The 10 Secrets Of 100% Healthy People: Some people never get sick and are always full of energy - find out how!

by Patrick Holford BSc DipION FBANT

Do you know the ten habits that could help you thrive - not just survive - in the 21st century? In order to discover what those secrets are, Patrick Holford and his team have carried out Britain's biggest-ever health and diet survey, the 100% health survey, which has now been completed by over 60,000 people. This book is a distillation of the fascinating insights provided by the survey's top scorers and the author's 30 years of experience studying good health and how to achieve it. It shows readers how to discover where they are on the scale of 100% health and provides a new system of good health that is easy to follow and easily measurable - one that will enable people to transform their health and wellbeing, whether they are relatively fit and healthy or struggling with various health issues. This highly informative and practical book covers ten areas crucial to a healthy - and happy - life, including the key to gaining energy and losing weight, how to slow down the ageing process, keeping your body and mind well oiled, sharpening your mind and improving your mood, keeping fit and supple, and finding your purpose in life.

This is a comprehensive book on optimum nutrition. I bought it because I have recently gone from being a vegetarian to being a vegan and I wanted to adjust my diet to stay as healthy as possible. I really believe we should focus on staying healthy as opposed to reacting to sickness. Four sections in the book have quizzes, and depending on the result, you may be advised to add things in to your diet or take extra supplements. I have implemented some of the recommended changes and I see an improvement in my skin. Mind you, some of the supplements suggested are horrendously expensive so I have substituted less expensive ones and I still see an improvement.

Interesting introduction into the world f a low GI diet. Lost of information and diets that seem to have a positive impact in my own life. Lowering my intake of wheat and other high GL foods. The kind of diet that my other half has been following for sometime.

قرأت الكتاب باللغة العربية. بطبيعة الإنسان يبحث عن الأسرار لكن بالحقيقة لا يوجد أسرار بل هناك أشياء نعرفها لكننا نتجاهلها بل أحيانا لا نعتقد أنها السبب. في هذا الكتاب يعرض لنا أمور نعرفها تعد من أساليب الصحيين الذي فقط ألتزموا بها في حياتهم.

Another output from the Holford production line/publicity machine. This is a quick, easy read that summarises some interesting (but unsurprising) statistical data about overall health and how to attain and maintain it.
