No More Heart Disease: How Nitric Oxide Can Prevent - Even Reverse - Heart Disease and Strokes
Dr. Louis Ignarro discovered "the atom" of cardiovascular health--a tiny molecule called Nitric Oxide. NO, as it is known by chemists, is a signaling molecule produced by the body, and is a vasodilator that helps control blood flow to every part of the body.

A year and a half ago I sat at one of those blood pressure checkers at Wal-mart and was shocked to see 170/92. Many follow ups proved it wasnt a fluke. I did a lot of research and found this book by Nobel winner Dr. Ignarro. I read it in a day and did everything it told me to. My blood pressure went from a frequent high of 170/93 to a consistent normal 122/80 over 18 months later. My BP dropped like crazy the first two weeks I was on the plan and stayed low. A few specific supplements and easy c...more
Dr Jouis J. Ignarro won the Nobel prize for his discoveries related to Nitric Oxide which is the NO in his title - a play on words.
While this book represents his attempt to monetize his discoveries I commend him for doing something to get his story out. After all he didn't make a ton of money being reward the Nobel prize.

Pretty much a life-changing read. Ignarro won a Nobel Prize for his breakthrough research on Nitric Oxide. This is an easy to read book on how to implement a few simple changes into your diet and lifestyle - changes that will not only give you a dramatically healthier cardiovascular system, but also more energy, drive, and happiness. What he says works (been almost 3 years since I first read this book). Science can be VERY cool, and this book is a must read for pretty much anyone and everyone.
I'm about to start taking some of the supplements suggested by Dr. Ignarro, so if they make a big difference in my health, I'll change my rating. Other than that, his exercise and eating guidelines are no different than any other "diet".
