Synopsis
This entertaining, user-friendly, and information-packed guide to healthy living is by two doctors who are experienced household names in the health book field: Mehmet Oz, cardiologist and author of HEALING FROM THE HEART, and David Roizen, who is known for the RealAge diet books. The doctors begin with a self-test on the body and how it works--and chances are the results will underscore the old idea that true knowledge begins with the realization that we do not know. Using sidebars, illustrations, and a humorous bedside tone, this very rich tome explains how the various systems of the body function--and what can go wrong with the brain, the heart, the lungs, the digestive system, etc. The ultimate goal here is longevity. By turning knowledge into action, we are stimulated to live better and longer through diet and exercise based on this greater knowledge of our bodies and ourselves. The book includes a section with recipe and food plans. Readers of YOU will place importance on the "me" in their lives, making this a keeper that can go on the home reference shelf.

Publisher's Note

Between your full-length mirror and high-school biology class, you probably think you know a lot about the human body. While it's true that we live in an age when we're as obsessed with our bodies as we are with celebrity hairstyles, the reality is that most of us know very little about what chugs, churns, and thumps throughout this miraculous, scientific, and artistic system of anatomy. Yes, you've owned your skin-covered shell for decades, but you probably know more about your cell-phone plan than you do about your own body. When it comes to your longevity and quality of life, understanding your internal systems gives you the power, authority, and ability to live a healthier, younger, and better life.

You: The Owner's Manual challenges your preconceived notions about how the human body works and ages, then takes you on a tour through all of the highways, back roads, and landmarks inside of you. After taking a quiz that tests your body of knowledge, you'll learn about all of your blood-pumping, food-digesting, and keys-remembering systems and organs.

Just as important, you'll get the facts and advice you need to keep your body running long and strong. You'll find out how diseases start and how they affect your body -- as well as advice on how to prevent and beat conditions that threaten your quality of life. Complete with exercise tips, nutritional guidelines, simple lifestyle changes, and alternative approaches, You: The Owner's Manual gives you an easy, comprehensive, and life-changing how-to plan for fending off the gremlins of aging. To top it off, you'll also get the great-tasting and calorie-saving Owner's Manual Diet -- a thirty-recipe eating plan that's designed with only one goal in mind: to help you live a younger life.

Welcome to your body. Why don't you come on in and take a look around?
