Wellness author to speak in Pittsfield - October 17, 2007
The author of a best-selling book on wellness will be speaking at a free community program sponsored by Berkshire Health Systems. Steven Aldana, Ph.D., author of “The Culprit & the Cure: Why lifestyle is the culprit behind America’s poor health and how transforming that lifestyle can be the cure” will speak at the Berkshire Hills Country Club on Thursday, November 15th at 6:30 p.m. The event is open to the public and is free. Pre-registration is required.
In The Culprit and the Cure, Dr. Aldana has gleaned research from around the globe covering the areas of diet, disease, lifestyle, and healthy behaviors to provide a practical guide to making the changes science has proven will lead to better health and longer life. In an entertaining, easy to understand, and convincing manner, The Culprit and the Cure presents the evidence, makes recommendations, and provides strategies to help even the least disciplined among us achieve a better quality of life.
Steven Aldana is a professor of lifestyle medicine in the College of Health and Human Performance at Brigham Young University. As a prolific researcher and writer, The Culprit and the Cure is the latest of several books he has written in addition to more than 60 scientific articles. A nationally recognized scientist and teacher, Dr. Aldana has become a leading authority on the importance of living a healthy lifestyle. Now, with The Culprit and the Cure that importance is supported with a practical, do-able plan to make lifestyle change a reality.
According to Dr. Aldana, "This book will help you live a longer, better life. Once you understand why your current lifestyle is causing poor health and see what is meant by good nutrition and physical activity, you will be more ready to change your behaviors. By learning how to change, you start on the road to better health. The time to plan for a healthy future is now."
To register for the free lecture, call the Berkshire Health Systems Community Relations and Development Office at 413-447-2060. Space is limited. |
