Synopsis: "Your Labs Are Fine. You're Not.: Understanding the Mineral Deficiencies Your Doctor Can't See" by John Stephenson-Laws was specifically written for the non-specialist general reader who has experienced something is wrong -- but no one has been able to explain it. For readers who have been to doctors, had the tests, only to see everything coming back as "normal."
But don't feel normal. Who feel exhausted, foggy, anxious, achy-like their body is working against them.
"Your Labs Are Fine. You're Not.: Understanding the Mineral Deficiencies Your Doctor Can't See" is about the gap between what tests are designed to catch and how people actually feel day-to-day. It focuses on minerals-nutrients that are often under-consumed, under-tested, and overlooked when symptoms don't rise to the level of disease.
Minerals are not the answer to everything. But for many people, they're a missing piece. Because that piece might be theirs, "Your Labs Are Fine. You're Not.: Understanding the Mineral Deficiencies Your Doctor Can't See" is essential reading. But it isn't a book having to be read from cover to cover. Rather it is specially designed to meet readers where they are -- whether they are barely functioning and need the simplest possible next step, or are finally stable and ready to understand how everything fits together.
With "Your Labs Are Fine. You're Not.: Understanding the Mineral Deficiencies Your Doctor Can't See" you as the reader can start where you are -- not where you think you should be.
Critique: Extraordinarily 'reader friendly' in style, organization and presentation, this large format (8.5 x 1 x 11 inches, 2.81 pounds) hardcover edition of "Your Labs Are Fine. You're Not.: Understanding the Mineral Deficiencies Your Doctor Can't See" by certified wellness coach Joy Stephenson-Laws is essential and invaluable reading and a prized pick for personal, professional, community, and college/university library Health/Medicine collections and supplemental Health & Medicine curriculum studies lists. Of special and particular relevance for medical students and practitioners, as well as non-specialist general readers with an interest in the role and impact of nutrition with respect to physical illnesses and disease, it should be noted that this hardcover edition of "Your Labs Are Fine. You're Not.: Understanding the Mineral Deficiencies Your Doctor Can't See" is also available in paperback (9798993974064, $49.99) and in a digital book format (Kindle, $19.99).
