Your Guide To Finding The Right Orthodontist For Your Child

Med Spa Mayhem is a compelling and must-read book that delves deep into the often unforeseen dangers lurking within the medical spa industry. Dr. Kate Dee brings her extensive expertise and experience to the forefront, offering a critical examination of the growing trend of med spa treatments and the potential risks they can pose.

The book serves as both an exposé and a guide for anyone wishing to have med spa treatments. Dr. Dee begins by painting a vivid picture of the allure of medical spas, establishments that have become synonymous with luxury, relaxation, and the promise of enhanced beauty. However, as she peels back the layers, a different picture emerges—one of unregulated practices, inadequately trained practitioners, and a startling lack of oversight that can result in dangerous outcomes.

The book presents case studies and personal anecdotes that illustrate the severe consequences for patients suffering from negligent practices in med spas. These stories not only highlight physical harm and emotional trauma experienced by clients but also underscore the lack of accountability within the industry and lack of enforcement of existing law. Dr. Dee shows how these spas often prioritize profit over patient safety, leading to dangerous shortcuts and unethical practices.

Most importantly, Dr. Dee equips readers with practical advice on how to identify reputable med spas, understand the qualifications of practitioners, and make informed decisions about cosmetic treatments. She stresses the importance of consumer education in ensuring their own safety and satisfaction.

Med Spa Mayhem is not just a critique of the med spa industry; it's a compelling page-turner that empowers readers to demand and receive safe, ethical, and high-quality care in their pursuit of beauty. This book is essential reading for anyone considering med spa treatments, policymakers, and healthcare professionals alike.

1 in 4 people capable of giving birth will have an abortion in their lifetime.

Abortion is common. It’s everyday. It’s healthcare. Abortion is a moral choice for people who despite the shouting voices around them understand that they have the ability to control their fertility the way people with uteruses have for thousands of years and as they will continue to do for thousands of years to come, no matter the barriers thrown in their path. These people understand that being human means controlling the trajectory of their lives. When faced with a dangerous or unwanted pregnancy, they gather the strength to put away the self-serving opinions of others and listen to their hearts.

Undue Burden argues for these people and for abortion as a moral good using the framework of Reproductive Justice. It lays out why it’s no longer enough for us to say we’re pro-choice, but instead we must proudly proclaim to be pro-abortion. It illustrates how when we force people to continue pregnancies and bring children into the world without providing any of the support systems to help sustain them, we are creating conditions of misery. Through the lens of Reproductive Justice, Undue Burden explains why anti-abortion extremists actually want this misery to exist.

It's time to reclaim the moral high ground from the anti-abortion movement. Undue Burden utilizes the tools of Reproductive Justice to allow pro-abortion advocates to:

• Use Christian doctrine to refute extremist Christians
• Build intersectional coalitions between diverse groups
• Establish abortion care as necessary healthcare
• Center the voices of those most affected by anti-abortion laws: Black people, POC, Indigenous people, people with disabilities, LGBTQ+ people, and the economically disadvantaged.
• Critique why “pro-choice” is no longer the way forward.
• Examine how and why abortion was criminalized in the first place.
• Understand the various forces of oppression including racism, ableism, misogyny, white supremacy, heteronormality, and how they intersect with the anti-abortion movement.

Author Dr. DeShawn Taylor tells stories of her life, medical training, and practice to center the everyday situations of everyday people struggling with forces outside their control like unaffordable childcare, lack of access to health care, insufficient paid time off, and unsafe communities. She argues that only when we reframe abortion as a social justice issue can we take back the moral high ground from the extremist Christians and “family values” politicians who have controlled the conversation for far too long.

Dr. Taylor shows that ensuring that all people have the right to not have children, have children, and to parent children in safe and healthy communities is the only way to remove the undue burdens that plague our most vulnerable communities.

Many of us create long-term, family-wide relationships with our trusted dentists and have enjoyed some new technologies along the way. We are all beginning to hear about innovations in dentistry and discoveries about the relationship of dental health to overall well-being.

What if we thought about dental health as the foundation for physical health?

WebMD notes that “up to 91 percent of patients with heart disease have periodontitis, compared to 66 percent of people with no heart disease. The two conditions have several risk factors, such as smoking, an unhealthy diet, and excess weight. And some suspect that periodontitis has a direct role in raising the risk for heart disease.”

These new ideas and evidence-based innovations are bubbling up all over the country, and we call this biologic dentistry. That can mean many things, so we need to sort out the evidence-based innovations from the hopeful theories. __________________________

These new ideas and evidence-based innovations are bubbling up all over the country, and we call this biologic dentistry. That can mean many things, so we need to sort out the evidence-based innovations from the hopeful theories.

One of America’s top champions of biologic dentistry is Dr. Robert Herzog, a general dentist with twenty-five years of experience practicing in Albany, NY. As a trained and gifted engineer who later completed training as a general dentist, Dr. Herzog has made a passion out of sorting out the best innovative new processes and tools.

He wants to educate people on what they should know but perhaps don't know yet.

Dr. Herzog’s new book Biologic Dentistry and a Better You constructs a well-engineered bridge you can safely traverse to a place to better look at the marvels of holistic dentistry. You can stop and absorb the original new ideas rushing to meet you. You can move closer to your horizon and consider some carefully curated holistic ideas about biologic dentistry and its impact on your total health.

Dr. Herzog offers a fascinating view of the mouth-body connection and the danger most of us face with mercury amalgam fillings. Many of us have different and dissimilar metals in our mouths, which can create microcurrents and, consequently, brain fog.

He champions cleaner methods, safer extractions, 3D x-ray CT imaging, ozone and lasers, solutions for jaw disorders, better breathing and sleep, the lymphatic system, retaining wisdom teeth, and discusses newly revealed dangers of root canals.

Biologic Dentistry and a Better You helps us visualize our family’s dental health from a new perspective. It’s not just about teeth anymore. Medical science now embraces the electrifying realization that the body is deeply interconnected. When something isn’t right, it often shows up in the mouth. "

WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER HAVE AN OPERATION IN JULY AND OTHER LIFESAVING ADVICE!

"This book offers practical advice about how to keep yourself free from harm and error in hospitals, and how to assert yourself in cases such as getting stuck with a bad roommate or a rude doctor. Includes chapters on taking children to the hospital and how to be prepared before an emergency." — The Wall Street Journal

Includes practical tips, warnings and surprising information you doctor might not tell you, such as the fact that July, when the new interns start, is the most dangerous month to have a procedure done at a teaching hospital; EMLA anesthetic cream can be requested to be used on children’s skin, allowing for less painful I.V. starts; and washing off all iodine-based antiseptics thoroughly after surgery can prevent chemical burns. Proven tips for reducing hospital bills are also presented.

Dr Sherer will teach you how to:

"I recommend this book for everyone, especially people who are undergoing their first operation in a hospital. Being aware of the services offered or not offered in the hospital and learning ways to reduce anxiety can be invaluable throughout one’s hospital stay. For health care providers, the Hospital Survival Guide offers excellent insight into many of the uncertainties that patients face as they enter into the unknown world of the hospital. Even though we hear the alarming statistics every day, the book is a powerful reminder of all of the mistakes that can be made in the course of care and what we all can do to reduce the likelihood of experiencing a medical error ourselves." — P&T® Journal

The Best-Kept Secret in Medicine

In the United States, the FDA currently recognizes hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) for 14 conditions, including decompression sickness, embolism, crush injury, bone infection, burns, wound healing, severe anemia, and several others.

Now, in The Oxygen Cure, hyperbaric expert William S. Maxfield, M.D., will convince you that HBOT is a vastly underused modality that deserves to take its place among frontline medical treatments. As a holistic treatment, HBOT targets the underlying disease or condition, not just the symptoms.

The Oxygen Cure reveals how hundreds of studies on HBOT conducted around the world prove it works at the cellular level to help or heal conditions such as:

• Stroke
• Chemo-Related Side Effects
• Epilepsy
• Fibromyalgia
• Emphysema & Asthma
• ADHD
• Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Cardiac Diseases
• Migraine & Vertigo
• Early Dementia
• Vision Loss
• Multiple Sclerosis & Parkinson's Disease
• Traumatic Brain Injury & PTSD
• And Dozens More

HBOT often provides a safe alternative to drug therapy and dangerous invasive procedures.

CLINICALLY PROVEN REMEDIES TO PREVENT AND TREAT 75 CHRONIC DISEASES AND CONDITIONS

COMPLETELY REVISED AND UPDATED BASED ON NEW MEDICAL RESEARCH

Based on over 40 years of research and hundreds of leading studies, The Vitamin Cure is a comprehensive guide to improving overall health with vitamin and essential element therapies.

Modern medicine has done much in the field of acute conditions such as trauma, infections, burn, and bone fractures, but it has limited success in treating chronic diseases, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, cancer, and diabetes among others. At present, the root causes of most chronic diseases are still unknown, and the drugs developed by pharmaceutical companies to treat chronic diseases actually treat only the symptoms rather than causes. According to Dr. Monte Lai, a nutrient deficient diet and unhealthy lifestyle are by far the two most important environmental factors associated with the causes of a host of chronic diseases. The Vitamin Cure provides a comprehensive overview of how vitamin and essential element therapies are the key to treating and preventing many of the chronic conditions.

While the internet is chock full of health related information about vitamins and essential elements, it is difficult to sort through all available information to build a reliable knowledge base to improve health. The aim of this book is to provide readers with easily accessible evidence-based knowledge about vitamins and essential elements for prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. The Vitamin Cure relies on a statistical method known as meta-analysis (combining data from multiple studies) that is currently the most reliable method for assessing the efficacy of vitamins or essential elements in preventing or treating chronic diseases.

The Vitamin Cure brings clinically proven remedies to light for any reader looking to improve overall health and prevent debilitating disease. This book contains five parts:

• Part one contains a brief history of the discovery of each of the thirteen essential vitamins, namely, vitamin A, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B3, vitamin B5, vitamin B6, vitamin B7, vitamin B9, vitamin B12, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin E, and vitamin K. It also presents meta-analytic evidence of the efficacy of each vitamin in prevention and treatment of diseases, its recommended daily allowance and best food sources. 
• Part two covers essential elements, including the five essential elements, i.e., calcium, potassium, sodium, magnesium and phosphorous, and the eight essential trace elements, i.e., iron, zinc, manganese, copper, molybdenum, iodine, chromium and selenium. It also presents meta-analytic evidence of the efficacy of each essential element in prevention and treatment of diseases, its recommended daily allowance and best food sources. 
• Part three explains important secrets for staying healthy. These include explanation of how sugar makes you fat, why patients with autoimmune diseases should not eat meat, and how exercise benefits the brain? 
• Part four provides meta-analysis evidence of which vitamins and essential elements should be taken to prevent and/or treat seventy-five chronic diseases and conditions. These seventy-five chronic diseases and conditions include lung cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, endometrial cancer, blood cancer, bladder cancer, glioma, diabetes, stroke, heart disease, cataracts, hypertension, Alzheimer's disease, osteoporosis, arthritis, hepatitis C, fatty liver disease, Parkinson's disease, sleep apnea, and others. 
• Part five summarizes clinically proven remedies for preventing and treating the seventy-five chronic diseases and conditions presented in Part four.

Reviving the teachings and practices of Swami Kripalu

“Richard Faulds brings Swami Kripalu alive in a book that illumines the breadth and depth of yoga.” —Stephen Cope, author, Yoga and the Quest for the True Self

Like the Indian sages in whose footsteps he walked, Swami Kripalu taught yoga as a wisdom tradition in which disciples maintain a close personal relationship to their guru and demonstrate their fitness to receive each level of its esoteric curriculum through the intensity of their study, practice, and devotion. He adopted this approach for an important reason, as the single-minded dedication it required was meant to bring forth the best from his top students, preserving yoga’s spiritual depth and enabling them to pass on its transformative potency. Yet this approach also had a downside in that it failed to make the full scope of his teachings accessible to a multitude of seekers unable to join his circle of intimates.

Swami Kripalu’s Yoga of Success and Self-Realization presents Swami Kripalu’s teachings in a contemporary framework that any reader can understand and put into practice. John Mundahl calls it “a clear, engaging writing style infused with stories.” Supplementing the narrative are extensive quotations, excerpts, and teaching stories that remain as close as possible to Swami Kripalu’s words. Every effort has been made to retain his distinctive voice and subtlety of expression.

In Indian languages from Sanskrit to Marathi, yoga has an enormous range of meanings, though most often it refers to philosophy or methods to control the mind and body. This book argues for a wider understanding, demonstrating that yoga has long expressed political thought and practice. The political idea of yoga names the tools of kings, poets, warriors, and revolutionaries. It encodes stratagems for going into battle and for the demands of governance. This idea suggests routes to self-rule even when faced with implacable obstacles, and it defines righteous action amid the grime and grief of politics and war.

Sunila S. Kalé and Christian Lee Novetzke chart a new genealogy of yoga, beginning with uses of the term in the Ṛg Veda, the Mahābhārata, the Bhagavad Gītā, and the Arthaśāstra. In the world of these texts, yoga names everything from war and battle strategy to good governance, espionage, taxation, and welfare. Kalé and Novetzke follow this trail into the modern period, examining the writings and speeches of thinkers such as Gandhi, Tilak, Aurobindo, and Ambedkar as well as the extraordinary story of the Princely State of Aundh, whose ruler saw the Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation) as a tool for sovereignty. Offering a novel interpretation of yoga that embraces its long-standing political conceptualization, this book sheds light on South Asian political thought and history from its earliest texts to the present day.

Identifica las seis hormonas que más influyen en tu estado de ánimo y aprende a controlarlas de una manera natural. 

Nuestras hormonas influyen en casi todos los aspectos de nuestra vida, incluido nuestro cuerpo, emociones o creatividad. Aunque existen cientos de sustancias responsables de nuestro estado de ánimo, solo hay seis —la dopamina, la oxitocina, la serotonina, el cortisol, las endorfinas y la testosterona — cuya producción podemos llegar a controlar con técnicas sencillas, provocan, además, efectos inmediatos. 

Si te cuesta motivarte o disfrutar de las pequeñas cosas de la vida, equilibra tu dopamina. Si no conectas con las personas de tu entorno, aumenta las reservas de oxitocina. Si quieres estabilizar tu estado de ánimo y bajar de esa montaña rusa emocional en la que vives, céntrate en la serotonina, la hormona de la felicidad. 

Con este libro aprenderás a aprovechar estas seis sustancias clave que tu cuerpo produce y a regular tu propia química, para gestionar mejor tus emociones y transformar tu vida de manera duradera. 

«Un manual muy práctico para influir directamente sobre tu estado de felicidad, gracias a tu propia biología.» Thomas Erikson, autor de Rodeados de idiotas.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Amy Shah, MD, leading medical doctor and Instagram personality @fastingmd, shares her proven 5-step program for battling excessive hunger and food cravings by harnessing the power of psychobiotics and intermittent fasting.

“My mission is to revolutionize the way we think about hunger and nutrition, and to help people manage hunger and cravings and break free from the tyranny of diets and battles with food. I’ve seen my program work for people all over the world. And it will work for you, too.” —from the introduction by Dr. Amy Shah

Dr. Amy Shah kept hearing the same complaints from her patients: “I feel hungry all the time, even when I just ate.” “My cravings are out of control.” They were white-knuckling it through yet another diet plan, only to feel depleted, frustrated, and really effing hungry.

So she created I’m So Effing Hungry, a science-based plan designed to help you take charge of your health and your cravings, without feeling deprived. As Dr. Shah explains, cravings aren’t your fault—and eating a healthier diet isn’t just a matter of self-discipline or willpower. There are powerful biological forces at play in your body that govern your hunger levels and cravings.

Drawing on the emerging science of psychobiotics—healthy gut bacteria that help improve mood and regulate hunger, weight, and cravings—Dr. Shah has created a 5-step plan to help you make peace with food and your body:

STEP 1. REPLENISH: your body by eating more nourishing, mood-balancing foods.

STEP 2. REWIRE: your brain to undo the addiction pathways and cravings for processed foods.

STEP 3. RESET: your circadian rhythm to activate hunger hormones that reduce your appetite.

STEP 4. REFRESH: with a good night’s sleep, using proven good sleep habits used by the U.S. military.

STEP 5. RETRAIN: your body with exercise that regulates key neurotransmitters that influence our hunger response

Complete with more than thirty delicious recipes and peppered with easy Hunger Hacks and Cravings Crushers—like eating walnuts to reduce hunger and getting direct sunlight first thing in the morning— Comer sin culpa (I’m So Effing Hungry) is a complete guide to help you reframe decades-old dieting patterns and stop fighting the scale.

El libro que te ayudará a mejorar tu salud, sueño, rendimiento físico y gestión emocional solo con… respirar.

Al tratarse de un mecanismo automático, todos pensamos que respiramos correctamente. Sin embargo, la mayoría de veces no lo hacemos bien. Tendemos, por ejemplo, a hiperventilar, lo que provoca estrés y tensión; o a respirar de forma anatómicamente incorrecta, lo que provoca dolores posturales.

Desde hace miles de años, numerosas técnicas han tratado empíricamente de reeducar y optimizar nuestra respiración con excelentes resultados. Pero pocas veces se ha abordado la práctica de la respiración con un conocimiento científico de su funcionamiento. Éste ha sido el objetivo de Yvan Cam, especialista en metabolismo, en este libro, donde aboca todo su conocimiento sobre la respiración con resultados espectaculares, tanto para deportistas de alto nivel como para personas que buscan mejorar su bienestar.

Este sorprendente libro nos demuestra que respirar bien es tan importante como comer bien, ya que una buena respiración tiene una repercusión directa en nuestros niveles de energía, nuestras hormonas, nuestra postura e incluso la microbiota. Reaprendiendo a respirar (unos minutos a la semana es todo lo que necesitarás), podrás gestionar mejor tu estrés y tus emociones, reforzar tu inmunidad, mejorar tu rendimiento, tu sueño e incluso aliviar ciertos trastornos musculoesqueléticos.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The book that will help you improve your health, sleep, physical performance and emotional management just with... breathe.

As it is an automatic mechanism, we all think that we breathe correctly. However, most of the time we don't do it well. We tend, for example, to hyperventilate, which causes stress and tension; or to breathe anatomically incorrectly, which causes postural pain.

For thousands of years, numerous techniques have empirically tried to re-educate and optimize our breathing with excellent results. But rarely has the practice of breathing been approached with a scientific knowledge of how it works. This has been the objective of Yvan Cam, a specialist in metabolism, in this book, where he directs all his knowledge about breathing with spectacular results, both for high-level athletes and for people who seek to improve their well-being.

This amazing book shows us that breathing well is just as important as eating well, as good breathing has a direct impact on our energy levels, hormones, posture, and even microbiota. By relearning how to breathe (a few minutes a week is all you'll need), you'll be able to better manage your stress and emotions, boost your immunity, improve your performance, your sleep, and even alleviate certain musculoskeletal disorders.

A cancer diagnosis can be life changing for anyone, bringing new physical and emotional realities, changed relationships, and often frustration when dealing with healthcare systems. But living north of sixty means dealing with a higher level of healthcare inequity. Agnes Pascal compiles firsthand narratives from Northern and Indigenous cancer survivors and caregivers that illuminate the unique challenges of healthcare accessibility in the North.

In this rare volume, more than thirty voices offer compassionate advice and insightful analysis born from experience. With courage and dignity, they discuss fear, grief, and death; the logistics of medical travel for treatment; Indigenous and Western medicine; structural determinants of health, including industrial pollution and environmental racism; and the impacts of residential schools and “Indian hospitals” on northern communities. In these pages people share that hope comes from building healing communities.

This book is for people with cancer and their caregivers; health policy makers and advocates; scholars and practitioners of healthcare, Indigenous governance, or environmental racism; and anyone interested grassroots, community-based peer support.

Gayle DeLong was a well-known activist in the autism community, the ‘Warrior Mom’ of two autistic daughters. She worked closely with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on vaccine injury issues. This book is a record (based largely on her diaries) of her happy marriage to Jonathan Rose, from their first date in 1994 to her untimely death from breast cancer in January 2022.

Love in the Age of Autism does not sugarcoat the stresses and heartbreak of raising autistic children: it is more honest about that than most other books on the subject. But it is also an inspiring love story, which can help autism parents find profound joys in spite of all the pains. It offers practical advice and models for sharing the burdens and pleasures of life, based on a strong sense of family values. Many autism moms give up their careers to care for their children, but Gayle was a determined professional woman, and her arrangements with Jonathan allowed her to continue working.

She also refused to give up one of her favourite sports – sex. This book frankly (and with an earthy sense of humour) illustrates how autism parents can continue to enjoy passionate, monogamous physical love – and it also explains how to provide sex education for autistic girls (who can easily be taken advantage of). In this book, the girl dies in the end, as she often does in love stories, but the tale is intensely romantic and life-affirming.

El Dr. Josh Axe, autor del bestseller Todo está en tu digestión, nos explica cómo tratar más de setenta enfermedades, perder peso y aumentar la vitalidad con prácticas curativas naturales que se han ido transmitiendo a través de los tiempos.

Mucho antes de que las primeras empresas farmacéuticas abrieran sus puertas en la década de 1850, los médicos trataban a las personas, no los síntomas. Y aunque nos hemos acostumbrado a tomar las medicinas, sus peligrosos efectos secundarios nos incitan a buscar desesperadamente una alternativa.

Pero hay una buena noticia: la alternativa ha estado aquí todo el tiempo en forma de tratamientos ancestrales, utilizados durante eones en la medicina tradicional china, ayurvédica y griega. Remedios ancestrales es la primera guía completa para todos los públicos que reúne y detalla lo mejor de estas prácticas probadas por el tiempo.

En esta obra, el Dr. Axe explora los conceptos fundamentales de la curación ancestral: comer bien (y lo que realmente significa esto) y vivir en sincronía con el reloj circadiano, y nos muestra cómo los médicos tradicionales identificaban la causa raíz de la enfermedad de cada paciente y la trataban con hierbas medicinales, setas, CBD, aceites esenciales y prácticas restauradoras de cuerpo y mente.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Bestselling author Dr. Josh Axe explains how to treat more than seventy diseases, lose weight, and increase vitality with traditional healing practices passed down through the ages.

Long before the first pharmaceutical companies opened their doors in the 1850s, doctors treated people, not symptoms. And although we've become used to popping pills, Americans have finally had it with the dangerous side effects, addiction and over-prescribing—and they're desperate for an alternative.

Here's the good news: That alternative has been here all along in the form of ancient treatments used for eons in traditional Chinese, Ayurvedic and Greek medicine. Ancient Remedies is the first comprehensive layman's guide that will bring together and explain to the masses the very best of these time-tested practices.

In Ancient Remedies, Dr. Axe explores the foundational concepts of ancient healing—eating right for your type and living in sync with your circadian clock. Readers will learn how traditional practitioners identified the root cause of each patient's illness, then treated it with medicinal herbs, mushrooms, CBD, essential oils, and restorative mind-body practices. What's more, they'll discover how they can use these ancient treatments themselves to cope with dozens of diseases, from ADHD to diabetes, hypothyroidism, autoimmune disease, and beyond.

Through engaging language and accessible explanations, Ancient Remedies teaches readers everything they need to know about getting, and staying, healthy—without toxic, costly synthetic drugs.

Lucía, mi pediatra vuelve a sorprendernos con un libro que derriba todos los mitos sobre la salud física y mental de niños y familias

«Aunque a priori te puedas sentir abrumado o abrumada por el exceso de información, te puedo asegurar que siempre es mejor saber que no saber, que el conocimiento no es solo poder, sino que es control y es calma. Y esto, en la maternidad y paternidad, vale oro. Ahora mismo afortunadamente contamos con muchos medios y recursos para no tener que creer a pies juntillas lo que nos dice el curandero, nuestras abuelas, vecinas o suegras, aunque estas lo hagan desde la mejor de sus intenciones.»

Desde cuestiones tan fundamentales como las infecciones, la alimentación y el neurodesarrollo a temas tan importantes como el sueño, la salud mental o el bullying. Desde las vacunas y los accidentes infantiles a los neuromitos que llevamos años escuchando. Desde las falsedades más disparatadas leídas en redes sociales, medios o escuchadas en el parque a los dardos envenenados que a madres y padres nos han lanzado a lo largo de este viaje.

La doctora Lucía Galán vuelca en esta obra toda la experiencia de más de veinte años de profesión para derribar los mitos con los que ella misma se ha topado como pediatra, como madre y como mujer. Con la evidencia científica como premisa, esta es una obra práctica, tan llena de consejos médicos como de emoción, sensibilidad y empatía al más puro estilo Lucía, mi pediatra. Cargado de experiencias personales que nos tocan el corazón.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Lucía, my pediatrician, surprises us again with a book that debunks all the myths about the physical and mental health of children and families

"Although a priori you may feel overwhelmed by the excess of information, I can assure you that it is always better to know than not to know, that knowledge is not only power, but it is control and calm. And this, in motherhood and fatherhood, is worth gold. Right now, fortunately, we have many means and resources so that we do not have to believe at face value what the healer, our grandmothers, neighbors or mothers-in-law tell us, even if they do it from the best of their intentions."

From issues as fundamental as infections,diet and European development to issues as important as sleep,mental health or bullying. From vaccines and childhood accidents to the neuromyths that we have been hearing for years. From the craziest hoaxes read on social networks, the media or heard in the park to the poisoned darts that mothers and fathers have been thrown at us along this journey.

Dr. Lucía Galán pours into this work all the experience of more than twenty years in the profession to demolish the myths that she herself has come across as a pediatrician, as a mother and as a woman. With scientific evidence as a premise, this is a practical work, as full of medical advice as it is of emotion, sensitivity and empathy in the purest Lucía, my pediatrician style. Loaded with personal experiences that touch our hearts.

As seen on the Today Show, Dynamic Aging isn’t that same old "senior fitness," "senior stretching," "senior strength" book you’ve seen again and again. This book is about using simple exercises to feel better and get back to living vitally no matter your age.

"Don't blame your age if you're feeling creaky. It could just be the way you're using (or not using) your body." ―Washington Post on Dynamic Aging as a "Book for the Ages"

Movement is a powerful tool and changing how you move can change how you feel, no matter your age. Dynamic Aging is an exercise guide geared to an over 50 audience that includes:

• 30+ illustrated exercises
• Moves for pain-free feet and strong hips
• better balance and getting over the fear of falling
• how to improve sitting, standing, and walking posture
• go from stiff shoulders to arms that can reach, carry, and lift
• how to stay fit to drive
• tips for moving more in daily life

Alongside Bowman's exercise and alignment instructions are stories and advice of four women over seventy-five who began this program over a decade ago. Along the way they found recommended surgeries unnecessary, regained strength and mobility, and ended up moving more than they did when they were 10 years younger.

From hiking in the mountains to climbing ladders and walking on cobblestones with ease, each of these women embodies the book's message: No matter where you're starting, if you change how you move, you can change how you feel.

Bestselling Move Your DNA has shaken up the health and fitness world with this message: there is more to movement than exercise.

"A landmark in explaining biomechanics." Dr. Joan Vernikos, Former Director of NASA’s life science division and author of Sitting Kills, Moving Heals

It’s often said that "movement is medicine," but rarely is the how behind the power of movement explained. It’s not only our whole body that’s moving; our cells are being moved as our limbs push and pull to locomote us around, and each movement moves our cells uniquely.

Some of the "big ideas" in this paradigm-shifting book include:

• The human body evolved to a tremendous amount of certain movements―like walking, squatting, hanging, and carrying―loads our bodies still require to work well, even though they’re mostly gone from our "convenience-centric" culture.
• Many of the ailments we face today relate to how little we move and how stiff our bodies are when we do move. Body issues are often more accurately symptoms of "movement malnutrition."
• Why a physical therapist or personal trainer is coaching you in alignment or "good form": we’re adapting most to our daily positioning!
• It’s not only "move more," it’s "move more of your body parts!" (All bodies, couch potatoes to high-level athletes have areas that can be nourished with better movement.)
• We’re using exercise like "movement vitamins" instead of addressing the deeper issue of a poor movement diet. We should be using both!

Move Your DNA also contains:

• 40+ corrective exercises to help you find your "sticky spots"―areas of your body that just aren’t moving (even when the rest of you moves a lot)
• alignment checks and a guide to increasing your walking movements
• simple lifestyle changes to get you moving more (without always needing to add exercise!).

Keen laypeople, yoga and pilates teachers, fitness enthusiasts, personal trainers, physical therapists, and athletes can all use this humorous, passionate, and science-based guide to finally getting the movement every body requires.

Our abdominal muscles are rarely "broken"; rather, their weakness is a reflection of how little we use our entire body. Whether you have diastasis recti, a hernia, are postnatal, or simply have a very weak midsection—this is the definitive "whole-body" guide to restoring your core!

Abdominal muscles have many important jobs; twisting the spine safely, accommodating pregnancy, protecting your abdominal organs, and even breathing are just some of the jobs we want them to do well. Many will try to fix their middle through crunches and other abdominal exercises without realizing that things like tight shoulder muscles, poor posture habits, and even our breathing patterns can affect what’s going on in our abs.

In Diastasis Recti, biomechanist Katy Bowman:

• Gives 30+ exercises, organized into Small, Medium, and Big Moves
• Expands the core to include essential parts, like the shoulders and pelvis (and how movement patterns here can worsen abdominal separations)
• Explains why it’s better to think of a diastasis (abdominal hernias, or even weakness) as a symptom rather than as the "problem"
• Teaches 5 simple postural adjustments to change the forces on the front of the abdomen
• Notes that in addition to exercises, you can sit, stand, and walk for a stronger core

"By making the material understandable, approachable, and achievable, Bowman offers an outstanding and necessary guide to diastasis recti and many other abdomen-related issues. Everyone can benefit from these insights and improve their health in an empowered and proactive way." —Foreword Reviews

Diastasis Recti is for anybody wanting to improve both the function and the appearance of their abdomen!

A nutritious ‘movement diet’ is essential to our well-being. This book contains all the ingredients we need. –Mark Hyman, MD, New York Times #1 Bestselling Author of Young Forever, The Pegan Diet, and The Blood Sugar Solution

This book is elegant and immediately actionable. You cannot help but be changed simply by reading it. –Kelly Starrett, DPT, New York Times bestselling author of Becoming a Supple Leopard, Deskbound, and Built to Move

Winner of the INDIE Gold Book Award for 2023 (Health category)

We make hundreds of movement choices all day long, whether we know it or not: Walk or drive? Sit or stand? Hip to the right or to the left? Heels or flats? So how can we make the choices that leave us feeling and moving—even thinking—our best? It starts with the ways in which our body is positioned throughout the day, whether working, exercising, or resting.

Rethink Your Position is your guide to everyday anatomy and alignment—part by part.

Daily aches and pains can feel unavoidable, but we can start feeling better by moving better.
And moving better starts with our individual body parts, and the relationship between and among those parts and the forces or loads they experience.

Professionals, experienced exercisers, and new-to-movement newbies alike will discover the big and little ways our body parts move. Rethink Your Position explains how to check the way different areas are moving now, includes precision exercises to get important parts moving better, and shows how to support better health by making small changes —not only at the gym, but at the office, in the kitchen, on a walk with friends….even while you’re sleeping.

With her trademark clarity and humor, biomechanist, movement teacher, and bestselling author Katy Bowman provides simple, engaging instructions that will have you rethinking your position by reshaping what you’re already doing. Learn how to:

• Avoid a tech neck by adjusting your head while looking at your phone
• Set up your computer space to open tight shoulders
• Switch up the way you walk for happier feet and knees
• Care for your hips and psoas muscles by sitting differently
• Adjust your pelvic tilt for a stronger pelvic floor and glutes
• Wake up feeling refreshed by changing your sleep shape
• Find even better form in your regular yoga, Pilates, or fitness workout
• Care for your brain (and mind) with simple movements—like chewing!

Transform how you think about movement. Then watch your whole life change!

Create a personalized movement plan you love.

You’ve heard of the million benefits of movement, but you can’t make it work in your body or your own life.

• Maybe you move a lot at work, and your body is too tired to do the activities you used to enjoy.
• Maybe you’re an athlete with nagging injuries keeping you off your game.
• Maybe you want to move more but you don’t have the time—or can’t because moving hurts.

The best way to approach movement is to think of it like food—we need certain amounts of all different kinds for our bodies to be healthy. My Perfect Movement Plan helps you figure out exactly which types of movement you’re already getting, what you might be missing, and where to fit it into your daily life.

This workbook is all about discovering the “movement diet” your body needs. Not any body, but your body, specifically. Complete dozens of self-assessment questions and worksheets to develop a plan--your perfect plan--for nourishing your body with movement in a way that’s sustainable, meaningful, adaptable, and even restful.

Get back to your most joyful activities, uncover new ones—and start savoring the movement in every moment.

Human beings have always moved for what they need until recently. We know how a lack of movement impacts our bodies but how does culture-wide sedentarism impact the world?

Movement Matters is an award-winning collection of essays in which biomechanist Katy Bowman continues her groundbreaking presentation on the interconnectedness of nature, human movement, and the environment.

Winner: Foreword Indies Book Award (Gold)

Here Bowman widens her there is more to movement than exercise message presented in Move Your DNA and invites us to consider this idea: human movement is a part of the ecosystem.

Movement Matters explores how we make ourselves, our communities, and our planet healthier all at the same time by moving our bodies more–as well as:

• How did we become so sedentary? (Hint: Convenience often saves us movement, not time.)
• the missing movement nutrients in our food
• how to include more nature in education
• why ecosystem models need to include human movement
• the human need for Vitamin Community and group movement

Unapologetically direct, often hilarious, and always compassionate, Movement Matters demonstrates that human movement is powerful and important, and that living a movement-filled life is perhaps the most joyful and efficient way to transform your body, community, and world. A must read for exercise teachers, environmentalists, and those wanting simple, accessible ways to take action for a better world.

Many work hard on good posture and better walking and running alignment, but it’s critical to understand how what you put on your feet each day can play a bigger role in the function of your feet, ankles, knees, hips, and spine than you might realize.

By applying the principles in this book, you will be able to restore your foundation and prevent dysfunction. ―Ray McClanahan, DPM, inventor of Correct Toes

Biomechanist and author of Simple Steps to Foot Pain Relief, Katy Bowman offers walkers, runners, and health professionals alike clear, accessible lessons on how the shape of shoes can play a role in painful feet, knees, and hips―and what to do about it.

When we have painful feet and weak ankles it seems like stiff, supportive shoes are the answer, but this solution can be temporary, especially if our issues stem from foot and leg weakness. In short, humans come with great foot technology, we just need to learn how to use it.

Minimal footwear―shoes that protect your feet while still letting them move freely―is gaining traction (get it?). Being barefoot is a natural human movement, but research shows simply kicking off our shoe-shackles and releasing our feet into the wild can result in injury. Whole Body Barefoot will help you safely and effectively transition to minimal footwear, reaping the enormous benefits of freeing your feet without injuring yourself along the way.

Whole Body Barefoot presents:

• 25 exercises to create strong, supple, feel-better feet
• The mechanics of bunions and pronation
• How to strengthen weak ankles and arches
• How to figure out your true shoe-size
• The importance of walking on natural surfaces―Vitamin Texture!

With clear, science-based explanations, Bowman lays out the ways in which conventional shoes and artificial environments leave us with sedentary feet as well as the steps necessary to restore lost foot function, and improve health…naturally!

A heart-centered, science-based guide to caring for your reproductive health

Tia’s path would lead her to becoming a doctor of physical therapy specializing in pelvic health. In her practice, Dr. Ukpe-Wallace sees everyday evidence of the disconnection between women in their bodies. That disconnection has a variety of sources—trauma, embarrassment, miseducation—and results both in a lack of understanding and awareness and a reluctance to physically connect with their own bodies.

Tending to Your Womb is the book that Tia wishes she had when she started her own journey towards conception, pregnancy and loss. Through self-care exercises, science-based information, and her own personal experiences and those of her patients, she helps women better understand and reconnect with their own bodies. The heart of the book is walking women through the journey from conception through pregnancy, with the full spectrum of outcomes considered.

Also covered:

• Menstruation
• Grief
• Perimenopause and menopause
• Post-partum self-care
• Herbs for womb health

Tia’s holistic approach draws on traditional knowledge (“to tend to our womb is not new”), and honors the relationships between the reproductive system and the rest of the body: for example, our feet, posture, breasts, heart, and brain. She encourages women to get personal with their anatomy, become curious observers of their own bodies, and become their own best advocate in a medical maternity care system that is not stacked in favor of women, and even less so for women of color.

Tending to Your Womb is a trustworthy guide to improving your relationship with your most intimate parts.

Aprende qué es la flexibilidad metabólica y quema grasa de manera eficiente en sólo 6 semanas.

Bajar de peso no se trata de quemar calorías, va mucho más allá: se trata de cambiar tu metabolismo. Tu cuerpo es capaz de escoger de manera eficiente la fuente de energía que usa para funcionar —si usa proteínas, azúcares o grasas cuando no hay calorías disponibles—, a esta capacidad se le llama flexibilidad metabólica o met flex. Hasta el momento se ha hablado muy poco de ella y de sus grandes beneficios a la salud: desvanece los signos de agotamiento, ayuda a quemar grasa de manera sorprendente y disminuye la ansiedad.

El doctor Ian K. Smith, autor bestseller y presidente del Consejo de Fitness, Deportes y Nutrición de Estados Unidos durante el gobierno de Barack Obama, ofrece un plan único para aprovechar esta asombrosa capacidad del cuerpo. En tan solo seis semanas podrás experimentar resultados sorprendentes en la quema de grasa siguiendo pautas sencillas, como:

• Ingerir el primer alimento del día tres horas después de despertar.
• Realizar una sesión de cardio en ayunas dentro de las dos primeras horas luego de despertar.
• Dormir al menos siete horas por noche.
• Terminar la cena dos horas antes de ir a dormir.

Esta completa guía incluye tips, un plan de alimentación, recetas y ejercicios que te ayudarán a alcanzar tus objetivos de pérdida de peso y, sobre todo, mejorarán tu salud y aumentarán tu bienestar.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A powerful six-week plan to burn fat more efficiently by improving metabolic flexibility.

The human body has the amazing ability to switch which fuels it uses for energy based on what is available at the time—researchers call this metabolic flexibility. Bodies that can make this switch can burn sugars, proteins, and other food nutrients when available, and then switch to burning the body’s fat storage or fatty acids when food calories are not available. It turns out that losing weight is not just about burning calories, it’s also about switching between these pathways as efficiently as possible.

The Met Flex Diet offers a one-of-a-kind plan to improve metabolic flexibility through changing the types and quantities of food/beverages consumed, as well as the type of exercise. Timing is also a factor—timing of meals and timing of exercise relative to when the meals are consumed. All of these variables will play an important role in helping the body make the important switch from one fuel source to another.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Learn how to reboot your metabolism, build strength, and extend your life with this accessible new guidebook.

After years of watching patients cycle through her practice, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon noticed a pattern. While her patients struggled with a wide range of conditions, they all suffered from the same core problem: they had too little muscle rather than too much fat. As the body’s largest endocrine organ, muscle determines everything about the trajectory of health and aging. Many of the conditions Dr. Lyon’s patients were experiencing were symptoms of underdeveloped or unhealthy muscle.

Now, Dr. Lyon offers an easy-to-follow food, fitness, and self-care program anchored in evidence and pioneering research that teaches you how to optimize muscle—no matter your age or health background. Discover how to overcome everything from obesity to autoimmune disorders andavoid diseases like Alzheimer’s, hypertension, and diabetes by following Dr. Lyon’s powerful new approach to becoming forever strong.

Un libro para iniciarse en el entrenamiento de fuerza, clave para la longevidad y la salud mental. Acompañado de un plan de alimentación para ganar músculo de forma consciente y saludable.

«Si tienes este libro entre las manos, es porque te interesa verte bien, pero no solamente verte bien por fuera, sino dar un paso más allá y que este proceso de verte bien en el espejo sea un reflejo de todo lo que llevas tiempo cultivando por dentro. ¡Bienvenida/o a Cultiva tu fuerza un libro que pretendo que sea una guía para todos aquellos y aquellas que, como yo, nos hemos dado cuenta que el tener un buen tono muscular va más allá de lucirse en bikini o que se nos marque la «tableta de chocolate». Nunca me interesó tener un cuerpo musculoso, y menos si eso requería tener una práctica y rutina de ejercicio físico. Nunca he sido habilidosa en ningún deporte, más bien un poco patosa en todo lo que me iniciaba, y la verdad sea dicha, floja».

La pérdida de masa muscular es común con el envejecimiento y factores como lesiones, cáncer, bajos niveles de testosterona y hormona de crecimiento, alto estrés y diabetes. Esto puede llevar a un declive en la salud física y cognitiva. ¿La buena noticia? Gran parte de esta pérdida de masa muscular puede desacelerarse o incluso revertirse en adultos jóvenes y de mediana edad con cambios en el estilo de vida.

Por qué es importante la musculación:

• Gana fuerza: Mejora la salud ósea y articular.
• Mejora los niveles de glucosa en sangre: Acelera el metabolismo.
• Salud cardiovascular: Previene y alivia dolores posturales.
• Sistema inmunológico más fuerte: Mejora la salud mental y la autoestima.
• Longevidad: Aumenta la esperanza de vida.

La filosofía de Carla se centra en la salud más que en la estética y en este libro nos ayuda a descubrir los beneficios de la musculación a nivel fisiológico, mental y emocional.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A Book to Start Strength Training, Key for Longevity and Mental Health. Accompanied by a Meal Plan to Gain Muscle Consciously and Healthily.

"If you have this book in your hands, it's because you're interested in looking good, but not just on the outside. You want to take it a step further and make sure that looking good in the mirror reflects everything you've been cultivating inside. Welcome to Cultivate Your Strength, a book I intend to be a guide for everyone who, like me, has realized that having good muscle tone goes beyond looking good in a bikini or having a six-pack. I was never interested in having a muscular body, especially if it required a strict exercise routine. I've never been skilled at any sport, rather clumsy in everything I tried, and to be honest, lazy."

Muscle loss is common with aging and factors like injuries, cancer, low testosterone and growth hormone levels, high stress, and diabetes. This can lead to a decline in physical and cognitive health. The good news? Much of this muscle loss can be slowed or even reversed in young and middle-aged adults with lifestyle changes.

Why Strength Training is Important:

• Gain Strength: Improves bone and joint health.
• Better Blood Sugar Levels: Speeds up metabolism.
• Cardiovascular Health: Prevents and relieves postural pain.
• Stronger Immune System: Enhances mental health and self-esteem.
• Longevity: Increases life expectancy.

UN LIBRO PARA ENTENDER LA BIOLOGÍA FEMENINA.

Menopausia, dismenorrea, síndrome del ovario poliquístico, hiperestrogenismo, síndrome premenstrual… El equilibrio hormonal femenino es complejo y experimenta cambios significativos a lo largo de la vida de una mujer. No es de extrañar, por tanto, que prácticamente todas las dolencias femeninas se resuelven mediante anticonceptivos, analgésicos o antidepresivos. Pero ¿son posibles otras alternativas?

En estas páginas, la doctora Miriam Al Adib nos invita a explorar el importante papel que juegan las hormonas en nuestra salud. Con un enfoque claro y accesible, nos ofrece una explicación detallada acerca de cómo funcionan en nuestro cuerpo, cómo afectan a nuestras emociones, aportando también estrategias efectivas para manejar los desequilibrios y mejorar nuestro bienestar. 

Un libro lleno de información rigurosa pero fácil de entender, que incide en la raíz de los síntomas, en el origen del malestar de las mujeres, desterrando mitos y tabúes, o aquello de «a las mujeres no hay quien las entienda».

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

In these pages, Dr. Miriam Al Adib invites us to explore the important role hormones play in our health. With a clear and accessible approach, she offers a detailed explanation of how they work in our bodies, how they affect our emotions, and provides effective strategies to manage imbalances and improve our well-being.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Detox and Reset Your Body and Mind in Just 5 Days

From the author of the bestseller Ayuno intermitente saludable.

Our body is the vehicle that allows us to grow, develop, experience, and evolve. While it functions holistically and in perfect coordination, sometimes we need to focus on the health of specific organs that play a crucial role in our well-being. Carla Zaplana, expert nutritionist and dietitian, presents a practical program centered on the liver, an organ involved in over five hundred vital functions. The goal is to decongest the liver, enabling better processing and elimination of toxins from our body.

In this book, we will explore the impact of toxins on our physical and emotional state and discover all the benefits of liver detoxification for health. It’s not just about weight loss and reducing fluid retention; it also helps combat fatty liver, reduces overall inflammation, improves digestion, provides restorative sleep, and enhances mental clarity. Additionally, Carla guides us step-by-step so that, by dedicating just 5 days a year, we can achieve a complete reset of our body.

"Love your body not for how it looks, but for everything it is capable of doing."

Stop Eating Yourself Sick. Take Control Of Your Health.

The United States will not be able to afford metabolic syndrome, a combination of disorders including obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, elevated cholesterol and fatty liver—all of this is caused by poor eating habits. This could be a potentially fatal epidemic if not controlled, and most importantly, it can significantly impact the health of your children. If present trends continue, an American has a 57 percent chance of being obese at the age of thirty-five.

So, what’s the solution?

Joseph S. Galati, MD, has decades of experience researching and studying the effects of poor eating habits. After witnessing so many patients with metabolic syndrome, he wrote Eating Yourself Sick: How to Stop Obesity, Fatty Liver, and Diabetes from Killing You and Your Kids to raise awareness of the health issue that’s sweeping across the United States. In this book, you’ll learn:

• The symptoms and challenges of metabolic syndrome
• How family structure is critical to your physical well-being
• Different diets and food choices that can prevent and treat diseases
• The importance of exercise in the face of metabolic syndrome

Now is a time to take charge of your well-being, whether you’re maintaining good health, or striving to achieve it. Dr. Galati seeks to give you the knowledge you need to defeat metabolic syndrome, and live a happy, healthy life.

Cómo influyen las emociones, los pensamientos y la mente en tu alimentación.

La nutrióloga Mónica Hefferan explica cómo las emociones, los pensamientos y el amor propio son factores clave para hacer las paces con tu cuerpo.

Este no es un libro de dietas, más bien es uno en el que encontrarás la voz honesta y empática de la autora, quien ha encarnado la batalla de muchas mujeres con su imagen y su peso corporal. Una voz que se vulnera y que, tras superar un trastorno alimentario, comparte cómo le fue posible vivir con mayor autenticidad y plenitud.

Al igual que ella, vivirás un proceso de introspección y desarrollo personal. Te detendrás a preguntarte «¿Qué es lo que suelo pensar de mí misma?» y «¿Cómo me relaciono conmigo?». Con ello descubrirás que la forma en que sientes y te hablas está directamente relacionada con la manera en que te alimentas y metabolizas lo que comes. Del mismo modo, aprenderás que desde el autocuidado y el crecimiento espiritual es posible reconciliarte no solo con la comida, sino también —y principalmente— contigo misma, lo que cambiará por completo los resultados que anhelas para sentirte mejor con tu imagen.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

How Emotions, Thoughts, and the Mind Influence Your Eating Habits.

Nutritionist Mónica Hefferan explains how emotions, thoughts, and self-love are key factors in making peace with your body.

This is not a diet book; rather, it is one in which you will find the honest and empathetic voice of the author, who has embodied the struggle of many women with their body image and weight. It is a voice that reveals vulnerability and, after overcoming an eating disorder, shares how it became possible to live with greater authenticity and fulfillment.

Like her, you will go through a process of introspection and personal development. You will stop to ask yourself, "What do I usually think about myself?" and "How do I relate to myself?" Through this, you will discover that the way you feel and talk to yourself is directly related to how you eat and metabolize what you consume. Similarly, you will learn that through self-care and spiritual growth, it is possible to reconcile not only with food but also — and primarily — with yourself, which will completely change the results you desire to feel better about your image.

Descubre El poder de sanar, bajo la mirada implacable de la enfermedad y la muerte.

Hay un famoso dicho que reza: “Nadie se muere a la víspera”. Pero el Doctor Bayter, quien trabajó durante 20 años como médico intensivista en una Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos, está seguro de que no es así. Él cree con firmeza que la enfermedad y la muerte se construyen a partir de las decisiones que tomamos día a día, en especial a partir de los alimentos que llevamos a la boca, por dar placer a la lengua, pero que acaban con la capacidad autosanadora del cuerpo.

Las malas decisiones, que han llevado a que la humanidad crea que los carbohidratos deben ser la base principal de una “dieta saludable”, es lo que ha generado una explosión de personas con resistencia a la insulina, obesidad, hipertensión y diabetes, que resultan en infartos cerebrales y del miocardio, así como cada vez más pacientes con cáncer, enfermedad renal y hepática, entre muchos otros mortales diagnósticos.

Por eso en este libro hace un recorrido por todo el cuerpo humano y las patologías que se pueden generar, a menos de que nos empoderemos de nuestra salud, nos convirtamos en nuestros propios médicos y descubramos El poder de sanar, bajo la mirada implacable de la enfermedad y la muerte.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Discover The Power to Heal, under the relentless gaze of illness and death.

There is a famous saying that goes, "No one dies on the eve." But Dr. Bayter, who worked for 20 years as an intensivist in an Intensive Care Unit, is sure that this is not the case. He firmly believes that illness and death are built on the decisions we make every day, especially the foods we put in our mouths to please our taste buds, but which ultimately destroy the body's self-healing capacity. Poor decisions, which have led humanity to believe that carbohydrates should be the main base of a "healthy diet," have resulted in an explosion of people with insulin resistance, obesity, hypertension, and diabetes, leading to strokes and heart attacks, as well as an increasing number of patients with cancer, kidney disease, and liver disease, among many other deadly diagnoses. 

That is why in this book, he takes a journey through the human body and the pathologies that can develop unless we empower ourselves with our health, become our own doctors, and discover The Power to Heal, under the relentless gaze of illness and death.

HERRAMIENTAS Y CONSEJOS PARA ABORDAR LA ENFERMEDAD.

La demencia, más allá de una simple pérdida de memoria asociada a la vejez, representa un complejo conjunto de trastornos que afecta a la vida de quienes la padecen y supone un camino repleto de dudas y obstáculos para familiares y amigos. Este libro proporciona una completa mirada sobre los diferentes tipos de demencias, más allá del conocido alzhéimer, y revela cómo afectan y se manifiestan en cada persona.

Natalí Pintos, psicóloga experta en estas enfermedades degenerativas, ofrece estrategias concretas para que los cuidadores lidien con la demencia desde la compasión y la comprensión, y no desde una posición de hostilidad, con el objetivo de que conozcan los síntomas, acepten la «pérdida» de la persona y reconozcan y expresen su dolor.

A través de historias reales y consejos prácticos, estas páginas presentan una novedosa perspectiva que anima a los cuidadores a buscar apoyo y a cuidar de sí mismos mientras asisten a sus seres queridos.

Una mano amiga en forma de manual que brinda las herramientas necesarias para enfrentar la enfermedad con dignidad, amor y un entendimiento más profundo de sus desafíos y recompensas.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

TOOLS AND ADVICE FOR ADDRESSING THE DISEASE

Dementia, beyond a simple memory loss associated with old age, represents a complex set of disorders that affects the lives of those who suffer from it and presents a path full of doubts and obstacles for family and friends. This book provides a comprehensive look at the different types of dementia, beyond the well-known Alzheimer's, and reveals how they affect and manifest in each person.

Natalí Pintos, a psychologist expert in these degenerative diseases, offers concrete strategies for caregivers to deal with dementia with compassion and understanding, rather than from a position of hostility, with the goal of recognizing symptoms, accepting the "loss" of the person, and acknowledging and expressing their grief.

Through real stories and practical advice, these pages present a novel perspective that encourages caregivers to seek support and take care of themselves while assisting their loved ones.

A helping hand in the form of a manual that provides the necessary tools to face the disease with dignity, love, and a deeper understanding of its challenges and rewards.

SEE MORE CLEARLY NATURALLY IN A WEEK

Like most people with poor vision, you probably believe your condition is hopeless and there’s nothing you can do except rely on stronger glasses every few years as your eyesight gets worse, followed by a disease such as cataracts or macular degeneration. 

Fortunately, there’s a better way. 

An elite group of eye care professionals known as behavioral optometrists have developed dozens of effective vision therapy eye exercises. These enhance the performance of the entire visual system, resulting in healthier, more relaxed eyes, naturally better eyesight, and a more satisfying lifestyle.

THE POWER VISION PROGRAM FOR BETTER EYESIGHT gives you the best of these exercises to restore vision, youthful appearance and more beautiful eyes.

Read this book and experience the following benefits:

• Increase Natural Focusing Power and Enjoy Freedom From Glasses and Contacts
• Experience Relaxed Vision With Less Eye Strain and Sensitivity to Bright Light and Screens
• Improve Dry Eyes, Myopia, Presbyopia, and Other Common Eye Ailments

If you’ve resigned yourself to a lifetime of inferior vision, there’s a new day dawning. A new freedom you never thought possible. A clearer, brighter future is only a few short weeks away!

CLINICALLY TESTED EYE EXERCISES

THE POWER VISION PROGRAM FOR BETTER EYESIGHT provides you with sixteen clinically tested eye exercises, divided into three modules. 

The first module — the Power Exercises — forms the dynamic core of the program and will give your entire visual system a good basic tune-up, like tuning up an engine. You will feel positive changes taking place in your eyes within a few days and will see the first signs of improvement in a week or so.

The second module — the Booster Exercises — is a set of stress-reduction techniques that will make your eyes feel wonderfully invigorated and relaxed. 

The third module — the Fusion Exercises — builds on the results obtained from the Power Exercises and will increase the range and flexibility of your focusing system. 

Spend at least 10 minutes a day doing as many of the exercises as possible. The more you do, the more improvement you’ll get and the sooner you’ll get it.

How are behavioral scientists increasingly involved to advise global decision-makers in the United Nations and elsewhere?

In 2020, the Psychology Coalition at the United Nations (PCUN) launched a bold new series of books, describing how evidence- based behavioral research is increasingly used by United Nations and other decision-makers, to address global issues. These issues reflect the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for 2030—such as health, poverty, education, peace, gender equality, and climate change.

This PCUN volume brings together 34 experts in 14 concise chapters, to focus on diverse issues in mental, spiritual, and social health (detailed below). The chapters are co-authored by leading global experts as well as 'rising star' students from many nations--offering readers a concise overview of each topic, a glossary of key terms, study questions, and bibliography. This volume is suitable as a textbook for diverse courses in psychology, social work, cross-cultural and international studies.

Drawing from many disciplinary areas, this edited volume explores how the Coronavirus pandemic has disproportionately harmed vulnerable and marginalized people in the U.S. Chapters address harm to people of color that exacerbated structural racism and harm to low-wage workers that highlighted existing inequalities. In addition, the volume provides strategies that have been successful in mitigating these harms and recommendations for a post- pandemic more peaceful and just future.

What do teachers, principals, school administrators, superintendents, state policy makers, and parents need to know about the growing trend to use technology in physical activity environments? How can technology be used to increase not only fitness levels but academic learning in today’s youth? How can kids benefit from increased use of technology in physical education? These questions and others are answered in this volume of the series Educational Policy in the 21st Century: Opportunities, Challenges, and Solutions.

An entire generation is growing up without the benefits of daily physical activity. The daily experiences of our children are centered on the use of technology driven, mostly sedentary, activities. Technology should be considered a viable tool that can increase physical activity levels when implemented effectively. The lack of contemporary programs and strategies that motivate participants to want to participate daily in physical activity has created a culture of inactivity and obesity and is having a profound effect on the physical health and academic learning potential of today’s youth.

In this volume the authors suggest current trends and explore the enormous potential of technology in motivating youth to commit to daily physical activity. Authors detail contemporary programs, teaching strategies and contemporary technologies beginning to be used in schools across the country, and suggest policies, directions, and cost considerations for implementing technology based learning in physical activity and physical education settings.

The purpose of the present book, An Intersectional Approach to Counseling Children and Adolescents with Health Conditions, is to provide mental health professionals and students of counseling, medicine, psychology, social work, and other helping professions, with useful information and helpful suggestions for their work with children and adolescents who experience significant health issues. The chapter authors rely on an intersectional understanding of the human experience and specifically focus on how diverse youth experience, understand, and seek support for specific health conditions and illnesses.

Considering contemporary research that has shed light on some of the ways individuals’ multiple social identities interconnect and interact to compound experiences of illness, health psychology researchers would benefit from applying an intersectional lens in their explorations of the micro and macro-level variables that influence pathways towards health and illness for different groups. For mental health practitioners, an intersectional perspective on diverse children and adolescents’ experiences of specific health conditions will more likely lead to innovative and inclusive interventions that target change at multiple levels.

We are confident that our book will be of great use to mental health practitioners and students who plan to or are currently working with children and adolescents with significant health issues. Readers of the book can focus on a specific health condition that is common among children/adolescents and develop their knowledge, skills, and awareness of the cultural and systemic considerations in working with children/adolescents and their families. Particular attention can be paid to the ways in which the clients’ and the counselors’ intersectional social identities may influence counseling children and adolescents with significant health issues.
