Synopsis
This guide provides practical, easy-to-follow Golden Rules on healthy eating, exercise, dealing with stress and other lifestyle issues, offering a fast track to excellent health. A "Life Stage" section looks at developments in each phase of life, from newborn through childhood and adolescence to adulthood and sixty plus. Drawing on her experience as a doctor, parent and grandparent, Dr Stoppard covers a broad range of physical, social and emotional issues in every life stage that have an impact on health and wellbeing. In a detailed "Disease Directory", Dr Stoppard describes more than 280 common conditions in clear, easy-to-understand language. Entries include information on symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and outlook, as well as self-help advice. Special "Focus on" pages highlight particular disorders in greater depth. A separate section looks at the health of babies and children and provides the latest thinking on issues such as cot death and infectious diseases. Essential first aid procedures are explained step by step and there is a comprehensive guide to symptoms - from chest pain to itching - with expert advice on when to seek medical help.
