About this audiobook

The author of the book—graduate of the Medical University of Poznań, Osteopathie Schule Deutschland and the European Academy of Sport Osteopathy—opens his guide by stressing how deeply it annoys him when, during holidays or birthdays, he hears the usual wishes: “Health! As long as you have your health, everything else will somehow work out.”  As if health were something we have absolutely no influence over, like the weather or winning the lottery.     Of course, he agrees with his patients and with the people who follow him on social media that we don’t have complete control over everything related to our health—because, as he puts it, some people start off already running uphill.     Still, he argues—drawing on both his knowledge and his hands-on clinical practice—that our everyday choices have the greatest impact on our health. Regardless of congenital issues, Apgar scores, age, or sex, human health rests on four powerful pillars.     And this guide is all about those pillars, and about how movement, sleep, proper nutrition, and… sex (and, as the author notes, a few other pleasures as well) shape our health every single day, again and again.
