The essential heart book for women

In The Essential Heart Book for Women, Morris Notelovitz, M.D., Ph. D., shows women how to prevent and treat heart disease, based on the latest medical research and studies done on women (studies of this kind have traditionally been done on men). The Essential Heart Book for Women educates women about the causes of heart disease, and explains why women's risk factors are different from men's. It informs women how to work with their doctors to obtain woman-specific screening and diagnostic tests, and provides a complete, easy-to-follow lifestyle program of diet, exercise, and stress reduction that can work to prevent heart disease and high blood pressure.
