The complex biochemical mechanisms underlying heart function and the critical role of ATP are discussed in a very lucid yet simple manner. Dr. Sinatra makes a compelling case for the importance of the nutrients coenzyme Q10, carnitine, and ribose in the bioenergetics of the heart and for their critical role in heart function, based upon solid scientific evidence. —Hemmi N.
