Product Description
For many, losing weight is a never-ending struggle -- especially since our bodies are designed to keep weight on at all costs; it's a matter of survival. But a medical revolution is under way, showing us how to work with our bodies instead of against them to ignite the natural fat-burning furnaces that lie dormant within us. Drawing on the cutting-edge science of nutrigenomics -- how food talks to our genes -- Dr. Mark Hyman has created a way of losing weight by eating the right foods, which in turn sends the right messages to our bodies. In this easy-to-follow eight-week plan based on each individual's unique genetic needs, Dr. Hyman explains how to customize your personal weight-loss program with menus, recipes, shopping lists, and recommendations for supplements and exercise. Ultimately, you will rebalance and stabilize your metabolism -- an UltraMetabolism -- to maintain weight loss and enjoy lifelong health.

The program includes menus, recipes, and shopping lists, as well as recommendations for supplements and exercise and lifestyle treatments designed to create a healthy metabolism -- an UltraMetabolism -- permanent weight loss, and lifelong health.

 Finally, Closer to the eating truth July 19, 2008
"Ultrametabolism" is by far one of the best books I have ever read on the subject of diet and its effect on your health. As a large endurance athlete struggling to lose a few pounds and keep up my stamina, this book has revealed the misconceptions of the typical low fat or low carb diet and throughly explained why the "calories in/ calories out" equation doesn't seem to work for many people. By learning why to eat whole non processed foods, my friends and I have all begun to shed unwanted pounds and become healthier and stronger in the process. Bravo to Dr. Hyman! Highly recommended and easy to put into action.

Outstanding analysis of our current diet situation in America. This book clearly explains and guides you to a new and healthy eating outlook. Worked very well for me.
Every little bit helps July 2, 2008
I bought this book and the related cookbook to help me lose the weight I gained while in a long-term relationship and it's really helping. I feel more energized and have the extra "zing" I need to do that cardio class and take those golf lessons. The food recipes are tasty too.
Good nutrition and health information, unspoiled by big food lobbies June 29, 2008
I lost 5 pounds in 5 weeks following this eating plan. I wasn't hungry very often. The recipes are wonderful, and I could eat this way forever.
On the "down" side, you'll have to shop and cook if you want to follow this way of eating. You may have to give away many of the products already in your pantry if you choose to continue this way of eating. I can't see why you wouldn't continue it if it works for you. A principle I garnered is "Eat Food, Not Products." Don't bother with this book unless you are ready to make a lifestyle change that includes shopping, cooking and meal planning.
I think it's a great book. I wish there were a vegetarian version. I have eaten vegetarian for many years, but made an exception to try this way of eating. So I'm actually moving on to other weight-loss approaches and returning to vegetarianism, while keeping a number of take-away messages from Ultrametabolism. UM is not incompatible with vegetarianism, but the recipes aren't there.
