Alisa Vitti found herself suffering through the symptoms of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), and was able to heal herself through food and lifestyle changes. Relieved and reborn, she made it her mission to empower other women to be able to do the same. As she says, 'Hormones affect everything. Have you ever struggled with acne, oily hair, dandruff, dry skin, cramps, headaches, irritability, exhaustion, constipation, irregular cycles, heavy bleeding, clotting, shedding hair, weight gain, anxiety, insomnia, infertility, lowered sex drive, or bizarre food cravings and felt like your body was just irrational?' With this breadth of symptoms, improving hormonal health is a goal for women at every stage of their lives Alisa Vitti says that medication and anti-depressants aren't the only solutions. The thousands of women she has treated in her Manhattan clinic know the power of her process that focuses on uncovering your unique biological make up. Groundbreaking and informative, WomanCode educates women about hormone health in a way that's relevant and easy to understand. Bestselling author and women's health expert Christiane Northrup, who has called WomanCode the 'Our Bodies, Ourselves of this generation', provides an insightful foreword.
The bestselling author of The Kind Diet offers practical solutions for a healthier, more vibrant approach to new motherhood When did making babies get to be so hard? Infertility is on the rise globally, affecting as many as one in six couples. But instead of looking at diet and lifestyle as key factors, doctors are racing to pump their patients full of expensive and invasive fertility treatments. Once pregnant, women just accept that carrying a baby will be the gassy, swollen, irritable, sleepless nightmare that has become the new normal. Once their babies are born, they assume it will be just as challenging—from breastfeeding woes to screaming fits and constant trips to the doctor. It doesn’t have to be that way. In The Kind Mama, Alicia Silverstone shows that if we kick nasty foods that fight our bodies and replace them with nutrient-rocking “clean” foods that heal and nourish, we can create a more positive baby-making experience, from conception through the third trimester (and beyond). By encouraging basic diet and lifestyle modifications and drawing on wisdom from medical experts, friends, and her own experience, Silverstone has created a one-stop guide that empowers women to take charge of their fertility and pregnancy, and helps them to embark on a healthier, more vibrant path to parenthood.
During a career spanning more than two decades of helping people conceive over 20,000 babies, Dr. Robert Kiltz learned that for most people, the most important thing in this universe is creating life. Yet, all too often he witnessed the sad truth that Western medicine doesn't work on its own. The failure of Western medicine drove Dr. Kiltz to integrate approaches to health and wellbeing that treat the whole person, body, mind, and spirit, eventually leading him to a radical discovery that revolutionized his practice: The foundation of our health and wellbeing, and therefore our fertility, is actually the food we eat. Since learning the simple, yet radical truth that our bodies and brains are designed to run most optimally on high-quality animal fats, and that we don't need any carbohydrates whatsoever, Dr. Kiltz has successfully recommended his version of the ketogenic diet to countless patients who had previously been unable to conceive even with the combined aid of Western and alternative medicines. He has witnessed the power of keto to bring new life into this world, and experienced it transform his own life and the lives of his patients, friends, and colleagues. Taking inspiration from these experiences, Dr. Kiltz created Fertile Feast as an essential guide to cultivating the life force unleashed by keto. Weaving keto with principles of mindful living, Fertile Feast presents keto as the root mantra of wellbeing. "There are people who refer to keto as a diet, but to me, keto is a way of life. Fertile Feast is about much more than just what you put into your mouth. It's also about what you put into your mind, how you treat your body, how you feel about yourself, and how you challenge yourself to be kind, creative, and to connect with others in deep, joyous, and meaningful ways. I became a doctor for one reason, and that's to help people. Fertile Feast is my guide for awakening the hidden powers of body and spirit, leading to emotional and physical healing, and a fertile life of inspiration, clarity, and joy." -Dr. Robert Kiltz About the Author Dr. Robert Kiltz is Founder and Director of CNY Fertility, ranked among the top ten fertility centers in the nation, with over 300 employees, and chapters in six locations including New York state, Atlanta, and Montreal. Dr. Kiltz revolutionized the Fertility industry by providing full-service Healing Arts Centers where patients receive massage, acupuncture, and yoga instruction. This patient-centered approach extends to Dr. Kiltz's commitment to democratizing access to fertility treatments by making CNY the nation's most affordable fertility clinics. Each week thousands of viewers participate in Dr. Kiltz's Fertile Fireside Chats, broadcast live on Facebook, where he answers questions about fertility in real time, and shares his recommendations for a ketogenic lifestyle.
