Bursting With Energy: The Breakthrough Method to Renew Youthful Energy and Restore Health [Paperback]

Frank Shallenberger (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 24, 2007

In this updated revision of his acclaimed book, "Bursting with Energy" Dr. Frank Shallenberger makes a clear connection between the amount of energy you have and the amount of aging you do, pointing out that, in medical terms, aging refers to a loss of function, not chronology. A thirty-year old with no loss of function is identical to a twenty-year-old, he says. And the same is true for fully functional people in their sixties-they are the same as thirty-year-olds. According to Shallenberger, the loss of functions that result from aging are themselves the result of energy loss: more energy, less aging; less energy, more aging. When Dr. Shallenberger discusses anti-aging methods, he is actually taling about improving energy production. His work with patients over the years has proven that an energy deficit is the root cause of every disease and sympton, from cancer, to fatigue, to obesity. Dr. Shallenberger believes that knowledge is power. Energy is the key, he says. As you learn to eliminate the bad habits that can seriously impair the production of energy and come o embrace the proven benefits outline in this book, you will discover firsthand the power of having maximum energy. Although you do grow older chronologically, you don't have to keep pace biologically. "Bursting with Energy" is all about feeling younger as you get older.

What a great read. Health and wellness is your responsibility. The simple truth is that most illness and disease is preventable. Its all explained here in a very straight forward yet detailed way.

There is a big difference between getting older and aging. To avoid aging as we get older, back to basics is a great place to start: Drink plenty of clean water, not bottled or tap. Get plenty of sleep AND good rest, not pill induced sleep and manic vacations. Eat whole organic food not processed junk food. Exercise, do both resistance and cardio. Meditate. Take a few quality supplements. Get regular sunshine. Breathe clean air and get plenty of oxygen. Have some fun. These are the kinds of things that are so obvious yet we've become completely separated from how simple and powerful these simple things are a prescription for long lasting health and a vital life.

What's great about Bursting With Energy is that the 'WHY' is explained in detail so you have a genuine appreciation of just how powerful these lifestyle choices really are. And as both an MD and a Naturopath, Frank informs with a very broad yet even-handed approach.

I see my clients everyday in my Full Spectrum Coaching practice become transformed by the simple application of these principles. They drop weight, look younger and healthier, feel better, have more energy, are able to focus and concentrate like never before, have an awesome sex life, greater confidence, are more successful, and lead happier lives in general. What's really interesting is how much scientific data has come out in the last 15 years to support what are truly the secrets to happiness. In fact, I recommend they read this book as one of the support texts for the work we do together.

Honestly, this is as good or better than any comparable best seller on the market in terms of content and delivery. Nice job.

Enjoy!

This review is from: Bursting With Energy (Paperback)

This book takes scientific basics of nutrition and physiology and transcribe them into everyday language. The explanations for why things are the way they are with losing weight are very helpful and provide a moderate level of knowledge, but enough to allow the reader to make informed personal decisions. I especially liked the position the author took of making small changes while building to a bigger goal. We all know of failure from trying to "bite off more than we could chew." Great book! Wonderful lessons!
