It’sIrelandReadsDay so get lost in a book to improve health literacy.  I think we can agree: health literacy has never been more important for patients or families!

My 5 top recommendations for patients:

1. Anything by either Peter Hotez MD PhD or Paul Offit MD
2. “The Irrational Ape” by David Robert Grimes
3. What Every Woman Should Know about her Gut by The Gut Experts
4. “Living PCOS Free” by Nitu Bajekal and Rohini Bajekal
5. “The Heart Book” by Dr. Robert Kelly MD MBA
