A Singapore health guide by Dr Bina Kurup, a Singapore doctor is out in major bookstores. This health guide book is specially written for the laymen in Singapore. “Really Doc?!: Medical Myths, Facts and Tips aims to educate Singaporeans about common health misconceptions, signs and symptoms.
Do you know? “Is heatiness the cause of my frequent sore throats, ulcers or ‘bak-chiam’ (styes)?”
“Can being caught in the rain really cause headaches, joint pains or the cold?”
“Can too much sugar cause diabetes? Isn’t high blood pressure normal when you get old?”
“Does soya sauce really darken your scars?
Are chicken and seafood ‘tok’ (‘poison’) and bad for wound healing?”
This is a very practical health guide because there is a medical myth, condition, illness or symptom inside the book that each and everyone would have suffered at some point in time. This book also stands out from all medical guides because she has included common hokkien (a local dialect in Singapore) medical terms like ‘leng’ (cold in hokkien), ‘tok’ (poison), ‘hong sik’ (rheumatism) ‘juak ‘ (heaty ) etc . to explain medical conditions that many Singaporeans can understand.
The book is written in a clear and concised manner. The common health conditions are divided into acute, chronic and general problems. Acute conditions are generally those that are shortterm ailments, though some may be recurrent or be prolonged. For ease of discussion, they are grouped into three sections viz. Common Infections, Common Aches and Pains and First Aid Myths and Misconceptions. Chronic conditions are the long standing medical problems that require long-term follow up and care.
Also included are some of the commonest conditions, all of which have a significant impact on health and wellbeing. These include Hypertension, Diabetes and Asthma. Epilepsy is included, as not only is it common enough, but it is also amongst one of the frequently misunderstood conditions. Under the General section, this health guide covers some common misconceptions about Drugs in general and specific drug groups like antibiotics, steroids and supplements.
WIth 20 years as a family physician and she sought to correct the misconceptions and also provided tips for patient self care. She has decided to compile the commonly encountered misconceptions together with the correct information and also have provided tips for patient self care. This health guide is truly a labour of love.

We wish to congratulate our client, Mr Eric Alagan for launching his second novel titled Code Shield at the Singapore Writers Festival 2011. Mr Eric Alagan is also the author of three business books – “Staff Selection”, “Increase F&B Sales”, “Property Valuation” and the novel – “Beck and Call”. Rank Books is honored to be the publishing consultant for all five books written Mr Eric Alagan.
Eric Alagan is a rare talent when comes to book writing because he excels in both non-fiction and fiction genres. His non-fiction book, ‘Property Valuation” was on the Straits Times Bestseller List for 8 weeks. His latest novel, Code Shield has received very positive feedback. An Australian literary agent and manuscript assessor, Brian Cook described the book as “…an intriguing mix of drug-running…human trafficking, the flesh trade, political maneuvering and high-stakes power games, flavored with interesting characters and locations, and spiced with dangerous liaisons, secret deals and double crosses, and the sometimes deadly internecine jostling of international security agencies. Architecturally, Code Shield is superb…”.
Indeed, this is a superb book that has all the ingredients needed to make a blockbuster movie. Any aspiring Singapore movie director out there who is searching for that perfect script to make a James Bond kind of movie, must grab this gem. This is one book waiting to be transformed from book to movie. Here is a chance for a local movie director in Singapore to make it in Hollywood!
The book launched held at the Singapore Writers Festival 2011 was well attended by friends, writers and business associates. The Guest of Honour was Mr. K. Kesavapany, Director, Institute of South East Asian Studies and Ambassador to Jordan. Mr. Ramachandran, Director, from the National Book Development Council of Singapore was also a guest speaker at the launch.
Congratulations to Eric Alagan for his outstanding achievements!
