About the book

Treatment for heart disease has long focused on the large vessels — the aorta, the carotids, the coronaries. Solving the Heart Puzzle turns the attention to the microcirculation: the small vessels that perfuse every tissue, and that affect not only the heart but the entire circulatory system.

Drawing on more than four decades in clinical medicine — from anesthesiology to integrative practice — Bill Code MD explores how optimal Omega-3s (measured by the Omega-3 Index and Omega-6/Omega-3 ratio) and supplemental oxygen work together to support microcirculatory health.

The book is a continuation of the journey Bill began in Solving the Brain Puzzle, which charted his 25-year recovery from multiple sclerosis. Solving the Heart Puzzle brings the same lens to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health, with practical context drawn from real cases and from the science of healing the smallest vessels.

“A very comprehensive and well-researched book.”

— Andrew Weil MD
