PRESCRIPTION FOR LIFE is a very well written book on
healthcare, which I
must say, has sent me on a diet after reading it. Quite a
few great tips in eating healthy, tips that may help so
many people live a longer life, stronger lives without
medication. The author cautions strongly against the use
of
supplemental herbs that are not approved by FDA.
Acheiving
an ideal weight, exercise should become part of a person's
lives and eating the right foods to maintain a healthy
life. Longevity is the key!
The human heart is talked about in depth, and how
important
it is to diet and exercise. PRESCRIPTION FOR LIFE is a
very easy read and a straight-
forward approach to staying healthy. Many of the author's
patients lost a great deal of weight on the Prescription
for Life Plan, which seems like a miracle!
PRESCRIPTION FOR LIFE by Richard Furman, MD, FACS drew me
in from page one as Dr. Furman is an author one does not
want to miss, especially for a healthier life. Dr. Furman
has been a vascular surgeon for more then thirty years. He
is a very caring physician who wrote this book for all
of us to aid in the prevention of heart disease.
During his more than thirty years as a vascular surgeon, Richard Furman literally held clogged arteries and diseased hearts in his hands and wondered why the person lying on the table hadn't been more careful. Heart disease is the number one killer of men and women in America, and in most cases it is completely preventable. So why are we slowly destroying our bodies and killing ourselves? And what can we do to turn it around? The good news is, simple, sustainable lifestyle changes can mean the difference between health and infirmity, between life and death. Putting his three decades of experience and education to work, Dr. Furman gives readers the strategies they need to live not just longer, but younger. This essential resource to health helps readers -achieve and maintain their ideal weight -reduce their risk for life-threatening diseases -make exercise a natural part of their lives -learn what foods to eat and what foods to avoid It even shows how following the plan can not only eliminate heart disease, but also keep people safe from various cancers, dementia, diabetes, stroke, erectile dysfunction, and other age- and obesity-related problems. Dr. Furman wants readers to realize that poor health during one's "golden years" is not inevitable. It can and should be avoided at all cost. And with his expert advice, readers can live long, healthy, vibrant lives, enjoying time with friends and family instead of wasting it in doctors' offices and hospitals.
