Subtitle: Evidence-based insights into protecting your health and preventing the major lifestyle killers of modern man

MOST PEOPLE KILL THEMSELVES…knowingly or unknowingly. They are seduced into believing that doctors and scientists can always fix their medical problems, and the medical community at large has encouraged the belief that there will be "a pill for every ill."

INTELLIGENT PEOPLE KNOW BETTER. It is time to stop chasing after quick fixes and take a serious look at the evidence. The diseases that kill 70 percent of Americans—cardiovascular diseases (heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure), type II diabetes, and some cancers—are preventable, controllable, and sometimes reversible by changing the way we eat and live. While we should salute all medical and scientific research and recognize the roles that genes play, what really matters is your lifestyle—those things you choose or choose not to do.

This book is an honest (no hypes or false promises), up-to-date, and scientifically-balanced look at why and how to look after yourself. It imparts insights and lays out a provocative approach on how to stay healthy or regain lost health.
