I have many times had occasion to recall the interview with the last physician I went to see. I made a proposition, which might have changed the whole course of my future life, had he only been capable of understanding it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI said: \"Doctor, it has occurred to me that I would like to have someone who knows about the body examine me thoroughly and tell me how to live.\" I can recollect his look of perplexity. \"Was there anything the matter with you before this attack?\" he asked. \"Nothing that I know of,\" I answered; \"but I have often reflected that the way I am living cannot be perfect; and I want to get as much out of my body and mind as I can. I should like to know, for instance, just what are proper things for me to eat\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \"Nonsense,\" he interrupted. \"You go right on and live as you have been living, and don't get to thinking about your health.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd so I went away and dismissed the idea. It was one that I had broached with a great deal of diffidence; so far as I knew, it was entirely original, and I was not sure how a doctor would receive it. All doctors that I had ever heard of were people who cured you when you were sick; to ask one to take you when you were well and help you to stay well, was to take an unfair advantage of the profession.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 122\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.26 x 11 x 8.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 02, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53246717362483,"sku":"9781835524336","price":25.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/ABOw1o5n3N9781835524336.webp?v=1776291855","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/good-health-and-how-we-won-it-the-new-hygiene-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
