The Dragon's WayTo Natural, Healthy, Lasting Weight Loss
Here at last is the secret to taking off pounds and inches and keeping them off for life. Unlike popular "miracle" diet programs and products, The Dragon's Way addresses the root cause of your weight problems and offers a remarkable six-week program that shows you how to reach your optimum weight and stay there. The Dragon's Way is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theories that have been practiced for thousands of years. Today billions of people worldwide benefit from this medical system.

Great book:
This book offers knowledgeable information on how food and stress affect your health and ways you can help your body balance itself and heal itself as it is meant to do. I have found some interesting information as to how the Chinese view the body and how to keep it working the way it is suppose to. I definitely recommend this book to anyone that is frustrated with their current situation and are feeling hopeless. Also, some great recipes using foods that help heal the body!
A Natural Guide to Weight Loss that Lasts:
The book is about ancient Chinese medicine and ten simple Qigong energy movements. It is an excellent program and was recommended to me by my medical doctor (a general practioner). I have been practiciing the diet and exercise with outstanding results. I'm off of two medications and feel so much better. The service from Amazon was excellent - the book arrived when promised.
Basically a very low calorie, low glycemic diet with exercise:
I found this book interesting because I'm interested in TCM, but I don't think it contains too many real secrets to weight loss that you won't find in lot of other books. The basic diet is for six weeks to eat several pieces of fruit, several servings of vegetables and some walnuts, pine nuts of cashews each day and do qigong for exercise each day. Well, qigong burns up extra calories no matter what the specific exercises in this book are, and foodwise you would probably be taking in well under 1,000... more info
interesting and effective program:
Nan Lu's approach is an effective approach to overall health. The weight loss is useful, but incidental. Best used in combination with the video and CD to learn the qigong movements; they are available only from his foundation.
