The MD Emperor Has No Clothes: Everybody Is Sick and I Know Why
Peter Glidden - 2012
Glidden is one of the very few to realize the sobering truths that MD directed medicine consistently fails to cure disease, and that it causes massive amounts of harm in the process. Furthermore, he understands that people around the world who continue to hold onto their cultural home remedies live longer and healthier than those that buy into modern medical methods! In America, Hispanics outlive whites by 2.5 years and blacks by 8 years - and it has nothing to do with genetics! Few physicians understand how and why this happens. Few physicians have hands-on experience delivering non-drug treatments that actually help people to recover their health. Dr. Glidden does.The MD Emperor Has No Clothes, by reconciling the ancient methods of Wholistic medicine with the urgent health needs of our modern world, offers a key to the very survival of America herself. God-speed Dr. Glidden!"- Joel Wallach BS, DVM, ND

The Life Plan: How Any Man Can Achieve Lasting Health, Great Sex, and a Stronger, Leaner Body
Jeffry S. Life - 2011
Jeffry Life before. And if you have, you might have thought, How can this seventy-two-year-old doctor have the body of a thirty-year-old? But his photos are very real, and you can look just as good as he does when you take control of your health. Back in 1998, Dr. Life was sixty years old and a stereotype of the aging man: he was overweight with a noticeable gut and little muscle tone. Even though his own medical practice was thriving, and he thought he knew everything about men’s health, the facts proved differently. His libido was low, which was ruining his self-esteem. He felt tired all the time, yet no amount of sleep made him feel well rested. It wasn’t until a cardiologist read him the riot act that he even considered that change was possible. He then decided to make critical adjustments to his diet and lifestyle, and the results have been nothing short of astounding. More than a decade later, Dr. Life continues to look and feel younger than ever. He knows that if he can make these changes to his body, his sex life, and his health, any man can. In this revolutionary book, he’ll show how you can turn around yourhealth by using the very same program he success-fully created and follows to this day. The Life Plan introduces a healthy aging lifestyle that any man can master, no matter what shape he may be in. It offers: • An action-packed exercise program designed to make working out entertaining as well as improve heart health and increase muscle mass. His program taps into various disciplines—cardio workouts, resistance training, balance and core conditioning, martial arts, and Pilates. • An easy diet, featuring delicious choices, that any man can follow, along with rules for eating out and sample recipes for the single or married guy. • A simple nutrient supplement regimen highlighting the top supplements men may need to halt, and even reverse, the aging process. • A prudent guide to male hormone replacement therapies based on the most up-to-date research. • Lessons on how to get your doctor to provide the care you deserve. • How to sidestep America’s disease-based approach to medicine and fuel optimal health. • And much more. By following this program you can once again enjoy an active, clear-headed, sexually satisfying, vigorous, and health-filled life, while avoiding late-onset diabetes, heart disease, and other common illnesses and complaints of aging. For men seeking to make over their bodies and turn back the clock, The Life Plan delivers the keys to a fitter body, a stronger immune system, and a richer, fuller life.

Dominique Francon - 2014
Maybe you have formed a vague idea of what it represents in your mind, or even more, maybe you're even a "practitioner", and try to apply Buddha's teachings in your every day life. You see, in life we are ALL in the same game, and yet most poeple don't realize it. Most people don't even take the time to think HOW they can improve their existence. Most people don't even know what "living in the present" is. That's precisely why a large majority of the world's population so desperately need Buddhism. They aren't living, they are surviving, transiting lives filled with hate and pain. And so I did, back before I was introduced to Buddha's lessons. It took me time to learn those lessons. It took me a lot of time and effort to incorporate the secrets that would ultimately shape my entire life! And now, I'm willing to share those secrets with you. I wrote this book for a reason. I wrote this book to show you HOW you can improve your life by applying Buddha's lessons. I wrote it to show you how you can set apart from the average path and go the whole way instead. You see, I may not know you, but I certainly know something about you: both you and me are alike. Whether you are just starting to get in touch with Buddhism, or even if you have already done that and are actually USING it to your advantage, I know you don't settle for average. I know you want something better. You won't stop until you fully enjoy your life. Until you fully grasp the path of simplicity, calmness, and inner peace. You won't stop until you truly achieve all you can achieve. And guess what? That's precisely what we will go for on this book! Hey, I'm not saying you should shave your head and climb up to a mountain to become a monk. You don't have to do that, trust me. My approach to Buddhism is different. I'm a modern guy. I'm aware of the world we live in, and I don't want to turn things upside down, and I guess neither do you. So, don't worry! I've got you covered. We'll go through Buddha's teachings and we will APPLY them into our daily modern lives. Because that's what's all about, isn't it? It's about improving our lives. Improving our focus. Improving our happiness. Finding our way to inner peace. Wow, I'm so glad to be here to share this amazing journey with you! My goal is simple. I will help you incorporate Buddhism into your life. I will help you simplify your thoughts, adopting Zen as a way of being, and not just doing. Sounds too difficult? It's not. I will show you how. I will take you through a step by step guide where you simply can't get lost! Together, we will go to the roots of Buddhism, Mindfulness & Meditation and transform that knowledge into an incredibly journey that will forever change the way you approach life. So let's go for it!

Change: Realizing Your Greatest Potential
Ilchi Lee - 2013
Both personally and globally, change drives our lives. Despite the new opportunities change can bring, many of us resist and fear it, even as we long for a healthier lifestyle or agree we need a more sustainable culture. Change: Realizing Your Greatest Potential turns this unavoidable condition of life from something fearsome to something empowering by revealing a new perspective on reality. The way we were taught to think of the world is not the way it really is. We are not a mosaic of separate beings in competition for resources. Instead, each of us is an integral part of a whole that encompasses all creation. We are an intrinsic driver behind the force of change. As such, our creative potential is limitless. That potential comes from what author Ilchi Lee discovered over the course of his inner explorations that each of us has a beautiful mind that desires to benefit all beings. This inherent nature is our true greatness and the true power to solidify the changes we envision in our personal lives and the world. Change is urgently needed; the current course of our civilization is no longer tenable. But major changes are not feasible, Lee says, unless we begin with changing ourselves. He says we can start a big change, no matter how daunting it is, with changing our personal attitudes and energy. Change tells you how.
