Book excerpt: PLACE THE POWER OF HEALING IN YOUR HANDS > Are you or a loved one suffering with undiagnosed pain? > Does your doctor rush you out the door in less than 10 minutes after performing a superficial exam? > Does your doctor often interrupt you and not give you adequate time to describe the history of your illness? > Does your doctor only seem interested in treating your symptoms with another prescription and not looking for the underlying cause of your illness? Take back control of your health with these proven tools for solving your own health problems. THE FACTS: > 75% of illnesses are caused by external influences - which are easily recognized and analyzed by you. > Most ailments can be simply diagnosed by examining your problem history and the circumstances surrounding its development - information that you have. > Doctors typically spend only ten minutes examining you, but difficult and intractable problems require a deeper analysis - time that you have. > Most doctors prescribe drugs or surgery to treat your symptoms, which does not address the underlying cause of your problem. > Once you clearly pinpoint the source of your problem, a quick and painless permanent remedy can normally be found by removing the offending source - without drugs or surgery __________________________________________________________ Beginning with a fascinating case study of a patient who suffered for years with an undiagnosed severe illness but who quickly solved it himself following the systematic self-diagnostic process outlined in this book, Be Your Own HEALTH DETECTIVE equips you with proven tools to discover the quickest and least invasive solution to your personal problem.

Download or read book Health Your Self written by Janice M. Horowitz and published by Post Hill Press. This book was released on 2021-05-18 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Know what’s driving your doctor’s decisions—and how to protect yourself. Through compelling real-life stories, Health Your Self reveals the forces that compromise your medical care, and arms you with the tools to navigate around them. • When a doctor refers you to a colleague in a hospital, there’s a hidden influence: he gets a bonus. • When a psychiatrist prescribes medication to school children, it might have more to do with the colossal overreach of drug companies than something your kids actually need. • When you are handed unnecessary painkillers at urgent care, the doctor could be bucking for a five-star rating on a patient satisfaction survey. Enough of those, he gets a raise. Health Your Self turns you into a smart, practical—and brave—healthy skeptic. “Backed with her twenty years of health reporting for Time, Janice M. Horowitz produced this eminently readable guide that empowers you to get the healthcare you really need. More knowledge, less waste, better care.” —Frank Lalli, the Health Care Detective™ at NPR’s Robin Hood Radio “This is a controversial book and I’m ready for the tough questions my patients are bound to ask after reading it.” —Jane Farhi, Cardiologist, Lenox Hill Hospital, New York City “Finally, your own personal and portable patient advocate!

When you turn the last page, you realize you were just handed everything it takes to get the best medical care possible.” —Leslie Laurence, Co-author of Outrageous Practices
Download or read book My Detective written by Jeffrey Fleishman and published by Blackstone Publishing. This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los Angeles is booming. Money is pouring in. Buildings are going up. But someone is killing architects. Detective Sam Carver journeys through sins scattered across the City of Angels, where hipsters, homeless, immigrants, producers, politicians, movie stars, and cops collide in mysterious ways. Every move Carver makes is anticipated by the killer, Dylan Cross. She has hacked his computer and knows his diaries and secrets. She sees in him a kindred and damaged spirit, a man who can understand her crimes, heal her scars, and love her. Dylan is reclaiming herself from a past of brutal injustices inflicted by a world of misogyny and power. Detective Carver is dealing with his own troubled history: an elusive and violent father. My Detective is a story of obsession set against vengeance and prayers of forgiveness in a city that is as cruel as it is fantastical. It captures modern Los Angeles in real time, an eerie glide through the imagination, where winds gust high above the San Gabriel Mountains and neighborhoods stretch toward the ocean like the flash and tremor of a dream. The novel speaks to our sense of beauty in a new century and the demons we rouse when we dare to create a new metropolis.

Download or read book Healing from the Inside Out written by Adele Puhn and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 1999-04-27 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No doctor can ever understand your body as well as you. And from understanding comes the self-awareness and responsible self-care that produces long-lasting good health. To help you take charge of your body's well-being, clinical nutritionist Adele Puhn, author of the New York Times bestseller The 5-Day Miracle Diet, has written this comprehensive guide to the sources of--and remedies for--many, perhaps all, of your health problems. An abused digestive tract allows toxins and bacteria to leak through its weakened walls into the bloodstream and wreak havoc throughout the body. An overtaxed liver, unable to perform its vital filtering and metabolic functions, leaves the body toxic and vulnerable. Healing from the Inside Out tells you how to heal these conditions and repair the damage they have caused in all parts of the body--featuring more than fifty fully detailed and carefully structured preventive and rescue regimens--wholesome diets, appropriate potencies of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, herbal remedies, and more--all designed to heal and invigorate the body. - Gastro-intestinal tract: Crohn's disease, colitis, ulcers, gallbladder disease, hiatal hernia, irritable bowl syndrome - Heart and circulation: angina, arrhythmia, high cholesterol, hypertension - Muscles, joints, and skeleton: chronic back pain, fibromyalgia, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis - Skin and hair: dandruff, hair loss, psoriasis - Endocrine system: hypoglycemia, hyperthyroidism, kidney stones, diabetes - Emotions: depression, chronic fatigue syndrome, stress, hyperactivity - Breathing: asthma, chronic bronchitis, sinusitis And much more, including case histories and a guide to complementary heath organizations.
Download or read book Suckers written by Rose Shapiro and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-09-30 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Alternative' medicine is now used by one in three of us. In the UK we spend an estimated £4.5 billion a year on it and its practitioners are now insinuating themselves into the mainstream. There are methods based on ancient or far-eastern medicine, as well as ones invented in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Many are promoted as natural treatments. What they have in common is that there is no hard evidence that any of them work. Treatments like homeopathy, acupuncture and chiropractic are widely available and considered reputable by many. Ever more bizarre therapies, from naturopathy to nutraceuticals, ear candling to ergogenics, are increasingly favoured. Endorsed by celebrities and embraced by the middle classes, alternative medicine's appeal is based on the spurious rediscovery of ancient wisdom and the supposedly benign quality of nature. Surrounded by an aura of unquestioning respect and promoted through uncritical airtime and column inches, alternative medicine has become a lifestyle choice. Its global market is predicted to be worth $5 trillion by 2050. Suckers reveals how alternative medicine can jeopardise the health of those it claims to treat, leaches resources from treatments of proven efficacy and is largely unaccountable and unregulated. In short, it is an industry that preys on human vulnerability and makes fools of us all. Suckers is a calling to account of a social and intellectual fraud; a bracing, funny and popular take on a global delusion.
