Riassunto

Live Better, Not Harder

-          Sleep controls the hormones that regulate hunger and appetite

-          An hour of exercise can turn a B grade into an A

-          Muscular meditation helps reduce stress and decrease symptoms of depression and anxiety

-          Watermelon decreases muscle soreness after a workout

Sleep better and you’ll eat better. Eat better and you’ll move more. And if you move more, you’ll sleep better and ultimately think and feel better. This is the ripple effect of good health and high performance. And it’s also why you don’t have to make major changes or sacrifices in your life: with an improvement of just 1% in your sleeping, eating, exercising, or thinking habits, you’ll see dramatic results. With Greg’s easy-to-follow strategies and tips, you can harness the power of the ripple effect and start living better―not just for a few weeks or months, but for life.

Dalla quarta di copertina

How often do you reach for a quick fix when you haven’t slept well?

Feel foggy-headed after you’ve eaten?

Struggle with exercise?

The modern world has changed the way people eat, move, sleep, and think. Advances in science and medicine have camouf?laged the negative effects of a poor diet, a sedentary lifestyle, and a lack of sleep, helping us ignore how our bodies are designed and the powerful relationships between diet, exercise, sleep, and mental health.

With tremendous insight into the physiology of the human body, The Ripple Effect exposes exercise and diet myths and helps you kick-start a health and performance transformation. From optimizing your last hour before bed to maximizing your natural sleep cycle, Dr. Greg Wells outlines the simple keys to
sleeping more soundly and waking up refreshed, and shows how you can fuel better whether you’re a busy mom or a high-performance athlete. The Ripple Effect also includes ways you can exercise more effectively and painlessly, ward off illness, and think more clearly.

Good health can be as natural as breathing. We must all eat, move, sleep, and think. If we do them well, we are capable of extraordinary things.
