Did Your Doctor Tell You?: Medical Misconceptions Exposed - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

We have become so accustomed to following doctors' orders that we seldom question them. In this title, the author highlights those areas of health care in which medical treatment is most often not in accordance with published scientific information. The material is presented in such a way that the lay reader, who is interested in health matters, can easily understand the arguments and evidence. Above all, the objective is to enable the reader to engage in an intelligent discussion with his or her doctor in order to sort out those aspects of treatment that are most appropriate. Read about the drugs that are prescribed to lower blood cholesterol, prevent osteoporosis, alleviate the symptoms of menopause, treat HIV/AIDS, cancer and hidden anaemia, and the importance of probiotics.
