good info
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This book helped me drive down ldl from 152 to 95 in about 5 weeks. I reccomend it for anyone who would like to address their cholesterol situation without using prescription drugs.
Loving it!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I am still reading this book. It is really helpful to “understand and conquer” this cholesterol issue.
Very Disappointed With This Purchase
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
If you have searched the net for cholesterol or read even one book on the subject, you will be wasting your money here.
I would highly recommend – “Best Choices From the Peoples Pharmacy”. The chapter on cholesterol is worth the price of the book. And there are several other chapters – including high blood pressure. Buy this book instead.
IT NEVER CAME
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
I ORDERED THIS BOOK ON FEB 19. AMAZON SAID IT WOULD COME BY FEB 25TH. THE TRUE OF THE MATTER IS THAT IT NEVER ARRIVED & I HAVE NO WAY TO CLAIM IT.
POOR QUALITY SERVICE (OR IT MIGHT BE STOLEN FROM THE COURIER?)
A sensible, balance approach to a healthy heart.
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
As a former Health and Science Editor for American Medical News, I can heartily recommend “What Your Doctor May Not Tell You about Cholesterol.” Dr. Devries offers a wonderful array of information and advice in plain English — from what to eat and how to exercise to how to understand medical test results and work with your doctor.
One of the best features of this book is the way it merges traditional medicine with alternative approaches. This book does not present a lecture from a know-it-all conservative, traditional doctor or a treatise from a fringe physician on how health food and yoga will save your life. Instead, this book presents a balanced, reasonable approach to strong hearts and healthy lives by a traditionally trained physician who is open to new ideas, as long as they are proven and sensible. Dr. Devries integrates the best of both worlds, traditional and alternative.
Another appealing feature is the fact that some sections and chapters are clearly aimed at those who just want a simple explanation, while other sections and chapters provide detailed information backed up by rigorous research and thoughtful medical expertise for those who want to understand the science behind the suggestions.
Everyone should be as fortunate to have Dr. Devries as his or her personal doctor. The next best thing would be to read his book…and take it to heart.
Five stars for Devies’ book
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Dr. Devries did an excellent work in presenting medical research on heart disease and cholesterol in an easy read fashion for the lay person. The manner in which Dr. Devries writes makes heart disease and cholesterol a “a no brainer” to understand is superb. Dr.Devries has been my health coach for the past 4 years. His understanding of the subject has made the world of difference in my understanding my own health. Through his methods, my blood pressure and cholesterol levels are closely monitored and controlled. I am very grateful for his medical care and expertise which is now offered to the world through this book.
Not Natural!
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
This book is crap (my apologies for the bluntness). I was very disappointed that I wasted my money. I was looking for a natural, nutritional (and exercise) approach for treating borderline high cholesterol. What this book pushes are a lot of drugs. Dietary “supplements” are not natural. They are not nutritionally complete nor part of a healthy diet. Cholesterol drugs are certainly not natural. Eating avocados is natural. Cutting fat and processed foods is natural. I was very disappointed that there was nothing here that I could use. I purchased 5 other cholesterol books at the same time as this one and they were all better suited to a natural, nutritional approach to managing cholesterol.
Good book
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
The book is good, but there’s not enough information on it. I was specifically looking for info. on silent heart attacks and that’s not even mentioned. At 6.99 the price was perfect.

This is excellent reading for health care professionals as well as people who are not in the medical profession. It gives a great understanding and motivates the individual to keep healthy. I have given 14 books to my friends as gifts.
Remarkable ,Authentic , Healing…Prevention Oriented.
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
A REMARKABLE guide for prevention and personal empowerment! Finally a source which covers a wealthy spectrum of heart healthy directives and wisdom embracing the most timely and best of Integrative Medicine.
DR. Devries presents valuable heart healthy information on every page including many helpful charts and guidlines. He also includes very informative references and resources. The book is comprehensive and oriented to achieve the most favorable results in a practical manner. Doing the advice is becoming and being more healthy. The sections entitled “TAKE THIS TO HEART” at the end of each chapter provide the salient points on which to take action.
Dr. Devries is to be commended for going a different way and presenting a program which is AUTHENTICALLY prevention oriented,a rare find in the all too often mechanistic medical model which dominates the “health” system. His holistic practice is humanizing, personalizing,and consequently truly healing in nature. The book is in layman’s language and an easy read.
HEARTILY recommended!
Wow, Eye Opener!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
If you are reading this I’ll assume you have a heart…and it’s beating.
If this is the case you need to read this book “What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About(TM):Cholesterol: The Latest Natural Treatments and Scientific Advances in One Breakthrough Program”. An easy read and so informative. I plan on giving copies to all those I care about. I wish I knew this information years ago, but it’s never to late to make changes and improve your heart health. Another book I highly recommend is “Reverse Heart Disease Now” by Dr. S. Sinatra not quite as easy to read but has soooooooo much information that it’s worth the effort.
This Book Produces Results that matter ….
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
My father died at the age of 40 of heart disease. I have bad genetics and by the age of 38 my cholesterol was Total 270 HDL 47 LDL 181(Yikes) I was a tri-athlete and had a healthy diet but the results showed real problems.
I started a cardio program with a HUGE cardiologist group in Chicago. These traditional doctors failed to me on every level and past prescribing Lipitor they had little to offer. They DISMISSED my direct questions about contributing risk factors beyond cholesterol.
My standard cardiologist (or western medicine drug pusher) prescribed Lipitor at 20 mg and then raised it to 40 mg. (To this day they are clueless about the need to prescribe CoQ10) By hammering away with drugs my Cholesterol profile went to TOTAL 180 HDL 45 LDL 110.
Not bad you say, well read this book and when you learn about LDL particle density, LP(a), Homocysteine, and other factors. I learned I was an accident waiting to happen. ARE YOU AWARE THAT THE POLITCAL NEWS ANALYST TIM RUSSERT DIED OF A HEART ATTACK 30 days after getting a clear bill of health from his cardiologist. He had the same problems that I have and that killed my father.!!
I was put on Dr DeVries program by a wonderful Doctor: Dr. Thomas O’Bryan in Chicago. He tested for the risk factors in this book BEFORE it was published. Dr O’Bryan explained in detail my real risks, why I was in such danger and prescribed Dr Devries program almost to the letter. The program includes non traditional supplements that are cheap and easy to get!!!
After implementing the supplements recommended by Dr. Devries my Cholesterol profile is TOTAL 140, HDL 55, LDL 73. These numbers are very important because my LDL is made up of Small Dense Lipoproteins (aka “lil packets of death”) so reducing my LDL by an additional 35% is huge. Also note my HDL went up. (I could write about other risk factors that have been reduced but you would need to read this book to understand them )
In a nutshell I am now a patient of Dr Devries and my cardiac risks have been reduced as much as possible. (Due to genetics some things such as LDL particle size can not be changed) The results speak for themselves.
This book is an easy read and clearly organized. Do yourself a favor and buy it and then challenge yourself to find a cardiologist who will work with you to run the tests and implement the program. (Versus condescendingly dismissing non traditional approaches to health)
