Written in accessible but medically accurate prose, Anorexia provides a detailed explanation of how the diagnosis of anorexia is made, common physical and personality characteristics of those affected by the illness, and both short and long-term complications. Anorexia takes the discussion a step further than similar books on the subject by placing the disease in context with a broad survey of the history of self-starvation from Antiquity to the present, and it tackles the difficult question of whether anorexia nervosa existed before the 19th century or is a uniquely modern disease. The book evaluates in detail the social, economic and cultural environments within which self-starvation has occurred historically, and it analyzes competing theories of the disease's origins―including sociocultural, developmental, biochemical, and genetic hypotheses. The book also provides coverage of several often overlooked topics, such as the incidence of anorexia among young men, and it makes use of the personal narrative of an anorexic throughout to give the reader some sense of what it feels like to have anorexia and what someone with anorexia may be thinking.

The pile of recent dieting books is growing faster than the average American's waistline. From the well-known programs that deprive and restrict to ones that rely on juice alone, it seems that everybody has an answer to the growing problem of obesity.When Jon Gabriel's life took an unexpected turn, he suddenly was awakened to the marvelous gift that he had been given-the opportunity to live-and was disgusted at how he had treated his body. At over four hundred pounds, walking, sleeping, and working was a struggle against gravity, and his life was a constant battle between emotional and physical satiation. He was slowly killing himself with food.Like the estimated 58 percent of Americans, and rising numbers in other countries, Jon was trapped in what he came to call the FAT-Famine and Temperature-trap. By studying biochemistry, Gabriel learned that your body has an internal logic that determines how fat or thin you will be at any given time. The way to lose weight is not to struggle or to force yourself to lose weight but to understand this internal logic and work with it so that your body wants to be thinner. When your body wants to be thinner, weight loss is inevitable and becomes automatic and effortless. You simply crave less food, you crave healthier foods, your metabolism speeds up and you become very efficient at burning fat, just like a naturally thin person. And that's the real transformation-to transform yourself into a naturally thin person, so that you can eat whatever you want whenever you want and still be thin, fit, and vibrantly healthy.After listening to The Gabriel Method, you will learn: Your body has a reason why it's holding on to weight-and it's not your fault.Fat is a cushion-a protective barrier that our mind believes is helping to protect us.If you can change that belief, you can change your body; stop the cycle of crash dieting and start eating what you      want,  when you want it.How to choose healthy, nutritious foods th...

'Without magnesium we are operating with the power turned off' - Dr Carolyn Dean Ignorance about the benefits of magnesium is crippling our health and vitality because: Magnesium alleviates and helps to prevent muscle pain and spasms, insomnia, osteoporosis, heart disease, strokes, depression, arthritis, asthma and diabetes. It is essential for energy production, athletic performance and neurological health. Lack of magnesium has also been linked to PMS, gall bladder and gastrointestinal problems, chronic fatigue syndrome and complications in pregnancy and childbirth. Not only are we deficient in magnesium we are becoming more so. The typical Western diet - rich in fat, sugar and salt - actually increases the need for magnesium. Modern farming methods deplete the magnesium that we should be getting from crops. Therefore, even a normal healthy diet may not be supplying us with adequate levels of magnesium. In THE MIRACLE OF MAGNESIUM Dr Carolyn Dean addresses the alarming lack of magnesium in our diets. She tells us which foods and lifestyles help with our magnesium intake, which other elements need to be taken with magnesium to make it potent and which magnesium supplements are best for our needs. Packed with such potentially life-enhancing information, THE MIRACLE OF MAGNESIUM may well be the answer to all our health issues.
