Publisher's summary

Does it feel as if you're fighting your body to lose even one pound or just to maintain your current weight? Respected health and wellness expert and best-selling author Jillian Michaels has been there, too. So she consulted top experts in the field of metabolism and discovered that she d inadvertently been abusing her endocrine system for years. After fixing her own metabolism, she decided to share what she learned by devising this simple, 3-phase plan that engages all the weight-loss hormones (including the friendly HGH, testosterone, DHEA; and the not-so-friendly: insulin, cortisol, and excess estrogen).

In Master Your Metabolism, discover how to:

• REMOVE anti-nutrients from your diet
• RESTORE foods that speak directly to fat-burning genes
• REBALANCE energy and your hormones for effortless weight loss

Michaels offers a wealth of information throughout, including: shopping lists and online shopping resources, hormone-trigger food charts, how to eat power nutrient foods on a budget, smart strategies for eating out, quick and easy recipes, as well as mini-programs for addressing PMS, andropause, metabolic syndrome, PCOS, and menopause.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Be warned: Organic and all natural really big

Is there anything you would change about this book?

I wish is was geared towards everyday people. All natural and all organic isn't easy when you have a tight budget and 7 people to think about....

What was most disappointing about Jillian Michaels and Mariska van Aalst ’s story?

It pushed the organic, grass fed, all natural.

Any additional comments?

It makes you think about what you are putting in your body through food, the ways it can effect your body.

life saving information

This is an awesome audiobook. The information presented is priceless. We all know what to eat to be healthy...whole grains, vegetables, lean meats, etc., but Jillian Michaels takes it to a whole new scientific level, explaining why we should eat these things...what the bad stuff does to our hormones and how that affects us overall. She then goes on to tell us what to eat. She tells what foods pack the most punch in regulating our metabolism, which will help us to lose weight and keep it off and stay young longer. It is a great book.

Good advice and info

Enjoyed the book, listened to it a couple times. I like her no BS approach and all of the info provided rings true. Recommend if you are looking for a an interesting listen to keep your goals on track, and maybe some new info too.

GREAT

Really good program with plenty of data to motivate you to commit to yhe change. good luck following your journey!

Overall good info, not realistic

Would you try another book from Jillian Michaels and Mariska van Aalst and/or the narrator?

I love Jillian and I know she's really smart, but no one could possibly follow this to a tee. I mean, how about just lets us know what we can do and eat and drink in life, it would be easier to understand. I'm tying to get into shape, but I'm tired of always hearing about the laundry list of things you "can't" or shouldn't have - what's left after that?!? Jillian still rocks and I'm a big fan of hers - just, lets be real ... it becomes where just leaving the house and taking a breath might make you sick or gain weight - geez!

If you’ve listened to books by Jillian Michaels and Mariska van Aalst before, how does this one compare?

Yes

Have you listened to any of the narrator’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, I think she's a great speaker

Do you think Master Your Metabolism needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

Yes, a follow up to what is allowed in life.

Any additional comments?

Still love ya, Jillian

Game changer

Loved this book. I have taken several notes as I listened. I'm starting today to focus on ME.

Mater Your Metabolism

When listening to the book the author indicates that for the audio book there should be a PDF document that is downloaded with this book that has lists and charts that the author refers to throughout the book. There is no PDF document within this downloadable book that I can locate.

hormones in the body

struggled to listen. I expected a diet ideas plan instead she discusses hormones it's not really interesting.

Didn't teach anything

This book was a waste of money. she doesn't teach anything about managing your metabolism and instead only talks about her career progression. I got nothing actionable from this audiobook.
