Dean is in the hospital again this weekend...still dealing with his high fevers. He is getting IV antibiotics. Possibly they have found the cause of the fevers this time. Hopefully he will come home tomorrow.
Because of this, I have had lots of time to sit with him and read. I have another great book to recommend to you. It is by Ruth Heidrich, PhD. She is one of the experts mentioned in "Born to Run" by Christopher McDougall, a book I have mentioned previously. The only book of hers available from my library is "Senior Fitness, The Diet and Exercise Program for Maximum Health and Longevity". Don't let the title with the word "Senior" in it throw you off. This book is for everyone who wants to live long enough to become a senior.
She discusses nutrition, exercise, and their effects on the various diseases of affluence. It is also extremely inspiring. Ms. Heidrich is an ultra-athlete as well as cancer survivor. Her PhD is in health management, so she is capable of interpreting the results of the research she cites. Her personal story is as valuable to the reader as her recommendations. Please consider it.
Books can be dangerous. The best ones should be labeled "This could change your life."

Update: I am 2 months into this health journey. I feel great on the vegan diet recommended by Dr. Joel Fuhrman in "Eat to Live." I wish I would have tried it years ago, but will follow it from now on out.
