Dr. Phil's whole program in one book! READ MORE...

Long before anyone heard of Dr. Atkins or the South Beach Diet, Phil was discussing the importance of eating enough good quality protein, a reasonable amount of good fats, and not overloading on carbs. It includes instructions for the "Two Week Test" - a way to find out the right level of protein, carbs, and fats for you. An excellent book for anyone who is interested in good health and nutrition!

Maffetone's Guide to Healthy Living
"This book describes a way of life; it's not a diet book, exercise manual or nutrition guide. Its goal is to help you regain your instincts about what kind of food, exercise and nutrition you need to be optimally fit and healthy for the rest of your life..." from the introduction.

Reviews

"Dr. Maffetone's system goes beyond dealing with symptoms: he looks at health and fitness as an integrated balance. He deals with the whole picture clearly and directly. Fascinating and illuminating... and I feel great!"

-- James Taylor, Singer, Recording Artist
