If you are ready to press Reset - live lean clean and love your life, this guide is ideal for you! Rachel Christian is a wife, mother and Health Coach who also works alongside her husband in their family business. After several years of struggling with issues she attributed solely to being overweight, she happened upon what she describes as a 'life changing discovery' - that her weight struggle was a symptom of her overall health and that all of her weight loss efforts were counterproductive if her overall health was not first optimized. Passionate about wanting to help others who felt as disempowered as she did, Rachel studied at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition (IIN) and became a certified Health Coach. In observing the close relationship between Optimal Health and Goal Achievement in herself and among her clients, Rachel chose to add the title of Author to her resume with the publication of her first book - RESET- Living Clean and Loving it! In her own words, "RESET is my way of changing the misguided approach often taken toward weight loss. It is my way of showing gratitude to those who have taught me- to pay it forward and share with a wider audience the lessons I have learned, the knowledge I have gained and the results I have observed in so many others over such a short time."
#1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • “A landmark manifesto" (The New York Times) that's a revelatory, inspiring call to action and a blueprint for individual growth that will empower women around the world to achieve their full potential. In her famed TED talk, Sheryl Sandberg described how women unintentionally hold themselves back in their careers. Her talk, which has been viewed more than eleven million times, encouraged women to “sit at the table,” seek challenges, take risks, and pursue their goals with gusto. Lean In continues that conversation, combining personal anecdotes, hard data, and compelling research to change the conversation from what women can’t do to what they can. Sandberg, COO of Meta (previously called Facebook) from 2008-2022, provides practical advice on negotiation techniques, mentorship, and building a satisfying career. She describes specific steps women can take to combine professional achievement with personal fulfillment, and demonstrates how men can benefit by supporting women both in the workplace and at home.

You can dramatically reduce your risk of cancer, heart disease, and diabetes just by changing your diet. More than 30 years ago, nutrition researcher T. Colin Campbell and his team at Cornell, in partnership with teams in China and England, embarked upon the China Study, the most comprehensive study ever undertaken of the relationship between diet and the risk of developing disease.

Featuring brand new content, this heavily expanded edition of Colin and Tom's groundbreaking book includes the latest undeniable evidence of the power of a plant-based diet, plus updated information about the changing medical system and how patients stand to benefit from a surging interest in plant-based nutrition.

Drop The Fat Act & Live Lean employs the ''opposites approach'' to behavioral learning with a humorous, take - no - prisoners style of dialogue that can be more motivating than simple words of encouragement.

Knowing what ''not'' to is one of the keys to losing weight. Andrews also provides a new set of weight management skills, outlining the basics of healthy nutrition including how processed foods vs whole foods, animal vs plant - based diets and the speed they're consumed at all make a difference. Readers are shown that it's the ability to make good decisions on everyday choices that is the real formula to weight - loss success.
Dr. Joseph Scherger's career in family medicine has spanned 40 years. His training also included a Masters in Public Health where he studied nutrition at the University of Washington. He has always included preventive medicine and wellness in his medical practice. He is physically active with running, one of many choices for being in good shape. Until 2013 he followed the nutrition guidelines promoted by leading organizations such as the American Heart Association. In 2013 he expanded his knowledge in nutrition by reading the books of physician leaders such as William Davis and David Perlmutter. One of his partners in practice (and now his personal physician) Hessam Mahdavi introduced him to Functional Medicine, a focus on treating the causes of disease rather than just treating disease with drugs and procedures. Following this new knowledge and approach, Dr. Scherger greatly improved his own health and the health of many of his patients. This book is that story, loaded with information and scientific references that validate this exciting new approach to nutrition and good health. We live in a toxic food environment yet healthy foods are readily available. Dr. Scherger will help you make the choices that will result in your becoming lean and fit.
