People all over America enjoy some of the best dental care in the world. We enjoy the expertise of 201,927 actively practicing dentists in the US.

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. "

Help in clearing the fog of Glioblastoma and High-Grade Glioma

A diagnosis of any type of cancer is frightening, and the journey through diagnosis and treatment is complex and often confusing. A Glioblastoma diagnosis can be particularly challenging, as the brain is the “control center” for our bodies. This workbook, a guide for managing your care, is a companion to the book to help you track, manage, understand, and communicate the information that is important for you to progress through your medical care. The pages in the guide walk you step-by-step through the care journey, providing an easy way for you to list and organize your doctor and test appointments, treatment schedules, and dates of surgery and procedures. There is also a list of possible side effects for you to track and date, if they occur. One of the disheartening side effects of learning that you have cancer is the feeling that your life is spinning out of control and that the cancer is in charge. This guide can give you back some of that control.

Foreword by Jay Conrad Levinson, The Father Of Guerilla Marketing, 21 million copies sold worldwide
• Have you lost the passion, the drive and the fire you once had for your business?
• Are you tired of riding the financial roller coaster, where sometimes your appointment book is overflowing with a waiting list and sometimes it’s empty as a desert?
• Are you hitting the “glass ceiling” of success that virtually every salon or spa owner hits - where income peaks, plateaus, and eventually goes down?
• Is your salon/spa business sucking the life out of you? Physically draining and preventing you from having a normal life, such as family get-togethers, time with your friends, your children’s sports day, dance performances, and so on.
• Are you sick and tired of wasting money on advertising that doesn’t get you new clients?
• Are you looking to expand to a bigger space or add another location but you are afraid to make the move?
• Are you sick of struggling, taking all the risks and putting in “sweat equity” that you’re about ready to throw in the towel and get a “regular job” with regular work schedule and regular pay?
• Do you want to continue running your salon/spa and have a great “lifestyle” with plenty of money to pay your bills, your mortgage, your car loan and to build a nest egg of cash while having the freedom to work less and when you want?

If you answered “YES!” to one or more (maybe all) of these questions, then Lies Salon Owners Believe is the book for you. In this book, Dan Lok and DJ Richoux shatter the seven lies that are holding your business back. Next, they reveal the truth behind why most salon businesses don’t work - and what to do about it. They also share with you strategies and techniques you can utilize to increase your odds of success. Now is the time to take control of your destiny and to take action. Use the strategies in this book to achieve the life you’ve always wanted. Now is the first time that you have a chance to stop hoping for a better life and start creating it.

REVISED AND UPDATED with new medical research, 28 days of meals, and new recipes! 

Heart disease kills more people than any other medical condition. And no one is more aware of this than top cardiologist Dr. Chauncey Crandall, who has performed over 40,000 heart procedures during his career.

In his new book, The Simple Heart Cure, you’ll find this top doc’s groundbreaking approach to preventing and reversing heart disease — an approach honed by his study of foreign cultures free of heart disease and decades of experience helping patients achieve a healthier heart at any age.

Dr. Crandall is living proof of his program’s success. At the age of 48, and with no major risk factors, he found himself in the ER with a “widow-maker” blockage of his main coronary artery. After emergency heart surgery, he recovered from heart disease using the same course of treatment he recommends to his thousands of patients — and details for your benefit — in The Simple Heart Cure.

His unique perspective as both doctor and patient helps him empathize with the difficulties in making a transition from years of bad habits to a heart-healthy way of life. Plus, Dr. Crandall believes in using every weapon in his medical arsenal — conventional medicine, emerging treatments, lifestyle changes, even alternative therapies — to help his patients recover.

Here are just a few of the potentially life-saving gems you’ll discover:

• Proven ways to banish bad cholesterol
• How to slash your risk of a deadly heart attack by 61%
• 8 easy steps to head off that high blood pressure
• How you can safeguard against stroke
• Simple strategies to unclog your arteries without surgery
• What your belly says about your heart health
• Must-have heart tests for everyone over 50
• Easy solutions to steer clear of statin drugs, and much more...

So whether you just want to prevent heart problems, or you’ve already had a heart attack, you’ll find the help you need in The Simple Heart Cure, along with tasty, heart-healthy menus, and a 90-day week-by-week plan to help you start taking action immediately.

There is a biological force within the body that wants you to live to old age. While conventionally this force is known in medicine as the immune system, Dr. Bob calls it: “The Biological Soul.”

The Biological Soul is designed to protect you and allow you to live a healthy life. This force is tangible, measurable, lives within the physical body and determines our age and wellbeing through life. It is physical and complex and, in many ways, spiritual. It is affected by life’s stresses, by diets, and by overall health and though not immortal; it both shapes your life and your life shapes it. 

IMMUNITY STRONG walks readers through how the immune system works, what makes it implode or keeps it safe and what modern science reveals about how it connects to every part of the body to keep it alive—as the seat of our “Biological Soul.” Written in Dr. Bob’s trade-mark down-to earth style, the book explains that the normal immune system functions like a police department protecting the body from harm. While as a nation we have recently been focused on the effects of infections, the book reveals that it is important to note that disorders of immunity are at the root of most diseases that shorten or impact our lives. From chronic pain and fatigue syndromes, heart disease and clogged arteries and even the ability to recognize and destroy cancer, to multiple sclerosis, lupus, celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis and autoimmune disorders are all linked to one or another glitch in the immune system.

The purpose of this book is to provide significant information on the incredible complexity of the immune system and how the integration of spiritual, scientific, and emotional values can enhance health. It is Dr. Bob’s hope that readers will find a new appreciation of the miracle that is the physical body and to understand the potential within our Biological Soul to promote longevity and overall happiness to life.

IMMUNITY STRONG: Boost Your Body's Natural Healing Power and Live to 100 is a must-read for anyone wishing to nurture and enhance their health.

HEALTH SECRETS THAT CAN SAVE YOUR LIFE

Do you find your medical conditions don’t get better and prescription drugs don’t live up to expectations?

No matter how you feel right now, Dr. Blaylock’s Prescriptions for Natural Health will give you the lifeline you need. In this book you will discover the key diet and lifestyle factors you must embrace to achieve peak health and wellness—right now and in the years to come.

Dr. Blaylock reveals:

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.

The Medical Breakthrough of Chelation Therapy: A treatment that uses medicine to remove toxic metals from the body so they don't make you sick.

Chelation has long been approved by the FDA to rid the body of lead by using a synthetic amino acid (ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid), which binds to toxic metals and minerals in the bloodstream, allowing a patient to excrete them. When metals like lead, mercury, iron, and arsenic build up in your body, they can be toxic. 

Alternative medical practitioners have used chelation for nearly 60 years, especially to treat heavy metal contamination that causes or contributes to heart disease. 

• Chelation rids the body of deposits that can lead to atherosclerosis, which causes coronary arteries to narrow, leading to heart attacks. 
• Patients have also found relief through chelation for improving the symptoms of autism. 
• One of the most promising areas of research is in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Because the buildup of metals like copper, iron, and zinc are thought to play a role in Alzheimer's disease, Chelation Therapy might have a place in treating it.

Full of hope-inspiring case histories, expert findings and where to find treatment, The Chelation Revolution: Breakthrough Detox Therapy shows how Chelation Therapy can alleviate suffering in numerous medical conditions and lead to a healthier, happier, and longer life.

Includes a Foreword by Tammy Born Huizenga, D.O., owner of the internationally recognized Born Clinic in Grand Rapids, MI, an internationally respected organization in preventive medicine with a speciality in Chelation Therapy.

"No question it is a frightening diagnosis, but whether you are a patient, family member or caregiver, you can't help feel empowered and optimistic after reading this book. This small guide will leave a big impression." – Dr. Sanjay Gupta, M.D., Bestelling author & CNN Chief Medical Correspondent

From New York Times bestselling author and expert on neuroscience, memory, Alzheimer's Disease and dementia, The Small Guide to Alzheimer's Disease provides a comprehensive overview of Alzheimer's Disease, dementia, and related disorders, along with the latest treatment solutions from conventional and alternative therapies to new scientific discoveries, lifestyle changes and interventions.

Alheimer's Disease and related dementia illnesses are among the most frightening diagnoses in the US, affecting nearly six million adult Americans. This accessible guide starts with providing readers with an overview of Alzheimer's Disease and dementia: what it is, who gets it, how to recognize it, major causes (genetics, environment, etc.). As bestselling author of The Memory Bible and The Memory Prescription, as well as Director of the UCLA Longevity Center, Dr. Gary Small is on the cutting edge of breakthrough treatments, as well as prevention strategies.

 In addition to case studies and patient interviews, all chapters will include side-bars with factoids, lists, and other helpful information.

But what happens when the system breaks down? Leaky gut syndrome (LGS) occurs when the lining of the small intestine is damaged, allowing foreign compounds to escape into your bloodstream, which weakens your immune system and triggers autoimmune reactions.

Leaky gut syndrome (LGS) not only impacts your digestive system, it can also lead to numerous chronic conditions including allergies, arthritis, depression, anxiety, eczema, lupus, multiple sclerosis, Type 1 diabetes, and chronic fatigue. The good news is changing what you eat and drink is one of the best strategies for getting your body back on track. Dr. David Brownstein outlines simple steps you can take to change your diet and get on the path to better health:

• Eliminate “Gut Guzzlers” (the foods and beverages that make you sick)
• Incorporate more “Good Gut” foods, herbs, and nutrients that provide energy
• Food shopping and pantry organization tips
• Seven-day meal plan to help you get started
• Meal prep shortcuts to save time and keep you on track
• Shopping lists and what to keep on hand in your pantry
• Delicious, nutritious, and easy-to-prepare recipes
• Simple, easy-to-follow exercises
• And much more!

HEAL YOUR LEAKY GUT DIET AND MEAL PLAN provides a wealth of practical information to help readers lead a healthier lifestyle to pre-vent and manage leaky gut syndrome. The book includes shopping lists, nutritional information, eating plans and menus, as well as easy-to-follow, delicious recipes and exercises that anyone can follow. Your journey back to health through diet and proper nutrition can happen in just eight weeks!

Most illnesses start in the gut, including many you would not even think of!

If your gut isn’t functioning right, it sets the stage for illness and disease. The gut, the gastrointestinal system, is designed to absorb nutrients that support our bodies and help us make energy, and get rid of things that we don’t need or are toxic. But what happens when the system breaks down? Leaky gut syndrome (LGS) occurs when the lining of the small intestine is damaged, allowing foreign compounds to escape into your bloodstream, which weakens your immune system and triggers autoimmune reactions.

Traditional physicians don’t understand what LGS is, much less how to diagnose and treat it. In fact, it is estimated that more than 80 percent of people with chronic illnesses have leaky gut, an overgrowth of bad bacteria, or not enough good bacteria.

Here are some symptoms that may be caused by LGS:

• Digestive complaints, acid reflux, IBS, Crohn’s disease
• Joint and muscle pain, arthritis
• Obesity and food allergies
• Headaches, depression, anxiety, ADHD
• Itchy skin, rashes, eczema, acne, rosacea, psoriasis

In Heal Your Leaky Gut, Dr. David Brownstein will explain how the gut, like the brain, heart, and liver, needs to be properly nourished in order for it to function correctly. Simply stated, if your gut is not healthy, your immune system is going to suffer.

Improving your gut health and taking fewer drugs will help you feel better and look younger, improve your brain function, and treat myriad medical conditions. This book will give you all the information you need to change what you are now doing so you can have optimal gut health and, as a result, overall health and well-being.

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 Dr. You: Become Your Own Advocate and Take Charge of Your Health, Lora Miro shares a compelling journey from patient to healthcare pioneer, offering readers a roadmap to take control of their own health. Miro, cofounder and CEO of myLAB Box, has transformed the way diagnostic testing is done, empowering individuals across the United States to access healthcare on their own terms.

Drawing from personal experiences, including a life-altering car accident and navigating the complexities of both the Bulgarian and American healthcare systems, Miro reveals how self-advocacy can lead to better outcomes. Through this book, readers will discover practical strategies to challenge the outdated healthcare paradigms and to demand better care for themselves and their loved ones.

Whether you're frustrated with your healthcare, facing a crisis, or simply wanting to live a healthier life, Dr. You is the guide you need to harness your own power and become the hero of your health journey. Miro’s insights are particularly valuable for those who seek to navigate the healthcare system effectively, offering them the tools to advocate fiercely and compassionately for their well-being. Empower yourself. Take charge. Become Dr. You.

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.

A partir de la ciencia emergente de los psicobióticos —bacterias intestinales saludables que ayudan a mejorar el estado de ánimo y a regular el hambre, el peso y los antojos—, la doctora Amy Shah desarrolló un plan de 5 pasos para ayudarte a mejorar tu relación con la comida sin privarte de los alimentos que te gustan:

Con más de treinta recetas deliciosas y trucos fáciles para el hambre y trituradores de antojos (como comer nueces para reducir el hambre y recibir luz solar directa a primera hora de la mañana), Comer sin culpa es una guía completa para ayudarnos a replantear patrones de dieta obsoletas y dejar de luchar contra la báscula.

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.

Most books on backache emphasize medication or surgery as cures. This practical guide suggests a better approach for sufferers. Using self-healing techniques to relieve pain, distinguishing back trouble from other problems, and protecting a weak back during sex or pregnancy are just a few of the topics in this thorough handbook. Over 40 black-and-white illustrations are included.

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. Y lo que es más, descubriremos cómo podemos aprovechar estos tratamientos ancestrales para hacer frente a una gran variedad de enfermedades, desde el TDAH hasta la diabetes, el hipotiroidismo, las enfermedades autoinmunes entre otras.

A través de un lenguaje atractivo y explicaciones accesibles, Remedios ancestrales nos enseña todo lo que necesitamos saber para estar y mantenernos sanos, sin medicamentos sintéticos, tóxicos y costosos.

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.

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.

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.

En esta guía revolucionaria, la Dra. Lyon revela cómo el músculo actúa como el órgano endocrino más grande de nuestro cuerpo, esencial para nuestra longevidad y protección contra enfermedades. Con un completo programa de alimentación, ejercicio y hábitos saludables, este libro te enseñará a reprogramar tu metabolismo, ganar fuerza y aumentar tu vitalidad cuidando de tus músculos fácilmente en tu rutina diaria. No importa tu edad o condición física, aquí encontrarás las claves para transformar tu salud y alcanzar tu máximo potencial.

Prepárate para una transformación total: cuida de tus músculos y descubre el poder de vivir una vida más fuerte, saludable y longeva.

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.

Searching for Health Information reviews the research on the process of seeking health information and contributes to that literature by analyzing the largest available database on health-information-seeking behavior, the Cancer Information Service (CIS), a referral service sponsored by the National Cancer Institute. But the book is not only about CIS. Vicki S. Freimuth, Judith A. Stein, and Thomas J. Kean describe the general context in which people search for health information about a variety of diseases and other health concerns. They then present a theoretical overview of the nature of information and the way people search for it. By analyzing data obtained from more than a million calls to CIS over a four-year period and by studying follow-up surveys of over 7500 of these callers, the authors contribute to our understanding of the process of information seeking.

The communication of health information is increasingly important, and this book breaks new ground in its analysis of one successful system.

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

A BOOK TO UNDERSTAND FEMALE BIOLOGY.

Menopause, dysmenorrhea, polycystic ovary syndrome, hyperestrogenism, premenstrual syndrome... The female hormonal balance is complex and undergoes significant changes throughout a woman's life. It's no wonder, then, that practically all female ailments are treated with contraceptives, painkillers, or antidepressants. But are there other alternatives?

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.

A book full of rigorous yet easy-to-understand information that addresses the root of symptoms, the origin of women's discomfort, dispelling myths and taboos, or the notion that "women are impossible to understand."

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."

Plant-Based Diet Benefits You Should Not Ignore

“If every patient in every doctor's office read this book, it would revolutionize the health of America.” —Neal Barnard, MD, president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine

#1 Bestseller in Agriculture & Food Policy, Vegetables, Special Diet, Vegan & Vegetarian, Healthy Living, Personal Health, and Diets & Weight Loss

A book from the over-one-million-copies-sold author who made popular the connections between diet, physical health, animal cruelty, and environmentalism.

A revolution in food-politics. When John Robbins released an early version of this book in 1987, he took the first steps in the food revolution. His insight into the harm caused by America’s eating habits was a wake-up call for many.

Making conscious food choices. It is obvious to us that what we eat affects our bodies, but what we may not realize is that what we eat also affects our world.

“In your hands is the operating manual for new and old yogis alike. For the past 20 years, McKeown has researched why so many of us breathe so poorly and how we can do it better and improve our lives. He’s spent several more years piecing together this carefully constructed compendium of yoga knowledge and distilling it into step-by-step directions, illustrations, scientific context, biomechanics, biochemistry, and more! My advice: Take a seat, shut your mouth, breathe it in.”—James Nestor

We’ve been taught by the diet industry that the key to weight-loss success is eating less and exercising more. Both research and experience have proven this theory wrong. Yet we continue to count calories, eliminate carbs, track macronutrients, and cut out entire food groups because the only thing scarier than failing at another diet is trusting ourselves enough not to be on one at all.

It’s time to ditch the diet and learn how our bodies actually work. In Metabolism Makeover, registered dietitian nutritionist Megan Hansen strips away the complexity and confusion surrounding dieting and replaces them with a simple framework that will give you the tools to:

•  Learn the science behind the six key pillars of the Metabolic Ecosystem—blood sugar control, muscle, movement, stress management, good sleep, and a healthy gut—and how to adjust each pillar to fit your lifestyle.
• Master the art of long-term weight loss by understanding how to get your subconscious mind on board with change instead of relying on willpower to follow through.
• Use the informed intuitive-eating approach to predict a craving before it starts, manage it once it hits, or prevent it from ever happening in the first place.
• Apply the Next Best Choice framework so you can handle anything that pops up, including the Diet Danger Zones (such as vacations and holidays), without going into “f*ck it” mode.

Your body knows how to lose weight and keep it off—you just haven’t been given the owner’s manual yet. Metabolism Makeover empowers you to regain control of your appetite, mindset, and life.

NOSES ARE FOR BREATHING, MOUTHS ARE FOR EATING

“Many people believe that taking a deep breath increases body oxygenation. The opposite is the case.” — Patrick McKeown, bestselling author of The Oxygen Advantage

Imagine a breathing technique that can increase oxygen uptake and delivery to the cells, improve blood circulation, and unblock the nose. Perhaps it can help open the airways of the lungs, enhance blood flow and oxygen delivery to the brain, improve sleep and bring calmness to the mind. It might even restore bodily functions disturbed by stress, build greater resilience and help you to live longer. You might think this description sounds farfetched. But it isn’t.

The Breathing Cure will guide you through techniques that embody the key to healthy breathing and healthy living. McKeown’s goal is to enable you to take responsibility for your own health, to prevent and significantly reduce a number of common ailments, to help you realize your potential and to offer simple, scientifically-based ways to change your breathing habits. On a day-to-day basis, you will experience an increase in energy and concentration, an enhanced ability to deal with stress and a better quality of life.

Clear your blocked nose, stress and relax your nervous system, improve lung function, prepare for competition and more. For use at home, in professional/amateur sports, by breathing instructors, dentists, doctors, physical therapists, strength and conditioning coaches, Pilates and yoga teachers, and anyone interested in health and fitness – from everyday wellbeing through to sporting excellence.

Breathe Light: experience optimal blood circulation, peak oxygenation, maximal exercise performance, relief from respiratory symptoms and the best sleep you ever had.

Breathe Slow: stress is a risk factor in 75 to 90 percent of all human diseases. Discover and apply the breathing rate scientifically proven to stimulate relaxation, reduce high blood pressure, boost your immune system, maximize HRV and improve blood glucose control.

BREATHE BETTER NOW!

The companion book to Dr. David Brownstein’s Heal Your Leaky Gut: The Hidden Cause of Many Chronic Diseases. 

Award-winning physician Dr. David Brownstein delves further into the mind-gut connection to provide a step-by-step plan to help put his findings into action with HEAL YOUR LEAKY GUT DIET AND MEAL PLAN. The gut—the  gastrointestinal  system—is designed to absorb nutrients that support our bodies and help us make energy, and get rid of things that we don’t need or are toxic. But what happens when the system breaks down? Leaky gut syndrome (LGS) occurs when the lining of the small intestine is damaged, allowing foreign compounds to escape into your bloodstream, which weakens your immune system and triggers autoimmune reactions.

Leaky gut syndrome (LGS) not only impacts your digestive system, it can also lead to numerous chronic conditions including allergies, arthritis, depression, anxiety, eczema, lupus, multiple sclerosis, Type 1 diabetes, and chronic fatigue. The good news is changing what you eat and drink is one of the best strategies for getting your body back on track. Dr. David Brownstein outlines simple steps you can take to change your diet and get on the path to better health:

• Eliminate “Gut Guzzlers” (the foods and beverages that make you sick)
• Incorporate more “Good Gut” foods, herbs, and nutrients that provide energy
• Food shopping and pantry organization tips
• Seven-day meal plan to help you get started
• Meal prep shortcuts to save time and keep you on track

Your journey back to health through diet and proper nutrition can happen in just eight weeks!

Most illnesses start in the gut, including many you would not even think of!

If your gut isn’t functioning right, it sets the stage for illness and disease. The gut, the gastrointestinal system, is designed to absorb nutrients that support our bodies and help us make energy, and get rid of things that we don’t need or are toxic. But what happens when the system breaks down? Leaky gut syndrome (LGS) occurs when the lining of the small intestine is damaged, allowing foreign compounds to escape into your bloodstream, which weakens your immune system and triggers autoimmune reactions.

Traditional physicians don’t understand what LGS is, much less how to diagnose and treat it. In fact, it is estimated that more than 80 percent of people with chronic illnesses have leaky gut, an overgrowth of bad bacteria, or not enough good bacteria.

Here are some symptoms that may be caused by LGS:

• Digestive complaints, acid reflux, IBS, Crohn’s disease
• Joint and muscle pain, arthritis
• Obesity and food allergies
• Headaches, depression, anxiety, ADHD
• Itchy skin, rashes, eczema, acne, rosacea, psoriasis

In Heal Your Leaky Gut, Dr. David Brownstein will explain how the gut, like the brain, heart, and liver, needs to be properly nourished in order for it to function correctly. Simply stated, if your gut is not healthy, your immune system is going to suffer.

Improving your gut health and taking fewer drugs will help you feel better and look younger, improve your brain function, and treat myriad medical conditions. This book will give you all the information you need to change what you are now doing so you can have optimal gut health and, as a result, overall health and well-being.
