Eating to relieve spent : A personal note from Janice -- Foods for renewal -- Recipes for renewal.;Fatigue, unexplained back and joint pain, distractibility, irritability, insomnia, and digestive problems leave many of us feeling spent--and there is no pill. This profound feeling of general unwellness is not part of the normal aging process. Here, Dr. Lipman offers a solution to combat the syndrome he calls Spent. He identifies the things in modern life that lead to energy depletion, and he creates "Daily Beats," a series of simple actions--such as sleep, diet, exercise, nutrition, meditation, and relaxation--that readers can take to repair their stressed systems and nourish their bodies and minds. Anyone following his day-by-day program will feel energized, vibrant, and younger. With a nutrition plan with recipes, photographs of research-based exercises and stretches, and wisdom from Dr. Lipman's thirty years of medical practice, Spent puts readers back in touch with their bodies' natural rhythms and introduces them to a lifetime of good health.--From publisher description.
