The disconnected nature of the current healthcare system parallels the disconnected nature of our personal health. Today's patients rarely receive holistic treatment for their health and wellness, even from their primary care provider.

Medical care providers have failed at the systemic level to address the root causes of disease. This has led to the development of more complex diseases-and a greater need for more specialists-than ever before.

Health Starts Now is a must-read for people experiencing the pains of a chronic illness, especially those with disease of unknown cause. With insights about disease origins and holistic health gathered from Dr. David M. Player's five decades as a physician, Health Starts Now discusses the failings of the current healthcare system and teaches you how to keep your health from slipping through the cracks. Learn how your immune system works, what is and isn't working with your providers' current treatment styles, and what you can do to improve your well-being.
