Product Overview
This fascinating new book, Cholesterol Control Without Diet! The Niacin Solution, could revolutionize the treatment and lifestyles of millions of Americans who struggle with abnormal cholesterol levels, are at risk of heart attack and stroke, and think they must follow an unappetizing, rigid diet. Sound too good to be true? Read on!
Author William B. Parsons Jr., MD explains that diet is a weak and often ineffective method for controlling cholesterol levels. He adds that niacin, the drug whose use for cholesterol control he pioneered more than 40 years ago, controls cholesterol in the presence of an ordinary American diet.
Dr. Parsons wisely wrote this book for both the general public and doctors. It tells why bad and good cholesterol fractions are more important than the total cholesterol number. He teaches that niacin is the only drug that reduces bad cholesterol, raises good cholesterol, lowers triglycerides, and favorably changes other components of blood cholesterol. No other drug does all these things -- or even the first two!
"Our goal," says Dr. Parsons, "is to allow each person to live as one who has never had a heart attack, not as a heart attack survivor. There is a world of difference!"
But for anyone who has already had a heart attack, stroke, or other artery-blocking complication, the book teaches a special set of guidelines which can reduce present cholesterol deposits in arteries while retarding new ones.
According to latest estimates, 54 million Americans have cholesterol patterns that should be treated.
Cholesterol Control Without Diet! The Niacin Solution offers an innovative, affordable, and proven approach to their problems.
