The spectrum - Dean Ornish

The Ornish Diet has been named the"#1 Best Heart-Healthy Diet" byU.S. News & World Reportfor seven consecutive years!

From the author of the landmark bestseller Dr. Dean Ornish's Program for Reversing
Heart Disease comes an empowering new program that teaches you how to lower high blood pressure,lose weight, lower your cholesterol, or reverse a major disease by customizing a healthy
way of eating and living based on your own desires, needs, and genetic predispositions.


Dr. Dean Ornish revolutionized medicine by directing clinical research proving-for
the first time-that heart disease and early-stage prostate cancer may be stopped
or even reversed by his program of comprehensive lifestyle changes, without drugs
or surgery. His newest research was the first to show that changing your lifestyle
changes your genes in men with prostate cancer-"turning on" disease-preventing genes,
and "turning off" genes that promote breast cancer, heart disease, and other illnesses,
and in only three months. This study documented, also for the first time, that these
lifestyle changes may significantly increase an enzyme that lengthens telomeres-the
ends of your chromosomes that control how long you live. As your telomeres get longer,
your life gets longer. Your genes are not your fate.

Featuring one hundred
easy-to-prepare, delicious recipes from award-winning chef Art Smith, The Spectrum can make a powerful difference in your health and
well-being.

Praise for The Spectrum

"In 1993, Hillary asked Dr. Dean Ornish to consult with us on improving our health and well-being and to train the chefs who cooked for us at The White House, CampDavid, and Air Force One. I felt better and lost weight when I followed his recommendations. Asthis book illustrates, my genes may have been improving as well! If you want to see where medicine is likely to be five orten years from now, read this book today."-President Bill Clinton
