"This pioneering book by Dr. John A. McDougall, founder of the nationally renowned McDougall Program, addresses ways to combat the number one killer of Americans today - heart disease. At St. Helena Hospital in the Napa Valley of California, Dr. McDougall teaches cardiac patients a revolutionary new way of living that frees them from fear of future heart attacks and allows them to lead healthy lives. Now he offers readers the same breakthrough advice that thousands of people have learned through his clinical practice." "Combining step-by-step diet, exercise, and lifestyle recommendations, it is designed to bring about dramatic health improvements in less than two weeks. A lifesaver for patients who have already suffered a heart attack or been diagnosed with heart disease, it is equally valuable as an authoritative guide to prevention."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Dr. Mehmet Oz, celebrated heart surgeon and co-founder of the Complementary Care Center at New York's Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital, is spearheading the health-care revolution that is yielding powerful new healing tools that will forever change the way we think of medicine. In this ground-breaking book, he describes his pioneering work--combining cutting-edge Western medicine with such Eastern techniques as acupuncture and chi-gong, as well as such controversial therapies as hypnosis, music, massage, reflexology, aromatherapy, and energy healing. The inspiring and affecting stories of his patients are the heart of this book--from the extraordinary discipline of Frank Torre, who used his professional sports training to "psych" himself into healing after heart transplant surgery, to the "impossible" recovery of blues great Johnny Copeland, who was roused from a seemingly impenetrable coma through the force of his own music. In recounting his patients' experiences, Dr. Oz forges a blueprint for the radical new medicine of the next millennium--drawing on the best from Eastern and Western therapies and empowering patients to become partners with doctors in promoting their own recovery.

Imagine that the New York Times tomorrow released some amazing news. A health treatment has been discovered that literally cures most forms of heart disease. But not just that. This treatment has a dramatic impact on most of the diseases Westerners face, including cancer, obesity, autoimmune diseases, diabetes, osteoporosis, Alzheimer's, and many many others. And this treatment is so inexpensive to administer that two-thirds of the medical establishment can be shut down as no longer serving any useful function. It's really too much to believe, isn't it? But there's more. This treatment has miraculous implications for the environment. By applying this treatment, we can eliminate the largest source of global warming, and dramatically reduce the waste that is polluting our water supply. We'll also dramatically improve the health and animal population of our oceans and seas. And there's more. By applying this treatment, we'll dramatically increase the supply of arable land, lowering the cost food and allowing us to feed everyone on this planet. Starvation can become a thing of the past. And one last thing. This treatment also has enormous moral implications, allowing us to eliminate almost all of the pain and suffering we are inflicting on the animals, most of which is hidden away from view, but is morally repulsive to anyone exposed to this suffering. Now what if I told you that we don't have to wait for tomorrow's New York Times, that this treatment has been found, and that the amount of scientific data supporting the claims I just made is overwhelming. The "miracle" treatment is simple. It's eating a whole grain, plant-based diet. Skeptical? I'm not surprised. But by the end of this book you'll be exposed to the overwhelming amount of evidence that supports every claim made above. You'll also get to hear the counterarguments made by skeptics and you'll get to decide for yourself whether these claims are true. It's my hope that by the end of this book you'll be convinced and join our movement. You may just save your life and the planet in the bargain. This revolutionary book is Healthy Eating -- Healthy World: Unleashing the Power of Plant-based Nutrition by J. Morris Hicks, and it is the book that finally tackles all compelling reasons for adopting a plant-based diet -- from the environment to solving the world's hunger crisis. Additionally, T. Colin Campbell, acclaimed author of the bestselling book The China Study, provides a riveting foreword to Healthy Eating -- Healthy World. After reading this book, it'll be nearly impossible to ignore the truth: people were not meant to eat animals or animal products, and the time has come to stop.

In what promises to be the trial of the century, attorney-turned-author James Henderson indicts the medical/industrial cartel now dominating modern drug-based medicine for trading the health of millions of Americans for dollars. In the brilliant and intriguing setting of a jury trial the author enrolls We the People of America into a vast national jury to pass judgment on modern pharmaceutical medicine for cunningly treating chronic degenerative diseases like heart disease, cancer, and diabetesAmericas leading killersby merely seeking to manage the symptoms of these diseases, not even attempting to cure them. Drug-based medicine has become big business. It thrives on sickness. It dares not cure the patient or the money pipe-line dries up. The price tag? Overt two trillion dollars annually and climbing. And America is getting sicker by the day. Author James Henderson offers the proven testimonies of eminent nutritional physicians and medical geniuses who have turned their backs on this criminal monopoly. These brave souls have risked their careers to blow the whistle on the drugging of America. In this court of public opinion, if we, the jury, cannot discern the truth, what hope is there for justice? Or for medical freedom in America? Will We the People make a decision before its too late? Read Indicted! and decide for yourself.
