About this title

About the Author

Mysore Ramakrishna Rajasekhar, a practicing surgeon and proctologist.In the 46 years that I have spent in the medical field, I have witnessed the paradigm shift that has taken place in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. The sophistication, accuracy, safety in the practice of modern medicine today is phenomenal. However, with the foray of all branches of sciences, media, legalities, and commerce into the medical practice, we lost the plot. We were led to believe that technology is the only solution and suffice to be legally correct. Our end goal was to banish diseases while our means were science and numbers. We forgot that the pivotal point of all our efforts was to maintain the health of fellow human beings. We became focused on statistics and publications. This became the evidence that we held on to, as gospel truth, without giving much thought to its insufficiency or negative effect. That's why I decided to write this book. My main goal here is to promote individual health consciousness so that they are able to prevent lifestyle diseases.
