Publisher description
Foreward by Meredith Vieira, Co-host of The View.
Over 40% of all women will die of cardiovascular disease. This is a startling statistic, one that surprises most people -- and, unfortunately, many doctors, as well. In this ground-breaking new book, Dr. Barbara Roberts explains the real-life effects of the grim statistics on women's heart disease and provides a common sense guide to treatment and reducing risk.
Dr. Roberts, a board certified cardiologist and Director of the Women's Cardiac Center at the Miriam Hospital in Providence, Rhode Island, shows how differences in symptoms, testing, treatment, and attitudes regarding female vs. male heart disease have resulted in inordinate illness and death amongst women. She then presents a clear, authoritative roadmap for readers to improve their cardiac health. By explaining how to improve your cardiac health and, where necessary, find the best treatment possible, Dr. Roberts provides a practical resource for women concerned about the terrifying statistics. This book is a wakeup call for women and those who care about them
