More About This Book

Overview

When Dr. Bill Sears, the renowned family practitioner was diagnosed with cancer nearly a decade ago, he realized that he needed to take control of his life, and he created the Prime-Time Health plan, which he and his wife, Martha, follow to this day. Now they share this program with you, enabling you to make your prime time the healthiest and happiest time of your life.

Prime-Time Health uncovers the secrets of aging well. Whether you are a fifty-year-old in the prevention mind-set or a prime timer already in repair mode, with this plan you will:

understand how your body changes during prime time

prevent disease and help each body system- including the heart, brain, gut, lungs, joints, eyes, and skin - age more healthily

enjoy more restful sleep, sharper thinking and memory, less stress, and better sex

cut your risks of cancer the "highs" - high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and high cholesterol

get fit, strong and flexible with a personalized exercise program

Based on sound scientific research and a lifetime of medical expertise, Prime-Time Health is your road map to a prime time filled with health, happiness, and vitality.
