Can you make a resolution to live a healthier and happier life? These days, there’s no shortage of weight-loss programs or nutritional advice — media outlets are constantly releasing ‘late-breaking’ reports about dietary discoveries, many of which contradict previous recommendations. This makes it quite difficult for anyone to know what actions to take. But if you are middle aged, there’s an additional obstacle: Very little of what we read and hear is specifically geared to providing dietary and nutritional guidance for people age 50 and over. Yet, midlife is a time when natural physiological changes and the cumulative results of longstanding lifestyle habits demand that we rethink how we eat if we are to remain vital. This eBook from PBS and Next Avenue gathers advice and wisdom from blogs and articles written for nextavenue.org, a Web site designed for those in this new phase of life that we call Adult, Part 2. Next Avenue’s Fiftysomething Diet takes direct aim at the nutritional needs of those in the second stage of adulthood. Each chapter presents dietary suggestions that can maximize physical and cognitive wellness in the face of the normal bodily shifts and increased risk of disease that occur with age. Whether your goal is to shed pounds, boost energy, beat back dementia or generally maintain good health and a sense of well-being, The Fiftysomething Diet points the way.

So what are the fifties all about? You realize you know more dead people than ever before. You think you’re never too old to be cool, in shape and healthy. Not true! Some of you are already starting to look old, feel old and act old. How many years of quality life do you have left? The fifties may be the last period in your life that you will be able to reverse some of the damage you have done in past years. If you don’t do it now, it will be nearly impossible to do in the next decade. In ten years how many of your contemporaries will no longer be here? Is there a fountain of youth? Will your marriage survive? When does menopause start? How about andropause (the real name for male menopause)? Most guys don’t know it exists. They just decline and become that grumpy old man. Are there remedies for the hormonal decline that is inevitable in both men and women? You don’t want to exist with a life of chronic illness and misery. Join the small but smarter more diligent group of folks who are going to change their lives for the better by following the advice in Fifty Something. Observations, interviews and extensive research are employed to give the reader an unusual insight into the process of passing through the fifties. You can go it alone, or you can take a guide with you. You can keep Fifty Something on your night table and look up the things that are important to you as they are encountered, or you can go to sleep in the dark about your very existence. You decide. Because the second half of life really can be better than the first half. Fifty Something has answers.

His easy-to-follow, low-carb program leaves readers feeling full and satisfied, and includes an extensive follow-up plan for maintaining your weight. Through it all, Dr. Hunt takes the radical position that a person with obesity is not at fault and that losing weight and maintaining that loss is about more than just will power.
