<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In "The Spectrum," Dr. Ornish shows how to personalize a way of eating and a way of living based on each person's own health goals, needs, and preferences. A DVD of inspiring, beautiful, and peaceful guided meditations is also included.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The Ornish Diet has been named the "#1 Best Heart-Healthy Diet" by <i>U.S. News & World Report </i>for seven consecutive years!</b> <p/>From the author of the landmark bestseller <i>Dr. Dean Ornish's Program for Reversing Heart Disease</i> comes an empowering new program that teaches you how to lower high blood pressure, lose weight, lower your cholesterol, or reverse a major disease by customizing a healthy way of eating and living based on your own desires, needs, and genetic predispositions. <p/> Dr. Dean Ornish revolutionized medicine by directing clinical research proving-for the first time-that heart disease and early-stage prostate cancer may be stopped or even reversed by his program of comprehensive lifestyle changes, without drugs or surgery. His newest research was the first to show that changing your lifestyle changes your genes in men with prostate cancer-"turning on" disease-preventing genes, and "turning off" genes that promote breast cancer, heart disease, and other illnesses, and in only three months. This study documented, also for the first time, that these lifestyle changes may significantly increase an enzyme that lengthens telomeres-the ends of your chromosomes that control how long you live. As your telomeres get longer, your life gets longer. Your genes are not your fate. <p/> Featuring one hundred easy-to-prepare, delicious recipes from award-winning chef Art Smith, <i>The Spectrum</i> can make a powerful difference in your health and well-being. <p/><b>Praise for <i>The Spectrum</i></b> <p/>"In 1993, Hillary asked Dr. Dean Ornish to consult with us on improving our health and well-being and to train the chefs who cooked for us at The White House, Camp David, and Air Force One. I felt better and lost weight when I followed his recommendations. As this book illustrates, my genes may have been improving as well! If you want to see where medicine is likely to be five or ten years from now, read this book today."<b>--President Bill Clinton</b> <p/>"<i>The Spectrum</i> is absolutely fantastic. Time and again, Dr. Dean Ornish has scientifically proven that what was once thought to be medically impossible is, in fact, possible.
