Using ancient wisdom from Master Physicians, the author offers new ways to lose weight and keep it off.

"In his own personal weight-loss struggle, David Zulberg turned to the forgotten wisdom of the ancients -- Maimonides, Aristotle, Hippocrates, Galen, and even Benjamin Franklin -- to find consensus on ideal nutrition for optimum physical and emotional health. Zulberg distilled the teachings of humanity's greatest doctors and philosophers -- what he calls the Master Physicians -- and discovered something amazing: Ancient doctors already knew what today's medical findings are rediscovering about what's best for human health, weight loss, disease prevention, and psychological well-being. On this plan, you'll harness the best of both worlds -- the ancient and the modern -- for long-term success. The ancient understanding of health and its application to our lives in the 21st century with its supersize proportions. There are no forbidden foods or food groups, and you can even enjoy a glass of wine with dinner. Zulberg integrates the spiritual, emotional, and physical components of health and weight loss. Habit changes are at the core of the program. With an easy five-step plan, Zulberg tells readers how to incorporate one habit each week for 5 weeks to achieve a healthier life"--Provided by publisher.
