Review:
Frank Suarez has a wonderful way of introducing a method of understanding ones unique metabolism in order to achieve weight objectives. The theories he presented are based on his personal experience and knowledge, which made me better understand how my body works in understandable layman s terms. The encouraging narration leaves me to assess what could work for me or not through a cause-and-effect analysis of implementing some or all of his concepts, whichever comes out convenient or effective for me. He does not blatantly lay out DOs and DON Ts in a blanket authoritative way but rather encourages my own customization for my needs--- that I am the ruler of my body, and only I can make the best decision by interpreting what is happening in my body. The concepts are novel, holistic and integrative. It discusses the metabolism make-up such as the various hormones that influence its rate, for example sugar-regulating insulin, stress-induced cortisol and the thyroid hormone that all compete for valuable receptors to run effectively. It expounds on food groups that are not encouraged like refined carbohydrates (white bread is the most common), margarine, polyunsaturated fat in corn, unfermented soybean and vegetable oils, aspartame, fluoride, maltitol in chocolates, and the like. It recommends healthy eating patterns like the king-prince-pauper meals from breakfast to dinner. It presents simple exercises like jumping on trampolines and walking, and the mental preparation to embark on a decisive journey to weight management. The list goes on. UPSIDE 1. This book is very informative and covers a relational approach from the medical perspective to a layman viewpoint in an easy-to-understand manner. 2. The narration is empathic and encourages self-analysis for the applicability of concepts. 3. It covers most if not all perspectives including current health status, diet, supplementation, exercise, mental preparation, herbal and natural alternatives, and more. 4. A glossary is provided for more technical terms. DOWNSIDE 1. For such a long & descriptive eBook, it would be nice to include at least one photo per chapter. This would make the eBook more appealing for visual persons like me. The before and after photo of the author that serves as a testimonial at the beginning of the book should have been a good start. Overall, I am impressed with the caring and universal way of explaining concepts and encouraging how to apply it to my weight situation as just one of the many readers. It offers a variety of ways, which may be done in part or whole, to be on top of one s weight management program. On the technical aspect, the 360-pager eBook downloads easily across all devices for easy reference. It is also available in hard copy as published by Metabolic Press on June 23, 2009. --Thea Mcraeg
