life changing/saving

Dr. Baum writes in a clear, concise way us laymen can understand. His message is an eye opener for everyone, not just those with heart disease. We could all be future victims and never know it. Here's what we can do to prevent heart disease right now. Listen with your heart to a book written by a doctor with a heart.

BRAVO DR. BAUM! EDUCATIONAL YET UNDERSTANDABLE

As a person with a family history of heart disease I found Dr. Baum's book very informative. It gave me answers to many questions, but most importantly it gave me hope. I appreciate his approach to heart disease, integrating conventional medicine with complementary medicine. I have finally found a book that is understandable and truly makes sense. This book should be read by all, with or without heart disease.

An expedition to the understanding and care of the heart !!!

I have just finished reading The Total Guide to a Healthy Heart by Dr. Seth Baum,which is one of the most informative, brilliantly written books about the heart and how it functions. As a member of a family which has been prone to heart disease, this book gives me great hope and understanding. Written in an engaging style, I enjoyed the personal level on which it's written and found the stories about Dr. Baum's patients extremely interesting. Dr. Baum's approach to medicine, which combines traditional and alternative treatments, his attention to a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle, will impact anyone who reads "The Total Guide To A Healthy Heart." Kudos to him!!!

outstanding and informative guide for overall heart health

The Total Guide to a Healthy Heart is an outstanding and informative account combining both conventional and alternative approaches to preventing and reversing heart disease. It is written by one of the few triple board-certified Cardiologists in the country. Dr.Baum is a graduate of Columbia Medical School who has extensive clinical experience in the field of integrative cardiology. In my opinion it's the first book of its kind that gives the reader fluency in the language of Cardiology,enabling them to understand both conventional and complementaly approaches to heart disease.

Comprehensive, UNDERSTANDABLE, introduction to heart.

Was particularly impressed with the training - triple board certified graduate of Columbia University School of Medicine- and clinical experience the author has had in traditional cardiology. He has given the reader the unique opportunity to become fluent in the language of the heart. After reading this book I feel I have had a knowledgeable, but personal guide lead me thru the up until now mysterious center of my being, my heart. My only regret is that I do not live close enough to become a patient at his center and under his care. This book is readable, UNDERSTANDBLE, and very informative. I now feel able to be an advocate of my own health care. Thankyou Dr Baum!
