A board-certified cardiologist reveals why many tests, pills, and surgeries are unnecessary—and offers simpler ways to keep your heart healthy and strong.

Clinical studies show that cardiovascular intervention does not prevent heart attacks or prolong life in stable patients with coronary artery disease—so why are more than 1.5 million angioplasties and coronary bypass surgeries done annually in the United States alone?

In The Great American Heart Hoax, esteemed cardiologist Michael Ozner, MD, reveals groundbreaking truths about what actually helps prevent and reverse heart disease and what isn’t worth the money or risk. With enlightening facts about the billion-dollar cardiovascular intervention industry, Ozner shows that while a minority of patients may benefit from stents or surgery, the majority can employ much simpler methods, such as diet, exercise, and medical therapy. Most important, The Great American Heart Hoax provides a ten-step program to improve your heart health and reduce your risk of heart disease.
