Favorite YouTube Videos for Health
/Ten years ago when I opened my practice in Seattle, there were very few books that I could refer to my patients for reading–save a few nutritional physiology textbooks. There is still no comprehensive book that I can suggest. However, there are numerous books that are worth reading for individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, sugar cravings, and weight gain.
One resource that our society had not developed ten years ago, but have at our fingertips today is YouTube. I have selected four videos from four different authors worth knowing and reading. Plan on investing a few minutes with each You Tube or video presentation. You may find one strikes your interests more than the others. That’s the place to start reading for valuable information. I hope that you find them useful.
