Kolkata, 14 February: There is good news for those planning to go for a bypass surgery or
angioplasty but are worried about the expenditure likely to be incurred.
India Book of Records today released Heart Mafia authored by Dr Biswaroop Chowdury that claims
that a few changes in lifestyle can cure people with heart blockages without any side-effects.
The book also “exposes” the “corrupt practices” of surgeons who mint money from patients for unnecessary surgeries, which do more harm to the patient than good.
Dr Samar Chakravorthy from India Book of Records, who was present at the release of the book, quoted figures to stress how bypass surgeries have become a profitable business in the country.
"Around three lakh people across the country go for heart surgeries every year. The cost runs up to several lakhs and the patients have to be hospitalised. But the treatment doesn't guarantee a permanent cure. Patients often die a few years after the surgery while doctors continue to boast of giving new life to people," said Dr Chakravorthy.
Sadly, no surgeon refers to natural treatment which is safe and without any side-effects. A person can be completely cured within six months if he follows a simple lifestyle chart. The death rate and complications are almost nil, he added.
