Purchase options and add-ons

In a very simple and inexpensive 3-pronged approach, you'll learn how to prevent and even reverse the arterial blockages that cause millions of heart attacks and send droves of Americans to the operating room for open heart surgery.



Coronary Heart Disease is Arterial Scurvy. In the next 24 hours, over 2,500 Americans will die from Coronary Heart Disease (CHD). The financial impact of CHD during that same 24 hours will approach $5,500,000. Based on government health statistics, over 25 million Americans are currently diagnosed with CHD and during the next 12 months over 600,000 of us will die from this disease.
STOP AMERICA'S #1 KILLER! provides overwhelming evidence -- including over 650 scientific references -- that some conditions which we now consider as risk factors for CHD:


    • all start with the depletion of arterial vitamin C levels (arterial scurvy) and

    • are often just the body's way of compensating for the weakness in arterial walls caused by arterial scurvy.

    This book also offers a protocol for preventing and reversing the arterial blockages that cause heart attacks.

    You'll also get answers to these and other questions:


      • How can cholesterol levels that are too low actually increase your risk for other debilitating and life-threatening diseases?

      • How can traditional dental procedures start a continuing process that destroys your heart and coronary arteries?

      • What's the important link between vitamin C, triglycerides and HDL?

      • What should high levels of lipoprotein(a) tell your heart doctor?

      • Which amino acid, coupled with vitamin C, stops anginal pain?

      • Which hormone transports vitamin C into arterial cells and what factors impede the hormone's production?

      • How are histamine and anti-histamine levels in the blood related to arterial plaque?

      • What is the surprising relationship of vitamin C and calcium that impacts heart health and osteoporosis?

      • How is periodontal health directly related to heart health?

      • What minerals (found in many supplements) can dramatically increase your chance of heart attack and risk of cancer?

      • Which season of the year produces the highest number of heart attacks, why, and how can you counteract the affect?

      • How can the way you eat your food have as much of an impact on heart health as what you eat?

      • What foods should you avoid and why? (Hint: It's a very short list and not like any you have ever seen -- you will probably be shocked by the foods that aren't on the list).

      • and many more.

      Top reviews from the United States

      Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2015
      In 2013 (at age 71) I experienced intermittent chest pain for months. In December of that year I saw a cardiologist who did a series of tests which indicated "multiple coronary ischemia," atherosclerosis, and an abnormal electrocardiogram. He summed it up by saying, "You are right on the verge of a heart attack." We made an appointment for me to go into the hospital in a few days for either stents or by-pass surgery (which option to be determined in the hospital with one more test).

      I went home and began researching information about alternatives to stents/by-pass. Meanwhile I ate only salads for two days and quit coffee. (Coffee seemed to intensify the chest pain). Just those simple changes helped me to feel a little better. The internet seemed to suggest viable alternatives, so I took a chance and cancelled the hospital appointment. Eventually, after much research, I settled on Dr. Levy's approach and his protocol of nutritional supplements listed in his book, Stop America's #1 Killer. Of the 33 supplements recommended I took 30 (plus a few others of my own choosing). The most important supplement was (and still is) vitamin C, which I took as ascorbic acid powder mixed 2:1 with sodium bicarbonate to make sodium ascorbate. This I took in 3 doses daily adding up to a total of 10-12 grams/day. Also important: L-lysine and L-proline and a lot of magnesium (as magnesium glycinate). And very importantly, I STOPPED taking a calcium supplement (which I had been taking for years).

      In regard to diet, I avoided milk per Dr. Levy's advice (and avoided all dairy products). And I avoided processed sugar and processed foods in general. No wheat products (gluten) and no soy. Minimal fruit (one grapefruit and one apple per day). On the plus side, lots of vegies both cooked and raw, sauerkraut, 3-4 eggs/day, lots of various nuts (no peanuts). For meat – only organic chicken and occasionally sardines. The only liquids were/are high-quality vegetable juice and lots of water (filtered). All food organic if available.

      Exercise: In this book Dr Levy devotes only two pages to physical exercise. He conservatively suggests that exercise should help. I did him a step better on this score in that I gradually worked up to fairly intense aerobics plus weightlifting, every other day. (Also a brisk walk every morning). It happens that I tested high in lead, and moderately high in mercury and cadmium. Elsewhere Dr. Levy suggested that heavy metals can be sweated out using a sauna. (I read three of his books and listened to his video lectures). I used my exercise sessions to promote maximum sweating (instead of a sauna) by dressing in layers of sweat cloths and super-heating my bathroom where I did my weightlifting.

      Dr Levy emphasizes the importance of eliminating dental toxicity. I've been lucky enough that I never had a root canal, but I had several amalgam fillings – replaced them last year with non-toxic material.

      So now I'm cured!!! The evidence?
      1 ~ Now (in a four-story apartment building) I can run many trips up and down the stairs, two steps at a time, at a relatively fast pace for 20 minutes straight with NO angina (no chest pain), and follow that up with 30 minutes of weightlifting. (In December 2013 relatively mild exercise caused chest pain.)
      2 ~ My blood work is much improved. The last time my doc wrote across the top page, "Very Good!"
      3 ~ My typical blood pressure is 100/65 and pulse 55-60.
      4 ~ I'm back to drinking coffee again – three cups, no pain.
      5 ~ I have more energy and feel better in general.

      If that is not "cured," what is? Thank you, Dr. Levy!! (Also thanks to the late Dr. Linus Pauling, and the Vitamin C Foundation, and the internet.)

      If you have heart disease, or know someone who does, READ THIS BOOK!

      Invaluable, specific advice from a very credible MD on the root causes of heart disease, and a specific, detalied supplement regimen to prevent, and actually heal, from heart disease.

      The conventional medical paradigm is incredibly good at heroic measures to save your life in extremis, but often woefully ineffective at treating the root causes of many chronic diseases like atheriosclerosis. You won't hear much about supplementation in most cardiologists' offices - I certainly didn't. But it's your life on the line - do your own research, starting with Dr. Levy.

      The book covers it's scope of work brilliantly - but it does not attempt to go into a lot of detail on more general lifestlyle factors, such as sleep, stress, exercise, diet, etc., etc. The supplementation protocol is an absolutely essential step to get your body to heal, but don't let your self-education stop there.

      There are 28 chapters describing how Vitamin C effects various things, with titles like “Infection and Vitamin C deficiency”, Obesity, Homocysteine, Smoking, etc. “and Vitamin C deficiency”. Each topic includes the conclusions of multiple studies and there are around 70 pages of references in the back if you want to look at the associated research in more detail. Some chapters mention other nutrients that were used with Vitamin C to enhance the results. The final chapter details his protocol for stopping and possibly reversing heart disease – potentially major dental work (safely remove all amalgam fillings, root cannels, replace crowns with less toxic versions), change your diet (not a whole lot on that), and take lots of supplements, starting with of course Vitamin C. The supplement protocol is basically what Linus Pauling recommended years ago, and I’ve seen other doctors recommend, so it has staying power. But this is the first time I’ve seen such extensive reasoning as to why it should work, which is important to me. The book has large print, which I liked.
      A few things I didn’t like about this otherwise great book. Chapter 5 on Cholesterol went into great detail about how good using soy lecithin PPC was at cleaning out plaque and treating atherosclerosis when combined with vitamin C. It seemed like more verbiage was devoted to this substance than anything but vitamin C itself, but it was not included with the other 30 plus supplements in his recommended protocol. Why not, when several of the supplements recommended were not even mentioned in the research related chapters, at least that I noticed? Secondly, how long would you have to be on this protocol to see measurable results (I’m sure everyone is different, but actual results on some of his patients would have really been nice). Third, I have read elsewhere that excess vitamin C can cause Kidney stones, which I would like to avoid. He doesn’t mention this risk factor at all, or how to overcome it, or debunk it as a myth, so I’m left wondering how safe high doses of vitamin C are. Finally, the paper used is of very poor quality, so I didn’t dare use a highlighter. But many of the sentences I would have highlighted he put in the margins in bold as Exhibits (see Exhibit 42). Despite these failings, I recommend the book.

      Lots of research went into making this book; is full of references to research articles with every single claim.
      I started taking vitamin C several times daily after getting this book. I believe this has helped me quite a bit, with my skin, my gums, and my heart. I was having long drawn out tachycardia episodes every week for months. And I haven't had a single full blown episode. I am hoping this continues
