Publisher Marketing: The Harvard-educated physician and "New York Times "bestselling author of "The Hormone Cure" shows you how to grow new receptors for your body s seven metabolic hormones, helping you lose weight and feel great fast!When it comes to weight loss, most people don t think about hormones. But when you develop a resistance to your seven major metabolic hormones cortisol, thyroid, testosterone, growth hormone, leptin, insulin, and estrogen your body adjusts by increasingly raising your hormone levels and ultimately slowing down your metabolism and a slower metabolism leads to weight gain and difficulty losing weight. The solution, Dr. Sara Gottfried contends, is to reset the efficiency of your hormones by repairing and growing new hormone receptors. Based on leading scientific research, "The Hormone Reset Diet "is a proven weight loss and energy program designed to reverse hormone resistance in just three weeks. It will help youboost your metabolism and ability to burn calories by growing new thyroid receptors, improve your ability to lose weight by rebalancing estrogen and progesterone receptors, andreverse your aging by resetting glucocorticoid receptors (for better processing of cortisol). For the last twenty years, this Harvard-educated physician has helped thousands of women address the root hormonal causes of what bothers them most: excess weight, lack of energy, aging, and illness. Going beyond her bestselling "The Hormone Cure," this program is the next generation of her deep understanding of hormonal optimization for rapid weight loss."
