This is a book that you'll want to share with your family, friends… and anyone else whose health you care about!

Are you tired of feeling worn out, sick, and overweight?

Why is it that we experience weight gain, fatigue, aches and pains, illnesses, and memory loss as we get older? And, more importantly, do we have to?

These ailments do become more common in our 30s and 40s, but they are by no means inevitable. In fact, we are perfectly capable of remaining slim and vigorous, and our brains can absolutely stay clear and sharp—if we give them what they need. The problem is that most of us don't do that. We don't realise what our bodies need, so we eat the wrong foods, skimp on sleep, and deprive our bodies of the movement they crave. Overwhelmed by the stresses and pressures of our lives, we take a host of prescriptions, never realising how they might be disrupting our body's innate ability to heal. Most insidious of all, many of us lack the personal support and the community that we need to feel fully alive. Instead, we buy into the myth that age means decline.

A pioneer and internationally recognised expert in integrative and functional medicine, Dr. Frank Lipman proves that you don't have to feel this way. You have a choice! In his latest book, Young and Slim for Life, Dr. Lipman breaks through the common myths and misconceptions surrounding ageing and dieting, and he zeroes in on what you need to do in order to feel your very best. His two-week Revitalise Programme brings together key information regarding insulin resistance and carbohydrate intolerance, gut and hormonal imbalances, sleep disorders, medications and supplements, and community support, and features:

  • delicious, nutritious recipes to support you along the way
  • handy shopping lists and meal plans
  • simple exercises, meditation practices, and restorative yoga sequences
  • information about powerful anti-aging and digestive supplements and vitamins and more!

Dr. Lipman also offers a lifelong Maintenance Programme, so that after two life-changing weeks, you can continue on your path toward ultimate health and wellness for years to come.

In just two weeks, you can feel so much better than you ever imagined!

This is a book that you'll want to share with your family, friends… and anyone else whose health you care about!
