Self-Help Health
Do you know what’s really good for you?
In
this age of countless miracle cures, it’s vital to separate
the myths that endanger your health from the medical facts
you need.
FACT: Unfiltered coffee can clog your
arteries.
FACT: Donating blood may lower your
risk of heart disease.
FACT: You don’t really
need eight glasses of water a day.
FACT: Coughing
won’t help if you’re having a heart attack. (But aspirin
will!)
We’ve become a nation of cyberchondriacs,
diagnosing ourselves with false information and half-truths
found on sketchy websites. In Medical Myths That Can Kill
You, Dr. Nancy Snyderman, chief medical editor for NBC
News, provides clear, practical, scientifically proven
advice that can lead you to a healthier, happier
life.
Discover the simple, everyday things that
affect well-being, and get the information you need to
revitalize your body, maintain your longevity, manage your
care, and possibly even save a life–yours.
