Does it feel as if you’re fighting your body to lose even one pound—or just to maintain your current weight? Respected health and wellness expert and bestselling author Jillian Michaels has been there, too. So she consulted top experts in the field of metabolism and discovered that she’d inadvertently been abusing her endocrine system for years. After “fixing” her own metabolism, she decided to share what she learned by devising this simple, 3-phase plan that engages all the weight-loss hormones (including the friendly HGH, testosterone, DHEA; and the not-so-friendly: insulin, cortisol, and excess estrogen). In Master Your Metabolism, discover how to: • REMOVE “anti-nutrients” from your diet • RESTORE foods that speak directly to fat-burning genes • REBALANCE energy and your hormones for effortless weight loss Michaels offers a wealth of information throughout, including: shopping lists and online shopping resources, hormone-trigger food charts, how to eat “power nutrient” foods on a budget, smart strategies for eating out, quick and easy recipes, as well as mini-programs for addressing PMS, andropause, metabolic syndrome, PCOS, and menopause.

From an award-winning endocrinology pioneer and metabolism expert comes a revolutionary, sustainable and scientific approach to help you lose weight, regain energy, clear your mind, and prevent disease. Each of us fits into one of five different body types, based on our bodies' level of insulin resistance (the book includes an easy self-assessment quiz for readers to identify their type). Maximize Your Metabolism offers unique diet and exercises plans tailored for each of the five different body types, as well as core recommendations that every type should follow, including: A low-carb diet rich in vegetables, with modest portions of meat, eggs, cheese, plain Greek yogurt , and low sugar fruits such as Granny Smith apples, berries, and green crunchy pears Avoiding "healthy" foods that are actually hurting you: quinoa is a simple carbohydrate you should substitute with cauliflower rice, agave is actually worse for your metabolism than sugar, and probiotics are overrated (instead choose prebiotics, such as artichokes, leaks, and onions). Sleep: 6-8 hours per night (and recommended testing for sleep apnea). Exercise: 3+ times per week, as vigorous as you can, for as long as you can. This book is based on the extraordinary successful program that Dr. Maclaren has prescribed to thousands of patients with great success.
