You know how victims and perpetrators are identified by their DNA on TV shows like ''CSI'' and ''law & Order.'' Now, that same science can help you lead a longer, healthier life. DNA-deoxyribonulceic acid-is the chemical inside your cells that carries the genetic instructions that make you unique. Aging occurs in DNA as cells replicate themselves continually in a process similar to photocopying. As the normal functioning of our cells becomes less efficient over time due to environmental, lifetyle and hereditary factors, those cells produce less accurate copies, causing malfunctioning throughout the body that results in degenerative diseases and aging. Thanks to the latest advances in genetic science, you no longer have to be a victim of your genetic inheritance. Dr. Giampapa and other researchers have developed a new concept called Personal Genetic Health (PGH). This pioneering PGH Program is based on determining what's needed to promote each individual's health and longevity. By identifying the activity level of five key groups of health control genes and then influencing their favorabole expression with nutraceuticals, supplements, exercise, and lifestyle changes, you can increase your lifespan and decrease your risk of developing certain diseases. By addressing the causes of disease and aging-and actually reversing them-this new anti-aging frontier allows you to control your health and well-being. Now you have the proactive power to optimize the quality of your life.

It’s an Age of Abundance. No longer do humans struggle to meet their basic needs. Arguably, they live better than kings of old. But despite this, it’s the intelligence explosion that steals the limelight; technological innovations come so rapidly that they create a backlash. The risks to the new world order are just too great. And now there’s talk of both a nano man--comprised of a shape-shifting swarm of nanites--and a human with the god gene. Even with a planetary ubermind to keep things under control, fears are that one or another of them will be able to hack the ubermind. Have they done so already? And if so, how long after they settle their score with one another to see who's top dog before they're free to mess with the entire human race? For one woman and the two men that love her, these concerns are more than simply academic. You see, one of the three carries the god gene. Pick up a copy now to see if the very thing that truly makes us stronger--our relationships--survives the latest onslaught of a technology that hits like a tsunami wave. NOTE: CONCEIVED IN THE SPIRIT OF IAIN M. BANKS’ CULTURE SERIES, THE NOVELS IN THE AGE OF ABUNDANCE SERIES, LIKEWISE, ARE STAND-ALONE BOOKS THAT CAN BE READ IN ANY ORDER. THEY FEATURE DIFFERENT CASTS OF CHARACTERS. THE AGE OF ABUNDANCE IN WHICH THE STORIES ARE SET SPANS FROM THE NEAR FUTURE TO THE FAR FUTURE. IN THE EVENT ANY OF THE AGE OF ABUNDANCE NOVELS ARE SERIALIZED, THEN THE SAME CAST WOULD PREVAIL. I.E. THE GOD GENE 2.

Every day, researchers at top universities around the world are discovering new facts about how the right foods, supplements, and lifestyle practices can help prevent, manage, and sometimes reverse the symptoms of a wide range of health issues such as heart disease (walnuts), Type II diabetes (blueberry yogurt), mental acuity (cold water fish oils), and insomnia (tryptophan-containing foods). Natural remedies can also come in handy when it comes to motion sickness (a drop of peppermint oil on the tongue eases nausea), acne (try lavender oil for blemishes), and wrinkles (vitamin C builds collagen). The Complete Idiot's Guide to Natural Remediesis a complete reference book for readers who want scientifically researched recommendations for the best treatments for specific conditions presented in an easy-to-follow format. It covers myriad conditions-from the most serious ailments like heart disease, cancer, and diabetes to important issues like high cholesterol and blood pressure, sleep disorders, memory problems, allergies, PMS, migraines, and arthritis, to more common complaints like rashes, athletes' foot, and bug bites. For each condition, the book succinctly describes the problem and symptoms, explains the cause, and offers a variety of natural remedies for treatment based on the latest research studies, including diet and nutrition, nutritional supplements, herbs, traditional Chinese medicine, and a variety of alternative therapies.

This book examines the complex ways in which television articulates ideas about DNA in the early 21st century. Considering television’s distinct aesthetic and narrative forms, as well as its specific cultural roles, it identifies TV as a key site for the genetic imaginary. The book addresses the key themes of complexity and kinship, which function as nodes around which older essentialist notions about the human genome clash with newly emergent post-genomic sensibilities. Analysing a wide range of US and UK programmes, from science documentaries, science fiction serials and crime procedurals, to family history programmes, sitcoms and reality shows, Television and the Genetic Imaginary illustrates the extent to which molecular frameworks of understanding now permeate popular culture.

These factors include: * Body Fat Type * Metabolic Type * Behavioral Type; Under-Exercise or Over-Exerciser; Under-Eater or Over-Eater With this information your Body-Profile Type is determined, which is used to establish a personalized nutrition and exercise program. Other factors such as supplements and in certain cases, medication are also determined using this approach. The How-To is contained in this book. Today we understand that the treatment of obesity (excess body fat) has to be a tailored one for each individual. Since each individual's body composition, metabolism, hormonal balance, exercise capacity, and caloric intake is different. "Not everyone is obese or overweight the same way, and not everyone is obese or overweight for the same reason". This phrase explains why all "one-size-fits-all" low calorie diets and weight loss programs fail. They are "hit-and-miss" weight loss traps, and the majority of them promise quick weight loss results for most of the obese people who are looking for a quick fix. The end result of these weight loss books and diet programs is more obesity and frustration. Sounds familiar? More than 25 years of Dr. Karatoprak's hands on experience in weight loss and research has brought this book to you. As you go through his Body-Profile Type Approach in this book, and watch the free instructional videos, you will learn the essence of obesity and being overweight, and the proper treatment. You will see how important it is not to be on a low calorie diet, which can slow down your metabolism. You will understand how important it is to follow a diet and exercise program which is tailored for you, which will correct your hormonal imbalance, increase your metabolism, and improve your body composition for health and longevity. You will also discover how this book is important for your weight maintenance, to prevent weight gain.
