At 360-5 we know that a healthy lifestyle – managing stress, staying active and eating a Mediterranean style diet – is the key to preventing heart disease. In fact, here’s what Steven Nissen, MD, chief of cardiovascular medicine at the Cleveland Clinic, wrote in Healthy Heart Lifestyle Guide and Cookbook:
If every American followed [this lifestyle], some marvelous things would happen. Heart disease would be reduced dramatically. Diabetes would diminish to manageable proportions. Whole wings of our hospitals would be shut down. I, and most of my colleagues, could be thrown out onto the streets, unemployed. It would be the happiest day of my life.”
