Left for Dead

After a dramatic recovery from near a fatal heart attack & failed bypass at age 42, Quinn studied the herbs that saved his life & developed his own formulas. In 1988, he began the Heart Foods Company to manufacture & sell his formulas. Sales boomed until 1991, when the FDA stepped in. In frustration he quit the health food business to write LEFT FOR DEAD. Exciting, funny, touching, true story. Tells how he's avoided heart attack, impotence, stroke, low energy, blood pressure & cholesterol problems since 1978 without drugs or surgery. Well written & witty, it will make you laugh out loud & fill your head with new ideas about your own health care. Quinn tells exactly what herbs he takes for everything from low energy to high blood pressure in a section called "Prescriptions for Myself." Charming letters from users of his formulas are actually photostated.
