Every day we’re bombarded with new rules on what we should or shouldn’t eat or drink, how much exercise to do, and how to stay healthy. No wonder we’re confused. Enter Myth-Busting Your Body. Using the latest scientific research, it reveals the truth behind the biggest “wellness” myths of our times. Find out why most vitamins are useless, juicing is just a fad, and clean eating can be dangerous. It also debunks scaremongering health headlines, such as “everyone should avoid gluten” and “don’t eat fats.” Enhanced with lively infographics and color illustrations, this book challenges everything you thought you knew, provides holistic insight into human biology and the complexities of the body, and gives scientifically proven guidance on how to make real positive changes.

Discover the new goals and new rules that are the route to a healthier, better looking and better functioning body. For life.
From Gwen Stefani and Cameron Diaz to Jennifer Aniston and Naomi Watts, a new breed of 40- and 50-plus women are redefining not just what an ageless body looks like, but what's entailed in achieving it. A dramatic shift in body expectations in the last few years means that, despite being plagued by a slowing metabolism and a naturally-occurring loss of muscle mass, pre- and post-menopausal women can realistically aim for the healthy, well-functioning body they crave as well as a physique that looks good with a flat stomach and sculpted arms.
Peta Bee and Dr Sarah Schenker are the living embodiment of this new breed of woman: both in their forties with children, both with hectic careers and social lives. And both with the same bodies they had in their 30s. What matters, they have discovered through self-experimentation and trawling the scientific literature, is how you go about holding back the years. And the rules - for both exercise and diet - have changed.
