Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is The Healthiest You different from every other health, diet, and fitness plan? Because it works. Dr. Kelly Traver understands that the human brain resists change. Only when we learn the secrets of how to get our brain to work for us, not against us, can we make healthy, permanent lifestyle changes. By combining recent cutting-edge discoveries in neuroscience with the latest information in medicine, nutrition, and fitness, Dr. Traver developed the Healthiest You program and initially tested it on her patients, ranging in age from twenty to eighty-one. Her results were astounding: • Among those who were overweight, the average weight loss was 19 pounds. • Among those who were diabetic, 80 percent achieved a reduction in their blood sugar. • Among those with high blood pressure, 87 percent returned their blood pressure to normal. • Some 80 percent of the smokers successfully kicked the habit. In the course of 12 short weeks, readers can achieve similar success by following Dr. Traver’s simple, straightforward instructions to work with this stubbornly change-resistant organ so that it not only accepts new, healthy lifestyle habits, it actually embraces them. You can use this empowering information to remotivate yourself whenever your enthusiasm starts to wane. With the powerful tools provided by The Healthiest You, you can learn to change your body and your life, simply by understanding and working with your brain.

This book was released on 2021-01-05 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fresh, new pregnancy guide—the first complete functional medicine book—offering women and their partners a comprehensive approach to maintain and enhance health and wellness before, during, and after pregnancy. The Wise Woman’s Guide to Your Healthiest Pregnancy and Birth combines the expertise of top-tier physical therapist Patricia Ladis—who works with superstar athletes, professional dancers, and celebrities—with Dr. Anita Sadaty, a highly regarded holistic ob-gyn with a celebrity clientele. Together, they have devised a six-step protocol beginning the six months before conception continuing forty days post-birth and beyond, incorporating holistic principles that encourage optimal wellness for mother, partner, and baby. Whether they are in their 20’s, 30’s or 40’s, this book empowers readers to be in tune with their bodies during all stages of pregnancy, and is the first book by a functional medicine dream-team aligning medical and structural body issues to avoid such potential pregnancy outcomes as osteoporosis, sciatica, pelvic prolapse, structural weakness, and postpartum depression. Each of the six stages organizes Ladis and Sadaty’s holistic principles into five easy-to-follow aspects: Body, Movement, Breathing, Nourishment, and Wisdom. They include practical applications such as foods to help reduce internal inflammation, specific exercises—with instructive photos—in each stage, breathing techniques to lower stress, and “pearls of wisdom” backed by science exploring a multicultural history of this special time in a woman’s life. For the first time, a pregnancy guide considers the importance of choices you make six months prior to conception, and the effect on genes. When both members of a couple are calm, fit, and well-nourished, the latest science suggests that together they are less likely to pass on negative genes to a child.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1850 and 1900, Milwaukee’s rapid population growth also gave rise to high death rates, infectious diseases, crowded housing, filthy streets, inadequate water supplies, and incredible stench. The Healthiest City shows how a coalition of reform groups brought about community education and municipal action to achieve for Milwaukee the title of “the healthiest city” by the 1930s. This highly praised book reminds us that cutting funds and regulations for preserving public health results in inconvenience, illness, and even death. “A major work. . . . Leavitt focuses on three illustrative issues—smallpox, garbage, and milk, representing the larger areas of infectious disease, sanitation, and food control.”—Norman Gevitz, Journal of the American Medical Association “Leavitt’s research provides additional evidence . . . that improvements in sanitation, living conditions, and diet contributed more to the overall decline in mortality rates than advances in medical practice. . . . A solid contribution to the history of urban reform politics and public health.”—Jo Ann Carrigan, Journal of American History

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of Perfect Daughters, a pivotal book in the ACoA movement, identifies what differentiates the adult daughters of alcoholics from other women. When this groundbreaking book first appeared over ten years ago, Dr. Ackerman identified behavior patterns shared by daughters of alcoholics. Adult daughters of alcoholics—"perfect daughters" —operate from a base of harsh and limiting views of themselves and the world. Having learned that they must function perfectly in order to avoid unpleasant situations, these women often assume responsibility for the failures of others. They are drawn to chemically dependent men and are more likely to become addicted themselves. More than just a text that identifies these behavior patterns, this book collects the thoughts, feelings and experiences of twelve hundred perfect daughters, offering readers an opportunity to explore their own life's dynamics and thereby heal and grow. This edition contains updated information throughout the text, and completely new material, including chapters on eating disorders and abuse letters from perfect daughters in various stages of recovery, and helpful, affirming suggestions from Dr. Ackerman at the end of every chapter. This book is essential for every one who found validation, hope, courage and support in the pages of the original Perfect Daughters, as well as new readers and every therapist who confronts these issues. Also includes: a comprehensive reference section and complete index.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only a small percentage of the population is aware of the devastating impact that obesity has on diabetes. If you are obese, your chances of developing gestational diabetes are much higher. Adolescents and adults who are overweight are more likely to develop type 2, or adult-onset, diabetes. Almost 90% of patients with type 2 diabetes are obese. Getting your weight under control may be the finest gift you can offer yourself if you have been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. About 40% of people with type 2 diabetes also have high blood pressure, which is thought to be made worse by being overweight. Type 2 diabetes and hypertension go hand in hand. As a result of obesity, a condition known as insulin resistance may develop in which the body no longer reacts to insulin, which is essential to aid the body in utilising sugar and glucose as fuel at the cellular level. If you have been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes or are at risk of developing the disease, there are steps you can take to assist yourself. The first step is to lose weight. I know it is a lot simpler to say than to really accomplish. Dieting is never enjoyable or simple for most people. However, you may not be able to live the retirement you had hoped for if you do not begin taking serious steps to ensure your own health. Standing your ground Do not succumb to the ravages of diabetes. Motivate yourself with the importance of maintaining healthy lifestyle habits for beating diabetes. Take back control of your body. Diabetes has the potential to be your death sentence if you do not win this battle. If you hold your ground, reduce weight, become active, and follow your doctor's directions, you can win this battle. Face this sickness full on with all of your power. When you resolve to stand up and fight for your health, you will be shocked at what occurs. Get your hands dirty. Find things that you like and go out and participate in them. You do not want to make such activities passive either. Take advantage of the warm weather because summer is the best time to take drastic action. Take the kids out. Consider taking up the sport or doing any exercise. In order to remember why you want to live forever, do whatever it takes to get up and move each and every day. Keep an eye on what you are putting in your mouth. In and out of the system, right? Once diagnosed with diabetes, you must adhere to a stringent set of dietary guidelines. As a result, it is imperative that you adhere strictly to your dietary limitations. In order to experience life to the fullest, you must learn to live within those boundaries. All types of meals for diabetics are now accessible, which was not the case only a few years ago. It is really fantastic. If you keep to your diet and exercise plan, you may have a healthy lifestyle with diabetes. You must never lose sight of how important it is to follow a healthy diet while dealing with diabetes.

This book was released on 2013-04-12 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is among the wealthiest nations in the world, but it is far from the healthiest. Although life expectancy and survival rates in the United States have improved dramatically over the past century, Americans live shorter lives and experience more injuries and illnesses than people in other high-income countries. The U.S. health disadvantage cannot be attributed solely to the adverse health status of racial or ethnic minorities or poor people: even highly advantaged Americans are in worse health than their counterparts in other, "peer" countries. In light of the new and growing evidence about the U.S. health disadvantage, the National Institutes of Health asked the National Research Council (NRC) and the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to convene a panel of experts to study the issue. The Panel on Understanding Cross-National Health Differences Among High-Income Countries examined whether the U.S. health disadvantage exists across the life span, considered potential explanations, and assessed the larger implications of the findings. U.S. Health in International Perspective presents detailed evidence on the issue, explores the possible explanations for the shorter and less healthy lives of Americans than those of people in comparable countries, and recommends actions by both government and nongovernment agencies and organizations to address the U.S. health disadvantage.
