Bestselling author, columnist, and physician Mark Hyman, M.D., brings
us a science-based, easy-to-follow diet and nutritional plan in
UltraMetabolism: The Simple Plan for Automatic Weight Loss.
For many, losing weight is a never-ending struggle, especially since our
bodies are designed to keep weight on at all costs; it's a matter of
survival. But a medical revolution is under way, showing us how to work
with our bodies instead of against them to improve nutrition and
ignite the natural fat-burning furnaces that lie dormant within us.
Drawing on cutting-edge research about nutrigenomics--the science of how
food talks to our genes--Dr. Hyman, author of bestsellers including The
Blood Sugar Solution, The Ultra-Mind Solution, UltraPrevention, and
The UltraSimple Diet has created a method for losing weight by eating
the right foods to detox and manage food allergies.
Food contains information and instructions for our bodies: eat the right
foods and send instructions of weight loss and health; eat the wrong
foods and send messages of weight gain and disease. After spending the
last ten years conducting pioneering, hands-on research with over two
thousand patients at Canyon Ranch, one of the world's leading health
resorts, Dr. Hyman has discovered the seven fundamental causes of
obesity. He has integrated his years of research into this
groundbreaking approach to help you rebalance and stabilize your
metabolism to maintain weight loss and enjoy lifelong health.
This isn't a fad diet. Dr. Hyman explains how to customize your personal
health and weight-loss program with a streamlined eight-week plan
designed to help you lose weight based on your own unique genetic needs.
Menus, recipes, and shopping lists, as well as recommendations for
vitamins, supplements, and exercise will help you change your lifestyle
and be healthy for years to come.
