At one time heart disease was a death sentence. By the middle of the 20th century, it was killing millions, and, as with the Black Death centuries before, physicians stood helpless.

A humorous and informative story about preparing for an open heart surgical procedure. While many people have questions about how to prepare for open heart surgery, very few surgeons have had the surgery themselves to explain what really happens to a patient's body during and after surgery.

A decade after World War II, there was still no such thing as open-heart surgery, and yet half a million Americans were dying from heart disease every year.

The fact is that heart disease can be produced with diets that are completely void of cholesterol, so chasing after this one "fat" element alone will not reverse the condition. People in Denmark, Switzerland, and Finland eat far more butterfat than we do here in the States, and yet have much less heart disease than we do in America. People in parts of Africa eat as much as 60 to 65 percent of their calories from butterfat. The natural conclusion would be that it is not cholesterol alone that is the problem here, but rather the lack of the other nutrients needed to utilize it.

Herzerkrankungen sind die häufigste Todesursache bei Frauen. Daher ist die Tatsache, dass kardiologische Medizin hauptsächlich auf Forschung an Männern beruht, alarmierend!

Die renommierte Medizinerin Angela Maas klärt über die Besonderheiten des weiblichen Herzkreislaufs auf.

La diabetes es equivalente a historias de luchas. Y la primera lucha fue procesar el hecho de que usted está en la etapa prediabética. Nunca es fácil.

When I graduated from medical school, a third of heart attack victims died at home or in the hospital. Heart rhythm disorders were killing or crippling hundreds of thousands of Americans every year. Severe heart failure was a death sentence. Preventive cardiology was practically unknown: the significance of high cholesterol was being debated, 50 percent of adults were smoking cigarettes, and high blood pressure was usually undetected and often poorly controlled. All of this changed for the better - much better - during the 47 years I practiced medicine and cardiology.
