Synopsis
Known to the Hispanic community as the Chief Medical Correspondent for Univision, Dr. Juan Rivera, better known as Dr. Juan, has created a complete health and wellness plan for the Hispanic ommunity: Improve your Health: Little By Little. There were many reasons that led him to write this book: “Perhaps the most important one is that I am seeing how we, as a community, are losing the battle against obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. All illnesses can be prevented to some degree.” The first part of this book explains these four illnesses. And in the second part, he details the seven commandments to achieve long-term good health, not just by promoting a balanced diet and regular exercise, but also the importance of rest, stress control, a sex life, how to have healthy babies, and finally, how to avoid medical mistakes. Each one of these topics, with Dr. Juan’s entertaining style and a practical plan of action, are explained in seven chapters:
First Commandment: Your Diet, Little By Little
Second Commandment: He Who Does Not Walk, Rusts
Third Commandment: Early to Bed, Early to Rise...
Fourth Commandment: You Can’t Cure Your Body Without Paying Attention To Your Mind
Fifth Commandment: Sex Isn’t Taboo, It’s Healthy
Sixth Commandment: Healthy Babies, Happy Families
Seventh Commandment: Avoid Medical Accidents
In Improve your Health: Little By Little, Dr. Juan shares with his readers not just this complete health and wellbeing plan, but also personal anecdotes and stories. .
