Living Well : Taking Care Of Yourself In The Middle And Later Years, 4th Edition Paperback / softback
by Dr James Fries
Paperback / softback
Description
Advances in medical care allow us to live longer, but to enjoy life we need to stay healthy.
Completely revised and updated, Living Well presents a thorough but manageable program for keeping in good mental and physical shape as we grow older.
In Part I, Dr. James Fries includes the most up-to-date medical information about how many diseases associated with aging-such as osteoarthritis, diabetes, and atherosclerosis-can be avoided or put off with the latest medication and alternative treatment options.
Part II addresses many other challenges that people in their middle and later years face-from planning for retirement, to keeping your mind active, to maintaining a healthy sex life, to writing a will.
Finally, Part III provides easy-to-use decision charts- on everything from hip pain to incontinence to diet and exercise-that quickly help determine whether professional intervention is necessary or whether home treatment will suffice.
Comprehensive and accessible, Living Well is the essential reference for promoting a long, happy, and healthy life.
