The Beast Within Destroyer of Souls or Eight Treasures

The Beast Within! Destroyer of Souls!

Author: David a Leary

GOD WILL CURE ADDICTION!

David Leary grew up in the dry, desert heat of Phoenix, Arizona. Without a father at home, his mother tried to keep him on the straight and narrow, teaching him about God's love and salvation. But, she lost the battle for David's soul to the devil. Cocaine, methamphetamines, marijuana, alcohol-David used them all.

The Beast Within! Destroyer of Souls! is the tragic account of David's torturous path of addiction that started in his mother's loving home, wound in and out of drug treatment programs and ended in a six-year prison term under the Arizona Department of Corrections.

After David lost his mother to a horrifying death, he finally took her words to heart and gave himself over to God. A shockingly graphic story of addiction, crime and despair, this book is also a tale of survival and redemption.

Combating Sleep Disorders or Body Sense Natural Diet

Combating Sleep Disorders

Author: Kathy Sexton Radek

Approximately 70 million people in the United States are affected by a sleep problem. About 40 million Americans suffer from chronic sleep disorders, and an additional 20-30 million are affected by intermittent sleep-related problems. However, an overwhelming majority of sleep disorders remain undiagnosed and untreated. Some of the most common ones are insomnia, restless legs syndrome, parasomnias, circadian rhythm disorders, excessive daytime sleepiness, night terrors, sleep apnea, periodic limb movement disorder, and narcolepsy. Long standing sleep disturbances can lead to non-productive lifestyles, poor work performance, weight gain, difficulty with concentration, and social avoidance. Some disorders, like sleep apnea, can lead to even more serious problems such as high blood pressure, heart attack, and stroke. Therefore, there is an urgent need for this introduction to the subject of sleep disorders. Chapters include information on symptoms and problems that signal a possible sleep disorder, descriptions of sleep loss effects and their demographics, definitions of common sleep disorders, explanations of various medical and psychological tests for sleep disorder diagnosis, essential medical treatments, guided intervention to change thinking about sleep and related health habits, alternative interventions, follow-up and maintenance issues, and behavioral changes. Appendices include a list of accredited sleep laboratories and resources, suggested readings, and suggested exercises and activities.

Should I Be Tested for Cancer or La receta del gran medico para bajar de peso

Should I Be Tested for Cancer?: Maybe Not and Here's Why

Author: H Gilbert Welch

Getting tested to detect cancer early is one of the best ways to stay healthy--or is it? In this lively, carefully researched book, a nationally recognized expert on early cancer detection challenges one of medicine's most widely accepted beliefs: that the best defense against cancer is to always try to catch it early. Read this book and you will think twice about common cancer screening tests such as total body scans, mammograms, and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) tests.
Combining patient stories and solid data on common cancers, Dr. H. Gilbert Welch makes the case that testing healthy people for cancer is really a double-edged sword: while these tests may help, they often have surprisingly little effect and are sometimes even harmful. Bringing together a body of little-known medical research in an engaging and accessible style, he discusses in detail the pitfalls of screening tests, showing how they can miss some cancers, how they can lead to invasive, unnecessary treatments, and how they can distract doctors from other important issues. Welch's conclusions are powerful, counterintuitive, and disturbing: the early detection of cancer does not always save lives, it can be hard to know who really has early cancer, and there are some cancers better left undiscovered.
Should I Be Tested for Cancer? is the only book to clearly and simply lay out the pros and cons of cancer testing for the general public. It is indispensable reading for the millions of Americans who repeatedly face screening tests and who want to make better-informed decisions about their own health care.

Hot Times or Suenos Divinos

Hot Times: How to Eat Well, Live Healthy, and Feel Sexy During the Change

Author: Ann Louise Gittleman

Gittleman shows menopausal women how to create their own forms of hormone replacement therapy, using natural methods to restore the body's mineral balance and make menopause a more comfortable experience.

Library Journal

In this new and revised edition of her Super Nutrition for Menopause (1998), Gittleman, a former Pritikin Longevity Center staff nutritionist, argues that years of poor lifestyle habits cause menopausal symptoms and may also lead to other health problems. To treat those symptoms and health problems, she advocates changes in diet and lifestyle; provides advice on specific minerals, vitamins, foods, and supplements; and discusses the role of exercise in treating not only menopausal symptoms like sleeplessness and hot flashes but also osteoporosis, breast cancer, diabetes, and hypertension. The book's second half furnishes 50 all-new menus and recipes for a diet rich in unprocessed, unrefined natural food, leafy vegetables, fresh fruits, whole grains, lean meats, and natural and unprocessed oils. Recommended for comprehensive health and nutrition collections.-Jodith Janes, Cleveland Clinic Fdn. Lib. Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.

Great Legs or Positive Options for Children with Asthma

Great Legs!: Every Girl's Guide to Healthy, Sexy, Strong Legs

Author: Jane Merrill

"You can be as old as the hills," Jane Merrill's mother advised her at a young age, "and still show a little leg." Mom knew best. After all, she'd modeled for Vogue and other fashion magazines and considered good leg care a great investment. Jane took note-actually lots of them as she grew up and saw what great legs can do for any woman-until she had an encyclopedic file on how to get great legs and keep them at any age.

Now Merrill's Great Legs! shares that wealth of leg care and fitness knowledge. The book covers everything from traditional and home treatments to once-proprietary spa secrets and high-tech leg care techniques. The author delivers this gold mine of "limb-formation" in a fun and easy-to-grasp style, as one girlfriend passing on beauty tips to another. A healthy combination of quotations, photographs, fun facts, and hip shopping tips makes Great Legs! a must-read for all women.

Great Legs! includes home methods of hair removal, self-tanning and blemish-disguising tips, leg-pampering recipes, leg and feet exercises, dos and don'ts of cosmetic surgeries, and much more. Merrill taps a team of exercise and medical professionals, such as the chief of surgery at Tufts/New England Medical Center, to back up her information. This book struts!
