Healthy Mind Healthy Body: Obtain well being for life with this healthy, longevity book. Paperback – May 1, 2018

A truly outstanding book of concise, well written, up to date and highly relevant medical information. As a physician, in addition to reading technical information, journals, studies and texts, I look at a lot of information written for people who are not physicians. This is one of the best sources of information I've seen. This easy to understand book sums it all up, and gives great advice on living the healthiest life you can live. I highly recommend this book to any young person or adult who wants the latest and most accurate information on how to be as healthy and happy as you can be.

Dr. Lipkis utilizes his many years of practicing medicine to provide this very well written and easy to read book. He provides very important information on lifestyle choices including maintaining a healthy diet, getting sufficient sleep each night, good dental hygiene, annual physicals, etc. He emphasizes the importance of minimizing stress in our everyday lives to help maintain a healthy body. The chapter on the importance of immunizations is very enlightening and should be followed by everyone. I highly recommend this book to everyone from teenager to senior citizen.

I’ve always been interested in the mind/body connection and have tried to employ some of the suggestions in this book throughout my life (self talk, exercise, eating well) but Healthy Mind Healthy Body lays out a comprehensive and actionable set of lifestyle changes that I hadn’t considered. The key messages I took away from this book-start with small changes, stay the course, refer back to the book if you fall off the wagon! I will share this book with both my teens (to help them establish great habits) and my parents (to remind them to stay the course-there is scientific evidence on how to live a long healthy life!)

Paperback was written for preschoolers, very large font, pictures with no color, very short story. The information is so basic, not very helpful at all. Very disappointing for the $15 it cost.

Appropriately written for the average person, Dr. Lipkis provides information and recommendations on the essential elements of our lifestyle (diet, stress, exercise, sleep, medications, medical tests) that will help us make good decisions in our lives. Our overall health is a combined effort of physicians and ourselves. The good doctor makes that important point eminently clear and shows us how we can do our part in attaining that goal.

What an invaluable resource for those of us who care about not only the length of our lives but the quality too! This book is not long but lays out a virtual checklist for taking care of ourselves chapter by chapter. It reminds us of the many routine tests that we are fortunate to have available to us in our country. The book also wisely offers many methods to increase our state of happiness, as this too is a large component of our well being. All in all, I highly recommend this book. It is just too good to pass up!

If I could give this remarkable little gem more than five stars, I would. It includes a wide variety of medical, nutritional, emotional and psychological information in an easy to understand manner. Just a few are prevention of diseases, healthy weight loss, medical tests to have and avoid, tips for a fuller and happy emotional life, using the mind to help create positive behavioral changes and so much more. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants a healthier and happier life.

This is a readable, humorous run down on how to stay healthy for those who aspire to better health & others who need a refresher course. I’m a health enthusiast and appreciated learning even more about self care from Dr. Evan Lipkis.A wonderful gift that will inspire & teach people how to team up with their doctor for a better level of care.
