Download or read book Is Your Doctor Keeping You Sick written by Dr Lenny Da Costa and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2023-01-05 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have an abundance of food but are malnourished. It’s time to know why and correct it. Our food is our medicine, but it is also our poison—if we understand this and use it, we can prevent chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, cancer, etc., and live a healthy life. Modern medicine has perhaps failed us in these times by overly relying on research presented by the big pharma companies and the recommendations or protocols for management derived from there. It has been ignoring tons of research available in teaching institutions across the world in many allied fields and basic medical sciences that can be used to reverse many ageing problems and chronic diseases. Thus the question: Is your doctor keeping you sick? Today we can spot very early disturbances that can help us prevent chronic disease by doing the right lab investigations—investigations that are available but not done, as modern medicine does not know how to handle the results. Functional medicine is the way forward. It has helped me nurse thousands of patients back to good health over the last 15 years.

Download or read book The Upside of Stress written by Kelly McGonigal and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing from groundbreaking research, psychologist and award-winning teacher Kelly McGonigal, PhD, offers a surprising new view of stress—one that reveals the upside of stress, and shows us exactly how to capitalize on its benefits. You hear it all the time: stress causes heart disease; stress causes insomnia; stress is bad for you! But what if changing how you think about stress could make you happier, healthier, and better able to reach your goals? Combining exciting new research on resilience and mindset, Kelly McGonigal, PhD, proves that undergoing stress is not bad for you; it is undergoing stress while believing that stress is bad for you that makes it harmful. In fact, stress has many benefits, from giving us greater focus and energy, to strengthening our personal relationships. McGonigal shows readers how to cultivate a mindset that embraces stress, and activate the brain's natural ability to learn from challenging experiences. Both practical and life-changing, The Upside of Stress is not a guide to getting rid of stress, but a toolkit for getting better at it—by understanding, accepting, and leveraging it to your advantage.

Download or read book The Daily Stoic written by Ryan Holiday and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the team that brought you The Obstacle Is the Way and Ego Is the Enemy, a daily devotional of Stoic meditations—an instant Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestseller. Why have history's greatest minds—from George Washington to Frederick the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson, along with today's top performers from Super Bowl-winning football coaches to CEOs and celebrities—embraced the wisdom of the ancient Stoics? Because they realize that the most valuable wisdom is timeless and that philosophy is for living a better life, not a classroom exercise. The Daily Stoic offers 366 days of Stoic insights and exercises, featuring all-new translations from the Emperor Marcus Aurelius, the playwright Seneca, or slave-turned-philosopher Epictetus, as well as lesser-known luminaries like Zeno, Cleanthes, and Musonius Rufus. Every day of the year you'll find one of their pithy, powerful quotations, as well as historical anecdotes, provocative commentary, and a helpful glossary of Greek terms. By following these teachings over the course of a year (and, indeed, for years to come) you'll find the serenity, self-knowledge, and resilience you need to live well.
