New Schwarzbein book out soon
 

I was just on Amazon.com and noticed that they've got a new Schwarzbein book listed, to be published soon. Just thought you might be interested. Here are some of the details:

The Schwarzbein Principle II: The Next Step on the Metabolic Continuum

Book Description
This follow-up book to the 250,000-copy best-seller The Schwarzbein Principle shows people how to stop accelerated aging.

In her very successful book, The Schwarzbein Principle, renowned endocrinologist Diana Schwarzbein introduced her scientifically proven conclusion that degenerative diseases are not genetic, but acquired.

Many studies have supported this, proving that life expectancy is 75 to 90 percent due to habits and only 10 to 25 percent due to genetics. This means that someone who is genetically destined to die at age 100 may not live past age 60 because of poor habits and lifestyle choices that cause accelerated aging and premature death. Conversely, a person can live to 100 and be functionally healthy.

In this highly anticipated follow-up, Diana Schwarzbein, M.D., goes beyond the diet she introduced in her first book-which literally helped thousands of people lose weight-and offers a personalized anti-aging program for readers to heal their metabolisms and stop advanced aging in its tracks.

Weaving in groundbreaking research and provocative case studies-including her own regeneration and that of her clients-she will lead you through a series of eye-opening questionnaires, which identify where you are on your path to either accelerated or healthy aging.

Based your answers, she leads you to the "how-to" sections, which explain, in easy-to-follow and personalized detail, the steps you need to take to restore healthy functioning. For each unique situation, she covers five areas: Nutrition, Hormone Replacement Therapy (if needed), Tapering Off Toxic Chemicals or Avoiding Them Completely, Cross-Training Exercises and Stress Management.

The Schwarzbein Principle II is sure to follow the success of the first book and will help people live a more healthful lifestyle by embracing a regeneration process to prevent and reverse accelerated aging.

Can't wait to read it!!
 

Thanks for sharing, Melinda. At my age, mid-fifties, I am already experiencing some of the down side of bad habits. Eating low carb is more than just a food program, it is a program for our total health.

I'll be on the lookout for the book. :p

Also anxiously awating the book
 

I have mine pre-ordered from amazon. and am looking forward to it.

Thanks Melinda for the information!

First time I've heard of this!
 

Sounds great! I did a little quiz in a pamphlet I picked up in the health food store awhile back. When I tallied the results it said my biological age was 34, which is 3 years younger than my actual age! :) I hope the new Schwarzbein book will help me improve even further. I'll be ordering a copy on my next trip to the bookstore.

Thanks for the info Melinda!

I'm looking forward to this book too. The first one was great. She does an excellent job of explaining why you need fat and why low-fat diets are dangerous. Her explanations of internal cholesterol production vs. dietary consumption of cholesterol were enlightening too.

Ultimately, I'd like to try her plan but I have far too much weight to lose and all that organic stuff gets expensive. Maybe when I'm in maintainence.
