  Cholesterol LDL and Statins...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. 
  A cholesterol number rarely comes with an explanation. You get a printout, a word like "elevated," and maybe a prescription — with almost nobody walking you through what the number actually predicts, whether the family history that scares you is even the right thing to worry about, or why the pill so many people are handed ends up sitting unfinished in a medicine cabinet within a year. 
   
  This book explains what LDL actually measures and what it doesn't, why genetics can matter more than diet for some people and barely at all for others, which foods have real evidence behind them and which are dietary folklore, and what statin side effects are real versus what gets blamed on the pill that was actually caused by something else entirely. You'll learn how to read your own risk number in context instead of in isolation, and exactly what to do next once you actually understand what you're looking at. 
   
  Told through the real, specific numbers and decisions of people facing this exact diagnosis, this is a clear, evidence-based guide to a topic most people are handed a prescription for and never actually taught.

  These are poems about conversations that we'd like to have with ourselves and with others when our bodies and minds are fraying... 
  There's struggle and triumph, loss and humanity within the pages of this eclectic collection of verse. 
  Here's what Readers have to say: 
  "[This] collection brings together the dilemmas doctors and clinicians face through the voices of poetry in a way that is quite extraordinarily moving. It is about intersections, beliefs, power, frailty and so much more." - Ruth 
  "Words from a doctor's heart. The touch-points. The soft, comforting words, the firmness of harsh realities. Acceptance of the inevitable. Or the frustrating answers that make no sense." - Ashish 
  "Some of the stories may sound unreal to those who haven't been to crowded public hospitals in large cities. A doctor's perspective beautifully captured. Most of the poems are short stories of amazing tales. If you read poetry or short stories, don't miss out on this one." - Wonchi Murry

  Dispersals - On Plants Borders...

  A prize-winning memoirist and nature writer turns to the lives of plants entangled in our human world to explore belonging, displacement, identity, and the truths of our shared future 
   
   
   
  A seed slips beyond a garden wall. A tree is planted on a precarious border. A shrub is stolen from its culture and its land. What happens when these plants leave their original homes and put down roots elsewhere? 
   
   
   
  In fourteen essays, Dispersals explores the entanglements of the plant and human worlds: from species considered invasive, like giant hogweed; to those vilified but intimate, like soy; and those like kelp, on which our futures depend. Each of the plants considered in this collection are somehow perceived as being "out of place"—weeds, samples collected through imperial science, crops introduced and transformed by our hand. Combining memoir, history, and scientific research in poetic prose, Jessica J. Lee meditates on the question of how both plants and people come to belong, why both cross borders, and how our futures are more entwined than we might imagine.
