Insure Your Health Yourself

What if the best health insurance you could ever have isn't something you buy — but something you do?

That's the idea behind Insure Your Health Yourself. After more than seven decades of living, learning, experimenting, and questioning conventional wisdom, I've come to believe that we have far more influence over our health than we're often led to believe.

But I didn't arrive at that conclusion by reading medical textbooks. I arrived at it through experience — including years of struggling with health problems that forced me to question much of what I'd previously accepted.

My experience with mercury exposure changed the way I looked at healthcare. It taught me the importance of asking questions, looking beyond symptoms, and taking a more active role in decisions affecting my own body.

This book will explore prevention, everyday habits, personal responsibility, and the choices that may influence how well we live as we grow older. It's about learning to listen to your body, think for yourself, and make informed decisions before problems arise.

I'm not writing this as a doctor or medical expert. I'm writing it as someone who's spent a lifetime experimenting, observing, making mistakes, learning from them, and trying to understand what it really takes to stay healthy.

And perhaps most importantly, I want readers to recognize that it's never too early — or too late — to start taking greater responsibility for their own health.
