Synopsis

We use prescription medications too much, neglecting simpler, safer and more effective options. Conventional and alternative therapies provide relief, but neither is as powerful as the essential health habits. No prescription drug, herb, or supplement can replace those habits. Nearly every health problem can be improved or even cured by making simple changes. This is the way to feel better now, while becoming healthier at the same time.

Throughout his career, Michael Carlston, MD, has encountered many patients with chronic health issues who continue to suffer in spite of carefully following their doctor’s orders. He has seen those same patients overcome their ill health and reduce or eliminate their need for prescription drugs by implementing practical lifestyle changes. With too many people looking for a magic pill, Dr. Carlston has found that we can take control of our lives by incorporating common sense and sustainable changes that promote good health and vitality.

In clear, accessible language, Dr. Carlston outlines ten essential health habits necessary for optimal wellness, before discussing complementary and alternative medicine. A far cry from fad diets or miracle drugs, this book is for anyone who wants to do a better job caring for themselves or loved ones, but needs to know where to start.

The first volume in the Better Than Medicines: Getting Healthy and Feeling Better by Taking Care of the Simple Things series, this book represents the compiled knowledge and wisdom of one medical doctor’s thirty plus years of practice. Its pages introduce the simple daily practices and habits that are fundamental to health and wellness, and guide the reader along a path toward better health.
