Eat Right 4 Your Type order quantity

NZ$ 30.00 each
Paperback
Author: Peter D'Adamo & Catherine Whitney
In Stock: 2
Have diets you've tried in the past failed or even been counter-productive? Are you sure your diet is right for your type of metabolism? After decades of laboratory and clinical research it has now been established that your blood type is the key to losing weight, avoiding disease and promoting longevity, fitness and even happiness. Your blood type determines your metabolism which means that it also determines which foods you should eat - one man's meat is another man's poison; one woman's weight-loss is another woman's dieting disaster; low-fat or high-fibre diets work for some blood types but not others. The Eat Right Diet enables you to zero in on the health and nutritional information that corresponds to your exact biological profile, so that you can make choices based on the powerful natural forces within your own body. The book contains a seperate diet plan for each type, complete with charts and diagrams.

Dr Joshi's craving-free detox attracts stars and supermodels from all over the world to his Wimpole Street clinic. Now, he reveals the secret of his metabolic detox dieting plan and explains how it has transformed the lives and health of celebrities such as Kate Moss, Cate Blanchett and Gwyneth Paltrow. Based on avoiding foods that are refined, acidic and toxic such as wheat, potatoes, red meat, alcohol and dairy produce, the idea is to alter the PH balance of the body from acid to alkaline - flushing toxins from the system, restoring energy levels and losing weight.
