Your GPS for Health: Reverse Chronic Disease by Tackling Root Causes

Over the past century, chronic diseases have reached epidemic proportions. Along with conditions such as autoimmune and mental disorders, autism has increased nearly fivefold in just twenty-two years, and, if current trends continue, nearly half the population in developed countries will develop cancer at some point during their lifetime by 2040. >Nothing could be further from the truth. Grounded in fifteen years of rigorous scientific research yet written in clear, accessible language, this book uncovers the factors behind the dramatic rise in chronic disease over the past eight decades. More importantly, it demonstrates that these so-called chronic conditions can be reversed by addressing their root causes and provides practical, evidence-based strategies to restore health. To reverse chronic disease, the greatest hurdle to overcome is the "a pill for an ill" mentality - searching for a simple remedy for a single condition. A disorder may appear to exist in isolation, but it is often a manifestation of overall health and is rarely caused by a single trigger. To restore health, we must treat the roots, not the individual leaves. This is not a philosophical theory or abstract concept; it is the most effective strategy proven in clinical practice. This book is dedicated to those who: - are passionate about improving public health and want to cut through the smokescreens to understand the true drivers of today's health crisis. After all, no disease can be prevented or reversed unless we understand its root causes.- are facing serious health challenges and want to restore their health rather than rely on prescription drugs to get by.- believe prevention is better than treatment and want to protect their health before disease takes hold. >To our most valuable asset, health - knowledge is power.
