When it comes to your health, body shape really does matter! No matter what your current weight or how well you take care
of yourself, whether you're a teenager or postmenopausal,
this book will change the way you relate to your body
forever. That's the power of body shape -- and it's as easy
as knowing the difference between apples and pears! If you tend to gain weight in your belly and back, you're an
apple. If your thighs and derriere are where you bear extra
baggage, you're a pear. But do you know that your fruit IQ
is the single most powerful predictor of future health? Body
type directly affects your likelihood for obesity, heart
disease, osteoporosis, diabetes, stroke, varicose veins, and
certain cancers. But, as medical pioneer and ABC's women's
health expert Marie Savard, M.D., explains in this
ground-breaking book, there are things you can do to prevent
or even reverse the risks of body shape. The Body Shape
Solution to Weight Loss and Wellness can help you: * understand what body shape means, and how it
relates to your health * learn how to distinguish between subcutaneous and
visceral fat -- butt or gut! -- and discover why all fat is
not created equal * discover the Elite foods that help protect against
disease and improve your odds of shedding fat * acquire the tools you need to make conscious,
informed, healthy choices about food * throw away your scale and get out of the cycle of
diet failure -- for good! Work with your body -- not against it -- to achieve maximum
health and look your best!
