    Player promises an accurate, quick learning experience to better inform you before you visit your doctor.

    Chapter 2 is organized as a “fast read” of the 27 Q&A’s; Read in 7 minutes.

    The most Popular Question in the Survey and the Internet – “What happens when you Detox?”

    Answer: When you choose to follow a detox program for several days, the effects on your body are apparent. It is not uncommon for blood sugar to drop, to experience dehydration, hunger, dizziness, and even nausea. With no food intake, your body will slow down its metabolism in order to conserve its energy. If the fasting continues, your body will turn to the stored fat, break it down, and use it as source of energy.

    Graham Player

    Born into the family of an eminent medical practitioner in Australia laid the foundation for Graham's interest in the human body, its function, and the many health related subjects. Most of the formative years of his life before five years of age he spent in a wheelchair due to a hip disorder. He would accompany his father to hospitals and calls and became very interested in all things of a medical nature. Although Graham had the best medical treatment available back in the 1950's for his hip, it was not able to be healed by western medicine. Surprisingly it was the Chinese medical treatment approach that eventually cured his problem. Consequently his medical awareness began at this stage and became the seed for further knowledge fertilized later in life to blossom into an insatiable thirst for an understanding of the function of the human body in health and sickness in both the western medicine and the Chinese medicine models. Graham's formal education includes the health sciences as well as Chinese medicine. He has a Ph.D in Health Sciences and degree in Chinese medicine. He began clinical practice in 1979 and has continued with specialization in Chinese medicine, acupuncture, and energy medicine. He has published books and websites, and lectured on various health topics as a result of the following influences throughout his life: *Exposure and influence as a child to Chinese healing systems involving medicine and exercise *Upbringing and influence from living in a family of western medical practitioners *Passion and interest in health and medicine *Education, study and research in both western and Chinese medicine *Ph.D. doctoral research and thesis: "Energy as the Link Between Chinese and Western Medicine" *Clinical practice as an acupuncture and energy medicine specialist in Australia, United Kingdom and Hong Kong where he has been living since the mid 1980's His aim is not only to write health books but to provide something different that is useful, practical and relevant to people seeking to understand their health challenges and who wish to participate in the improvement and maintenance of their own health and wellness. Graham's approach to the writing of his latest eBooks series ("27 Most Important Health Questions") is based on his own surveys of what people actually want to know about various health topics. He typically compiles over a 1,000 questions on the health topic and then narrows them down to what he considers are the 27 most important health questions about that topic. Why 27? Because he believes there is an optimal point at which a carefully selected number of questions can answer most of what people want to know, and is manageable and quick to convey the knowledge and understanding that people are seeking. It is difficult to fully give this knowledge in less than 27, and any more makes the topic too large and complex for the reader's rapid comprehension. The information in his eBooks is provided in a short and useful quick-read format and provides a broad overview of the topic, its problems, and the way forward.

      Message from the Author:

      I hope you find this book, as well as the other publications in my health series, informative, interesting, and useful in managing your health problems and in achieving optimum health. If so, please let others know so that they, too, can take advantage of the knowledge and information shared in my work.

      I believe that we each need to take responsibility for our own health, which requires that we remain informed and updated regarding health issues, particularly about a disease we may have and its treatment options.

      Western medical science tries its best, working within its own scientific, legal, and philosophical framework to provide answers. However, we also know that other parts of the world provide alternative options that have been proven successful in many cases.

      Many of the world’s traditional medicines, including traditional Chinese medicine, are evidence-based in their learning, development, and clinical practice. For over hundreds or thousands of years, they have discovered what works and what doesn’t work.

      Although Western medical science may not yet have ‘discovered’ or sought to discover the reasons why many of these therapies are beneficial, it does not make those therapies any less credible.

      I am confident that the selected questions and the details provided to answer them would be sufficient for most people.

      It is also important to point out here that, in writing about health subjects, some use of medical terminology cannot be avoided. This may intimidate some readers, but rest assured that the technical terms I use are not very different from the ones you will usually hear from a doctor.

      I encourage you to become comfortable with medical terms so that you can have a better understanding of your own condition and have more meaningful discussions with your doctor or any health professionals. In general, the book is reader-friendly and is meant to reach a wide audience.

      This is not meant to be a medical textbook and does not include a comprehensive
