Title: The Emperors New Drugs Subtitle: Exploding the Antidepressant Myth Author: Irving Kirsch PhD Narrator: Richard Powers Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 18 mins Language: English Release date: 06-01-12 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 54 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Irving Kirsch has the world doubting the efficacy of antidepressants. Do they work, or are they no better than placebos? Like his colleagues, Kirsch spent years referring patients to psychiatrists to have their depression treated with drugs. Eventually, however, he decided to investigate for himself just how effective the drugs actually were. With 15 years of research, Kirsch demonstrates that what everyone knew about antidepressants is wrong; what the medical community considered a cornerstone of psychiatric treatment is little more than a faulty consensus. ButThe Emperors New Drugsdoes more than just criticize: it offers a path society can follow to stop popping pills and start proper treatment. About the author: Irving Kirsch, PhD, a native of New York City, is a professor of psychology at the University of Hull, United Kingdom, as well as professor emeritus at the University of Connecticut. He lives in Hull, England. Critic Reviews: [Kirschs] case that the drugs benefits are due to placebo and enhanced placebo effect is fascinating and demands urgent researchClearly, its time for a big rethink of what constitutes mental illness and about how to treat it. ( New Scientist) The Emperors New Drugsabsolutely dismantles the case for antidepressants as a pharmacologically effective treatment. ( Psychology Today) [A] spare, remarkably engrossing bookKirsch is a faithful proponent of the scientific method, and his voice therefore brings a welcome objectivity to a subject often swayed by anecdotes, emotions, orself-interest. ( New York Review of Books) Members Reviews: Great insights, but depression not a disease? This book has some great insights and puts into perspective some of the very damaging practices used to 'evaluate,' drug efficacy. My one issue with both the book and author are that in spite of this insight he seems to be under the impression that depression is not actually a disease. Nor are there any suggestions for actual effective treatments for depression. MH, big pharma and the Placebo Effect This is a well presented review of key Mental Health treatment research. The Author spends a significant part of the book explaining in detail the Placebo Effect and its history / Evidence. A good book with some very valid points and evidence, Now get some Excersise and CBT! Real-life conspiracy theory Note that you should NOT stop taking antidepressants as a result of listening to this if you take them without consulting your doctor first, partly because there can be withdrawal symptoms. This warning is included within the work itself. The work provides pretty compelling arguments for the point of view that antidepressant medications are about as effective as placebos. I would say that this is a useful listen if you suffer from depression or have somebody close to you who suffers from depression who you wish to help, but you should be careful how you use the information. The end goal is, of course, to get better, and drugs do help with that goal. Other therapies could provide similar or better results without side effects. The narrator references figures that have not been included with the audio version of this book.

Title: Epidemiology Subtitle: A Very Short Introduction Author: Rodolpho Saracci Narrator: Paul Hecht Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 31 mins Language: English Release date: 01-24-11 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 29 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Epidemiology plays an all-important role in many areas of medicine, from discovering the relationship between tobacco smoking and lung cancer, to documenting the impact of diet, the environment, and exercise on general health, to tracking the origin and spread of new epidemics such as Swine Flu. It is truly a vital field, central to the health of society, but it is often poorly understood, largely due to misrepresentations in the media. In this Very Short Introduction, an internationally recognized authority on epidemiology, Dr. Rodolfo Saracci, provides a wealth of information on this key field, dispelling some of the myths surrounding the study of epidemiology, and explaining what epidemiology is and how vital it is to the discovery, control, and prevention of disease in world populations. Dr. Saracci provides a general explanation of the principles behind clinical trials, and explains the nature of basic statistics concerning disease. He also looks at the ethical and political issues related to obtaining and using information concerning patients, and trials involving placebos. In a hurry? Listen to more . Members Reviews: A Short Introduction Rodolfo Saracci in Epidemiology: A Very Short Introduction sets out to present an abbreviated introduction to epidemiology and attains that ideal very well. Essentially, Saracci defines epidemiology and then takes up various related issues; measuring health and disease, searching for and establishing the causes of disease, determining how disease might be controlled, using archival data and interviews, and related issues. Each chapter describes the statistical approaches used to come to various conclusions. The general reader should not be put off by this because Saraccis prose and approach make even the statistical explanations very helpful. This book is a very short introduction so it will not contain everything that you might want to know, but it is a great start for those interested in the topic. Individuals who enjoy Audible offerings, but are also visually oriented may well want to have a copy of this text in paper for reference. I found it very beneficial and informative even absent the PDFs that are made available to those who purchase the audio edition. The reading of Paul Hecht is very good. Excellent Introduction Dr. Saracci provides an excellent overview of the history, development and application of epidemiological principles. He explains, without burdening the listener with complex mathematical formulas and techniques, the fundamentals of the science of epidemiology and its role in public health practice in our modern world. Dr. Saracci's work is an excellent primer for those considering the pursuit of epidemiology or a refresher for those engaged in its application. I highly recommend this title. Not the best material for an audio book What made the experience of listening to Epidemiology the most enjoyable? This is a unique resource. It's an excellent overview of the science of epidemiology. You will gain a new appreciation of its challenges and benefits to society. The narration is very well done. The book was clearly not conceived to be effective in this medium. You'll hear lots of numbers you won't be able to grasp unless you devote your full attention. If you're driving, some of this will probably blow by you. Also, I wished this covered the history of epidemiology a little more.

Furthermore, the current epidemic of chronic illness demands a new care standard that can break down the existing structural barriers to full resolution. It requires functional medicine. The Evolution of Medicine provides step-by-step instruction for building a successful "community micropractice", one that engages both the patient and practitioner in a therapeutic partnership focused on the body as a whole rather than isolated symptoms. This invaluable handbook will awaken health professionals to exciting new career possibilities. At the same time, it will alleviate the fear of abandoning a conventional medical system that is bad for doctors, patients, and payers, as well as being ineffectual in the treatment of chronic ailments.

Thank you James Maskell for this excellent roadmap to the future of medicine. Curing the doctors Great overview of a model of medicine that can heal our "heath" system and also heal those that provide the care. Thanks for writing this book. Great idea but I wouldn't pay for it again Maskell has good ideas to change health care and create a new business model that benefits health of both patients and providers. That being said I'm kind of annoyed that I paid for this. I was expecting more of an introspection but hey he proved he can make money. I'd read it again.... If I got it for free Want to change your view on Health? Though this book is targeted at physicians impact is powerful and applicable to anyone looking to be a healthier happier person. 10/10 would recommend.

Title: Get What's Yours for Medicare Subtitle: Maximize Your Coverage, Minimize Your Costs Author: Philip Moeller Narrator: James Foster Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 10-04-16 Publisher: Brilliance Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 21 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: A coauthor of the New York Times bestselling guide to Social Security Get What's Yours authors an essential companion to explain Medicare, the nation's other major benefit for older Americans. Learn how to maximize your health coverage and save money. Social Security provides the bulk of most retirees' income and Medicare guarantees them affordable health insurance. But few people know what Medicare covers and what it doesn't, what it costs, and when to sign up. Nor do they understand which parts of Medicare are provided by the government and how these work with private insurance plans - Medicare Advantage, drug insurance, and Medicare supplement insurance. Do you understand Medicare's parts A, B, C, D? Which Part D drug plan is right and how do you decide? Which is better, Medigap or Medicare Advantage? What do you do if Medicare denies payment for a procedure that your doctor says you need? How do you navigate the appeals process for denied claims? If you're still working or have a retiree health plan, how do those benefits work with Medicare? Do you know about the annual enrollment period for Medicare, or about lifetime penalties for late enrollment, or any number of other key Medicare rules? Health costs are the biggest unknown expense for older Americans, who are turning sixty-five at the rate of 10,000 a day. Understanding and navigating Medicare is the best way to save health care dollars and use them wisely. In Get What's Yours for Medicare, retirement expert Philip Moeller explains how to understand all these important choices and make the right decisions for your health and wealth now - and for the future. Members Reviews: Great Information--Well Presented I liked the audio book so well that I also bought the physical book. It will serve me well as a reference. The author takes mind-numbing cemplexity, and organizes it for presentation that is logical, practical, and often makes his points with stories. This helps the reader to understand and remember. Well done! Highly informative and very recommended Medicare is pretty boring. But this book is so informative I remained hooked the entire time. I've been in Medicare sales for 4 years and thought I knew a lot about Medicare. This book showed me quite a few things that I wasn't aware of. It also confirmed certain things I had heard, but wasn't sure if they were true or not. I recommend to my clients turning 65 that they read this. Very nicely done! Too disorganized to be useful What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? I listened for about an hour. The author starts by describing serious problems that people have with Medicare because of lack of clear information. Assuming that the author was using that approach to hook me, I listened to more. I expected him to then outline his approach to breaking Medicare into its pieces and how they connect to each other. However, he continued in the same vein with no apparent organization. A logically organized treatment of Medicare would have been gratefully accepted. This book is not it. Would you be willing to try another one of James Fosters performances? Yes. The reader is quite good. What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment? Anger at spending money for little in return

Title: How to Pronounce Drug Names Subtitle: A Visual Approach to Preventing Medication Errors Author: Tony Guerra Narrator: Ann Richardson Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs Language: English Release date: 01-26-17 Publisher: Tony Guerra Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Can you remember, pronounce, and spell the active ingredient in the last medicine you took or gave your child? Administrators, are you sure every employee providing patients medicines can pronounce and spell them perfectly? If you have any doubt, whether you are listening to this book in a doctor's office, a pharmacy, or a hospital room, I wrote this book for you. A revolution is happening in health care. In the past, nurses, pharmacists, and doctors spoke together at length with families about their concerns and medicines. But now, patients receive only distracted attention as their health professionals tangle with billing, electronic records, and insurance obstacles. This shortened communication frustrates doctors and patients who want to connect. Patients find themselves isolated because they don't speak the language of medicine. This book teaches that language by translating medication names with plain English words. Members Reviews: Awesome Loved the audiobook! He puts his part to the book as he understands as a parent what we go through. Very helpful in helping how to say the word and makes since. Studying for PTCB I'm tight on time. This audiobook is very helpful in my education. I wish this author had more towards learning thePTCB. Thank you very much for this useful information. review This book was a lot easier to read than to listen to. I think just by actually looking at the book it's obvious why. The narrator was okay. It served its purpose in class but I'm not sure it was helpful to listen to.

In Pursuit of Memory Audiobook by Joseph Jebelli

Title: In Pursuit of Memory Subtitle: The Fight Against Alzheimer's Author: Joseph Jebelli Narrator: Thomas Judd Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 44 mins Language: English Release date: 06-01-17 Publisher: John Murray Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: When Joseph Jebelli was 12, his beloved grandfather began to act very strangely. It started with inexplicable walks, and gradually his bright smiles were replaced by a fearful, withdrawn expression. Before long he didn't recognise his family anymore. Dr Jebelli has dedicated his career to understanding Alzheimer's disease, which affects millions worldwide and 850,000 people in the UK alone. In this, his first book, Jebelli explores the past, present and future of Alzheimer's disease, starting from the very beginning - the first recorded case more than 100 years ago - right up to the cutting-edge research being done today. It is a story as good as any detective novel, taking us to 19th-century Germany and postwar England; to the jungles of Papua New Guinea and the technological proving grounds of Japan; to America, India, China, Iceland, Sweden, and Colombia; and to the cloud-capped spires of the most elite academic institutions. Its heroes are expert scientists from around the world - but also the incredibly brave patients and families who have changed the way scientists think about Alzheimer's, unveiling a pandemic that took us centuries to track down, and above all reminding everyone never to take memory - our most prized possession - for granted. Based upon years of meticulous research, In Pursuit of Memory is a compelling insider's account of this terrible disease and the scientists who are trying to find a cure against the clock. Members Reviews: Very Interesting This was such a good listen that I plan to purchase the hardback and pour through all the data. Everyone is touched by this dreadful disease in some way so it really is worthwhile to learn all we can. I enjoyed learning the vast scope of research in a highly inviting, rather than dry scientific, format. Excellent presentation. Excellent review of AD research I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the upbeat (in the long term) prospect for addressing Alzheimers. The credibility was slightly marred by the consistent mispronunciation of microglia. I would have thought these passages would have been re-recorded once this had been spotted.

Subtitle: The Sense and Nonsense of Alternative Medicine Author: Paul A. Offit Narrator: Corey Snow Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 13 mins Language: English Release date: 01-31-14 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 126 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: In Do You Believe in Magic?, medical expert Paul A. Offit, MD, offers a scathing exposé of the alternative medicine industry, revealing how even though some popular therapies are remarkably helpful due to the placebo response, many of them are ineffective, expensive, and even deadly. Dr. Offit reveals how alternative medicine - an unregulated industry under no legal obligation to prove its claims or admit its risks - can actually be harmful to our health. Using dramatic real-life stories, Offit separates the sense from the nonsense, showing why any therapy - alternative or traditional - should be scrutinized. He also shows how some nontraditional methods can do a great deal of good, in some cases exceeding therapies offered by conventional practitioners. An outspoken advocate for science-based health advocacy who is not afraid to take on media celebrities who promote alternative practices, Dr. Offit advises, "There's no such thing as alternative medicine. There's only medicine that works and medicine that doesn't." Critic Reviews: "This excellent, easy-to-read look at the alternative-medicine industry is highly recommended." ( Library Journal Starred Review) Members Reviews: Some of the research right on and some right off A lot of his research makes sense and I enjoyed this book but The author needs to do more research about AIDS and Vaccinations. It's unclear if he is toeing the line in favor of the pharmaceutical company's or being completely unbiased A Must Listen! Doctor Offit makes the topic of 'alternative' medicine accessible and in an understandable and fascinating manner explains its popularity and shortcomings. Excellent overview of alternative medicine The book takes a good hard look at what alternative medicine really offers and why magical thinking may sometimes cause real harm. The author presents a detailed overview of the dirty underside of an industry that can only exist because of powerful political and financial backing and the desire of its patrons to believe (and pay for) supposed medical interventions that have no basis in evidence. The narration is decently done and easy to follow. What everyone should know before they try alternative medicine In this book, Dr. Offit explains the origins, failings and fallacies behind many of the alternative medicine quackery that exist today. Unlike the practitioners of quackery, Dr. Offit shows the downside (the injuries, the deaths, the lies and deceptions not just the purported successes). Should be required reading at every high school Very informative book. Although he does come down hard on quacks and scammers, it really is a fairly balanced treatment by the end of the book. I can't help but feel we have all been lied to for many years by the alternative medicine industry.

Title: Extreme Measures Subtitle: Finding a Better Path to the End of Life Author: Jessica Nutik Zitter M.D. Narrator: Jessica Nutik Zitter M.D. Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 11 mins Language: English Release date: 02-21-17 Publisher: Penguin Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 45 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: An ICU and palliative care specialist featured in the Oscar-nominated Netflix documentary Extremis offers a framework for a better way to exit life that will change our medical culture at the deepest level In medical school, no one teaches you how to let a patient die. Jessica Zitter became a doctor because she wanted to be a hero. She elected to specialize in critical care - to become an ICU physician - and imagined herself swooping in to rescue patients from the brink of death. But then during her first code, she found herself cracking the ribs of a patient so old and frail it was unimaginable he would ever come back to life. She began to question her choice. Extreme Measures charts Zitter's journey from wanting to be one kind of hero to becoming another - a doctor who prioritizes the patient's values and preferences in an environment where the default choice is the extreme use of technology. In our current medical culture, the old and the ill are put on what she terms the end-of-life conveyor belt. They are intubated, catheterized, and even shelved away in care facilities to suffer their final days alone, confused, and often in pain. In her work Zitter has learned what patients fear more than death itself: the prospect of dying badly. She builds bridges between patients and caregivers, formulates plans to allay patients' pain and anxiety, and enlists the support of loved ones so that life can end well, even beautifully. Filled with rich patient stories that make a compelling medical narrative, Extreme Measures enlarges the national conversation as it thoughtfully and compassionately examines an experience that defines being human. Members Reviews: Brilliant & eye-opening For anyone who wants to know what "the end" really looks like, this book is must reading. In fact, it should be mandatory reading for anyone who is - or is related to anyone who is - mortal. And I think that covers ALL of us. Spoken by the author with visceral compassion, Dr. Zitter compresses her 20+ years in the ICU with so many you-are-there stories of patients and family members in end of life crises, it truly becomes a rallying cry for us to Do Something Now, even beyond Advance Directives. Thank you for telling it like it really is, Dr. Zitter! m A compelling new voice Physician writers don't often accomplish what Nutik Zitter has with Extreme Measures. This was as informative as it was moving. I'm left with a deep sense of gratitude for the work she has done and will continue to do. thoughtful I heard the author on a radio interview which prompted my purchase. the book was well organized with plenty of interesting case studies peppered throughout. thoughtful subject matter which was narrated well. a great albeit darker book. I recommend for sure Wonderful look into US ICU/palliative healthcare very impressed learned so much from this book. From what is wrong with the current healthcare model when dealing with the critically ill to what the future hold for these patients if the expansion, understanding and prevalence of palliative care continues. Her 1st hand stories where captivating and allowed me understand how people as well as healthcare professionals views change thought practice and presence in the field. How so many things are needed to keep in mind towards end of life care for everyone including practitioners.

Title: Plants and Herbs That Repair Lung Damage, Combat Infections, and Boost Lung Health Author: Beverly Hill Narrator: Wayne F. Perkins Format: Unabridged Length: 47 mins Language: English Release date: 01-18-18 Publisher: Patricia Carlisle Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: This audiobook contains proven steps and strategies on how plants and herbs will boost the immune system, promote healthy lungs, and fight colds and infections. Using herbs as a form of medicine has been done for thousands of years, and many people still use herbs, herbal remedies, teas, poultices, and supplements today to help keep their body healthy and to help take care of their families. Many people have started learning about plants and herbs - there are plenty of herbs which will actually do more than keep you healthy. Herbs can be used as a medicine alternative to high priced prescription drugs which often have risky side effects. Using herbs as medicine takes time and research, but it's well worth it. Herbs are much more gentle on your body, and they can be lifesaving for anyone who doesn't have health insurance because they're quite inexpensive to buy. Without your lungs, you couldn't breathe, and without breath, you cease to exist. The lungs are part of the respiratory system, working with other organs and tissues to help you breathe. Every cell in the body needs oxygen to live, and the lungs are what move oxygen into the bloodstream where it's carried throughout the body when you inhale. When you exhale, the waste, in the form of carbon dioxide, is removed. Your respiratory system is constantly working. It is the vehicle for oxygen to enter your body. Unfortunately, it can also be an entry point for pollutants, irritants, dust, mold, fungus, harmful organisms, and other toxins. Unless you're living in a bubble, the constant assault from impurities can take its toll. Fortunately, whether you're experiencing the negative effects of inhaling toxins or simply want to ensure your lungs are always at peak performance, nature has provided a number of herbs and botanicals that provide deep nutrition for the respiratory system. For centuries, the traditional medicine systems across the world have been using herbs to treat respiratory illnesses. Modern studies have acknowledged the effectiveness of a number of herbs in treating respiratory illnesses, repairing lung damage, and improving pulmonary function. They can be used as alternatives to pharmacological drugs to provide relief from lung problems.

Title: Over-the-Counter Natural Cures Subtitle: Take Charge of Your Health in 30 Days with 10 Lifesaving Supplements for under $10 Author: Shane Ellison, MS Narrator: Mike Chamberlain Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 11-04-14 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 68 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Americans are under attack. Obesity, lethargy, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer are ghastly epidemics. Worse, most drugs can make you even more sick! Why is this happening? Because no one tells you the truth: Millions of dollars are made by keeping this forbidden knowledge from you. Not anymore! Shane Ellison - known as the People's Chemist by his thousands of readers - knows the truth. A former chemist for Big Pharma, he quit when he discovered that the drugs he was creating for drug companies were nothing but toxins and that the real cures could be found on every supermarket and superstore shelf - for a fraction of the cost and without a prescription! Over-the-Counter Natural Cures is your insider guide to the inexpensive, easy ways to dramatically boost your health in less than thirty days and stay fit and lean forever! Members Reviews: Must Read/Listen To This Life Changing Book This book is nothing short of life changing, sure there will be naysayers out there, always are, but you will finish this book with the new mission of taking control of your health and healthcare and the food you eat and feed your family, day 3 for me following Shanes recommendations and I feel better than I have in ten or fifteen years, it feels insane to know it was this easy if only I had been aware, and embarrassing to know I was one of the sheeples who believed the health food, prescription, and supplement lies. Great! If you could sum up Over-the-Counter Natural Cures in three words, what would they be? Don't do drugs, cure yourself naturally with vitamins and minerals as you find in this book. Who was your favorite character and why? I was diagnosed with diabetes long time back but ignored it and recently had all kinds of problems from it just hit at once. I researched this book for the cure and with in about three weeks I was normalized again. Any additional comments? Your body wants to heal itself if you provide it the right materials. I have many audio books but this one I listen to the most. I have given it as a gift to a few friends. A Definite Recommended Read This guy seems to have the knowledge, experience, and has done the research. With that said I still always try to maintain a healthy level of skepticism. I definitely learned some new interesting things, which is rare for me because I have studied and sampled supplements A LOT! Ps- In all me experimenting 2 of my fav supplements have become Heathforce Acerola berry-1 tsp of the a day really brightens and clears up my skin, and Jarrow Curcumin95 for pain/inflammation (which I think he mentions in the book), I take 2 caps and it works as well as 400mg ibuprofen! Great Book !! I have read a lot of books on Natural Cures and I believe this is one of the best. Shane has the experience, knowledge and credentials in this area needed in order to be a very credible expert that can explain and convey this very important information to everyone. Do yourself and your family a big favor get this book read it and apply the information from within and you can have a safer, happier, and healthier quality of life.

The American Plague Audiobook by Molly Caldwell Crosby

Title: The American Plague Subtitle: The Untold Story of Yellow Fever, The Epidemic That Shaped Our History Author: Molly Caldwell Crosby Narrator: Paul Woodson Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 12-05-17 Publisher: Tantor Audio Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Over the course of history, yellow fever has paralyzed governments, halted commerce, quarantined cities, moved the U.S. capital, and altered the outcome of wars. During a single summer in Memphis alone, it cost more lives than the Chicago fire, the San Francisco earthquake, and the Johnstown flood combined. In 1900, the U.S. sent three doctors to Cuba to discover how yellow fever was spread. There, they launched one of history's most controversial human studies. Compelling and terrifying, The American Plague depicts the story of yellow fever and its reign in this country - and in Africa, where even today it strikes thousands every year. With "arresting tales of heroism," it is a story as much about the nature of human beings as it is about the nature of disease. Critic Reviews: "Gripping...highly readable." Newsweek Members Reviews: Thoroughly engrossing read I loved reading this text. I found it to be well researched, thoughtful, and provocative. Anyone interested in public health should read this book. I found it to be scary but a cautionary tale regarding sitting back with regard to disease. It also raises the issue of the increased threat of disease as a result of global warming Good read for the aspiring medical scientist! Outstanding look into a devastating smite of disease in Memphis, TN. At times, it was difficult to read for long periods, because the writing literally made me feel as though I was in the midst of a yellow fever epidemic. The book continues to describe the inspiring story of the medical scientists, who at great risks to themselves, relentlessly tracked down the origin of the disease, ultimately permanently handicapping yellow fever's ability to deal death to the thousands. Good read!!! Compelling and insightful. Deeply insightful, a compelling read. Well written, cautionary tale. Well worth the time for anyone. Riveting The story of the city of Memphis, Tennessee and it's battles with Yellow Fever in 1878. A story about men like Walter Reed and Carlos Finlay, who discovered that mosquitoes were the vector of transmission. Fever Lengthy very interesting account of the yellow fever epidemics throughout history. The various experiments used to determine its vector and spread.

Extreme Medicine Audiobook by Kevin Fong

biacuaduc@gmail.com (Kevin Fong) — Thu, 06 Feb 2014 05:17:29 GMT

Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/636/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Extreme Medicine Subtitle: How Exploration Transformed Medicine in the Twentieth Century Author: Kevin Fong Narrator: Jonathan Cowley Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 37 mins Language: English Release date: 02-06-14 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 233 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Little more than 100 years ago, maps of the world still boasted white space: places where no human had ever trod. Within a few short decades the most hostile of the world's environments had all been conquered. Likewise, in the 20th century, medicine transformed human life. Doctors took what was routinely fatal and made it survivable. As modernity brought us ever more into different kinds of extremes, doctors pushed the bounds of medical advances and human endurance. Extreme exploration challenged the body in ways that only the vanguard of science could answer. Doctors, scientists, and explorers all share a defining trait: They push on in the face of grim odds. Because of their extreme exploration we not only understand our physiology better; we have also made enormous strides in the science of healing. Drawing on his own experience as an anesthesiologist, intensive care expert, and NASA adviser, Dr. Kevin Fong examines how cutting-edge medicine pushes the envelope of human survival by studying the human body's response when tested by physical extremes. Extreme Medicine explores different limits of endurance and the lens each offers on one of the systems of the body. The challenges of Arctic exploration created opportunities for breakthroughs in open-heart surgery; battlefield doctors pioneered techniques for skin grafts, heart surgery, and trauma care; underwater and outer space exploration have revolutionized our understanding of breathing, gravity, and much more. Avant-garde medicine is fundamentally changing our ideas about the nature of life and death. Through astonishing accounts of extraordinary events and pioneering medicine, Fong illustrates the sheer audacity of medical practice at extreme limits, where human life is balanced on a knife's edge. Extreme Medicine is a gripping debut about the science of healing, but also about exploration in its broadest sense - and about how, by probing the very limits of our biology, we may ultimately return with a better appreciation of how our bodies work, of what life is, and what it means to be human. Critic Reviews: "A medical thriller of the first order." (Kirkus Starred Review) Members Reviews: Face transplants and interstellar travel? This audiobook was everything the description promised and more. It is about the boundaries we humans are always pushing, and the medicine and treatments that have necessarily arisen as a result. It doesn't sound very interesting to you? It certainly is! It covers, among others topics, what happens to us when we push the boundaries of travel to the far reaches of the Arctic, attempt deep sea diving, and even how our bodies might respond physically to interstellar travel. I especially enjoyed where the author described his days working for NASA. Equally fascinating were the discussions of the advent of heart surgery, effective burn treatment, and the first face transplant in the U.S. I could go on but if this seems interesting, get this book! It is a fast and very easy listen with a good narrator. EXTREME MEDICINE Kevin Fong, a physician, believes exploration and extreme medicine are linked. Fongs book, "Extreme Medicine", links exploration and medical advance with real-life stories of adventure, discovery; failure and success.

Title: Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) Provider Handbook Author: Dr. Karl Disque Narrator: Guy Thillet Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 55 mins Language: English Release date: 01-26-17 Publisher: ST Mastering Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: The Save a Life Initiative has just released its newest course: Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS). This manual is based on the 2015-2020 Pediatric Advanced Life Support guidelines published by the American Heart Association. The Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) Provider Handbook is a comprehensive resource intended for health care professionals currently enrolled in a Pediatric Advanced Life Support Certification or Recertification Course. It serves as the primary training material for PALS Certification and Recertification courses. Although it is primarily intended for use during certification courses, the handbook was also created to serve as daily reference material for health care professionals. Information covered in the handbook includes EKG and electrical therapy review, pediatric respiratory failure and more. Specific PALS algorithms and more are also included within the handbook. All material included in this handbook is delivered in a manner meant to enhance learning in the most comprehensive and convenient way possible. Members Reviews: otherwise a great concise reviewer for those who already know PALS There are some minor errors. In the chapter of shock, as pointed out by somebody ,otherwise a great concise reviewer for those who already know PALS. Good review Good review for up coming PALS class. Easy to follow format. Helpful algorithms for procedures and medications. The charts were hard to read on a version. One Star Not what I was looking for for paramedic school Many errors There are confusing statements especially in the chapter on Shock (i.e. some data in the tables do not correspond with text [distributive vs. cardiogenic]) and algorithms on the management of dysrrhythmias. Concise, basic review for those familiar with PALS Good, condensed review. Difficult to read charts and tables, especially drug dosing, even on a 32 inch monitor. Would not recommend to those taking PALS for the first time.

Title: Panic in Level 4 Subtitle: Cannibals, Killer Viruses, and Other Journeys to the Edge of Science Author: Richard Preston Narrator: James Lurie Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 51 mins Language: English Release date: 08-29-08 Publisher: Random House Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 237 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Panic in Level 4 is a grand tour through the eerie and unforgettable universe of Richard Preston, filled with incredible characters and mysteries that refuse to leave one's mind. Here are dramatic true stories from this acclaimed and award-winning author, including: Members Reviews: WAIT! Maybe this isn't what you think.... I wanted a book on killer viruses and deadly jungles. I wanted to be scared. When the book switches over to two Russian scientists trying to calculate pi, I waited for this to tie into viruses. Oops. This book is a collection of unrelated essays. One talks about the insects in trees, another about an ancient tapestry, and yet another discusses an odd kind of self-mutilating autism. Oh, and then there's the opening essay about viruses. I really think this book was designed to grab the Hot Zone audience and make us listen to other essays we wouldn't normally seek out. All the same, they were interesting and well written by a skilled journalist. Very interesting, but...eh....there are other books out there. Marvelous Tales from the Trade I have always founf myself transfixed by the works of Richard Preston. The Hot Zone and Demon in the Freezer scared me witless. This time, Mr. Preston has thrown some of his research data together into a type of short story format. Mr. Preston begins with the familiar Ebola virus and what he had to do to learn enough about it to write a book as frightening as Hot Zone. The he shifts gears and talks about two brothers and their obsession with the mystical number Pi. This is a wonderful tale of determination. From their you go on a journey in the woods of the Eastern US to discover how such very tiny insects and fungi are wiping out some of the largest trees in North America. Then there is the tale of how many became millionares while working on the human genome project, only to lose it all in only a few days. The last is my favorite. The tale of the Lesh-Nyhan syndrom. If you like reading about viral conditions, molecular studies, genetic mapping and very small numbers, give this book a listen. I find it well worth the time and the money. Thank you Mr. Preston! A book about how he wrote a book, but boring. In the first half of this pretty bad book the author tells stories about how he actually wrote a good book, The Hot Zone. It is like one of those "The Making Of ______" movies where all the actors tell you how they knew right away the movie would be a huge success. Those movies about making movies are boring. Imagine how much more boring it would be in book form. The title is misleading because the majority of the book has nothing to do with what is in the title. The author is obviously in a slump or in need of money as the quality here is way below what he has done in the past. Boring What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? By deleting the long introduction where the author tells you for 2 hours what he is going to tell you later in the book or what he has already told you in other books or articles. What could Richard Preston have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you? Just present the interesting science, don't tell the audience how you gather information and how you will tell us all about it in upcoming chapters.

What would have made Audio Learn: 2012 Medical Terminology better? If it was correct. There were many errors. It was boring. What could AudioLearn Editors have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you? Really? Just leave broke alone. Needed new narrator, information and honestly someone who is in the field to read medical terms. How did the narrator detract from the book? Maybe good for other books just not medical narrations. What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment? Very disappointed. I was hoping I could be engaged somewhat on my way to school. I was hoping it would help me study for my test on my long drive. WRONG! Any additional comments? This is a first. Audible has let me down. Good Med Terms book for price This is a short book, but it was under $8. I've been able to hear and learn some words and re-remember others I've read or studied in my textbook required for class. I've listened to it in the car while driving to and from work, and that's been good, unless I'm tired. there is no story line, or uses of the words, just a reading of the Med Terms. Again, still worth the new bucks it cost. its good but Any additional comments? i wish there was an accompanying kindle book that i could follow along with. other than that, it was well informative and not exactly what i had in mind - but i see its potential. i see how it can be THEE only book you will ever need. i just wish there was a quick-reference kindle book accompanying it too.

Members Reviews: mental health nursing I enjoyed the rationale section of these audible notes; however, the reviews were very vague and did not even talk about what illness went with what DSVM IV code, which I thought should have been expressed. They were no worth the money because they were to vague for me. good for the basics For my first Audible audiobook purchase, I am quire pleased. I'm a 3rd year nursing student who had a mental health course, and this did a nice job in explaining the basics of MH (bipolar disorder, depression, schizophrenia, abuse, suicidality...). However, I've found listening to this solely isn't enough to prepare onself for an exam since there are little details related to meds and interventions. My fave part... the practice question section at the end of each chapter and the definitions given at the beginning of each chapter. Everything was explained well, in simple words, which helped a ton. Happy studying!

This is the book that finally puts hope within reach. Doctors have generally overlooked the connections among the 4-A disorders, despite their concurrent rise and the presence of many medical clues. For years the medical establishment has considered autism medically untreatable and utterly incurable, and has limited ADHD treatment mainly to symptom suppression. Dr. Bock and his colleagues, however, have discovered a solution - one that goes to the root of the problem. They have found that deadly modern toxins, nutritional deficiencies, metabolic imbalances, genetic vulnerabilities and assaults on the immune and gastrointestinal systems trigger most of the symptoms of the 4-A disorders, resulting in frequent misdiagnosis and untold misery. Dr. Bock's remarkable Healing Program, drawing on medical research and based on years of clinical success, offers a safe, sensible solution that is individualized to each child to help remedy these root causes. Members Reviews: Five Stars Book was appreciated by a family member Great information. Will certainly help my nephew Great information. Will certainly help my nephew. Five Stars Great reading for anyone who has a child suffering from ADHD Autism spectrum disorders or Pans / Pandas. Five Stars Amazing book!

Anthropologist and ethnobotanist Wolf D. Storl vividly describes the many ways that ancient peoples have used the plants in their immediate environment, along with handed-down knowledge and traditions, to treat the variety of ailments they encountered in daily life. Members Reviews: not what I was expecting when it said anthropology I've only just started it and it seems to be less an anthropology book and more a bashing modern medicine and science kind of book. I regret not finding reviews before wasting a credit on it. I would really like my credit back.

Through her teachings and his own mind-bending experiences, he gives us a glimpse into an alternate reality. Members Reviews: Fascinating journey into Conjuring Being someone who is interested in Native American lore and their Stories and Natural Magic/Conjuring I was mesmerized by this book. It reminds me a bit of A Separate Reality by Carlos Castañeda but more about the Animal Spirits and how we interact with them. Good listen. If i had to choose one book It would be this book. Davids telling is humble in my opinion. he tried as much as he could not to shame what the old ways are while presenting their existence and importance. A different kind of book This is a narrative of one American Indian 1/2 breed who is led to learn the old ways of native medicine. It's very interesting, well told, great narration. It gets a little repetitive then ends. It starts out with a story then goes into "flashback" but the story isn't finished.,..the reader is never brought up to speed on the beginning situation. Still, very interesting listen. Crossing into medicine country Narration was very good. The story was nice but you lost me with all the terminology about flades? It began to sound a lot more like new age stuff rather than Native American. I'm not of the belief that Indians are much on numerology. Fantastic read! I really enjoyed this story! From beginning to end, it had me hooked. Highly recommended.

Prescription drug use in America has increased tenfold in the past 50 years, and over-the-counter drug use has risen just as dramatically. In addition to the dozens of medications we take to treat serious illnesses, we take drugs to help us sleep, to keep us awake, to keep our noses from running, our backs from aching, and our minds from racing. Name a symptom, there's a pill to suppress it. Modern drugs can be miraculously life-saving, and many illnesses demand their use. But what happens when our reliance on powerful pharmaceuticals blinds us to their risks? Painful side effects and dependency are common, and adverse drug reactions are America's fourth leading cause of death. In Mind over Meds, best-selling author Dr. Andrew Weil alerts listeners to the problem of overmedication, and outlines when medicine is necessary, and when it is not. Dr. Weil examines how we came to be so drastically overmedicated, presents science that proves drugs aren't always the best option, and provides reliable integrative medicine approaches to treating common ailments like high blood pressure, allergies, depression, and even the common cold. With case histories, healthy alternative treatments, and input from other leading physicians, Mind over Meds is the go-to resource for anyone who is sick and tired of being sick and tired. Members Reviews: Very informative and interesting. Excellent, as I expected from Dr Weil Yet again, Dr. Well has presented a brilliant collection of important information about how to make decisions which can really impact your life in a good way. Very informative this is a book that I will revisit over the years time and time again it is very informative and will never go out of date. Best Practices Approach to Taking Medications Great go-to resource. A must have in your library. Whether you take maintenance drugs or occasionally for a specific problem that arises, this book will help you understand what you are taking, why you are taking it, and what your options are for complimentary alternatives to get back to good health. great book...gives alot of insight medication loved it...I read all of doc. weils books..very informative on over medicating....makes one think of their overall health...we have one life to live..we might as well live it weil! out of date and bad advise This book wasnt for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more? someone who likes a good book of fiction. i exaggerate a little. book does have a lot of problems. What was most disappointing about Andrew Weil, MDs story? there is so much wrong with this book that i'm just going to focus on one small area. the author is constantly mixing up relative risk with absolute risk. statins at best prevents one heart attack per 100 over 5 years (absolute risk reduction 1%) not 33% (which author cites as if absolute risk reduction when in fact it is relative risk reduction). this is a "big effect" according to author because he is mixing up relative with absolute risk.

Hotze reveals what women of all ages can do to get relief and promote lifelong hormonal health through a combination of lifestyle changes, good nutrition, exercise, and natural hormone replacement.

The best book purchase I have made in a while The best book purchase I have made in a while. Melissa does a phenomenal job with this book on educating not only the patient, but the clinician as well. Well worth the investment. Its ok but no new info offered. I was expecting a little more facts and options from this book, more along the line of a text book. The book lingers on about the evils of the opiates , which to me could be said in one sentence, think we all accept that these are over prescribed. Found my self not concentrating on the book as it was repeating the same facts and not offering good options . That being said I'm glad the book was put together to get more people talking about it. Written in a conversational and easy to understand manner For those suffering with chronic pain and looking for an elusive answer, you can stop looking. Written in a conversational and easy to understand manner, âPaindemicâ is your road map. For those of us who treat chronic pain in our healthcare practices, this book will serve as your guide to the availability and range of interventions, and the scientific support for those interventions. This book clearly defines the utility of high tech, low tech and invasive treatments currently available for chronic pain sufferers, pulls back the curtain on the business of our healthcare system, and separates fact from fiction, opinion from science, in the treatment of chronic pain. Dr. Cadyâs message is clear: Fix the problem, donât chase the symptom. Thank you, Dr. Melissa Cady, for this concise, well-crafted and honest glimpse into the current world of chronic pain treatment.

In fact, it is vastly different from the world of even 10 years ago. The advances in the medical science field deserve the most praise. These advances have improved and enhanced treatment methods for the diseases and ailments that are ever more present in society. Out of these advances, cannabis oil has been one of the most effective and widely adopted medical treatment methods of the last century. Cannabis oil, also referred to as hemp oil, is greatly different from marijuana that individuals use to get "high" and even different from medical marijuana administered by medical professionals. The main component, the active ingredient in cannabis oil, is a cannabinoid by the name of Cannabidiol (CBD). The absorption of CBD by the body does not result in any psychoactive effects, such as a feeling of being "high" or "stoned." Rather, their effects on the body can be described as calming and soothing, both on a physical level which an individual can recognize as well as on a level beneath the skin. The active ingredient in Marijuana that is used for recreational or medicinal purposes, on the other hand, is Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). THC is the cannabinoid that induces the feeling of being "high" that is most often associated with all forms of cannabis. The reported benefits of cannabis oil vary greatly and span medical conditions such as cancer, epilepsy, insomnia, and high blood pressure. Cannabis oil has been touted by some as a "miracle treatment" for many conditions that simply did not have an effective treatment with minimal side effects available to consumers.

It can be overwhelming if you are trying to find honest, factual information because of all the random opinions out there on the Internet. You also have to be careful about the misinformation that is coming from online sources, especially those with financial incentives. This audiobook serves to be an unbiased guide, so that you can understand all of the important information before you invest money or time into trying "Shrooms". This book goes into the origins and history of mushrooms, how psilocybin works, the similarities and differences when compared to other similar "drugs", the positive and negative effects of consuming psilocybin, as well as the legality and dangers involved. By investing in this book, you can get a grasp of the topic, so that you can make a solid decision about what you put into your body, or even help other people in your life. Members Reviews: Irritating to listen to The man reading is pronouncing words wrong. The story itself is mundane and lacks any real information. You can find this information on Wikipedia. very informative Great, short book on mushrooms. Narrator could use more emotion on reading. He was monotonous too often. A shor but great introduction for the inquisitive Enjoyed the quick and easy review introducing the possibilities of shrooms. Liked it's comparison with other natural plant based psychoactives. Not very informative This didn't really present any credible scientific info that would be particularly useful in any academic conversation. I didn't look carefully before buying..... What would have made Magic Mushrooms better? The information seemed to be conjecture, speculation and personal opinion. I read the previous reviews but didn't notice it was only 33 minutes long. There is no possible way to adequately introduce this topic in that time. The comments and what is covered are arbitrary, random, and decidedly unscientific, questionable, and contradictory. It is incoherent in some parts and he what little information there is is repeated. Would you ever listen to anything by Colin Willis again? Unfortunately, no. What aspect of Kelly Rhodess performance would you have changed? Was fine. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Magic Mushrooms? Again, there is much personal opinion and conjecture. Any additional comments? Apologies for the negativity of this review, but I'm very sorry I wasted a credit on this. I cannot recommend it for any reason.

Title: Bad Pharma Subtitle: How Drug Companies Mislead Doctors and Harm Patients Author: Ben Goldacre Narrator: Jonathan Cowley Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 57 mins Language: English Release date: 02-05-13 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 136 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Medicine is broken. We like to imagine that it's based on evidence and the results of fair tests. In reality, those tests are often profoundly flawed. We like to imagine that doctors are familiar with the research literature surrounding a drug, when in reality much of the research is hidden from them by drug companies. We like to imagine that doctors are impartially educated, when in reality much of their education is funded by industry. We like to imagine that regulators let only effective drugs onto the market, when in reality they approve hopeless drugs, with data on side effects casually withheld from doctors and patients. All these problems have been protected from public scrutiny because they're too complex to capture in a sound bite. But Dr. Ben Goldacre shows that the true scale of this murderous disaster fully reveals itself only when the details are untangled. He believes we should all be able to understand precisely how data manipulation works and how research misconduct on a global scale affects us. In his own words, "the tricks and distortions documented in these pages are beautiful, intricate, and fascinating in their details." With Goldacre's characteristic flair and a forensic attention to detail, Bad Pharma reveals a shockingly broken system and calls for something to be done. This is the pharmaceutical industry as it has never been seen before. Critic Reviews: "A useful guide for policymakers, doctors and the patients who need protection against deliberate disinformation. ( Kirkus) Members Reviews: A must read for health professionals Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? yes What other book might you compare Bad Pharma to and why? Anatomy of an Epidemic. Both provide invaluable information about pharmaceuticals, both are scrupulously researched Which character as performed by Jonathan Cowley was your favorite? Like most people, I assumed that the process by which prescriptions meds were approved met the highest of scientific standards. I am a researcher by training and I understand that while meeting such standards is difficult, it isn't optional. Goldacre's review of the process is a bit dramatic in tone, but his facts are verifiable and his case is quite credible. As a psychologist, this information is particularly valuable to me. Most of my clients take some kind of medication, and all assume that these meds are proven safe and effective. The more I know about the efficacy and safety of medications, the better able I am to work with my clients and their doctors (many of whom ALSO assume all meds are safe and effective, compliments of the FDA) Read this book before you prescribe again What did you love best about Bad Pharma? The author pulls down the curtain of deception that has been held before our eyes by the drug makers. Here in one volume, the author tells the whole story of what they are really up to. There is no step in the process of bringing a drug to market that has not been corrupted. Step by step, the author systematically and thoroughly goes through all of the ways drug development and sales are adversely impacted by the drug industry.Very early in the book, I came realize that, because the medical literature is so corrupted, physicians (such as myself) do not have a true understand about the medicines we prescribe.

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 79 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: It's no secret that the US health care system is in a state of disrepair, but the rabbit hole goes deeper than even the staunchest critics may realize. In Primal Prescription, authors Doug McGuff and Robert Murphy combine their expertise in economics and medicine to offer a shocking, disturbing, and ultimately enlightening view into America's health care system. You'll discover the real history of what went wrong with US health care and insurance, and why current efforts to clean up the mess are only making things worse. But far from leaving you feeling helpless at the dismal - and sometimes deadly - state of affairs, Primal Prescription equips you with both the knowledge to understand the health care conundrum and the tools for navigating your way out of it. McGuff and Murphy offer an evidence-based "game plan" for taking control of your own medical care, protecting yourself and your loved ones regardless of what the future holds for the rest of the nation. Whether you're currently tangled in America's broken health care system or simply trying to avoid its clutches, Primal Prescription is a must-have resource for taking your health into your own hands. Members Reviews: good info. annoying narrator. What made the experience of listening to Primal Prescription: Surviving the 'Sick Care' Sinkhole the most enjoyable? What was the most compelling aspect of this narrative? Great to hear the specific case points and to hear Murphy's take on things. What didnt you like about Brad Kearnss performance? Narrator chortles whenever he encounters anything remotely ironic or striking. But, his voice and manner was otherwise very much appropriate. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? no Gawd awful listening. Would you consider the audio edition of Primal Prescription: Surviving the 'Sick Care' Sinkhole to be better than the print version? I have not read the print version, but I intend to. This audio version is a disgrace to the content. Brad Kearns reads way to fast to allow me to absorb the content of what he is reading. Then he includes annoying .....chuckles. Everywhere! We are talking about health care in America today. Its not even remotely amusing. I couldn't take much of this. In fact, it got even worse as the book went on. What was one of the most memorable moments of Primal Prescription: Surviving the 'Sick Care' Sinkhole? The solutions offered for some of our basic health care issue today. But, like I stated, I could not absorb the valuable content so I am returning this audio version and buying the book. America desperately needs this book. Shame on you for casting this reader. Excellent book, although I was unhappy with the narration. This book was great! I love the way they structured the information. Everything led up to the conclusion, which was, take control of the situation yourself. I will read this book again to make notes on how to organize my own health care. The narrator's frequent laughter, poor pausation, and inconsistent pronunciation was disturbing to the flow of thought. However, poor narration is better than no narration :-) Great book, lousy narration This is full of excellent, well written information on the primary illnesses of today's "health care" system.

Title: The Keystone Approach Subtitle: Healing Arthritis and Psoriasis by Restoring the Microbiome Author: Rebecca Fett Narrator: Pamela Almand Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 4 mins Language: English Release date: 08-24-17 Publisher: Franklin Fox Publishing Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: This groundbreaking new book examines the causes of psoriasis and arthritis and offers the most comprehensive and up-to-date protocol for reversing autoimmune disease. If you have psoriasis or inflammatory arthritis, it is crucial to understand how diet, gut health, and the microbiome can influence pain and inflammation. By learning which foods trigger flares and which foods help to calm the immune system, you can dramatically reduce the severity of symptoms and reclaim your health. In The Keystone Approach, acclaimed author Rebecca Fett draws on more than 400 scientific studies, along with her own battle with psoriatic arthritis, to provide a clear, evidence-based diet protocol. This innovative approach addresses the underlying causes of inflammation and autoimmunity, with a particular focus on healing the gut and re-balancing the microbiome. In The Keystone Approach, you'll discover: Members Reviews: Practical informed advice!! It has changed my life, really! Rebecca Fett has read hundreds of studies on inflammation and diet so we donât have to. It is beautifully written, elegant and informative On a very a practical level. I heartily recommend it!!! Fantastic Resource! Wow! As someone who's struggled with arthritis and lupus/fibromyalgia-like symptoms since I was six years old, I've done my fair share of searching for answers and clues on ways to naturally reverse the condition, yet I've never even heard most of the research findings cited in this book- what an eye opener! For me, it really points out the areas where I've gone wrong, and answers a lot of questions like why I still get flareups despite eliminating all processed foods over the years. I feel like now I have a more solid grasp of what to look out for, and changes I can start making right away to hopefully make a significant difference! In the book, the author covers a lot of potential triggers including food sensitivities, intolerances, and allergies, as well as OTC drugs and more, that can all have a profound impact on arthritis and pain symptoms. Based on the latest scientific findings regarding the gut microbiome and autoimmunity, she pieces together a fascinating puzzle of where and how these health issues begin in the body, and the most effective (and natural) ways to reverse the symptoms and restore gut health through diet change. Far from basing the book on general assumptions, she draws from a multitude of published research and trials (all sources cited), molding the science into an action plan, teaching readers the major causes of intestinal permeability, how to restore "keystone" species of probiotics in the gut, how to foster a healthy diversity of beneficial bacteria (including the best and worst strains of probiotics to take), as well as exploring the effects of diet on arthritis and psoriasis symptoms, covering the best and worst foods to consume and their effects on the gut (with some really surprising info!). As the heart and soul of the book, she includes a really solid diet plan based around the findings, with a multitude of recipes in the back. My only wish is that there had been more dietary advice for vegetarians like myself, since the diet is primarily based on vegetables paired with healthy meats and fish.

I think every human would respect others if they would work just six months at a hospital or just one Christmas season at a Wal Mart Five Stars Another great book from author Kerry Hamm. I would and have read all of her books. Five Stars Laugh out loud funny! Funny These are hilarious. If I hadn't heard stupid things in my own career,I wouldn't believe them. great book A funny and true read.

The 30-Day Heart Tune-Up Audiobook by Steven Masley

Title: The 30-Day Heart Tune-Up Subtitle: A Breakthrough Medical Plan to Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease Author: Steven Masley Narrator: Allan Robertson Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 8 mins Language: English Release date: 02-04-14 Publisher: Hachette Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 61 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: The revolutionary new program presented in this book helps everyone have a healthy heart. In The 30-Day Heart Tune-Up Dr. Masley will first help you to determine your heart health. He will then take you step-by-step through a program to tune up your heart, energy, waistline, and sex life. Cardiovascular disease is the #1 killer of Americans today, and while most doctors focus on lowering cholesterol and blood pressure they are overlooking the real culprit: growth of arterial plaque. Cholesterol-reducing statins treat some signs of heart disease, but not the most common cause of arterial plaque growth. Studies now show that the dramatic increase in pre diabetes, obesity, and the overuse of sugar and trans fat cause most heart disease. Dr. Masley explains the new state-of-the art tests available that can show arterial plaque growth at a much earlier stage-and what steps you can take to actually stop and reverse the growth. The good news is that everyone - regardless of size, genetics, gender, or age - can treat arterial plaque and prevent heart attacks and strokes with The 30-Day Heart Tune-Up. The keys to the program are shrinking arterial plaque, improving circulation, and strengthening your heartbeat using these tools: PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio. Critic Reviews: "In the spirit of Hippocrates, Dr Masley's empowering 30-Day Heart Tune-Up reveals how specific lifestyle changes rival the pharmaceutical approach to enhancing heart health.""Dr. Steven Masley brings his passion and experience to his comprehensive prescription for the prevention of heart disease.""We all know that the food we eat and the exercise we do is vital to our health. Dr Masley's has used his profound knowledge and experience to write an easy to understand practical book. It is Essential reading for any-one wishing to live a heart-healthy life.""Dr Masley's 30-Day Heart Tune-up is a state-of-the-art program for preventing and reversing heart disease. His breakthrough supplement recommendations will help all Americans tune-up not only their hearts, but their energy, their waistline, and their sex lives, too.""Not only will Dr. Masley's 30-Day Heart Tune-Up program be great for your heart, but it will be terrific for your sex life, too!""Take care of your heart and live long and well following Dr. Masley's simple, yet profound, advice. It's a program everyone can follow and I highly recommend it.""Dr Masley has made a career around helping patients achieve cardiovascular fitness in ways that are understandable and implementable. While making common sense inroads he also pushes the professional envelope and challenges the healthcare profession to do better. The overall aspects of this book are excellent and on target; eat well, get fit, manage stress.""Dr. Masley's program has the potential to be the "Heart Cure" America desperately needs. Get on this inspiring, breakthrough plan!""Many believe that the preventive and therapeutic aspects of heart disease is as complicated as rocket science. It's not! Dr. Masley has created a simple, easy, strategic plan to enhance cardiovascular healing.

Psycho-Cybernetics - Book Condensation Audiobook by Maxwell Maltz

Title: Psycho-Cybernetics - Book Condensation Author: Maxwell Maltz Narrator: John Wells Rood Format: Unabridged Length: 57 mins Language: English Release date: 07-28-15 Publisher: BN Publishing Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 96 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Dr. Maltz was a plastic surgeon and a humanitarian who truly cared about helping people. He had plenty of money, being one of the few plastic surgeons of his day. He unselfishly wrote this book from the center of his heart. His principles are based on some of his psychological experiences as a plastic surgeon. He saw low self-esteem as similar to the facial flaws of his plastic surgery patients and describes how you can fix your self-esteem to become a better you. He offers useful advice on how to avoid letting your negative thoughts make you a failure. He suggests how one's attitude alone can influence his or her success level. He also has ideas on how not to let the hateful, hurtful things people say keep you from the success you deserve. His book heals and teaches that one has control over his or her life and destiny. Dr. Maltz passed away some time ago, but his compassion for countless others lives on. Members Reviews: Hard To Imagine A Better Abridgment Excellent short version of this famous book. My guess is that it probably dates back to the 1970s, and that Dr. Maltz himself oversaw its production. Being very familiar with the material, I can say this is probably the best abridgment we're likely to get, even notwithstanding the very good Audio Renaissance version (2 CDs). Good luck finding that one--it's been out of print for awhile and used copies are at a premium. The narrator is very good, but I had to take off a star because the audio quality drops after about the first 10 or 15 min. Happily, its still listenable, but I had to crank up the volume to compensate. Couldn't BN Publishing have re-mastered this? This is a must for your Psycho-Cybernetics library. It touches on every major point in just under an hour. Excellent companion piece to Master The Magic Power of Your Self-Image Psychology and Interview With Dr. Maxwell Maltz. Really Good Information! The information was Great the last 30 minutes was so bad I ended up with headache. I think somebody could have fixed the audio with all this remastering technology available. If the the audio was better I would have give this a 5 star all the way around. One of my favorite books of all time Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Very informative and helpful. I like the narrator and the story. One of the best books written Rip off report! The first half of this book is great. The second half is not audible. It sounds like the reader is talking through a pillow. I want a refund! How do I go about this? wonderful great book. no-nonsense. workable. wonderful :) without all the fillers. I bought this because I got tired of all the stories in the 12-hour version and I don't regret it.

Reaching Down the Rabbit Hole Audiobook by Brian David Burrell, Dr. Allan H. Ropper

Title: Reaching Down the Rabbit Hole Subtitle: A Renowned Neurologist Explains the Mystery and Drama of Brain Disease Author: Brian David Burrell, Dr. Allan H. Ropper Narrator: Paul Boehmer Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 6 mins Language: English Release date: 12-30-14 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 86 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: "Tell the doctor where it hurts." It sounds simple enough, unless the problem affects the very organ that produces awareness and generates speech. What is it like to try to heal the body when the mind is under attack? Like Alice in Wonderland, Dr. Allan H. Ropper inhabits a world where absurdities abound: How does one begin to treat such cases, to counsel people whose lives may be changed forever? How does one train the next generation of clinicians to deal with the moral and medical aspects of brain disease? Dr. Ropper and his colleague answer these questions by taking the listener into a rarified world where lives and minds hang in the balance. Critic Reviews: "The author explores a wide variety of conditions, including the exterior degeneration of ALS and the often befuddling symptoms of advanced brain trauma, but he rarely falls into jargon and always keeps the narrative lively and engaging." ( Kirkus) Members Reviews: What An Absolute Surprise! I'd been ready to give this book 3-stars as, for 4-stars, a book has to be an engrossing cover-to-cover listen, and this wasn't. It'd been... too folksy? or something with its narration? But as I was kinda zipping through it again to get some stories for my review, well, talk about engrossed! One would've thought I'd never heard it before! It was so engaging! The things I liked about it before, I loved: people faking blindness and neurologists catching them out by sticking notes on their foreheads that read, "F- You," or by waving $100 bills around were there. The things I disliked, I passionately hated (hey, passion's a good thing!): glib mea culpas for what is really heinous malpractice--yup, still there, pretty cool. Emotionally evocative stories about two people facing the horrors of ALS in entirely different ways, and a man making a difficult, difficult decision that turns out to have a devastating outcome despite everyone's best efforts. These are all things a neurologist sees day in day out, and it's utterly fascinating. And heartbreaking. Yeah, sometimes the narration is quaint and folksy, but this book is really interesting, really a treat. Credit-worthy! Neuro Stories, Fascinating & Educational Anyone with an interest in medicine--especially anyone interested in neurology--would love this. I actually liked it even better than One Doctor, by Brendan Reilly (a book I liked so well that I gave a copy to our beloved family doctor of 26 years when he retired this year). The only downsides: the chapter on ALS goes on so long you'll be tempted to skip past it; the chapter on brain death vs body death annoyingly never even mentions cessation of heartbeat/pulse in a seemingly endless recitation of Ways Most People Would Judge Whether Somebody's Dead; and the narrator's delivery is jarringly cheerful at times in a way horribly at odds with the material, as in the chapter in which the author relates a particularly tragic and troubling tale of borderline malpractice. (The narrator also mispronounces several key medical terms in a way that will grate on the nerves of anyone who knows, for example, that Guillain-Barre is not pronounced "GEEL-on BAR-ray.") Otherwise: This is a solid, absorbing and supremely educational listen, and there are even a few laughs.

The Creative Destruction of Medicine Audiobook by Eric Topol

Title: The Creative Destruction of Medicine Subtitle: How the Digital Revolution Will Create Better Health Care Author: Eric Topol Narrator: Dick Hill Format: Unabridged Length: 12 hrs and 43 mins Language: English Release date: 03-19-12 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 142 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Until very recently, if you were to ask most doctors, they would tell you there were only two kinds of medicine: the quack kind, and the evidence-based kind. The former is baseless, and the latter based on the best information human effort could buy, with carefully controlled double-blind trials, hundreds of patients, and clear indicators of success. Well, Eric Topol isn't most doctors, and he suggests you entertain the notion of a third kind of medicine, one that will make the evidence-based state-of-the-art stuff look scarcely better than an alchemist trying to animate a homunculus in a jar. It turns out that plenty of new medicines - although tested with what seem like large trials - actually end up revealing most of their problems only once they get out in the real world, with millions of people with all kinds of conditions mixing them with everything in the pharmacopeia. The unexpected interactions of drugs, patients, and diseases can be devastating. And the clear indicators of success often turn out to be minimal, often as small as one fewer person dying out of a hundred (or even a thousand), and often at exorbitant cost. How can we avoid these dangerous interactions and side-effects? How can we predict which person out of a hundred will be helped by a new drug, and which fatally harmed? And how can we avoid having to need costly drugs in the first place? It sure isn't by doing another 400-person trial. As Topol argues in The Creative Destruction of Medicine, it's by bringing the era of big data to the clinic, laboratory, and hospital, with wearable sensors, smartphone apps, and whole-genome scans providing the raw materials for a revolution. Combining all the data those tools can provide will give us a complete and continuously updated picture of every patient, changing everything from the treatment of disease, to the prolonging of health, to the development of new treatments. As revolutionary as the past 20 years in personal technology and medicine have been - remember phones the sizes of bricks that only made calls, or when the most advanced "genotyping" we could do involved discerning blood types and Rh-factors? - Topol makes it clear that we haven't seen a thing yet. With an optimism matched only by a realism gained through 25 years in a tough job, Topol proves the ideal guide to the medicine of the future - medicine he himself is deeply involved in creating. Members Reviews: Very interesting, but in someways very naive. Where does The Creative Destruction of Medicine rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? Dr. Topol presents a very lively, and optimistic view of medicine and patterns that may advance it in the near future. The optimism espoused is very heavily dependent on technological advances (which is in many ways understandable), but the author doesn't address how to rid ourselves of our terrible health care delivery system.

Healing Psoriasis Audiobook by John O. A. Pagano

Pagano Narrator: Barry Abrams Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 35 mins Language: English Release date: 11-17-15 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 14 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: According to the National Psoriasis Foundation, at least seven million people in the US and more than 100 million worldwide suffer from this chronic skin disease. This audiobook outlines Dr. Pagano's natural, drug-free treatment regimen that can alleviate, control, and even heal psoriasis without steroid creams, tar baths, injections, or ultraviolet treatments. Healing Psoriasis outlines a healthy diet and lifestyle and includes case histories, recipes, and a chapter on eczema. Please refer to Appendix B in your PDF companion for menu plans and recipes. Members Reviews: Good guide on Psoriasis and Eczema I don't have psoriasis, but I have suffered from terrible eczema for over two decades. Since psoriasis, seb derm, acne and all of those conditions are very similar in their causes and symptoms, I was excited to find a book about psoriasis figuring maybe there was some info that would help an eczema sufferer as well. The narrator is very clear and well-spoken, however I found him to be a beat too slow for me. The listening experience was greatly improved when I sped it to 1.5 speed. As far as the content of the book, it's not poorly written, but it doesn't flow as well as other books. Still, you're not listening to this book for a deep, literary enlightenment; you're basically here to collect facts and ideas. This book has those and, though it doesn't mention anything about eczema in the title, eczema is mentioned and there is a section about eczema. I feel I gained some very helpful guidance from this book. It's definitely worth the price of admission, especially since there are not currently any other serious psoriasis/eczema type books on here except for the fake ones people piece together from internet articles, narrate, and call an 'audiobook.' This Pagano book is well researched and has decades of trial and error behind it. I like that he admits to the failures and how the program doesn't always work for everyone. A lot of these health books throw handfuls of anecdotes to make you think that snorting coconut oil and bathing in kerosene will cure all ills. No science only anecdotes. Did not finish. This is no science, just a bunch of anecdotes of people who he claims got better. Shameless amounts of self promotion. you need to read this book I have psoriasis...this book Explain why we have psoriasis. ...and you can learn to cure it or manage it ...

Rati Format: Unabridged Length: 46 mins Language: English Release date: 11-10-16 Publisher: Summary Station Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Contrary to popular opinion, if you have been diagnosed with type two diabetes or pre-diabetes, you need not resign yourself to a life of deteriorating health and complex regimens of testing and medications. Science and modern research show that a proper diet and exercise routine can absolutely reduce your blood sugar levels and keep them in the healthy range daily, freeing you from insulin dependence and the other drugs that facilitate the normalizing of your blood glucose day in and day out. We've heard an insistent drumbeat from the medical community, over the last 35 years, on the benefits of cutting fat from our diets; however, we'll show how that myth actually undermines vitality. Sustainable weight loss starts with a responsible nutritional plan which eliminates added sugars and bad fats, and which radically reduces simple, processed carbohydrates. This is a summary and analysis of the book and not the original book. Members Reviews: Recommened to read and to act on this diet Recommened to read and to act on this diet for every one how wants to live healthy informative gives a lot of information in 45 minutes and explains what additional information is available in the full book Useful summary however painful to listen to Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not? If you're thinking of buying the book it's a useful summary. However, I found it very difficult to listen to. Mispronounce words (lots) and not fluent. What does Ralph L. Rati bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you had only read the book? Nothing If this book were a film would you go see it? The book maybe the summary NO The narrator was Mispronouncing words Words the narrator couldnt pronounce properly included myriad, lipase, Mosley, legumes and no doubt a number of others which dont come to mind now. Good Book -!Awful narrator Ive read the full book and I wanted this condensed version to bush up on the facts. Sorry but the narrator is terrible and hard to listen to without wanting to block my ears.

Title: Incurable Me Subtitle: Why the Best Medical Research Does Not Make It into Clinical Practice Author: K. Paul Stoller MD Narrator: James Patrick Cronin Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 24 mins Language: English Release date: 12-05-16 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 22 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: In Incurable Me, a maverick physician brings transparency to some of medicine's most closely guarded secrets. As he establishes a link between commerce and medical research, K. P. Stoller also explains how to treat some of the most worrisome diseases and conditions afflicting humans today - including Lyme disease, brain trauma, dementia, and autism. Dr. Stoller maintains that the best evidence in medical research is not incorporated into clinical practice unless the medical cartel has the potential to make large amounts of money promoting the results of the research. Stoller takes his provocative argument a step further, maintaining that if specific research conflicts with a powerful entity's financial interests, the likely result will be an effort to suppress or distort the results. Stoller cites numerous examples, including corporate influence on GMO labeling and public health. Stoller also explores how "revolving-door-employment" between the Centers for Disease Control and large pharmaceutical companies can affect research results - as well as our health. Written in an accessible style that is thoroughly appropriate for a lay audience, Incurable Me is a must-listen for anyone interested in the state of modern medicine. Members Reviews: Read this book The information shared in this book is mind-blowing. The evidence is overwhelming. There really is no looking the other way. fantastic listen This book is a must buy, I'm in the research field so this is good stuff here. Tinfoil hat...or truth? Dr. Stoller has an ax to grind with the FDA, CDC, and Big Pharma, among others. A big, outraged, serious ax. He's furious with the way our medical system has been manipulated, and makes a convincing case that we have been used as guinea pigs over the decades. Considering the medical atrocities that have been committed by our government in the past (infecting men with syphilis; carrying out eugenics; performing forced sterilization, etc.) and the sloppy track record of the FDA, it is possible, and terrifying, that he may be right, or at least nipping at the heels of the truth. However, if you don't feel overwhelmed and defeated by the end of this book, I'd be surprised. Everyone is out to kill us, using everything imaginable -- burying information on Lyme disease, using vaccinations for population control, filling our teeth with mercury, poisoning the water with fluoride, spreading chemtrails through the atmosphere, feeding us GMO crops... There's a chapter at the end about detoxifying, but even though I'm a big fan of supplements and diet, I feel that most people will feel overwhelmed by this information and will close this book feeling angry and more confused than ever, especially when he often preludes his chapters with "an entire book could be written on this one subject." However, having fact-checked some of his claims, I've concluded that the grain of truth is there. For instance, Lyme disease may be a cause of Alzheimer's, and serious researchers have attempted to get funding for research and been shot down by the NIH. Dr. Alan MacDonald has an excellent three-part series on YouTube about Lyme research. Dr.

Title: The Perpetual Now Subtitle: A Story of Amnesia, Memory, and Love Author: Michael Lemonick Narrator: Kaleo Griffith Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 37 mins Language: English Release date: 02-07-17 Publisher: Random House Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 13 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: In the aftermath of a shattering illness, Lonni Sue Johnson lives in a "perpetual now" where she has almost no memories of the past and a nearly complete inability to form new ones. The Perpetual Now is the moving story of this exceptional woman and the groundbreaking revelations about memory, learning, and consciousness her unique case has uncovered. Lonni Sue Johnson was a renowned artist who regularly produced covers for The New Yorker, a gifted musician, a skilled amateur pilot, and a joyful presence to all who knew her. But in late 2007, she contracted encephalitis. The disease burned through her hippocampus like wildfire, leaving her severely amnesic, living in a present that rarely progresses beyond 10 to 15 minutes. Remarkably, she still retains much of the intellect and artistic skills from her previous life, but it's not at all clear how closely her consciousness resembles yours or mine. As such, Lonni Sue's story has become part of a much larger scientific narrative - one that is currently challenging traditional wisdom about how human memory and awareness are stored in the brain. In this probing, compassionate, and illuminating book, award-winning science journalist Michael D. Lemonick uses the unique drama of Lonni Sue Johnson's day-to-day life to give us a nuanced and intimate understanding of the science that lies at the very heart of human nature. Members Reviews: they author deviates too much. This is such an interesting subject, but somehow the author deviates from the main story too much. i just lost interest. too long This is a very long and detailed book. I would not recommend it. it was too technical.

They can be used for all sorts of reasons, not just weight loss, and it's true that many people will try one at some time in their life. It's also true that many will fail to lose any weight at all. One of the things which is often overlooked when someone is trying to combat things such as weight loss is the importance of amino acids, without which our bodies cannot survive. And now, in her new book, Rebecca Baird examines just what these important acids can do for us. From helping to cure depression, addictions, anxiety, and sexual issues to filling the complete nutritional requirements of both vegetarian and vegan diets, the significance of amino acids cannot be understated. With the added bonus of having absolutely no side effects whatsoever, the taking of these supplements without question form a win-win scenario. And recent studies in the United States suggest that a cure for breast cancer, which is the second biggest killer of American women, could be as simple as adding amino acids to your diet. With a complete list of the essential and non-essential amino acids, and the functions which they perform, this book will help make it easy to spot what your body may require to help you treat a wide variety of ailments. Members Reviews: lots of info. overwhelmed by L words but did get me taking amino acids if there's enough info on it then must need it.

The Other Side of Impossible Audiobook by Susannah Meadows

Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/636/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: The Other Side of Impossible Author: Susannah Meadows Narrator: Cassandra Campbell Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 28 mins Language: English Release date: 05-02-17 Publisher: Random House Audio Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 19 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: True stories about people who triumphed over seemingly impossible medical diagnoses using untraditional, inventive therapies and perseverance - and about what scientists are discovering on the psychology of healing and the mind-body connection - from the author of the New York Times Magazine article about her own son, "The Boy with the Thorn in His Joints", which led to this book about other families. Members Reviews: Better alternatives available It is hard to know how to review this book. The writer is talented. However, the downsides are significant. The stories vary quite a bit. Some rely on the well-documented relationship between health and nutrition, including various diets that have become widely adopted (i.e. the Paleo Diet). Others seem to be a bit more quackery, where the described patient gets well through a series of seeming psychological changes. The latter are hard to take seriously. I also found it a bit off-putting how every story, minus Dr. Wahls', seem to come from upper class individuals with enormous resources to investigate their health issues. Where were the stories from everyday Americans not on the East Coast? The narration is also a bit hard to take. She has the NPR voice. If you can listen to NPR for 10+ hours, you can listen to this book. Perhaps it was the narrative style of the writing that exacerbated this. Overall, this is not a book I would recommend to others beginning on their health journey. If the writer had used more consistent stories, I might say otherwise. So very informative I love the style of how she made me feel part of the book ; Timely Well written and easily understood by those people that need it most. An even handed approach to the prevailing science. A crack in the wall that will allow energy medicine to take its rightful place integrated in and as a complement to Western medicine. Brave people refusing to take no for an answer I really enjoyed the families showcased and the dedication shown in seeking cures when the odds were so against them. I was sorry to see it end. Inspiring.

The End of Illness Audiobook by David B. Agus

Agus Narrator: Holter Graham Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 35 mins Language: English Release date: 01-17-12 Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 276 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Can we live robustly until our last breath? Do we have to suffer from debilitating conditions and sickness? Is it possible to add more vibrant years to our lives? In The End of Illness, David B. Agus, MD, one of the worlds leading cancer doctors, researchers, and technology innovators, tackles these fundamental questions, challenging long-held wisdoms and dismantling misperceptions about what health means. With a blend of storytelling, landmark research, and provocative ideas on health, Dr. Agus presents an eye-opening picture of the human body and all of the ways it works - and fails - showing us how a new perspective on our individual health will allow each of us to achieve that often elusive but now reachable goal of a long, vigorous life. When Dr. Agus decided to pursue a career in oncology, many of his mentors questioned his choice. Why, they asked, would a promising young doctor want to enter a field known for its inescapably grim outcomes? But it was precisely the lack of progress that inspired Dr. Agus to join the war on cancer. He moved away from the modern methods of the medical establishment, which aim to reduce our afflictions to a single point. Instead, as he does in this book, Dr. Agus argues for the adoption of a systemic view - a way of honoring our bodies as complex, whole systems. This outlook informs how we can avoid all illnesses - not just cancer. Dr. Agus empowers us to take charge of our individual health in personal, customized ways we could not have imagined before. This indispensable book is not only a manifesto - a call for revising the way we think about health - its also filled with practical but impossible-to-ignore suggestions, including: Critic Reviews: In this brilliant book, David Agus introduces a whole new way of looking at illness and health. Taking a cue from physics, he views the body as a complex system and helps us see how everything from cancer to nutrition fits into one whole picture. The result is both a useful guide on how to stay healthy and a fascinating analysis of the latest in medical science. (Walter Isaacson, author of Steve Jobs) Dr. David Agus has given us a remarkable peek into our health - and the impact will be profound. Ive made it my mission in life to live strong and help others do the same. The End of Illness is one more empowering piece to the puzzle of knowing how to do just that. This book will prevent illness, revolutionize treatments, and lengthen people's lives. A tour de force in its delivery and message. (Lance Armstrong, 7-time Tour de France winner and Founder and Chairman, LIVESTRONG) "David Agus is one of Americas great doctors and medical researchers, a man dedicated to improving the health of as many people as he can. Written in a style and format that will truly engage readers, The End of Illness presents a dramatic, new way of thinking about our own health - a way that could lead to greatly improving the quality of life for millions, starting right now. (Al Gore, 45th Vice President of the United States, Nobel Laureate in Peace, 2007) Members Reviews: The "techie" medicine needs! This book is filled with practical information that us lay-folk never think about. The primary argument is that medicine is finally able to take advantage of the technological advances in used in other fields. Incidentally, Dr. Agus' company happens to be on the leading edge.

Title: This Common Secret Subtitle: My Journey as an Abortion Doctor Author: Susan Wicklund Narrator: Robin Miles Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 47 mins Language: English Release date: 03-03-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 33 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: In This Common Secret, Dr. Susan Wicklund chronicles her emotional and dramatic twenty-year career on the front lines of the abortion war. Growing up in working class, rural Wisconsin, Wicklund had her own painful abortion at a young age. It was not until she became a doctor that she realized how many women shared her ordeal of an unwanted pregnancy - and how hidden this common experience remains. This is the story of Susan's love for a profession that means listening to women and helping them through one of the most pivotal and controversial events in their lives. Hers is also a calling that means sleeping on planes and commuting between clinics in different states - and that requires her to wear a bulletproof vest and to carry a .38 caliber revolver. This is also the story of the women whom Susan serves, women whose options are increasingly limited. Through these intimate, complicated, and inspiring accounts, Wicklund reveals the truth about the women's clinics that anti-abortion activists portray as little more than slaughterhouses for the unborn. As we enter the most fevered political fight over abortion America has ever seen, this raw and powerful memoir shows us what is at stake. Members Reviews: A FEMINIST MUST An amazing read. Susan Wicklund documents our fight for choice in an easy-to-read, empathetic, and captivating novel that has made me both laugh and cry. I have recommended this book to every feminist and every woman I know who is on the fence about reproductive rights. This highlights our need for affordable, safe, accessible, legal abortions. The writing isn't the best (hence the four instead of five stars) but the ... A cautionary tale about what it can mean to be an abortion provider, in days past and maybe again soon. The writing isn't the best (hence the four instead of five stars) but the facts in it are all true and chilling. Stories like Dr. Wicklund's should be more widely known. Fascinating book. I couldn't put it down -- finished ... Fascinating book. I couldn't put it down -- finished it in two days. I highly recommend this book A truly eye opening book to what really goes on in those troubling situations. I highly recommend this book. An important read Great book on an important subject. The writing was a little uneven, which becomes clear in the acknowledgements - it was written with or by a ghost writer. I think this accounts for the odd voice at times. Regardless, the content is so important. Every person who is thankful for reproductive rights should be aware of the individual sacrifices that have been made on their behalf, and this book is an excellent portrait of one woman's enormous contributions.

ADHD Nation Audiobook by Alan Schwarz

Title: ADHD Nation Subtitle: Children, Doctors, Big Pharma, and the Making of an American Epidemic Author: Alan Schwarz Narrator: Jonathan Todd Ross Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 54 mins Language: English Release date: 09-06-16 Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 111 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: A groundbreaking and definitive account of the widespread misdiagnosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and its serious effects on children, adults, and society. More than one in seven American children are getting diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) - three times what experts have said is appropriate, making it one of the most mishandled and debated conditions in medicine. The numbers are rising every year. Now doctors and Big Pharma are targeting adults and the rest of the world to get diagnosed with ADHD and take medications that will "transform their lives". In ADHD Nation, Alan Schwarz takes listeners behind the scenes to show the roots and rise of this cultural and medical phenomenon: There's the father of ADHD, Dr. Keith Conners, who spends 50 years pioneering the disorder and use of drugs like Ritalin before realizing his role in what he now calls "a national disaster of dangerous proportions"; a troubled young girl and studious teenage boy who get entangled in the growing ADHD machine and take medications that cause them serious problems; and a pharmaceutical industry that egregiously overpromotes the disorder and earns billions from the mishandling of children (and now adults). While demonstrating that ADHD is real and can be successfully medicated, Schwarz sounds an alarm and urges America to wake up and address this growing national problem. Members Reviews: Adroitly written and expertly narrated What did you love best about ADHD Nation? I appreciated the author's in depth research and determination to be sensitive to the subject matter and not just settle for easy answers. Over the course of the book, he highlights the problems attached to the over-diagnosis of ADHD and the mindset of parents, doctors, and educators to medicate children as an easy answer rather than looking for other avenues of treatment, but he does not do this to the detriment of those who actually suffer from ADHD. This makes the book richer than it would otherwise be, by admitting that it is a real condition that requires real treatment (sometimes via prescription medicines), but that it doesn't mean every diagnosis is made in a thoughtful and ethical way. Any additional comments? 4.5 stars. Fascinating, infuriating, frustrating, and unforgivable. This even-handed, engagingly-written look at ADHD, treatment, childhood, doctors, and pharmaceutical interests is eye-opening and should spurn any reader to do some serious soul-searching when it comes to how we engage with medicine, how mental conditions are diagnosed, and what happens when a disproportionate part of the equation is not health but profits, not normal development but shortcuts, not seeing patients as a whole person but seeing them as a problem to be solved (preferably with a pill). A must-read. Diagnosis in the Interest of Conformity What did you love best about ADHD Nation? Excellent writing(rarely seen or heard in this age of technology) and the exposure of a problem in the way American children,in particular are raised. Children/adolescents/college students and even adults of all ages are told that they have a disorder of cognition. The Bible of Mental Health clinicians has expanded from a pamphlet sized document to a tome too hefty to lift. Different does not mean defective.

It covers basic clinical significance, transmission, some characteristics & common treatment. Does not include any parasitology. The most time is spent on viruses. Less than 2 hours of material. not as in depth as you need to know for the boards provides a decent overview of micro but not in depth enough. for this you would need to supplement. Inaccurate I bought this book so I could continue studying whilst on the move - it was a waste of money. The 'facts' were inaccurate. A good quick go-through for who want to review microbiology There were not much detailed contents regarding pathogenesis for sure, but it's good for people wanna spend a little time on reviewing some general information about different pathogens. I used it last year when doing microbiology and still found it pretty good to just refresh the memory a bit.

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 18 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: The definitive guide to heart health from two of Americas most respected doctors at Cleveland Clinic, the number-one hospital for cardiac care in America. Are you one of the 82 million Americans currently diagnosed with cardiovascular disease - or one of the millions more who think they are healthy but are at risk? Whether your goal is to get the best treatment or to stay out of the cardiologists office, your hearts health depends on accurate information and correct answers to key questions. In Heart 411 two renowned experts, heart surgeon Marc Gillinov and cardiologist Steven Nissen, tackle the questions their patients have raised over their decades of practice: Can the stress of my job really lead to a heart attack? How does exercise help my heart, and what is the right amount and type of exercise? What are the most important tests for my heart, and when do I need them? How do symptoms and treatments differ among men, women, and children? Backed by decades of clinical experience and up-to-the-minute research, yet written in the accessible, down-to-earth tone of your trusted family doctor, Heart 411 cuts through the confusion to give you the knowledge and tools you need to live a long and heart-healthy life. Marc Gillinov, MD, is a staff cardiac surgeon at the Sydell and Arnold Miller Family Heart and Vascular Institute at Cleveland Clinic. Steven Nissen, MD, is the chairman of the Robert and Suzanne Tomsich Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at Cleveland Clinic. Critic Reviews: As a heart disease survivor, I look for the best information I can find, and Ive found it in Heart 411. It is essential reading for patients like me, as well as those who want to keep their heart healthy. In a world filled with conflicting information, Drs. Gillinov and Nissen separate fact from fiction, providing patients and their families with easy to use tools to understand heart disease and find the best possible care. It has become my go-to book!

Gillinov and Nissen provide a delightful blend of the latest research, moving experiences with patients at the renowned Cleveland Clinic, and warmth and humor to show each of us how to live a longer, healthier, and happier life.

If you want to take care of your heart, read this book! Highly Recommended This book is clear, precise, thorough, and highly informative. It is particularly valuable in helping one to understand how to evaluate the numerous medical claims that appear in the media. The book does not seek to frighten but to give each reader the power to understand the human heart and to be a better patient.

Title: At Death's Door: End of Life Stories from the Bedside Author: Sebastian Sepulveda MD, Gini Graham Scott Narrator: Marlin May Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 55 mins Language: English Release date: 12-22-17 Publisher: Beacon Audiobooks Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: At Deaths Door: End of Life Stories from the Bedside tells the powerful story of Sebastian Sepulvedas experiences in working with patients at the end of their lives. In some cases, death came quickly, after the patient was first diagnosed with a terminal condition and entered the hospital. In other cases, patients had a long, progressive illness that got increasingly worse over the months or years until they were in their final days. In some cases, patients were able to fight off death for many years. Hard decisions are often made - whether to resuscitate or not, whether to choose hospice or not, who makes the decisions when a patient cannot, and whose decision to follow when several family members are involved in decision making. Written from the perspective of a medical doctor from years of experience, this personal approach to the end of life explores the many options available to patients and their families and reveals how real people have come to those decisions, and how they play out. With insight and sensitivity, Sepulveda offers families an important window into how life can end with compassion, care, control, and dignity. At Deaths Door features over 50 stories drawn from Sepulvedas experience as a doctor dealing with these patients and families. As states debate the legality of assisted suicide and other end-of-life rights, real people make real decisions every day regarding end of life. Their stories come to life here, and listeners with similar concerns will find relief, comfort, and company as they face these decisions themselves.

Title: The Heart Healers Subtitle: The Misfits, Mavericks, and Rebels Who Created the Greatest Medical Breakthrough of Our Lives Author: James Forrester MD Narrator: Jonathan Yen Format: Unabridged Length: 15 hrs and 45 mins Language: English Release date: 09-29-15 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 49 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: At one time heart disease was a death sentence. By the middle of the 20th century, it was killing millions, and, as with the Black Death centuries before, physicians stood helpless. Visionaries, though, had begun to make strides earlier. On September 7, 1895, Ludwig Rehn successfully sutured the heart of a living man with a knife wound to the chest for the first time. In 1929 Dr. Werner Forssman inserted a cardiac catheter in his own arm and forced the X-ray technician on duty to take a photo as he successfully threaded it down the vein into his own heart...and lived. And on June 6, 1944 - D-Day - another momentous event occurred far from the Normandy beaches: Dr. Dwight Harken sutured the shrapnel-injured heart of a young soldier and saved his life, and thus the term "cardiac surgeon" was born. In The Heart Healers, James Forrester, MD, tells the story of these rebels and the risks they took with their own lives and the lives of others to heal the most elemental of human organs: the heart. The result is a compelling chronicle of a disease and its cure, a disease that is still with us but one that is slowly being worn away by the "heart healers". Critic Reviews: "It's a book of marvels." ( Publishers Weekly) Members Reviews: Great review of the landmark achievements in Cardiology. This was a great book. The author did a great job presenting his life and the modern development of cardiology. As a nurse practitioner I found all this information very interesting and came away with a much better understanding of why we do what we do in modern medicine. The performance was great and I wish Jonathan Yen would do more recording. Fantastic If you could sum up The Heart Healers in three words, what would they be? So informative! What other book might you compare The Heart Healers to and why? None Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? Some ah hah moments Any additional comments? I learned so much from this book. The final chapters were packed with useful information. I plan to read it again. So informative! I never wanted to put this book down! It is a comprehensive history of cardiology which perfectly tells the story of how procedures we take for granted today came to be. It is fascinating, captivating, and so very relevant. one of the best in medical hitory Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Yes What was one of the most memorable moments of The Heart Healers? every moment in the book was awe inspiring What does Jonathan Yen bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? I loved the narration Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? It made me laugh and cry A Surgeon's Illness Compared to Emperor of All Maladies, this book was more people-oriented. It is also more surgery-oriented because heart disease tends to be caused by mechanical defects amenable to surgical interventions. Drugs mostly play a supporting role - dissolving clots and reducing cholesterol. Cellular/molecular details of the illness are mostly neglected as they feature less prominently and more recently. My impression from both books is that surgeons are, as you would expect, the jocks of the medical profession.

Wright, MA Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Growth hormone (GH) is a hot topic. It seems that all of the movie stars, celebrities, and body-builders are taking it, and they look fantastic. Baby boomers interested in anti-aging are taking it and saying that it keeps them young. But you may have heard that it is expensive... and dangerous. So what's the story? What are your options? Do you need it? Should you take it? How do you use it? Can you afford it? How can you raise GH naturally? Secrets About Growth Hormone shows you how growth hormone levels drop as we get older, when to intervene, and what treatment options are available to optimize your health. Carefully listen to this audiobook before making any decisions about using GH supplements. I wish that I had been given this information eight years ago when my friends were encouraging me to inject a growth hormone stimulator to help me feel better. My problem was that I had finally collapsed into utter exhaustion, unable to do much of anything for months at a time. I felt hopeless, angry, and confused. So I decided to give the growth hormone stimulator injections a try. They made me feel fantastic! But two months later, I ended up in a dreadful surgery to remove a deadly cancer from my nose. Luckily, the universe gave me a second chance at life. I made a decision right then and there to find out everything that I could about hormones before I ever messed around with my own hormones again. In my search for answers, I discovered that: Members Reviews: Three Stars I was disappointed, the material was old..

I had a very high diastolic blood pressure and by the time I was done with this book the supplements they recommended had helped me achieve Bp readings like 100/70, 104/68, and 110/74. I couldn't be happier. High blood pressure and heart disease is pretty bad on both sides of my family but I'm the only one not taking any medications. I also have way more energy than I used to have after taking the recommended supplements. A great book well delivered Where does Reverse Heart Disease Now: Stop Deadly Cardiovascular Plaque Before It's Too Late rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? This book was very interesting and easy to follow, a great insight on how the heart functions and the best way to keep it working well. What about Kevin Pierces performance did you like?

DeRose and Steinke along with Nurse Practitioner Li draw from cutting-edge medical research and their decades of clinical experience to guide you on an amazing 30-day journey. Learn simple natural strategies that have helped many people decrease or eliminate their dependence on medications. Other titles may promise fast results with natural blood pressure strategies but few, if any, are as comprehensive and practical as this one.

Its user-friendly style combines a wealth of real-life stories taken from a variety of medical clinics and patient encounters. Members Reviews: Too Much "Backstory!" If you could sum up Thirty Days to Natural Blood Pressure Control in three words, what would they be? TOO Much Background! What was one of the most memorable moments of Thirty Days to Natural Blood Pressure Control? Say What? What aspect of David DeRoses performance would you have changed? I'll have to think about this and get back w/you...o/w listen to the "sample" and see for yourself... Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I would have settled for either... Any additional comments? I believe this is a worthwhile audiobook/ either mode...I just began to listen and found Way Too Much intro, e.g. What BP is and how dangerous hypertension can be...The helpful stuff doesn't start until about chaper 5 or 6... So, If you're listening to/reading this book, you Already KNOW that! An intro of nothing more that, "You've been told you have high blood pressure, and here's a way to help get it lower..." That's All...The scary sudden death stories, believe me, we've all heard 'em... BTW, print book is a bit pricey...the publisher should see if a lesser priced, e.g. $9.95 or lower could be offered...and,Not everyone has an "e-reader." Take Care! 5 star loved it very good book easy to understand. reccomend it because its natural no side effects

Hooked Audiobook by Arwen Podesta

Title: Hooked Subtitle: A Concise Guide to the Underlying Mechanics of Addiction and Treatment for Patients, Families, and Providers Author: Arwen Podesta Narrator: Wendi Berman Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 5 mins Language: English Release date: 11-18-16 Publisher: Dog Ear Publishing Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Addiction is a complex problem, with social, psychological, and biological underpinnings. The scope of the problem is at epidemic proportions. Thanks to decades of scientific research, we are better equipped than ever to comprehend the causes, complications, and effective social and medical treatments for addiction. Navigating the physical, medical, emotional, and social aspects of addiction can be overwhelming to patients, families, and even treatment providers. Many publications deal with this topic, however most are thin pamphlets or thick scientific treatises. This short book concisely and clearly answers the questions that students, patients, and their loved ones ask: What is addiction? Why do we care about it? Why do some people get addicted and others do not? What do we do about addiction? This book, created by Arwen Podesta, MD, is medically minded but accessible to all listeners, and will answer these questions and more. Members Reviews: Short, honest, matches my experience My adult child has undergone a program of medicated treatment and counseling with Dr. Podesta and her staff for several years. She has responded well, is working and enjoys a solid relationship with her siblings. While Suboxone has been a legal means to treat her addiction to opiates it has seemed over six years to inhibit her full engagement with all that life has to offer. It's difficult to describe, but she can stand at a distance from full societal interaction on this drug. To be fair this undoubtedly involves more than just the Suboxone. As Dr. Podesta argues in her book success in treatment is measured in terms of where the patient began and how far they have come. As AA says, "progress not perfection." No doubt I have seen my daughter go from a life of illicit drug use and reckless behavior to becoming a law abiding-functioning adult during her treatment. Her faith in her physician, her counseling and medication is absolute. This short book is candid, not overly technical and extremely informative. I would strongly recommend any parent who is struggling with a child or relative who is chemically addicted to read it, highlight it and keep it within arms reach. Just brilliant! Once I started reading Hooked I couldn't put it down. It answered every question I've ever had about addiction and what to do about it. With hundreds of books and many different (and often conflicting) theories on addiction it can be confusing and overwhelming to try to decide what path to take for treatment. Finally, a no blame, no shame book that offers the most current information that makes sense. As a therapist and an expert in the field at the biological basis of personality I was very impressed with the science presented in this book. I recommend it to all of my clients who have an addiction or have a loved one, friend or colleague who does. So far, everyone of them has found Hooked to be straightforward and easy to understand and utilize. Thank you Dr. Podesta for creating a seminal piece of work that can help lay people and professionals in the field understand the dynamics of addiction and what to do about it. Dr. Tina Thomas Well written and well rounded primer This book covers a number of addiction related topics, including the mechanisms and types of treatment on a level most of us can understand.

Title: A Leg to Stand On Author: Oliver Sacks Narrator: Jonathan Davis, Oliver Sacks - introduction Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 6 mins Language: English Release date: 06-21-11 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 67 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Dr. Oliver Sacks' books Awakenings, An Anthropologist on Mars, and the best-selling The Man Who Mistook His Wife For a Hat have been acclaimed for their extraordinary compassion in the treatment of patients affected with profound disorders. In A Leg to Stand On, it is Sacks himself who is the patient: an encounter with a bull on a desolate mountain in Norway has left him with a severely damaged leg. But what should be a routine recuperation is actually the beginning of a strange medical journey when he finds that his leg uncannily no longer feels like part of his body. Sacks's brilliant description of his crisis and eventual recovery is not only an illuminating examination of the experience of patienthood and the inner nature of illness and health but also a fascinating exploration of the physical basis of identity. Critic Reviews: "A neurologist in [the] great tradition... [this is] a narrative comparable to Conrad's The Secret Sharer." (The New York Review of Books) "In calling for a neurology of the soul and a deeper and more humane medicine, Sacks's remarkable book raises issues of profound importance for everyone interested in humane health care and the human application of science." (The Washington Post Book World) Members Reviews: A very rewarding read but Not for everybody. While this is a fine book with an amazing true story, I feel the need to put out a word of caution. The degree to which sachs goes off on his poetic existential meanderings in this book is excessive . It requires patience and a fair amount of concentration to get through these unfortunately verbose tirades. An editor really should have tightened it up. This book does have a great story and immense insight that should be heard by everyone. It will be of particular value to doctors, nurses and caregivers. I really love sacks work but his verbosity gets to be too much at times. Not sure what he was trying for here Audible just brought this one out in audio, a year or so after Sacks' latest "The Mind's Eye"; my library didn't have a print copy of "Leg", so I spent a credit on it. Both books deal with the issue of doctor-as-patient, but this one's less approachable. Once he's rescued in Norway, and sent off to Britain for treatment, the story becomes progressively more inward and self-absorbed. I was interested when he veered towards the mind-body connection in healing, but otherwise his thoughts were just that ... thoughts. Not very focused ones either - not quite metaphysical, not really philosophical, and a little medical stuff thrown in. For Sacks fans only, those new to his stuff would probably never read another. Narration helped me keep going when the going got kind of tough. If you plan on being a health care professional There is so much to gain from the Oliver's stories. For me, Sacks's articulations help me to potentiate and mature my ability to empathize. His description of events also help me comprehend the significance of other peoples personal experiences. This is great book for people walking the path of profound maturity. Oliver is a Genius Makes you a genius if you listen or at least feels that way. All his books are my favorite ever! Was disappointed I thought the performance was great and engaging.

A review of these questions, along 400+ questions in CNA Exam Prep Volume 1, will completely prepare the CNA students to challenge their state exams. Members Reviews: Too many 'fill in the blank' questions for my taste I've already purchased a few CNA study guide books. This one had way too many 'fill in the blank' questions. I prefer study guides with A,B,C or D study questions. Sure, the questions are on the back, but still, the flipping back and forth got tiring. But once you get past hours of filling in the blanks, then the book is useful enough. Its my least favorite study guide. Would I buy another book from this Jane John-Nwanko again? Probably, especially if you want to study everything you can get. Almost seems like someone just copied pasted the questions cause for some ... Lots of typos and I found an error on question 100 section 2 of volume 1. There might be more errors that I haven't caught. Almost seems like someone just copied pasted the questions cause for some questions the fonts are different as well as the size of the letters. No idea how this got a good review. Five Stars Good read and practice ! Five Stars Useful and informative! CNA Exam Prep Volume 2 helped me a lot in my exams, I'm trying to be a nurse and in a nursing school. Because of my part time work and school, i have a hard time catching up but with CNA Exam Prep Volume 2, it made my studies much easier and quicker! For those who're studying nursing as well, i recommend this to you guys!

Every year, over 22 million women in the United States suffer from migraine headache, often debilitating attacks that can leave the sufferer bedridden and that, in many cases, can undermine both one's career and even one's marriage. The Woman's Guide to Managing Migraine is a concise and practical handbook that gives female headache sufferers all the tools they need to work with their healthcare providers to properly diagnose types of headache and develop the best possible treatment plans. A headache specialist, family practice physician, and fellow migraine sufferer, Dr. Susan Hutchinson introduces the reader to seven women with different lives - ranging from a nineteen-year-old college student, to a 29-year-old attorney, to a 55-year-old mother of three grown children - different women with the common thread of suffering from disabling monthly migraines. As these women's lives unfold throughout the audiobook, the listener gains insight into their own headache experience. Listeners will learn about hormonal therapy, preventive strategies, and treatment options, ranging from the most promising new drugs to the most effective complementary and alternative therapies. Dr. Hutchinson answers common questions, such as how to plan for pregnancy and how to manage family and work life while coping with ongoing migraine attacks. She shows you how to carefully maintain your body and brain to minimize disruptions that can trigger a migraine, how to keep a migraine diary, how to find a headache-focused provider in your area, and how to make the most out of a visit to your doctor. The audiobook includes a "headache quiz" that will determine if you are having true migraines. The time in a woman's life when migraine is most common - her twenties through her early fifties - represents her peak earning-power and child-raising years. The Woman's Guide to Managing Migraine will empower women to take charge of their treatment and find the path to living well. Members Reviews: Great book...

As a perimenopausal woman, I've read a lot about hormones as well. This book puts the basics together for women experiencing hormone-related migraines.

With a decade's worth of elite medical training behind him, he is eager to settle down and reap the rewards of countless sleepless nights. Instead, he is confronted with sobering truths. Doctors' morale is low and getting lower. Blatant cronyism determines patient referrals, corporate ties distort medical decisions, and unnecessary tests are routinely performed in order to generate income. Meanwhile, a single patient in Jauhar's hospital might see 15 specialists in one stay and still fail to receive a full picture of his actual condition. In Doctored, Jauhar has chronicled the formative years of his residency while observing first-hand the crisis of American medicine through the eyes of a cardiologist. Members Reviews: Whining Physician Doesn't Make Enough Money Page after pathetically boring page on how this PhD physicist turned physician along with his physician wife, with a physician brother who runs an invasive cardiology clinic is getting "SCREWED" by the health care system. He and his wife are not being compensated as he believes feel they should be. I felt so "bad" about this physician's monetary situation I wrote him a $5.00 check and sent it to his publisher. LOL Stupid book Would you try another book from Sandeep Jauhar and/or Patrick Lawlor? No way What was most disappointing about Sandeep Jauhars story? I hated this book, I could not even finish it, the guy basically complaining all the time and its all about his personal life. I felt he is insecure and he has lots of issues related to his culture, past and his family. How could the performance have been better? He needs psychotherapy. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Doctored? The whole book As enjoyable as a heart attack What would have made Doctored better? If it were about anything other than banal stories from a dude who went into medicine just to impress his parents. There is no evidence base. Plenty of doctors have similar difficult but don't become bitter. Contains no actionable information. Would you ever listen to anything by Sandeep Jauhar again? Never Would you be willing to try another one of Patrick Lawlors performances? Maybe You didnt love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities? None Any additional comments? I wish I could get a refund, honestly great read! it is a great and provoking book about our Healthcare system. the voice is excellent and delivered the message and emotions well. Lost. A long chain of patient cases with personal life interjectures. Nothing new if you are in the industry already. The drama is tolerable if you listen at fast speed. I expected more of an analytical approach from MD/PhD., but instead I've got to listen to unending moral struggle,. However, I did get an occasional laugh from description of patient encounters. Perhaps all can be fixed by living within your own means Dr. Jauhar, as your father suggested.

The Hormone Boost is the next evolution in hormone science. There is widespread knowledge that your thyroid hormone can sabotage weight loss efforts, but this book reveals for the first time that five other hormones - testosterone, adiponectin, growth hormone, adrenalin, and glucagon - are equally critical when trying to lose weight. Within days of the initial 12-day "induction phase", you will feel younger, lighter, and better than you have in years. Using the latest research, Dr. Turner offers a cutting-edge exercise plan, a supplement program, and weekly meal plans with corresponding recipes for each phase of the path to weight loss. The Hormone Boost also includes informative and inspiring case studies, making it a must-have for anyone looking to shed weight and feel revitalized.

Title: Summary of The Obesity Code from Dr. Jason Fung Author: Summary Station Narrator: Horace Leighton Format: Unabridged Length: 28 mins Language: English Release date: 11-11-16 Publisher: Summary Station Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 16 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: As a practicing physician, Jason Fung tends to heavily rely upon scientific studies as a means to explain his various viewpoints on obesity, as well as to debunk commonly held myths on obesity and assumptions that can become problematic. A great deal of the studies that he uses are from the past 10 years, but a few date several decades back, mostly in order to demonstrate how nutrition and obesity research has progressed and evolved over long periods of time. Fung makes a strong effort to put his focus upon causal factors rather than association studies, as associations aren't always as concrete or as helpful as causation can be. In conjunction with scientific research, Fung takes time to describe various biological processes that demonstrate how different bodily systems work in concert to either promote weight gain or weight loss. This is a summary and analysis of the book and not the original book. Members Reviews: a very poor summary What would have made Summary of The Obesity Code from Dr. Jason Fung better? Actually including info from the book What was most disappointing about Summary Stations story? too general How could the performance have been better? info on fasting You didnt love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities? NONE Any additional comments? purchase if you want to waste your money Good information. This summary encouraged me to purchase the full book. However, the readers voice was much too deep to enjoy on my portable speaker. His soothing voice became muffled every time I turned up my speaker. I'd like to think that is my speaker's fault, but I don't have that issue with other audiobooks. very helpful informative and to the point. now I want more. Thank you for helping me to decide.

Deadly Outbreaks Audiobook by Alexandra Levitt

Title: Deadly Outbreaks Subtitle: How Medical Detectives Save Lives Threatened by Killer Pandemics, Exotic Viruses, and Drug-Resistant Parasites Author: Alexandra Levitt Narrator: Julie McKay Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 28 mins Language: English Release date: 09-01-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 113 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Take a visit to the frontline as scientists fight to solve medical mysteries. Despite advances in health care, infectious microbes continue to be a formidable adversary to scientists and doctors. Vaccines and antibiotics, the mainstays of modern medicine, have not been able to conquer infectious microbes because of their amazing ability to adapt, evolve, and spread to new places. Terrorism aside, one of the greatest dangers from infectious disease we face today is from a massive outbreak of drug-resistant microbes. Deadly Outbreaks recounts the scientific adventures of a special group of intrepid individuals who investigate these outbreaks around the world and figure out how to stop them. Part homicide detective, part physician, these medical investigators must view the problem from every angle, exhausting every possible source of contamination. Any data gathered in the field must be stripped of human sorrows and carefully analyzed into hard statistics. Author Dr. Alexandra Levitt is an expert on emerging diseases and other public health threats. Here she shares insider accounts she's collected that go behind the alarming headlines we've seen in the media: mysterious food poisonings, unexplained deaths at a children's hospital, a strange neurologic disease afflicting slaughterhouse workers, flocks of birds dropping dead out of the sky, and drug-resistant malaria running rampant in a refugee camp. Meet the resourceful investigators - doctors, veterinarians, and research scientists - and discover the truth behind these cases and more. Editorial Reviews: Alexandra Levitt is an expert in emergent diseases and public health issues. In this audiobook, she relays information and stories on the complex and fascinating subject of infectious microbes. Julie McKay narrates with a deliberate, clear voice, which will help listeners grasp the intricacies of the subject. The chapters are organized by microbial strains, and each chapter gives background on the known facts of the particular microbe, as well public policy and history related to it. While the subject of the audio is scientific, Levitt pries into all related areas: homicide, deadly outbreaks, and the successes and failures of those people working to stop these invisible, deadly killers. Listeners will be shocked and terrified by what they will learn - but ultimately grateful to be more informed. Members Reviews: Not the top of the class... Although this book deals with a subject which I find endlessly fascinating, I must conclude it was a disappointment. The writing is uninspired and sloppy. Perhaps the author would have benefited from a co-author with more varied and interesting prose style, or at least a keen-eyed editor. One glaring mess that stand out in my mind is when a patient with Hanta virus is described as "going into cardiac arrest, and shock." Pretty sure that should be the other way around, which I assume the author knows. Unfortunately, careless errors like that make it hard to lend much credence. I'm not sure if the print version is any more enjoyable but this was not a good audio version. Narrated by Julie McKay, it is delivered like an instruction manual for assembling furniture. She spells out abbreviations and acronyms constantly ("U-S-A-M-R-I-I-D") instead of utilizing common pronunciations.

Title: Perceptual Intelligence Subtitle: The Brains Secret to Seeing Past Illusion, Misperception, and Self-Deception Author: Montel Williams - foreword, Brian Boxer Wachler MD Narrator: Brian Boxer Wachler MD Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 38 mins Language: English Release date: 10-16-17 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: With the lucid verve and solid scientific grounding of an Oliver Sacks or Malcolm Gladwell, Dr. Brian Boxer Wachler guides listeners on a fascinating tour of the bedrock of our existence - the way our senses perceive everything and everyone in the world around us. Why does one person see Jesus in a shower curtain, get a "bad feeling" about someone they've just met, or hear a conversation so differently than the other person? Boxer Wachler describes some of the mysterious medical conditions that cause non-psychiatric hallucinations and neurological mix-ups, then focuses on how we all receive and interpret the messages of our senses. Practical as well as provocative, Perceptual Intelligence also offers listeners ways to improve their PI, "reality check" their perceptions, and make desired changes in their lives. Members Reviews: Outstanding From the very beginning, this book had my attention. I very much enjoyed the authors voice and sense of humor. Laughing out loud was an unexpected experience while reading a book like this. The stories of PI helped me to understand how I am perceiving the world around me. I saw clearly how I could sometimes have a high PI while in other situations, my PI could drop substantially. After reading this, I realize that I can improve my PI when needed which can improve my life greatly. This was a fantastic book and I look forward to the authors next book great book great book highly recommend it to everyone who thinks about life and people . well written. Interesting subject I didn't not usually choose a book before reading on the author, and in this case the title grabbed me. I guess I had low Perceptual Intelligence in this case. Well written book, but was lacking in scientific rigour if it was suppose to be a scientific book. The author is not well known and probably not a specialist in this subject. It was however quite engaging and funny, but read mostly as a self help book, something I don't subscribe to.

Title: The Anatomy of Hope Subtitle: How People Prevail in the Face of Illness Author: Jerome Groopman Narrator: Paul Michael Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 47 mins Language: English Release date: 01-29-04 Publisher: Books on Tape Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 85 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: The search for hope is most urgent at the patient's bedside. The Anatomy of Hope takes us there, bringing us into the lives of people at pivotal moments when they reach for and find hope, or when it eludes their grasp. Through these intimate portraits, we learn how to distinguish true hope from false, why some people feel they are undeserving of it, and whether we should ever abandon our search. Can hope contribute to recovery by changing physical well-being? To answer this hotly debated question, Groopman embarked on an investigative journey to cutting-edge laboratories where researchers are unraveling an authentic biology of hope. There he finds a scientific basis for understanding the role of this vital emotion in the outcome of illness. Here is a book that offers a new way of thinking about hope, with a message for all readers, not only patients and their families. "We are just beginning to appreciate hope's reach," Groopman writes, "and have not defined its limits. I see hope as the very heart of healing." Critic Reviews: "In this provocative book...Groopman successfully convinces that hope can offer not only solace but strength to those living with medical uncertainty." (Publishers Weekly) "[Groopman] enters the paradoxical hope of cancer patients with a different sort of sympathy. His project is to dissect it meticulously, to find patterns behind it, and to understand its biology....Groopman contends that hope itself is in effect a vital organ, an entity that desperately needs sustenance, and that this sustenance is as essential to living as 'the very oxygen we breathe'." (The New York Times Book Review) Members Reviews: An elegant treatise on the power of hope A scientifically sound yet accessible work detailing Groopman's experiences as both doctor & patient and the role emotions play in affecting the trajectory of illness. I first became interested in this title after hearing an interview with Groopman on NPR's "Fresh Air with Terry Gross." He spoke of his 10 year struggle with back problems; an experience that included a botched surgery and long convalescence. His recovery was hindered by skepticism and apathy on the part of the medical establishment- an establishment that he is sometimes ashamed to be part of. This experience forever changes him and his attudies towards his patients. This story and others, such as Groopman's missteps communicating with patients while a resident, are candidly revealed in his book. Throughout this book, many vivid stories of life, death and illness punctuate a discussion of medical research findings. Groopman successfully argues that hope & dispair, joy & saddness, alters human biology. Rigorous but never dry and tedious- sensitive yet not treacly like Chicken Soup for the Soul, this book shows us that the mind, body and soul are inexorably linked. ONLY read the book narrated by the author This book is outstanding. Be confident in giving it to anyone who is sick or has family members who are sick. However, there is a huge difference between the narrators. Only get the book that has the author as a narrator. Even though it is abridged, it is so much better! I have purchased both versions and have made my parents and siblings purchase it. Great book!!! Very good as far as it goes... This is a very good book.

Arnaud, Lani Simpson DC CCD Narrator: Randye Kaye Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 5 mins Language: English Release date: 08-22-17 Publisher: Tantor Audio Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Author Dr. Lani Simpson, both a doctor of chiropractic and a certified clinical densitometrist, cuts through the confusion and inaccuracies surrounding osteoporosis to explain her whole-body approach to bone health, which includes discussions of digestive health, diet, supplements, and exercise. You may be surprised to learn which foods and medicines hurt bone health and which ones help in building strong bones. The book also sheds light on basic bone biology, how aging affects the bones, the risks and benefits of drugs and alternative treatments, a comprehensive breakdown of calcium supplementation - and some delicious recipes for bone-building meals. We all share concerns about bone health and osteoporosis. Whether you are one of the nearly 10,000 baby boomers turning 65 every day or a younger person building a healthy body, Dr. Lani's No-Nonsense Bone Health Guide will answer your questions and help you live long, healthy, and fracture-free into your golden years. Critic Reviews: "Dr. Lani's No-Nonsense Bone Health Guide is loaded with solid and practical information that will have you standing strong and tall for a lifetime. I highly recommend it." (Christiane Northrup, MD, author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom) Members Reviews: A highly recommended read I found Dr. Simpson's No-Nonsense Bone Health Guide to be a comprehensively thorough, clear, and objective look at the science of bone health, density scans, medication treatments, and possible alternative (or additional) approaches to managing bone loss and improving bone integrity. I came to be especially grateful for this book after my most recent density scan when I was told that I had a 9% decline in my hip bone. One doctor I spoke with told me that I needed to get on medication immediately--"Time is running out." Having read Dr. Simpson's book, I knew that such a decline--especially in only one year's time--is extremely rare. So I consulted with my primary care physician and then had blood work done to ensure that there was no other underlying problem. There wasn't, and so I requested a second opinion from a certified clinical densitometrist. She assured me that an obvious error had occurred in a prior scan, seriously skewing the comparison with my most recent one. Had I not read Dr. Simpson's book (I've read numerous books on osteoporosis and Dr. Simpson's was the only one that talked in detail about how density scans are evaluated and what the numbers mean), I would not have known to question what I was told and would most likely be taking medication prematurely and very possibly unnecessarily. This book has been a godsend, and I highly recommend it. "No Nonsense" is right. Fact-based, lots of good information. I even shared some of it with my doctor! I like that this is not trying to sell any particular product or treatment. It is very comprehensive. Well laid out and easy to follow. Help yourself, not the drug companies More much needed info your Dr doesn't tell you. Five Stars this book could save people who are diagnosed with osteoporosis correctly or incorrectly Five Stars goog informatioon

There is helpful information about how to know if you need to get professional help.

You will be given information about Candida die-off and how you can cope with it and turn it to your advantage. You will also be given information about why the infection recurs and the possible effective steps to prevent recurrence and eliminate infection once and for all.

Members Reviews: not accurate diet, to much sugar from fruits & The narrator was great, just I don't really agree with a lot of things in this book because it tells you that you can eat some foods but actually they have sugar in them and we all know sugar is bad for candida overgrowth. um no This is not a 14 day solution don't waist your money. I was ok with a highly restrictive diet for 14 days. she says in the book that it takes 1 month for every year you have had candida overgrowth 10 years = 10 months. She also states that this diet is nutrient defficient. Again I was ok with 14 days but you can't do it in 14 days Enlightening & helpful! A quick but seemingly thorough look at the effects if yeast overgrowth in the body. It inspired me to try the 14 day cleanse right away.

Discover the confidence that buoys author Joan Becker and her family as they push for reform in the broken mental health system before more lives are ruined. Their story offers hope, help, and heart-felt compassion. "Joan Becker has a generous spirit and kind heart that come forward in this book. By sharing her family's experience she hopes to help other families struggling with mental illness feel less alone. That's a tremendous accomplishment when the illness causes feelings of isolation and hopelessness for parents who are desperate to help their suffering child. The mental health system can and should be better, and this book inspires all of us to do everything we can to make it so." - US Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) Members Reviews: I would highly recommend this book It opened my eyes to how much the Becker family went through. How FAILED our mental health care system is. Joan did give some resources which I feel are helpful. I have passed the book on to another person I believe will benefit from reading the book. I would highly recommend this book. You won't be able to put this book down!!! Joan's book is a MUST READ, I could not put it down!! It is my prayer that, b/c of Joan's book we will see a change in our health care system so that a tragedy like this never has to happen again!!! Joan's book was important to me as mental health issues hit close to home. I hope Joans book will open the public's eyes about mental health, it is a brain DISEASE not something that the patient should be ashamed of or try to hide. When we STOP the idea that a brain disease is something to be ashamed of we will see more and more people not afraid to get the HELP they so desperately need and deserve. A must read!! By far this is the best book I have ever read. A must read for all. Especially for those who have a child, family member or friend that is trying to cope with mental illness alone due to lack of resources. The book covers the trials, tribulations and unfortunate tragedy of a loving family trying to navigate a much broken mental Heath system as they seek help for their son. "Incredible" is all I can think of after reading this book!!! A must read!!! The book reveals the inner workings of life, illness, and God! I couldn't have more respect and appreciation for what they (and family and friends) went through and continue to today. I also have a deep respect for Jan Thomas' reaction and support. Joan...incredible book! Thank you for sharing! XOXO. God's peace and love to all of you! Will Make You Empathize I really enjoyed this book. While it's a topic not many want to talk about, I applaud Joan Becker for stepping up and being forthright. It made me empathize with the people who have mental illness, as well as their families. This is a fairly quick read, not to mention hard to put down, as I read it in one sitting.

It is because of the Flynn effect, says the person who coined the phrase: James R. Flynn. "Searching for God in the Brain": Researchers are unearthing the roots of religious feeling in the experiences of nuns, Buddhists and others. "Brain Food": Paying attention to what and when you eat can maximize your mental prowess.

Title: Mercies in Disguise Subtitle: A Story of Hope, a Family's Genetic Destiny, and the Science That Rescued Them Author: Gina Kolata Narrator: Andrea Gallo Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 31 mins Language: English Release date: 03-21-17 Publisher: Recorded Books Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 23 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: New York Times science reporter Gina Kolata follows a family through genetic illness and one courageous daughter who decides her fate shall no longer be decided by a genetic flaw. The phone rings; the doctor has the results. "Are you ready, Amanda?" The two people Amanda Baxley loves the most had begged her not to be tested. But she had to find out. If your family carried a mutated gene that foretold brutal illness and you could find out if you inherited it, would you do it? Would you confront it, accepting whatever answer came? Or ignore it while you could? In Mercies in Disguise, acclaimed New York Times reporter and best-selling author Gina Kolata tells the story of the Baxleys, an upstanding family in small-town South Carolina. Many of them were doctors, but still, they are struck down by an inscrutable illness. Finally they discover the cause of the disease after a remarkable sequence of providential events. Meanwhile science, progressing for 50 years along a parallel track, handed the Baxleys a question - not a cure but a blood test that would reveal who had the gene for the disease. Science offered another dilemma - fertility specialists had created a way to spare the children. A work of narrative nonfiction in the tradition of the The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, Mercies in Disguise tells the story of a family that took matters into its own hands when medicine could not help. It's a story of a family dealing with unspeakable tragedy without being driven apart. It is the story of a young woman - Amanda Baxley - who faced the future, determined to find a way to disrupt her destiny. Members Reviews: True Medical Mystery Fascinating true story of a lovely SC family cursed with a rare and terrible genetic disease that manifests itself in middle age. Well told, kept my interest to the end. I was very anxious to hear the outcome of the screening tests that some of the family members sought and how they are trying to put an end to this tragic legacy. Could Not Finish I enjoy science-related books and am fond of medical "mysteries," but I found this book exceedingly slow in developing. The characters weren't as fleshed out, but at the same time I was not interested in the aside that a Kuru researcher was--much later in his career-- jailed for what I read between the lines as paedophilia. I increased the speed and managed to finish 25% of the book. At this point I'm not interested or invested in finding out what the mystery disease is.

Love MD, Karen Lindsey Narrator: Coleen Marlo Format: Unabridged Length: 19 hrs and 38 mins Language: English Release date: 02-01-12 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Dr. Susan Loves Breast Book has long been the bible for the newly diagnosed. In this completely revised fifth edition, it also becomes a guide for those at risk of getting breast cancer, survivors interested in the consequences of their treatment, and anyone who wants to understand the new research about how the local environment influences the manifestations and treatments of many different kinds of breast cancer. Major advances being made in genetic research today mean that prevention and treatment can work not only to get rid of mutated cells (through chemotherapy or surgery) but also to change the environment around the cells (through hormone therapy, exercise, and stress reduction). Among other promising developments discussed are advances in imaging, recognition of breast density as a risk factor, and a section focused on personalized medicine to help determine what kind of cancer you have and how best to treat it. Any woman facing a diagnosis, decisions about treatment, or concerns about prevention will find in Dr. Loves book the information, guidance, and reassurance she needs. Critic Reviews: The seminal work for any woman facing the disease. ( Los Angeles Times Magazine) I was impressed by how plainly and intelligently Love, a breast surgeon, presented the research findings about mammography. ( Washington Post) [Dr. Love is] one of the countrys leading experts on breast cancer. ( Los Angeles Times) Members Reviews: A must read for anyone with breast cancer! I recommend Dr. Love's book to anyone diagnosed with breast cancer. I was first diagnosed in 2001 and again in 2015...her book clearly explains, not only the types of breast cancer, but the wide range of treatments available. Thanks to her book I recognized my toxity to one of my meds and a change of medication allowed me to return to a much better quality of life. This is also a very helpful book for family and friends who know someone with breast cancer. Great support for anyone facing breast cancer At the recommendation of a friend who is a breast cancer survivor, I bought this book for a newly diagnosed friend. I was hesitant not wanting to overwhelm her with too much info. I waited till it felt like the right time. After diagnoses before treatment when there's so much info to digest. She was so grateful and found the book extremely helpful. but it's a very good place to begin Probably more than you want to know on the subject, but certainly helpful for someone newly diagnosed with breast cancer. There were a couple of things I tried to look up in the index that weren't there though, so it may not answer all your questions, but it's a very good place to begin. Decent resource A pretty good all around guide book for breast cancer. I do pull it off the shelf from time to time for information. Sometimes the information lacks the clarity I am seeking. It sets the stage for things a cancer patient should consider, but doesn't really give enough information to feel like one can reach a reasonable conclusion. I did much better with the 10 Best Questions book - which is an outstanding, simple to read, resource. Excellent resource for diagnosis, treatment, and prevention I am a physicist (not a physician) and know little about the field of medicine.

The cure for America's most lethal killer doesn't require expensive medications or rounds of invasive surgery. In fact 99 percent of heart disease-related deaths are entirely preventable with diet and nutrition. The cure for reversing heart disease is as simple as changing the food we eat. One of our country's leading experts in both preventive medicine and the science of food, Dr. Fuhrman speaks directly to listeners everywhere who want to take control of their health and avoid taking medication or undergoing complicated, expensive, unnecessary, and often ineffective procedures or surgery. He asserts that the public is rarely informed by their doctors of the most effective options for treating high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and heart disease. Nor are we provided an accurate evaluation of the true health risks from commonly prescribed drugs. Given this lack of vital information, how can we possibly make an intelligent and informed choice regarding a pill, procedure, or change in diet? Grounded in the latest scientific research and Dr. Fuhrman's 25 years of clinical experience treating heart disease, The End of Heart Disease shows us how we can significantly lower cholesterol and blood pressure, reduce weight, heal obstructive coronary artery disease, and even eradicate advanced heart disease - all without the need for dangerous procedures like angioplasty or bypass surgery. Dr. Fuhrman shows us how to eat for optimal heart health, with a range of options for differing needs and conditions. He provides detailed menu plans and delicious recipes for heart-healthy meals and snacks and includes helpful questions for doctors and patients. This summary is intended for those who want to capture the gist of the book but don't have the current time to devour it all. You get the main summary along with all of the benefits and lessons the actual book has to offer. This summary is not intended to be used without reference to the original book.

Chronic Pain, Anxiety, Food Intolerance and More: Sufferers of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Autism

Snow Narrator: Carl Moore Format: Unabridged Length: 37 mins Language: English Release date: 02-23-16 Publisher: JB Snow Publishing Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: I am a writer, but, most importantly, I am a mother of children affected by high-functioning autism. As far back as I can remember, many of my family members have also been stricken with symptoms that are consistent with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Like many of my listeners, I remember constantly being ill as a child. I couldn't do many of the activities that my peers could do. Sometimes I was sent to the doctor, and other times I was sent home from school. Since my mother was a nurse, I thought that maybe my symptoms were normal. After all, why wouldn't she take me to the doctor to have these symptoms treated? Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a genetic disorder that is frightening and elusive to the medical community. It is one of many inherited disorders that affect the connective tissues in the body, including collagen. Many physicians will tell their patients that their symptoms are all in their heads. They might classify the patient as mentally ill, a hypochondriac, or a drug seeker. Sufferers of chronic pain might eventually give up seeking help from the medical community altogether when they are faced with these labels and skeptical physicians. Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is known to be a condition in which people usually have hypermobile joints and stretchy skin. This is what physicians generally look for when they are considering EDS diagnoses. The truth is that EDS can present in many different ways. There are many different types and forms of EDS, and they affect very different parts of a person's body. A physician who looks for only two signs is missing the big picture of the family history and the patient's symptoms in relation to an EDS diagnosis. Members Reviews: interesting and informative. knowledge is wisdom, prevention may become cure especially for our siblings who inherit these genes.

Why isn't everyone else happy and experiencing these moments? Why can't others get off the couch to do some of the things that they've always wanted to do?

Members Reviews: Poor in several ways I have consulted 4 sleep physician specialists, and many sleep technicians. I believe this book has many inaccuracies, the 2 most important being that sleep apnea can be caused by stress, and that it affects more men than women. Additionally, the book reads as though written by a non-English speaker, so that in many places the subject of the sentence is unclear, or missing altogether. Also, many symptoms are discussed emotionally rather than factually, such as 'this makes you feel awful', rather than, 'lack of quality sleep causes muscle coordination problems'. I don't believe this book is a good place to get accurate, up-to-date medical information.

Title: Food, Genes, and Culture Subtitle: Eating Right for your Origins Author: Gary Paul Nabhan Narrator: Gregory N. St. John Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 4 mins Language: English Release date: 09-24-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 26 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Vegan, low fat, low carb, slow carb: Every diet seems to promise a one-size-fits-all solution to health. But they ignore the diversity of human genes and how they interact with what we eat. In Food, Genes, and Culture, renowned ethnobotanist Gary Nabhan shows why the perfect diet for one person could be disastrous for another. If your ancestors were herders in Northern Europe, milk might well provide you with important nutrients, whereas if youre Native American, you have a higher likelihood of lactose intolerance. If your roots lie in the Greek islands, the acclaimed Mediterranean diet might save your heart; if not, all that olive oil could just give you stomach cramps. Nabhan traces food traditions around the world, from Bali to Mexico, uncovering the links between ancestry and individual responses to food. The implications go well beyond personal taste. Todays widespread mismatch between diet and genes is leading to serious health conditions, including a dramatic growth over the last 50 years in auto-immune and inflammatory diseases. Readers will not only learn why diabetes is running rampant among indigenous peoples and heart disease has risen among those of northern European descent, but may find the path to their own perfect diet. Editorial Reviews: Using both science and personal stories, Gary Paul Nabhan alleges that people should follow diets according to their ethnic background. Because of his genes, a person with Italian roots should consume more olive oil than a person with Dutch heritage. In an age of a million and one fad diets, Nabhan's theory may provide a better approach to eating right. Meanwhile Gregory N. St. John's performance is clear and engaging. He handles scientific language with ease. Keep up, though, with his rapid pacing. Overall, this audiobook is original and thought-provoking, real food for thought. Members Reviews: Interesting genetic nerddom. Super interesting, well researched. Related to bio-hacking. Contains specific gene reference for known expression. Having done personal genetic mapping make this book fascinating! Great book, terrible reading While I suspect I would enjoy the written version, the narrator of this book was a terrible choice. There are many medical and scientific terms throughout the text, and it seems every single one is mispronounced. It is so distracting, because the mispronunciation is so severe as to make it hard to understand. Surely, a reader with even a basic introduction to common medical terminology, could have been found. Good message but wanders Ever have to write one of those papers where the teacher made you write a certain number of words? This book is painful in that respect. Additionally there's a lot of wondering off topic and even out of the scientific realm. However, buried in the wandering verbosity is an intriguing idea that warrants exploration.

Title: The Doctor Will See You Now Subtitle: Recognizing and Treating Endometriosis Author: Tamer Seckin MD, Padma Lakshmi Narrator: Paul Woodson, Gabra Zackman Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 4 mins Language: English Release date: 10-31-17 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Endometriosis materializes when the endometrium - the tissue that lines the inside of the uterus - sheds, but does not exit a woman's body during her period. Instead, it grows outside of the uterus, spreading to organs and nerves in and around the pelvic region. The resulting pain is so physically and emotionally insufferable that it can mercilessly dominate a woman's life. The average woman with endometriosis is 27 years old before she is diagnosed. It is one of the top three causes of female infertility. The pain it emits can affect a woman's career, social life, relationships, sexual activity, sleep, and diet. It is incurable, but highly treatable. Unfortunately, though, it is rarely treated in a timely manner, if at all, because of misdiagnoses and/or a lack of education among those in the medical community. This book gives hope to everyone connected to endometriosis. That includes every woman and young girl who has it, and the women and men in their lives who know something is wrong, but do not know what it is or what to do about it. This book is written at a level that everyone with ties to this disease can relate to and understand, but it is also for doctors with good intentions who lack the knowledge of how to diagnose or treat it. Critic Reviews: "This comprehensive text, as the author hopes, is likely to raise awareness among other physicians and among general readers, particularly women who will now have the knowledge necessary to become powerful self-advocates." ( Publishers Weekly) Members Reviews: Very informative I had been told I had endometriosis based on symptoms only so I started researching more about it and came across this book. I learned alot just listening to it. Great read.

What can we do about our food, sleep, exercise and relationships that will make us feel good, help us overcome the conditions of PCOD and hypothyroid, and, most importantly, get off drugs and stay off them for good?

Title: Bad Faith Subtitle: When Religious Belief Undermines Modern Medicine Author: Paul A. Offit, MD Narrator: Tom Perkins Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 1 min Language: English Release date: 05-12-15 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 41 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: In recent years there have been major outbreaks of whooping cough among children in California, mumps in New York, and measles in Ohio's Amish country - despite the fact that these are all vaccine-preventable diseases. Although America is the most medically advanced place in the world, many people disregard modern medicine in favor of using their faith to fight life-threatening illnesses. In 21st-century America, how could this be happening? Acclaimed physician and author Dr. Paul Offit chronicles the stories of these faithful and their children, whose devastating experiences highlight the tangled relationship between religion and medicine in America. Religious or not, this issue reaches everyone - whether you are seeking treatment at a Catholic hospital or trying to keep your kids safe from diseases spread by their unvaccinated peers. Replete with vivid storytelling and complex, compelling characters, Bad Faith makes a strenuous case that denying medicine to children in the name of religion isn't just unwise and immoral but a rejection of the very best aspects of what belief itself has to offer. Critic Reviews: "Offit masterfully points out that the denial of medicine in the name of religion actually rejects the basic teaching of religious faith." (Library Journal) Members Reviews: A must read This book is chock full of stories that most people I know probably have never heard of. It is time for America to WAKE UP and realize that "Freedom of Religion" is ensuring that parents can do what they like, and kill their children in the name of religion. And this DENIES THE RIGHTS of the children to a life to live! Parents who refuse medical care to their children in the name of religion need to be prosecuted! Please read this book. I know our country was founded on the idea of "Freedom of Religion." What about the Right to Life by a child who needed protecting by their parents, teachers, church, family, community? They often can't speak up for themselves. We as a country need to speak up for the defenseless. "Freedom of Religion" is NOT good enough alone. Religion is Not Medicine Where does Bad Faith rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? Excellent - truth be told it was my first time listening to an audio book - I've read other books by Paul Offit so I knew what to expect as far as information but it was great to be able to listen to it and do something else at the same time. What was one of the most memorable moments of Bad Faith? This is not a novel so the whole thing should be memorable to anyone who listens to it. What does Tom Perkins bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Mostly the ability to listen - the narration is very good and is similar in style to the way I would have read it myself. His voice is clear and easy to listen to. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? not applicable Any additional comments? Religion has played a part in the deaths and horrible pain and suffering of too many children with impunity in this country. Religion and medicine can coexist, but one cannot be substituted for the other.

Are Common Heart Skip Palpitations Dangerous? Audiobook by James M. Lowrance

Subtitle: Premature Ventricular and Atrial Contractions (PVCs and PACs) Author: James M. Lowrance Narrator: Ed Altman Format: Unabridged Length: 38 mins Language: English Release date: 12-06-13 Publisher: James M. Lowrance Publishing Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: This audiobook is also a section found in the title: Common Murmurs, Arrhythmias and Myopathies of the Heart, with this title being made available separately, for listeners interested specifically in the PVC/PAC (heart skips) subject. Skipped heartbeats occur in most, if not 100% of the general population, at some point during their lives. Some medical sources state that about half of us experience them on a relatively frequent basis. For some people however, these heart palpitations called "Premature Ventricular Contractions" and "Premature Atrial Contractions" (PVCs and PACs), occur at a frequency or forcefulness, that can be concerning to them and that can result in chronic anxiety and/or panic attacks. In most cases these palpitations are benign but the unpleasant feeling they may cause can at times override any reassurance one might receive by a doctor, that their heart is otherwise healthy and normal. It is my intention, through the chapters of this audiobook, to inform listeners who experience these common but most-often benign palpitations, with facts, that can help them to better-cope with the concerning symptoms they may experience with these strange heartbeats. Members Reviews: but you might learn a better way to view and cope with them and have ... I thought this was a well-researched, informative booklet on the subject of premature ventricular contractions. The author explained why the PVC's are usually not dangerous if your heart is otherwise normal. The author also included some steps people can take that might reduce the number of PVC's they get. I agree with the author that PVC's are often a stress and anxiety problem. If we can get our anxiety and stress under control, the PVC's often go away. I've had two periods of my life where I was getting lots of PVC's, and in both periods I was very stressed out before the PVC's began. You may not find a 100% cure for your PVC's in this book, but you might learn a better way to view and cope with them and have less anxiety. And anything that reduces your anxiety may help reduce the number of PVC's you are getting as well. The book is short, well-written and to the point. I was happy to pay the less than $2 for the Kindle version and believe it is a very good value. Good info I figured for less than two bucks why not look see what he had to say. It made me feel better. 2star for cheap price This book was short and everything n it except for this persons short history with pvc's is easily found on the internet. At first I thought. May have read this before but then realized its all repeated of website knowledge. I read it but didn't help me from my suffering with pvc's. I was hoping for something I didn't already know with a hour of searching pvc's in search engine. Searching for a real self help book for this. Not What I Was Expecting I was hoping for something more of substance. This is more like one person's narrative of their experience with PAC's and PVC's. I found more on the internet in five minutes. palpitation The sensation of skipped heartbeat followed by a pause and thump in the chest is very scary, moreover the fear and anticipation of these sensations can degrade the quality of life.

Title: Medical Ethics: A Very Short Introduction Author: Tony Hope Narrator: Eric Martin Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 46 mins Language: English Release date: 11-06-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 20 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Issues in medical ethics are rarely out of the media and it is an area of ethics that has particular interest for the general public as well as the medical practitioner. This short and accessible introduction provides an invaluable tool with which to think about the ethical values that lie at the heart of medicine. Tony Hope deals with the thorny moral questions such as euthanasia and the morality of killing, and also explores political questions such as: How should health care resources be distributed fairly? Each chapter in the audiobook considers a different issue: Genetics, modern reproductive technologies, resource allocation, mental health, medical research. The audiobook also discusses controversial questions such as: Who should have access to reproductive technology? Who should pay? Is it right to fund expensive drug treatment for individuals? Should active euthanasia be legalized? Should treatment for mental illness be imposed on patients without their consent? Who should have access to information from genetic testing? Should we require consent for the use of dead bodies or organs in medical research? ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These audiobooks are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly listenable. Editorial Reviews: This installment in Oxford University Presss Very Short Introductions series covers the often-contentious issues inherent in the field of medical ethics. Tony Hopes engrossing and educational book covers the basics of what medical ethics are, and guides listeners through a broad array of specific scenarios designed to provoke contemplation about issues of access (to medical information, treatment, even euthanasia) and consent. Skilled voice actor Eric Martin presents Hopes thought-provoking guide with the perfect degree of gravitas, his clear, well-paced performance effectively drawing listeners into this audiobook and holding their attention through the important and often taxing questions which compose the bulk of this fascinating work. Members Reviews: philosophical and insightful guide to common medic philosophical and insightful guide to common medical ethical issues... I liked the historical literary references and cases cited. Concise. This book gave me a "very short", yet concise, first step into medical ethics. Hope gives the listener a structured layout for each section and explains terms as it progresses. Hope also uses theoretical examples which are then applied to real life situations/cases. Because it was so dense, sometimes it was hard to follow all the logic. This is not to say that it was poorly written, however, because after all it is just a snapshot of medical ethics. It was a great book to get my feet wet with. Very worth 4 hours. Good introduction to Medical Ethics Good introduction to Medical Ethics I am a big fan of the "A very short introduction" series and this is another good example covering the basics of medical ethics in the main area and thought experiments.

At the time, the very idea of a virus underlying a cancer was revolutionary. Cancer is, after all, not catching. Even now, the idea of a virus causing cancer surprises many people. But Epstein-Barr, named after its discoverers, Sir Anthony Epstein and Dr Yvonne Barr, is fascinating for other reasons, too. Almost everyone carries it, yet it is only under certain circumstances that it produces disease. It has been associated withdifferent, apparently unrelated, diseases in different populations: Burkitt's Lymphoma, producing tumours in the jaw, in African children; a nasal tumour in China; glandular fever in Europe and the USA; and the majority of cases of Hodgkin's Disease everywhere. This book tells the story of the discovery of the virus, and the recognition of its connection with these various diseases - an account that spans the world and involves some remarkable characters and individual stories. Members Reviews: Fascinating Enjoyable history of the discovery of EBV and its related diseases. The narrator took me a little while to get used to but eventually I grew to enjoy some of his idiosyncrasies. Well done, overall.

Title: Herpes Is Not the End of Your Love Life Subtitle: Learn the Perks to Genital Herpes Author: Patricia A Carlisle Narrator: Dorothy Deavers Moore Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 22 mins Language: English Release date: 07-19-16 Publisher: Holistic Measures LLC Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: This book contains proven steps and strategies on how to feel confident in discussing herpes and enjoy your love life in the context of sexual relationships. Genital herpes as a diagnosis is not a death sentence, but managing and coping with herpes will be an ongoing part of your life. Herpes is no small matter. One in five adults is estimated to have genital herpes, according to the American Social Health Association, and 80% are not aware they contracted the disease. If you have been recently diagnosed or if you are just curious, start researching now. The more information you know about a subject, the less frightening it is. Use coping strategies for a happier life. Genital herpes or Herpes Simplex-2 is a member of a family of diseases and illnesses that include chicken pox, shingles, and mononucleosis. The cold sores that people find around the mouth and nose are from Herpes Simplex-1, the cousin of genital herpes. The two diseases are similar, yet very different. A highly contagious viral infection, herpes is not dangerous or life threatening, but causes emotional trauma and is an ongoing nuisance. Herpes is transmitted from person to person through intimate contact, oral, genital, or anal. Kissing, sharing towels, or touching infected areas and then touching your own body can also pass on the infection. Women with genital herpes may have breakouts deep in the vagina where the open sores cannot be seen or felt. Someone with herpes may have breakouts deep in the vagina where herpes is at their most contagious when the sores are visible, however an infected person may be contagious at any time. A person without infection has a 75% chance of contracting herpes during intimate contact with someone who harbors the infection. Members Reviews: Be informed! This is the perfect book on this subject! And it gives people hope! I am the audio engineer for this audiobook. I had a friend who was greatly distressed when he learned he had caught Herpes. He was a good friend and a genuinely good guy so my heart ached to see him in this predicament. This book would have been a great help to him back then and that is why we took on this project. If you or someone you know is dealing with this, this book will be a wonderful encouragement as it is full of positive and comforting advice, including homemade remedies to control outbreaks. It would make a great gift for anyone wrestling with the problem. We are excited that God can use our talents to help relieve stress in people's lives concerning this issue. It's very informative! My wife, Dorothy, has a way of narrating in a very reassuring tone that I think would be a welcome sound to anyone dealing with this unfortunate issue. Patricia Carlisle packed this book with everything you could possibly need to know about Herpes and did an excellent job of communicating her message. We highly recommend this for anyone and it is our hope that it may reach and calm many many people struggling with Herpes. Terrible This book is written poorly, has misinformation and is loaded with stats and figures without any sources sited to look up the studies for yourself.. The author is not a scientist, or doctor - a cognitive therapist & social worker that has managed to compile a bunch of info online, some true, some fake, and throw it into a pile with blurry cover art and ridiculous images throughout..

Title: Confessions of a Radiation Oncologist Subtitle: What You Don't Know About Cancer and Radiation Therapy Author: Bobby N. Koneru MD Narrator: Genevieve Hannon Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 26 mins Language: English Release date: 09-30-16 Publisher: POG Publishing Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Starting with how radiation therapy works, Confessions of a Radiation Oncologist informs patients of what to expect before, during and after treatment. Special attention is paid to radiation therapy for different kinds of cancers, empowering patients with the knowledge they need about the specific cancer they are fighting. Patients will find a whole host of resources at their fingertips including comprehensive explanations about what to expect from the various radiotherapy treatments; information about the impact that patients can expect radiotherapy to have on their lives before, during and after treatment; and other radiotherapy resources including a list of organizations, books and websites that provide support, financial assistance, nutritional guidance and complimentary therapies for cancer patients. Members Reviews: Professional, insightful advice expressed in a clear manner I personally am not a patient undergoing radiation therapy, but I do work in the healthcare field and so Iâm always trying to further my medical knowledge in any way possible â which is what led me to this book. Author Bobby N. Koneru impressed me within the very first few chapters due to his straightforward, concise writing style that successfully delivers insightful information advice in a very digestible and easy to understand manner. Another aspect of this book that I think is very important to mention is the high quality of the illustrations. The illustrations do an excellent job of conveying concepts and the authorâs points in a way that makes it easy to gain a deep understanding of what is being discussed. Itâs easy to tell within the first quarter of the book that a lot of time, research, and professionalism has gone into crafting this book and I think many, many people will be just as impressed by âConfessions of a Radiation Oncologistâ as I have been. I will definitely be recommending this read to colleagues. What a Necessary Tool if Radiation looms in your future! Interesting and Informative...written in language I could easily understand with photos that took away my uneasiness of what to expect before my first appointment. Thank you Doctor! Five Stars Well organized and easy for any learner to read! Good Overview, but Would Benefit from Additional Editing Cancer is frightening and overwhelming. Dr. Koneru's book provides a good overview of radiation options without getting bogged down with medical jargon. Especially interested in the chapter on breast cancer, I was disappointed to see a generic chest radiation graphic that added little understanding of breast radiation. Instead, I would have preferred more photos or graphics showing modified patient positions that might be used to address particular health challenges, during breast radiation, such as shoulder injuries, large breasts, etc. The entire book could use some editorial attention. For example, "complimentary" is used repeatedly to describe complementary treatments and a number of words are missing throughout the book. I think this book would prove a helpful starting point for the newly diagnosed patient and / or caregiver and the resources can guide them to more detailed information as needed. Excellent, well rounded book that uses human language to explain cancer. This is a great book for anyone who needs to learn more about radiation therapy.

Root-Bernstein Narrator: Nelson Runger Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 55 mins Language: English Release date: 06-04-14 Publisher: Recorded Books Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 37 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Written with wit and narrative force, Honey, Mud, Maggots and Other Medical Marvels is an enriching excursion into the world of folk medicine. The award-winning team of Robert and Michèle Root-Bernstein provide a fascinating glimpse into the evolution of medical traditions. In addition to the honey, mud, and maggots used in wound therapy, the Root-Bernsteins unearth cures that range from ancient Egypt to the rain forests of contemporary Latin America. Whether its the medicinal use of clay or the components of urine, all the cures in this book have one thing in common: They have stood the test of time because they work. With Nelson Rungers dynamic and sensitive narration, this studied collection of entertaining anecdotes about some weird-sounding - even stomach-churning - old remedies is in fact much more. It is a dazzling step into the closely-guarded secrets of medicine. Members Reviews: How valid is their "research" The book is interesting on its own. However some statistics quoted may be misleading. I would take most of their "latest" research with a grain of salt. Brilliant wealth of information Not in the medical fiend? It doesn't matter this book is truly for everyone written so that anyone can understand its marvels Total Tripe - Pseudoscience and silliness. Yes, some of the ideas presented do work - but I don't live in the a 3rd world country. However, it isn't real science. It's pseudoscience and untested ideas.

Into the Gray Zone Audiobook by Adrian Owen

Title: Into the Gray Zone Subtitle: A Neuroscientist Explores the Border Between Life and Death Author: Adrian Owen Narrator: Steve West Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 30 mins Language: English Release date: 06-20-17 Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 38 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: In this startling and thought-provoking book, which will remind listeners of works by Oliver Sacks and Atul Gawande, a world-renowned neuroscientist reveals his controversial, groundbreaking work with patients whose brains were previously thought vegetative or nonresponsive but turn out - in up to 20 percent of cases - to be vibrantly alive, existing in the "gray zone". Into the Gray Zone takes listeners to the edge of a dazzling, humbling frontier in our understanding of the brain: the so-called "gray zone" between full consciousness and brain death. People in this middle place have sustained traumatic brain injuries or are the victims of stroke or degenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Many are oblivious to the outside world, and their doctors believe they are incapable of thought. But a sizeable number are experiencing something different: intact minds adrift deep within damaged brains and bodies. An expert in the field, Adrian Owen led a team that, in 2006, discovered this lost population and made medical history. Scientists, physicians, and philosophers have only just begun to grapple with the implications. Following Owen's journey of exciting medical discovery, Into the Gray Zone asks some tough and terrifying questions, such as: What is life like for these patients? What can their families and friends do to help them? What are the ethical implications for religious organizations, politicians, the right to die movement, and even insurers? And perhaps most intriguing of all: In defining what a life worth living is, are we too concerned with the physical and not giving enough emphasis to the power of thought? What truly defines a satisfying life? This book is about the difference between a brain and a mind, a body and a person. It is about what these fascinating borderlands between life and death have taught us about being human. Members Reviews: Thought provoking loved this book, amazing and interesting documentary into something we don't often contemplate unless we ourselves are affected by this trauma. you will have a different outlook on the value of life when you finish this book. I guarantee it

A Is for Anorexia Audiobook by Em Farrell

Title: A Is for Anorexia Subtitle: Anorexia Nervosa Explained Author: Em Farrell Narrator: Bonny Luisa Smith Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 33 mins Language: English Release date: 01-27-17 Publisher: Process Press Ltd Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Em Farrell is a psychotherapist with many years of experience working with eating disorders. She originally set up a center for women with eating problems in London and used CBT and massage to help them. This book takes you deep into the troubled mind and body of an anorexic. It explains why anorexia occurs, what it does to the mind and body of the sufferer and how they can recover. It will benefit parents, friends, partners of anorexics and sufferers themselves, if they want to change. It explains this apparently inexplicable and sometimes deadly disorder. For parents: learn how to understand your daughter, strengthen yourself and help her. For friends and lovers of anorexics: learn about the beliefs that anorexics have about themselves and what is going on in their body and their minds, so that you can support them and help them get better. For counsellors and psychotherapists: learn the facts about anorexia, both physical and emotional, so that you have the courage to work sufferers and their deeply seated denial. For sufferers: discover an alternative view of yourself. If you have anorexia you can recover and have a better life. Members Reviews: Great guide to a difficult illness; help for those who need help with the illness or with helping a friend. My work is in mental health policy, with a focus on mental health promotion and mental illness prevention. Because early childhood trauma underpins a great deal of mental (and physical) illness, a great deal of my work concerns the prevention, intervention and treatment of child abuse and neglect. Eating disorders are one of the possible outcomes of early childhood trauma, but an area that I have had little exposure to and know very little about. I have wanted to remedy that lack, but hadn't found a trustworthy source that brought together the research, survivor experience and treatment modalities in a form that was interesting, engaging and that felt respectful of those living with an eating disorder. Then Em Farrell published her book, "A is for Anorexia," and I found my guide through the complex world of eating disorders. Farrell's voice is warm and respectful and thoroughly grounded in expert knowledge. While reading "A is for Anorexia," I felt as if Farrell was with me every step of the way - anticipating my questions, guiding me gently through what is a terrible psychiatric illness with insight and compassion. For each chapter, Farrell provides a summary of the major points and tells the reader in clear language why those points are important. She ends each chapter with a very effective section called "Remember," again bringing forth the key points of the chapter. Through the book, Farrell makes clear the critically important point in all psychiatric illness - the need to keep the mental/emotional component foremost. Simply feeding an anorectic, for example, misses the point of the illness. Farrell recounts one of her encounters with what was, in the 1970s and 80s, a popular treatment for anoretics. Called the "deprivation regime," the anorectic was kept in a secure ward and allowed nothing to distract her from the food she was given to eat.

I'm an RN and it was hard to follow although I did.. I hoped for a more holistic natural inclusion of treatment ....not only the western medicine perspective. it would have better if they included natural ways to assist ur thyroid and side effects of staying main stream... All patients should be advised and informed like this! Clear and straight to the point information, this advice should be given to all patients at the time of diagnosis!

Title: A Prescription for Change Subtitle: The Looming Crisis in Drug Development Author: Michael Kinch Narrator: William Hughes Format: Unabridged Length: 13 hrs and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 11-07-16 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: The introduction of new medicines has dramatically improved the quantity and quality of individual and public health, while contributing trillions of dollars to the global economy. In spite of these past successes - and indeed because of them - our ability to deliver new medicines may be quickly coming to an end. Moving from the 20th century to the present, A Prescription for Change reveals how changing business strategies combined with scientific hubris have altered the way new medicines are discovered, with dire implications for both health and the economy. To explain how we have arrived at this pivotal moment, Michael S. Kinch recounts the history of pharmaceutical and biotechnological advances in the 20th century, relating stories of the individuals and organizations that ushered in the modern era of translational medicine. He shows that an accelerating cycle of acquisition and downsizing is cannibalizing the very infrastructure that had fostered the introduction of innovative new medicines. As Kinch demonstrates, the dismantling of the pharmaceutical and biotechnological research and development enterprises could also provide opportunities to innovate new models that sustain and expand the introduction of newer and better breakthrough medicines in the years to come. Members Reviews: The author did a great job chronicling the science I am not bio-major and found this book well-researched and very insightful. As a professional investor, I am always looking for an entry book into pharma and biotechnology industry. The author did a great job chronicling the science, innovation and regulation perspective of this highly-volatile, highly-rewarding industry. Although the book content may be a little bit technical and sometimes hard to read, that does not bother me. Instead thatâs the quality I always appreciate. Gain an understanding on the pharmaceutical industry... ...by studying its history. Michael Kinch shares his insider perspective, providing his readers with a thorough understanding of the current state of drug development. It is the author's hope that by understanding how we got here, we will figure out ways to improve going forward.

(Siddhartha Mukherjee, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Emperor of Maladies) Members Reviews: Still not a bad book though I haven't read it all as I have a ten month old baby, but I was expecting it to be more of a text book on various genes, but it is much more of a novel about the genes, descriptive and lyrical writing.

When we read the title of a book like The Genetics of Health: Understand Your Genes for Better Health by Sharad P. Paul, MD, many of us would say, âI think Iâll lie down and let the feeling pass.â If you do, you will miss a great deal. Normally, this is not the type of book we would read.

Do you suffer from chronic pain? Do you experience depression or feel anxious? Do you have allergies or autoimmune issues? Have you lost your sex drive somewhere along the way? If you have one or more of these symptoms, you may be suffering from what Rachel Carlton Abrams, MD, calls chronic body depletion - a condition that can be related to weight gain, high blood pressure, exhaustion, and many other symptoms that leave the body drained. In BodyWise, Dr. Abrams helps us to understand that these symptoms, uncomfortable as they may be, are actually a sign of our body's intelligence. Our bodies are trying to communicate - sometimes screaming at us to pay attention - and only when we learn to listen are we able to treat what ails us to achieve optimum healing and lifelong health. Dr. Abrams shares her customizable 28-day program, used with thousands of patients in her clinic, for healing the body both physically and emotionally.

Title: The Teaching of Talking Subtitle: Learn to Do Expert Speech Therapy at Home With Children and Adults Author: Mark Ittleman Narrator: Mark A. Ittleman, M.S., CCC/SLP Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 43 mins Language: English Release date: 08-19-13 Publisher: ACX Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 8 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: People with speaking difficulties are at the mercy of insurance companies who are determining how often and for how long speech therapy services should be delivered. It is also a disturbing reality that the likelihood for therapy frequency and length of care is contingent upon either the level of competence or comfort level of the speech-language pathologist or the financial policies of each institution. Length of treatment and frequency of speech therapy sessions are often established by the insurance policy or plan, and often does not take into consideration the severity of the speaking difficulty. The Health care systems in most countries are not providing long-term therapy for people with moderate to profound speaking difficulties. The intention of The Teaching of Talking is to make sure that any loved one, caregiver or speech-language pathologist is thoroughly knowledgeable in methods to help people speak better since one never knows when the institution or insurance company will discontinue speech and language therapy. What is so exceptional about the audio edition is that it is narrated by the author who gives examples of how to do the speech and language stimulation. By listening to his speaking speed, phrasing and inflection, you can achieve mastery of the Teaching of Talking method. Members Reviews: Stretched out story, unsuitable delivery What did you like best about The Teaching of Talking? What did you like least? He provided some good tips for therapy Would you be willing to try another one of Mark A. Ittleman, M.S., CCC/SLPs performances? I don't think so If this book were a movie would you go see it? Not applicable Any additional comments? Should have been condensed to 4 hours. Too many long lists, personal comments. Congratulatory letters should have been omitted. Delivery, while appropriate for therapy, was not suitable for an audiobook listen.

Rice Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 31 mins Language: English Release date: 12-06-13 Publisher: University Press Audiobooks Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: A collection revealing the joys, fears, intimacies, and transcendent moments shared by a nurse and her patients. The Heart's Truth should be listened to at every nursing school in the country. It offers a powerful and moving portrait of what it means to be a nurse. In writing that is of the highest quality, the listener is swept up in the drama of nursing and the compassion with which it is perfused. Critic Reviews: "Cortney Davis has an uncanny ability to give voice to the profound act of everyday nursing and its power in transforming the lives of people. Somehow, she sees the shadows and ghosts that fill our bodies and souls and makes sense of them, showing us that the divide between patient and provider is an artificial one that can get in the way of true understanding. The Heart's Truth reminds us of the power of reflection and narrative and challenges us to reclaim these ways of knowing in the interest of healing our patients--and ourselves." (Diana J. Mason, PhD, RN, FAAN, Editor-in-Chief, American Journal of Nursing) "The Heart's Truth should be required reading at every nursing school in the country. It offers a powerful and moving portrait of what it means to be a nurse. In writing that is of the highest quality, the reader is swept up in the drama of nursing and the compassion with which it is perfused." (Richard Selzer, surgeon and author) "Davis has perfectly captured the broader arc of movement from awkward, insecure novice to competent, often morally exhausted, clinician, with a poet's touch." (Amy M. Haddad, PhD) Members Reviews: The audio ruins the book. Any additional comments? It is a shame that the poor quality, robotic audio totally distracts from a valuable story that could give a rich perspective on nursing.

Critic Reviews: "The bible of natural medicine." (Larry Dossey, M.D.) Members Reviews: Great information for natural healing and health. I also have the paperback version to use for reference. An invaluable resource. Easy to read and understand. A repeater for sure. Worst Health Book Ever What would have made Natural Health, Natural Medicine better? If he actually offered something other than the same stupid info you can get anywhere. Has Natural Health, Natural Medicine turned you off from other books in this genre? No, and I've read a book of his before. It was great, inciteful and helpful. These two are daylight and dark from each other. How could the performance have been better? Seriously monotone. What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment? Serious disappointment in the lack of inciteful information. Any additional comments? I could have said what he said in this book and I'll save everyone time. He said, eat only vegetables and legumes, no seasonings and drink only water. Which is as stupid as it gets and the most boring way to eat ever, we weren't given all this food to eat like that. I will tell you a diet that will work. If God made it, eat it. He didn't make coke or margarine or pop tarts. He did make meat and fruit and vegetables and butter. If it had a life source, you absorb it's life source by eating it. If no life source, you get no life. This book is just stupid. There is so much more to what foods can do for you, he wasted a lot of time telling us not to eat anything with flavor. Fake food, fake body. Real food, real body. We are starving ourselves by eating things with no life source. We eat and eat and eat, yet we are starving to death, while weighing 200 pounds. Eat some food. I found it gave me an updated overlook of the subj If you could sum up Natural Health, Natural Medicine in three words, what would they be? a great publication What did you like best about this story? A Way to look over and set up a healthy life. Have you listened to any of Jesse Boggss other performances before? How does this one compare? Not that I recalled Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? A fantastic collection to help learn and organize a method of subj matter for learning. Any additional comments? A definite purchase to exercise ones mental learning.

MSM Audiobook by Micheal Kratom

Title: MSM Subtitle: The MSM Miracle, Complete Guide to Understanding MSM and Its Health Benefits Author: Micheal Kratom Narrator: Kevin Kollins Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 1 min Language: English Release date: 11-24-15 Publisher: B. K. Kesler Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 15 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: MSM - a natural painkiller and health supplement MSM has existed in our lives for over 20 years. We have been using it as a food supplement to enhance our quality of life and as a painkiller, replacing DMSO and its foul smell and side effects. But how much do we really know about it? How much do we really know about how sulfur can work in our favor? For both DMSO and MSM, the definitive work has been laid down by Drs. Robert Herschler and Stanley W. Jacob. Dr. Jacob is actually the one who has conducted most of the scientific studies and used MSM in over 18,000 patients. The results can be considered nothing less than astonishing. MSM is a nontoxic substance without any side effects reported that can intervene beneficially to reduce or completely alleviate pain and inflammation while working to reduce the risk factors and the causes of many other diseases and conditions. Many people consider MSM a miracle of nature. Actually, it is not. It is a substance that has always been there, but we have only just begun to understand its properties and take advantage of its benefits. That's because scientists were too preoccupied with trying to prove the worth of other minerals, like zinc and iron, and completely forgot all about sulfur. However, it appears that this interest may have come somewhat late. MSM is actually the third largest element existing in the human body, after water and sodium. It also exists in all living things. But it has been almost depleted in the soil that we cultivate for our food, and the only place on Earth that it is still abundant is over the oceans. Furthermore, it appears that all the processes we submit our foods through further reduce the quantities of MSM that can be obtained by the food source. Thus the need for taking it in the form of daily supplements. Members Reviews: Review for MSM Very good info on MSM for people interested in using this product. A good place to start. this book is about Kratom With so many studies and benefits of msm available to write about makes me wonder why Mr. Kratom missed them in a book about MSM, and instead tacked on so much inaccurate information about the unrelated substance kratom. Pass this book up, and seek the volumes by Stanley Jacobs if you are interested in MSM. Excellent I love to have such great information on hand to be able to refer to over and over! This is a technical book but for someone wanting in depth knowledge of MSM it is great. I learned a lot from it. Exactly what I was looking for This book was exactly what I was looking for. It contains everything you ever needed to know about MSM, including it's history, examples of uses, case studies, etc. This book has it all in a not overly simple or technical understandable fashion. If you are looking to come to the source of all MSM knowledge, you will find it here! Helpful Very informative book. It is worth listening if you want to understand the health benefits of MSM. I have never felt better sense I started taking MSM. I started after listening this book.

The Myth of Autism Audiobook by Dr. Michael Goldberg, Elyse Goldberg

Title: The Myth of Autism Subtitle: How a Misunderstood Epidemic Is Destroying Our Children Author: Dr. Michael Goldberg, Elyse Goldberg Narrator: Clinton Wade Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 19 mins Language: English Release date: 02-03-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 22 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Everyone seems to agree that we have an epidemic of what is diagnosed as autism. But, in the history of our society, there has never been "an epidemic" of any developmental or genetic disorder. Yet, over the span of 30 years, autism has gone from affecting one in 5,000 children to one in 90, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. So what is this "autism", which has come to affect the lives of so many? In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Goldberg and his colleagues illustrate why autism must be a symptom of a treatable, neurological disease that attacks the brains immune system. Through Goldbergs personal anecdotes, case studies, and original research, you will come to understand that autism is: In order to save children from the disease and social stigma of autism, Dr. Goldberg unpacks the myth behind the illness and provides a wealth of diagnostic and treatment information that will transform your own life and the lives of those around you. Editorial Reviews: Students of popular science and parents of autistic children will want to hear The Myth of Autism: How a Misunderstood Epidemic is Destroying Our Children, by Dr. Michael Goldberg (with Elyse Goldberg). Dr. Goldberg, a practicing doctor with decades of experience, challenges many of the most commonly held assumptions about this increasingly visible condition. Among Dr. Goldberg's theses is the idea that autism, correctly understood, is not a condition at all but a disease that can be treated with diet and medication. Narrator Clinton Wade gives a clear and measured reading of the research and experience Dr. Goldberg relies upon to make this controversial claim. While occasionally daunting to the lay-listener, The Myth of Autism is nevertheless filled with fascinating and unorthodox ideas. Members Reviews: Overall good book takes an open mind Where does The Myth of Autism rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? This book is quite a bit different than most books I read or listen to so that is a difficult question to answer and I will leave blank. What other book might you compare The Myth of Autism to and why? I have no book to compare to. What about Clinton Wades performance did you like? Clinton Wade seemed to do OK for how the book is written. Lots of information and not many chances for expression of emotions even though he seemed to do well when there was. If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be? A documentary of a different approach to Autism. Any additional comments? This is a good book with an open mind. I really wish the Author would not have obsessed with the differences in diagnosis. For example, a diagnosis of Bipolar disorder even though it is a psychological disorder Bipolar disorder can be derived from physical or mental abuse creating a psychological disorder. So his argument against what we call Autism is a waste of time for me. Even though I think what he says could absolutely be right about treating someone with Autism.

The author explores a wide range of research work, historical accounts, and personal stories in this intensive look at the backstory of cancer.

The author examines historical accounts of cancer, focusing mostly on events dating from the 1940s to present time. Along the way he discusses how cancer research evolved and how perceptions of the disease and its impact on the world changed with each account.

Yet for more than a decade, women have been told about many worrisome side effects of hormone replacement therapy, including an increased risk of cancer, blood clots, and heart disease. In The Estrogen Window, Dr. Mache Seibel shows that not taking estrogen at the right time following menopause actually increases the risk of suffering one of those events. Falling estrogen levels also increase a woman's risk for heart disease and Alzheimer's as well as osteoporosis. Dr. Seibel presents groundbreaking research that proves how every woman has an "estrogen window", an ideal time to begin estrogen replacement, that can minimize menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, fractured sleep, brain fog, irritability, and weight gain. Not only can women safely take estrogen during this window, but taking the hormone this way also provides a wide range of health benefits that guarantee women increased protection from the very conditions they have been led to fear most. Critic Reviews: " The Estrogen Window offers an easy-to-read explanation that removes the confusion regarding how to safely take estrogen." (Sara Gottfried, MD, author of The Hormone Reset Diet) Members Reviews: Very informative Loved this book. Great up to date information so a woman can make an informed decision about menopausal therapy.

Title: The Autism Revolution Subtitle: Whole-Body Strategies for Making Life All It Can Be Author: Karen Weintraub, Martha Herbert Narrator: Denice Stradling Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 43 mins Language: English Release date: 03-27-12 Publisher: Random House Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 58 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: Move beyond conventional thinking about autism.... After years of treating patients and analyzing scientific data, prominent Harvard researcher and clinician Dr. Martha Herbert offers a revolutionary new view of autism and a transformative strategy for dealing with it. Autism is not a hardwired impairment programmed into a childs genes and destined to remain fixed forever, as were often told. Instead, it is the result of a cascade of events, many seemingly minor: perhaps a genetic mutation, some toxic exposures, a stressful birth, a vitamin deficiency, and a series of infections. And while other doctors may dismiss your childs physical symptoms - the diarrhea, anxiety, sensory overload, sleeplessness, immune challenges, and seizures - as coincidental or irrelevant, Dr. Herbert sees them as vital clues to what the underlying problems are and how to help. In The Autism Revolution, she teaches you how to approach autism as a collection of problems that can be overcome - and talents that can be developed. Each success you achieve gives your child more room to become healthy and to thrive. Drawing from the newest research, technologies, and insights, as well as inspiring case studies of both children and adults, Dr. Herbert guides you toward restoring health and resiliency in your loved one with autism. Her specific recommendations aim to provide optimal nutrition, reduce toxic exposures, shore up the immune system, reduce stress, and open the door to learning and creativity - all by understanding and truly meeting your childs needs. As thousands of families who have cobbled together these solutions themselves already know, this program can have dramatic benefits - for your child with autism as well as for you, your whole family, and your next baby as well. A paradigm-changing book that offers hope and healing for the millions of families who have autism in their lives, The Autism Revolution shows that theres plenty you can do every day to give someone you love the best possible gift: a life lived to the fullest potential. Critic Reviews: Martha Herberts book gives us a new approach to understanding how autism affects many different body systems. It is essential reading for learning more about sensible biomedical treatments. (Temple Grandin, author of Thinking in Pictures and The Way I See It) Members Reviews: Do Your Own Homework Would you try another book from Karen Weintraub and Martha Herbert and/or Denice Stradling? No. Having raised a profoundly autistic child, I heard nothing new from this book except that there was more information that had been gathered through the years about treatments I had already heard of.

Gluten Exposed Audiobook by Peter H. R. Green

Ochlan Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 34 mins Language: English Release date: 05-24-16 Publisher: HarperAudio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Science & Technology, Medicine Publisher's Summary: In this definitive book on gluten, the authors of Celiac Disease: A Hidden Epidemic cut through the misinformation, false claims, and widespread confusion over gluten to explain the science behind the current gluten-free craze and examine the food-brain-gut triangle to reveal what's really going on in our bodies and our brains. A regimen once followed by those diagnosed with gluten intolerance or celiac disease (a serious autoimmune disorder), gluten-free diets have become a panacea, "prescribed" not only by gastroenterologists but also by dieticians, nutritionists, naturopaths, trainers, psychiatrists, and neurologists. Believing that eliminating gluten is healthier or that it will help them lose weight, droves of people are adopting a gluten-free lifestyle - and the food industry has responded with shelves of gluten-free products. Yet there is little scientific evidence to substantiate this trend, and the latest medical findings have shown that much of what is commonly accepted about gluten is wrong. While the gluten-free diet works for some people - and is a lifesaver for those with celiac disease - going gluten free may injure our health, robbing us of essential nutrients and masking our real problems. Dr. Peter H. R. Green, an internationally renowned expert on celiac disease and director of the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University, and Rory Jones provide much-needed medical truths about gluten. Gluten Exposed is an inside-out examination of every symptom and condition associated with gluten; how gluten works in the body; what the gluten-free diet cures - and what it doesn't; and which drugs, supplements, and foods often cause problems blamed on gluten alone. It offers clear, welcome guidance and specific disease-based road maps that can help anyone achieve a healthier, symptom-free life. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio. Members Reviews: An Incredible Resource for Well-Being Written in clear, concise prose, you can learn what's known, and what still is out there to be learned, about a continuum of digestive disorders ranging from celiac disease to wheat allergies and IBS. If you have gluten sensitivity, a wheat allergy or celiac disease you will learn something incredibly useful on every page to guide you through a healthier and less daunting life. For those who have a choice about whether to eat gluten, the facts are presented compellingly. You make your own decision, but are now aware of the issues and concerns of a special, restricted diet on an otherwise healthy person. The book is science, not preachiness. Facts are presented with all sides of what's known and they are carefully laid out. This book is a wonderful resource, and I recommend it wholeheartedly. I just finished reading Gluten Exposed, and found it ... I just finished reading Gluten Exposed, and found it to be another valuable resource from authors, Peter H.R. Green, MD and Rory Jones, MS. The book won me at the first quote, "The fewer the facts, the stronger the opinion." The authors kept true to presenting science based evidence throughout, which is so needed in today's environment. The authors have written an in depth book on a complex medical subject, yet it is remarkably readable and even enjoyable.

Caffeine is a highly addictive drug, does not offer any nutritional value and has not been proven safe. Epidemiological, clinical and laboratory studies link caffeine to heart disease, pancreas cancer, bladder cancer, hypoglycemia and central nervous system disorders. New and updated third edition. Members Reviews: Very informative and an easy to listen. What made the experience of listening to The Truth about Caffeine the most enjoyable? I can honestly say I learned a whole lot about caffeine while listening to this audio. I am a daily coffee drinker and had no idea about the effects of caffeine on the body. As woman I especially found the information about caffeine and its effects on womens bodies very informative. Additionally, the reference studies use/given in the audio were eye-opening and easy to understand. If you are a person who likes resource detail you will find a great deal of them here. The case studies used are very informative. Also I found the voice narrative - person - easy to listen to. I was not bored and I would recommend this audio greatly. Who was your favorite character and why? My favorite part was the information about caffeine effects on womens bodies. I had no idea that there was a connection. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? This is a rather long audio and I listened to it in several parts before finishing it. Any additional comments? I would recommend this audio for the information it gives about caffeine effects on womens bodies A dire warning for caffeine abusers Would you listen to The Truth about Caffeine again? Why? The over abundance of anecdotal evidence does not lend itself to a reference utility nor is it fascinating story telling. Most people do not consider themselves abusers, but the addictive qualities of coffee's caffeine delivery should not be ignored. What was one of the most memorable moments of The Truth about Caffeine? The effect of presenting only the dark side of caffeine's efficacy was amply illustrated by the cancer scare of the eighties. As with most moderate stimulants, prudent analyses suggests little or no causal connection to the disease if taken in moderation. What three words best describe Timothy McKeans performance? clarity, precision, easy listening Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I became dulled by the long list of anecdotal findings. Not clear where the book was headed or why it was organized this way. Any additional comments? Needs more stream lining. Coffee is bad for its abusers is hardly a headline. A more balanced presentation (e.g. good points about caffeine) would allow the reader to make a more effective judgement. Convincing story Story is convincing but lacks enough scientific studies. Sounds more like a claim than facts. Made me convert to tea, so I am happy... Where does The Truth about Caffeine rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? This audio-book was great at repeating the side effects of too much caffeine consumption repeatedly, repeatedly, repeatedly. Dehydration, diarrhea, headaches, dependency, and the list goes on.
