Darwin Hale mobilizes his military mindset to give us winning strategies for better health--and for a better healthcare system." --Toby Cosgrove, MD, former president and CEO of the Cleveland Clinic, author of The Cleveland Clinic Way "I am a believer in working to educate and empower healthcare consumers, and Darwin Hale has written a compelling book that gives readers both the information and the confidence to improve their health and defend themselves against landmines in the system. Darwin's unique life experiences--both military and private-sector leadership--make healthcare more understandable and accessible to those who need it most." --Dr. Radley Griffin, MD, founder of Griffin Concierge Medical "This very necessary book, full of excellent content, is organized, easy to read, and will appeal to anyone concerned about healthcare and how it can be improved in a way so that everyone benefits. The healthcare industry's inefficiencies are of particular concern because of its sheer enormity as well as the threat it poses to national security due to the costs." --Mauro DiPasquale, MD, author of The Metabolic Diet and world powerlifting champion "This book is written to help health consumers arm themselves with the skills to win their fight to stay healthier throughout life. Woven into the individual health journey is a lot of good information about the health system failures and strategies, which individuals can deploy--like nutrition, movement, and mindset to defend themselves against debilitating illness. The author offers a glimpse into the future where technology and scientific advancements offer big benefits; but now, and then, empowered, enlightened consumers will have the best opportunity to win the health battle." --Kathleen Sebelius, former Secretary of Health and Human Services, 2009-2014 From the Back Cover Illness, disease, and aging aren't the only things attacking your wellness.
