"Well worth reading"

DR. ISADORE ROSENFELD'S BREAKTHROUGH HEALTH 2004 is a tremendous guide book that provides easy to follow insight on a variety of health topics (apparently 167 areas, but actually more as the author spins related subject into the text) Each section is sub-divided into a comment on what helps, what is new, and the bottom line.

This reviewer did not read the entire book as many of the 167 subjects have no interest to me or my family. Instead I selected specific items of personal concern either amidst myself, my spouse, son, or parental sibling history that I also know enough about to be dangerous. The write ups on high blood pressure, weight loss, high cholesterol, Alzheimer's, stroke, and heart conditions, etc. were enlightening and, most important, it is easy to understand what Dr. Rosenfeld is saying. Some of the information is surprising like a comparative analysis of two high risk groups using Dr. Atkins' diet vs. an American heart Association diet, though the long term effect remains unknown but the author adds his spin of be smart and use the best from both or the benefits of almonds. This is a terrific self help guide that already contains rabbit ears and situated on the front of my keeper shelf at least until perhaps Dr. Rosenfeld provides the 2005 update.
