Great book that will open your eyes on a growing epidemic. Whether you are a Les Mills instructor or not, this book is a must read!

I purchased this book after signing up for a BodyPump class at a local gym, since I became curious about Les Mills. It is a very informative read that makes you think. As a health administration student, I am very much aware of the strains placed on the health care system by diseases of affluence. Initially, this was my motivation for losing weight and exercising. This book makes it clear how our actions and choices impact not only our personal health but also that of the planet.

Being familiar with Les Mills already through their exercise classes, I was intrigued when I heard about this book. Anyone who has either aspired to live green or have a loved-one who is overweight or suffering though a medical illness should read this book. We all need to understand how obesity, illness & sustainability of the environment are intertwined. It TRULY opened my eyes and my willingness to participate in the solution.
