    The Case Against Sugar , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 693min
    From the best-selling author of Why We Get Fat, a groundbreaking, eye-opening exposé that makes the convincing case that sugar is the tobacco of the new millennium: backed by powerful lobbies, entrenched in our lives, and making us very sick. Among Americans, diabetes is more prevalent today than ever; obesity is at epidemic proportions; nearly 10 percent of children are thought to have nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. And sugar is at the root of these, and other, critical society-wide, health-related problems. With his signature command of both science and straight talk, Gary Taubes delves into Americans' history with sugar: its uses as a preservative, as an additive in cigarettes, the contemporary overuse of high-fructose corn syrup. He explains what research has shown about our addiction to sweets. He clarifies the arguments against sugar, corrects misconceptions about the relationship between sugar and weight loss, and provides the perspective necessary to make informed decisions about sugar as individuals and as a society.  ungekürzt.

    Micah N. Dillon woke up one Monday morning to find her husband of 13 years unconscious in the shower. At 43 years old, on no medication, Ben Dillon died of a chronic total obstruction heart attack. At 36, mother to two young children, Stone and Stella, Micah now had to continue life without her husband. In almost an instant, she lost three key aspects of her identity: She was no longer a wife, she had to step away from her career as a real estate agent to take care of her children, and she temporarily lost her ability to sing because of overuse. For six months, everything Micah had relied upon for identity, purpose and worth was stripped away. Yet, in the middle of it all, God provided himself to fill in the gaps of her life. My Mended Heart includes 100 encouraging quotes written by Micah that focus on being a sender of goodness to another so that they too can find the great mender, Jesus. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    For over a decade, Lily Green has terrorized the United States. Like a monster, she seemed to be everywhere and yet nowhere. Until one day, when her killing spree suddenly stopped. Where could she be?That is the question everyone wanted to know the answer to for the past year. There were allegations made by the beloved reporter Shannon Scott that Tom Childress had the answers, but even Tom found himself on the same side of that question.

    Parenting in the Age of Attention Snatchers: A Step-by-Step Guide to Balancing Your Child's Use of Technology , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 416min
    Are your kids unable to step away from the screens? Here is a practical, step-by-step guide that gives parents the tools to teach children, from toddlers to teens, how to gain control of their technology use. As children spend more of their time on tablets and smartphones, using apps specially engineered to capture their attention, parents are concerned about the effects of so much technology use - and they feel powerless to intervene. They want their kids to be competent and competitive in their use of technology, but they also want to prevent the attention problems that can develop from overuse. Lucy Jo Palladino shows that the key is to help kids build awareness and control over their own attention. In this guide she gives parents the tools to do exactly that in seven straightforward, evidence-based steps. Parents will learn the best practices to guide children to understand and control their attention - and to recognize and resist when their attention is being "snatched". This approach can be modified for kids of all ages. Parents will also learn the critical difference between voluntary and involuntary attention, new findings about brain development, and what puts children at risk for attention disorders. ungekürzt.

    Managing the Gift of Your ADD/HD Child , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 336min
    This book will challenge the mainstream thinking of ADD/HD. Dr. Kevin sees ADD/HD as an evolutionary process and as such we need to allow it to adjust the environment and work with it, not medicate it. The goal of that process is to broaden the bandwidth of humanity, not to replace non-ADD/HD people but to "ADD" to them. ADD/HD people over the last century have been creating a more ADD/HD friendly and challenging environment with technology such as computers and interactive games. ADD/HD individuals are not broken, not disabled, do not need to be fixed and are mostly handicapped by a series of choices that oftentimes they don't know or understand why they are making. There is a need to separate what is really an ADD/HD issue and what is an issue of the ADD/HD person living in a non-ADD/HD world. In this book parents are given insights, tools and skills to help them empower the ADD/HD child in their life. The listener takes this journey through first understanding, anh then parenting, teaching guiding and supporting - learning how to embrace their child's gifts and talents on their terms. This can be accomplished without having to sacrifice brilliance, creativity or unique ways of seeing or being in the world through the overuse of medication or behavior modification techniques that destroy their self-worth and self-esteem. ungekürzt.

    Clean: The New Science of Skin and the Beauty of Doing Less , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 431min
    Brought to you by Penguin.Soap saves lives. But did you know that excessive use of soap and skin-care products are harming our health and the environment? Apart from in hand-washing there is no need to use soap on our bodies at all? Doctor and preventative medicine expert James Hamblin gave up showering five years ago and only ever uses soap on his hands. In Clean he introduces a new way to think about cleanliness - one that is cheaper, simpler and better for our skin, our immunity and the world in which we live.Hygiene prevents the spread of disease and saves countless lives. But in recent decades, rather than safeguarding us from illness, an obsession with ‘cleanliness’ seems to have been having the opposite effect. As we are now starting to realise, our overuse of soap, sanitisers and untested, misleading skin-care products is doing untold damage to our skin’s vital microbial layer, which influences everything from acne, eczema and dry skin to how we smell. Not only might our obsession with soap-based cleanliness be exacerbating or even causing many of the skin conditions we seek to remedy or avoid, it may even be weakening our immune defences and increasing our vulnerability to allergies. Lucid, accessible and deeply researched, Clean explains how we got here - thanks to the concerted efforts of the multi-billion-dollar cosmetics industry - and introduces us to the emerging science that will be at the forefront of health and wellness conversations in coming years. It shows that the new goal of skin care will be to cultivate a healthy biome and to embrace a natural approach to being clean. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Barrett Leddy.
