Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing.I found this to be a comprehensive book on the subject stated in the title. I appreciate that within each chapter are digestible bits of information headlined & organized as the terminology can get a bit heavy. I was delighted to find that the meal plans do give guidance for Gluten-Free options. The 'Caveat,' section was refreshing & succinct. . .you know you, so do what feels best overall. This is certainly a book that I would recommend to my friends & family.
Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing.This was a real epic ... and I like epics!
There were times that I thought the writing was a little over-written. For instance:
"The hexagon shape that melted into the dark, rugged tree trunks defied the descriptions of a tent with its gold-plated fixtures in the adjoining portable bathroom and the thick sheepskin and woolen carpets, pillows, and bedsheets adorning the interior."
And sometimes modifiers didn't quite fit...
"The blazing sun pelted on the vehicle, and the scene unfolded around it." You don't typically think of a sun as "pelting" ... rain and snow and ice 'pelts'.
But these small issues aside, I enjoyed this!… (plus d'informations)

Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing.Fantastic information I thoroughly enjoyed (being menopausal myself). Well researched; very detailed and helpful information you can implement into your routines. I’ll refer back to this for many years. Also enjoyed the recipes.

I don’t read many self-help and/or diet books anymore because most of them take information that could be explained in a few paragraphs and try to make it into a full book. For some reason, this book intrigued me, though, and I was pleasantly surprised because it contains a lot of information. It’s not a book for light reading. There is a lot of information about how the body works at the cellular level, etc. It would be good to use for a college class or AP level high school class.
It explains that stress is the main cause of our health problems, how it causes the problems, and what we can do to help ourselves age gracefully with the correct self-care practices. I especially like the “Caveat” chapter near the end of the book. It lists in a nutshell the things you need to do when you’re ready to commit. After that, there are two 7-day meal plans. One is to help improve your endothelial blood vessel flow, and the other is to help women with menopause.
No matter what your age, this is a good book to use as a reference and reminder of the steps that can help you live a healthier and higher quality life.… (plus d'informations)
