In Medical Truths Revealed! Dr. Mary Ellen Renna Delivers the Facts on Contemporary Health Concerns Raised by Consumers in Response to Increased Hormone Use, Cell Phones, and Other Pressing Matters

New York — New York ’s SelectBooks announces the publication of Medical Truths Revealed!, an important addition to its contemporary health series. This is the latest title by the well respected author and researcher Mary Ellen Renna, MD.

In her second title for SelectBooks, Dr. Renna uses her years of hands-on experience and scholarship to discuss the implications for public health of a variety of topics that have garnered many headlines and caused much distress over the last few years. Why has there been an increase in autism diagnoses over the last decade, and are childhood vaccinations to blame? What are the implications of widespread hormone and antibiotic use in the American food chain? What are the true benefits and risks of sugar versus artificial sweeteners like aspartame and sucralose? Does cell phone radiation pose an appreciable risk for cancer and other maladies?

Far from what one might expect from a book by a medical doctor, Medical Truths Revealed! delves into all sides of the prevailing arguments on these topics to decisively separate fact from fear while pointing out the difference between common sense concerns and artificial “agendas” proffered by self-proclaimed “healers” and “alternative health experts” out to make a quick buck by capitalizing on public anxiety.

As a well-respected and well-published community pediatrician, Dr. Renna has long heard the concerns of patients and parents about topics like the increased amount of hormones in our foods and the perceived link between cell phone use and certain brain cancers and Alzheimer’s disease. In Medical Truths Revealed! she clearly explains how the available scientific research dispels many of the more popular myths about the dangers posed by modern lifestyles while acknowledging the validity of certain alternative approaches to medicine and health maintenance. Beyond assuaging fears and soothing frayed nerves, Medical Truths Revealed! also offers vital information on ways to avoid autism in children, directly address the growing obesity epidemic, and possibly lower the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease later in life.

Dr. Renna’s Medical Truths Revealed! is an important contribution to SelectBooks’ growing list of titles that provide practical knowledge about health issues that affect us all. It is entertaining, edifying, and essential reading concerning current health issues for the whole family.
