A very comprehensive audio CD about how he human body functions and how to protect your health and slow down aging

I am no medical expert. However, I have been reading and researching about the human body, health and diseases for many years to educate myself on the topic. This audio CD titled You the Owner's Manual by Dr. Mehmet C. Oz and Dr Michael F. Roizen is one of the best sources, like their later book that I had read titled : You Staying Young.

Anybody interested in protecting his / her health or that of the loved ones and anybody who wants to learn about the human body would greatly benefit from listening to this CD carefully from time to time. High school students who need to learn about the human body as part of their science / biology courses would also find the CD quite useful. Latest top quality information about the subject comes from two top medical authorities : Dr. Mehmet C. Oz and Dr. Michael F. Roizen. It covers all the relevant parts of the body by first clearly explaining how that part of the body functions, how it interacts with the rest of the body, the most common related diseases, their reasons, how they affect aging and how to minimize the risk of getting those diseases in the form of action plans. They emphasize that even though inherited unfavorable genetic factors may have a negative effect on health the inheritor is not doomed : he / she can overcome the bad genetic factors by adopting the right lifestyle explained in this CD.

Of course the doctors warn that each person should consult his / her physician before applying the advice to his / her particular situation. For example to do or not to do hormone replacement therapy is something to be decided on an individual basis between the person and his / her doctor. In the CD the doctors describe most possible alternatives. Another example is should you take aspirin as a protective measure from heart stroke and cancer also depends on your particular circumstances that must be decided by consulting your physician.

The CD is enjoyable to listen to and easy to understand particularly because the doctors talk briefly switching turns. Thus the listener is not obliged to listen to the same voice throughout the CD. A single voice can be tiring and boring to listen to sometimes in other CD's even when the speaker is a very good speaker.

You don't need to be ill to benefit from the advice in the CD, you may just want to maintain your present good health throughout your life . Although I was already healthy when I read the book You the Owner's Manual two years ago before I lsitened to the CD recently, I have been applying the various advice since then, I realized what I as doing wrong, made the necessary corrections and benefitted from them. Now, having also listened to the audiobook in CD form I found some other things I need to correct in my attitude to protect my health and slow down aging ( I am a 50 year old man ) and will certainly apply them as well. For example I need to protect my ears from the loud music at the fitness saloon where I regularly work out.

In conclusion, if you are interested in the human body and in protecting your health this is one of the best sources you would be able to find. Obviously, you would need to apply the advice given, consulting your physician first if necessary

Anatomy and physiology for dummies

In short, just a very fun and informative book with several worthy goals. For one, it educates your average person in the inner workings of the human body. It does this quite entertainingly through frequent quizzes, trivia, facts, and interesting pictures- for instance the authors use a lot of elf cartoon. Corny, but fun.

Additionally, the book also gives one many helpful tips on how to keep their body running smoother. Since there is a lot of medical information, I really would like to have seen a reference section though at the end of the book. That being said, however, it is a pretty informative and amusing read and should enhance the well-being of many- especially middle-agers like me who want to learn more about how their bodies work so they can keep it running smoothly in the years to come.

I learned so much by reading this book!

I love this book. I have read most of it cover to cover, and I have about 3 chapters left and I feel like already I am making smarter diet and fitness decisions. It has motivated me in that I think about what I put into my body and what I do to excercise....I cannot wait to start the YOU on a Diet book.....I bought it and am going to read it next. I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys learning and wants to improve their quality of life by simply learning what your body needs to operate at its best.

YOU have the power.

This, to me, is the best book of the You series by Drs. Roizen and Oz. I have read and re-read this book, underlined, turned down the pages and have taken notes from this so very informative book. The You books have had a major impact upon my health - you should see me now!
