Health Without Hospitals: The Healing Power of Nature FIRST EDITION, Volume One

by Christie C. Yerby NMD

'Health Without Hospitals' is a collection of short previously published articles describing easy-to-apply health tips for men and women. The articles first appeared in newspapers in North Carolina as the philosophy and utilization of natural and alternative medical sciences were becoming popular. The book continues to serve as a primer of information for those who want to return to the 'basics' or for those who have been asking for the articles to be made available for public reading again. The articles provide helpful ways the reader can become more proactive in their own health decisions, while still working with their primary care doctor. They serve as additional foundational information, not usually received from a conventional MD. Dr. Yerby is a medically-trained and licensed naturopathic physician. Her articles were described as being straight to the point. without mincing of words, and were considered on the cutting edge of health science in the early 2000s. This exposure into the real possibilities of gaining better health was well received and excitement spread like wildfire throughout the communities within which her articles were read. One of the first medically-trained and licensed naturopathic doctors to be active in North Carolina in the science of natural health care, she is credited with being a motivating influence for bringing the world of natural and alternative medicine to that area. Help for both men and women is provided with no agenda from the author other than to help change 'health care to health-caring', making the possibility of avoiding excessive medications and expensive trips to the hospital a reality.
