Synopsis
Based on Nobel Prize-winning research, an easy-to-follow lifestyle plan for losing weight, looking younger, and feeling energized
The 2016 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine was awarded to a Japanese scientist for his discoveries on autophagy, the process of cells recycling their content. Glow15 is the first book for a general audience to take that fascinating science and translates into an accessible, practical guide to losing weight, looking younger, and feeling energized.
On Glow15, you start each day with an autophagy-activating ketogenic tea and a light, full-fat breakfast, followed by intermittent fasting and protein cycling. You eat foods that activate autophagy, like dairy, red wine, grains, and a blueberry smoothie. It can be that simple to see dramatic results in just 15 days-- fast weight loss and glowing, radiant skin. You don't count calories. You don't give up entire food groups. And you don't obsess about the gym.
You'll also learn Naomi Whittel's life hacks for sleep, travel, stress reduction, and productivity, as well as delicious and nutritious recipes for eating the Glow15 way--everything that this 42-year-old CEO and mother of four young children does to look and feel amazing.
