s Guests:

Jonny Bowden, PhD, CNS, is a nationally recognized expert on nutrition, weight loss, and health. He is the author of several best-selling titles, including The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth. His website is www.jonnybowden.com.

Stephen Sinatra, MD, FACC, is a cardiologist and educator. His Heart MD Institute (www.heartmdinstitute.com) is an educational platform focused on prevention and proactive lifestyle changes to live a healthier life. He is the author of Reverse Heart Disease Now and The Sinatra Solution. The photo is of Dr. Sinatra.

Drs. Bowden and Sinatra have joined forces to write The Great Cholesterol Myth, Why Lowering Your Cholesterol WonÕt Prevent Heart DiseaseÐand the Statin-Free Plan That Will.
