From the bestselling author of the 'Strong Women' series comes a comprehensive guide to reducing and combating the risk of heart disease for women. Coronary heart disease and stroke are Australia's first and second biggest killers. Heart Foundation statistics show that 90% of Australian adults have at least one modifiable risk factor for heart, stroke and vascular disease and 25% have three or more risk factors.

Bestselling women's health author Miriam Nelson, PhD, turns her attention to the essential topic of women's heart health. Five times as many Australian women die from Coronary Heart Disease than breast cancer. In this comprehensive and practical guide, written with renowned heart expert Alice Lichtenstein, DSc, Nelson presents up-to-the-minute advice on diet, exercise, weight loss, stress reduction and other key elements for preventing and reversing heart disease in women.

The book debunks the misconception that heart disease is primarily a male concern - the number of heart failure deaths in Australia is 1.7 times higher in women than in men.

With self-evaluations, checklists, exercises, recipes, and other practical information, as well as the latest research findings, this empowering book will help readers assess their risks, understand their options, and make important changes to improve their heart health.
