Average people—you and me—just can't go vegan, give up bread, contort our metabolism, or become cave dwellers.
And it's time to admit that counting calories takes too much effort and never works for very long.
I wanted to lose weight, but more than anything, I needed to feel better, healthier, and happier.
So, I built a holistic nutrition plan applying what I had learned in my graduate studies in biochemistry and physiology:
systems that grow, repair, and maintain cells and organs are just too complex to be addressed by single-target solutions.
You can't achieve health by distilling what's in grapes or pomegranates, exotic herbs, or common spices.
Nutritional Leverage is a natural eating plan melded with a practical lifestyle for people who enjoy vacation buffets, evening cocktails,
and Sunday barbecues ...and in between... have the willpower to greatly improve their quality of life.
Whether you wish to lose weight, build muscle, reverse the aging process, eliminate chronic disease, get off medications,
or just live longer and healthier, all objectives are leveraged by nutrition.
I took the steep road and lost 50 lbs in 5 months. It wasn't easy, but it was worth it. There's a gentler slope, too. This book shows both paths.
