Publisher's summary

If you have coronary heart disease, this audiobook could save your life. Coronary heart disease (CHD) takes the lives of 2,000 Americans every day. But you don’t have to be one of them. If you’ve been diagnosed with CHD or suffered a heart attack, you can still live a long, heart-healthy life. Be Heart Smart shows you how.

In this definitive guide to CHD, cardiologist Waqar Khan, MD, MPH, answers your questions and gives you easy-to-follow advice for preventing heart attacks and keeping your heart in tip-top shape. It’s like having your own personal cardiologist on call.

Using real-life patient stories and the latest evidence-based science, Dr. Khan:

  • Explains what CHD is and how it affects the body
  • Explores the root causes and risk factors for CHD
  • Describes the different types of heart attacks and their warning signs
  • Walks you through the tests used to diagnose coronary problems
  • Discusses the medications prescribed to combat CHD, including their side effects
  • Reveals the latest surgical advancements in surgical and nonsurgical interventions to open clogged arteries and prevent heart attacks
  • Offers simple approaches to eating better, exercising, quitting smoking, and losing weight

Dr. Khan even includes a glossary of commonly used medical terms. Plus, he shares online resources that can help you with everything from assessing your risk level and setting health goals to cooking heart-supportive meals.

Authored in easy-to-understand language, Be Heart Smart will help you (and your loved ones) gain a better understanding of CHD and give you the knowledge you need to take charge of your heart health.
