Joseph Piscatella

Joe Piscatella is one of the nation's foremost authorities on the link between lifestyle habits and cardiac health, and one of the longest-lived survivors of cardiac bypass surgery in the country. In his motivational seminars, which have been called "a force for positive change" by TIME magazine, he teaches how to live a healthier, better-balanced life in our stressful modern society.

At 32 years old, Joe Piscatella was a successful businessman with a new home and two young children--a bright future lie ahead of him. But one day, it all suddenly fell apart. Experiencing discomfort in his chest while playing tennis, Piscatella went in for a physical and two days later had emergency heart bypass surgery for a 95% blockage of his coronary arteries. At 32, he faced a prognosis that all but guaranteed an early death. Refusing to accept that option, he did extensive research and interviewed medical experts to create a plan for a healthy, balanced lifestyle he could implement. The results were so breathtaking that doctors urged him to tell his story.

Piscatella is the best-selling author of Don't Eat Your Heart Out, which recounts his journey from cardiac patient to health expert. He has also written Take A Load Off Your Heart, The Road to A Healthy Heart Runs Through the Kitchen, Positive Mind, Healthy Heart, and Prevent, Halt & Reverse Heart Disease: 109 Things You Can Do.
