THE WHOLE HEALTH LIFE BOOK
“After making The Connection people kept asking me about my story. To try and answer many of those questions I wrote The Whole Health Life. ”
SYNOPSIS:
Being healthy in this crazy, busy, modern world is not easy.
For journalist Shannon Harvey, finding a solution to this problem became personal when she was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that had no known cause and no known cure. After being told by her doctor that she could end up in a wheelchair, she realised she had to take action.
This inspired a ten-year journey, where she spent more than $30,000 on conventional and alternative treatments, searched through thousands of scientific papers, and traveled the world to interview dozens of pioneering health researchers from leading institutions such as Harvard and Stanford. On her road to getting better she met people with remarkable stories of recovery, discovered the truth amidst conflicting medical advice and sorted the quacks from the experts. She has now compiled the latest evidence and her personal experiences into one book to help you find the answers to good health.
Discover why:
Meditation can turn off genes affecting disease.
Sitting is considered the new smoking.
One simple change to your diet can add years to your life.
