*** 8 CDs *** Most of us believe that aging is accompanied by a sharp decline in our physical and mental abilities. We think getting older means getting sick.

Instead of masking symptoms, it’s a proven plan for identifying and eliminating the forces that cause more than 90 percent of today’s most common and devastating diseases. It’s a patient-centered plan that shows you how to create a lifetime of good health. In The Five Forces of Wellness: The Ultraprevention System for Living an Active, Age-Defying, Disease-Free Life, you’ll learn what’s best for your body. Among other things, you’ll determine How to prevent disease from ravaging your body, using the medically proven “remove, repair, and recharge” system. Which foods make you thrive and which make you sick. How you can decrease the activity of the genes that will create illness and increase the activity of the genes that will create wellness. Why you should NEVER go on a diet and how to lose weight without going on a diet. What kinds of vitamins you need and how much. Whether your body does better with vigorous exercise or more gentle exercise. How to identify and rid yourself of toxins that make you sick.

As we age, the body releases less and less Growth Hormone (GH). GH is secreted by the pituitary gland located in the center of the brain and is the primary hormone responsible for maintaining physical and mental health through tissue repair, healing, cell replacement, bone strength, brain function, enzyme production, integrity of the hair, nails and skin. To counteract the significant drop in GH production as we age, its essential that we look at ways to nutritionally support our body to naturally maximize its production of GH. Providing ingredients that act as releasing compounds appears to be the safest and best way to encourage your own body to produce and release its own hormones.
