Reseña del libro "Alive and Well: Your Survival Guide for the Health Care Apocalypse (en Inglés)"
Dr. Martha Howard has put together an informative, persuasive guide that empowers us to take control of our own health. Alive and Well: Your Survival Guide for the Health Care Apocalypse lifts the veil on what Dr. Howard calls the "Five Horsemen of the Apocalypse"-the major players in our nation's health care system. Not only does her book reveal the systems and policies that are making us sick, it is filled with scientific evidence and clinical examples about effective strategies for making ourselves well. This book could impact generations to come. Ruth Buczynski, PhD, licensed psychologist, president of The National Institute for the Clinical Application of Behavioral Medicine Alive and Well has three parts. Part 1 describes in detail how and why the healthcare, food, pharmaceutical, agricultural industries and the political system have caused a steep decline in American health over the last 60 years, making us fatter, more diabetic and making chronic illness "the new normal." Part 2 presents a different perspective for chronic and common illnesses, allowing you to understand that the key to many chronic illnesses can be inflammatory reactions to common foods. It is filled with "clinical pearls" that can help you reduce your chronic illness, or maybe even get rid of it entirely. Part 3 teaches strategies on how you can keep yourself from getting sick, including adapting a paleo-based diet, getting started on exercise, reducing and managing stress, as well as developing emotional intelligence, resilience, and community support. As a bonus, you will also find delicious "alive and well" recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert.
