Four Pillar Plan

Description

In The Power of Balance, Dr Rangan Chatterjee presents us with an incredibly simple framework for taking control of our health. He divides health into four pillars- diet, rest, sleep and movement. By making small, easily achievable changes in each of these key areas you can find and maintain good health - and avoid illness. You don't need to excel at any one pillar; what matters is the balance across all the things you do, from-

- Having an electronic 'sabbath' once a week
- Aiming for 12 hours every day without food
- Exposing yourself to sunlight first thing each morning

Based on cutting edge research and his own experience as a GP, and featuring fascinating case studies from real patients, The Power of Balanceis an inspiring, easy-to-follow and practical guide to good health.
