"From a leading internal medicine doctor on the f⁵ront lines of cardiac research, comes a heart disease program designed exclusively for a woman's body, targeting the number one killer of women"--,Provided by publisher.

"Heart disease remains the number one killer of women, with one in four receiving a diagnosis in her lifetime. And the problem is only getting worse. Mark Menolascino, MD, has been on the front lines of cardiac research for most of his life, running an acclaimed clinic where he takes a holistic approach to reversing disease. In [this book], Dr. Menolascino reveals the many ways our hearts are the pathway to overall health. While obesity, cholesterol, blood pressure, stress, and poor diet are classic risk factors for heart disease, symptoms manifest differently in women's bodies and can go misdiagnosed for years. These include depresssion, anxiety and panic attacks, poor sleep, and widespread pain, and can be masked during pregnancy, postpregnancy, and menopause only to appear with great force later in life. Featuring the latest research on gut, brain, and hormone health and including answers to the most pressing questions, Heart Solution for Women finally gives us the tools to succeed, feel great in our bodies, and add years to our lives."--Jacket.
