Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hadler systematically builds the case that many medical interventions are hazardous to our health. Especially insidious is the misuse of longevity statistics in turning the difficulties experienced through a natural course of life, such as aging and osteoporosis, into illnesses. He argues that unfounded assertions and flagrant marketing have led to the medicalization of everyday life and he offers practical solutions on such topics as aging, obesity, adult onset diabetes, and back problems. In The Last Well Person Hadler addresses the tough questions about our health care, cutting through the medical white noise.

Download or read book Dare 2 Live Well written by Dr. Rochelin Herold and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-05-03 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past fifteen years, as a licensed health provider in the United States, I remain incredibly inspired at how the human body works and its ability to heal and repair itself if given the right resources and conditions. I have always believed that the fundamental premise of our healthcare system should focus on using the best practices across all disciplines to offer solutions that support the inherent healing ability of the body to obtain sustainable health outcomes. In what is regarded as the best healthcare system in the world, it is ideal to have a system that begins the caring process with the most effective, conservative and minimally invasive solutions coupled with a mindset to offer protocols that help people sustain a healthier, pain-free life. We all know that is not happening on the grand scale. In my field I have come across thousands of patients who are beyond frustrated with the current status quo of treatment they and their family members have been offered for various conditions, usually limited to medication, injection, or surgery. By the time many patients reach my office, they have already spent a lot of time and money seeing multiple providers and specialists without experiencing sustained positive outcomes, if any at all. Moreover, I truly believe that there is an even larger population of people who are choosing to suffer in silence due to their dissatisfaction with health options or the rising cost of care. This only creates an epidemic proportion of chronic health issues that lead to alarming ER visit rates, premature surgeries, reliance on pain medication and even preventable deaths! The solution to these problems is the challenge I present to you when I say, "Dare 2 Live Well." The dare is evident because you must boldly assign accountability and responsibility for your health into your own hands. You must take the reins! I wrote this book to help you navigate a challenging and complex health care system that is broken. This guide will help make the system work for you as you endeavor to achieve a healthier lifestyle. Most importantly, I want to help shift your focus from pain to prevention and help you recognize the reality that our health-related decisions have a resounding and lasting impact on our families and on future generations.

Download or read book Practical Decision Making in Health Care Ethics written by Raymond J. Devettere and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-20 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than twenty years Practical Decision Making in Health Care Ethics has offered scholars and students a highly accessible and teachable alternative to the dominant principle-based theories in the field. Raymond J. Devettere's approach is not based on an ethics of abstract obligations and duties but, following Aristotle, on how to live a fulfilled and happy life—in short, an ethics of personal well-being grounded in prudence, the virtue of ethical decision making. New sections added in this revised fourth edition include sequencing whole genomes, even those of newborns; the new developments in genetic testing now provided by online commercial companies such as 23andMe; the genetic testing of fetuses by capturing their DNA circulating in the pregnant woman's blood; the Stanford Prison experiment and its relevance to the abuses at the Abu Graib prison; recent breakthroughs in the diagnosis of consciousness disorders such as PVS; the ongoing controversy generated by the NIH study of premature babies at many NICUs throughout the county, a study known as SUPPORT that the OHRP (Office of Human Research Protections, an office within the department of HHS) deemed unethical. Devettere updates most chapters. New cases include Marlise Munoz (dead pregnant woman's body kept on life support by a Texas hospital), Jahi McMath (teenager pronounced dead in California but treated as alive in New Jersey), Margot Bentley (nursing home feeding a woman dying of end stage Alzheimer’s despite her advance directive that said no nourishment or liquids if she was dying with dementia), Brittany Maynard (dying 29-year-old California woman who moved to Oregon to commit suicide with a physician's help), and Samantha Burton (woman with two children who suffered rupture of membranes at 25 weeks and whose physician obtained a court order to keep her at the hospital to make sure she stayed on bed rest). Thoughtfully updated and renewed for a new generation of readers, this classic textbook will be required reading for students and scholars of philosophy and medical ethics.

This book was released on 2005-12 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her new book diet failure?the Naked Truth Nutritional/Medical Researcher Phoenix Gilman reveals why obesity is so alarmingly prevalent, as well as depression, ADD, even type 2 diabetes and heart disease. More importantly, she discloses a safe, highly effective solution to help overcome these health conditions without the use of deadly drugs! In her progressive book, Phoenix exposes the crucial Serotonin-Insulin Connection to long-term weight loss. Clinical studies substantiate that serotonin, a major neurotransmitter, plays a critical role in our ability to lose weight?and keep it off. However, serotonin also plays a critical role (directly or indirectly) in alleviating depression, insomnia, ADD, type 2 diabetes, even high blood pressure, heart disease, and suicidal behavior. But the key to all of this is understanding how to safely maintain this neurotransmitter. Phoenix says, ?Never before have I come across such compelling information that could so dramatically help millions of people. This research is absolutely vital to overcoming obesity?and many other serious health conditions.?
