I enjoyed this book, particularly the conversational tone and humour。 I found the plain-language explanations thorough。 There are no news flashes here; all the advice that Dr。 Rajan gives is what I’ve heard from most healthcare professionals and most of what’s in the book I’ve already learned, but Dr。 Rajan, through his clever wording and humour makes it all seem new。 The book was a pleasure to read。 Thank you to Netgalley and Rodale Books for the advance reader copy。

What a cool and unique book! I really loved all of the health hacks in this book, and how some of them could literally save your life。 The author goes through each system in the body and gives us facts about eahc one, along with ways to improve these areas and fun and interesting random things that we might not have known about them。 There were a lot of things I had no idea were possible or I had light bulb moments where I said, "Wow, THAT'S why my body does that!"
