The international bestseller, Dr Michael Greger's How Not To Die
gives effective, scientifically-proven nutritional advice to
prevent our biggest killers - including heart disease, breast
cancer, prostate cancer, high blood pressure and diabetes - and
reveals the astounding health benefits that simple dietary choices
can provide. Why rely on drugs and surgery to cure you of
life-threatening disease when the right decisions can prevent you
from falling ill to begin with? Based on the latest scientific
research, How Not To Die examines each of the most common diseases
to reveal what, how and why different foods affect us, and how
increasing our consumption of certain foods and avoiding others can
dramatically reduce our risk of falling sick and even reverse the
effects of disease. It also shares Dr Greger's 'Daily Dozen' - the
twelve foods we should all eat every day to stay in the best of
health. With emphasis on individual family health history and
acknowledging that everyone needs something different, Dr Michael
Greger offers practical dietary advice to help you live longer,
healthier lives. 'Dr Michael Greger reveals the foods that will
help you live longer' - Daily Mail
In this essential book on gluten, Dr. Peter H. R. Green,
internationally renowned expert on celiac disease and director of
the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University, and acclaimed
medical writer Rory Jones reveal the real scientific story behind
the current gluten-free craze, identifying what is true and what is
just pseudoscience. In recent years, gluten has become a villain,
getting blamed for anything and everything from heart disease and
dementia to neuralgia and fatigue. Droves of people are adopting a
gluten-free lifestyle, believing it's healthier or that it will
help them lose weight and increase their energy. The diet, a
regimen once followed only by those diagnosed with celiac disease
(a serious autoimmune disorder caused by gluten), has become a
cure-all, "prescribed" not only by gastroenterologists but also by
dietitians, nutritionists, naturopaths, trainers, psychiatrists,
and neurologists, as well as by celebrities and media
personalities. Yet as Gluten Exposed reveals, there is little
scientific evidence to justify this trend. The latest medical
findings have shown that the majority of the information available
about the effects of gluten on the body is only partly correct, or
almost wholly incorrect. Green and Jones, authors of Celiac
Disease: A Hidden Epidemic, cut through the misinformation, false
claims, and widespread confusion over gluten. They examine the
connections between the gut, brain, and what you ingest (not just
gluten, but other food and drugs) to reveal what's really going on
in your body and your brain. They also bring to light the potential
dangers of going gluten-free. While the diet is a lifesaver for
those with celiac disease, for others it may injure health, rob the
body of essential nutrients, and mask real problems. In fact, one
of the biggest risks of going on a gluten-free diet without
properly testing for what is causing your symptoms is postponing or
missing a potentially serious diagnosis. Gluten Exposed provides an
in-depth examination of every symptom and condition associated with
gluten, how gluten works in the body, what a gluten-free diet
cures-and what it doesn't-and which drugs, supplements, and foods
can cause problems often blamed on gluten alone. It offers clear,
welcome guidance and a practical road map that can help anyone
achieve a healthier, symptom-free life.
