The Complete Canadian Health Guide: Revised Edition |
| First published in 1993, The Complete Canadian Health Guide became a national bestseller. This new edition brings Canadians up-to-date with treatments, current research and information, including thoroughly updated sections on diet and exercise, and many other health lifestyle issues. Gathering the expertise of over 1,000 medical experts from across the nation, well-known medical writer June Engel has teamed up with University of Toronto's Michael Evans, a practicing physician who brings his own clinic-based experience to the book's contents for this edition. |
The Complete Canadian Health Guide translates complicated medical data and terminology into straightforward language. With its information supplemented by charts, practical tips, tables, and illustrations, this book is accessible and reassuring. Designed to help readers sort out medical facts from fiction, it clearly and concisely covers today's health issues. As people live longer, the book examines such issues as heart disease, arthritis, and depression. The book also assesses the value and pitfalls of self-diagnosis using the Internet. New drug therapies are also explained with respect to diet, quitting smoking, cholesterol reduction, and cardiac health. Families will appreciate the no-nonsense approach to evaluating children's health issues such as vaccinations and treatments for common and serious conditions. |
