This book is written in a descriptive and detailed manner, and the author uses a quantitative method to conduct research for this book. Specifically, Health Tips, Myths and Tricks contains statistical research to back up the concepts explained by the author. The author drafted this book in an understandable manner and using comprehensible terms. As a reader, I loved this because I didn’t have to come across medical jargon that I could not understand. This book was excellently edited because I did not find any grammatical error. In fact, the format the author used to write this book makes the book readable. There are no profanities in this book, and the book can be enjoyed by people from any religion.

The author presents this book as a health guide. Health Tips, Myths and Tricks is one of the most essential books to read. I say this because this book provides necessary health tips and highlights a lot of popular health concepts that are misleading. I enjoyed reading this book, and I loved learning more about health-related concepts of which I wasn’t aware. This book provides essential guide on how to leave a happy and healthy life while warning the readers to be aware of the big companies that trick consumers into buying their products even though they are harmful. The author thoroughly believes in conventional medicine, and he repeatedly expresses his doubts for the credibility of alternative medicine.

What I love about this book is the detailed and easy to read concepts. I learned a lot of things that I can apply to my own health in order to live a better and healthy life. There is not a single thing I did not like about this book. I rate this book 4 out of 4. This book did not only provide great wellness advice, but it also exposed a lot of popular health myths and misconceptions. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about healthy living. Readers who enjoyed Manifesto for a Cancer Patient by Colleen Huber will love this book.
