LIFESAVING INFORMATION FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE BESTSELLING DON'T EAT YOUR HEART OUT COOKBOOK Joe Piscatella shows you how to make the critical lifestyle choices that can spell the difference between coronary disaster and a long, healthy, productive, life. What health professionals say: "If Choices for a Healthy Heart is as widely read as it deserves to be, cardiovascular surgeons may see fewer patients with coronary heart disease." -Denton A. Cooley, M.D., Surgeon in Chief, the Texas Heart Institute "Every so often a book is written that makes such an immediate and significant contribution to health and fitness that it becomes a standard. What The Complete Book of Running did for running and Type A Behavior did for stress, CHOICES has done for cardiac health. --Barry A. Franklin, Ph.D., Director of Cardiac Rehabilitation at William Beaumont Hospital, Royal Oak, Michigan "This is the single best source of practical information on cardiac health. By covering all of the key aspects of lifestyle-diet, exercise, stress, smoking, and attitude, Mr. Piscatella has created an understandable 'how-to' guide for living a healthy life. This book is a must for professionals, heart patients, and people concerned with prevention." --Victor A. Froelicher, M.D., Co-Editor, The Journal of Cardiac Rehabilitation, Chief of Cardiology, Long Beach V.A. Medical Center, Long Beach, California
