Edward Rosick is an assistant professor in the MSU College of Osteopathic Medicine’s Department of Family and Community Medicine, but he’ll soon have the title of “scribe” on his business cards.

Rosick recently penned the book “Ultimate Prevention,” which takes a holistic look at preventing chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease and stroke. He hopes the book will be released this spring.

“There’s very little that mainstream medicine can do to treat those diseases,” Rosick said. “But there are things such as diet, exercise, meditation and supplements that possibly could help prevent those diseases.”

Rosick also is an expert and proponent of integrative medicine, which he describes as “the art and practice of dealing with patients by examining their whole mind-body-spirit interaction and using whatever appropriate methods are needed to achieve optimal health.”
