Summary: Reads Like a Childrens' Book
Comment: I can't stand it when I read a book that sounds like it's for a 5 year old. The way the text is written insults my intelligence. Virtually no references are provided to support the claims and recommendations that the authors make. I suggest checking out Kilmer McCully's books for a more informative reading session.

Rating: 5
Summary: Dr. Castelli's Book Made Our Recommended Reading List
Comment: When William Castelli speaks, the heart community listens. Dr. Castelli is the long-time director of the famed Framingham Heart Study, and as such is an undisputed expert in this field. His book, Good Fat, Bad Fat; displays his expertise in a way that is easy to read and easy to comprehend. This is one of the best books ever written about heart disease prevention, and is at the top of our recommended reading list at Heart Risk Evaluations.

Summary: Easy - And it works!!
Comment: I had very bad eating habits and in March of this year participated in a cholesterol screening at work. I found out that my cholesterol readings put me in the "high-risk" category for heart disease. So I decided I would attempt to make a change in the way I eat. I spent a short time researching on the internet when I ran across this book. After reading the reviews, I decided to give it a shot. I found the book to be very well written, easy to understand and it seemed to make a lot of sense. Plus the authors appeared credible. I began to monitor my intake of "bad" fat, sticking to the "high-risk" recommendation of 10 grams of "bad" fat/day. Two months later I had my cholesterol checked again. My improvement was evident. I went from: Overall Cholesterol: 229 to 210 LDL (Lousy Cholesterol): 176 to 150 HDL (Healthy Cholesterol - higher is better): 26 to 39 Ratio (Under 4.5 considered healthy): 8.8 to 5.4 Weight: 224lbs. to 211lbs.

This in only 2 months! If I keep this up who knows????????????? Buy the book if you are concerned about your cholesterol and heart disease. It's cheap and it makes sense.
