Book Reviews of Vital Man: Natural Health Care for Men at Midlife
Book Review: FINALLY, SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS
Summary: 5 Stars
Stephen Buhner brings considerable wit, wisdom, and compassion to his exploration of the midlife passage that men (and women as well) must inevitably travel. The passages that look at the specific teachings that our bodies have for us in the midlife journey are nothing short of magnificiently poetic. He follows this up with a comprehensive look at the different parts of our bodies, how they work, how they can malfunction in midlife and what herbs, suppements, and foods can help correct them. The book cites several thousand clinical trials with the herbs and supplements that are suggested making it one of the better researched books in this field. One of the unique - and powerful - elements of the book is the incredibly detailed look at natural testosterone enhancers - used to counter the deleterious effects of synthetic pollutants that affect male androgen levels, causing everything from low libido to low sperm counts. But the true joy of the book is the wit and wisdom that comes through on nearly every page. Truly, this is a book that every man - and his spouse - needs to read. Highly recommended.
Summary of Vital Man: Natural Health Care for Men at Midlife
Vital Man is the first book to provide a comprehensive overview of natural health care for men entering middle age. Through meticulous research and his own experience as an herbalist and psychotherapist, Stephen Buhner offers practical knowledge to help men navigate the forty-five most common disorders that occur at age forty and above. He presents irrefutable evidence that many of the primary medical conditions from which men suffer can be attributed to abnormal changes in hormone levels caused by environmental pollutants. These pervasive chemicals enter men's bodies and disrupt the natural progression into midlife. They can wreak havoc on a man's health, causing erectile dysfunction, lowered sperm count, prostate disorders, cancer, heart disease, and many other problems.Vital Man offers hundreds of herbal remedies and healing foods to boost natural testosterone levels and to prevent or reverse disease. Sensitive and provocative, it will assure the successful transition into a vital, healthy middle age for men.
