description: A longer, healthier, and therefore happier life--that is the promise of this extraordinary step-by-step guide to preventing disease, accident, and untimely death.100,000 deaths can be avoided every year. Yours may be one of them.100,000 is the number of lives which Dr. Donald R. Germann, a nationally known radiologist, estimates can be saved this year, and in subsequent years, by a moderate amount of self discipline and a prudent approach to our own health and that of our loved ones.Too often, Dr. Germann warns, we rely on our government, our physician, or the other fellow to do what is our responsibility--preserve and improve our own health and that of our children. These other agents have done their jobs. The knowledge exists, the technology has been developed, the warnings issued, and the preventives are available.Now Dr. Germann tells the layman in simple non-technical language how to take advantage of the millions of dollars and man hours that have gone toward providing him with an opportunity to enjoy the longest and healthiest life span in the history of mankind.Dr. Germann begins with ten simple steps to improve your health and extend your life expectancy. He goes on to explore and explain the greatest hazards to health at every stage of life. Good health is neither an accident nor a haphazard blessing which can be ignored one day and reaped the next. It is, instead, the result of careful planning that begins before conception and continues into a healthful and joyous old age.
