How old are you now? Want to look younger, live longer, and feel better?

Enter The Age-Free Zone

With his #1 New York Times bestseller The Zone, Dr. Sears began revolutionizing nutritional thinking in America. Now, his cutting-edge hormonal-control research is elevated to a new level that promises to change forever how we look at aging.

No one wants to get old or show the signs of age. In fact, for centuries many have searched for, and often promised, the fountain of youth. So what makes The Age-Free Zone different?

In this new, breakthrough book. Dr. Sears goes beyond looking at food as simply a source of calories and explains the incredibly powerful biological effects it has on your hormones. From this unique perspective, food is more than a source of sustenance; it becomes the most powerful drug known to man. More important, it is the only drug proven to reverse the aging process. In addition to unraveling the mysteries of your hormones and their role in aging, Dr. Sears reveals the essential dietary information you need to start your own age-reversal journey. Using his simple and easy-to-follow program, you will be able to live longer and live better beginning with your very next meal.

As Dr. Sears explains, the aging process isn't caused as much by the depletion or lack of hormones as we get older, but rather by their impaired ability to communicate with each other. Little-known "super-hormones" called eicosanoids can reestablish the critical communications links between your hormones, which is the key to age reversal. The brilliance of this anti-aging approach is that these exceptionally powerful super-hormones can be altered by the foods you eat, and, in particular, by the Zone Diet.

Your body is a vast, complex biological Internet whose hormonal communication can be orchestrated with great precision by the Zone Diet. Hormones from melatonin to serotonin, from estrogen to testosterone, from cortisol to DHEA, can all be controlled if you are willing to treat food with the same respect as you would any prescription drug. Ultimately, hormonal miscommunication is the underlying cause of many conditions associated with "getting older" such as insomnia, wrinkles, dry and dull skin, waning sex drive, depression, chronic pain, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Using The Age-Free Zone as your guide, you can look and feel better that you ever imagined.

Millions of people like you are now facing the hard realities involved with getting older. Dr. Sears separates the hormonal hype from reality and gives you the necessary tools to add years to your life and improve your appearance. The Age-Free Zone is your passport to a longer and better life.

Enter The Age-Free Zone...you have the power to reverse aging beginning with your next meal.

Ask yourself these life-changing questions:

• Why am I aging?
• Is it too late to reverse aging?
• What type of diet will increase my sexual energy and desire?
• What is my biological Internet?
• How do my hormones control aging?
• Can I make my hormones communicate more effectively?
• Do high-carbohydrate diets accelerate aging?
• How does stress reduce brain longevity?
• What are passing grades on my Anti-Aging Report Card?

Begin you Anti-Aging lifestyle today!

The Age-Free Zone includes:

• A week of Anti-Aging Zone meals for males and females
• Anti-Aging Zone meals for the business traveler
• Anti-Aging Zone meals in fast-food restaurants
• A simple, at-home Anti-Aging Zone exercise program.

Dr. Sears revolutionized the field of diet and nutrition with The Zone, the landmark book that first looked at food from a hormonal perspective, rather than simply as a source of calories. Food, Sears revealed, is the most powerful drug known to man. Now, he takes his cutting-edge hormonal control technology to the next level, showing how it is clinically possible to actually reverse the aging process within six weeks -- simply by altering one's diet. Dr. Sears explains how the human body is a highly complex internet controlled by an array of hormones that regulate the aging process. By using the Zone diet, we can control those hormones. The benefits of being in The Age-Free Zone are the very benefits of youth: improved appearance, disease resistance, and increases in sex drives, vitality, and energy. With millions of "boomers" approaching late middle age, the timing could not be better for Dr. Sears's anti-aging revolution.

By Andrew Weil M.D.

How to Discover and Enhance Your Body's Natural Ability to Maintain and Heal Itself

Drawing on fascinating case histories from his own practice as well as medical techniques he has observed in his travels around the world, Dr. Weil shows how the mechanisms of self-diagnosis and self-regeneration have worked to resolve life-threatening diseases, severe trauma, and chronic pain. But spontaneous healing is also the essential element in the maintenance of our basic daily health. The book outlines an eight-week program that each of us can use to alter our diet, avoid environmental toxins, and reduce stress in order to enhance our innate healing powers.

The best medicine does not merely combat germs or suppress symptoms, but rather works hand in hand with the body's natural defenses to manage illness. Building on this fundamental truth and tapping into the intricate interaction of mind and body, Dr. Weil arrives at a major new synthesis of conventional and alternative medical treatments. At once practical and inspirational, Spontaneous Healing gives each one of us the power and the wisdom to draw on the sources of health we hold within.

Andrew Weil is Associate Director of the Division of Social Perspectives in Medicine at the College of Medicine, University of Arizona. He teaches in the areas of alternative medicine, mind/body interactions and medical botany. Dr. Weil conducts a general practice in Tucson, Arizona, focusing on natural and preventative medicine Previously he worked for the National Institute of Mental Health, served on the research staff of The Harvard Botanical Museum and advised Congress on alternative cancer therapies. His articles have appeared in national publications including the New York Times Magazine, Nature and The New England Journal of Medicine. He lectures often and appears regular on national television and radio shows.
