Love the Sense of Humor
I love this Healthier and Younger book. The Doctors write with such a great sense of humor. They make learning fun. It is a great reference book, and I will keep it on my bookshelf for a very long time.
What do you really know about your body?
The College Bookstore we live in a society that is obsessed with health and body image, yet most of us know very little about how the ole’ system works. Even those who think they know a lot (myself included) have a lot to learn from this wonderful book. From your immune system to how your body processes the nutrients you put inside it, You: The Owners Manual is a real eye opener and a great book for the health conscious.
Simple & easy guide to your body - it is not just for dummies, good for even the most “well read folks”
There is so much information about our body, diseases & fitness on the internet that most of us would think that we do not need to read another book on our bodies, hmm, well think of it again - do you really understand what and how does our arteries get clogged, what might cause cancer, or did you know that exercising more could actually do more harm …
I used to think that I am well read about my body, not until I read this book - some of the most common ailments and body functions are so well explained with diagrams that you will never get this information on the internet - not on wikipedia, not on webmd - you may find lots of information, but not in a way in which we can understand.
The Cheap college textbook may seem silly at times, grouse at times, but a very informative and helpful book if you are planning to be live a healthy life on this planet for a couple of years/decades to come.
How did this College Bookstore book help me:
- Understood more about heart diseases & cancer
- Importance of flavinoids in our diet
- Importance of drinking good amount of water for many common ailments
- Controlling stress is a more important than anything else and cannot be stressed enough
- Exercising more can be bad (limit to 30 mins per day) - alternate between cardio, stretches & weights
- Importance of deep breathing
- Free weights are better than machines
