The Harvard Medical School Guide to Men’s Health assembles into a single volume a quarter-century’s worth of hard-won knowledge about men’s health – knowledge that men need to lead longer, healthier lives. More than twenty-five years ago, researchers at Harvard Medical School and the Harvard School of Public Health began what have become the largest aggregate studies ever of men’s health. Tracking 96,000 American men over decades, these studies provided the ultimate resource on what keeps men healthy – and what doesn’t. The result is this book, which features current information on the health-preserving functions of diet, exercise and OTC drugs and supplements. It gives valuable advice on behaviour modification, stress control, cancer, kidney and bladder problems. This book also provides an easy-to-navigate guide to the health-care system that gives balanced views on the benefits and drawbacks of common medical tests. A logical and scientific reference that should be on every man’s coffee table or bookshelf.
