Publisher description
I was about to turn sixty years old, and I had been telling family and friends that I was going to live to 120. That is what some insurance actuaries were saying. So something needed to change if I did not want to end up dribbling in a room full of strangers in my mid-nineties. Or worse, not speaking to the intensive care unit nurse at the age of sixty-five due to a cardiovascular "incident"! Bookstores house thousands of diet books, and people buy them to the tune of billions of dollars each year. Yet, the public continues to get unhealthier and fatter. I was just officially overweight and joined the ranks of 62% of the population. I had tried to exercise and restrain from too much food, too often. Was my weight even a health issue? In fact, all I knew at the time was that skinny worms live longer than fat ones. And that everyone I knew who went on a diet eventually became heavier. With 15 years of real hands-on science research experience, and 20 years of business I set out to find what the best of science was saying. Could my experience of commercialising science in business and a life of "change management" show me how to be healthier for the rest of my life? What have I found? Science has answers now. It wasn't about doing more: it was doing less and I could reduce my health risk by 10 or 100 times. The change is simple: takeout things from my life and not add things in. The six steps I outline in this book meet my business strategy of achieving 80% of the outcomes with 20% of the effort and are consistent with the best science in the world today. The Take-Out Diet reviews the best advice science provides for health. Would you like those health and weight outcomes? Take-out things in your life and give yourself the best chance of a healthy disease-free and long life
