Empowering Your Health: Do You Want to Get Well?

My husband and I have been following the health suggestions in this book, and have been following closely Dr. Asa's Anti-Inflammatory diet. We are experiencing much less pain in our arthritic joints, and have lost some weight. We are noticing a need for less sleep, more energy, and a general overall better feeling of health. Dr. Asa has a way of explaining various issues that are easy for the layperson to understand.

I have suffered from hot flashes for years. The many doctors that I have seen have had me on everything from Xanax to seizure medicine at 3200mg a day. I personally asked for bio identical hormones and they did not do for me what the doctors said. Between the advice in Dr. Andrew's book and a few lifestyle changes. I suffer only a few minor flashes a day and none at night. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to take control of their own health and quit relying on doctors who tell you it's just your age..,.best money I ever spent. Will be getting them for all my friends for gifts...

I have read or gone through at least 500 health books written in the last 5 years. This is simply one of the best and clearly written ones I have come across. I'd never heard of Asa before and I saw this book in the library, so I checked it out. I was just expecting the same rehash of health information that's generally out there with probably an emphasis on something or other that would distinguish this book and the author. Boy, was I surprised. After years of reading about health and applying what I thought useful to my own diet and routine, I finished this book knowing at least 30% more than I had known. In other words, I changed 30% of what I was doing. And it was easy. Rarely has a book made such a difference to my routine. Most of what he suggests makes total sense to me and and is explained quite clearly. I found out he has a radio show available on itunes and have been listening ever since. Asa is a gifted writer and speaker. I can't recommend this book enough, and I can't wait for his next one.

If you are truely wanting to turn your health around, then you get this book now. He explains how the body works from the ground up and how different parts of the body affects other parts. The book is an easy read, and will help you get the whole picture concept quickly. This is a great gift for College students,as it will get them to a healthy start before life hits them.

It is only six words - "Do you want to get well?" but the power in those words pervades the entire book. Written in a clear and easy to understand format, Dr. Asa moves you through the steps to health. It is practical, but not just a surface 'get well quick' kind of a book. Methodical health steps guide you through a transformational process. Bringing to light some of the good things that common sense would tell us (but which we tend to ignore) and backed up by helpful scientific and medical learning, the book opens up a clear path to empowering your health. The passion that Asa Andrew has to see people get well and live healthy lives is evident throughout the book. The writer is not just one who has written a book on the theory of wellness (there are enough of those) but is a daily practitioner and coach to those he sees in his wellness center. He devotes three hours each week to callers on his powerful talk show (check his web site for details - www.asaandrew.com)and gives freely of his knowledge in answering an incredible variety of health related questions. "Do YOU want to get well?" This book resonates with the question and provides a transformational answer. Be well!!
