Ultimately, it was written to stop you from becoming another statistic. Even if you’ve never thought of heart disease before, it's not too late to start your journey towards health and vitality. Now is the time to "Slay the Giant!" Heart disease is the number one killer and disabler in our country, even though it is predominantly preventable! Unfortunately, we are so preoccupied with finding new ways to treat heart disease that we expend relatively little effort on keeping people from getting it in the first place. Written by Dr. Elizabeth Klodas, practicing, Board Certified Cardiologist, and Founder and Chief Medical Officer of Step One Foods. Dr. Klodas’, and Step One Foods’ mission is to empower individuals to be better stewards of their own health. That means understanding your risk factors and what you can do about them - without only resorting to medications.
