What modern medicine is really about (Hint: It’s not health)
The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines “medicine” as: The science and art dealing with the maintenance of health and the prevention, alleviation, or cure of disease.

One of my mother’s friends had it, and all I can remember is that she had to limit sweets. Well, once...

Do you have this risk factor for heart disease?
