The User's Manual For Your Body (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780648440871)

Your body is the most sophisticated thing in the Universe, and you should view it as your most treasured possession. But you did not arrive in this world with a user's manual that tells you how your body works, particularly in relation to the food you put into it, and what goes wrong when you do things differently to how you have evolved.

Two thirds of western society are either overweight or suffering from obesity. This is a potent source of unhappiness, extending in many to anxiety, stress and clinical depression. But there's also a significantly increased risk of serious diseases such as cancer, heart attacks, strokes, Alzheimer's disease, arthritis and diabetes. If you contract any of these there's a very good chance you will die prematurely.

Statistics show that what we are currently doing is clearly not working. And that's because people simply don't know or have been given the wrong information.

The User's Manual For Your Body provides in simple terms everything you need to know.
