    From:Thomas Nelson Inc. 0

    Document Overview:
    Day by day, a silent poison is killing Americans. It is estimated that 64 percent of Americans are overweight or obese, resulting in the premature deaths of 500,000 people a year. That's more US deaths–every year–than were suffered during all of WWII. This poison is right under your nose, front and center at virtually every meal. Yet despite hundreds of diet books, thousands of seminars, and countless hours of research, it has escaped discovery. That's because, says chemical engineer AJ Djo, experts have been looking in all the wrong places.Five years of intensive research into the eating habits of more than 100,000 subjects has unveiled the missing link between dieting and obesity. For the 100 million–plus Americans who try diet after diet–with rare success–this scientific breakthrough represents a solution that is not only logical and achievable but also sustainable for a lifetime.For the first time, here is a diet that incorporates all of the recommendations of leading nutritionists, dieticians, and governmental agencies...without the poisons. It took a man with AJ's unique multicultural background, scientific training, and spiritual depth to continue the long discovery process and put all the pieces together.The Hot Diet offers a solution to the weight–gain problems of millions of people who have tried the so–called popular diets, who live in a world of "Fat Clothes" and "Skinny Clothes," and who find that decade after decade, they continue to add a few pounds of unwanted weight every year.The Hot Diet is for the person who recognizes that there is more to life than food!

  • IVF & Everafter
    IVF & Everafter

    $8.99

    Document Overview:
    IVF and Ever After focuses on IVF treatment, its effects on families and relationships, and how to minimize the stress it causes. A groundbreaking work — no other book deals with the emotional experiences involved in IVF treatment and bringing up an IVF child. IVF clinics are overflowing with new patients and have little room for the 'personal touch' 80 million couples worldwide couples experience infertility This book is for couples thinking about IVF treatment, those undergoing treatment, and IVF parents who are experiencing emotional 'lows' without knowing why It is also an invaluable guide for health professionals working with IVF families IVF births make up a highly significant part of the fertility rate. The current overall success rate of IVF is approaching 25 per cent — twice what it was twenty years ago. Experts predict that we will approach a figure of 30 IVF births per 100 births by around 2030. IVF mothers are three times more likely to attend early parenting centers for help. IVF clinicians are now emphasizing to parents that stress plays a sizeable role in treatment success. Research has shown that women undergoing treatment for infertility have a similar level of stress as women dealing with life-threatening illnesses, such as cancer or heart disease. IVF and Ever After discusses the latest international research, bringing together the most up-to-date information for parents. It moves beyond the 'here and now' to look at issues families and practitioners rarely consider, such as telling a child about IVF conception, what to do with spare frozen embryos, and the implications of legislation to make surrogacy easier. This is also an essential read for any health professional involved with IVF, who rarely see how families cope away from the clinic, and it will be invaluable for GPs, who are seeing more and more patients who have been affected by IVF.
