A tongue-in-cheek account of the changes that have transformed medicine into big business. Physician and medical ethicist Carl Elliott tracks the new world of commercialized medicine from start to finish, introducing the professional guinea pigs, ghostwriters, thought leaders, drug reps, public relations pros, and even medical ethicists who use medicine for (sometimes huge) financial gain.

Dr. Mark Wiley has spent decades researching and mastering natural wellness practices around the world. He's taken those techniques and pioneered a powerful, integrated mind/body approach to arthritis relief and prevention. Simply put, mainstream medicine fails to eradicate our everyday pains, illnesses and diseases. It fails because it is passive and reactionary and thus it is unable to prevent you from experiencing chronic health conditions. The important thing is to see and know that the solution to your daily suffering is grounded in a five-part process called, the Arthritis Relief Action Plan: Part 1: Educate yourself about the real causes and solutions of arthritis Part 2: Reduce the current level of symptoms you are experiencing Part 3: Halt or significantly reduce the worsening of your condition Part 4: Prevent the symptoms from flaring to improve your quality of life Part 5: Regenerate healthy tissue to reverse the damage done In the pages of Arthritis Reversed, Dr. Wiley shows you how to determine the underlying-and sometimes hidden-causes of your arthritic symptoms. These are actually obvious root causes and contributors that are only "hidden" because you have not (yet) been taught to look for and identify them. Dr. Wiley shows you how to do this and then how to use that knowledge to reduce your pain and halt or slow the progression of the condition, typically within 30 to 90 days.
