Excess weight contributes to 14 percent of all cancer deaths in men in the United States and 20 percent in women according to a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
Researchers have also found that obesity can cut up to 20 years off a person’s life and excess weight can lead to heart disease, stroke and diabetes. In light of these findings, and the widely known fact that two-thirds of all Americans are at least 10 pounds overweight, Bottom Line offers some practical suggestions for successful weight loss.
Bottom Line Personal October 1, 2003
Normalizing your weight can add years to your life and more vitality to your years. Of course, this is something that most people already knew.
However, in my experience it is not the adding of years to your life that motivates people to change. Most people want to normalize their weight because of a desire to feel and look better right now.
Fortunately, when you follow the nutrition plan, and individualize it with metabolic typing, this occurs almost immediately.
For most, the problem is too many grains and sugars in the diet. No matter what nutritional type you are, if you are overweight you will need to discontinue eating all grains and sugars until you normalize your weight.
The bottom line is that you can take control of your health, and you can achieve a healthy weight and ultimately a more healthy life. What’s more is that now you can preorder the "masterwork" of my entire dietary and lifestyle program--Dr. Mercola's Total Health Program: 150 Delicious Grain-Free Recipes & The Proven Plan to Prevent Disease, Optimize Weight and Live Longer--to help you do just that.
This book is the culmination of my last 20 years of work, and everything, from A to Z, is included. You will get everything you need to know to prevent disease, optimize weight, look younger, feel better, and live longer. Plus, it will provide you with the ability to assess your general nutritional type and give you a full plan to start eating the right macronutrients--proteins, carbs and fats--for your type.
Also included in the book are 150 delicious and original grain-free recipes for all types of meals, created by a nutrition expert in collaboration with my program.
The program in the book will leave you feeling healthier, full of energy, free of illness, and more upbeat throughout the day, and if you preorder it now it will be shipped beginning in the last week of December, just in time to start your New Year right.
