3. Curcumin (Turmeric). Substantial scientifi c evidence indicates that cur- cumin: (1) combats the infl ammation and oxidative stress that causes athero- sclerosis (hardening of the arteries), (2) reduces oxidized LDL cholesterol, (3) raises protective HDL cholesterol; and (4) reduces triglycerides.

4. D-ribose. Without this fi ve-carbon sugar there would be no ATP, and with no ATP there would be no energy. Although all cells create D-ribose, they do so slowly and to varying degrees depending on the tissue. The heart, skeletal muscles, and the brain can only make enough D-ribose for their daily needs and do not store it. The presence of heart disease results in chronic defi - cient blood fl ow and oxygen so that tis- sues cannot make enough D-ribose and cellular energy levels are constantly de- pleted. Sinatra thus recommends from 5 grams/day (cardiovascular prevention, athletes on maintenance, and healthy people who engage in strenuous activi- ties), to 10-15 grams/day (most patients with heart failure, ischemic cardiovas- cular disease, or peripheral vascular disease), to 15-20 grams/day (advanced heart failure, frequent angina, severe fi bromyalgia/muscle cramps/neuromus- cular disease).
5. Fish Oil [Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs)]. EFAs, containing EPA and DHA, are vital components of cell membranes and particularly important for overall heart health. Omega-3s: (1) reduce “stiffness” and promote proper blood
vessel dilation; (2) reduce infl ammation; (3) promote normal blood pressure, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels; and (4) reduce the risk of fatal arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Since Sina- tra/Bowden maintain that, “fi sh oil saves lives,” they recommend 1-2 grams/day and consumption of wild, cold water fi sh as often as possible.
6. Magnesium. Not only is magnesium re- quired for over three hundred biochem- ical reactions in the body, but it also functions as a natural calcium-channel blocker (aka calcium antagonists, a group of drugs that affect the way calcium passes into certain muscle cells and are used to treat high blood pres- sure, angina, and some abnormal heart rhythms). Coronary artery calcifi cation is a long-recognized major risk for heart disease (see Part 1, Agatston score). Maintaining adequate magnesium levels prevents the rise of intracellular calcium, inhibits platelet aggregation (important in the development of clots), and dilates the arteries (to enable the heart to pump more easily and reduce blood pressure).
The fi nal critical piece of the cardio-
vascular prevention puzzle is the manage- ment of stress, which contributes to all diseases (especially various aspects of heart disease) and Sinatra/Bowden label, “The Silent Killer.” Since stress response can determine whether one lives long and has quality of life, learning techniques that can promote acceptance of, and adaptation to,

Digestive Discomfort? Are you ruled by your gut? Do you experience bloating, gas, abdominal pain? How we eat and what we eat can greatly affect how we feel throughout the day and night. Our Nutrition Team can teach you how to eat healthy without ‘going on a diet’.
or Depression? Many people don’t know that most of our mood modulating brain chemicals are produced in our gut. If our gut is inflamed, our mood is often affected. By learning how to eat in a healthier and more nourishing way, we can improve our mental health.
