The Protein Power Lifeplan
Author: Michael R. Eades, Mary Dan Eades

Which is better for you: Whole wheat or red meat? Magnesium supplements or vitamins with added iron? UV-protection sunglasses or spinach and broccoli? A salad with fat-free dressing or one with olive oil? Suncreen on a daily basis or light sunbathing without protection? THE TRUTH MAY SUPRISE YOU. The authors who defied conventional wisdom... more », turned the food pyramid upside down, and helped to vastly improve personal health continue to break the rules... A New York Times bestseller for over a year, Protein Power sparked provacative debate with its assertion that our mainly carbohydrate-based diet - and not one rich in protein - is responsible for rampant obesity and heart disease among Americans. Now the authors of this exciting guide expand both their theory and their nutritional program, and show how The Protein Power LifePlan can combat diabetes, high blood pressure, auto-immune disorder, and more. Whether you're a Protein Power veteran looking to fine-tune your dietary lifestype or increase your success, or a newcomer to the plan, astonishing health benefits can be yours with... The Protein Power LifePlan. Good health is in our birthright. Contrary to popular belief, our bodies were designed by nature to metabolize and thrive on protein and fat, and simply weren't built to handle today's typical diet of carbohydrates and processed foods. The authors have linked the rise in disease to our increasing reliance on the low-fat, high-carbohydrate diet that first appeared at the dinner table relatively late in human history. The keys to good health can be found by understanding how we evolved and by eating a diet typical of our ancestors', rich in protein and good fats and full of fruits and vegetables for the antioxident and cancer-fighting abilities. The Protein Power LifePlan offers: --A Three-Tiered Nutrition Plan designed for your level of commitment: the Hedonist, the Dilettante, or the Purist --The latest findings on Insulin Resistance: what it is, how to correct it, and why, once it is corrected, you will lose weight and avoid health problems associated with it. --Important information on supplements: vitamin E, alpha-lipoic acid, vitamin C, magnesium, chromium, and coenzyme Q10 --Tips for obtaining the optimum health benefits of natural sunlight --A look at the dangers of excess iron storage and how to determine if it is a problem for you --A primer on fat: learn which good-quality fats can reduce elevated cholesterol, lower triglycerides, and reduce the risk of heart disease - without medication --Meal plans, recipes, kitchen stocking advice, and more. The Protein Power LifePlan gives you a blueprint for not only losing weight and feeling fit, but one designed to restore your body's innate systematic approach to good health. Comprehensive thorough, and written for results, this book will help you look and feel better then you ever have in your life.
