Summary

In this informative and lively book, 101 top physicians, medical researchers, and health experts share with the reader what they do to keep themselves and their families healthy.

Each chapter focuses on a specific disorder and features a primary doctor and one or more "second opinions." The disorder is defined by the primary doctor, the common symptoms are detailed, and up-to-the-minute research confirming the doctor's findings are presented. The doctor offers his or her personal nutritional, supplemental, and/or lifestyle measures. Q&A's, lists, charts, round-ups, and profiles complement the entry; and chapter wrap-ups highlight the most important points readers should remember.
