About this listen
Twelve years ago, renowned physician and author Dr. William Sears was diagnosed with cancer. He, like so many people, wanted - and needed - to take control of his health. Dr. Sears created a comprehensive, science based head-to-toe program for living a long, fit life - and it worked.
Now at the peak of health, Dr. Sears shares his program in Prime-Time Health. This engaging and deeply informative book will motivate listeners to make crucial behavior and lifestyle changes. Dr. Sears explores how to keep each body system healthy and delay those usual age-related changes. In Dr. Sears's wise, accessible, and entertaining voice, Prime-Time Health is a practical program to help you live your best life possible - pain-free, disease-free, stress-free, and medication-free.

The benefits of restrictive diets like paleo and keto have been touted for more than a decade, but as renowned gastroenterologist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, or "Dr. B", illuminates in this groundbreaking audiobook, the explosion of studies on the microbiome makes it abundantly clear that elimination diets are in fact hazardous to our health. What studies clearly now show - and what Dr. B preaches with his patients - is that gut health is the key to boosting our metabolism, balancing our hormones, and taming the inflammation that causes a host of diseases.

In the late 1970s when the government mandated we get the fat out of our food, the food industry responded by pouring more sugar in. The result has been a perfect storm, disastrously altering our biochemistry and driving our eating habits out of our control. To help us lose weight and recover our health, Robert Lustig presents personal strategies to readjust the key hormones that regulate hunger, reward, and stress; and societal strategies to improve the health of the next generation.

Critic reviews
"Amusing, encouraging, and easy-to-remember prescriptive mnemonics and slogans enliven a lucid, personal and professional narrative. Sears provides what similar books often lack - an honest and trusted voice plus the latest medical science in a comprehensive, accessible program that is hard to resist." (Publishers Weekly)
"In his usual science-made-simple style, Dr. Sears shows how your body can make its own internal medicines to act like a fountain of youth. I enjoyed reading Prime-Time Health from cover to cover. I recommend you read it, and then do it." (Dr. Louis J. Ignarro, Nobel Laureate in Medicine and author of No More Heart Disease)
"The book breaks everything down into quick, manageable bites that are easy to swallow and follow, and it's full of good, hearty advice." (Washington Examiner)

The speaker does a terrible job
The man reading this book does not know how to read a book that contains informational inserts within the chapters. I am currently reading the paperback version as well as listening to the audio version so I see exactly what he does wrong. When he is reading along a paragraph and comes to an insert, he does not finish the current paragraph but jumps to read the insert and then goes back into the paragraph. So if you are just listening to the audiobook (as I was originally) you be totally confused.
