Dr. Wilson explains that healthy functioning of your adrenal glands is essential to virtually all aspects of your health as well as to your ability to handle stress. For this reason, stress and adrenal function often also play a role in many health conditions, such as frequent infections, chemical sensitivities, allergies, autoimmune diseases like fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis, menopause and PMS, thyroid function imbalances, chronic fatigue syndrome, low libido, chronic anxiety, and mild depression. All of these problems and more may be aggravated by the effects stress can have on your adrenal glands.Under certain circumstances, stress can fatigue your adrenals. It is estimated that most North Americans experience some form of stress-related adrenal fatigue at some time. Although many people realize that stress is a problem in their lives, few understand the actual physical ways stress acts on the body and mind through the adrenal glands – or more importantly, what to do about it. Unfortunately, even most doctors still do not recognize the common health picture produced by adrenal fatigue. This leaves a lot of people suffering without anywhere to turn for help. That's where Adrenal Fatigue: The 21st Century Stress Syndrome comes in.In Adrenal Fatigue: The 21st Century Stress Syndrome, Dr. Wilson explains not only how stress affects your health but what you can do to un-fatigue your adrenals, protect your health and become more stress hardy. He has written this book in an entertaining, easy-to-follow style that is designed to guide you through everything you need to know about stress, adrenal fatigue and your health. It contains the questionnaire Dr. Wilson developed and used in his practice plus simple self-tests to help you determine if you are experiencing adrenal fatigue and how much it may be affecting you. Dozens of cartoons, illustrations, charts and fascinating case histories from Dr. Wilson's files make this book hard to put down. From beginning to end it will take you step-by-step to reclaim your life from the negative effects of stress.

GO FROM WIRED AND TIRED TO LEAN AND THRIVING…    Why are people gaining weight faster than ever before?  The idea that people simply eat too much is no longer supported by science.  The emerging idea is that weight gain is a survival response.  Our bodies are under attack from all directions—an overabundance of processed food, a polluted world, and the pressures of daily life all take their toll.  These attacks hit a little known but very important set of glands, the adrenals, particularly hard.    One of their many jobs is to maintain a normal cortisol rhythm (cortisol is a hormone associated with both stress and fat storage).  When this rhythm is off, we can become overwhelmed more quickly, fatigued, gain weight, and eventually, develop even more severe health issues such as heart disease or diabetes. Unsuspecting dieters cause more harm than good by reducing the number of calories or carbohydrates they consume, which can disrupt cortisol production and cause weight gain.     In The Adrenal Reset Diet, Dr. Alan Christianson provides a pioneering plan for optimal function of these small but powerful organs. His patient-tested weight-loss program is the culmination of decades of clinical experience and over 75,000 patient-care visits. In a study at his clinic, participants on the Adrenal Reset Diet reset their cortisol levels by over 50% while losing an average of over 2 inches off their waists and 9 pounds of weight in 30 days.  What can you expect?    • Learn whether your adrenals are Stressed, Wired and Tired, or Crashed and which adrenal tonics, exercises, and foods are best for you    • The clinically proven shakes, juices, and other delicious recipes, to use for your Reset    • New ways to turn off the triggers of weight gain with carbohydrate cycling, circadian repair, and simple breathing exercises    • An easy 7-day ARD eating plan to move your and your adrenals from Surviving to Thriving From the Hardcover edition.

As I read “The Ultra-mind Solution,” I was continuously reminded of a joke a friend and I used to tell in the 80’s anytime a certain commercial for a Home Remedy book would come on television: “Have cancer? Try a banana!” Only in this author’s case, it’s more like “Have autism? Try a glutten-free diet in combination with eliminating all sugar and caffeine and all food additives, and don’t get within two feet of mercury!” I almost hate to give this book such a low rating, because there is a great deal of good advice to be found within it. The problem is that the good advice is mixed up with so much misinformation, nutritional extremism, misapplication of statistics, self-promotion, and redundant writing that I cannot allow myself to increase the rating. I think this author makes a number of valid criticisms of the way we do medicine, particularly psychiatric medicine, today. But he ventures too far into the realm of pseudo-science and greatly discounts the value of pharmaceuticals. The primary problem is that there is no way to scientifically verify his assertions, since in his view the prescription varies so widely from person to person and involves a web of dietary, behavioral, and environmental changes that are entirely specific to the individual and that cannot heal the person’s mind-body problems unless made all in conjunction with each other. This is more like divination than science. (No wonder he charges his patients a $2,000 consulting fee--or so I've heard.) Despite Dr. Hyman's criticism of a one-size fits all approach to medicine (Have this disorder? Take this pill!), he takes the same approach to nutrition at times: EVERYONE should IMMEDIATELY eliminate “any form of sugar” from their diet. Really? Everyone? Immediately? ANY form? Yes, of course, for sugar is a “toxin.” Yes, it’s probably a good idea for just about everyone to reduce their intake of sugar to more moderate amounts. It’s not such a good idea to shout that the sky is falling and it’s made of toxins. Sometimes this guy is unintentionally funny, such as here: “So the next time you’re stressed out, think about how you’re killing your brain cells and take a deep breath.” Because whatever I was already worried about wasn’t enough…Hyman’s book includes a series of self-tests you can take to determine from which nutritional deficiencies you suffer (and these deficiencies are certainly causing any medical or psychiatric problems you may have). Then you can buy the supplements from which he profits to make up for those deficiencies. Here’s how a typical test goes (I’ve crafted this as a partial parody, but it’s not far from what he actually writes): VITAMIN BS QUIZ Check all that apply and then total your score. 1. I feel like I have more energy after I drink coffee. 2. I have autism, ADHD, depression, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, indigestion, allergies, asthma, PMS, frequent colds, OR headaches. 3. I drink three or more alcoholic beverages a week. 4. My nails are brittle or soft. 5. I feel tired in the morning when I wake up. 6. I sleep less than nine hours a night. 7. I want sex less often than I used to when I was young and it new and exciting 8. I drink tap water or bottled water. 0-2 points: You may have a mild BS deficiency. Follow my six-week program religiously. 2-4 points: You may have a moderate BS deficiency. Follow my six week program religiously and supplement with BS rich foods (outlined in Chapter 23) and the BS supplements I sell. 6+ points: You may have a severe BS deficiency. See your doctor and talk to him about my book and my supplements. If you didn’t already have a mental disorder, you might develop one thinking about how all those various “toxins” such as gluten and sugar and food additives you’ve been consuming for years are slowly killing you and trying to figure out which six or seven vitamins or nutrients you are deficient in and adding them to your diet and then figuring out what nine or ten foods or chemicals are contributing to your health and mental problems and then entirely eliminating them from your diet and environment. I mean, it’s hard enough dealing with a proven, tested nut allergy. Before I end this review, I’d like to leave you with a prime example of Dr. Hyman’s use of statistics. “Recent research has found that homicide mortality in the UK increased dramatically with the increase in concentration of linoleic acid from soy. The same thing happened in the U.S., Australia…” COME ON! Soy oil is responsible for the increased murder rate? I mean, I agree they put too much soy in everything (and, since my daughter has a soy allergy – a tested one, mind you – I’m well aware of how many things unnecessarily have soy in them), but, really – have you ever heard the adage “Correlation does not necessarily imply causation”? Might there have been one or two or three OTHER factors contributing to the increased murder rate, and isn’t it possible soil oil had, well, absolutely nothing to do with it? I think it may be time to give up on these health books. There is such a web of contradiction in the advice of doctors and nutritionists. Too much meat is killing you. Too little meat is killing you. Carbohydrates are bad. You need carbohydrates to feed your brain. Gluten is the source of all of our modern medical evils. You need more whole wheat in your diet. Soy is altering our hormones and causing problems. Soy is a great source of nutrition. Here’s all I know for sure: it’s better if I exercise more than I currently do and to eat fewer sweets and treats and fried foods.

Our great-grandmothers didn't need nutrition lessons—then again, they weren't forced to wade through aisle after aisle of packaged foods touting outlandish health claims and confusing marketing jargon.

We're disillusioned with the "conventional wisdom" for good reason—it's gotten us nowhere.Achieving optimal health without calorie-counting, diet foods, or feelings of deprivation has never been easier.

Even better—you may reduce or completely eliminate symptoms associated with common health disorders!Practical Paleo is jam-packed with over 120 easy recipes, all with special notes about common food allergens including nightshades and FODMAPs.

In his midtwenties, Dave Asprey was a successful Silicon Valley multimillionaire. He also weighed 300 pounds, despite the fact that he was doing what doctors recommended: eating 1,800 calories a day and working out 90 minutes a day, six times a week. When his excess fat started causing brain fog and food cravings sapped his energy and willpower, Asprey turned to the same hacking techniques that made his fortune to "hack" his own biology, investing more than $300,000 and 15 years to uncover what was hindering his energy, performance, appearance, and happiness. From private brain EEG facilities to remote monasteries in Tibet, through radioactive brain scans, blood chemistry work, nervous system testing, and more, he explored traditional and alternative technologies to reach his physical and mental prime. The result? The Bulletproof Diet, an anti-inflammatory program for hunger-free, rapid weight loss and peak performance. The Bulletproof Diet will challenge—and change—the way you think about weight loss and wellness. You will skip breakfast, stop counting calories, eat high levels of healthy saturated fat, work out and sleep less, and add smart supplements.In doing so, you'll gain energy, build lean muscle, and watch the pounds melt off. By ditching traditional "diet" thinking, Asprey went from being overweight and sick in his twenties to maintaining a 100-pound weight loss, increasing his IQ, and feeling better than ever in his forties. The Bulletproof Diet is your blueprint to a better life.

A noble effort, but in many ways just a "bound" version of an advertisement for the author's Integrative Nutrition institute in New York. I appreciate good advice in a book--that's why I buy the book; I don't appreciate the blatant attempt to sell yet another product besides the book. That's what newspapers & billboards are for. That said, three stars for the helpful advice to pay attention to one's cravings to observe from where in your body they actually stem; and another handful of small tips like that (that easily could've been condensed into a short pamphlet).

The Harvard-educated physician and New York Times bestselling author of The Hormone Cure shows you how to grow new receptors for your seven metabolic hormones, making you lose weight and feel great fast!When it comes to weight loss, most people don't think about hormones. But when you develop resistance to your seven major metabolic hormones--cortisol, thyroid, testosterone, growth hormone, leptin, insulin, and estrogen--your body adjusts by increasingly raising your hormone levels and ultimately slowing down your metabolism. And a slower metabolism leads to weight gain and difficulty losing weight. The solution, Dr. Sara Gottfried contends, is to reset the efficiency of your hormones by repairing and growing new hormone receptors.Based on leading scientific research, The Hormone Reset Diet is her proven weight loss and energy program to reverse hormone resistance in just three weeks. It will help you: Boost your metabolism and calorie burning by growing new and fresh thyroid receptors; Increase your weight loss by re-balancing estrogen and progesterone receptors; Reverse your aging by resetting glucocorticoid receptors (for better processing cortisol).For the last twenty years, this Harvard-MIT educated physician has helped thousands of women address the root hormonal causes of what bothers them most: excess weight, lack of energy, aging, and illness. Going beyond her bestselling The Hormone Cure, this program is the next generation of her deep understanding of hormonal optimization for rapid weight loss.

Sugar is taking over our lives. But why? And is it only those sweet, refined white crystals that are causing us problems, or could there be more to the story? Let's be honest: The problem isn't just sugar itself. It's the refined, nutrient-poor carbohydrates that carry tons of calories, but no real nutrition. In our world, these are the easiest foods to grab on the go, but they leave us fat, sick, tired, and downright unhappy. The effect that sugar, "hidden" carbs, and refined, processed foods have on our bodies goes far beyond our waistlines. We can't focus, we can't sleep, we have irrational mid-afternoon cravings, and we can't even make it through the day without wanting--or needing--to prop up our energy levels with caffeine or even more sugar! What can we do to break free from this cycle? "The 21-Day Sugar Detox" is here to help.
