How to Make Disease Disappear audiobook

Flew through this book. This is finally the health book I’ve been looking for. I’m now following Dr Chatterjee on social media as he’s a major game changer for health and the nhs.(This guy is the only person that could save the nhs!)So the book itself follows four simple principles regarding all aspects of health. I think if We let one of those slip and our body will suffer.So two days into reading the book I realised I’m low in iron (now on the path of rectification) and my gut bacteria will have suffered as I was recently very ill with a stomach bug. So as well as taking some probiotics I’m feeding my body good nutritious food. This will certainly help me get back on track.I didn’t go hell for leather in the gym - this is not what this book is about! Dr Chatterjee encourages you to move (a wee bit more, everyday) everyone can do that right?I think everyone reading this book will realise they don’t get adequate sleep or relaxation/rest. And the Dr agrees we don’t have a lot of time for it in our hectic lives. But there’s still things we can do for 15 mins that certainly help to slow us down and chill us out.My afterthoughts on finishing the book are that I learned so much about the body and how specific things sleep, stress, whitecarbs, etc effect it.I think I’ve finally learned what my body needs. And I’m finally prepared to let it have what it needs after suffering months of severe fatigue.After 3 days I feel better than I have in the past 2/3 years.

A comprehensive guide to a healthier way of living written with empathy.

Listen for a minute. This is one of the most important books I've ever read. (And I read a lot). Whether you're struggling with disease or simply not as healthy as you wish to be, this book is the place to go. It's short and very easy to read, but the best part is that it's so simple to use in your life! You will not regret the time taken to read it. Do it.

It’s not rocket science but it is amazing in its simplicity and effectiveness We often get caught in the trap of doing the same but wrong thing day in day out..like constantly checking our iPhone in the evening in case someone has emailed from work and you must see it and respond to it. I’ve fallen into this trap and if the phones beside me I’m checking it far too often. I decided to do one simple thing. Put my phone in the kitchen at 7.30pm and don’t look at it again until I’ve had my coffee in the morning. I bough a simple alarm clock for my bedroom. The result is hugely improved sleep as I’m not going to bed thinking about work! I still have to put other recommendations into place but look forward to the results!

Dr Chatterjee is making the podcast rounds to talk about his book. I heard him speak on The Rich Roll podcast. It was an excellent interview and brought me to read his book. Good health is expanding to so much more then diet and exercise (while still highly important) and dipping into stress management, technology and sleep. He is presenting the whole body approach to health that needs to start to be the discussion in our health care systems. Great information and inspiration written in an easy to understand and easy to apply into any ones lifestyle manner.

If only Rangan Chatterjee were my local doctor. There’d be none of this ‘no available appointments’ rubbish- there’d be consultations, there’d be follow -ups! There’d be goal-setting and a rainbow food chart to stick on my fridge. All his patients, who he’d know by name and medical issue , would be a little bit in love with him, and may be rewarded by becoming an anecdote in his latest book, before skipping off into the sunset with their new-found health.

Un livre pratique qui donne des conseilles simples et tellement utiles. 👌

For me this book represents the best summary of general health and daily routines I have ever found with an appropriate dose of science.Some key takeaways: • Periodic fasting every day • 10000 steps/day ideally • Get movement from everything, everyday • No caffeine after 12 o’clock • A few minutes of meditation every day, breathing deeply • Drinking more water • Avoiding inflammation • Kitchen exercise routine • Glutes training program • Circadian rhythm and sleep patterns • Walk ideally in the morning 90% of health depends on environment not genes!

An inspiring collection of relatively simple health interventions that are said to make a huge difference in many people's lives. I like that they all pretty much seem attainable, even the exercise ones, which otherwise are probably the ones I'd find the most daunting. But Dr. Chatterjee sets out some simple goals and suggestions that make you want to give it a try. He also doesn't promote any one certain diet, but rather the principles of eating whole, non-processed foods as much as possible, and de-normalizing sugar. This is basic stuff, but sometimes we need to hear it from a source that seems legit and can explain why.My biggest takeaway on the science front was that when we get stressed, our bodies make extra cortisol, and to do that they have to steal ingredients that would otherwise be used to make other super important things like hormones. (Something I also learned about in Lara Briden's book on women's health.) No wonder reducing stress is so important. I always thought that was just sort of a feel-good, soft, catch-all suggestion, so it was interesting to read the details.The other thing I really had very little idea about was how insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes happens. I'm grateful for the semi-decent habits that mean this is probably not going to be a huge worry for me and my family, but it made me thoughtful and a bit sad about how widespread it is, even though it's preventable. Modern habits are the worst, especially when they're rooted in lack of knowledge.I'm reviewing this book under its UK title instead of its American one... in America, it's called "How to Make Disease Disappear," and I just instinctively cringe at something so clickbait-y.

So many good ideas in this book - little ways you can improve your life, each supporting one of Dr Chatterjee's four pillars of Relax, Eat, Move and Sleep. The author is a GP in the UK National Health Service, as well as an author and occasionally a TV doctor, and one of the nice elements of the book for me was the little stories of how he has used some of these practices to improve the lives of his patients, often without having to resort to additional medication. He is a strong believer in looking at the whole person and their lifestyle, rather than just the set of symptoms, and it's clear that this is the way forward for health across an aging population serviced by a limited set of resources. So much more effective in the end, and the interventions seem likely to be both longer-lasting and less expensive. It's great to see a well-researched, practical book with everyday, accessible, changes that can really make a difference to how you live. My wife read this book first and although we are both fit and eat well, we have already adopted some of his suggestions, and I now I have been through it as well we have solid list of more things that we can try!

My first impression was that this was a coffee table book with little or no substance, I was so wrong. The presentation is a bit unusual but there is a lot of interesting content with useful summaries throughout. Occasionally there are apparently pointless pictures, but maybe I am missing the point as I suspect the publishers want this book to be read by a wider audience. It should be widely read as well, Dr. Chatterjee is just right, about everything. Lifestyle, food, exercise, stress, sleep, mindfulness, it is all there and how best to deal with it. There is a saying 'physician heal thy self' and this is so true of ordinary people as well. The secret to good health is in many cases in the hands if the patient and this book gives the reader all the advice needed to be fit and healthy. I have a reasonably healthy lifestyle but I have come away with a tick list of things to do, anyone reading this will do the same.

Loved it. It’s not too long, yet vety informative - excellent for anyone just starting to care about their health (which should be everyone but sadly... not the reality we live in). Let me put it this way, if you care about your health, but you find there’s too many approaches, diets and tips out there, that the tides are always changing and they (whoever they are) are telling us to do something else every year or even more frequently, so you find yourself frustrated or even intimidated, THIS IS A BOOK FOR YOU. No, it’s THE book. It’s general enough for it to still be on point years from now. It’s straightforward, with just enough evidence, includes practical tips and strategies that you can actually cherry-pick from. Take small steps, at your own pace. It’s THE perfect beginner’s guide to living a good life.

For me this book represents the best summary of general health and daily routines for optimum health I have ever seen with an appropriate dose of science and simple but not too simple.Some key takeaways: • Periodic fasting every day • 10000 steps/day ideally • Get movement from everything, everyday • No caffeine after 12 o’clock • A few minutes of meditation every day, breathing deeply • Drinking more water • Avoiding inflammation • Kitchen exercise routine • Glutes training program • Circadian rhythm and sleep patterns • Walk ideally in the morning • 90% of health depends on environment not genes!

If you are well read on the subject there is nothing new here, but it is easy to read and well put together.
