Unpleasant, uncomfortable, and unexplained side effects? Drug
Muggers is your side effect solution.
Prescription and over-the-counter drugs help millions of people
with devastat-ing diseases and chronic conditions. But in the
process, these medications can also deplete the body's natural
stores of vitamins, minerals, and hormones--the very nutrients you
need to keep energy levels high, fend off infections, and be
healthy. Pharmacist Suzy Cohen calls these medications "drug
muggers," and she says it's essential to replenish what a drug
mugger steals from your body in order to feel your best and avoid
side effects. Not understanding the drug-mugging effect may lead to
new "diseases" and possibly catastrophic health con-sequences.

effects

Living Longer: The heart-mind connection is written for all those
who strive for optimal long-term health and the maximal functioning
of their hearts and minds. Today's problem for the health-conscious
individual is information overload - new health studies pour out
almost daily from newspapers, radio stations and television
networks. Many of the reports are contradictory and often
misleading.
In this book, Professor Opie sifts through the available
information on the vast number of possible health promotion
changes, varying from increased exercise to aspirin to green tea,
and diets from Atkins to the vegetarian, with the aim of grading
the validity of the evidence, asking questions such as, "Just how
true are the studies" and "Just how compelling are the facts they
claim"? Living Longer guides the reader through this morass of
information with the message that just five key steps taken now
will promote long-term health benefits for heart and mind and give
protection from future heart disease and brain deterioration.
This unique and easy-to-use layman's reference takes the mystery
out of the bewildering array of health and labeling information
that faces us every time we go to a grocery or health food store.
Using this simple guide to the most important food elements and
additives, readers can find out everything the average person needs
to know to make healthy choices in eating and diet supplementation.
Eileen Renders has pulled together a practical reference that
boils down essential information from research studies, her own
ongoing work in the field, and standard dietary and chemical
references. Each topic is covered in a separate alphabetized
chapter. In one chapter the author lists and describes all the
additives that you will commonly see on labels or that may be used
without labeling -- including additives used to preserve,
condition, or "beautify", those that are proved or suspected to be
harmful, as well as those that are benign or even beneficial. She
devotes a chapter to processed foods that have been largely
stripped of nutritional value and suggests tasty, nutritious
substitutes. Several chapters provide information on nutrients --
their functions, typical deficiencies, and generally accepted
therapeutic qualities. Chapters on amino acids, vitamins and
minerals with trace minerals), oils and essential fatty acids,
enzymes, and antioxidents are included. Food sources of these
various nutrients are considered in a separate chapter, as are
dietary supplements. Offering quick authoritative answers in plain
language and an easy-to-use format, Renders' book is he only
up-to-date reference that covers all these important topics under
one cover. It will simplify life for anyone concernedwith planning
tasty nutritious meals and insuring a healthy diet.
