The Canyon Ranch Guide To Men's Health by Stephen Brewer Md

"Brewer, medical director at Canyon Ranch Health Resort in Tucson, Ariz, and a specialist in preventative and integrative medicine, encourages men to take a good look at the state of their health and become accountable for it. The book is divided into four parts, with part one, 'Where You Are Now, and Where Can You Be?', highlighting the importance of an annual 'maintenance check,' i.e., physical exam. Part two, 'Your Health at Different Times of Life,' analyzes physiological status and makes recommendations for five separate age groups, from age 18 to 80-plus. Part three, 'Your Health by Function,' addresses individual systems of the male body, covering such topics as sexual function, cardiac disease (the leading cause of death in men), dementia, prostate cancer, and exercise injuries. Part four, 'Your Health by Strategy,' explains the vital need for quality sleep and outlines an "almost vegetarian" diet with vitamin and mineral supplements. This section also introduces epigenetics and looks at how sustained healthy habits can 'turn genes on or off in a positive way.' This accessible handbook is equal parts factual and friendly, and it will help men conquer their health fears and make wise choices for healthy, long lives." Publishers Weekly
