When a person goes to the doctor, he or she is simply asked to eat healthy food, cut down on tobacco and alcohol, and lose a few kilos around the waist. Whether or not to heed the doctor’s advice is in the hands of the individual. However, what does one really need to do to have a healthy heart?
Summary of the Book
People have always taken advice from doctors, but end up deciding for them as to whether they should follow it. Then again, is it fair to just blame the individual here? This book explores the myth about how an individual is the sole person responsible for their own health. This applies specially to heart diseases, diabetes and hypertension. It does not discuss the risk factors, but attempts to find out the causes behind them. There are questions concerning consumption of unhealthy diets, people becoming physically inactive and the increase in the use of tobacco that is discussed. The investigations reveal a lot of shocking details.
