by: Dr. Peter J. D'Adamo publisher: Three Rivers Press, published: 2009-12-29 ASIN: 0767925254 EAN: 9780767925259 sales rank: 35662 “D'Adamo's engaging writing style, enthusiasm for his subject, and personalized advice will appeal to those who enjoy taking a hands-on approach to their health and exploring new theories.” –Publishers Weekly With over five million copies sold worldwide of Eat Right 4 Your Type and additional books in the Blood Type Diet series, Dr. Peter J. D’Adamo pioneered a new, revolutionary approach to dieting–one linked to a person’s blood type. In Change Your Genetic Destiny, he takes his groundbreaking research to the next level by identifying six unique genetic types. Whether you are a Hunter, Gatherer, Teacher, Explorer, Warrior, or Nomad, Dr. D’Adamo offers a customized program that complements your genetic makeup to maximize health and weight loss, as well as prevent or even reverse disease. In simple, concise prose, Dr. D’Adamo explains how a host of environmental factors, including diet and lifestyle, dictate how and when your genes express themselves. He goes on to demonstrate precisely how, with the right tools, you can alter your genetic destiny by turning on the good genes and silencing the bad ones. Your health risks, weight, and life span can all be improved by following the GenoType Diet that’s right for you. Using family history and blood type, as well as simple diagnostic tools like fingerprint analysis, leg length measurements, and dental characteristics, Dr. D’Adamo shows you how to map out your genetic identity and discover which of the six GenoType plans you should follow. Without expensive tests or a visit to the doctor, Change Your Genetic Destiny reveals previously hidden genetic strengths and weaknesses and provides a precise diet and lifestyle plan for every individual. Based on the latest and most cutting-edge research, this is a twenty-first-century plan for wellness and weight loss from a renowned healthcare pioneer. |

by: Ricki Lewis publisher: McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math, published: 2011-10-07 ASIN: 0073525308 EAN: 9780073525303 sales rank: 107284 Today, human genetics is for everyone. It is about variation more than about illnesses, and increasingly about the common rather than about the rare. Once an obscure science or an occasional explanation for an odd collection of symptoms, human genetics is now part of everyday conversation. By coming to know genetic backgrounds, people can control their environments in more healthy ways. Genetic knowledge is, therefore, both informative and empowering. The 10th edition of Human Genetics: Concepts and Applications shows students how and why that is true. |

by: Jeffrey M. Smith publisher: Chelsea Green, published: 2007-01-31 ASIN: 0972966528 EAN: 9780972966528 sales rank: 10141 Eating genetically modified food is gambling with every bite. The biotech industry's claim that genetically modified (GM) foods are safe is shattered in this groundbreaking book. Sixty-five health risks of the foods that Americans eat every day are presented in easy-to-read two-page spreads. The left page is designed for the quick scanning reader; it includes bullets, illustrations, and quotes. The right side offers fully referenced text, describing both research studies and theoretical risks. The second half of Genetic Roulette shows how safety assessments on GM crops are not competent to identify the health problems presented in the first half. It also exposes how industry research is rigged to avoid finding problems. This book, prepared in with input by more than 30 scientists, is for anyone wanting to understand GM technology, to learn how to protect themselves, or to share their concerns with others. It is presented in the clear, accessible style that made Jeffrey Smith's Seeds of Deception the world's best-selling book on genetically engineered foods. As the world's most complete reference on the health risks of GM foods, Genetic Roulette is also ideal for schools and libraries. |
