Exercise and nutrition programs designed to achieve weight loss and improve health and fitness have received considerable attention in recent decades. Though a large number of books have been published on the subject, the vast majority of these books focus on the latest fad diet, usually alone or sometimes in combination with the latest fad exercise regimen, but they rarely provide scientific, evidence-based reasons for their use. Eat, Move, Sleep Repeat is very different. It provides a scientific evidence-based rationale for selecting certain diets and forms of physical activity that can help to achieve effective body fat and body weight loss; explains how to develop a personalized weight loss plan; gives guidelines for a healthy balanced diet; provides advice on how to improve sleep quality, avoid common illnesses, keep senses, and organs healthy and how much exercise is needed to get health benefits. Meant for every fitness goal, fitness level, and occupation, The Healthy Lifestyle Guidebook aims to provide a set of evidence-based guidelines on how to establish a healthy lifestyle that will promote better quality of life with reduced risk of chronic disease and extend longevity.
Reviews
This book is evidence based and delves into the scientific rationale behind various diets and exercise regimes for long term health whilst being easy to read and provides many examples of the ways to achieve that. It helps to debunk the myths over ways to improve your health and wellbeing or the latest so called fad diets. Anyone should read it from students, athletes and general population so that people can understand the importance of being healthy, reducing the risk of chronic diseases and increasing the quality of life that an individual can lead.
Inspiring and easy to read guidebook on everything you need to achieve optimal health, not just the absence and prevention of disease. You can expect nothing but the best from an author who’s made the history of sports nutrition and exercise immunology.
I recommend this book especially to those who feel lost in understanding what works and what actually does not when it comes to nutrition, lifestyle and physical exercise. It’s an all-in-one evidence-based guide that everyone should have at home.

Following his retirement in 2016 at the age of 60, he has turned his attention to how ordinary people can achieve optimal health and live healthier for longer.
