Dr. Carmen Fong makes talking about poop fun! This easy-to-read, helpful book is packed with medically backed information that helps patients poop better, start conversations with their doctors, and break the stigmas that keep so many silent.
Constipation Nation is a deftly crafted and complete course of instructive information on the subject of the digestive system and gastroenterology that will be especially appreciated by anyone who has problems with chronic constipation. Exceptionally 'reader friendly' in organization and presentation, Constipation Nation is a unique and unreservedly recommended addition to personal, medical professional, community, and college/university library Health/Medicine collections and supplemental curriculum studies lists.
Dr. Fong has written an extraordinarily comprehensive book on a pervasively common concern—that of constipation. Her encyclopedic approach to this subject is truly remarkable. As a colon and rectal surgeon, myself, I learned considerably more about bowel evacuatory dysfunction than I had heretofore believed I understood. While written for a lay audience, it is at once a scientific, yet personal approach and is accompanied by an extensive bibliography. The author is to be congratulated on providing a worthy medical text for all individuals troubled by this condition.
