Fast Metabolism Food Rx

The cover of this book is what really grabbed me. It is big, bold, and colorful, but what I really like is the alluding to changing your metabolism based on your diet. I've had this work with me and my tea drinking, so I am very interested in other ways of maximizing what I already do (love eating), and having it be more impactful.




Quick Synopsis:
Haylie Pomroy, celebrated nutritionist, and #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Fast Metabolism Diet, shares a food prescription for the 7 most common ways your metabolism misfires and leads to exhaustion, excess weight, and illness. With her targeted eating plans you can feed your body back to a vibrant, energetic, and thriving state.

Tagline:
WANT TO FEEL GREAT, DISEASE-PROOF YOUR BODY, AND LIVE AT YOUR IDEAL WEIGHT?  THEN, EAT YOUR MEDICINE 


All of that being said, the book really did a nice job of breaking down what types of food help with what. The appendix, oddly enough, might be my favorite piece.

The appendix breaks down the Top 20 Foods for repairing:
  • GI
  • Energy
  • Horomone
  • Cholestroeal Metabolism
  • Mood and Cognition
  • Blood Sugar
  • Immune
Then it also tells you what foods to definitely avoid that will leave you drained.

I would recommend this book to anyone having some of the problems above to get a better idea of natural methods to repairing that or anyone actively working out or trying to be healthier.

I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
