It teaches about a new and developing science of medicine, and how the environment is affecting universal health in important ways never suspected.

Blood pressure and heart problems. Colitis. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Headache. Depression. Any chronic illness.

Crawford Duhon, M.D.), this is a courageous story of survival that incidently addresses other leading problems of this age . child molestation, unmanageable children.
