How would you like to look and feel ten years younger in just ten weeks time? Studies show that Americans on the whole are aging faster than ever with conditions like diabetes, cancer, and heart disease occurring increasingly earlier on in life--along with everyday age indicators like wrinkles and love handles. Now, Dr. Steven Masley, former medical director of the prestigious Pritikin Longevity CenterĀ® and a pioneer in anti-aging medicine, delivers a breakthrough plan to turn back the clock, inside and out--no matter what your age! Originally featured on the Discovery Channel, the Ten Years Younger Program is designed to combat the roots of accelerated aging. Poor nutrition, toxins in the environment, stress, and exposure to free radicals all make us old before our time, along with a little-known aging culprit: low- and no-carb diets. As Dr. Masley shows, low-carb diets deprive the body of anti-aging phytonutrients and fiber, accelerate osteoporosis, and damage brain cells. So the first secret of turning back time is: Eat your carbs! Each week, Ten Years Younger guides you through an age-busting combination of cutting-edge nutritional choices, relaxation techniques to reduce the aging effects of stress, and simple workouts designed to build lean muscle and trim and tone your body from head to toe. By following the plan for just ten weeks, you will: * Achieve significant weight loss--up to twenty-five pounds * Boost your energy levels * Rejuvenate your skin * Enhance brain function * Prevent and reverse the onset of diabetes and heart disease * Lower your cholesterol and blood pressure * Improve sexual vitality With tools to help you assess how your body is really aging, weekly shopping lists and meal plans, and over 100 delicious recipes packed with antioxidants and anti-aging nutrients, Ten Years Younger is the healthiest, safest, and fastest way to take off the years--no surgery required!

Excellent book - an easy to understand fool proof program to improve your life. I consider the negative comments made by reviewers to be actually positive. Nothing new here indeed - just proven good advice supported by well regarded scientific studies concerning diet and exercise. There is no miracle cure or groundbreaking advice offered in this book - just tried and true sound advice.
