0017703970Stunaan8419472114.0 Mark Sisson's 2009 release of The
Primal Blueprint was the catalyst for the primal/paleo/ancestral
health movement to gain mainstream awareness and acceptance. Both
the hardcover and paperback editions enjoyed a seven-year run at
the top of the primal/paleo charts and selling hundreds of
thousands of copies. Sisson, publisher of the acclaimed
MarksDailyApple.com, the acclaimed and most-visited primal/paleo
blog, has spent the past six years diligently researching and
evaluating recent the most up-to-date science and reflecting on
thousands of users' experiences going primal. The second edition of
The New Primal Blueprint offers a comprehensively revised,
expanded, and updated message from the original runaway bestseller.
The New Primal Blueprint serves as the ultimate road map for anyone
wishing to make the shift from flawed conventional wisdom about
diet and exercise to a healthy, happy empowering lifestyle
patterned after the evolutionary-tested behaviors of our
hunter-gatherer ancestors. The book details the ten immutable
Primal Blueprint lifestyle laws that enable empower you to
reprogram your genes to direct in the direction of weight loss,
health, and longevity. The Primal Blueprint laws are validated by
two million years of human evolution as well as an ever-expanding
body of contemporary scientific research. Sisson's philosophy was
originally met with skepticism as he aggressively challenged
numerous mainstream health tenets. Eight years later, mainstream
medical and health science are validating the Primal Blueprint
tenets assertions that a high-carb, grain-based diet will make you
fat, tired, and sick; that a consistent routine of
medium-to-difficult cardiovascular workouts can actually compromise
your health and longevity and increase risk of heart disease; and
that consuming (whole food sources of) fat and cholesterol does not
lead to heart disease as we have been led to believe, but rather
offers many health benefits. The New Primal Blueprint comes alive
with a vibrant full-color presentation packed with photos,
graphics, and cartoons to make for a fun, easy, and memorable read.
Join hundreds of thousands of primal enthusiasts and embrace a new
way of life where you take responsibility for your health, fitness,
and happiness. Reject once and for all the flawed conventional
wisdom that has left modern citizens struggling with fatigue,
excess body fat, and elevated disease risk factors as a consequence
of grain-based eating habits, exhausting exercise routines,
sedentary lifestyle patterns, and high-stress existences that
misdirect our genes and promote illness instead of wellness and
longevity. Here is a quick overview of the ten Primal Blueprint
laws that will help you quickly and effortlessly reprogram your
genes in the direction of health, happiness, and longevity: Law #1
- Eat Plants and Animals: Enjoy the nutritious, satisfying foods
that fueled two million years of human evolution. Law #2 - Avoid
Poisonous Things: Avoid toxic modern foods (primarily refined
vegetable oils, sugars, and grains) that make us fat, sick, and
malnourished. Law #3 - Move Frequently: Enhance fat metabolism,
improve cognitive function, and avoid the stress of chronic cardio
by keeping active with aerobic workouts at a comfortable heart
rate, increased everyday movement, and complementary
flexibility/mobility activities throughout your day. Law #4 - Lift
Heavy Things: Brief, intense sessions of functional, full-body
resistance exercises supports muscle development, increases bone
density, and prevents injury. Law #5 - Sprint Once in a While:
Occasional all-out sprints turbo-charge fat reduction and deliver a
boost of anti-aging hormones. Law #6 - Get Plenty of Sleep: Align
your sleep with your circadian rhythm by minimizing artificial
light and digital stimulation after dark, and creating a calm,
quiet, dark sleeping sanctuary. Optimal sleep promotes healthy
immune, brain, and endocrine function. Law #7 - Play: Balance the
stress of modern life with some unstructured, physical fun! Both
brief breaks and grand outings are essential to nurture a
cognitively fluid mind and a free spirit. Law #8 - Get Plenty of
Sunlight: Expose large skin surface areas frequently to optimize
vitamin D production (increases energy, prevents cancer). Maintain
a slight tan, but never burn. Diet alone doesn't cut it. Law #9 -
Avoid Stupid Mistakes: Learn to be mindful and vigilant against
dangers, both extreme and routine. Cultivate risk management skills
to stay safe and sensible and eliminate "avoidable suffering." Law
#10 - Use Your Brain: Engage in creative and stimulating activities
away from your core daily responsibilities. This will keep you
refreshed, energized, creative, and productive in everything you
do.
