Editorial Review:Lose Weight • Slow the Aging Process • Feel Great. . . and never count calories again!
If you are following a popular diet -- whether it is low-carb, low-fat, food combining or limited calories -- it is killing you. It is breaking down every component of your body, causing destruction of your healthy muscle tissue and aging everything from your brain cells to the skin on your face.
But there is an alternative. You can have the body you want without dangerous diets, unproven supplements and punishing workouts. Dr. Schwarzbein’s revolutionary program uses the body's metabolic system to help you postpone or reverse the degenerative effects of aging and lose weight for life by:
- Balancing carbohydrates and fat - without eliminating food groups or counting calories
- Managing stress and getting a great night's sleep
- Tapering off and reversing cravings such as tobacco, alcohol, caffeine and sugar
- Switching from strenuous cardio exercise to moderate resistance training and stretching
- Balancing your hormones with the right kind of hormone replacement therapy
This is the book Dr. Schwarzbein's hundreds of thousands of fans have been waiting for -- a simple straightforward program that will finally break the cycle and give you longer life, permanent weight loss and increased energy . . . the healthy way.
"In the sea of diet/lifestyle books, The Schwarzbein Principle is one of the most balanced, sensible and effective programs . . . I applaud Dr. Schwarzbein's revolutionary yet realistic approach to food."
- Christiane Northrup, M.D., author of The Wisdom of Menopause

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Fatter and Wiser
I learned about the Schwarzbein Principle and eating program after buying supplements from the Women to Women website. I read the book and it made a lot of sense so I tried it. After 6 weeks I had gained 6 pounds (I was overweight to begin with). I phoned Women to Women for advice, and was told my body was adjusting to the new eating plan and would soon feel much better. After 10 weeks, I had gained 8 pounds. I felt sluggish from all the dietary fat and I just did not feel "right." I had no energy ... Read More
Rating: - moderation of old program to keep up sales with societal change
I feel that Dr. Schwarzbein is just interested in $$. Her old program doesnt sell that well anymore due to the fact that alot of people started eating GOOD carbs and went away from high protein/fat diets. She then had to modify the program to keep up with what people would actually read and buy. The whole adrenal burnout jargon sounds like a lot of hoopla to me and the way she says you have to be careful how you cook meat fat in order to not DAMAGE it, is just a tedious task that people do not need ...

Rating: - Don't bother
A very disappointing read. There are so many opinions expressed in this book without further explanation ... it is pitiful. Example: the author claims we should not use the natural thyroid medication Armour. Why not? No further explanation is given. This is extremely annoying and therefore a complete waste of time. This book is going into the recycling bin.
Rating: - Not Worth The Time To Read
As an avid reader of health and wellness books I looked forward to getting this book. However, I found this book to be trite and shallow. Not nearly enough detail to be beneficial and a constant reiteration of the same text over and over from chapter to chapter. The author mentions many complex topics, conditions and supplements in a very high overview manner. If you haven't read her earlier works and/or don't have a good understanding of the endocrine system and the effects of hormones on the body ... Read More
Rating:  - Read The Schwarzbein Principle first
This is an excellent program and has helped me to feel better and lose weight on a diet I can maintain. It combines the best of low carb diets with lots of vegetables and some healthy carbs like fruits and grains. The cookbook is also excellent. I read The Program first and thought it was great until I realized I was not sure what to eat and what to avoid. Then I got The Schwarzbein Principle and found it MUCH easier to read and implement. I do not think there is much else to gain from reading The ... Read More
