The Antioxidant Miracle

Autor Lester Packer, Carol Colman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 ian 2000
Imagine there was an easy way you could keep your heart strong, your mind sharp, and your body youthful. Imagine this program could keep you young, improve your sex life, prevent cancer and heart disease, and keep your skin supple and wrinkle–free. And perhaps best of all, imagine this was something readily available at your local drugstore or natural food store. These and other benefits are the miraculous results of antioxidants. Lester Packer is the world′s foremost authority on these natural healers. In The Antioxidant Miracle, he explains for the first time exactly how you can design a practical, personalized antioxidant program for disease prevention and optimal wellness.

The Antioxidant Miracle is the first popular book to reveal the full range of healing benefits of lipoic acid, the most versatile and powerful antioxidant and nature′s secret weapon in treating heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and liver disease. This breakthrough book also unveils the astonishing strength of the antioxidant network, the combination of vitamin E, vitamin C, lipoic acid, Co Q10, and glutathione that–when taken together in the proper amounts–battles disease and aging far more aggressively than supplements taken individually.

After an accessible explanation of the science behind antioxidants, Packer and bestselling health writer Carol Colman show you how to develop your own state–of–the–art supplement regimen designed to keep your body strong, your brain at full speed, and your antioxidant network working at its peak. They include specialized supplement programs for smokers, diabetics, people with a family history of cancer or heart disease, menopausal women, athletes, and picky eaters. You′ll find out how to incorporate antioxidant–rich foods easily into your diet and develop your own plan for smooth, healthy, young looking skin. And you′ll discover the benefits of "booster" antioxidants–bioflavonoids like ginkgo biloba and Pycnogenol–and others like beta carotene and selenium.

The Antioxidant Miracle can enhance and extend your life. Make the antioxidant miracle work for you!
