These two stories of cardiologists are inspiring for their transformation of the treatment of their patients. Instead of treating the same patients over and over again, they have found a way to get the patients off the “illness treadmill” and have found a “wellness path” to follow.

At the same time, these doctors have taken control of their lives and do not have to work in a crisis mode all the time.
Our company has helped prominent cardiologists to seamlessly integrate these goals into their practices. We can also share personal experiences of a patient’s continued survival and improvement from congestive heart failure for over 8 years.

While most books focus solely on the role of cholesterol in heart disease, Reverse Heart Disease Now draws on new research that points to the surprising other causes. Two leading cardiologists draw on their collective fifty years of clinical cardiology research to show you how to combine the benefits of modern medicine, over-the-counter vitamins and supplements, and simple lifestyle changes to have a healthy heart.

Intro to "Reverse Heart Disease Now": (Summarized)

Dr. Stephen T. Sinatra's Story

It's hard to put into words all this running from one emergency to another. For four or five years, I never ate lunch. I had no time for it. My lifestyle was very hard on my family life. My beeper would go off in the middle of my son’s soccer game. This was before cell phones, and I'd leave to find a pay phone to call the hospital. It was a good life in the sense that I felt I was always needed but a hard life, nevertheless. When I got home from work, I couldn't talk to my wife because I was all wired up and exhausted. One day, I woke up and seriously questioned what I was doing. I liked my job, but I also hated it. After doing some heroics on a heart patient whom we had treated before, I told another doctor that we were barking up the wrong tree. We prescribed drugs and applied different therapies aimed at directly fixing the problem. For the short term, our efforts worked. We were doing all the things we were trained to do but we weren't helping to heal our patients for the long term.

In that same year—it was 1978- I encountered Jacob Rinse, a ninety -one-year-old Dutch petroleum chemist who changed my life. Years before, he had been diagnosed with severe coronary artery disease but had refused bypass surgery. Being an inquisitive scientist, he had investigated the nature of heart disease and formulated his own vitamin and mineral concoctions. He thrived on the home-made program. I saw patients reach levels of healing I could never imagine possible with conventional care alone. Instead of tears of sorrow, I repeatedly witnessed tears of joy. I received hearty hugs from rejuvenated patients.


Dr. James C. Robert's Story

I was a midnight warrior at the start of my cardiology practice. I was in the hospital all the time. There were eight coronary care unit beds in the hospital where I was on staff. One Tuesday afternoon, I was managing all eight patients. I was doing invasive procedures over and over. In basketball they talk about triple doubles: players striving to reach double digits in scoring points, rebounding, and assisting other scorers in a game. The best players do it maybe a few times in a season. In my work, I strived for a triple double every day. That meant any three of the following "performances": two pacemakers, two angiograms, two right heart catheterizations for heart failure, two balloon pumps, two admissions.

After four or five years in practice, I began to realize that I was falling into a frustrating pattern: treating the same people over and over without really getting them well. The same patients always came back. It was a revolving door. I would do heroics for their heart, but they might develop gastrointestinal tract bleeding or kidney failure as a side effect of the treatment. I felt like I was spinning my wheels. I would treat someone with heart failure in crisis, a patient short of breath, his or her lungs full of fluid because of a stiff heart not pumping effectively. I would overcome the immediate danger and send the patient home. But because we weren't dealing with the cause of the heart failure, the patient would return in crisis again.

Within a year, I noticed my hospital admissions dropping. My patients were doing better, and I was starting to feel that I could actually do something besides crisis management. My patients take their necessary medications. That's important and often critical to their survival. But the difference is that they are taking supplements that stop or minimize the damage that ruins their arteries and heart cells. Over a ten-year period, this approach has totally revolutionized my practice.
