Age is a Number, Aging is a Choice

Why then do so many of us still feel destined for cellulite, saddle bags, and belly fat?
Why do we worry about the long line of Alzheimer's, cancer, and heart disease in our families? Why do we tolerate sagging skin, flagging energy, and lowered libido as we grow older, writing them off as inevitable?

We are not victims of our age. Our symptoms are both controllable and avoidable. You can slow and even reverse the signs of aging, combat genetic illness, control and determine the expression of genes, and even improve health as we age.

The body is magnificent, but it doesn't come with a lifetime warranty or an operating manual. You're the result of millions of years of evolution, but many of the adaptations that helped your ancestors survive are now working overtime to accelerate the aging process. The assumption here is that we "are our genes" and therefore trapped by the past. The good news is that our genetic code-the DNA sequence that is the biochemical basis of heredity-can play a minor role in the way we age. In other words, we have the capability to overcome and transform our genetic history and tendencies.

There are five key factors lead to accelerated aging-the muscle factor, the brain factor, the hormone factor, the gut factor, and the toxic fat factor. Dr. Sara Gottfried's revolutionary seven-week program empowers you to make the critical choices necessary to not just look young, but also feel young and live longer.
