Continuando el estilo de sus previos libros, "El Sexo y el Paciente Cardiaco", "Contestando sus Preguntas sobre Padecimientos Cardiacos y el Sexo", y "CÓmo Evitar el Caerse Muerto: Una GuÍa para la PrevenciÓn de 201 Causas de Muerte SÚbita o RÁpida", el Dr. Eduardo Chapunoff nos sumerge ahora en el mundo complejo de las personas que sufren de obesidad mÓrbida. Esta obra describe cÓmo y por quÉ el sistema cardiovascular y otros sistemas del cuerpo humano llegan a afectarse por pesos corporales excesivos. Sus propias ilustraciones, simples y esquemÁticas, lo ayudarÁn a comprender cÓmo la obesidad mÓrbida causa infartos de miocardio, insuficiencia cardiaca, accidentes cerebro-vasculares, apnea obstructiva del sueÑo, y muchas otras condiciones, incluyendo la muerte sÚbita. Decisiones crÍticas son facilitadas por las explicaciones prÁcticas y realistas del Dr. Chapunoff. TambiÉn discute la inefectividad y el injusto enfoque de ciertas compaÑÍas de seguros en la cobertura de los gastos que incurre la cirugÍa bariatrÍca o cirugÍa de obesidad. Muchas personas que leerÁn este libro adquirirÁn un entendimiento de esta enfermedad muy distinto del que poseen en la actualidad.
