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. Includes a bonus PDF with tips, recipes, and meal plans for maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle

"Love it! Sure there is a lot to think of, but Jillian made everything so much clearer, and with the easy-to-follow charts of breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner combinations even I thought it was easy. The hard part now is to get the rest of the family on track and to find "safe" makeup and hygiene products."

" some good stuff, some dubious science... not different than most food writing "
— Megan, 2/18/2014" Some good information. Still not sure I can give up my caffeine! "
— Ann, 2/8/2014" The information is not new, but it was very nicely compiled and easily accessible. I am not a huge fan of Michaels' delivery but she does tell it like it is... "
— Suzanne, 1/31/2014" The idea is to learn how to balance your hormone function. "
— Jo, 1/21/2014" A good book...lots of information. The basics of the book are......EAT HEALTHY!! "
— Roxanne, 1/14/2014" Has some good information but most doesn't apply to me. "
— Lesa, 1/11/2014" Learned a lot from this book. Might be an overload of information, but pick and choose which you choose to use. "
— Amanda, 1/8/2014" This book was very eye opening. I have really changed the way I have eaten and how I feel about taking medicine in general. It is amazing how many things we do that are just so bad for us. On top of it they are making us fat!!! Great read. "
— Joan, 12/10/2013" Good info on newer science. "
— Michelle, 10/7/2013" I enjoyed reading this book but it would be very difficult to stick to her complete diet; eat only "foods that have a mother or grow from the ground." There are good shopping lists, recipes, and suggestions on how to eat/buy healthier foods within the text. "
— Angela, 3/29/2013" Great book One we should all live by!!!!!!!! "
— Tami, 2/19/2013" Amazing information! If I could afford to do all that she suggests I would. "
— Kimberly, 8/2/2012" Interesting ideas for which she cites several studies in the appendix, although some seem a little too over-the-top. I would be interested in a review of the studies to see if they are legitimate, thus legitimizing her ideas. "
— Janet, 7/26/2012" Remove: toxins and artificial chemicals. Restore: whole, natural, organic foods to your diet. Rebalance: your energy, your food portions and combinations. "
— Kari, 9/4/2011" Same info - different focus. Eat clean - avoid artificial anything, increase your protein, eat breakfast, and exercise. Nothing new here unless you want to know the metabolic effect of the above well known health choices. "
— Evie, 5/21/2011" eh. she's very full of herself. good info, big ego. "
— Dianne, 4/26/2011" Many scientific citations. Lots of new info that people don't talk about enough. Way more than I expected from a TV personality. Mainly discusses how artificial stuff is harming us. "
— Mike, 4/24/2011" This book was so eye opening and full of information. It was a little scary to learn about what we are actually putting in our bodies when we eat every day things. I have followed some of Jillian's suggestions and feel/see an improvement already! Very insightful and motivational!! "
— Janine, 4/6/2011" Maybe I missed something in the electronic version, but this had very little to do with hormones. It was more like a pop magazine-style list of things she doesn't like you to eat/use: plastic, soy, caffeine, etc. Thanks for letting me know. "
— Dawn, 2/24/2011" great book, little too medical, but enjoyed. "
— Stephanie, 2/23/2011" Outstanding book about health and fitness. One of the best that I have read. I learned so much. "
