The Pathway

the-pathwayThe Pathway: Follow the Road to Health and Happiness

Summary:

Two simple skills — self-nurturing and effective limit setting — are at the roots of personal balance. Studies show that when people master these two skills, the whole range of common excesses fades away. They lose weight without diets or drugs and keep it off years later. What’s more, they say they are happier and healthier than they have ever been and that these skills were the “missing link” in their lives. Many psychotherapists say this method will soon supersede all current healing methods for one reason: it works!

The Pathway shows you how to use the method that was developed over the last twenty years at one of the nation’s most prestigious medical schools — and why it works. There is a warm, wonderful community of support for mastering these skills in Solution Groups across the country and on the Internet, as well as a complete Solution course. As you read this book, you will find yourself using the skills and starting on the pathway to your own Solution.

Forever Ageless

Forever AgelessForever Ageless: Advanced Edition

Summary:

A comprehensive physician guide for the “nuts and bolts” of preventive/regenerative medicine which includes complex treatment algorithms, abstracts, Dr. Rothenberg’s lecture notes and a CD with power point presentations for Dr. Rothenberg’s lectures. The book also includes a personal plan to have a better quality of life (feel sexier, think smarter, have more energy).

Reviews:

“This is a must-read for any practitioner of preventive medicine and hormone replacement. Moreover, it is a superb read for the patient who wants to understand and maintain excellent insight into the science behind his therapy. Dr. Rothenberg’s explanations, algorithms and illustrations are indispensable. I highly recommend this outstanding book for anyone who wants to live better, longer!” -David Leonardi, M.D., CNS, Board Certified Anti-Aging Medicine

“It would be great if we could just get a peek at the lecture notes a doctor uses and check on the references he/she is citing. That is exactly what San Diego doctor Ron Rotherberg MD has done in his new book FOREVER AGELESS, ADVANCED EDITION, a compendium of valuable information compiled with co-authors Kathleen Becker and Kris Hart. When Dr. Ron Rothernberg and his staff see adult patients in his office he is seeing people who have one disease that emanates into all– aging. Treating age-related diseases as they arise is fast becoming an antiquated way of practicing medicine. Doctors are moving into an arena that was once thought to be marginal, and they are being pushed there by new scientific revelations. Biological aging is different than calendar aging and it can be controlled.” -Bill Sardi, President, Longevinex Resveratrol Partners LLC

Breakthrough by Suzanne Somers

Breakthrough by Suzanne Somers

Breakthrough: Eight Steps To Wellness

Summary:

Today’s most trusted advocate of anti aging medicine, Suzanne Somers, deepens her commitment to helping people lead healthier, happier lives by opening their eyes to cutting-edge, proven remedies and preventative care that most doctors just aren’t talking about with patients: longevity medicine and the more progressive study of bioidentical hormones.

As we age, certain hormones diminish, creating an imbalance that can set off everything from perimenopause to cancer, beginning as early as our thirties. This hormonal imbalance is causing many to feel depressed, anxious, fatigued, sexless, sleepless, and ultimately ill, sometimes even terminally. What’s more, Somers and twenty doctors in the field of antiaging medicine argue that the processed chemicals in foods and pharmaceuticals we ply ourselves with are actually slowly eroding our bodies and minds. So we’re getting slammed twice. From estrogen dominance to deceptive thyroid problems, people are suffering, and most don’t have access to the treatment they truly need to get better and thrive . . . until now.

Breakthrough explores cutting-edge science and delivers smart, proactive advice on the newest treatments for breakthrough health and longevity.

In addition to being a pioneer in a rapidly growing health field, Somers is a passionate, caring individual whose own life was derailed by disease and brought back to unimaginable, feel good heights that she wants you, too, to experience.
