About This Item

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, our leading cause of death, is primarily driven by LDL cholesterol. With LDL, lower numbers are always better - there doesn't seem to be a floor beneath which additional reductions stop paying off in terms of lowered risk for heart attack, stroke, or sudden death. Statin drugs aren't prescribed more widely because they carry certain downsides (such as a heightened risk of diabetes), meaning their use is reserved for cases where the advantages outweigh the potential harms. But suppose there were safe, easy, side-effect-free actions we could take daily - like eating specific foods - to bring cholesterol down? Since there'd be no risk involved, everyone could benefit from incorporating them to push LDL as low as possible, whether or not they're currently taking medication. That's the focus of this book. Written by Michael Greger, M.D. FACLM - founder of NutritionFacts.org and New York Times bestselling author of How Not to Die, How Not to Diet, and How Not to Age - together with Kristine Dennis, PhD, MPH, this guide first walks through the pros and cons of statin medications and who should be taking them. It then moves into the details of the most well-supported dietary approach for lowering LDL, which combines cutting out cholesterol-raising foods with adding a group of foods that actively draw excess cholesterol out of the body. Drs. Greger and Dennis go on to broaden this food group by suggesting inventive ways to work in every known food and safe supplement demonstrated to reduce LDL by a minimum of 10 mg/dL (0.26 mmol/L). The book wraps up with concrete steps for achieving the greatest possible drop in LDL, including recipes like Dr. Greger's Portfolio Plus Powder, meant to be sprinkled over meals.
