5.0 out of 5 stars It worked for me - great book, December 20, 2005
This review is from: cut your cholesterol (Paperback)
Ater reading this book and following the advice I lost 30 pounds, my Triglycerides went from 266 to 53, my HDL went from 30 to 42 and my LDL went from 195 to 151, which totally blew my Doctor away, she said she had never seen results that good before, and without any drugs.
I now feel so much better, I have energy all day and I was able to talk to my Doctor about cholesterol with some knowledge and understanding of the subject, all because of reading this book and following the advice. I am sure it has helped me greatly reduce my risks of chd or a stroke, and has really made a difference to my life, I even bought another copy and sent it to my Mother who has similar problems.
If you have no will power maybe it won't work, but that might not help you when you have a heart attack, the time to act is now if you have these problems, I can't recommend this enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great introduction to heart disease prevention., September 28, 2004
This review is from: Cut Your Cholesterol: Featuring the Exclusive Live It Down Plan, Lose 30 Points in 12 Weeks (Paperback)
If you're new to the heart disease conversation, Dr. Katz's book is a wonderful place to start. The book is about a great deal more than just cholesterol. It's probably among the most wide-ranging of healthy heart books available, with concise descriptions of causes of heart disease beyond cholesterol (including lipoprotein(a) and homocysteine), an excellent discussion of inflammation and the metabolic syndrome, good though brief discussions of several supplements (including coenzyme Q10 for people taking statin drugs, arginine, and functional foods).

The nutritional advice (the oddly-named "Live it down plan") is a rationale and straightforward approach that is peppered with lots of easy tips and tricks to reduce heart attack risk. There's advice on dealing with stress, how to incorporate strength training into your exercise program, and an overview of medication.

The book is also beautifully illustrated in full color, one of the few heart books that has done so.
