READ YOUR WAY HEALTHY

I have a fantastic resource for you if you value your health and realize that it is really up to YOU to take responsibility for it and do all you can to keep yourself healthy. You can then llive a long and happy life not relying on the health care system, your children, realtives, scooters and/or walking aides. Wouldn't you rather be mobile and independent and really able to enjoy your later years?

The web site is called Health Book Summaries and it is one of my favorites! That is because I do love to read and learn about health and wellness.

Why this is so great is that (as the name says) it summarizes health books for you. Not many of us have time to sit and read a full book or many books on the myriad of health topics that exist. Also, the money involved in buying all the books on health would be very pricey.

Health Book Summaries lists a wide variety of up-to-date health books. It displays each book cover, the tittle and the author. Next to that there is a button to click on to read the summary. It is fantastic!! If you love the summary and want to learn/know/read more you can also purchase the book on that site.

Below I have listed some names of books and their authors that appear on this site. Please note that this is just a small listing of the many books they have.

"Never Be Sick Again: Health is a Choice, Learn How to Choose It."
by Raymond Francis with Kester Cotton
(This is definately my motto)

"Surviving America's Depression Epidemic: How to Find Morale, Energy & Community In a World Gone Crazy"
by Bruce E Livine, PhD
(Far too many woman are being prescribed anti-depressants that don't help them and only cause side effects and/or get them more depressed and unable to deal with life. Things have to change)

"The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health & Rediscover Your Inner Glow."
by Phuli Cohan, MD
(If you are in your late 30's and beyond - check this one out for sure)

"The Food Solution: All-Natural Ways to Banish Anxiety, Depression, Anger, Stress, Overeating, Alcohol & Drug Problems - and Feel Good Again." 
by Jack Challem
(Now who wouldn't want to read this after seeing that title?!)


"Perfect Health: The Natural Way"
by Mary-Ann Shearer
(Plain and simple title - stating it like it is - great!)

"The Anti-Aging Solution: 5 Simple Steps to Looking & Feeling Young."
by Vincent Giampapa MD, Ronald Pero PhD, Marcia Zimmerman CN
(Only 5 steps - and simple! - I want to know!...Don't you?)


"Keep Your Brain Young: The Complete Guide to Physical & Emotional Health and Longevity."
by Guy McKhann MD, Marilyn Albert PhD
(I know you know how important this one is)

"Shrink Yourself: Break Free from Emotional Eating Forever."
by Roger Gould MD
(I loved this one and I learned something that I didn't realize before - about my eating habits - that one things has made a HUGE difference for me - this is a must read)

Like I mentioned above, these are just a few of the books that are summarized on this site and available for viewing. This resource is great while travelling. If you have your lap top along you can click on one of the summaries and read and learn while you wait for your plane, ride on the train, bus or a passanger in a car. The summaries are not long - maybe about 10 pages so you can get some great tips and ideas in a short period of time.

Instead of sitting and reading a trashy magazine or paper giving you information that doesn't really matter - why not read and learn things that can greatly improve your life and your health and that of your family.

Check it out and I KNOW you will find a few books that you will really enjoy.

Stay Healthy & Happy!
