The
Flip: Turn Your World Around
by David H. Rippe and Jared Rosen
The Flip reveals that tens of millions of people have already made
the choice to embrace the right-side up world. As a result, a stunning
change is underway: a major transformational shift from a broken,
outmoded paradigm where the natural world has been sacrificed for
convenience to an interconnected world where millions of people
value a holistic lifestyle of natural products, sustainable living
and spiritual transcendence.
The
Hundred-Year Lie: How Food and Medicine Are Destroying Your Health
by Randall Fitzgerald
This provocative and frightening look at the synthetic chemicals
used by the processed foods, pharmaceutical and chemical industries
delivers an excellent, up-to-date summary of "what is really
in our food, water, vitamins, prescription drugs, childhood vaccines,
cosmetics, and in our homes." Former Wall Street Journal investigative
journalist Fitzgerald (Mugged by the State) takes aim at the belief
that "lab-created synthetics are as benign as—and more
effective than—naturally occurring foods and medicines."
Younger
Next Year: A Guide to Living Like 50 Until You're 80 and Beyond
by Chris Crowley and Henry S. Lodge
Turn back your biological clock. A breakthrough book, Younger

the next five to ten years, and continue to live like fifty-year-olds
until well into their eighties. This is the real thing, a program
that will work for anyone who decides to apply himself to "Harry's
Rules." Welcome to the next third of your life— train
for it, and you'll have a ball.
Younger
Next Year For Women
by Chris Crowley and Henry S. Lodge
You're coming into the peak of your life. And because you’re
already more attuned to your physical and emotional needs, and more
inclined to commit to a healthier lifestyle, you're poised to live
brilliantly for the 30-plus years after menopause. All you need
now is the program outlined in Younger Next Year for Women
— which will help you avoid literally 70 percent of the decay
and eliminate 50 percent of the injuries and illnesses associated
with getting older. Drawn from disciplines as varied as evolutionary
biology, cell physiology, experimental psychology and anthropology,
the science behind Younger Next Year is clear.
The
Rice Diet Solution: The World-Famous Low-Sodium, Good-Carb, Detox
Diet for Quick and Lasting Weight Loss
by Kitty Gurkin Rosati and Robert Rosati
The Rice Diet Program in Durham, North Carolina, was one of the
first medical facilities in America to use diet as the primary way
to treat disease. On this high-complex-carb, low-fat, and low-sodium
whole-foods diet, "Ricers" lose weight faster, more safely,
and more effectively than people on any other diet. Men lose on
average twenty-eight to thirty pounds and women on average nineteen
to twenty pounds per month! The Rice Diet also detoxes your body,
ridding it of excess water weight and toxins from processed foods
and the environment. The program's results have been documented
by extensive studies; after all the other diets out there have failed
them, people find that the Rice Diet is the one that finally works
-- for good.
Natural
Highs: Supplements, Nutrition, and Mind-Body Techniques to Help
You Feel Good All the Time
by Hyla Cass and Patrick Holford
What does it take to make you feel "high"? Do you routinely
reach for caffeine, alcohol, cigarettes, or sugary snacks to get
you through the day? Unfortunately, these quick fixes don't work
long-term, and often contribute further to the underlying problems
of fatigue, depression, brain fog, and anxiety. In Natural Highs,
two leading authorities in psychology and nutrition present a prescriptive
breakthrough program based on nutritional supplements, herbs, and
simple mind-body therapies that will help to increase energy, sharpen
the mind, elevate mood, relax the body, and beat stress. They show
how to formulate the perfect "brainfood" to improve how
we think and feel, resulting in a greater sense of connection and
joy in everyday life-the natural high.
The
Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference
by Malcolm Gladwell
This celebrated New York Times bestseller — now
poised to reach an even wider audience in paperback — is a
book that is changing the way North Americans think about selling
products and disseminating ideas. Gladwell's new afterword to this
edition describes how readers can constructively apply the tipping
point principle in their own lives and work. Widely hailed as an
important work that offers not only a road map to business success
but also a profoundly encouraging approach to solving social problems.
