April 11, 2008 - Indianapolis, IN — Consumer health information website secondopinion.org recently launched a new series of radically different programs designed to tackle common health and wellness issues in uncommon ways. The programs—called ‘Lifebooks’— provide the latest health information, diet and exercise support, and a supply of nutritional support products designed to take on common ailments from a whole new angle. The first Lifebook in the series aggressively takes on Arthritis.
“We’re trying to provide our site users with exclusive packages of information and nutrition that they won’t find anywhere else,” said Dr. Shawn R. Benzinger, noted Indianapolis physician and founder of Secondopinion.org with Dr. Benzinger on Health. “The Lifebook series tackles tough issues head on and features a Lifebook plan booklet, plus a full complement of nutritional support products tailored specifically for individual health issues.”
With baby boomers hitting their retirement years, the choice to target Arthritis as the first in the series was a logical first step. Arthritis is a blanket term for a group of medical conditions involving damage to the joints of the body, and is one of the leading causes of disability in people over age 55.
“Lifebook for Arthritis is designed to meet the needs of people facing arthritis challenges—plain and simple,” Dr. Benzinger added. “We’ve put together the latest research information and married it with a complete plan that targets five critical factors contributing to wellness: diet, exercise, pain relief, lifestyle choices and nutritional support.”
Second Opinion Marketing Manager Debra Yuska added, “Dr. Benzinger has treated hundreds of people who have tried one thing or another, not realizing that any single change may or may not yield success. With conditions like Arthritis for example, numerous factors contribute to the problem. That means the solution is often multi-dimensional—it must target the whole body systematically. That’s what the five-step Lifebook plan is all about.”
New additions to the Lifebook series will be launched periodically on the website, and will provide comprehensive support for common medical ailments.
“Ultimately, we’re trying to create a whole new way of looking at life—as an arthritis sufferer, or as a person suffering from any number of conditions,” said Dr. Benzinger. “That’s always been the goal of Second Opinion—finding new ways to give everyday people the information and tools they need to take control of their health and wellness future.”
