A Book on Lifestyle Medicine is a book about improving health, reducing chronic illnesses, reducing medical expenses, and living well with longevity by adopting simple lifestyle measures. Contemporary medicine is focused on doing tests, prescribing medications, conducting procedures, and providing treatments for disorders. It would be far better to prevent them from happening in the first place.
This book will explain in simple, ordinary language how your lifestyle and behaviors can enhance your well-being. Healthy diet, regular exercise, avoiding risky substances, restful sleep, reducing stress, cognitive activities, and useful measures. Our efforts should be on avoiding illnesses instead of treating diseases.
