Description: Weaving together the wisdom of traditional medicine and the knowledge of modern-day medicine, this book offers an elegant message of health and self-affirmation for women of every age. It can be read cover to cover or dipped into for insight about a particular issue or remedy. In it we learn that, despite today's medical innovations, chronic illness now affects more than 50 percent of Americansand the evidence points overwhelmingly to lifestyle as the root cause. Research shows that if Americans embraced a healthier lifestyle, then we could prevent 93 percent of diabetes, 81 percent of heart attacks, 50 percent of strokes, and 36 percent of cancers. This means that each one of us has the power to shift the odds of being healthy in our favor. Your health has a great deal more to do with your lifestyle and a lot less to do with taking prescription drugs than most people realize.
