One of the most overlooked aspects of our health and that of everyone around us involves the nose, and every day this vital part of our existence, if properly cared for, has the power to change our entire consciousness and mood in a single second. Dr. Hana, as she proudly proclaims, "knows noses" and is on a mission to educate us all about how, when a nose fails in some fashion, it affects the ears, sinuses, throat, appetite and disposition. A dysfunctional nose can cause headaches, snoring, coughing, and asthma; the list goes on and on.
In the interest of full disclosure, Dr. Hana states in the beginning of her book that "this book is a plea, a pitch, an argument, even a nag in favor of daily nose washing." Clearing the Air,One Nose at a Time begins by running through the functions of an organ which not only draws in and filters oxygen for the lungs but plays a key role in the most enjoyable parts of life. Sexuality, the taste of our favorite foods, the storehouse of memories which smells can invoke in a millisecond and our moods are all regulated by this amazing olfactory sense, we should not neglect our noses.
Dr. Hana shares 20 years of common sense lessons learned during her medical practice in the second half of the book. The Seasoned Schnoozz, Ear and Hearing Issues, Snoring, Sinusitis, Allergies, Nasal Polyps and of course, Children"s Noses, are just a few. Ailments originating in the nose are reviewed and natural approaches are suggested in simple language. This book is a must read for anyone with a nasal woes. Dr Hana is the "snotty nose expert". "I have spent my life in children's noses and I was thrilled to read this book! Dr. Hana has grasped what all caretakers need to know to provide optimal care of both children and adults. The nose is a phenomenally central organ whose influence spreads dramatically to cause or extend diseases well beyond the nose itself. Understanding the nose is vital to understanding health. This book should be mandatory reading for primary care doctors and nurses. It is extremely beneficial to patients as well. Dr. Hana has grasped what so few have fully realized: the nose is a critical structure that greatly influences wellness and illness throughout the body. If you are a person with a suffering nose, you need to read this book!"
