Synopsis
Your H (homocysteine) level is the single most important statistic you need to know in order to determine how healthy you are and how long you will live. Your H level is now widely understood to be a greater risk factor for heart disease than cholesterol. Homocysteine expert Dr James Braly has shown that a high H score is a major risk factor for cancer, arthritis and even obesity. In this accessible book Dr Braly and leading nutritionist Patrick Holford show you how to assess your H level and suggest 10 remarkably simple changes to your diet and your lifestyle that will lower your score and dramatically cut your risk of ever having cancer, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis and many more serious ailments. Learn how to: test your homocysteine levels; reduce your risk of disease; slow down the ageing process; improve your health; radically increase your life expectancy

Customer Reviews

If you want to be healthy read this book
This is an excellent book, it tackles a complicated topic simply. It is very interesting and an imperative read if you want to get to grips with your own health.

Jury is still out on this one!
We bought this book , hoping for good sensible advice , which we got . The main drawback to this book is that you need to spend quite a bit of money on Testing via a private laboratory in order to make the purchase of the hard to find , very expensive vitamin formulas worthwhile. Things may change if more NHS Testing for homocysteine levels becomes available , which would make the purchase of such vitamin and mineral supplements more worthwhile ,as you could easily see they were (or were not) of benefit to your health.
All other advice is pretty sound and very well explained and reasonably easy to follow.
