From AudioFile
Preventing or delaying the impairments of old age is the subject of this original audio program by a leading medical writer and alternative health practitioner. Hyman explains the five forces that slow down aging--overcoming malnutrition, reducing inflammation, improving metabolism, practicing detoxification, and lowering oxidative stress--with lucid examples from his medical practice and personal experience. He has a remarkable talent for offering empowering insights and lifestyle suggestions. With airtight rationales and assertive recommendations that anyone can implement, he earnestly delivers his ideas extemporaneously in fast-moving studio and seminar recordings. Listeners expecting a more relaxed or conversational lesson will have to adjust to his high-energy level. T.W. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Customer Reviews

I like Dr. Hyman's approach to good health
I consider myself to be fairly well informed on health and dietary topics but I did learn many new things from Dr. Hyman. I appreciated his sharing his own experience with mercury poisioning and stress. I am in the process of reading his other book, Ultrametabolism and have recommended his books to friends and family.

Wish I had this information 30 years ago
Dr. Hyman's Five Forces of Wellness is full of new information as well as reinforcing things we already knew. The presentation never is boring and my husband and I will listen to these tapes again for reinforcement of the ideas. We feel Dr. Hyman has given us the information we need to make the rest of our years healthier and therefore happier. My husband is 80 and I'm 72 and with this easy to follow health plan we hope to be around for quite some time.

Absolutely incredible! Information everyone needs to hear
This audio book is outstanding. I bought it and made copies for everyone I know because I feel the health and wellness information is SO useful and SO So SO vital. Do yourself a favor and check this out!
