These Are the Best Health-related Books I Have Ever Read
The YOU series of wellness books are some of the most popular of our day. The first three books listed here were all #1 NY Times Bestsellers! And the fourth book was a #2 NY Times Bestseller.
The authors, Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Michael Roizen, are both veterans of the medical industry and in their books explain body processes, weight management, and health care in terms we can all understand. These books are very funny and informative.
Below I have listed their four books and a brief review of each.

Contents at a Glance
YOU: The Owner's Manual
An Insider's Guide to the Body that Will Make You Healthier and Younger
This is the book that started it all, and my personal favorite. The doctors explain every body process imaginable: how blood moves through the body, how the brain functions, how food moves through the digestive tract, etc. Full of drawings and quizzes, this book will teach you everything you want to know about your most personal possession: your body.
YOU: The Owner's Manual, Updated and Expanded Edition: An Insider's Guide to the Body that Will Make You Healthier and Younger
Amazon Price: $17.79 (as of 01/01/2010)
YOU: On A Diet
The Owner's Manual for Waist Management
The only "diet" book you'll ever need. Most diet books contain recipes, eating schedules, and workout plans. This book has all that and more! My favorite part has to be the chapters that actually explain the science of weight gain and loss (in easy-to-understand terms, of course). And at the end of the book is a chapter devoted to weight-loss solutions if diet and exercise don't work for you. You will love this book!
