Publisher's summary

New York Times Bestseller

Stop—and even reverse!—age-related weight gain and muscle loss with the first-ever weight-loss plan specifically designed to shrink your belly, extend your life, and create your healthiest self at mid-life and beyond.

You don’t have to gain weight as you age. That’s the simple yet revolutionary promise of The Whole Body Reset, which uncovers why standard diet and exercise advice stops working for us as we approach midlife—and reveals how simple changes to the way we eat can halt, and even reverse, age-related weight gain and muscle loss.

The Whole Body Reset presents stunning new evidence about the power of “protein timing” for people at midlife—research that blows away current government guidelines, refutes the myth of slowing metabolisms and “inevitable” weight gain, and changes the way people in their mid-40s and older should think about food. The Whole Body Reset explains in simple, inspiring terms exactly how our bodies change with age, and how eating to accommodate those changes can make us respond to exercise as if we were 20 to 30 years younger.

Developed by AARP, tested by a panel of more than 100 AARP employees, and approved by an international board of doctors, nutritionists, and fitness experts, The Whole Body Reset doesn’t use diet phases, eating windows, calorie restriction, or other trendy gimmicks. Its six simple secrets and scores of recipes are easy to follow, designed for real people living in the real world. A dining guide even shows how to follow this program in popular restaurants from McDonald’s to Starbucks to Olive Garden. And best of all: It works!

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

Great program. I have already lost weight without stress

Excellent book snd narrative. The only drawback is they constantly refer to “PDF” which I was never able to access.

Very clear, simple and easy to take in!

I enjoyed some of the new information geared toward age related muscle loss. Sometimes it felt redundant but generally, the information was useful and well presented.

Excellent health advice

I was pleasant surprised by how well researched and inspiring this audiobook is. Audiobook listeners also get a pdf download with worksheets, recipes and exercises. I’m enjoying the changes in my meals and believe the strength training routine (offered w different plan for different abilities) will getme to the point i need to be.

The PDF

How do I get this?? I just started this. Seems good, but the pdf he keeps referring to seems vital.

Uncomplicated and easy to establish

There is very little in this book that was unknown to me, however, what I didn't know, was the most crucial part!. I have always been slender but at 64 I am now struggling with a waist and stomach that is unflattering. I was able to start implementing the principles on day one because most of the "called" for foods were already in my home. In 1 week my energy has returned and I am capable of following this lifestyle absolutely anywhere. The parts that I think could have been left in the PDF is the reading off of what to eat and certain popular restaurants as I know that it would have been easy to read on my own at a later date. I applaud the authors for addressing the senior population and our specific needs. Thank you!

Okay reading

I liked the information about older people needing to add more protein to their diet to prevent muscle loss.

Great practical advice with outstanding steps to success!

Great book - brings focus on increasing protein and fiber, keeping sugar in check and encouraging sensible movement! My favorite chapter was Toss Out Your Old Diet Books - Whole Body Reset makes so much sense! Read it in a day!

Practical lifestyle change

This book reinforced and expanded on my personal opinions regarding healthy eating. I now understand more about how to best design my eating habits with facts to substantiate my choices. There’s so much to learn about eating healthy and this is a good start.

Life Changing

I've already started this program, and in one week I've lost 4 pounds with little or no hunger.

Good stuff!
