Summary: worth reading
Comment: An excellent book which I heartily endorse for a layperson's understanding of cholesterol. An everything you need to know book, with all the latest as of the publication date. The doc also has recommendations based on his own experience and research, most obviously well considered and grounded. Of course, things are moving so fast in heart and health research that I have questions since the two months ago I read this book, and things are left unanswered. I felt the book failed to synthesize adequately all the information that is coming out. E.G. how do we combine the benecol with the vitamin e,c,b, the fish oil, the garlic, the COQ-10, the flaxseed oil, melatonin etc. Does the benecol affect absorption of some of these other food ingredients being touted now by the researchers? And, do we take something, or everything, and if we combine everything, when do we ingest? I also had questions, unanswered, about the doc's touting of oat bran and psyllium fiber, since other research indicates that these foods, like processed wheat flour, have high glycemic indexes, and therefore that large ingestions would by inference tend to increase blood triglycerides. Thus, maybe I consider this more an information book than a program book, as I felt that latter aspect as explained needs more work.

Summary: I had no idea lowering my cholesterol could be so easy
Comment: I agree wholeheartedly with the other reviewers. At first, I thought it was just hype, but Dr. Cooper convinced me that new foods like Benecol actually work to reduce cholesterol. My doctor wanted me to take medication, but I hate taking pills. This is so much easier and I trust eating food more than taking pills.
Dr. Cooper also proved to me that I needed to be even more concerned about cholesterol than I thought. Cholesterol is a problem in America and lower is better. I was happy to read that there are many other doctors and clinical studies that support Dr. Cooper's use of Benecol to lower it.

Summary: Best cholesterol-lowering advice I have seen yet!
Comment: Dr. Cooper provides straight, clear advice on how to lower cholesterol naturally with functional foods like new Benecol foods and even bran flakes. His recipes and meal tips provide even more options for including Benecol into the everyday routine. His explanation of the "science" behind this new food is simple and understandable. His discussion of the additional cholesterol reduction seen when Benecol is used alongside a cholesterol-lowering medication is intriguing.
