[The Radical Capitalist]

It just so happens that a fellow Freeper (me!) has written the world's best book on inflammation (along with my father, an M.D.) and how it creates strokes, heart attacks and the symptoms of Alzheimer's.

It's called "The Heart Attack Germ" and it's available at www.amazon.com and www.bn.com.

Check out my website www.TheHeartAttackGerm.com for a good introduction on the subject, complete with animated sequences that explain several topics.

Here's a list of Chapter titles that pretty much sums up what the book is about:

Part I 1. The Heart Attack Germ
2. The Chlamydia Story
3. A Refresher Course in Strokes and Heart Attacks
4. The Response to Injury
5. Chronic Inflammation
6. Inflammatory Atherosclerosis
7. Vulnerable Plaque and Blood Clots
8. The Triggers of Strokes and Heart Attacks
9. Risk Factors - Old and New
10. Bugs in the System: The Links Between Infection, Inflammation and Cardiovascular Disease
11. The Germs of Strokes and Heart Attacks
12. The Arguments for Chlamydia Pneumoniae as a Cause of Strokes and Heart Attacks
13. Antibiotics and the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease
14. Cardiovascular Germs and the Symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease

Part II
1. A Philosophy of Healing
2. The Five Steps of WIN/WIN Therapy (Whip Infection/Weaken Inflammation)
3. An Added Advantage of WIN/WIN Therapy
4. The Future of WIN/WIN Therapy and the Heart Attack Germ
5. The Heart Attack Germ on the web at www.TheHeartAttackGerm.com
 

If you  -- or someone you love -- suffers from cardiovascular disease, I'd really advise you to get this book. You won't know what's making you sick until you read it!

Thanks, TRC! I never heard of this stuff, but I'm convinced. I'll check out your website and run all this by my favorite doc (Mrs. LibWhacker), and see what she has to say about it. It'll be amazing if so many maladies can be traced to one cause.
