Go Wild: Free Your Body and Mind from the Afflictions of Civilization by John J. Ratey, MD; & Richard Manning
The scientific evidence behind why we should maintain a lifestyle more like that of our ancestors to restore our health and well-being.
In Go Wild, Harvard Medical School professor John Ratey, MD, and journalist Richard Manning reveal that although civilization has rapidly evolved, our bodies stopped changing long ago--creating a disconnect between how we live and what is best for us. This disconnect affects every area of our lives, from our energy levels to our relationships to our general health. Only by using ancient evolutionary instructions to navigate modern life can we realize our true potential in everything including strength, health and well-being, intelligence, happiness, and more.
The book addresses modern diseases (from diabetes to cancer to addiction); the problems of the modern diet; exercise; sleep; mindfulness and relationships; and much more.
