The New York Times bestselling author of SuperLife and cohost with
Zac Efron of the hit Netflix series Down to Earth, Darin Olien
offers invaluable advice for addressing the health of our bodies
and the health of the planet by identifying common products and
behaviors that are harmful and providing alternatives that are
non-toxic and life-enhancing. Fatal conveniences are the toxic
products we routinely use and the unhealthy things we do that our
culture and corporations have made us believe are safe and
necessary for living well and efficiently. These things-from
deodorant, cosmetics, dental floss, and sunscreen to laundry
detergent, air fresheners, carpets, and crayons to candles, tea
bags, cell phones, and chewing gum-are ubiquitous in daily life . .
. and they are wreaking havoc on our health and our planet. The
environmental toxins found in these products create a cascade of
problems, including chemical sensitivities, auto-immune issues,
obesity, chronic health diseases, and more. Darin Olien has spent
most of his adult life obsessively researching these "conveniences"
and in this book, he raises our awareness of their dangers,
demolishes the myth that "if it's easy, it must also be good," and
gives us alternative choices to take control of our lives and our
health. Fatal Conveniences offers a fresh perspective and
achievable, small tweaks that will lead to big, life-enhancing
changes.
In this groundbreaking health and lifestyle guide, the superfoods
expert, nutritionist, and creator of Shakeology provides the key to
understanding and utilizing the five life forces-the sole factors
that determine whether or not we will be healthy, fit, and free of
illness. In Superlife, Darin Olien provides us with an entirely new
way of thinking about health and wellbeing by identifying what he
calls the life forces: Quality Nutrition, Hydration,
Detoxification, Oxygenation, and Alkalization. Olien demonstrates
in great detail how to maintain these processes, thereby allowing
our bodies to do the rest. He tells us how we can maintain healthy
weight, prevent even the most serious of diseases, and feel great.
He explains that all of this is possible without any of the
restrictive or gimmicky diet plans that never work in the long
term. Olien has traveled the world, exploring the health properties
of foods that have sustained indigenous cultures for centuries.
Putting his research into practice, he has created a unique and
proven formula for maximizing our bodies' potential. He also
includes a "How-to-eat" user's guide with a shopping list, advice
on "what to throw away," a guide to creating a healthy, balanced
diet plan, and advice on how to use supplements effectively.
Written in Olien's engaging conversational style, Superlife is a
one-of-a-kind comprehensive look at dieting and nutrition, a
timeless and essential guide to maintaining the human body and
maximizing its potential.
