Beyond Cholesterol: 7 Life-Saving Heart Disease Tests That Your Doctor May Not Give You
Author: Julius Torelli
The latest scientific research has revealed that cholesterol levels are not the definitive indicator of heart disease risk. In fact, there are six new lab tests and a CT scan that can reveal much about the state of your heart and cardiovascular system. Dr. Torelli explains what the tests are, what they reveal, and how to get them. He also includes information on women’s heart health, and dietary and lifestyle factors that impact cardiovascular disease.
Beyond Cholesterol includes information on:
*C-Reactive Protein
*Fibrinogen
*Homocysteine
*Fasting Insulin
*Ferritin
*Lipoprotein(a)
*Calcium Heart Scan
Cholesterol tests are valuable but they don’t tell the whole story. This book explains how to get the most important information needed to determine how healthy your heart is and to stop heart disease in its tracks.
Library Journal
By now, everyone concerned with heart health knows to pay attention to his or her blood cholesterol levels. But recent research indicates that cholesterol levels alone are not the best predictors of heart disease-a host of other factors play a part in its development. Cardiologist Torelli (Integrative Cardiology Ctr., High Point, NC) is well positioned to explain this research and its implications for lay readers. After a clear, concise overview of heart disease, the author discusses seven other tests that provide information about one's heart health: C-reactive protein, fibrinogen, homocysteine, fasting insulin, ferritin, lipoprotein(a), and a calcium heart scan. He discusses who should take these tests, any controversies about their validity, and what medications or lifestyle changes one should consider based on the results. A glossary, bibliography, and list of useful web sites are included. As one of the few books to focus solely on additional predictors of heart health, this is highly recommended for public and consumer health libraries.-Eris Weaver, Cotati, CA Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
