    I originally got this book from the library and loved it so much decided I needed to own it
    I originally got this book from the library and loved it so much decided I needed to own it. Having worked on health care teams for many years, I am pretty familiar with the topic, but I don’t know everything and found this book very useful.. I thought Dr. Kahn did an excellent job of providing the pertinent information in a way that anyone could understand regardless of whether they have had any health care experience. He divides the book into two parts: Whole Heart Facts and Whole Heart Prescriptions. The first part provides information on the various body systems and their role in the development of heart disease. He provides enough information for basic understanding in a very readable format, using patient examples that the reader might relate to. He also discusses drugs and surgery, lifestyle habits, medical tests, etc. In the second part, he provides prescriptions to address what actions an individual would best take to manage their heart health, placing the individual in the ‘control seat,’ with the understanding that making changes can be very difficult and small steps forward make it more do-able. I found it very readable and excellent at integrating traditional medicine with alternative medicine. He is up-to-date with the latest research in both of these areas. For those who want to take an active role in their heart health, this book guides the way in working with their physician, making lifestyle changes, and making decisions.

    Purchased after aortic calcification diagnosis
    VERY GOOD BOOK if you are wholistically inclined.You need more than a statin to really take care of your heart.I’ve always eaten very well, organic etc, but Dr Kahn will make a vegan out of me yet….Dont hesitate to buy if vegetarianism turns you off, there is much more to this book.

    A must have Heart Health Guide
    I ordered “The Whole Heart Solution” by Joel  K Kahn after flipping through a few pages in Barnes&Nobles. 5 minutes was all it took to realize that the book holds immense value for those who want to take steps towards a healthy heart. The book is divided in two parts.  The first part talks about the heart related facts, functions, importance, what usually goes wrong and how easily. Part two offers simple and easily actionable recommendations in logically organized chapters to halt and reverse heart conditions.Though the real value of the book is in part two, it is part one which helps create a sense of urgency and forces the reader to seriously follow the prescriptions given. One thing which the book might have done without is talking about  brand names of mixers and blenders (chapter 7), simply to  avoid any unnecessary perceptions of the author having an interest in these companies.My personal experience:The day I read this book, I decided to improve the eating habits of my family. As a start, I offered veg noodle soup to my kids. It was shocking to see the kids making a fuss about the “green stuff” in their soup. Was an eye opener for me.Post that, we have been following various suggestions in the book and have seen definite improvements in our eating habits, activity level and general well being. The few things we have adopted in the last 3 months:A. Stopped getting processed canned food and replaced them with fresh fruits and vegetables.B. Increased juice intake – carrot,  pomegranate, orange are some of our favorite.C. Cut down on eating out.D. Started practicing regular yoga. Sun salutation is our favorite. We use “Simply yoga” ios app.E. Got into the practice of finishing our dinner by 7 pm max.  (Kitchen closed after 8 pm).These steps seem to be working for us.  I have read the book cover to cover and keep going back to it when I see my resolve getting diluted.Thank You Dr Joel. 🙂

    Excellent, updated perspective on preventing/reversing heart disease.
    Everyone should read this book. My only question (to the author): On page 54 and 55 regarding “Assess Your Health At Home”? A person can’t help if she is postmenopausal and over 55. Then add in hypertension and you score a total of 6 points. Add in a family history of hypertension and you score another 2 points. You say that a person should see their health care provider if the score is 6 or higher. Not much the Doc can do about age and postmenopausal status or family history. All other risk factors being negative–not much a Doc can do, especially since insurance/Medicare won’t pay for these recommended diagnostic tests (except for ones that really don’t tell you much anyway). Otherwise, a great book that should motivate anyone who isn’t physically active and who has poor dietary habits.

    This book can change your life if you let it happen!
    If you decide to buy this book I would suggest reading a few pages at a time. The first 60 pages or so are a lead up into the real stuff. If you are struggling with really wanting to take care of your body and mind then this book is for you. If you are a husband and wife or the like I would suggest a book for each or you. Lifestyles are such today that it’s difficult to share books like this one and the book usually ends up on the shelf for another day, so to speak. As you read, use a highlighter to mark the passages you want to do a quick review on as time passes.

    Everything the doctor doesn’t tell you that you absolutely need to know
    Fantastic. Everything you’d expect your cardiologist to inform you of but doesn’t. Every person with even mild heart disease should have this book as well as people with family histories of heart disease. Wish I had been given it many years ago with the statin meds instead of finding it online after being diagnosed with congestive heart failure.

    This is a great book. I came across references to this in an online article and am not disappointed. Very much for you if you are prepared to consider a whole life approach to things like high blood pressure etc. An easy read without dumbing down the message or information. Looking forward to getting healthier. Not just for those of us who already have a health issue. The advice would be great for any age and valuable if you want to avoid inviting heart conditions into your life at a later stage!

    A Prescription for Heart Health: Joel K. Kahn’s Life-Changing Guide.How did the book make me feel/think?​In a world where our hearts bear the brunt of our fast-paced, meat-centric lifestyles, Dr. Joel K. Kahn emerges as the beacon of hope we desperately need. In his groundbreaking book, “Your Whole Heart Solution,” Kahn doesn’t just offer advice – he prescribes a roadmap to a healthier heart and a longer life.With 75 simple prescriptions that won’t break the bank, Kahn lays out a blueprint for heart health that’s accessible to everyone. From the humble kale to the mighty beet, he champions the power of plant-based nutrition as the key to unlocking vitality and longevity.For readers like me, who have felt the terrifying grip of a stroke, Kahn’s words carry an even greater weight. As I navigate the aftermath of my own health scare, his candid guidance serves as a lifeline, reminding me the choices I make on my plate can determine not just the quality of my days, but the quantity of them too.Gone are the days of resigned acceptance to a lifetime of pill-popping. With each prescription embraced, I’m reclaiming control over my health, inching closer to a future where the only screams I hear are of joy, not of medical emergencies.At 63 years young, I’m not just reading Kahn’s book – I’m living it. With every leafy green and every mindful bite, I’m investing in another 30 years or more of heart-healthy bliss. And as I turn the page to prescription number four, I do so with gratitude, knowing that with Kahn’s guidance, every day is a chance to thrive, not just survive.WRITTEN: 10 March 2024
