The Dreiling Health Resource, 2nd Edition: Essential Health Information, from A Biblical, Holistic, Integrative, Natural-Leaning Approach
Synopsis "The Dreiling Health Resource, 2nd Edition: Essential Health Information, from A Biblical, Holistic, Integrative, Natural-Leaning Approach"
Driven by unhealthy lifestyles and a medical model that's incomplete at best (and dangerous at worst), America's health crisis rages on- more than 750k annual deaths from cardiovascular disease and another 610k from cancer- both diseases largely driven by lifestyle choices.Conventional medicine to the rescue? Hardly. Medical error is the 3rd leading cause of death among adults, killing at least 250k/year. And that's not to mention the 350k who die from lung disease, Alzheimer's and diabetes each year, or the well-publicized increases in obesity (America is the most obese of the 120 countries with 5 million people), autism (rates have quadrupled over the last 20 years) and chronic pain (50% of adults are affected).And then there's the absurd cost of healthcare, with the average American paying $10,000 annually, making the U.S. the most healthcare-expensive country in the world.Is there hope for America? YES! But it involves abandoning the Standard Unhealthy Lifestyle and embracing a smart, holistic, integrative, natural-leaning approach to health. This book was written to give YOU the essential info needed to take control of your health, reduce pain, increase energy, lose excess weight and make progress against disease.
