Petty vs. Pearson - Mike Hembree - Bog - Quarto Publishing Group USA Inc - Plusbog.dk

Get the detailed inside story on the legendary rivalry that helped propel NASCAR from regional curiosity to national phenomenon. The battle for NASCAR dominance was never more pronounced than when Richard Petty and David Pearson met on the track. In 551 head-to-head races between 1960 and 1986, they finished one-two an astounding 63 times (Pearson won 33, Petty 30). Each showdown attracted more media attention and new fans, helping the sport to evolve evermore rapidly. Petty vs. Pearson is the only book to examine this storied relationship, beginning with their pre-Winston Cup careers. Award-winning motorsports journalist Mike Hembree details: - The drivers’ backgrounds —Petty earning his way up through a racing dynasty led by his father Lee; Pearson honing his skills as a DIY racer on local South Carolina dirt tracks - Their first meeting in a Cup event , in 1960 - The memorable battles , including their legendary wild finish at the 1976 Daytona 500 - Parallel careers that coincided with seismic changes to NASCAR : the advent of superspeedways, the “aero wars,” the injection of corporate money, and a new generation of star drivers in the 1980s While their rivalry produced amazing finishes and tense moments, Petty and Pearson were friends throughout. Petty vs. Pearson examines that relationship, including their retirements in 1986 (Pearson) and 1992 (Petty) and their lives in NASCAR beyond the driver’s seat. Throughout the riveting text, Hembree draws on original interviews with both drivers (including interviews conducted with Petty in early 2024), those who witnessed the rivalry, and NASCAR figures who came later. The result is an entertaining and essential account of two storied drivers—and friends—who bridged NASCAR’s rollicking early years and the sophisticated entertainment concern it is today.Featuring a foreword by Terry Labonte , a legendary driver in his own right, Petty vs. Pearson is a must-have for every fan’s collection.

The Great Cholesterol Myth, Revised and Expanded - M.d. Sinatra - Bog - Quarto Publishing Group USA Inc - Plusbog.dk

The best-selling book on heart disease, updated with the latest research and clinical findings on high-fat/ketogenic diets, sugar, genetics, and other factors. Heart disease is the #1 killer. However, traditional heart disease protocols—with their emphasis on lowering cholesterol—have it all wrong. Emerging science is showing that cholesterol levels are a poor predictor of heart disease and that standard prescriptions for lowering it, such as ineffective low-fat/high-carb diets and serious, side-effect-causing statin drugs, obscure the real causes of heart disease. Even doctors at leading institutions have been misled for years based on creative reporting of research results from pharmaceutical companies intent on supporting the $31-billion-a-year cholesterol-lowering drug industry. The Great Cholesterol Myth reveals the real culprits of heart disease , including: inflammation, fibrinogen, triglycerides, homocysteine, belly fat, triglyceride to HDL ratios, and high glycemic levels.Best-selling health authors Jonny Bowden, PhD, and Stephen Sinatra, MD, give readers a four-part strategy based on the latest studies and clinical findings for effectively preventing, managing, and reversing heart disease, focusing on diet, exercise, supplements, and stress and anger management. Myths vs. Facts Myth : High cholesterol is the cause of heart disease. Fact : Cholesterol is only a minor player in the cascade of inflammation which is a cause of heart disease. Myth : Saturated fat is dangerous. Fact : Saturated fats are not dangerous. The killer fats are the transfats from partially hydrogenated oils. Myth : The higher the cholesterol, the shorter the lifespan. Fact : Higher cholesterol protects you from gastrointestinal disease, pulmonary disease, and hemorrhagic stroke. Myth : High cholesterol is a predictor of heart attack. Fact : There is no correlation between cholesterol and heart attacks. Myth : Lowering cholesterol with statin drugs will prolong your life. Fact : There is no data to show that statins have a significant impact on longevity. Myth : Statin drugs are safe. Fact : Statin drugs can be extremely toxic including causing death. Myth : Statin drugs are useful in men, women, and the elderly. Fact : Statin drugs do the best job in middle-aged men with coronary disease. Myth : Statin drugs are useful in middle-aged men with coronary artery disease because of its impact on cholesterol. Fact : Statin drugs reduce inflammation and improve blood viscosity (thinning blood). Statins are extremely helpful in men with low HDL and coronary artery disease.
