De: Neal D. Barnard MD MD FACC, Lindsay Nixon

Narrado por: Timothy Pabon

The shocking new science of how hormones are wreaking havoc on the body, and the delicious solution that improves health, reduces pain, and even helps to shed weight.

Hidden in everyday foods are the causes of a surprising range of health problems: infertility, menstrual cramps, weight gain, hair loss, breast and prostate cancer, hot flashes, and much more. All of these conditions have one thing in common: They are fueled by hormones that are hiding in foods or are influenced by the foods we eat.

Your Body in Balance provides step-by-step guidance for understanding what's at the root of your suffering - and what you can do to feel better fast. Few people realize that a simple food prescription can help you tackle all these and more by gently restoring your hormone balance, with benefits rivaling medications. Neal Barnard, MD, a leading authority on nutrition and health, offers insight into how dietary changes can alleviate years of stress, pain, and illness. What's more, he also provides delicious and easy-to-make hormone-balancing recipes, including:

• Cauliflower Buffalo Chowder
• Kung Pao Lettuce Wraps
• Butternut Breakfast Tacos
• Mediterranean Croquettes
• Apple Pie Nachos
• Brownie Batter Hummus

Your Body in Balance gives new hope for people struggling with health issues. Thousands of people have already reclaimed their lives and their health through the strategic dietary changes described in this book. Whether you're looking to treat a specific ailment or are in search of better overall health, Dr. Neal Barnard provides an easy pathway toward pain relief, weight control, and a lifetime of good health.

"In Your Body in Balance, Dr. Neal Barnard distills the latest nutritional science down to bite-sized truths that will quickly transform nearly any life plagued by hormone dependent illness into one of vibrant wellness. Whether it's cramps, cancer, infertility, impotence, moodiness or menopause, Dr. Barnard masterfully navigates a clear path to your healthiest self." (Kristi Funk, MD, FACS, breast cancer surgeon, co-founder of Pink Lotus Breast Center, and best-selling author of Breasts: The Owner's Manual)

"Finally, an intelligent guide book that speaks up about the potent role our hormones play in every aspect of our lives. As an Olympic athlete, I never really thought of this connection until I dropped all animal foods from my diet and turned to whole plant foods to fuel my training. Almost overnight, my adaptation to training sped up (which is a function of our immune system directed by hormones), my PMS subsided, my breakouts cleared up, and my ability to focus and calm my nerves greatly improved. Dr. Barnard takes the reader on a revealing journey to uncover what's really behind some of our most common physical ailments and how to fix them in the blink of an eye." (Dotsie Bausch, Olympic silver medalist, 8X US National Champion, former world record holder, 2x Pan American Gold, and founder of Switch4Good)

Fantastic information.

Great content. But as a medical provider the constant mispronunciations of medical terms, medications, etc was frustrating. Otherwise another great addition to the literature of the benefits of a wfpb diet

Excellent Read

This book answered a lot of wondering questions . Very detailed and packed with information. I have shared with Healthcare Colleagues

Finally a book for women

I loved this book. I’d like to know more about some of the studies. Is there a place I can get access to these studies? Specifically the Swedish study done on women who experienced postpartum psychosis.

I learned so much!

Even though I have studied nutrition of all forms but mostly plant based nutrition recently, I was blown away by all the information in this book!
Dr. Neal Barnard makes it all very easy to understand. His book is written well with facts and data to back his what he’s saying.
I’ve personally suffered with PCOS and infertility. I took fertility drugs to be able to conceive. Though I am forever grateful I was able to have my child, I wish I had known how to heal my body and fertility without the medications.
If you want to have an understanding of your hormones and how they can be affected by what you eat, then this book is for you!
