Product Description

Life-Altering Secrets from Today’s Cutting-Edge Doctors and the #1 New York Times Bestselling Author of Ageless

Today’s most trusted advocate of anti­aging medicine, Suzanne Somers, deepens her commitment to helping people lead healthier, happier lives by opening their eyes to cutting-edge, proven remedies and preventative care that most doctors just aren’t talking about with patients: longevity medicine and the more progressive study of bioidentical hormones.

As we age, certain hormones diminish, creating an imbalance that can set off everything from perimenopause to cancer, beginning as early as our thirties. This hormonal imbalance is causing many to feel depressed, anxious, fatigued, sexless, sleepless, and ultimately ill, sometimes even terminally. What’s more, Somers and twenty doctors in the field of antiaging medicine argue that the processed chemicals in foods and pharmaceuticals we ply ourselves with are actually slowly eroding our bodies and minds. So we’re getting slammed twice. From estrogen dominance to deceptive thyroid problems, people are suffering, and most don’t have access to the treatment they truly need to get better and thrive . . . until now.

Breakthrough explores cutting-edge science and delivers smart, proactive advice on the newest treatments for breakthrough health and longevity.

In addition to being a pioneer in a rapidly growing health field, Somers is a passionate, caring individual whose own life was derailed by disease and brought back to unimaginable, feel good heights that she wants you, too, to experience.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great but Expensive Advice, Jan 8 2009

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Breakthrough: Eight Steps to Wellness (Hardcover)
I have seen Susanne on a TV program recently and this lady really knows what she is talking about. It is not just unsubstantiated fluff, like in case of some other authors. When you listen to her and when you watch her, you see that she is real, that she knows her stuff, and that she is actually living it. So, when Suzanne tells me that we are able to live past 100 years in a good health it does get my attention. However, to achieve that we do need to take our health seriously and be proactive.

In "Brakthrough: Eight Steps to Wellness" Suzanne talks about a better life, a healthier life, and a life of youthful energy. Not only she explores the newest developments in the science of longevity and anti-aging but she also gives specific advice of what we need to do to attain our longevity goals. These are the secret of youthfulness that everyone can achieve. Suzanne's "approach to health gives you back your lean body, shining hair, and thick skin", as long as you watch your nutrition, exercise, and live in a toxic-free environment.

However I have to take one star off for THE COST OF IT! Although her general attitude seems to be against the mainstream medical community, a lot of the remedies that Suzanne offers are very expensive. It is true that we might extend our lives to over 100 but we will also not be able to retire until after late nineties to be able to afford the exact modus operandi that Suzanne does in her own health care. Therefore for anyone with a lower income I highly recommend Can We Live 150 for much more affordable alternatives to Suzanne's approach. The author is a former head of Center for Health Sciences in Moscow and his books are filled with great advice for living healthy live, proper combining of foods, detoxification, correcting spine problems, and much more. The important thing is that his remedies are based on ingredients readily available in most common households. Another great reading is Cure the Incurable

5.0 out of 5 stars Live Long and Healthy, Sep 10 2008
By 
This review is from: Breakthrough: Eight Steps to Wellness (Hardcover)
In Breakthrough: 8 Steps to Wellness, by Suzanne Somers, she outlines how we can live healthy lives past the age 100. The basics include eating healthy (organic when possible) food, avoiding pharmaceuticals (except for pain, infection, mental illness or if absolutely necessary,) and avoiding toxins in the home and environment.

She also advises the use of what she calls "breakthrough medicine"--Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy: "to remain youthful, healthy and energetic."

Somers herself had breast cancer and she takes her own health seriously. Her message is that we must take charge of our own health and be proactive.

The book is presented with alternative doctor's interviews between the 8 chapters on the steps to wellness.

The 8 Steps:

* Get BHRT
* Avoid chemicals and detoxify your body
* Take nutrition seriously
* Care for your GI tract
* Avoid pharmaceuticals unless absolutely necessary
* Supplement your diet
* Exercise regularly
* Get proper sleep

Somers includes a chapter on her regime, which includes self-administrating vitamin shots, in-home yoga teacher, liver rubs and more. A little intimidating, but hey--she's had cancer and is a celebrity!

I really enjoyed this book and felt it has plenty to offer, especially for middle-aged people and older who need hormone replacement therapy.

I agree about what she writes about eating natural and organic food, but more could be said on the subject. I recommend Michael Pollan's IN DEFENSE OF FOOD to suppliment Breathrough.

I also agree with Somers that a toxic-free environment is imperative to good health. She writes about using non-toxic household cleaners, air quality and filtering water. There is much more great advice on detoxifying your home in the award winning book, HARMONIOUS ENVIRONMENT: BEAUTIFY, DETOXIFY & ENERGIZE YOUR LIFE, YOUR HOME & YOUR PLANET.

For some, the advice from the doctors might seem far out or strange, but alternative medicine has been practiced in Europe for over 50 years with great success. Read this book and decide for yourself--but at least, educate yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Breakthrough, Feb 12 2012
As any 45 years old woman, i was concern with the decline of my body. Menopause is creeping up on me and I had no clue what to do and where to start to minimize the decline of my health. This book was a great help and very informative on ways to handle this situation. I already started the process of hormone testing through references found in this book. I'm looking foreward to regain my good night sleep and my once invincible energy.
