Book Reviews of Track Your Plaque: The only heart disease prevention program that shows how to use the new heart scans to detect, track and control coronary plaque
Book Review: A must for anyone concerned about coronary artery disease!
Summary: 5 Stars
My family physician suggested that I go and have Calcium Score CT Scan. I do have a history of hypertension and a cholesterol problem. So I did and much to my surprise my Calcium Score put me at a medium risk for coronary artery disease. I was completely taken by surprise. Let me point out that I seldom eat meat and eat dairy and eggs sparingly. Furthermore, I have had an excercise program for many years. As this book points out it does not matter that you eat healthy and excercise, you could still be at risk for a heart attack. The author covers quite a lot of information which includes: what is currently known about coronary artery disease, as well as a step by step guide to preventive care so that one does not end up being a casualty. I like the philosophy that the patient needs to take responsibility for his/her health. I couldn't agree more. As I told my cardiologist, 'I appreciate and value your knowledge and experience, and know this, I take responsibility for my health'. I believe that change comes in three steps: awareness, acceptance, and then action. After the CT scan I became quite AWARE which brought up feelings of fear, despair, etc. It took a few days to get to the acceptance phase, much discussion with friends and spouse, and reading this book as well as other sources. By the time I finished reading this book, I was in the action phase. My attitude is good and the fear has been replaced with hope. Personally, I think that if the price of this book was twice or 3 times what it is, it would still be a worthwhile purchase.
