Check Engine Light
"The gap between what really matters and what has become fitness-as-entertainment is growing wider by the day-and Rob is reaching across the divide with a steady hand. What we need is a framework. A model. A lens to help us make sense of it all. We need a dashboard--one that can help us better understand our inputs and outputs, our biology and our psychology, our feelings and our potential. Fortunately, we have Rob Wilson." --Dr. Kelly Starrett, 3x New York Times Best-Selling Author, Physio, and High Performance CoachWhether you're navigating minor concerns or major challenges, Check Engine Light will empower you to take control of your health and performance through expert guidance and an experimental mindset. Let's face it, we've all got a check engine light flashing. Maybe it's that low back pain you've had for years, or the emotional baggage that's collecting dust in your brain, or the growing fluffiness around your waistline, or maybe it's something you are not even sure whether to interpret as a warning signal. But all of us let things build up over time, and those things drag us down and keep us from living and performing at our best. Sometimes we know exactly why the light is flashing, but we either can't or won't slow down long enough to investigate. Other times we don't realize the light is flashing at all. Rob Wilson's Check Engine Light delivers a fresh approach to identifying these hidden and not-so-hidden signals so you make more informed decisions about how you drive, when to perform maintenance, and when repairs might be due. Learning to tune into your indicators will give you the opportunity to tweak and adjust your habits and approaches to health, whatever they may be, before the "car" ends up on the side of the road with the muffler tumbling down the highway a mile back. This book is different from any other health book you've read. It does not provide static protocols or step-by-step instructions that are meant to lead to a specific end point, because only you know what works best for you. Instead, it describes a new way of interacting with the dynamic and ever-changing landscape of your personal health. While all humans have some commonalities, each of us expresses our health in ways that are unique to our genetics, upbringing, personal history, physical environment, and culture. This complex cocktail of ingredients makes us who and what we are as individuals, and that customized blend shapes our health and performance. In this book, you will: Examine how and why people tend to ignore important health indicators until it's too lateLearn to think critically about your own health perception and how to calibrate that perception using objective toolsBuild a dashboard of reliable indicators so you have access to information about your personal health and performance and what might be in need of your attentionLearn how to select the right tools and protocols for your performance longevity toolkit Check Engine Light is about creating a plan to tune your body to go the distance, at peak performance. It comes complete with a self-guided workbook and case studies from elite athletes and warfighters that will inspire you to hop back in the driver's seat of your own health with confidence and clarity.

Choose Your Age
In this groundbreaking manual for longevity, leading longevity expert Jean-Marc Lemaitre reveals how the latest science can help you measure, slow, and even reverse biological aging at a cellular level. For generations, we've accepted aging as an inevitable decline, measuring our years by birthdays while ignoring the more crucial metric--our biological age. Traditional medicine continues to treat the symptoms of age-related diseases rather than addressing their root cause: cellular aging itself. Too often, healthcare systems intervene only after disease has taken hold, managing decline rather than preventing it. In Choose Your Age, Jean-Marc Lemaitre--a renowned biogerontologist (a scientist of biological aging and age-related diseases)--presents a revolutionary alternative: a personalized, proactive approach to longevity that targets the fundamental mechanisms of aging before disease begins. This is not speculation or trendy "biohacking"--it's cutting-edge science: a comprehensive, evidence-based strategy for extending not just lifespan but healthspan, the years you spend free from disease and decline. Lemaitre's approach isn't prescriptive but educational, empowering you to understand the science of aging so you can make informed decisions about your health journey. In Choose Your Age, readers will discover: Why your chronological age is often misleading, and how new biological clocks can measure your true physiological age--revealing whether you're aging faster or slower than your peers.How telomeres, the protective caps on your chromosomes, influence aging, and what practical steps can help maintain their length and integrity.The revolutionary science of epigenetic reprogramming that could transform medicine's approach to aging by actually reversing cellular age.Why the Mediterranean diet and specific fasting protocols can dramatically impact longevity, and how to adapt these approaches to your unique biochemistry.How the lifestyles of centenarians in the world's "Blue Zones" offer practical insights for extending your own healthspan.The emerging potential of senolytic therapies, metformin, and rapamycin in targeting senescent "zombie cells" that accelerate aging.Why social connections, optimism, and time in nature are as crucial to longevity as any medical intervention--and how to incorporate them into your life.Choose Your Age provides a new paradigm for thinking about aging, transforming it from an inevitable decline into a manageable process that you can influence at every stage of life. With this roadmap in hand, you can chart a different course for your future--one where each decade brings not just more years, but better ones.

The Hunger Code
THE SEQUEL TO THE MULTI-MILLION COPY BESTSELLER THE OBESITY CODE BY ACCLAIMED NEPHROLOGIST AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR, JASON FUNG, MD "Jason Fung nails it again in The Hunger Code. This book clearly and compellingly explains why most Americans are overweight and gives us a concise, evidence-based way to manage our weight with as little hunger as possible."-Dan Buettner, New York Times bestselling author of The Blue Zones The Obesity Code helped thousands of people lose weight naturally. The Hunger Code will help thousands more lose weight--and keep it off--in an era of weight-loss drugs and ultra-processed foods...without counting calories. For generations, we've accepted the story that weight loss can never last--that as soon as we go off the diet or stop taking the medication, we revert to our old habits, regain the weight, and the calorie-counting journey starts all over again. Traditional medicine continues to treat the symptom of weight gain rather than addressing its root causes. Too often, healthcare systems intervene with quick fixes and short-term solutions, ignoring the factors that lead to sustainable weight loss that can last a lifetime. What if the secret to long-term weight maintenance and better health isn't just about what you eat--or even when you eat--but why you eat? With the food industry's reliance on ultra-processed foods and the popularity of Ozempic and Mounjaro, understanding the forces behind why we eat is more important than ever before. In The Hunger Code, New York Times bestselling author Dr. Jason Fung reveals the three powerful forces that drive us to eat: Physical HungerEmotional HungerSocial HungerDr. Fung also introduces the concept of the body's "fat thermostat"--a biological "set point" that regulates how much fat your body tries to maintain. Guided by hormones and metabolism, this internal system drives hunger and energy use, explaining why lasting weight loss requires more than just willpower ... With three Golden Rules and 50 actionable tips, The Hunger Code empowers you to recognize and respond to hunger appropriately. Learn how to slow digestion, break emotional eating cycles, and overcome social pressures to eat constantly, so you can maintain a healthy weight--from scratch, after fasting, or after using weight-loss drugs.

Curb Your Appetite Naturally for Lasting Weight Loss
Grounded in academic research and real-world experience, this book is based on a Master's dissertation in Exercise and Nutrition Science from the University of Chester (UK), awarded with Distinction. The author also brings firsthand insight as a former project manager of a national weight management programme at the New Zealand Institute of Plant and Food Research, where she witnessed the everyday challenges of sustainable weight loss. Even with personalised, scientifically designed diets, only 1 in 5 participants managed to lose weight and keep it off during the monitoring period. The missing link? A deeper understanding of how appetite truly works-and how to influence it naturally. What if the secret to lasting weight loss was not stricter diets or stronger willpower-but simply learning how to work with your appetite, not against it?In a world of endless diets, countless diet tools and ever-changing nutrition advice, many people are left feeling frustrated and stuck. You are not alone. You are not lacking in discipline-and your body is not broken. On the contrary, it is brilliantly designed for survival.The challenge? Our biology evolved in a very different world-one where food was scarce and activity unavoidable. Today, our hardwired instincts to seek food, store energy, and resist weight loss have become daily obstacles, fuelling hunger, cravings, and rebound weight gain. This eBook reframes the conversation. It offers science-based, practical strategies that go beyond hype and restriction At the heart of this approach is satiety-the feeling of fullness and satisfaction that tells your body to stop eating. Satiety is not just about a stretched stomach. It involves a web of hormonal and neurological signals that regulate hunger and satisfaction. When you learn how to work with these natural cues, you can reduce intake without relying on willpower or going hungry. Inside, you will explore: The real reasons behind weight gainWhy your body resists weight loss-and how to overcome itHow appetite and satiety function at a physiological levelWhat research reveals about the power of preloading-eating small, specially formulated starters before meals to reduce overall intakeHow to craft your own satiety-boosting starters using simple, effective formulasPractical, flavourful recipes that help curb hunger and support sustainable weight loss-naturallyWhether your eating style is Mediterranean, low-carb, intermittent fasting, or something else, this method adapts to your needs. Recipes include both vegetarian and meat-based options, drawing from global cuisines while respecting your dietary needs and cultural preferences. No gimmicks. No deprivation. Just real science and real strategies for healthy, lasting results. Scroll up and click "Buy Now" to begin your journey-one satisfying starter at a time.

The Longevity Nutrient
Unlock the secret to longevity with Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson's "groundbreaking, once-in-a-century discovery" (Mark Hyman, MD, New York Times bestselling author) of the molecule C15:0--an essential fat found in whole milk, cheese, and fatty fish--that can improve your health and increase your lifespan. The hunt for the holy grail of healthy aging has been ongoing for hundreds of years, and Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson may be its most unlikely champion. As a veterinary epidemiologist, she was recruited by the US Navy to lead a clinical research program to continually improve the health of Navy dolphins. Using advanced biotechnology to study the healthiest aging dolphins, she discovered C15:0, a saturated fat which has the potential to expand both the health-span and lifespan in long-lived mammals. In The Longevity Nutrient, Dr. Venn-Watson unveils the science behind C15:0, the first essential fatty acid to be discovered in nearly a hundred years. This revolutionary discovery identifies the crucial ingredient for combating chronic aging-associated diseases. This book unfolds like a detective story, bringing you along through the science and discovery of this extraordinary nutrient. The implications of adding this nutrient back into the American diet could not be more significant. Mounting scientific evidence supports that C15:0 can: - Reduce the risk of and reverse fatty liver disease. - Reduce the risk of and reverse type 2 diabetes and heart disease. - Meaningfully slow the effects of aging to improve overall well-being. Perhaps the most surprising discovery? In the end, it may just be the saturated fat that saves us all. In this "life-changing" (Thomas DeLauer, author of Intermittent Fasting Made Easy) book, Dr. Venn-Watson tells the extraordinary story of this discovery and examines the paradigm shifting implications for human health and aging. She presents the easy, practical steps for you to responsibly bring this essential C15:0 fat into your life to improve your long-term health and wellness.
