Compass of Health introduces a revolutionary way of looking at our bodies and our health. Based on the ancient theory of Sasang Medicine, it provides a reference point, or compass, in the roiling sea of competing healthcare options. This book teaches you how to determine your constitution and thereby select the appropriate regimen of diet, herbal supplements, exercise, and Oriental medical therapies to prevent sickness and attain optimum health.
Included are chapters on such subjects as relationships and career to help you apply Sasang Medicine throughout your daily life. Entertaining Sasang analyses of famous people throughout history as diverse as Marilyn Monroe and Napoleon round out the book, serving as examples of the different body types.
