Many men are entering middle-age overweight and out of shape, with increasing sugar intolerance (pre-diabetes), hypertension, lacking energy and drive and experiencing falling libido. Men have a choice to make: continue their current lifestyle with those extra pounds and decreased energy or choose to reinvent themselves – to become a 'WellMan' full of renewed energy and passion, with a greater sense of well-being. The key to successful aging is the control of hidden or 'silent' inflammation. Some inflammation is beneficial, serving to immobilise an area of injury as the immune system responds. But silent inflammation has a more insidious nature – it's a chronic, systemic inflammation that goes on inside the body year after year. Researchers now recognise that silent inflammation is responsible for most chronic diseases, including heart disease, Alzheimer's and cancer. In fact, it is now understood as the primary cause of aging itself. The powerful integral health programme outlined in this book provides a comprehensive way of controlling silent inflammation so that each man can optimise his health.
