This book was created to help you deal with a variety of medical problems, reduce or eliminate your dependence upon pharmaceutical drugs, and maintain optimum health. Life Guide explores alternatives--alternatives to the contemporary emphasis on drugs as "magic bullets" for curing diseases. It is about taking responsibility for your own well-being by examining the habits, diets and addictions that have become so common in Western society. It is about encouraging your physician to apprecite you as a whole person as opposed to a particular illness.
