Download or read book Into Our Own Hands written by Sandra Morgen and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent history has witnessed a revolution in womens health care. Beginning in the late 1960s, women in communities across the United States challenged medical and male control over womens health. Few people today realize the extent to which these grassroots efforts shifted power and responsibility from the medical establishment into womens hands as health care consumers, providers, and advocates. Into Our Own Hands traces the womens health care movement in the United States. Richly documented, this study is based on more than a decade of research, including interviews with leading activists; documentary material from feminist health clinics and advocacy organizations; a survey of womens health movement organizations in the early 1990s; and ethnographic fieldwork. Sandra Morgen focuses on the clinics born from this movement, as well as how the movements encounters with organized medicine, the state, and ascendant neoconservative and neoliberal political forces of the 1970s to the1980s shaped the confrontations and accomplishments in womens health care. The book also explores the impact of political struggles over race and class within the movement organizations.

Download or read book Quarterback Your Own Health written by Thomas Lewis and published by . This book was released on 2016-11-25 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quarterback Your Own HealthHow To Take (and Lower) Your Chronic Disease TemperatureToo many citizens of Earth die suddenly and unexpectedly, in the primes of their lives. We refer to these people as "apparently well" when actually they are diagnosable as ill. Medicine claims to be baffled because our healthcare system, by design, is reactive to disease. Early detection and prevention are terms commonly used and the health physical is mainly how it is carried out. This exam hasn't changed much over the last 100 years and lacks predictive power.Here we present readily available medical information and research that provides a better way to determine your immediate and future risk of becoming chronically sick, dying prematurely, or dying suddenly. We include an explanation of tests that help you determine if you are at risk, how great your risk actually is, and where you reside on the health-disease continuum.Your action plan is to simply obtain our recommended medical tests and plug your results into our proprietary chronic disease temperature(tm) calculator. A value above 98.6 implies that you are at risk and that you have chronic disease brewing. Also, we provide ways to restore your health and lower your chronic disease temperature through a "life-preserving" consumption (food) pyramid and other simple, but healthful, measures.We want all our readers to live a long and healthy life.Stay Well,Drs. Trempe and Lewis

Download or read book More Health Less Care written by Peter J. Weiss and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2010-04-14 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More Health, Less Care outlines a practical philosophy of personal health and enables readers to develop and act on an individual plan for healthy living. Through the metaphor of "being your own doctor," it explains fundamental principles of change that can be applied for a lifetime instead of the latest fad diet or exercise program. The easily understood stories and disarming, open style invite readers to accept the message and inspire them to make meaningful changes. Other health books typically provide formulas for healthy living in a "one size fits all" approach, ignoring individual variation and the great difficulty of actually implementing major lifestyle changes. By engaging the reader farther upstream in the change process, More Health, Less Care complements other health and wellness works. This book is the same as the identically titled, authored, and dated book previously available from LaChance Publishing LLC (April 14, 2010).

The only thing predictable about menopause is its unpredictability. Factor in widespread misinformation, a lack of research, and the culture of shame around women's bodies, and it's no wonder women are unsure what to expect during the menopause transition and beyond. Menopause is not a disease - it's a planned change, like puberty. And just like puberty, we should be educated on what's to come years in advance, rather than the current practice of leaving people on their own with bothersome symptoms and too much conflicting information. Knowing what is happening, why and what to do about it is both empowering and reassuring. Frank and funny, Dr Jen debunks misogynistic attitudes and challenges the over-mystification of menopause to reveal everything you really need to know about: * Perimenopause * Hot flashes * Sleep disruption * Sex and libido * Depression and mood changes * Skin and hair issues * Outdated therapies * Breast health * Weight and muscle mass * Health maintenance screening * And much more Filled with practical, reassuring information, this essential guide will revolutionise how women experience menopause - including how their lives can be even better for it!
