This book can help many and hopefully will help you and yours for years to come." - From the Foreword by Michael Roizen, MD, Chief Medical Consultant for The Dr. Oz Show, and New York Times bestselling author
The science of why both heart and brain health are the key to wellness and longevity and how to cultivate a brain-body-balance to live a longer, healthier, and happier life.
Strong Heart, Sharp Mind: The 6-Step Brain-Body Balance Program that Reverses Heart Disease and Helps Prevent Alzheimer's presents a cutting-edge, science-based program that teaches readers how to develop the habits and lifestyle practices that improve both heart and brain health. Readers will learn how they can prevent or forestall both the nation's number-one killer, heart disease, as well as the affliction Americans fear most: Alzheimer's disease. For the 108 million Americans 50 and over, creating what the authors call the "BRAIN-BODY-BALANCE" through the steps detailed in these pages can also improve quality of life and longevity, by synchronizing the interaction between our two most vital organs.
Joseph C.

Together, "No Ordinary Joe" Piscatella and Dr. Sabbagh are poised to guide readers to this new intersection of heart-brain health, and take them through the necessary steps to make that connection between our most vital organs, for optimal wellnessβand to protect them against the world's most lethal and feared diseases.
Strong Heart, Sharp Mind blends science and solution in the form of a new, singular heart/brain-specific program and takes readers through the steps necessary to optimal wellness and a longer, happier life.

About the Author
Joseph C. Piscatella host of three PBS television programs on heart health, a "Guest Expert" on WebMD, and a member of the NIH Expert Panel on Cardiac Rehabilitation, Joe presents the latest science on diet, exercise, stress and attitude. Joe also designs and facilitates the popular 6 Weeks to a HealthierYou , a popular community wellness program that is nationally recognized as one of the most effective population intervention programs for creating healthy habits. A popular speaker to corporate, association, medical and dental groups, over 2 million people have attended Joe's programs.
Joe's personal experience of coronary bypass surgery at age 32 gives him a practical perspective that audiences value. The prognosis at the time of surgery was that he would not live to age 40. Today, because of healthy lifestyle changes, he is 43 years post-surgery. What he did and how he did it are central to his writings and presentations. He uses the art of storytelling, contagious humor and decades of experience to help audiences remember the information and advice. Joe lives his message. Helives & works in the Seattle-Tacoma metro area.
