Aus dem Klappentext

My name is Sam Graci and I have dedicated my life to researching the influences of food on the body.

I would like you to take a moment to think about your most recent meal. Now think about how you feel. Are you sluggish or energized? Calm or edgy? We now know that what you just ate is having a profound effect on your mood, energy, clarity of thinking, even your emotional stability. This happens because food affects our hormonal balance— and by guiding you to the right food at the right time I can help you achieve your optimum balance, or what I describe as "complete hormonal health and happiness." What this means to you is incredible day-to-day vitality, the attainment of your optimum body weight and a slowing down of the biological aging process.

In The Food Connection I will take you through the latest research on hormones, sleep patterns, supplements, food combinations and the time of food intake. My goal is to help you design a way of life that promotes "high-fidelity" communication with your hormone system— which is the key to your sustained health, longevity and intellectual vigor.

In our fast-paced, fast-food, fast-eating world we owe it to ourselves to appreciate the impact our diet and lifestyle choices have on so many aspects of our lives. Join me on this intriguing, informative and empowering journey!
