Summary
For decades, we've been told that heart health is simple. Cholesterol is dangerous. Saturated fat is the enemy. The path to health is a balanced diet. Yet heart disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide. So what’s actually going on?
Nick Norwitz, MD, PhD, found himself at the center of that confusion when, at age 23, he found out that his cholesterol levels were so high they should have been killing him. Doctors warned him he was likely to die young. But heart scans revealed something that shouldn't have been possible: he had no physical evidence of heart disease.
Determined to understand why, Norwitz spent years studying the science of cholesterol, cardiovascular disease, metabolic health, and longevity. Now he reveals:
- Why cholesterol alone may not tell the full story of heart health
- What really drives cardiovascular risk and longevity
- How to navigate conflicting health advice and competing scientific claims
- Which tests, biomarkers, and lifestyle factors matter most
- How to make smarter, more personalized decisions about your health
Norwitz challenges everything you thought you knew about heart health and offers something increasingly rare in modern health advice: clarity. Blending investigative science writing, personal medical mystery, humor, and practical health guidance, this book will change everything you thought you knew about heart health.
