"Shanahan examined diets around the world known to help people live longer, healthier lives--diets like the Mediterranean, Okinawa, and 'Blue Zone'--and identified the four common nutritional habits, developed over millennia, that unfailingly produce strong, healthy, intelligent children, and active, vital elders, generation after generation. Dr. Cate shows how all calories are not created equal; food is information that directs our cellular growth. Our family history does not determine our destiny: what you eat and how you live can alter your DNA in ways that affect your health and the health of your future children. She offers a prescriptive plan for how anyone can begin eating The Human Diet."--

A science-based plan that brings together cutting-edge, university-tested weight-loss strategies with delicious, quick, and easy recipes. "Almost everyone knows the truth: to lose the weight, we need to eat less and move more," says weight-management pioneer Jean Harvey-Berino. "This book is about the missing link: how to do it." Harvey-Berino believes that permanent weight loss only happens by changing everyday behaviors: replacing old, unhealthy habits with new ones. And clinical research proves her right: participants in her behaviorally based VTrim™ Weight Management Program lost an average of 21 pounds in 6 months—more than double that of an online commercial weight-loss program. In a unique collaboration, The EatingWell Diet brings you the tools that helped "VTrimmers" succeed—including goal-setting, self-tracking, and controlling eating "triggers"—along with wisdom and recipes from the creative cooks and nutrition experts at the nation's premier magazine of food and health. More than just a sensible way to lose weight, it's a workbook for a healthy way of life.

What do unrelated diseases such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s disease, obesity, asthma, depression, premature aging and an army of diseases ending with ‘it is’ such as gastritis, sinusitis, arthritis, have in common? Answer: The buzz word called inflammation. “Inflammation may well turn out to be the exclusive Holy Grail of medicine- the single phenomenon that holds the key to sickness & health,” firmly says Joel Meggs, author of The Inflammation Cure. Silent Inflammation falls just below the radar of pain & visible swelling. It is akin to living with a volcano inside you. Even though you are feeling well and on top of the world right now, odds are that silent inflammation can be simmering in your body. Like a slow poison, silent inflammation can gradually destroy your body organs & tissues without you feeling it until a chronic disease surfaces in the form of diabetes, heart disease or even cancer that may prove fatal. I challenge you today to make a decision to reduce silent inflammation in your body if you want to move towards wellness as every pain, every chronic disease and every pound of weight gained in your body revolves around silent inflammation. Control it and you will feel better, look better, think better and perform better. This is what this book is about.

Shifting to another topic-attention deficit disorder-learn what nutrients and essential fatty acids help to manage attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Can you write about or debate issues and controversies on the health benefits of phytocompounds? Examples of phytocompounds include quercetin and resveratrol.

Learn to define these terms to the general public in popular consumer magazines. Write news articles, organize debates, manage your term papers based upon the credibility of studies mentioning health benefits. Avoid food misinformation in the media. How do you explain the reduced cardiovascular risk and similar benefits of the latest nutrition-related research?
