Trade Paperback

by Natasha Turner

Bestselling author and naturopathic doctor Natasha Turner is back, with a revolutionary discovery about individual sensitivities to carbohydrates. The Carb Sensitivity Program is a simple nutrition plan (with recipes!) that produces quick, consistent and lasting weight-loss results . Did you know that healthy foods such as sweet potatoes, black beans, or quinoa could be making you fat? Renowned health expert Dr. Natasha Turner has made a groundbreaking discovery that can help curb cravings, control appetite and beat belly fat in just six weeks. Her research and hundreds of patient trials have revealed that the vast majority of us have different degrees of sensitivity to carbohydrates without realizing it. This means the degree to which you are sensitive to carbohydrates (such as bread, vegetables, pasta, rice, fruits and beans) determines how much fat you are accumulating on your waistline. This explains why some people fail to lose weight, hit an unbreakable plateau or increase their weight even when they''re following a perfectly balanced diet. Something as simple as chickpeas could actually be a major contributor to weight gain! The Carb Sensitivity Program helps the reader discover the perfect carbohydrates for his or her body, and walk away with a personalized plan that sheds fat, increases energy and optimizes health by producing quick, consistent and lasting weight loss. With so many people in danger of heart disease, stroke and diabetes, there truly is not a single individual who would not benefit from this uncomplicated yet revolutionary discovery. See Details

Hardcover

by Ian K. Smith

Dr. Ian K. Smith''s Shred is the answer to every dieter''s biggest dilemmas: how to lose that last twenty pounds? How to push through that frustrating plateau? What to do when nothing else is working? Here, Smith has created a program that uses all he knows about strategic dieting in one plan--like putting all the best players on the field at once to create a can''t lose combination. Shred combines a low GI diet, meal spacing, and meal replacements. Those who follow Shred will constantly be eating (every three and a half hours!), four meals or meal replacements (soups, smoothies, shakes) and 3 snacks a day, over a six week program. Shred also introduces Dr. Ian''s concept of "Diet Confusion". Diet Confusion, like muscle confusion, tricks the body and revs up its performance. In the same way you need to vary your workout to see results, switch up your food intake to boost your metabolism. No matter how often or how unsuccessfully you''ve dieted before, Shred: The Revolutionary Diet will change your life. Shred has taken the internet by storm, and thousands have already joined Dr. Ian''s Shredder Nation, losing an average of four inches, two sizes or twenty pounds in six weeks. Utilizing the detox from Fat Smash Diet , the intense cleanse of Extreme Fat Smash , and varying food of The 4 Day Diet , Shred is a six week plan to a new way of life! See Details

Hardcover

by Chris Crowley

Flying in the face of our quick-fix culture, the New York Times bestselling Younger Next Year and its sequel, Younger Next Year for Women , crossed the 1,000,000-copy milestone by essentially telling readers to work out six days a week. Forever. This same honest, no shortcuts approach is woven into the DNA of Thinner This Year. Chris Crowley, the memorable patient and coauthor of Younger Next Year , partners with Jen Sacheck, a nutritionist and exercise physiologist from Tufts University, and in lively, alternating chapters they spell out a weight-loss plan that will have readers lose up to 25 pounds in the first six months-and keep it off for life. The message is straightforward and based on the most up-to-date nutritional science: Avoid "dead," i.e., nutrient-poor, foods, particularly the SOFAS (solid fats, added sugars) choices that comprise more than a third of our diet. Design your plate to be 50% vegetables and fruits, 25% whole grains, and 25% lean proteins. Skip the supplements. Never drink your calories. And exercise. Exercise, the authors emphasize, is the great flywheel of weight loss. And whereas Younger Next Year told you why to exercise six days a week- Thinner This Year tells you how to eat and how to exercise, from the best aerobic workouts to a lifetime supply of 25 whole-body strength exercises-the "Sacred 25"-that will build muscle, protect joints, and add mobility. Exercise will do more than anything else to put off 70% of "normal" aging until the very end and eliminate 50% of serious illness and injury. See Details

by Editors Of Good Housekeeping

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! "Follow this plan - it works!" says Dr. Mehmet Oz, Professor and Vice-chair of Surgery, NYP-Columbia Medical Center, and Host of The Dr. Oz Show. Look younger, stay slimmer, feel sexier...no matter what your age! This revolutionary plan to reverse the signs of aging kicks off with a 7-day Jumpstart plan offering all the tools you need to start your total rejuvenation. Then you''ll follow the 7-week, science-based program with a holistic approach to looking and feeling younger. Its 7 age erasers cover every base with special regimens for skin care, makeup, hair care, nutrition and diet, fitness, brain fitness, and emotional health. With this program you can "de-age" your skin, use makeup and hair smarts to get a youthful look, rehab your diet and exercise habits to lower your risk of age-related diseases and to lose weight, learn to sharpen your mind, and nurture your emotional health. You''ll be surprised at how much you can turn back the clock on your own-without stepping near a plastic surgeon''s office, or spending a fortune on expensive beauty products. The scientists at the Good Housekeeping Research Institute rigorously tested more than 400 beauty products and conducted more than 5,000 lab tests over the course of two years to find the anti-aging products that really work . Then ten test panelists went on the plan. The life-transforming results? One woman lost 12 pounds, another lost an amazing 10 inches from around her waist, and a third restored the glow and smoothness of her skin-improvements that were confirmed by scientific testing. Yet another tester emerged looking more glamorous than she''d looked since she first had kids. As one of the testers said , "There are a lot of diet and exercise programs out there on the market. And there are a lot of beauty tips you can get, but ''7 Years Younger'' has taken all of those things and put them into a one stop shopping experience for your overall beauty and health and mindset." "What''s great about the program," says Good Housekeeping editor in chief Rosemary Ellis, "is that you can treat it like a tool kit. You can pick and choose which elements of the program you want to focus on." See Details

Over 1 million copies sold With new exercises, additional stretches, and more of Frederic Delavier's signature illustrations, you'll gain a whole new understanding of how muscles perform during strength exercises. This one-of-a-kind best-seller combines the visual detail of top anatomy texts with the best of strength training advice. Many books explain what muscles are used during exercise, but no other resource brings the anatomy to life like "Strength Training Anatomy." Over 600 full-color illustrations reveal the primary muscles worked along with all the relevant surrounding structures, including bones, ligaments, tendons, and connective tissue. Like having an X-ray for each exercise, the anatomical depictions show both superficial and deep layers and detail how various setup positions affect muscle recruitment and emphasize underlying structures. New pages show common strength training injuries in a fascinating light and offer precautions to help you exercise safely. Author and illustrator Frederic Delavier is the former editor in chief of the French publication "PowerMag." He is a journalist for "Le Monde du Muscle" and a contributor to "Men's Health Germany" and several other strength training publications. See Details

Hardcover

by Tosca Reno

Millions of people struggle with weight issues every day, trying different diets, exercise regimens, and outrageous tactics to help shed excess pounds. But drastic changes in diet and behavior are difficult to sustain and are rarely successful in the long term. In The Simple Diet, Tosca Reno, the internationally renowned creator of the Eat-Clean Diet, delivers an exciting plan to gently lose your problem pounds without a big lifestyle change. It’s a plan that is not time-consuming, encourages you to eat often, and quickly resets your body so you know when you’re hungry and when you’re full. If you’re tired of seeing your weight yo-yo, if you’ve struggled with the time and energy commitments of rigorous diet and exercise programs, if you want to make a lasting change to your lifestyle but don’t know where to begin, The Simple Diet is the perfect place to start. In three steps, you will come to a completely new relationship with food and fitness—one that fits easily into your real life. Here is how it works: Self Steps: With each self step, you will come closer to overcoming the internal barriers that keep you from achieving your health and weight loss goals. Remove Your Hidden Food: The Simple Diet does not require sacrifices; instead, you will disentangle yourself from the eating habits that are sabotaging your life, learn how to create a balance in your life, and find other foods that are just as satisfying and delicious. Move a Little: Fitness is not about spending hours a day doing hard exercise. Tosca Reno provides over 50 little movements that you can integrate into your everyday routine that will allow you to strengthen, tone, and improve your overall body health . . . without changing a single thing about your day. The Simple Diet is designed to help you lose weight safely and gently, without asking you to make lifestyle changes that you are not prepared to make. Little changes that you integrate into your daily life can and will have a profound impact on the health and fitness of any dieter even more powerfully than drastic measures. In three easy steps, you can start feeling remarkably better in as little as two weeks—no matter how many problem pounds you have to lose. Tosca has created a gentle dieting plan that can work for absolutely anyone. It’s that simple. *** The Three Easy Steps of The Simple Diet! Self Steps: Many diets begin by asking you to identify your goals, such as the number of pounds you want to lose. But Tosca Reno’s strategy is different: before you even begin to think about food, she wants you to focus on what’s behind your desire to lose weight. No diet will ever be successful if you don’t reclaim that place inside you, a place that is so often wrapped in pain, discomfort, shame, and fear. With each self step, you will come closer to overcoming the internal barriers that keep you from achieving your health and weight loss goals. Remove Your Hidden Foods: Call them comfort foods, guilty pleasures, or daily treats—everyone has at least one hidden food that is likely sabotaging their weight loss efforts. It could be chocolate, peanut butter, cheese, or even soda! Tosca Reno will show you how to identify what your hidden food is (and there may be more than one), understand why it or they are at the root of your weight problem, and help you to remove the problematic foods easily without feeling deprived. The Simple Diet does not require sacrifices; instead, you will learn how to create a better balance in your life, find other foods that are just as satisfying and delicious, and disentangle yourself from the eating habits that are sabotaging your life. Move a Little: Exercise and fitness are not only about going to the gym or spending hours a day sweating up a storm. In this part of the program, you will learn how to incorporate little movements into your everyday life that will help boost your metabolism and strengthen your body. Sitting in a chair all day? Have to clean up around the house? Tosca Reno offers suggestions for over 50 little movements that you can integrate into your everyday routine that will allow you to strengthen, tone, and improve your overall body health . . . without changing a single thing about your day.

Trade Paperback

by Bryce Wylde

The value of living healthily is indisputable, but what exactly can we do in our daily lives to be our healthiest self? In his new book, Bryce Wylde sets out to answer that question. He sorts out the confusing terminology used to describe natural medicine and leads us through a process of discovery about our own real state of health by showing how state-of-the-art self-testing now permits us to properly assess where we''re vulnerable and where we''re not. Whether you are worried about a vitamin deficiency or wonder if you''re lacking the "feel good" brain hormone serotonin -- or even if you just want to ensure you''re not wasting your money on supplements -- you''ll learn what simple steps to take to test yourself. Wylde surveys and individually rates an array of present-day natural remedies from a no-nonsense, evidence-based perspective. He takes us on a guided tour of today''s hottest health trends, highlighting what is good and steering us away from what is dubious (or outright snake oil). Underlying Wylde''s ratings is the very latest research -- and he makes it clear that in the face of the astronomical rise in disease and the ubiquity of nutrient-devoid foods, we have no choice but to supplement our diets with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants if we want to live to our fullest potential. Finally, Wylde on Health explores how we will increasingly use the strategic supplementation he recommends to redress genetic predispositions -- the future of preventative health care. See Details

Trade Paperback

by Mikki Reilly

Your Primal Body is a book that will transform how you think about your body. Not just another fitness/weight-loss book, Your Primal Body shifts the paradigm for how to achieve a lean, muscular, vibrantly healthy body according to your genetic inheritance. This is the same body your Stone Age ancestors had, expressed through the human genome that evolved over a period of 2.6 million years. It’s the body you too can have when you learn how to follow ancestral dietary and activity habits in your 21st century life. Scientists studying the remains of early humans tell us how our ancestors were in far better shape than we modern humans, their bodies free of disease and painful conditions. Natural adaptation and selection occurred over millions of years when they lived in caves, hunted wild game, and foraged for plants and berries to survive—a way of life very different than ours today. But one thing has not changed: our DNA. The human genome has evolved so slowly that our genetic blueprint is almost exactly what it was 40,000 years ago when our ancestors still hunted and gathered their food. Lifestyles may have changed, but our modern bodies are no different in their basic DNA—a startling fact that revolutionizes how we think about and approach diet and exercise. The thesis of Your Primal Body is that we modern humans can follow the diet and activity patterns of our Paleolithic hunter-gatherer ancestors for optimal health and weight-loss. When you do eat and move as they did, you are healthier, more muscular, leaner, and pain-free; when you don’t, you run into trouble. The “diseases of civilization”—heart disease, diabetes, cancer, obesity, arthritis, to name a few, are all linked by researchers who study health and longevity to sedentary lifestyles and eating habits. Eating highly processed food and performing minimal activity, you become susceptible to the health problems that plague our modern society—none of which our ancestors had. In this book, you will read the argument for switching to a more “primal” way of life and how it is scientifically valid, based in the latest research done by exercise physiologists, evolutionary fitness theorists, and scientists in university laboratories. Your Primal Body goes beyond theory and science to give you a practical plan for implementing primal fitness into your modern lifestyle. In Mikki Reilly''s 5 Step Primal Body Program , central to the book, she shares her 20 years of experience in training people from all walks of life about how to lose weight, become fit, stay healthy, and condition their body for athletics. Reilly''s clients span a range of ages, from 18 to 74, and the book includes their inspiring stories, along with their “before and after” pictures, placed throughout the text to illustrate the book''s points and instructions. Their stories are not fictional composites but actual words of people who got the results they wanted from “going primal,” telling exactly how they did it. The Primal Body approach is not a quick-fix, but a complete overhaul in habits that have been stopping people from taking advantage of their natural inheritance, a fit and healthy body for life.

Hardcover

by Dr. Mike Moreno

“We’ve all pledged, promised and bullied ourselves to eat better and exercise more, but so many times even the best intentions fall short. I incorporate healthy habits into my work and home life and you can too.” –Dr. Mike Moreno If you need to shed pounds fast and in a safe, effective, and lasting way, this is the book for you! Unlike many diet programs that starve you down to size, Dr. Mike Moreno’s 17 Day Diet relies on proven methods to help you take weight off and keep it off for good—whether you’ve got 10 pounds to lose or 100. His revolutionary program adjusts your body metabolically so that you burn fat day in and day out. The program is structured around four 17 day cycles: Accelerate —the rapid weight loss portion that helps flush sugar and fat storage from your system Activate —the metabolic restart portion with alternating low and high calorie days to help shed body fat Achieve —this phase is about learning to control portions and introducing new fitness routines Arrive —a combination of the first three cycles to keep good habits up for good. On weekends, enjoy your favorite foods! Each cycle changes your calorie count and the food that you’re eating. The variation that Dr. Mike calls ‘body confusion’ keeps your metabolism guessing; this means that you can expect big changes in the first 17 days alone! This is not a diet that relies on a tiny list of approved foods, grueling exercise routines, or unrealistic calorie counts that leave you hungry and unfulfilled. Moderation and proper portions are key factors in the 17 Day Diet—the trick is to figure out the foods and routines that work best with your real lifestyle. That’s why the book is filled with tips for how to avoid the usual food pitfalls like holidays, eating out, or even just a tempting candy jar. Along with a comprehensive explanation of how each segment works, every phase comes with an extensive list of foods, recipes, and sample meal plans to help make grocery shopping a breeze. Because of the diversity that you are allowed from the very beginning of the program, there is a way to make this diet work with almost any food allergies you might have or what cuisine you’re used to eating. The 17 Day Diet is a simple plan that gets big, long-lasting results if you stick with it and let Dr. Mike help you along the way. Whether this is your first attempt at dieting or your fiftieth, you must believe that you can do this. What matters now is focusing on your goals, identifying what you need to get there, and taking action to begin the process. Your health and happiness are important, so stand strong, believe in yourself, and let your 17 Day Diet begin now! Dr. Michael Rafael Moreno , better known as “Dr. Mike,” is a graduate of the University of California at Irvine and Hahnemann Medical School (now Drexel University). Following his residency at Kaiser Permanente in Fontana, California, Dr. Mike moved to San Diego, where he now practices family medicine and sits on the board of the San Diego Chapter of the American Academy of Family Physicians. In 2008, Dr. Mike launched “Walk with Your Doc,” which he participates in every Tuesday and Thursday morning before his workday begins. The program began when Dr. Mike offered to walk with a patient to motivate her to exercise and has since grown into a thriving community Dr. Mike takes pride in being viewed not only as a doctor, but also as a friend and confidant.
