AN EXCELLENT READ FROM A DOCTOR KNOWN FOR WISE HEALTH PRACTICES

IN A NUTSHELL: "Optimum Health" by Stephen Sinatra, M.D., is an very readable examination of our western lifestyle in search of the root causes of some of the most persistent and problematic ailments we face. Dr. Sinatra analyzes, with the use of empirical evidence and recent medical research, some of the ways that specific behaviorial factors may cause or prevent health problems in humans. More importantly, he outlines what steps we can take to help insure better health for ourselves. Most importantly these are steps we can take without major expenses are changes that are difficult to maintain. BUT -- FORTUNATELY THERE IS MORE -- LOTS MORE: LIKE MANY OF DR. SINATRA'S BOOKS MUCH IS MADE ABOUT FOOD! We are what we eat, and Dr. Sinatra never seems to lose sight of that fact. In many of his books, including this one, he details a healthy diet, though in this book he explains why it is healthy more than in some of his other volumes, which leads him into a discussion of Vitamins, minerals, herbs, and supplements and more. Dr. Sinatra takes hold of specific issues, like "good fat" and "bad fat", and makes a chapter about it, clarifying the 'whats-what' about fats -- very critical to our health that we understand this stuff. He also suggests specific modifications in diet, excercise and specific nutrition, that may have health benefits, without sacrifice. VITAMINS - MINERALS - CO-ENZYME Q10 - AMINO ACIDS - HERBS - : The above are just a few examples of the types of topics that are examined with specific applications to our better health in mind. It is particularly satisfying to get this type of information and advice from a cardiologist trained in western allopathic medicine, just like most doctors in this country. In essence, if Dr. Sinatra can utilize 'blended medicine' in his pr Dr. Sinatra delves into the means by which specific ailments, such as arthritis, heart disease, high cholesterol and others, can be treated with foods, nutritional supplements and a change in diet. He also includes a lucid description of Vitamins, Minerals and other supplements, from the standpoint of their use for maintaining or improving human health. BOTTOM LINE: Real good stuff and easily read and enjoyed by almost anybody. Dr. Sinatra has written a number books in the field that include, "Naturally lowering your blood pressure - in just 6 weeks" , and others. I have read, "How To Lower Your Blood Pressure In 6 Weeks" - and it has helped me to safely utilize some non-drug alternatives to augment the extensive use of anti-hypertension drugs that I have lived with for decades. This book is similar, but it has a much broader focus, making it more important and useful to a greater number of people.

How to stay healthy and live longer.

Dr. Stephen Sinatra is a board-certified cardiologist who has thoroughly researched the true causes of the diseases which plague modern Americans, including various forms of heart disease plus cancer and various degenerative diseases. He has discovered that most of these diseases are caused by faulty eating habits and lack of certain essential nutrients. This excellent book discusses these and other factors in highly-readable terms. If you read this book and implement the simple factors which it recommends you can improve your health and add healthy years to your life. That seems very worthwhile to me. I hope that it does to you too.
