The UC Berkeley Wellness Self-care Handbook
The Everyday Guide to Prevention & Home Remedies
Description:... You'll get authoritative, easy-to-use information about everyday health problems in this guide that draws on the expertise of the world-renowned School of Public Health at the University of California, Berkeley. In clear, straightforward language, Drs. Swartzberg and Margen explain the first steps you can take to successfully recognize, treat, and manage more than 160 common complaints and ailments. With ailments arranged A to Z, you can quickly look up symptoms, causes, and solid, proven home remedies for problems ranging from athlete's foot and colds to hair loss and wrinkles, as well as more serious concerns such as arthritis. Each entry also tells you what if you do nothing - whether your body will heal itself, or, with some conditions, what complications might develop if you don't intervene. You'll also find out when to call your doctor, and what to expect at the doctor's office.
