Dr. Jay Williams, the noted exercise physiologist
and trainer to the rich and famous, works out of
the beautiful Mauna Lani Resort in Hawaii.
In her latest book, Dr. Williams shares her
secrets for helping you to improve your
health, lose weight and reduce your biological age.
Her novel techniques include a quick 24-hour
turnaround to get you on the right track to looking
and feeling great. Williams' advice is both
traditional (to always eat breakfast and drink
lots of water) and unorthodox (high intensity exercise is actually bad
for you), and she provides the scientific backup for each of her
propositions. Her approach is holistic, and urges the reader to incorporate
diet, exercise and spirituality into her life in order to
achieve the best results. Her absolute insistence that what you
eat determines your health is very interesting, and there's no question
that you will feel much better after just a week or so on her program.
Her tone is encouraging, and also humorous at times (she recognizes,
for example,
the extreme reluctance many will feel at being told to lay off the alcohol).
Her section on osteoporosis and menopause is especially timely
and useful. So what are you waiting for? Let Dr. Williams
help you start turning back the clock.
