About this listen
Nuggets for Healthy Living by Dr Deji Daramola highlights the importance of knowing the little everyday things can cumulatively result in a healthy and hopefully long and happy life. The topics in this audiobook touch on preventative medicine, medicine, psychiatry, surgery, pediatrics, gynecology, human physiology, and psychology; as well as correcting misconceptions about how diagnoses are arrived at especially from the doctor’s perspective. These topics are interwoven into everyday stories with a view to empower you to take control of your health.
In today’s world, with advances in medicine like never before, our aim should be to live a healthy life with little decline in health until we pass on. Our objective should be to age well so we can push the decline to 80 and beyond and subsequently embrace death without the known liabilities that accompany bad aging. This audiobook is intended to guide in that direction.
Aging is not homogenous. Basically, we will all not age the same way. It is also a known fact that different categories of people display different patterns of aging. At about the age of 45, we start to decline slowly health-wise, but some don't and these people continue to age with no issues. This is called successful aging, and successful aging has been defined as optimal physical, mental, and social well-being in older age. There are two models of aging. The mandatory cellular aging that we have no control over and the facultative cellular aging that we can control. The emphasis here is on the facultative cellular aging model. Successful aging tends to depend on one’s behavior, a positive attitude to life and lastly on the environment rather than genetics. Research has concluded that people with a positive disposition tend to age well. Let us address the issue of positive attitude for a minute. I have heard it said many times that life is all about attitudes. Attitudes affect our behavior, but it is also correct to say that behavior affects our attitude.

Menopause and perimenopause are a serious subject - but I think humor helps! I have laughed at myself, and my family has laughed with me and not at me when I have had certain symptoms. You can listen to my personal and very open account of what I have been going through, and how I’ve seen humor in even the most serious symptoms. I hope if nothing else besides getting the information will make you smile.

More than 90 percent of sexually active women have only been given a very limited amount of information about how birth control works, often right at the beginning when they start their first pill or patch. Not all of us enjoy biology lessons, and figuring out the complexities of hormones, cycles, and our bodies can feel a little too much. But it doesn’t need to be rocket science. Getting a better insight into how your body really works can empower you and open up choices and possibilities so that you make the best decisions for yourself. After all, this is your body!

Approximately one out of every 10 women has endometriosis, an inflammatory disease that causes chronic pain and may lead to infertility. Despite the disease’s prevalence, the average woman may suffer for a decade or more before receiving an accurate diagnosis. Once she does, she’s often given little more than a prescription for pain killers and a referral for the wrong kind of surgery. Beating Endo arms women with what has long been missing - even within the medical community - namely, cutting-edge knowledge of how the disease works and what the endo sufferer can do....

The only thing predictable about menopause is its unpredictability. Factor in widespread misinformation, a lack of research, and the culture of shame around women's bodies, and it's no wonder women are unsure what to expect during the menopause transition and beyond. Menopause is not a disease - it's a planned change, like puberty. And just like puberty, we should be educated on what's to come years in advance, rather than the current practice of leaving people on their own with bothersome symptoms and too much conflicting information.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 91
The author of the highly acclaimed Overdiagnosed describes seven widespread assumptions that encourage excessive, often ineffective, and sometimes harmful medical care. You might think the biggest problem in medical care is that it costs too much. Or that health insurance is too expensive, too uneven, too complicated - and gives you too many forms to fill out. But the central problem is that too much medical care has too little value.

In State of the Heart, the journey to rid the world of heart disease is shown to be reflective of the journey of medical science at large. We are learning not only that women have as much heart disease as men, but that the type of heart disease women experience is diametrically different from that in men. We are learning that heart disease and cancer may have more in common than we could have imagined. And we are learning how human evolution itself may have led to the epidemic of heart disease

Are you a woman between 35 and 50 experiencing PMS, migraine headaches, sudden weight gain, fatigue, irritability, tender or lumpy breasts, memory loss, fibroids, or cold hands and feet? If so, you may be experiencing symptoms of premenopause. Even if you're a decade or more away from menopause, your hormones may already be out of balance, usually caused by an excess of estrogen and a deficiency of progesterone, say the authors of What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Pre-Menopause.

What won't we try in our quest for perfect health, beauty, and the fountain of youth? Well, just imagine a time when doctors prescribed morphine for crying infants. When liquefied gold was touted as immortality in a glass. And when strychnine - yes, that strychnine, the one used in rat poison - was dosed like Viagra. Looking back with fascination, horror, and not a little dash of dark, knowing humor, Quackery recounts the lively, at times unbelievable, history of medical misfires and malpractices.
