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

Excellent!
I thoroughly enjoyed the first round of listening to this very informative and educational lecture series and I'm still learning more every time I repeat the series. It is a wealth of information and Dr. Hyman spells things out in both medical and layman terms, providing plenty of real life examples to give the information perspective. This is a series that anyone with an open mind and desire to improve their health will benefit from.

Everything but the kitchen sink on Nutrition!
I can't get enough of Dr. Hyman. I loved Ultraprevention, Ultrametabolism and now the Five Forces of Wellness. I tried the elimination diet he recommends and feel fantastic.

I dicovered I have a problem with digesting gluten. I feel so much better after elminating gluten from my diet. My kids are now gluten-free and are doing better in so many ways. I believe gluten should not be allowed in our food supply.

After listening to Dr. Hyman, I discovered my Thyroid levels were actually undesirable. The lab was using old information so my physician assumed my thyroid was fine. The ideal range for your TSH is between 1 & 2. Celiac Disease ( a gluten intolerance) can lead to thyroid problems. If I had eliminated gluten sooner, I probably wouldn't have a thyroid problem now.

Changed my life!
These audio cd's are fantastic. I listen to them in the car and find myself wishing for traffic (so the ride lasts longer). I definately look at my health differently. It has really inspired me to take control of my families health and nutrition.
