A Great Place to Start,

This review is from: The Mayo Clinic Plan: 10 Steps to a Healthier Life for EveryBody! (Hardcover)
Mayo Clinic has produced a book that is a great place to start for learning about a healthy lifestyle. It has helpful quizzes to assess your health in different areas. I wish it had more depth; that is why I can only give it four stars. It lays a good foundation, but leaves you wishing for more details.
