Summary
Isolating the source of more than 90 percent of today's most common diseases, from cancer and heart disease to diabetes, stroke, and Alzheimer's, they enumerate the Five Forces of Illness -- Sludge (malnutrition), Burnout (impaired metabolism), Heat (inflammation), Waste (impaired detoxification), and Rust (oxidative stress). Through the practice of the six-week "Ultraprevention" program, you'll learn three simple steps -- each only two weeks long -- that stop these forces and create a lifetime of good health by "removing" allergens, infections, and toxins from the body and environment; "repairing" the body through personalizing nutrition, boosting the immune system, and balancing hormones; and "recharging" with stress management, sleep restoration, and gentle movement.
