Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is a major cause of early death and disability across the world. The major markers of risk―including high blood cholesterol, smoking, and obesity―are well known, but studies show that such markers do not account for all cardiovascular risk. Written by a team of renowned experts in the field, this comprehensive and accessible book examines the evidence for emerging and novel risk factors, and their relationship with diet and nutrition.
