The T-Factor Fat Gram Counter (Revised and Updated)
by Jamie Pope Martin Katahn<P> This is the book that made publishing history and started a revolution in the way Americans think about what they eat. Now, for the first time, it is available in a trade edition, with larger, more readable type. <P> The T-Factor Fat Gram Counter grew out of The T-Factor Diet, the first popular diet book to show that fat was (and is) the major culprit in the American diet. All calories, Dr. Martin Katahn told us, are not created equal: his metabolic studies showed that the fat we consume in our food, as opposed to the carbohydrate and protein, is converted most efficiently to body fat and may lead to such conditions as cancer, hypertension, heart disease, and diabetes. The T-Factor Fat Gram Counter tells you everything you need to know to cut the hidden fat out of your food. It also provides a brief overview of vital diet and exercise principles, and target levels of fat consumption for men and women at varying body weights. Once you understand the role of dietary fat, you are liberated forever from the need to cut calories or even restrict your overall intake of food. Spend a few minutes a day checking the fat levels in various foods and making sensible choices, and you are well on your way to a longer, happier, and healthier life.

The New Generation Breast Cancer Book
by Dr Elisa PortFrom an expert in the field comes the definitive guide to managing breast cancer in the information age--a comprehensive resource for diagnosis, treatment, and peace of mind. The breast cancer cure rate is at an all-time high, and so is the information, to say nothing of the misinformation, available to patients and their families. Online searches can lead to unreliable sources, leaving even the most resilient patient feeling uneasy and uncertain about her diagnosis, treatment options, doctors, side effects, and recovery. Adding to a patient's anxiety is input from well-meaning friends and family, with stories, worries, and opinions to share, sometimes without knowing the details of her particular case, when in reality breast cancer treatment has gone well beyond a "one size fits all" approach. Elisa Port, MD, FACS, chief of breast surgery at The Mount Sinai Hospital and co-director of the Dubin Breast Center in Manhattan, offers an optimistic antidote to the ocean of Web data on screening, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Inside you'll discover * the various scenarios when mammograms indicate the need for a biopsy * the questions to ask about surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and breast reconstruction * the important things to look for when deciding where to get care * the key to deciphering complicated pathology reports and avoiding confusion * the facts on genetic testing and the breast cancer genes: BRCA-1 and BRCA-2 * the best resources and advice for those supporting someone with breast cancer From innovations in breast cancer screening and evaluating results to post-treatment medications and living as a breast cancer survivor, Dr. Elisa Port describes every possible test and every type of doctor visit, providing a comprehensive, empathetic guide that every newly diagnosed woman (and her family) will want to have at her side.Praise for The New Generation Breast Cancer Book "One book you need . . . If you're considering your options for treatment or know someone who is, this step-by-step guide, The New Generation Breast Cancer Book, is essential reading."--InStyle "Elisa Port, M.D., is the doctor every patient deserves: brilliant and compassionate. Her book will be a sanity saver and, quite possibly, a life saver."--Geralyn Lucas, author of Why I Wore Lipstick to My Mastectomy "The New Generation Breast Cancer Book helps you sort through all the information you've gathered, clarify the terminology, consider the options, and make the right decisions for your unique case."--Edie Falco "A lifeline for many women in need of today's most up-to-date choices for treatment . . . Everyone should read this book for themselves, their mothers, grandmothers, daughters, and friends."--Kara DioGuardi, Grammy-nominated songwriter, music executive, and Arthouse Entertainment co-founder"The book is teeming with easy-to-understand medical explanations, tips, takeaways, and pro-and-con discussions of various courses of action.

Rational Dictionary of Food Science
by Giosue Della Porta Diana NanosA dictionary of easy consultation on topics and issues of food science. The characteristic feature of this dictionary are the constant references between the entries that transform it into a short but complete manual of food science. The definitions adopted in this dictionary are in accordance with the current knowledge on the topic of nutrition, but the Author strongly believes that these definitions should not be definite or immutable as if they were dogmas of faith. The proper way to interpret them is the way of hypothesis work; to subject them to verification by the scientific community and to wait until their confirmation or contradiction. This is the mandatory itinerary of the scientific progress. The proclamations that are not based on facts they do not belong to science.
Adiós a la migraña: Porque debemos tratarla, aunque no tenga cura
by Dr. Jesús Porta-EtessamEntiende tu dolor de cabeza y descubre cómo tratarlo de la mano de uno de los neurólogos más reconocidos de nuestro país. Históricamente, la medicina ha centrado sus esfuerzos en patologías graves y potencialmente mortales. Sin embargo, hay enfermedades en apariencia inofensivas que igualmente pueden minar la vida de quien las padece. Este es el caso de las cefaleas, uno de los trastornos más habituales del sistema nervioso. De hecho, se estima que cerca de la mitad de la población mundial sufre o ha sufrido dolor de cabeza en algún momento de su vida. Hay más de ciento cincuenta tipos de cefaleas, con distintas causas, formas e intensidades, y algunos de ellos, como la migraña, pueden llegar a ser del todo incapacitantes en el día a día de una persona. Por ello, es importante conocerlos, identificarlos y darles la importancia que merecen.El doctor Jesús Porta-Etessam, especialista en neurología y patologías asociadas al sistema nervioso, nos acerca las claves para enfrentarnos a ellos y mejorar nuestra calidad de vida. Y nos ayuda, al fin, a arrojar algo de luz sobre un tema que afecta a tanta gente y sobre el que aún planean tantas incógnitas. Los primeros lectores comentan:«Cinco millones de personas padecen migrañas en nuestro país, el 12% de la población. Está considerada la enfermedad neurológica más frecuente y una de las más incapacitantes, sin embargo, las personas que la padecen han de enfrentarse no solo a los fuertes dolores de cabeza sino a la limitación que esto supone en su vida cotidiana y a la incomprensión social. El nuevo libro del doctor Jesús Porta, Adiós a la migraña, explica de una manera clara y con un lenguaje cercano en qué consiste esta enfermedad para que la sociedad entienda realmente el sufrimiento de las personas que la padecen y contribuyamos entre todos a un mundo más justo».Mara Torres (SER) «Un libro esencial para comprender una enfermedad que nos puede acompañar casi toda la vida y que afecta a más del 10% de la población. Un libro que habla de futuro y de nuevos tratamientos llenos de esperanza. En definitiva, se trata de mejorar la calidad de vida de los pacientes».Manolo HH (RNE)«Convivir con la migraña es un sinvivir, un malvivir... un sobrevivir. Nadie dijo que fuera fácil, pero tampoco imposible. El avance de la ciencia en su conocimiento es como el rayo que no cesa, donde nosotros, los pacientes -de padecer, pero también de no impacientarnos-, depositamos cada día la esperanza de dar con fármacos que consigan disminuir la intensidad y la periodicidad de nuestras incapacitantes crisis de dolor, ese lamentable epicentro de nuestras vidas. Después de más de treinta años rezando por vivir menos pero mejor, he visto la luz gracias a la perseverante búsqueda de un tratamiento 'ad hoc'. El camino ha sido largo y extenuante, pero nada ha merecido más la pena: por fin puedo decir que el cambio a mejor no es ya sólo una opción, sino una realidad».Raquel Martínez (Informativos RTVE)
