Description: "Feel younger even as you grow older! From New York Times bestselling author Dr. Life, this heart-healthy diet plan will help men aged fifty and older lose weight, boost their energy, and build strong bodies and minds. The men Dr. Life treats desperately want to achieve leaner, sexier bodies. Yet many are not ready to keep up with the exercise routines found in Dr. Life's earlier books. Now, Dr. Life has created the ideal first step: a diet program to kickstart weight loss to help men live better each day and look great for years to come. Encapsulating all aspects of Dr. Life's medical program, The Life Plan Diet offers four different approaches to dieting: a jumpstart diet that keeps men motivated by getting real results fast, a basic health diet that optimizes blood sugar levels, a heart-healthy diet for maintenance, and a fat-burning diet that supports any exercise program, no matter how strenuous. This program doesn't require expensive equipment or difficult recipes with hard-to-find ingredients. Nor do you need significant medication, though Dr. Life addresses the hormonal component that keeps him in tip-top shape. Instead, it focuses primarily on how men over fifty can reverse disease and increase their metabolism with easy, everyday menus and rules for eating out; a revolutionary approach to losing belly fat; tips for enhanced muscle mass and bone strength; foods that naturally increase testosterone levels and growth hormones; and good habits for optimal brain function. From the popular face of anti-aging, here is a proven and wildly successful diet plan to help men over fifty lose weight and remain vital well into old age"--
