Rated 5 starsOut of the darkness into the Light
What a revelation. So glad to have read this book. Such a shame that the medical elite have to keep the American public in the dark on the more up to date science on why we are so heart attack prone in this country. I am so glad Dr. McGee is not afaid to tell the truth! People have to be more invovled and take more initiative in their health care and truly do some of their own research and don't just take their doctor's...

Rated 5 starsThe Galileo of Cardiology
Daring, devastating, deadly accurate, Dr. McGee has exposed all aspects of the cardiovascular complex, from bad diet advice from the AHA and the NHLBI of NIH (Heart Institute), to useless bypass surgery based on inferior angiograms. He has supported the use of a number of supplements for treatment of cardiovascular diease rather than toxic prescription drugs, and the use of EDTA chelation therapy for atherosclerosis. Easy...
