Description
This epidemic is not of an acute infectious type, but of a chronic, degenerative nature that plagues more and more of us each day. This epidemic grows steadily and influences every aspect of our health. Obesity is the epidemic that impacts nearly all of the major threats to our health. As a nation and a world, we are gaining stubborn weight that stays around and often refuses to go. Obesity itself is a risk factor in nearly every chronic illness that looms on the horizon. This collective weight is the price we pay for our modern lifestyles. Excess weight is a natural consequence of the habits we have developed as part of our current way-of-life. You cannot separate the consequence from the action. It is time to discuss the actions that are steadily increasing our weight and decreasing our ability to live as we would choose to live.
Isabel Dehakiz –
I’ve always been drawn to motivational and inspiring books—ones that shift my mindset, create space for reflection, and help me grow. But while reading Dr. Karen’s Is Your Lifestyle Killing You?, I experienced something deeper: a transformation already beginning before I even finished the book.
I consider myself a mindful, healthy, and active individual. As a professional football player, taking care of my body is part of the job. Yet this book expanded my understanding in a way I didn’t expect. From the connection between the brain and hormones, to the impact of sugar and carbohydrates, to the true importance of recovery—it reshaped how I think about what it really means to live a healthy lifestyle.
Is Your Lifestyle Killing You? doesn’t just inspire—it provides the awareness and tools to turn a healthy mindset into a sustainable, intentional way of life.
