Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I want a health guide that starts with body systems & problems, e.g. “digestive” or “respiratory.” This book just lists medical issues alphabetically, & one has no idea where to begin with home health treatment. For instance, “Fever” is listed as a medical issue, but the explanation is not in the context of any health issue that might cause a fever. Not helpful at all. We’ve got to find something else. Our old Blue Cross Blue Shield “Healthwise Handbook” is great, but it’s from the 1990’s or something & we need something up-to-date.

⭐This is really basic info, good for a person who needs an intro type explanation. I do think that for that given it apparently being for that type audience the index is poor. You’d need to know variations of how a condition might be categorized (e.g., COPD) to know where info might be located within the book.

⭐I could have gotten this via some free trial that arrived in the mail. If I decided that I wanted to pass on the trial, I’d be charged $29.95 plus shipping, handling and tax. Instead, I opted for the $9.99 ebook, and I’m so glad I did. Originally, I bought the ebook so I could immediately see what the Mayo Clinic had to suggest regarding dealing with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome without medication. Who knew that crushing exhaustion which bears down on a person without warning, causing them to pull over when driving or sit in a shopping aisle, and wait for the worst of it to pass, could be chalked up to “bothersome?” And severe Constipation, which compromises the health of one’s gut and in turn effects the entire health of the body could also be summarized as “bothersome.” This kind of disappointing, trite information is not what I’d expect from the Mayo Clinic.

⭐Did not find the detail that I expected from the Mayo Clinic. It read like a compilation of articles one has read in magazines covering general topics. Probably would be useful for a young family but for seniors like myself we need detailed information on specific subjects.

⭐Basic information about a lot of health issues. Good reference book to have around. This was the first used book we’ve purchased on Amazon and were pleasantly surprised with our copy. It was listed as “Like New” and it certainly was.

⭐There are a lot of medical conditions which are not included.

⭐Easy to read, comprehend, and understand for a lay person. Text is large and not too much text on a page. Great for those with vision issues and those without much medical knowledge. Highly recommend.

⭐Rather basic information . . . much of which I already knew.

⭐very pleased i have it to quick reference though

⭐Brilliant product and fast service, value for money on both counts.

⭐Love the book with a lot of useful health info. It definitely helps to ask the effective question or treatment when to see a doctor about the health issue when I needed.
