For the more than fifty million people who suffer from chronic pain, the mainstream medical approach to pain management has followed the same formula. Too often, treatment plans prioritize pills and procedures that can sometimes do more harm than good.

Now, in How Not to Hurt , bestselling author and founder of NutritionFacts. org Dr. Michael Greger uncovers noninvasive, nonpharmacologic interventions proven in randomized, controlled research trials to relieve pain-treatments that might otherwise have remained in obscurity due to a lack of profitability.

In his deep dives into health conditions ranging from osteoarthritis and back pain to migraines and fibromyalgia, he explains the surprising ways that pain works in the body, covering overlooked sources of inflammation, why some common over-the-counter drugs like ibuprofen may lead to chronic pain, and how many mainstream pain management approaches fly in the face of the available evidence.

Full of practical strategies backed by cutting-edge research, How Not to Hurt uncovers every scientifically proven intervention to help readers improve the quality of their lives and even live pain-free.
