Foreword
This is the most inspiring book for the overweight (over-fat) health-minded individual today. We are amazed at the clear way in which Brad King presents the complex topics of obesity and weight loss. He gives each one of us hope with his excellent diet plans, including his Fat Wars shakes to help make the five to six meals per day of up to 500 calories each. We all want to snack our way to greater fat loss. All of the facts are current and organized well in a concise, yet scientifically valid, format.
We are all individual in our daily nutrition requirements, and Brad has presented a sound account of the true causes of obesity in America today. The differences between male and female metabolisms relating to the historical genetic necessities are carefully explained. He imparts to the reader his wonderful grasp of hormone influences on our daily routine. In our field of Longevity Medicine, we recognize Human Growth Hormone with Testosterone and Estrogen as being the keys to not only longevity but also to a healthy status. This tight and well-written book has reaffirmed the dangers from an overabundance of bloated fat cells as well as the beauty and health benefits of increased muscle mass.
Brad is way ahead of his time; he has picked up the pieces and has finally solved the diet puzzle left behind by hundreds of ineffective diets. A superb explanation of the 40-30-30 carbohydrate, fat, protein question.
As clinicians at the Health and Longevity Centre, we recommend all the principles that Brad J. King has outlined in his 45 days to transform your body. Finally, someone has clearly taken a stand about aerobic exercise and answered the basic questions of when to eat, when to exercise, and how much. His book has done wonders for many of our patients. This book will get results for everyone in America, and once again Americans will be able to take center stage for health and fitness in a changing world.
