Synopsis

Food – Medicine – Lifestyle You will discover: · Why our ancestors did not die from cancer and heart disease—learn the real causes and how to reduce your risk · Osteoporosis—discover the biggest so called preventative food is the number one cause. Osteoporosis can be prevented and is easily treated, find out how · What the cosmetic industry does not want you to know. Exposing the hidden poisons and chemicals in our everyday beauty products and why they are dangerous · Anti-ageing—what you need to know and why you won’t find it in a miracle cream! · How to increase your energy, simple keys to feeling great There is a veritable ocean of information—and misinformation—about what’s good for us and what’s bad for us in the areas of food, medicine and lifestyle. You can spend countless hours trying to sort through the latest discoveries and opinion on what promotes a long, healthy life instead of getting out there and living to the full. ‘Hard to Swallow’ is the testament of such a journey by mother of 5 boisterous boys Julie van Eps. With a challenging eye and desire to ‘go natural’ and make good living a holistic approach, Julie will get you thinking about what you do put in, and what you have been taught to put in and what to leave out, to get the most out of life. ‘Hard to Swallow’ is not an attack on western medicine, ‘silver bullet’ approach to successful health or promulgation of ‘pop health’ ideas. Julie invites you to really think about the way our bodies function and use traditional, invariably non-expensive ways, to optimize your wellness and recover from ill-health. ‘Hard to Swallow’ looks at the supplement industry, fats, sugar, water, dairy products, to name a few, and in so dispelling the myth that degenerative disease is a natural part of ageing.

About this title

About the Author

Julie van Eps has always had a passion for health and nutrition, and wanted to take that energy and passion one step further when she came up with an innovative idea to launch Australia’s first ever chilled baby food for national distribution through retail giants Woolworths and Coles in 2006. Baby Boost was born after the birth of her first son Cooper when she started on the journey to find nutritious food using fresh natural ingredients. The company grew over a four year period which saw the launch of sugar free energy drinks into the retail market. Julie’s greatest passion is for her five young boys, who are all under 8 years (including one set of twins). Five years on it was time to call it a day and shift focus, and dive into studies in Health Science, Nutritional Medicine. Julie is the author of five books.
