This book provides great information for those interested in getting back into shape, or for those who want to add something new to their existing exercise program. The information is provided in an easy to follow, step by step format. It is also unique due to the fact the book is written by a dietician and a physcial therapist. As a physical therapist myself, I was excited to see this unique colaboration. I will feel confident in providing this literature to my patients as an adjunct to therapy. Marco C. Physical Therapist
Great Job

This book is well done. Anti-Aging books come in all shapes and forms. This book gives excellent advice regarding this matter. The program presented is like a prescription (hence the title). You follow what is presented to you knowing there is science behind the advice. The book covers a very important area in modern medicine. The aging baby boomers who are beginning to retire. So many have neglected their physical health (and diet) for too long. The book offers a practical program for improving one's health no matter what age. The book does not offer to stop aging. No one can promise such an idea. The book will help you control how you feel as you age as well as what practical steps you can take as time goes by. The book is well illustrated. The book is written by well a known dietician and physical therapist. Reza Gorji, MD

I am a former exercise instructor with a nuitrition background. I wish I had a book like this years ago to recommend to my classes. It's everything a person needs to get started and keep focused on the road to good health. With my busy life I am glad to have this well written and easy to follow book. As a healthy eater, the recipes are well balanced and easy to follow.
Easy 8-week plan!

I bought this book and didn't know what to expect. I couldn't be more pleased! Although the excercises are for beginners, I make my excercises a little harder by using a higher resistance exercise band. The recipes have easy throw-together instructions and I like everything I've tried so far, especially the filo ricotta chips. I highly recommend this book! I also bought a copy for my parents who are both 70 and they love it too.
