About this ebook

High Health is a sensible, surprisingly simple solution for everyone, including over-the-hill adults and seniors who have a desire to retake the summit! High Health is not a diet -- it is calorie-smart regenerative nutrition coupled with effective low-impact exercises designed to slow the age clock and recharge the engine. It begins with an oil change from hydrogenated chemically processed oils to Omega 3 essential fatty acids. Nutrient-dense whole foods, oxygenation, and hydration techniques balance out a practical program which is adaptable to any fitness level. The High Health solution is the-how-to-live-long-and-die-young solution. A plan for the achievement of the best possible health through sound nutrition, exercise, hydration, oxygenation, and supplementation.

    Foreword

    Never in the history of mankind has society been so vitally concerned with nutrition and exercise. I have spent an adult lifetime as an athletic coach and a classroom teacher, and have during that time become acquainted with literally hundreds of diets and conditioning programs. I therefore feel qualified to convey to you my impressions of Chris Apostol's nutritionally sound, yet exciting, High Health program.
