Dr. John M Kennedy, Marina Del Rey Hospital’s director of preventive cardiology, was featured in the January/February issue of Weight Watcher’s Magazine providing expert advice on exercise and heart attack.
The excerpt reads:
Whatever your family history, a healthy, active lifestyle reduces your chances of dying from a heart attack. “We’ve learned through following people who have been through cardiac rehab that those who exercised before their heart attack and slowly resume expercise afterward recover at a much faster rate,” says John M. Kennedy, MD, a cardiologist and author of The 15 Minute Heart Cure (John Wiley & Sons, 2010). “They feel better faster, and they’re much less likely to have a second heart attack.”
