Honest Medicine: Shattering the Myths about Aging and Health Care $6.8 Did you know that we have no good evidence indicating that low-salt diets prevent heart attacks and strokes in seniors? That the tight control of blood sugar prevents the complications associated with diabetes? Or that calcium supplements alone prevent fractures in the elderly? Did you know that the risks associated with cholesterol are much lower than most people think? Or that the treatment for mild to moderate hypertension may be worse than the hypertension itself? Did you know that much of medicine is guided by what is statistically significant (what the numbers say about numbers) but not necessarily clinically significant (what the numbers say about people)? Or that despite the fact that the risks and rewards of medicine vary greatly with age, relatively little headline-making research includes seniors? Did you know that most seniors who feel healthy needn't bother with an annual checkup? By the end of the decade one in five Americans will be sixty-five or older. The parents of the postwar generation are already senior citizens, and the baby boomers themselves are advancing into middle age. Senior maturity is becoming fashionable, but our lingering obsession with youth has deprived us of even the basic information we need to balance the benefits and burdens of everyday health care during what should be the fullest, richest time of life. Donald Murphy, one of the U.S.'s premier geriatricians, has written Honest Medicine to fill this urgent and ever-growing demand. The history of medicine is full of both wonder and folly, so Dr. Murphy begins by helping you develop a more critical eye and a healthy skepticism about the things you read and hear. He sets the record straight on someof the most popular myths, mistakes, and misconceptions about medicine for seniors. Armed with a clearer perspective on the medical industry and your own health care, you're ready to move on to a detailed - and often surprising - discussion of preventive medicine. Next, Dr. Murphy dis |

The Complete Guide to Nutrition in Primary Care $59.95 The aim of this book is to assist PAs and all primary care clinicians as they incorporate nutrition into routine patient care. The book will cover nutrition assessment and therapy for the most common medical conditions seen in the primary care setting. With the epidemic of obesity and its associated consequences, including heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, and cancer, clinicians need to be able to assess and counsel patients about their diet and lifestyles on a daily basis. Despite this need, however, nutrition education has been lacking in medical schools and residency programs. The result- most PAs (all primary care practioners) who treat patients every day are inadequately trained in nutrition, and lack the information their patients want and need. Studies also document that patients want their practioners to advise them about nutrition therapy, vitamin and mineral use, information on popular weight loss diets, and natural weight loss supplements. The Complete Guide to Nutrition in Primary Care will provide the necessary tools to accomplish this training, allowing primary care practitioners to provide up-to-date, practical information to their patients. An accompanying website will support the book with downloadable tools and patient education materials. |
