No More Heart Disease: How Nitric Oxide Can Prevent--Even Reverse--Heart Disease and Strokes

by Louis Ignarro (Author), Louis Ignarro (Author)

Synopsis

Dr. Louis Ignarro discovered lithe molecule of cardiovascular health - Nitric Oxide (NO) - which is produced naturally by the human body and serves as a regulator of blood pressure to help prevent blood clots. The problem is that many people find this out too late, going through life without understanding that this all-important molecule is the difference between healthy living and a heart attack. With all the focus on new diets, Dr. Ignarro's research is all the more vital. In an easy-to-follow plan - which discusses NO friendly foods and informs about supplements to stimulate NO production, he lays out a regimen that age-proofs the cardiovascular system, keeping it clean and the blood vessels strong. The Say Yes to NO program allows readers to tap into the body's own cardiovascular drug and discover that the littlest molecule can make a tremendous difference.

Media Reviews
The discovery of Nitric Oxide by Lou Ignarro, and the role that it plays in reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, is as important as the discovery of penicillin and insulin. --David Heber, M.D., Ph.D., Director, UCLA Center for Human Nutrition
