If you want to make sense of all the information about your medicine that’s available from your doctor, pharmacist, and other sources, this is the book you (and we all) have been waiting for. Keep your pet safe from chocolate poisoning AND discover what your doctor and pharmacist want you to know about your medications and how to take them safely.

Download or read book Fact or Fiction written by Scientific American Editors and published by Scientific American. This book was released on 2013-07-29 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fact or Fiction: Science Tackles 58 Popular Myths by the Editors of Scientific American Did NASA really spend millions creating a pen that would write in space? Is chocolate poisonous to dogs? Does stress cause gray hair? These questions are just a sample of the urban lore investigated in this eBook, Fact or Fiction: Science Tackles 58 Popular Myths. Drawing from Scientific American's "Fact or Fiction" and "Strange But True" columns, we've selected 58 of the most surprising, fascinating, useful and just plain wacky topics confronted by our writers over the years. Each brief article uncovers the truth behind everyday mythology, starting with Section One, "In the Animal Kingdom," where we examine some of the more outlandish claims about our fellow earthly inhabitants, such as whether elephants really remember everything and whether a cockroach can live without its head. Other sections cover reproduction, the environment, technology and personal and mental health. While the answers to some questions, such as whether toilets really do flush in the opposite direction south of the Equator, may only serve to raise your Trivial Pursuit knowledge, others, such as whether to pee on a jellyfish sting or wake a sleepwalker, may come in handy. Although this eBook represents a fraction of circulating folk wisdom and urban mythology, we hope that it's an enjoyable fraction and that it encourages you to do some debunking yourself.

Download or read book The Ultimate Pet Health Guide written by Gary Richter, MS, DVM and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a holistic veterinarian and scientist, Dr. Gary Richter helps dog and cat owners to navigate the thicket of treatment options and separate the fact from the fiction. He wants us to use what actually works, not just what Western science or alternative medicine say "should" work. This multifaceted approach to health is known as integrative medicine. Dr. Richter examines traditional medicine from many cultures alongside modern medical techniques, describing the best of complementary care and the best of conventional veterinary medicine. Every treatment he recommends has the backing of scientific research or years of successful outcomes in his clinical practice. After explaining the treatment, he offers specific recommendations for an integrative approach to common diseases, including allergies, skin conditions, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. A holistic approach to health includes nutrition, as it sets up the foundation for your pet’s health. Dr. Richter cuts through the hype in the pet-food world and explains how to choose the best commercial foods and supplements, and even includes both raw and cooked dog- and cat-food recipes for general diet as well as to treat specific needs. He also explains how we can use the right foods and supplements to "hack" the body’s processes, including the immune system.

Download or read book More Chocolate No Cavities written by Roger W. Lucas and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-03-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 60% of children have a cavity by the age of 5, according to a survey by the AAPD. Doctors' kids, dentists' kids, nutritionists' kids, and children from all backgrounds get surprised by a cavity diagnosis every day across the country. It is often too late because well-meaning parents think it won't happen to them. Cavities don't care that much about effort. The dentist blames it on weak enamel or genetics, which means nothing changes. It doesn't have to be this way anymore. This guide is the first of its kind on instructing parents in exactly what to do if you don't want your child to get "surprise" cavities. (The ones not caused by excessive sugar.) Not only do I explain what to do, but I also go over the common pitfalls of well-meaning parents.

In fact, they could not be more different! Leonora loved listening to opera. That's why she named her dog after her favorite opera, Fidelio. When Leonora and Fidelio went for a walk, everyone looked at them in a very strange way and started gossiping... “Here they come. They are nothing alike!", they said, laughing out loud at them.
