Book Description

Dr. Judith Reichman, the bestselling author of I'm Too Young to Get Old and I'm Not in the Mood and the nationally recognized medical correspondent on women's health for the Today show, explains exactly how we age and what we can do to slow down the process.

Written especially for women in their forties and fifties, Slow Your Clock Down shows them how to extend the minutes and hours of their bodies' internal and external clocks. While the aging process is inevitable, Dr. Judith Reichman argues that we can offset the effects of genetics by living better and healthier.

With the sharp, incisive voice that has made her one of the country's foremost commentators on health issues, Dr. Reichman addresses the effects of women's hormonal changes; offers a healthful antiaging diet, exercise plan, and skin care and vitamin regimen; and discusses how to look and feel younger mentally, emotionally, and physically. Slow Your Clock Down provides women with invaluable, medically based methods to help them maximize healthy living and minimize the negative effects of aging.

FROM THE PUBLISHER

As a practicing physician in Los Angeles, Dr. Reichman has followed and treated many women who, despite advancing years (and in LA, this is defined as anyone over the age of forty), continue to feel young, vital, creative and healthy. She has helped women overcome many of the gynecological problems related to hormonal changes and age. Dr. Reichman￯﾿ﾽs patients have fought and even thwarted heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, obesity and cancer. In her first bestselling book she voiced the Baby Boomer￯﾿ﾽs battle cry I￯﾿ﾽm Too Young to Get Old. She has continued to do so in her next two books: I￯﾿ﾽm Not in the Mood and Relax, This Won￯﾿ﾽt Hurt.
